You can but you'll have to go back to stock to do so.

Hi everyone, quick question. After i root can I install a custom recovery and boot into the stock rom? I want to be able to make a full nandroid back-up of the stock rom before i flash a new custom rom.
Im using the sprint g2 fully updated.

Yah you can go back to your stock ROM after custom recovery, doesn't effect ROM.....also you can make a backup just fine
Sweet! Thanks. Can you recommend a stable 4.4 rom?

Paranoid Android, Mahdi, OmniRom, SlimKat etc2 ...
you have to taste them all to know which one suits your requirement but those 4 definitely at the top of the piles
Awesome thanks for all the help!

Hey there,
Is there a known way to revert back to 4.2.2 rom from the new Kit Kat update from Tmo? I want to flash the PAC Rom for this and can't because there is no TWRP or other way of a custom recovery as of yet on this update. Makes me sad. I actually am on a rooted stock rom at this point. Just no custom recovery. Thanks for any help.
You can use this guide(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476) to downgrade to a version where custom recovery is possible and you will be able to flash pac

I know there's a way to do it but based on this thread we may be seeing a solution that allows custom recovery with 4.4.2 soon . http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2667227

I've been following the thread and the way I see it is even if the way there making recovery works we who are on kit Kat still need to use the flash tool to go to jelly bean and flash a modified kit Kat that will allow custom recoveries

True. I'm just hoping it isn't so locked down that we can't use other custom kernels. But thanks for the link, I'll be getting my G2 in two days and that info was relevant to my interests.

Well, as it turns out not so fast. I am trying to use the flash tool and am getting all sorts of errors. This is crazy I am contemplating returning this one to the Tmobile store and getting a replacement ( still inside the 14 day window. lol ) The replacement would still have 4.2.2 .. lol I hate being locked down. I die inside a little.
Hey all! I stupidly re-flashed LG Stock KK after some issues and forgot to flash SuperSU after as one is supposed to do and I lost root and twrp(obviously). Is there anyway to regain root?? I NEED my root back! ?

I'm not sure if this is the most efficient method but the thought occurred to me. Watch the video I'm linking you to to get you back to stock 4.2.2 then root and take the OTA update.

I want to try to revert my T-Mobile g2 back to stock to see if it fixes my issue with getting good no GPS lock. I've tried several roms, both stock based and aosp, and can't get GPS to work. I've read some things that suggested reverting back to stock firmware may fix it.
So, my question is this. Do I go back to kitkat or Jellybean? Is it still not possible to root stock kitkat?

if you want to be able to root then go with jb because there still isn't a way to root d801 t-mo on kk
Well, I reverted to stock 4.2.2, and still no GPS. I called T-Mobile, and they're sending me a replacement phone ☺

I am using Lg g2 f320s and i wanted to know how to update it to stock 5.0
I have to upgrade it manually because auto update says you are on latest os.
If someone can help it will be greatly appreciated.
Currently using 4.4.2 Stock Rooted.

Same question
Have you gotten any answers on this? I have tried every exploit I can find, but can't get past the recovery lock.
