Root [Help] Cannot boot into Recovery

[FluffyFox]

OK, so I'm using TheDemons Miui port ROM, and I tried to boot into cwm using lte2recovery.apk but each time it shows the Security error that says : Morning call is empty.

So I would have to restart like 3 times to get my phone working again.

I cleared the Dalvik Cache using Titanium Backup but no good....

Idk what to do, cause I need to use the recovery.

 

[DunderMifflin]

You do not use lte2recovery. It messes it up

 

[FluffyFox]

So what should I do? Cause this ROM doesn't have the Reboot into recovery option like BoBz or Playfulgods ROMs.

 

[DunderMifflin]

Can you get into recovery by rebooting and tapping the volume buttons?

If your reffering to if you Hold Power> Reboot> Recovery. Then no cause I don't have that.

If your referring to lte2recovery then no. Cause it goes to "Morningcall is empty"

:// Should i look into using another ROM then?

You're going to have to unbrick. Then reflash the rom but don't use the lte2apk.

No I mean like reboot your phone and as soon as it turns back on.. keep tapping the volume buttons

OK, so I just unbricked my phone. So how else could I flash the ROM? The only way I know is cwm. Is there another way?

I meant as in flash the rom through cwm, but after is done flashing and everything. Don't use lte2apk to install recovery.

But that's the problem I am having....

I flash the ROM. But how do I get into recovery again?

Cause in the Power menu, Reboot doesn't include Recovery like it does in Cyanogenmod.

As outlined in this guide I just wrote up: http://androidforums.com/motion-4g-all-things-root/771373-tip-lg-motion-4g-cm10-roms-recovery.html Just reboot your phone, and start pressing Volume Down REPEATEDLY until you see the recovery pop up

 

[FluffyFox]

Alright. I read the post, and I remember installing 2nd-init again...

I'll unbrick my phone again tonight when I have time and reinstall miui.

And if it doesn't work, then I'll just go back to playful gods ROM.

Could someone tell me how to possibly check if this ROM has a recovery? Is it in the zip you flash that I can look through?

You sir are amazing. I did what you told me and it worked.

Thanks for all your help :3

Just have to tap volume down once but yeah...

It's a timing thing. If you press Volume down once and it's too early or too late, you won't end up in recovery. If you repeatedly mash it like an idiot, you ensure you enter recovery the first time

Cool so that means I'm not an idiot... Lol

that only works on the apk version. when it hangs at lg logo you hit volume once and it puts you in recovery.

 

[Swainsmith82]

I don't i guess I just have really good timing but I just tried it and it works. Just press up when the little light that illuminates around the LG logo gets below the L before the face winks at you

A week or so ago i put a couple of posts on respected threads regarding the 2nd init apk and how the use of it on Top of a cm rom causes bootloop/soft brick and that a note should be made in key posts warning users about this. Unfortunately they were ignored as far as i can tell...
