So I accidentally deleted my stock rom for my T-Mobile G2. Im running ParanoidAndroid just fine, but there are a few occasions when a quick restore to stock from TWRP is helpful. Does anyone have a TWRP flashable stock ROM? Id much rather not have to do the whole firmware restore and all that.
Thanks!

Hey everyone!
I just got my AT&T G2 last night.. I like the phone, but really want to root and ROM, coming from a gnex.. its a bit bloated to me
Anyway, it was 4.4.2 out of the box with firmware verison, D80020c. Originally I thought I would need to revert to stock firmware D80010d? However now I have been told I can just use ioRoot25 and then flash Cloudyfa's AutoRec recovery? Is that correct?
I'm going to get at this, this afternoon but obviously it would save a lot of work if I could just use ioRoot25 but as I said, I want a custom recovery also so I can flash a non-stock rom.
Please let me know what would work, and what works best.. Thanks, Chris.
I've went ahead and downloaded supersports tool to revert to stock D80010d. I haven't actually ran it yet, because I want to wait on input from people in this thread. However, it seems like rooting with ioRoot on D80010d, flashing custom recovery, and than flashing a ROM would be the way to go.. It is my understand that currently it is no yet possible with KK to have custom recoveries? Being on stock KK doesn't do anything for me anyway.. I'll probably just flash a asop based ROM running 4.4.2 anyway and go that way with it.. So it would work like this..
Currently on D80020c (KK) --> Revert to stock, D80010d (JB) --> Root using ioRoot (any verison would work I guess?) --> ADB flash over either CWR, TWRP, or Philz recovery? --> Get some 4.4 based rom with gapps, flash it and all is well? Then I will be rooted and romed with a kitkat based rom correct? And all in time for the weekend?? lol.
Right on. Use ioroot25, but apart from that you've got it all figured out. You're right there is no recovery for pure kk because they patched the Loki exploit, but there are work arounds. Everything you need to know about rooting and flashing had been covered here so just go ahead and do your thing and enjoy your new phone :good:
Hi there
I have a lg g2 802 from the UK. I upgraded to stock 4.4.2 OTA and then installed paranoid android ROM. I made a nandroid backup before this.
I now want to go back to stock. What is the best way? Can I just restore my backup from recovery?
Any advice appreciated!
Thanks!
Hello everyone, I need a little help.
I already posted this in the sprint section, but couldn't get much help there, and did not know if this was a problem with a lot of G2. If anyone could shed any light on this, I would appriciate it very much!
Now I am not new to the rooting ordeal. I have been rooting ever since my old EVO 4G (yes, with those dreaded boot loaders.) My personal phone is running Paranoid Android RC2 (Optimus G) so I know about the standard wiping process for ROMs.
I have successfully rooted my friends G2 (Sprint) and I had TWRP on it, but the TWRP failed to make backups, so now I have Philz Touch (the custom CWM) on it and it backups fine.
My problem is when I try to flash a custom AOSP ROM, the phone only boots to the LG logo. My friend really wants Cyanogenmod on his phone but it refuses to boot. I have searched for an answer but have no idea. This is the first time I have been truly stumped. Other times after some work I figured it out but this one I do not get. Here are all the details:
Sprint LG G2 (LS980)
Kitkat Modem/Update (stock 4.4.2)
Stock ZVC
Rooted by the Autorec.apk. Root works just fine.
Philz touch recovery.
I have even found an AOSP modem you can flash in recovery, but that was no dice. Even messed up the backup on Philz and it wouldn't get past sprint screen until I flashed KK modem.
I have tried many different nightlys/Msnapshots and Mahdi ROM and it won't boot.
Is there something I am missing?
Thanks again for any help guys

Flash the modem for the ZV8 release and you will be good to boot CM. I flashed CM11 a couple weeks ago and ran into the same thing. As soon as I flashed the ZV8 modem, CM booted right up. When going back to a ZVC build, you'll need to flash the ZVC modem. That includes a backup. You can find the needed modem zips in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451426. Also, CM just released a snapshot (stable) version today so if that's not what you have to flash, go get it.
hi guys, after having tryed a lot of roms i have decided to return back to stock rom with root and maybe with a diffferent kernel, so this is the question: where i can find a recovery flashable zip of the latest stock kk for d802? thanks a lot
my guess would be the 802 section
Title says most of it. I backed up my d800 lp stock and put cloudyfa g2 2.2. Now do i need to flash anything else after i restore back to lp? Like a baseband? Thanks
