I have bought an old LG G2 F320L (android 5.0.1) it have been rooted, installed recovery. Everything is normal until I enter to recovery and swipe: davik cache, cache, internal SD. After reboot system, both navigator bar and notification bar are missed, I can still see all apps in my device. I can not enter to download mode (turn off the phone, press hold volume + and plugin usb caple) or recovery mode. Also, I can not connect to pc with MTP mode (pc notify is not driver for MTP mode). I tried a lots of method that I found out on google, but I not work. When using rebooter app to enter recovery mode, devices is stack at pop-up of reboot to recovery. I wonder whether my device is bricked or not. If it's not bricked, what can I do in this situation.
Thank eveyone in advanced.

Hi all.
I entered recovery mode (through the advanced reboot menu in CM, but that doesn't matter).
My power button doesn't work, and everything was fine without it until I entered recovery mode - now I can't exit it.
The problem is I can't select "reboot system now" from the recovery menu because power button is the selector (and as I said, it doesn't work) so I tried taking the battery out and then turning on but it enters recovery mode every time.
I didn't do anything through recovery mode so no harm was done to my working system.
Also, my PC doesn't recognize my phone when in recovery mode so I can't run adb commands. I don't know why - I have the latest usb drivers installed.
Is there any way to exit recovery mode without the power button?
Thanks a lot. :good:
Use touch CWM or Philz touch or TWRP
Ended up with fixing my power button.
Thanks any way.
By the way, discovered rainbow mode (volume down + up together) of CWM... pretty funny.
I have managed to "soft brick" my phone and I basically have bootloop where nothing except turning off from boot window is functional.
Volume Up/Down + Home + Power doesnt work. Aka recovery mode or neither Download mode.
At the moment I use ODIN program in computer.
The question is, that is there an alternative way to access in Download mode. I was told face to face that other devices have an schematic when/where cable and buttons should be pushed down.
At the moment I am waiting for JIG USB device that should allow bricked phone automatic access to Download mode. Then use ODIN to Flash ROM to reset everything.
Rooting was done by SuperSu program which also lead to brick after wrong update option. (Used HTC update)
Everything is OK.
The problem was that I was trying to go download and recovery mode after I had runned the system once before.
It should not be forgotten that button combination works only when everything starts from 0. Remove the battery and then press the buttons.
Hi.
I have a problem with my galaxy S2. I always had the CM 12.1 Nightly ROM on my device and always update it without any problems. After a SIM issue I reset default settings of my device and then update to the 12.1-20151230-NIGHTLY-i9100, I have Google Play but I can't log-in my Google account and also when I turn on the phone after resetting the parameters don't gave me the chance to get into my account. So I downloaded Gapps and put-it in the SD card but when i try to access to the recovery mode (Holding the power button and volume +) the phone just start normally but I want to enter to the recovery mode.
Here is a copy of a free app (available on playstore) that you can use to boot to recovery/download mode straight from the OS........no button combo needed...
The only prerequisite is a rooted device....

Just select the reboot option, and you will see 4 further options one of which is 'recovery'.......

I'm a bit stuck here, would appreciate some assistance.
I tried to root my device (UMI Plus) by yesterday using 'SP Flash tool' by flashing TWRP and then installing SuperSU. That went fine, but after booting my Google Play Services kept rebooting rendering the device unusable. In an attempt to fix this I tried a "Factory Reset" via the Android settings menu which I guess was a bad idea because it started auto booting into Recovery... At that point no matter what I did I ended up back in Recovery.. Reboot to system, factory data reset.. all rebooted the phone back into TWRP recovery.
So I thought I would just try putting the default recovery back on the device again but whenever I power off the device and connect it to my PC it boots into recovery.. The phone needs to be powered off for SP Flash Tools to work. Tried loading recovery image via fastboot but the volume rockers don't work in fastboot so I can't confirm the action.
After some digging I read online that holding down VolUp + Power can 'force' into preload mode, which seems to have some success. I can see the device boot into "Preloader mode" in device manager in Windows, but it loses connection after about 3 seconds. So I did that with my SP flash tool ready and it seems to have erased recovery mode. Oops! Now whenever I try to get into recovery it just says "No command". No combination of button pressing, button holding, button releasing or anything will change this (This is the only answer I could find on Google!). Neither fastboot or adb can see the device either. It shows up as "MTP USB device" in device manager in Windows...
Is it doomed? I can't figure out what to do next...
P.S. The full ROM is available here but in RAR format.. which seems strange to me...

How can i remove the factory mode on my device, which is not allowing me to enter recovery mode?
When i turn my device on and hold the volume up button, instead of booting to recovery mode, the device boots into factory mode (which has a chinese factory mode menu). Due to this i cannot enter recovery mode without plugging the device into the PC and then running adb/fastboot then booting to recovery mode. Hence should anything go wrong with my device and it doesnt boot fully, i will be stuck with no access to a recovery mode. (as i wouldnt be able to use adb to get to the recovery mode)
P.S ive tried all combinations of buttons (i.e holding volume down as well with the power button) and it still goes to factory mode rather than recovery mode.
It is a mediatek device, can i unpack and make changes to the boot.img/system.img and then repack them and flash it back onto the device to resolve the issue or is there another way where i can boot to recovery mode without having to load up adb/fastboot first?
