Hey man if you know all the steps and it fails maybe try Philz cwm recovery in Original android development thread....a lot ppl having success with it....

First time installing CyanogenMod 11 to your LG G2 (D802), or coming from another ROM:
- Read the official wiki
- Copy GApps and CM11 ZIPs to your SDCard
- Boot into Recovery
- DO A DATA WIPE / FACTORY RESET
- Flash CM11 zip from SDCard
- Flash GApps zip from SDCard
- Reboot
- Don't restore system data using Titanium Backup!
- Restoring Apps + Data might cause problems and is not recommended, avoid it if possible!
Upgrading from earlier version of CyanogenMod 10.2:
- Copy CM11 ZIP to your SDCard
- Boot into Recovery
- Flash CM11 zip from SDCard
- Reboot
I update from cm10.2 and had much errors.
I think the best is a first time installation

Kevin, ever get this figured out? I'm using TWRP also and flashed 10.2 with no problems. Tried two of the cm11 nightlies and both of them failed. Any ideas?

When flashing kit Kat rooms you need the newest recovery. Twrp 2.6.3.4. Should work.

Cannot install ROMs with CWM 2.5.1.8 or 2ndInit2.3

Hi,
This is the first time I've tried rooting a device so bare with me :good:.
It's taken me a few attempt to get things working on my Defy MB525 I've managed to root it with SuperOneClick and install either CWM 2.5.1.8 or SndInit2.3 (which uses CyanogenDefy Recovery v5.0.3.1). I'm now at a stumbling block where when I try to install a custom ROM on the device I keep getting...
"E:error in /sdcard/*ROM name*.zip
(status 0)
Installation Aborted"
Is there something I'm doing wrong or is it just the recovery programs I'm using?
What's the ROM you are trying to install?

I've tried a few now. The latest 4.4 alpha roms by Quarx, CM10 Android 4.1.2 also by Quarx and MokeeOS 43.1 and all come up with error.
Try to wipe the sdcard.
I'm downloading the file on a different computer as maybe the Antivirus on the work PC is messing it about. Also does the class of SDcard make a difference? It's only a class 4 8GB.

No, the class has nothing to do. Use recovery to wipe, and not windows.

4.1 should install. 4.3 and 4.4 need a newer recovery.

From 4.1 to 4.3 I installed using last TWRP. For 4.4 you need to use this.

Which recovery installs do the newer versions need and is there an install guide for these?

For 4.3+ you need to first install 4.1/4.2 first to get the newer recovery.

Right I've just managed to get cm-10-20131030-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip to install from Quarx. Will let you know if the install is successful.:good: I would like to eventually install 4.4 KitKat when a more stable release is available.
edit: Succesfully installed . Just got to put Gapps on now.
Just install the zip from SDcard using your current custom recovery.

Thanks for the reply. I noticed that after I flashed with the 4.1.2 Quarx from there was a new bootloader on it. This should make it easier. I had to wipe and start again yesterday because I cocked up the Gapps install. In the end I went with the 30th Oct 2013 build of CM10 by Quarx and got the Gapps from www.goo.im/gapps. All seems to be running fine now and finished setting it up last night.
My girlfriend has a phone she can use now as her old one broke and she didn't want to use the Defy as the data couldn't be switched off on the stock ROM and would cost her a lot on her data plan (500MB a mth). Her Mum got a new contract with a Desire C so the Defy was going spare .

Hi guys,
I just want to ask you how could I replace TWRP Recovery with CWM on my LG G2 D802 International?
I have rooted and installed TWRP but I have issue with installing CyanogenMod 10.2 Stable (I checked MD5 and downloaded it many times), as I understand is a problem of TWRP compatibility.

[Q] CM11 and tmo D801

I have been trying to flash CM11 to my G2(Tmo) but the problem I am running into is that no matter what tut I follow I end up with the same result. Fail. I have attached a pic of my screen if that helps. I have TWRP v2.6.3.2 installed and everything but install runs fine. The error that comes up on the install screen is "E:Error executing updater binary in zip '.........'. I am a noob to flashing/roms sorry If more information is needed just let me know.
Thanks.

To flash CM11 and most kitkat roms, you'll need to update TWRP. The most up-to-date version for the D801 (T-Mobile G2) is v2.6.3.5, which can be found in the CMB thread under G2 Android Development (T-Mobile): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2568732 . The update is a flashable zip, so download it to your phone, reboot to recovery, and install it using your existing TWRP. After a reboot into recovery you should be updated, and you should be able to flash CM11.
thanks

[Q] ART to Dalvik and Titaniun Backup

I'm currently running CM11 (02-07) with ART enabled. I'm thinking of upgrading to the current nightly, but I'm not sure if I need any special steps with ART.
I will be flashing the ROM manually because I need to modify the device number, so I'll probably be doing a reset before, which will of course reset back to Dalvik and remove all my apps.
Now my quesion is, can I backup my apps and user data while in ART with Titanium, and then restore them in Dalvik? I'm thinking of keeping Dalvik so I can flash stock remote and camera.
Thanks,
Vic
Did a Titanium backup, clean install and everything is ok. ART is good, but I'm happy to be able install the remote and camera, and maybe try xposed framework.

I noticed you are using a furnace kernel,Did you flash CM11 with stock lg kernel? If so what version of twrp did you use. I don't understand the problem because I have the dame model as you.

Again, post back at that other thread with the details of what you did and what error you are getting. The more detail you can give the more we can help.
In a nutshell, the recovery that you install will dictate what ROM will work on your device. For some of the ROMs in that thread you will need to install a kernel, but that depends. And I'm not sure what error you are getting.

It won't allow me because the thread is only for developers.

The first official CM12 nightly is available!

Direct download
Download page with all nightlies
For now, there is no network on XT1033.
Do you tested if everything works ?

I am using TWRP. I just flashed cm11 using the general procedure ( Wiping and flashing the zip ) and then I flashed cm12 over it without wiping the device.
Xt1032, latest twrp, bootloop.
