Clockworkmod on T-Mobile d801 - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was linked to this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2468858
But I see nothing that reads "d801" and I prefer CWM over TWRP. Plus the install script not working from the official CM posts is a bummer. Can anyone tell me which recovery to download? Preferably a .zip file?

Nobody? I was wondering if the d800 or d802 versions would work.

Verizon Recovery

I'm completely new to Loki, can someone answer these questions, please?
1. On Verizon, which Recovery is my best choice?
2. Is Loki built in the recovery?
3. Once I have recovery can I just flash roms, etc. From recovery like normal? Nothing extra?
I did search, so please, your answers and time are appreciated.

Get TWRP from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670
Install instructions are included in that thread. I used flashify but heard others had issues.
Once its installed you can flash ROMs and the one kernel or mods till you drop.
So Loki makes s off obsolete?

See this tread I wrote about installing Loki-enabled ClockworkMod recovery on Verizon LG G2:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2498941
1) Either CWM or TWRP. I don't think either is "best"; they generally do the same things. Each recovery has its fans. The tread above is specific to CWM recovery.
2) By default, no. I created Loki-enabled images for CWM. There is a loki-enabled image for TWRP if you wish to use that. Once you have the image handy, you can use the steps described in the post above to install it.
3) Once you have CWM or TWRP custom recovery, You can flash custom ROMs like normal.

VZW G2 Stock Recovery img

Can someone please post or link me to the Verizon g2 stock recovery? Or tell me where it's located in the Rom so I can pull it? I want to have a backup of the stock img. I looked through the zip and can't find it anywhere.

Not supported

Every link I follow to get a recovery that can flash a 4.4 rom I d801 either takes me to the recovery I already have or to another variant. Is neither cwm or twrp no longer supporting recoveries for the d801? I broke down an decided to ask a question I'm sure has been asked before, because I've looked for days and came up with nothing. I just need a flashable zip to update with I have.

D803 newest recovery? Or CWM?

I can't seem to flash any 4.4.2 roms because I have the old 6.0.3.2 twrp and there is no twrp for the D803 model.
I've been flashing flex roms and such and all work fine but the new roms give me the "failed to flash binary" error.
Anyone with a Canadian variant that knows what I can do? Should I move to the CWM recovery instead?
Thanks in advance.

have you guys tried freegee from the playstore?
I think that might have been how I installed twrp originally. Thanks

Why don't you use philz recovery.
It uses the new binary zips by default and has an option to allow the use of the old binary.

How does one even install CWM?
I've been stuck on TWRP 2.6.3.2 for a bit. I tried to install CWM via loki but that failed, because CWM is not lokified. Then I tried the dd method, and that just bricked recovery, and I had to flash stock firmware to get recovery back.

ROMs won't boot

Hey all I have ATT d800 - I used 10d stock firmware and rooted. Using Philz recovery latest version.
No ROMs will boot. I am stuck at the LG screen. The only only ROM that boots are CM11 nightlies.
ANY help here is appreciated.

I seriously do not know what else to do. I really enjoy CM11 Nightlies...but I wan't to try something else at least a few other ROMs.
I can't be only one with this issue.
I think my prob is i have a zva rom but no zva radio i never flashed my radio after update so i think mine stuck between two roms kinda in a weird way
