(Above TWRP can be flashed with Flashify from Playstore)

Instructions from video:

With phone powered off, hold POWER and VOLUME DOWN buttons until LG logo shows. Release POWER then quickly press and hold again until factory reset menu comes up. Select YES and you will be booted into recovery instead of a factory reset ; )

Thanks @czarsuperstar!

Of course. You looked at the video?

 

[jaykoerner]

This the real deal?

I've used it and can confirm, first tested it with fastboot without flashing of course(use adb to get to the bootloader: adb reboot bootloader , then fastboot:fastboot boot "twrp.img file, tested then rebooted into bootloader, then flashed via fastboot:fastboot flash "twrp.img file") instructions are for any random person that come by i know you know how to do all this

what are the boardconfig.mk file contents that you used to compile this recovery?

the fact youre using a ghetto hacked twrp that works is fine, but id prefer an actual device specific twrp version that will reliably work - theres no telling what this twrp can do to your device, and the fact youre using another devices ramdisk scares the hell out of me.

ramdisks arent something you play around with - you can seriously ruin someones device like that.

also requesting the twrp fstab file youve used.

youre literally just throwing files at users that have perviously bricked their devices and not explaining in detail what they consist of.

if you seriously damage any of these user's device partitions by overwriting the wrong partition, are you going to pay for the devices when theyre hardbricked and no longer responsive to the oem flashing?

not once have a even seen a warning on these files yet youre just posting forum to forum; not to mention youre inexperienced at rom/kernel/recovery compiling for the fact you think its okay to just throw a different devices ramdisk in there " because it just works." when we have readily available source for our device.

legally- youre held responsible for these files youre distributing.

and to those just flashing this twrp file to their device, yes its reversible - but would you want to find out it doesnt work when its too late? IE backing up partitions in the wrong order, and restoring them into the wrong partitions? the video shows it backs up and restores, but is it doing so in the right order? in the right places. i may be ranting but id rather be careful/safe then sorry.

not one detail of this compile/build has been released, just a link that is claimed to work.


"left sock fits on right, doesnt feel right - but my feet aren't cold!" is how this feels to me.
i was sketched to even test this twrp version considering you need to tell the factory reset "yes, i want to wipe" twice, in order to boot to twrp.

idk about you but ive never seen any recovery warrant those options. normally twrp would just boot upon button combo - which is why im sharing this post. recoveries arent supposed to be functioning that way.

The first twrp was from a htc phone. This is from lg leon lte. Same manufacturer. I used my boot.img dumped on my sdcard and used the ramdisk from Twrp Leon aka c50 the leon twrp is missing the options seen on this one. Don't use it. But I'm working on cm_m1 so continue to use the old one and when your phone can't come on have fun getting in recovery. Make it better.

Check out the LG L70 it's the same way to get in recovery. This must be your first LG phone.

 

[NASSTYROME]

i dont care whether its the same way to enter recovery, my care is youre using another phone's ramdisk in this device.
"I used my boot.img dumped on my sdcard and used the ramdisk from Twrp Leon aka c50 the leon"

post twrp.fstab and boardconfig.mk youve used for this "twrp" build.
this must be your first posting for development on an unsupported device.

as for anyone using another device's files when we have access to source of our own device - i wouldnt trust them to build anything, let alone CM. thats just pure shortcutting and laziness .. and at what expense?


as for twrp making this official, they wont - as you cannot provide SOURCE.

So, now, hopefully you've compiled TWRP for your device and gotten it working. Now, you'd like to know how to get TWRP officially supported for your device so that it can be installed automatically with GooManager. In order for us to add "official support" for your device we'll need the following:
1) Device configuration files to compile TWRP from source for your device. This means that you cannot have repacked a recovery.img by hand to get it working. We need to be able to compile it from source so that we can easily release future updates.
2) A copy of a build prop for your device (it's in /system/build.prop) so that we can add the correct device information to GooManager
3) We'll build a copy of TWRP and send it to you for validation. Once you've validated that we can build a working image for your device, we'll add it to GooManager.

Go spam the other thread. Over 200 downloads and no problems but there was problems right away with the first version. For your info download Twrp c50 from the Twrp site examine it and ask why it's incomplete. That's why I linked the video of the Twrp from the site and same problems. Bye and leave me be. Hd2 check it out. Czarsuperstar's HTC HD2 android custom roms. Check it out and leave me alone. Thanks for your concern. Oh and for your info we have the same keyboard configuration as the LG Leon. There's a device tree. Google it. Google is your friend bro.

not saying a official twrp isn't preferable, but man you got to learn how to talk to people, you were just short of cursing the dude out, and as far as the recovery the thing is solid(tested backup, flash and restore/ anyhow we got LGUP if you **** up so its not a huge deal), but anyone on this site shouldn't take someones word for things like recovery's and you should always test boot before you flash, also you don't seem to understand the first rule of xda-whatever happens to your device is on you, been that way since the og day's- talking politely to others is the way to go about things, people wont listen if you combative.

Kernel

Im building the kernel from source right now check out the video on Twitter. Anyone that wants to join the development I am down with it.

 

[nsip4ever]

Didn't work, after selecting yes twice, my phone just starts like normal, doesn't go to TWRP or factory restore, it is there though because I can boot to it from the flashify app, ah well.

wait...my bad, I was highlighting the wrong one, lol, works great, thanks

 

[callihn]

Assuming it ever worked right it should work better now because you can always get to it.

As for concerns about the ramdisk I don't see any issues with that, it's just being used to boot and run recovery on if I'm not mistaken and apparently where the buttons get enabled so a necessity.

Considering many phones have such hacked together recoverys and many more have no custom recovery I'm thankful to have it particularly since most of my work is done away from my pc.

Thanks for report. The other Twrp w/o the button combo was from a HTC phone lol and I am getting blasted. HTC or LG? LG K7. ... LG.

Right and that's why the buttons didn't work. Great job! Best discovery yet for this phone, so happy that we can restore now withoit adb and withoit having to worry about debugging getting turn off, very essential find. Don't let those that don't understand get you down.

I'm working on building it from source but keep getting errors and I'm trying it with another device that has Twrp (Moto E 2015) and followed the directions to the T and no luck. So I am trying......... Will let everyone know how it's going.
