My D625 received an update, but it got stuck at reboot, and now I can't get out of it, does anybody know how to hard reset the D625 variant? The usual Power & Volume- don't work, nor any alternative or video I've already googled

Things I've tried already

-Power&Volume-
-Power&Volume-, then release and press Power
-Power&Volume-, then release and press Power Multiple times
-Power&Volume-, then wait two reboots and then release and press Power

if you're rooted or you have a recovery like twrp or cwm you should try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451696 (for me worked a few weeks ago) .but if you're not rooted or you don't have any custom recovery i think you have to go in download mode and flash your .kdz (here a easy giude http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2725028).
sorry for bad english

Yes, I was rooted, but did not modified the recovery (there isn't one for D625), will try that, but your link it's for G2, I'm talking G2 Mini Tegra version ,a very different phone.

EDIT: Nope, the devices is still locked in the update loop, don't appear to be recognized as hardware so no ADB ;_;

My rooted Antel LG G2 Mini get an update today too, but it get me an error while updating and the phone just start fine but it never get updated. So as I understand, we have here 3 cases, gipikay update and get boot loop, I update and get an error but still working and peloduro have the update without a problem. Anyway, Gipikay I don't have any solution for you, sorry. I only can tell you I rooted my phone with Towelroot V1.
Peloduro, what's new in the update?

In the end, the warranty gave me a new D625 already updated to the latest version, but will not use it for a couple of month, could not root it, and TBH it's the most difficult phone I had to work with. So back to Xperia Z 3G, that is until someone start to work for a foolproof root method, a clean rom, or Lollipop offical or not for D625
