Get rid of twrp. Flash phils recovery or cwm. Twrp is buggy in general especially in the latest version.

Standard recovery image.

I flashed twrp on my Verizon LGG2. I was just wondering, since I have to have the standard recovery to get OTA updates(hopefully next one is Kit Kat), does anyone know where I can find it for my phone?

You will get kitkat much faster from the developers than you will an ota

Good to know, but doesn't answer my question.

Not sure, but I was wondering about this also. I think I'm just going to go back to stock when we get 4.4.

Anyone know the answer?

load the factory image using the LG tool. this will put you back to original stock, of course it will wipe your phone.
just an FYI, taking an OTA could possibly remove the ability to root your phone in the future. SO make sure that is really what you want.
I also have a similar question involving CWM. At the moment I have TWRP as my recovery (used flashify to install it), however I would prefer to use CWM. If I flash CWM via flashify, will it replace TWRP?

there is no reason why it shouldn't as far as I know, i've had twrp and have flashed cwm but am now back with twrp,just make sure it's the latest for your phone.

Awesome, thanks. I'm new to the LG phones (been on moto for the last few years) and just wanted to make sure

So is there any way to get standard recovery without having to reflash the entire stock rom?

D803 newest recovery? Or CWM?

I can't seem to flash any 4.4.2 roms because I have the old 6.0.3.2 twrp and there is no twrp for the D803 model.
I've been flashing flex roms and such and all work fine but the new roms give me the "failed to flash binary" error.
Anyone with a Canadian variant that knows what I can do? Should I move to the CWM recovery instead?
Thanks in advance.

have you guys tried freegee from the playstore?
I think that might have been how I installed twrp originally. Thanks

Why don't you use philz recovery.
It uses the new binary zips by default and has an option to allow the use of the old binary.

How does one even install CWM?
I've been stuck on TWRP 2.6.3.2 for a bit. I tried to install CWM via loki but that failed, because CWM is not lokified. Then I tried the dd method, and that just bricked recovery, and I had to flash stock firmware to get recovery back.

Need EFS Backup Files for SM N9005

i have flashed the phone without backup of the efs partition ,now i am having no service ie no gsm network. can anyone provide me the files-
efs.img.ext4
nvrebuild1.bin
nvrebuild2.bin
I am in the same situation...
You guys can't use the Backup of another Device, it's unique 4 every Phone. You'll only get trouble by restoring another ones Backup.
Try it that way...

I think I have fallen in love... thank you very much really xD
Well, now my phone has IMEI and EFS so I can call and have data internet... But even with a format data and a completely reset by TWRP still have some ''issues'' like lag, camera does not work and the phone ''vibrates'' occasionally :S

Question, since this file was in the generic SGN3 Section, will this work with the T-mobile Version, Sm-N900t, running 4.4.2 (1st release).?
And second,
Can I flash it with Safestrap? Or Stock Recovery? (Rename or similar), or Must it be with CWM?
Thanks in advance.
Be well

So the file linked above, "Brick Loop fixed after restoring Backup" will ONLY, work with the N9005, Correct?
I have the N900T, same problem however.
Ideas, or similar files to flash that may help me solve my problem? (Imei Unknown / 00) I have the correct baseband. Running 4.4.2 / NB4
Thanks

SM-N9005 custom rom install

Hi my friends phone recently died and now is stuck on the Samsung logo. I've re flashed 4.4.2 rom/firmware using ODIN (stock is 4.3) but still have no luck I've also tried Cf auto root after that I'm getting a message on normal boot up saying.
Set warranty bit: kernel
If I try enter recovery I get
Recovery booting
Recovery is not seandroid enforcing
Set warranty bit: recovery
I've downloaded a custom rom thinking maybe that would do it but it's came in a zip file which you upload to a sd card and to do that obviously you have to be able to get into recovery mode to do the install.
Can anyone please help me resolve this. I will be much greatful
Thanks

After you've flashed the rom via odin, emter recovery and factory reset. That could helps sometimes.

That's the problem I can't get into recovery I've just tried Cwm recovery and still nothing. It's really frustrating me.

Make sure you're rooted and supersu installed,Philz recovery installed,follow exact installation procedure of the rom.
There's usually a recommeded recovery so i'd advice use that but i've used philz for almost all roms on my grand 2 [ms013g] and works like a charm.
Hope you get your desired rom installed?
