So, i had my phone off for awhile, and on my bed, i was using my sim to try to network unlock an old tablet. tablet wont unlock, so i go to put the SIM back in and reboot the phone, after 5 min i notice i am stuck in a bootloop. so ive tried using ADB to boot into recovery, and i cant....and ive tried getting into recovery via hardware....no possible way???? so basically i have a phone, that when put into fastboot, wont connect to ADB, and that means wont boot into recovery....totally stuck in a loop, been half an hour now. can anyone help me??? ive tried using a mac to use ADB (no drivers) but still no success. PLEASEE. ADB wont connect (and I had the same issue right after root. ADB worked one time, the one time i needed to flash TWRP, and then flash Debranded, Debloated, Deodexed H901-10c ROM for T-Mobile LG V10 (LG-H901) - Clean & Stable by @siraltus, which it is an amazing ROM, and i dont think this had anything to do with this. but please i really need to get my only phone working. if this is in the wrong section please wait till i get an answer to flag it...

All you have to do is make sure the phone is off with the battery in, then hold the volume down button and insert the micro usb cable to your computer, it'll boot up fastboot.

Have you tried erasing your partitions and flashing stock again?

EDIT: using fastboot erase system / fastboot flash system system.img / etc

From power off. Press and hold both power and volume down... When you see the LG logo release and repress the power button, DON'T RELEASE THE VOLUME DOWN KEY. It should bring up a factory reset many select yes... Then yes again...

So, the power vol down actually brings you into recovery instead of a factory reboot. Didn't know that. After I got into recovery, I did a back up. a system wipe did nothing. So I reflashed the v10 stock non root and reflashed the @siraltus ROM over top. then restored data. Its like it never happened. Thanks again guys!!! Issue resolved

Power+Vol Down always takes you into recovery. On stock recovery, it automatically triggers a factory reset, but with TWRP, it just boots it.
