No you can run the stock LG rom. If you want AOSP though you have to root, loki, and flash recovery and flash a rom

Hi,
LG G2 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock). I tested on D802 and it works flawlessly.

So there is no posible way to get reid of the root sign in download mode?
and if you need to get it to service will they check if it was rooted?

[Q] Can rooted be updated to kitkat stock?

I'm planning to root my LG G2 D802 and use a custom rom to have a kitkat experience. but before rooting my phone, i want to know if is it still possible to update my phone to the ORIGINAL KitKat update using the OTA update by LG or i will be stocked to the custom rom once i rooted my phone?
Once you put a custom recovery on it in order to install a custom ROM, you can no longer take an OTA update. Odds are very good that the stock ROM, once out, will be available to install the same way you install a custom ROM, but OTA's are out once you have a custom recovery.
Sure it can be done, you just need to restore tour phone to stock firmware.

you can use the update tool your phone has the installer for,
you connect your phone to the pc and it says connected as installer,
install the program and update with it, it uses download, bypassing the recovery

[Q] Flashing Kit Kat Based Custom ROM

Hi ,
I just got my G2 Yesterday , rooted and flash TWRP right away on the stock 4.2.2 . I am tempted to try out some Kit Kat based custom roms now. I have a few questions
1-) Can i directly flash KK based custom rom ( after a full wipe of 4.2.2 ) ?
2-) Would i be able to go back to my stock rom via nandroid after KK custom rom ? i.e going into recover and flashing the backup again ? ( heard there are not custom recoveries for KK ? )

1-) Yes, kinda. Just look for instructions in OP of the roms. This one works pretty well: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2667714 (Only D802 there are LG KK Roms for other variants though, just search the forums)
2-) No, there's no custom recovery for 4.4.2 yet, but devs are getting close. Read more about that here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2667227
Edit: One more thing: You can of course flash AOSP 4.4.2 roms and will keep custom recovery.

So if i understand correctly. There would be no going back from a KK based rom except using the LG tool to flash the stock KDZ right ?

Only AOSP? I just got this phone and I'm familiar with adb and the rooting/recovery process but does this mean I could install a 4.4.2 version of cyanogen or paranoid android or BeanStalk over 4.2.2 and keep my custom recovery?

This depends on your variant. The D800 kitkat has been moded to allow a mixed match of partitions that allows the previous loki enabled recovery to run. This was released yesterday But Is only possible thanks to the release of the kernel source for the D800 from LG. Other variants will follow. In fact the D800 versions from AndroidUser0011001 and garyd9 will flash from your custom recovery, no LG Flashtool required

Thanks guys !
I think its better to stick with stock rooted for now and jump to KK when all the necessary stuff is made available. So that jumping between KK and JB is easy .

[Q] LS-980 ZVC compatible roms

Hey everyone I currently have a LS-980 on stock KK rooted with ioroot25 and twrp'ed using autorec.
What roms out there (if any) are compatible with ZVC? Stock KK is ok but after trying out the Pacman
Rom when I was on JB I just love the kind of vanilla android feel more and I want that back lol. But
don't really want to go through the whole process of downgrading right now. So if you guys could point
me to a rom that is definitely ZVC compatible it would be much appreciated. Thanks
zvc dark ui rom
The only dark ui rom i have found to work on my ls980 is CARBON

Not to get off topic
My phone came stock ZVC as well, I downgraded to ZV8 and added CM11. Now I want to go CM11 to 2-Faced Rom or another ZVD or ZVC compatible rom however, when I try to flash the proper files to do so I get stuck in a bootloop. Any help? I have also tried flashing the newest dormanx kernel did not uplift the bootloop. My only real want is to run a rom that has LG stock apps and a working hotspot mod that uses the triband radio the phone is fully capable of.

How do i unroot lg g2

I have d901 running cloudy g3. I want to unroot my rom back to stock like how it came in the box. Can i just use lg mobile support tool by itself. I would prefer wiping all internal storage. One issue. I have a d801 model running d803 baseband and twrp. So how would i be able to unroot my phone.
