[Q] Stuck in a Bootloop after modifying device in build.prop - Verizon LG G3

Help! I made the foolish decision to try and mess around in my G3's build.prop without really knowing what I was doing. My phone is currently stuck in a bootloop, not getting past the verizon splash screen. I have attempted booting into recovery mode and factory resetting, but for one reason or another, the phone won't do it and it ends up loading the splash screen over and over again. I have also researched flashing the stock rom onto the device with the LG flash tool. But, when I try to do this, the tool gives me an error saying that the "Device Model is different" because according to the build.prop, it is a Nexus 5.
Does anyone know of a method that can help me get this stupid thing working again?

I have seen build.prop files cut in half because it was a bad file editor. I hope u saved a copy. Posible reboot to fast boot and replace? Rom toolbox has nice interface for editing build.prop.

Thanks for your reply! I do have a copy. How would I go about booting into fast boot?

what do you have in the recovery partion, stock or or bumped twrp?

Well, I fixed it somehow. I got the stock Rom to flash, but I don't really,understand what,made it work this time. Whatever, I've learned my lesson. Thank you for your attempt to help!

Cool. I was going to mention that their may be a force or overide in the lg flashing software. Manual was one of the was to flash. any input you can add on how you did it would be great as I have read people have run into this before. their is no need to change the phone type to download apps from the market that are not compatible with your phone. The following link allows you to download any app and then you can sideload it (for future reference)
http://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/?id=ca.halsafar.genesisdroid
usage. go to the link. replace [ca.halsafar.genesisdroid] in your browser with the app you looking to download from the play store using the ending link in the play store address. then click the blue generate button on the page. a new green button to download the file will appear.
glad it worked out for ya. And check out rom tool boxs build.prop editor. very nice.

[Q]Sony BootLoop Solution??

[Q]Sony BootLoop Solution??
Only post here is somebody get the solution of bootloop problem..
i think that the only think that we can do is wait for someone that posts an update.zip to be flashed via recovery, obviously for the different versione..mine is 16gb 3g (europe sgpt114it)...your is?
I understand that we're all happy we got root, but you gotta be careful running out and deleting/freezing everything without a proper way to restore!
Also, these question threads should all be moved to general.
sorry for posting here, but I can see many people facing this similar boot loop issue & other threads are getting flooded, that is why I posted here..
Lets try to find some way as of now to get rid of this frustrating boot loop !!!
EDIT:
Can anyone tell me, what exactly should be present inside those update.zip?
I am not able to unzip or see the content of signed-nbx03_001XXXXXXXXX.zip, giving some error !!!
it gives errors because the zip is encrypted
what if someone posts a full rom dump and i flash all the files manually via adb?
I tried with another zip and now in Recovery Mode , getting below error:
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.

Since some files are encrypted or contain personal keys, I would think that this would be not advisable. Especially if you have the 3G version (IMSI keys, eyc.)
However, if you can remember what was the last action you performed before the bootloop (for example, uninstalled a particular system app), I would be happy to find the .apk and/or relevant system folder for you so you can install it via ADB (I suppose this would be possible, provided you still have ADB access and root/su).
I was trying to change the fonts using FONT CHANGER, I have not deleted any of the default apps or anything.

****.. thats not good.. you cant even reflash the same version of update..
you could wait for another update from sony, or wait for some hack of recovery, or hm... warranty?
are you able to get into recovery?
I am able to go into Recovery Mode, tried updating thru sdcard but I think we dont have the proper firmware to restore!!!
Its under warranty but donno wanna go there, it needs a solution coz I will again try to change fonts for sure
Did you try looking at condi's post? I am not quite sure what condi managed to achieve, but it sounds at least relevant.
Also, bear in mind I have posted a link to the contents of the (stock) font folder. If we knew exactly what changes are made by this application, it would be possible to revert them. If you can find out, I can find the stock files for you so you can manually reverse this issue.
EDIT: Do NOT try any of the above -- according to sapphire88. You've been warned!
tried both the way, by replacing the fonts with the original ones and by editing the build.prop...the results is that now i'm stucked at the sony logo (no more one time access to the home screen) ...contacted sony to ask them if i could have the original firmware in update.zip format...perhaps (i don't really think that they will give it to me)...
Well, this still makes no sense however. Can we approach the developer of Font Changer and ask the sort of changes the application is performing? I assume that it is not just replacing fonts, but also some system files that point to the fonts that are being used. If we could track all changes and reverse them, surely this would fix the issue.
What about condi's downgrade/upgrade option? (you said it did not work)
Also, do you still have access to ADB (perhaps in recovery)? If you do, then you can still essentially find ways to fix this issue. But for the time being let's black list Font Changer.
i haven't used an app to change the fonts, i've manually replace the three clock fonts (only those three files), and it ended in a bootloop, in recovery adb doesn't work and i can't no more access to the home screen to use adb..
anyone know about Safety Mode?? How to enter into safety mode.
Note: I am NOT talking about Recovery mode..

ADB is available in recovery - just wait a minute or two - it will become available. But its not fully working as in normal boot. Check it, you can 'adb push' some files, maybe you could turn your fonts to stock ones?

Yes, I figured it out some time ago, press power + vol-down, and keep vol-down pressed until tab fully start system.
ohh, so safe mode of no use as we are stuck with boot loop !!!

I had this, it was related to an init.d mod I flashed Best bet, in all honesty, to keep things simple? Flash KDZ :/ It fixes it. Just make a folder on your phone or a text file in Memo or something to write down what you need to reapply after the flash. It'll work, I promise. Happened to me like twice. Also, your Bluetooth is screwy, I believe GPS has become a tad less pin-pointed, and your Camera might not work. At least that was what happened with mine. Oh, and you randomly lose connection for a few seconds every few minutes. Again, only if you had it the way I did.
Best of luck, Kudos, and God bless!

i have CWM recovery? would this good?
and also would this get of my root?
yes it will get rid of your root, but the lgpwn method works on 20d, 20f, and 20h, so you're good.
Lgpwn does work with 20h. But it doesn't work for me if I leave Lookout running.

[Q]LG VS450PP Exceed 2 Help

Well I guess I've turned into that guy too...
I have a Verizon LG Optimus Exceed 2 (VS450PP) with some form of CWM recovery installed (I used a LG L70 ms323 version).
For some reason, recovery still boots into stock recovery, but when I chose the factory reset, I see a CWM logo for a fraction of a second..
I tried flashing Cyanogenmod 11, but stupid me, I didn't check if the boot.img was locked. (shoulda Bump'd it!).
Now I get a security error when booting, and recovery isn't working properly either.
I've searched high and low for the KDZ/TOT/DLL files for this phone and haven't found any yet, so I'm turning this over to you guys at XDA for help.
Please Help!
Thanks!

Still possible by bumping a modified boot.img, but a debloated stock ROM is likely the most you will ever see. I had been working on one, but my time has been so very limited of late. Unfortunately, there's lot much love for sub $100 devices in the development community these days, and I don't possess the skill set for AOSP development myself (yet).
If you (or anyone) has the time to freeze some of the crap on an active one of these without breaking things, I'd love to hear about it. I could then create a debloated, deodexed, zip-aligned one to flash in TWRP.

This is one of those cheap phones that would benefit from love and support. Some things it does better than my GS3. I used Romtoolbox to delete non-system apps. Email, gmail, some google apps. Kept some verizon crap just in case. Not sure if safe to delete google talkback. Probably safe (http://www.androidcentral.com/what-google-talk-back). Possibly a few more apps/services can be deleted i can't think of right now. I have ~180MB free space with GPS and some other apps installed. 32GB SD FAT formatted for media, downloads, some gps maps. Never had luck with link2sd, don't want to swap internal<>external storage.
I was uninstalling apps with romtoolbox and accidentally deleted a home theme. Now the home screen blinks. Is there a way to flash stock? Rooted, TWRP installed. I used to do it with older LG phones but can't remember how i did emergency recovery.

Boot to your TWRP recovery and restore your latest working backup?
Pull Battery out
Put Battery back in
Hold Volume Down and Power until a white screen comes up
You should get 4 options
Use Volume Down to select Wipe Cache
Press Power Button
It should then go into TWRP
If you don't have a backup you can return to complete stock (wipes the phone) via the links in my posting over here.

I've done accidental deletions with older phones but this time was different. I deleted my home screen theme while debloating. There's no LG emergency recovery tool, no KDZ on lg site. I dl elsewere and another custom lg tool from a forum. I could access settings and selected a new home screen theme. No need for recovery. I figured i can always dl a custom theme. Installed Nova launcher. Everything is good. I'll bookmark this page in case i screw up again. Thanks.

Please Help! Can I still access my files??

Hi guys!
I have made a serious mistake, and I feel so stupid! I was wondering if any you awesome people at XDA would be able to save me.
I have an LG G2 vs980 Lollipop 5.0.2
So, all I wanted to do was change my startup screen to get rid of that boring LG logo and replace it with something neater. I went over to Google and found a guide on how to do this, and followed the steps 1 by 1. Everything actually worked out perfectly, but it wasn't until after I was locked out of my phone that I realized that I had used a startup image that was not compatible with my LG G2! (Total face palm!). Now, whenever I power my phone, it flashes that "neat" image that I replaced the stock one with - before the screen goes completely blank. Not good at all.
So my question is this - Is there a way I can acess my system folder without having access to my phone? I know EXACTLY what file I need to remove/edit to solve this problem! In fact, that is what is frusturating me the most. It's not some random error message out of the blue that I know nothing about. I know exactly what the problem is, I just don't know if I have access to the solution. I just really hope I don't have to wipe everything back to stock all because of a lousy startup image.
If anybody can help me access my system folder so I can switch out the bad file for the default one, and get access to my phone again - I would be so forever grateful! Thank you in advance to anybody that can save me!
Much appreciative,
Terri (Psyintz)

In order to use adb you must have USB debugging enabled, had you have it enabled?
If not you can use lg flash tool 2014 to flash stock rom, there is a way to flash it with out wiping, by using normal mode.
Follow this guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
As mentioned in the guide about Normal mode:
Normal Flash: Flash ROM without losing any data. Only use this when you need to fix system error. Beware of boot loop when flashing ROM that differ from current ROM on your phone or MOD ROM.

Boot Logos!

Just flash the zip in TWRP to change your boot logo. These should work for any model of the G6 Play. All backgrounds are white with the exception of the original boot logo. This was done to cover up that annoying bad key or N/A message. Enjoy!
Hey, thanks for this! If I do a design, could you make it into one of these? For example, this one?

This took me a few hours. Hope you folks like it. I'll probably make a few more over the next several days.
Is there a tutorial anywhere on how make these?
These are great and just what I need, however, I can't seem to the zip files when I'm booted into TWRP on my XT1922-3 (I think it has something to do with not being able to find a download for XT1922-3_no_dm-verity_boot.img that still exists anywhere). So is there a way to flash this using fastboot?
I tried unzipping and using the command > 'fastboot flash logo logo.bin' which it said was successful, but I still see the bad key or N/A.
It would be great if anyone can explain how to get this to work for me.

You shouldn't need a no verity boot.img
You can flash the dmverity disabler then magisk.
If you already have TWRP, then dmverity has already been disabled. Or your phone wouldn't boot.
But if you need it

Thanks, yes, I downloaded that already and put the zip file into the root directory, but TWRP doesn't see it to be able to install/flash it.
As I don't need the phone rooted, as I'm just setting it up to sell on, I think I'll just reflash the stock firmware and see if I can relock the bootloader and get rid of the N/A and/or Bad Key messages, so it is like oem from the factory, for whoever buys it.

That's because TWRP can't read encrypted storage. Has to on your SD card.
These are really cool! Appreciate you sharing what you made and getting the annoying "bad key" done away with. Did you follow a specific tutorial to make these or you just already knew how? I am interested. I would like to make some is why I ask. I use Ubuntu on my home computer and I have gimp. I haven't ever really messed with it much but I plan on setting down with it soon ,hopefully this weekend and this would be a cool project I believe to start out. I'll search around here on xda and see what all I can find on boot logos. Thank you! Also thank very much for the custom twrp recovery!! If it wasn't for you I don't believe the Moto g6 play would be able to install GSI roms. :good:
