[Q] Do Rogers D803 G2's use at&t custom roms? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Where would I look for a custom rom that works with a D803 (rogers)?
When I had the SGS3, the rogers model = the at&t model and shared the same roms.
Is this the case with the G2?
Or will I have to look at each individual rom and see whether it is compatible in its description?

I'm just starting to look at that my self. rooted until then. but I need a custom recovery as well.

please do share if you find out haha

You can flash Cleanrom from the AT&T section. Scott supports our model with his builds so give him a thanks.

You can also flash this rom, as the dev also supports our model so make sure you give him a thanks as well

So here is were we are at. We can flash other Roms that are based on the original lg ROM. Ie clean rom, power user rom.
We can't flash things that require different kernel from what I get.
So no asop or cm based Roms until we see official support.

The LG G2 D803 uses the same rom but with a different boot.img ... The Rogers D803 also has a different D803 boot.img in contrast to the one on Bell, Fido, or even Telus. If you want to flash a rom from AT&T , you have to remove the boot.img

[Q] Loki + Roms from other S4 variants

So, if I'm running an auto-Loki recovery, like OUDHS, what is the correct process to flash a rom from, say, the Sprint GS4 variant?
For example, the Sprint S4 has a ParanoidAndroid build. What would I need to do with my ATT S4 & OUDHS recovery to properly flash that rom? Is that even how it works?
I am not a dev so I may be wrong but remember that the Sprint is based on CDMA , not GSM. I would not flash a Sprint based Rom unless a dev had modified it.

So, you're suggesting that with any Snapdragon-based S4, I can just flash the rom, then flash a Loki'd kernel, and I'm good? Except for maybe adding the ATT APN?

Even with roms for the Sprint S4? Surely that would cause a problem.

While the S3 had the att fix, there was a problem with gps for many people after flashing sprint or verizon based roms. I lost my gps and had reset the nv to get it back. There was a fix for this with the S3, but I don't know if it works with the S4.

[Q] How do we install a custom recovery now that we are running stock 4.4.2 (rooted)?

KK and custom recoveries are not compatible just yet. At least for the ATT versions, you have to go back to a previous JB version, root, and then add KK. But custom recovery is lost in that process.
That is where we stand at the moment. At least for ATT.
There is a method in the T-Mobile subforum that will give you what you want. You will have to revert to 4.2.2 first

Thanks for the information. I want to wait then if I have to go through all that. I wonder when they will come out with a compatible custom recovery
With at&t the only way to have custom recovery with kit Kat is to go down to 10d(First version of 4.2.2 on it) root and then install Gary's modified kit Kat which is a mix and match of 10d and 20c which will be the same thing that will be with other models just have to wait for a)kernel source(each model has a different kernel so they have to be built with the specific kernel for it) and b)for someone to build the Rom(yes many can do it but it's better if they phone model to test on)
Edit:here is thread for you to get it in d801

[Q] LS-980 ZVC compatible roms

Hey everyone I currently have a LS-980 on stock KK rooted with ioroot25 and twrp'ed using autorec.
What roms out there (if any) are compatible with ZVC? Stock KK is ok but after trying out the Pacman
Rom when I was on JB I just love the kind of vanilla android feel more and I want that back lol. But
don't really want to go through the whole process of downgrading right now. So if you guys could point
me to a rom that is definitely ZVC compatible it would be much appreciated. Thanks
zvc dark ui rom
The only dark ui rom i have found to work on my ls980 is CARBON

Not to get off topic
My phone came stock ZVC as well, I downgraded to ZV8 and added CM11. Now I want to go CM11 to 2-Faced Rom or another ZVD or ZVC compatible rom however, when I try to flash the proper files to do so I get stuck in a bootloop. Any help? I have also tried flashing the newest dormanx kernel did not uplift the bootloop. My only real want is to run a rom that has LG stock apps and a working hotspot mod that uses the triband radio the phone is fully capable of.

Can I run LG-G2 D802's ROM on D803?

I recently got an LG G2 and was wondering if I can run ROMS based on D802. First off what is the diffwerence in the devices other than celluar. Will it affect the device at all? If you guys can recommend ROMS too that would be great!
Thanks for the help.

You can run D802 ROMs on a D803 *IF* you install a D803 kernel after flashing the D802 ROM and *before* booting.
Back in the early days, I did this with several different ROMs on my D803.
Now, though, there are enough ROMs that support the D803 that there's no need to run a D802 ROM. Just check out the G2 Original Android Development forum for threads with ROMs from Carbon, Mahdi, ParanoidAndroid, Slim, Vanir, and a handful of others.
(Personally, I stopped ROM-hopping after installing Mahdi. Before that, I kept bouncing between Carbon and SlimKat.)

OH cool. One more thing, is there a guide on how to flash a custom recovery on the D803 somewhere? I couldn't find it.

The free version of freegee can install it for you, there is also a TWRP app that can install a recovery.

If you are on the stock LG ROM, read the autorec thread. That will install TWRP for you.

TouchWiz Stock Lollipop ROMs

Hey everyone,
I was wondering is there a stock touchwiz rom out there I can flash on my sm-g900w8 (canadian variant) The only roms I see are for the sg-g00f. Am I following this all correctly or missing something?
Thanks!

Not officially, no. You can however try ROMs intended for the G900F as both phones have same hardware afaik. Ofcourse make a nandroid backup first and then go try out AllianceROM (best ROM ever)
