Hi all, first post in this forum - thanks for any help you can provide.
My wife and I both have LG G2 devices on AT&T. I rooted mine last year with LG One Click Root and successfully added TWRP and have been running Cyanogenmod 13.0 for several months with no issues. I've been able to update, flash, etc without much trouble.
My wife's phone - that's a different story.
She is currently on 5.0.2. I had some issues rooting her phone last week with LG One Click Root so I tried iRoot from the phone app. iRoot was successful in rooting the phone - verified with root checker. I installed TWRP, ROM Manager, and all the associated root apps. Followed the CM wiki to the letter as I did with my G2 and other phones I have successfully rooted. Then I copied CM 13 and Gapps to the Internal drive as the G2 doesn't have a SD port.
Here is where I run into an issue: Every time I try to boot it into recovery, I get a laying down Android with a red triangle above him. I then reboot the phone normally and everything is fine - runs 5.0.2 and it's all good - but it doesn't boot into TWRP. I also rebooted using the power and volume keys but I thought since I had TWRP on there it would reboot into TWRP if I instructed the phone to wipe everything. But it didn't- it wiped everything and booted up into 5.0.2. Subsequent attempts to reboot into TWRP yield the laying down Android figure. I've wiped davlik/cache, etc, to no avail.
I've tried everything I know to do to resolve the issue, but I'd really like to get my wife on 6.0. It's the least I can do for wiping her phone - she was reluctant to let me try and put a new mod on there in the first place. ;) I'd appreciate any tips you folks can provide to get past the laying down Android screen.
Thanks so much!
