Is it possible to boot into the stock recovery on the T-Mobile G2? When I try the little green Android appears for a second and then the phone boots normally.

I rooted a friends phone and installed TWRP recovery for him. He decided that he wanted to take the OTA so I removed TWRP and installed the stock recovery image. After doing this the phone hasn't been able to find the OTA update. I was just wondering if I might not have gotten the stock recovery to install correctly. :confused:

If you could try goomanger and press boot to recovery or when phones off press volume down+ power and let go when lg logo appears to see

I don't think you can restore stock recovery....would have better luck flashing a ROM with the ota already or restore to stock then accept ota .....

Here's a stock ROM with ota, read the thread though for any problems or check out other Roms

That's a bummer. Thanks. I did try to press volume down and power, that is when the little green Android appeared for a second then the phone rebooted normally. Tried with ROM Toolbox Pro also.
