This might help you out. You need a minimum of twrp 2.6.3.3 to flash kitkat

Hi all, I have a LG G2 from Videotron model LG-D801, variant D801V11B. I pretty sure it is the same model for WIND user. I got it rooted with the chinese method. I did not find any TWRP image for this device so I tried some and finally got it working with the openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.2-g2rog.img, every other image/version i tried put me in a black screen with white character saying something like: [760] Fastboot mode started \n[800] udc_start(). I think I tried every version i could find up to 2.6.3.7.
Now each time I try to install a custom rom on my device i get this error: error executing updater binary... And it seems that I am unable to find any custom roms that was developed for my phone. I was wondering if a section could be made for the canadian version of this phone and if someone could help me put a custom roms on it. Ho i wish I could put paranoid android or hellfire kitkat on it tired of the stock rom
Thanks in advance
Same here... I'm stuck in fasboot mode with access to CWRM from D803. I can install a modified version of CM11, but after boot it goes back to fastboot. All other ROMs I tried so far fail.
Anybody successfully flashed a 4.4.X rom on this variant ?

Got here late but better late than never. In theory D801 is a D803, and every d803 rom should work on it. Paranoid has a version for d803 that has worked pretty well on my phone but I wouldnt recommend it. There is a workaround for installing d802 roms on this phone by changing the updater script and afterwards flashing a d803 kernel.
I could make you a zip with any d802 rom (cm11, aokp, probam, etc) that could work on your phone without flashing any additional files. Just tell me what rom you prefer and what kernel and done

If I am correct currently you are running 2.6.3.2 and are trying to flash a kk based aosp Rom well the problem is the recovery it won't flash it because it's before the kk binary, the only way to be able to flash the Rom is to find twrp 2.6.3.3 or higher

Your "D801" is really a D803. Use the tools in this thread.
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 Guys, I am fairly new to flashing and rooting. Have successfully done on my Galaxy S5 and now trying on my Note 3 - N9005. I tried flashing a latest 4.4 rom - Echoe rom and it got stuck in Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Logo. Now i have flashed stock rom (Australian Vodafone) running 4.3. My question is since i am trying to flash a 4.4.2 rom, do i need to do anything specific or just flash TWRP and install a custom rom? i noticed there were 2 versions of TWRP one ofr 4.3 and one for 4.4. I am confused as to since i am on 4.3 version do I flash TWRP 4.3 version? or since i am looking to flash 4.4 rom should i install TWRP 4.4 at first place?

you need 4.4 twrp. It should be 2.7.1 I think. you also need to me sure the Rom is compatible with your phone.

During my first try, i had TWRP for 4.3, which allowed me to flash Echoe Rom based on 4.4 (latest version) for N9005, it even showed me success notification but it never booted past Samsung logo. I then flashed TWRP 4.4 version, but it then wouldn't boot in recovery. i reflashed TWRP 4.3 version and as last resort i had to flash stock firmware.
I will now flash TWRP 4.4 version at first instance and try flashing a rom again. maybe will try a different rom. Thanks for your suggestion :good:
This should be in Q and A don't be surprised if this thread gets closed ..

hello there.
u were sayin u r on 4.3 JB rom.
ur device is N9005 international 32gb right?
let me tell u 1 thing which is a good thing to remember.
4.4 rom will need a 4.4 bootloader.
since u r on 4.3, u must be on 4.3 bootloader which is incompatible with 4.4 rom. flashing twrp for kitkat won't help.
steps that u need to take (easiest) :
1. download 4.4.2 stock firmware.
2. flash with odin v3.09
3. root with cf autoroot (download the KK version)
3. flash custom recovery for KK version (twrp/cwm/ philz). I personally prefer cwm as it has give me less trouble for any custom rom.
4. u can flash any 4.4.2 custom rom now.

THANK YOU!!! This makes lot of sense.:good: I will upgrade to KK first, then custom recovery and then rom. One question? 4.4 is not yet available for my carrier in Australia. can I download and install the Poland version that is floating around internet. Or would you recommend some other.

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.
Don't Know what I am doing wrong. This is my forth phone I've rooted and installed custom roms. I just upgraded from lollypop to Marshmellow, I was running moar rom on lollypop, no problems.
After I upgraded I lost root access so I re-rooted. But now I can not seem to have success on installing a new rom, I've tried two different roms. I follow the instructions and it begins to load and just sits there, even after a good 20 minutes or so. I'm figuring I'm missing something here, please help. My stasts: ,Sprint carreir, model sm-G900P, build MMB29M.G900PVPU3CPCA
