sorry if this post is redundant, but the methods i've seen haven't worked, so i can't be alone. Here is how to boot into twrp if your phone is boot looping/soft bricked. (info pulled from here, of all places.)

1. Make sure phone is completely powered down.
2. Press and hold the volume down button and the power button.
3. When the lg logo is displayed release the power button only then immediately press and hold the power button again.
4. Release both buttons when the factory hard reset screen displays.
5. Press the power button three times, like it says. even though it says it will delete everything, it won't (i can confirm that if you are at least on v2.6.3.2).
6. After a "factory reset processing" appears, you should get the twrp flash screen, and you are good to go.

Hope this helps someone besides currently frustrated me.

I Have been trying for 3 hours every possible combinarion WTF!! nothing works . I had to go to download mode and reflash KDZ original ROM
Now phone works , i can boot to recovery through an app , still no HardKey Combo. The benefit is to be able to boot to TWRP when phone doesn't boot
I am on 802 with latest D80220H ROM and latest Recovery TWRP 2.8.6.1 recovery
Any other ideas appreciated

Install autorec for your version of the G2. Download the app Quick Boot, it is a lightning bolt on a purple arrow/circle. Run Quick Boot and select recovery. Done, stick a fork in it.

The way that let me get into custom recovery is different.
I hold 'vol up+power+vol down' to start from turned off state and keep holding it[Don't leave just keep holding the 3 buttons]. It doesn't show factory reset screen, it get me into TWRP[Custom Rom] directly. I heard 3 buttons gets u in safe mode IDK but I got into proper working TWRP.

This one worked for me... Rooted 20h with TWRP on D805.

press and hold
PWR

till device shuts down

wait 10 seconds to make sure its powered off

press and hold
VOL- & PWR

when LG logo shows up release the buttons and imediatly

press and hold
VOL- & VOL+

This combination took me to factory reset, accepting it took me to TWRP

I had the same problem on Lg G3 s (d722). It turns out that if you follow your instructions and select factory reset it opens in twrp recovery.

Thanks.

    Another way to get to Custom Recovery

    steps to enter recovery that worked for my Sprint LG G2 on ZVC firmware.
    1) hold power and volume down button till you see LG logo -- quickly release these buttons and
    2) immediately hold power and volume up buttons to enter into factory reset menu.
    Then 3 presses of power key to confirm wipe and enter TWRP recovery. :good:

    I was going mad trying to enter recovery for an hour. It appears like different models/software versions have different key combinations for entering recovery mode.

    My phone was stuck at lg logo screen and i didnt have nandroid backup of the phone. so couldn't try the TOT restore method too as i waned my phone data.
