Help - Locked safe mode topic

Hi there. Im Dante, from Argentina.
I own a LG G2, for a year now, and I never had a problem. Never installed a mod, just the stock configuration. Yesterday the phone screen got stuck out of nowhere, so I had to reset it holding the power button. When it reseted, it entered safe mode and now I can't get it out. I reseted several times, uninstalled apps and I did a software factory reset. Nothing, it still starts in safe mode.
I tried to do a hardware factory reset but when it asks to confirm by pressing the power button, nothing happens when I press it.
It's getting to my nerves and I don't know what to do.

Can someone please help? Thanks in advance.

LG 23A Lollipop 5.01 safe to disable apps topic

First, thank you to everyone who's shared work or development has helped us all. I'll name names later when I'm not on my phone. :o

Since 23A can't be rooted, or retain root from 12B via 10B, if you want to keep using it instead of downgrading to 12B the only option to debloat is to Disable stock apps through Androids interface.

There are additionally at least two pre-installed apps that can be totally uninstalled:

Farmville
&
iHeartRadio

iHateBloat! Uninstall those the normal way to uninstall Android apps if you don't want them.

If anyone notices any more, please post about it.

How to disable apps:

1. Go to settings by swiping down from the top of the screen and choosing the gear-wheel in the top right corner above the notification toggles.

2. Scroll down to the bottom of the "Device" section of Settings, choose "Application manager". It's the second one from the end in that section, two up from the "Personal" section.

3. Swipe left three times to the "All" section.

4. You can click the three-dot menu at the top right and sort by Name or Size.

5. Click an app you hope to disable. Some apps don't let you disable them.

6. I chose "Force Stop", "Disable", "Clear data" and when necessary "Clear cache". Note that sometimes one of these options will take care of some or all of the rest, but definitely not always in my observation.

7. Press Back to get back to the apps list.

8. Repeat steps 5-7.

You can swipe left once more to see all the apps that you have Disabled.

Following are screenshots of apps that can be disabled without any trouble or rooting.

Please feel free to share your experiences disabling these and additional apps.

Thank you!
