Overall impressions of Android L on G3 and Battery life

Try leaving the phone powered down for at least 10 seconds and then try to boot into recovery. Also make sure you're not connected to a charger.
 
This definitely does not work on my A T and T G3. Not sure if it is carrier specific but all I get when I do that is a normal boot. Have tried it several times. Very frustrating as I would like to wipe the cache.

Hold the power and volume down for as long as it takes until you see the recovery menu. I have to do this with my Verizon G3 because getting to that menu is slightly different for some reason.

On some versions the process is different.


  1. Turn off your phone – you can press power button once for selecting “power off” or you can press and hold the power key for about 5 or 6 seconds.
  2. Now, press and hold Power and Volume down buttons at the same time.
  3. When the LG logo appears, release the keys.
  4. Immediately press Power and Volume Down buttons again until the Hard Reset menu will be displayed.
  5. Press Power button once and confirm the hard reset operation (this will not be necessarily if your LG G3 is running on a custom recovery image).
  6. That’s it; now your LG G3 will boot into recovery mode.
