Does anyone know will this return to stock method stickied in the general section ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476 ) return the AT&T d800 from the red ROOTED status back to the unrooted status in the bootloader? Any insight would be much appreciated before I root.

yes if you return to stock via that method it does change from rooted to unrooted.

Does this apply to all versions of the G2?
I have the LG D801 from Wind Mobile.

the only way to go back to stock recovery is to go back to stock but you can also follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2673736 which will allow you to have root and custom recovery

Hi Guys, I have read some topics about downgrading, but im not fully understanding if this is only for people who is already rooted or if this will work for a non rooted device. In my case i have an At&t Lg G2 not rooted with 4.4.2 kitkat and wanted to revert to 4.2 so i can root and then flash a rooted stock 4.4.2 kitkat. Is it possible to do that, even if i was never rooted? I do understand there's no root for kitkat as of now.
Thanks guys.

The rooted flag didn't clear when you updated to 4.4.2. There isn't root for kitkat. There probably won't be any time soon so if you want it back find one of the threads explaining how to downgrade and get root properly on kitkat. It

But i have to flash a 4.2.2 rom and i cant find it, only 4.4.2... can you tell one for europe free, i have lg- g2 d802 32 gb. thanks
Can someone tell me the steps to turn back the G2 to stock for sale so it can accept OTAs without bricking the device?
Is it with the LG flash tool and original rom kdz only?
Or do I have to do anything else?
And then how to change the root status to unrooted?
Thanks!
TOT will make it go unrooted and back to stock. I don't know about kdz...

Hi Friends!
I rooted my G2, just rooted. I didn't install another ROM.
So, My G2 is StockROM rooted.
How Can I back to unrooted? Factory Reset?
Thanks!

Unroot via SuperSU or go back to stock using the "How to get back to Stock GUIDE". The latter is preferred.

Why you want to unroot let it be rooted. Root has many advantages.

Hi,
I had to send in my S4 (rooted with Loki) to Samsung to replace the screen. I'm assuming they restored to factory default and then flashed to latest 4.4.2. Is it possible to odin back to an earlier Android version and root my phone again or am I stuck with stock now?

You can't Odin back but you can root. Do you know what version of 4.4.2 you're on, nb1, nc1, or nl1?

possibly dumb question, but can I install custom recoveries with after towelroot exploit?
edit: found out answer to my own questions. Sucks that Samsung updated my phone and now I'm stuck with safestrap.

You can only install safestrap as the recovery. You'll be able to flash touch wiz based roms and a couple of Google play addition. See in the general forum, index all things at&t....

For those rooted with Loki+Motochopper I would suggest buying your own NEW screen and replacing then. Better than being locked down tight and not have full control of your own personal device. Sorry to hear about being updated... But your post made me decide what I would do if/when my screen goes out or glass breaks

I sent mine to a phone repair website and they did some JTAG magic stuff and downgraded mine to 4.2, which is what it came with when I got it. I don't recall the website, but if you search around I'm sure you'll find something. It cost about $50.
