I see a "return to stock" guide on that page. Thanks, but I'm looking for just the Recovery - not the entire ROM.

You can find it here http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G2
just check your version.

Downloaded the TOT file. I'm guessing the Recovery image is in it somewhere. I'm looking for JUST a Recovery zip.

THANK YOU, Sir.
Update:
Having trouble with Flashify. It doesn't see a recovery image, I guess. I tried putting the zip file, the extracted folder, AND the single file into Flashify's Recovery folder. No go. It doesn't see a file to flash for some reason. Am I doing something wrong?

Single file would be the way to go. No clue, have never actually used it. Just backed it up. Sorry. Maybe just may work for me. Shouldn't you be able to remove from a tot or extracted kdz bin?

Reverting to stock recovery in order to accept OTA updates ...
For anyone trying to apply any OTA updates, e.g., from Verizon, after modding your phone, restoring back to your previous version and wanting to go back to stock (for WHATEVER reason):
As you may have found out, trying to apply OTA updates with a custom recovery seemingly bricks your phone (it doesn't really, there are some nifty "dd" Linux commands you can use to get your phone to break out of the boot-loop it's stuck in).
Since I went back to my previously backed up stock ROM, I also wanted to revert to my stock recovery so that I could accept Verizon's OTA updates (if only because the popup reminders are annoying and a drain of the battery).
Here are the steps I followed, thanks to this thread:
- I downloaded the recovery.img from the link in Partager.info's post (#4) (choose the model subfolder which corresponds to your variant of the G2).
- I used "adb push" to copy the file from my computer to /sdcard (good to have on the sdcard partition as the rest get blown away when you flash a ROM)
- I installed "Flashify (for root users)" (found in the Play Store) on my phone
- I ran Flashify and chose the stock recovery file I downloaded which was in the /sdcard folder as expected (no need to put image files in specific folders; whatever works best for you)
- It flashed it in a blink of the eye and asked me to reboot; I did and it's worth mentioning I got the Android with the triangle (*clench*)
- I held the power button and forced it to shut down/reboot
- Upon reboot, I saw the Verizon boot animation (*unclench*)
- I checked for an update from Verizon and it prompted me to reboot and apply it; I clicked "Install now"
- It successfully rebooted and applied the update; what a relief to see the firmware update splash screen
Pfew. Thanks again, Partager.info and Steamer86.

[Q] Transfer TWRP back up using ADB

Hey,
Can someone explain to me how I can tranfer a TWRP back up from my PC to my LG G2 D802 using adb sideload?
I got an OTA and updated, now I get a constant TWRP bootloop and don't have a back up.
I was running the 4.4.2 LG KK rom with custom recovery and root : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2681205
I want to place my TWRP back up of my rom, so I can use this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2659231.
I removed the back up from my phone because it was 4 gb large, hovewer I also do not have enough room to place this back up.
So:
I have to remove some files so I have enough place to place my back up file, so I can restore my phone.

ok first that is not a tutorial that is someone else with the same problem as you and if you would have read through he stated restoring a backup didn't and I can confirm that restoring a backup will not do anything I suggest you try this and if that doesn't work check to see if download mode is working so that you can use the back to stock thread in the general section

I think the best way now is to revert to stock using the lg flash tool ?

Man, thank you so much for taking your time to help me.
I do have a couple of questions:
1) When I revert to stock am I returing to the state when I bought my phone thus jellybean so I will be able to upgrade to 4.4.2 with custom recovery ?
2) Am I than able to restore my nandroid back up of the previous ROM?
AS I STILL HAVE TWRP:
1) Would it not be easier to transfer the roms and files needed from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2681205
and just flash them in the same proces?
2) Would it not be easier to just flash another custom rom like pacman or paradroid using ADB Sideload, as I read in many cases that flash tool stops during the process ?

You can restore to stock 4.2 or 4.4 it's up to you and the kdz you download, if you restore to 4.2 after rooting and getting recovery you will be able to restore your previous nandroid, if you decide to go to 4.4 then root and recovery are available but to restore your 4.2 nandroid you would need to flash the in baseband too, it would be easier to and flash but that wouldn't get you out of recovery the moment the phone tried to ota it creates a dev block(temporary partion) which holds on to the ota file so that it can be installed/flashed the with the phones stock recovery and the only way to get rid of it is by flashing stock kdz

Okay I get what you're saying, flashing stock is the way to go
Flash back to 4.4 and than apply root and custom recovery with the AutoRec – KitKat Recovery Installer
Btw to apply method 3 as you suggested:
do I have to put my phone in dowload mode or just on during the lg logo ?
Those are my only questions I still have left.
Thank you so much for your time

I dit it ! It worked due to your instructions thank you so much !!
I could not get into Download mode because the phone kept rebooting, the trick is to keep on pressing the volume down and the middle button until the phone completely shuts down and does not reboot.
Try it this way.

Can you the best way to root my device so I can perfom a custom recovery with autorec?

[Q] LG G2 brick after change build.prop

I rooted the phone, everything was going good. I was playing with Exposed and I wanted to remove soft keys. I found a post to edit build.prop and I did not back up build.prop before i tried to edit it and all went all from there.
Now When i turn it on i get it booted up but it says unfortunately androidsystem.ui has stopped and wont go any farther,
I am running 4.4.2 stock rom, After this I did a factory reset hoping this to fix the problem...This did not fix it lol.
I am afraid I can not ADB it now as I do not have developer options and USB debugging....
Anyway to edit Build.prop from the computer?
if not how do i fix this?
Thank you!

First off, brick means it's as functional as a fired clay brick.
Second. ADB from recovery. If you don't have a custom recovery, factory reset.

I don't think a factory reset would help since it only wipes data and cache. He said he already tried one without success.
If you have a custom recovery installed, you have a couple of options. If adb is working, you can pull/push a fixed build.prop. Or you could find a stock build.prop and create a flashable zip for it.
If you don't have a custom recovery, as far as I know you're pretty much stuck having to flash a factory image, which means you'll lose all your data because your internal storage will be wiped.

I do not have a custom recovery as I rooted 4.4.2 and as far as I know you can not have recovery with 4.4.2 root unless you downgrade to 4.2 first, root then update, Correct?
I was wondering, Can i install custom recovery now?
Keep in mind this is my second LG G2, The first one I COMPLETELY bricked it and it wont power on, no LG image, No charge, no download mode nothing. I do not want that again as it is a paper weight now lol.

I have the Verizon version so I can't speak for others, but you only need to downgrade to the 4.2 bootloader to install the recovery and then you can go back to the 4.4 bootloader. I used AutoRec which does it all for you automatically. But at this point I don't think you'll be able to flash a custom recovery, as you either need adb access or the ability to install an apk.
Here's the guide for flashing the factory images: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
I suggest trying the TOT method first if your variant is supported

Thank you,
I believe I will trade to flash stock rom again and root from 4.4.
Wish me luck.

As i look into the TOT flash procedure I am wondering what Variant the D803 is....
I have a Telus LG G2 and I believe it is the D803....

It is fixed everyone. Thanks to everyone who helped.

@Magic2010 wrote a quick how to find the info you need. What I'm going to say is if you are a noob please read all the threads he posted, atleast 2 times each. Read them until you are certain you understand them. While rooting and such is fairly easy and it is not easy to truly hard brick your phone, soft bricks can be as easy as forgetting to push a button or not reading a file name completely.
I would suggest not just reading to top posts in each of the threads magic linked but read all the posts so you know what others did, and how they fixed it and our how they could have prevented any issues.

[Q] Possible to unroot after root?

Hey guys.
My brother wants to change some system files on his stock 4.4.2 G2 which requires root.
Problem is, he uses some apps which can only run on non-rooted phones. So two questions:
Can he root his G2, change system files, and then 100% un-root without having to flash KDZ file etc? He does not need any custom recovery like TWRP. He wants to edit with Root Explorer and then he wants to unroot.
Is this possible and if so, should he use Towelroot or ioroot25?
Thanks!

Okay well yes it is possible to root change the files and then unroot but he will not be able to 100% unroot
Once you root the g2 there are some areas which will get triggered kind of like a flag going from white(unrooted) to red(rooted) and the only way to completely remove those traces of root is to kdz back to stock
You can root using towelroot or ioroot25 main differences is one needs a pc and other doesn't, if you really want to root you can always consider apps like hide my root or root cloak from the playstore which work very well for hiding root access from apps which cannot be used while rooted

Yes that guide says unroot but the process is very similar to kdz to stick in which it overwrites the system with the stock one and will of course revert any changes the used wants to make

Am I wrong in thinking to get FULL unroot, download mode and everything, you need to use the tot and not the kdz?

both kdz/tot will get you fully unrooted(although some early kitkat kdz files were giving rooted status even though user was not this was fixed with other kk updates/kdz files)

ok so im a lil confused, i want to completly un root, so i need tot and kdz? or just one i tried using kdz and for some reason it wont work

here is rhe short way :
unroot = flashing stock firm no matter kdz or tot

so whats the best way to do that?

The easiest thing to do is to go to the supersu app, settings and find the full unroot . i don't know or LG can see that you rooted but i guess so then you need to reflash kdz or tot.
See the link from @zekurosu for the easy guide to return back to stock with kdz or tot flashing.
Before you do this please recharge your phone to atleast 80% and for the safest thing to 100% while doing this. Also read the steps carefully

its easy

Hey guys.
My brother wants to change some system files on his stock 4.4.2 G2 which requires root.
Problem is, he uses some apps which can only run on non-rooted phones. So two questions:
Can he root his G2, change system files, and then 100% un-root without having to flash KDZ file etc? He does not need any custom recovery like TWRP. He wants to edit with Root Explorer and then he wants to unroot.
Is this possible and if so, should he use Towelroot or ioroot25?
Thanks!
