UPDATE: WOLF HAS RELEASED TW 007.2 THAT INCLUDES THE zKernel.
Thanks to that, the process is much more simpler now. Just flash the files as it says in the Wolf thread.
Mods, please close this. Thanks to all who used this and hopefully this helped you in 007.1

Thanks...guide is updated
3.Go to settings-About phone. If, under kernel version, it says anything other than "2.6.29-zKernel-23062011 [email protected]#1", then you will have to do this.
Navigate to system/kernel using root explorer or similar app. DELETE boot.froyo.img, and RENAME boot.img to boot.froyo.img. Restart.
If it shows that kernel version, then skip this step.

Thanks a lot for this awesome guide. Im sure it will be very helpful to many users.
I followed ur guide to install custom kernel on WB TW007 with baseband .67.
But Im stuck on step 3. After flashing boot.img in Xrec I couldnt see custom kernel version in About Phone so I navigated to system/kernel using root explorer. There was only just one file named boot.img. So I renamed it to boot.froyo.img, rebooted but still get the stock kernel version in About Phone
Any kind of help will be greatly appreciated

hmm...I'm assuming that you have Stock kernel, right?
First, try re-flashing the boot.img file, but first wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik cache, then do the whole replacement an renaming. If that doesn't work, then try this:
(Thanks Haldi4803)
3. Restart Phone and enter X Recovery: Install first: "chargemon_FXRec_default_CUSTOM.zip" and then "bootloader_bypass_files_v2.zip"
Then, install the kernel on top of that while still in xRecovery. So, you would have installed all 3 files together . Please report back if it works so I can add this step in the OP.
^ Yes! Im on stock kernel. Sorry for not being clear.
Aiight. Im trying what u said right now and will report back.
EDIT: Nope. Nothing worked. Flashing all 3 files didnt work. On the other hand phone started lagging like hell after flashing. Its not responsive at all and Im constantly getting FC on System Process etc
Any thing else??
Hi everyone, dude, I tried follow u tutorial, but this didn't work (ok ok, I'm noob, i tried start this with Stock kernel...). Then I installed TW007.1 with Custom Kernel and didn't appears Custom kernel.. ok, i tried to install Z's custom kernel, following u tutorial and nothing again
What should I do?????

u were most probably using xRecovery... flash FreeXperia recovery using FLASHTOOL and then try those files...
BTW if u use "chargemon_FXRec_default_CUSTOM.zip" then u dont need to do any renaming cause that files uses standard boot.img file name
cat /system/kernel/boot.img > /proc/splboot/boot_img
^ For some reason my Xrec is broken and I cant get into Xrec so I tried to install Rec thru Flashtool. It isnt working either
Insall Recovery option is disabled. I click on Ask Permissions, it says allow Superuseraccess on the phone but nothing happens on the phone. I cant do anything on the phone as it keeps FC Process System. It sometimes even doesnt detect USB conncetion
Is the SEUS repair the only option???

sadly, yes. I'm sorry about your phone, I wasn't sure if it would work with the stock kernel. another option could be to install the 3. 52 kernel first before following my instructions, or wait for wolf to officially release a kernel.
again, sorry about causing you to do a full repair
Na u dont need to be sorry. U were trying to help. I might've done something wrong or it was a bad day for me after all. Im repairing thru SEUS right now. Might give it another try in a day or two if WB doesnt officially release a Zkernel supported version of his rom.
But thanks once again for everything and keep up the good work
To those on the stock kernel,
Try to install the 3.51 kernel first, found here, then follow my instructions.
You won't get signal after installing the 3.51 kernel but that's ok, since it's meant for BB52 anyway. Your BB might become unknown as well.
That's what I do on a fresh install
Get baseband .67 first then
1) Fresh install TW007 stock kernel
2) Reboot and check for signal
2) Flash 007.1 update
3) Reboot
4) Flash transparent add-on (Optional)
5) Reboot
6) Flash zKernel_22062011.zip
9) Reboot and you will have the custom kernel but system keep on crashing and no signal
10) So I just reboot and flash this two files by DoomLord
Download link: (boot.img only)

[VIMP NOTE FOR FROYO USERS who do not see any change in custom kernel after flashing the boot.img]
Download link: (wifi.ko module only)
http://www.mediafire.com/?lmh46quh490mzme
VERIFIED WIFI WORKS!
11) Signal is back and system doesn't crash
12) Reboot
13) Flash Contacts_ProSE _FIXED.zip & fb.zip
Thanks to them.

If that's working for me, I don't have to change right? Only problem is when overclocking to 1113mhz and playing games, it will WLOD when it's get too hot. Playing games for 3hrs non-stop and only one WLOD is normal right?
The updated kernel will not fix that right?

guys I changed my dpi with this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.texdroider.texdroider_dpi&hl=en
textdroider dpi now i am in a boot loop
my phone is rooted but i dont have any custom recovery installed on it.
I took a backup on my sdcard of that build.prop and i guess the app gets one also but is there a way I can change the faulty one?
As I said I only had stock recovery is it possible to adb with that? Or is my only chance is to flash stock rom again
as it is described on this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
if so which rom should I download I live in Australia and got and Australian stock phone. Should I download d802 Asia?
Thanks for all the help I would really appreciate if I can save it without losing my data but if thats the only way what can I do.
I hope you have a custom ROM or the ROM you have already flashed. Just make a flashable zip with the build.prop placed in /system/ .
flash it through recovery and you are back again..
Or just flash your Rom again. Should fix the issue

So am I right about flashing my phone by following the steps on the topic I mentioned in my first post?
Is this what you mean by flashing trought recovery because that dude says download mode.
BTW I cant flash trought lg's utility I dont know if its related or not but windows cant install CDC driver.
Also when I flash the rom am I going to lose my data.
Thanks for your answers guys really appericate it.
Just adb the build.prop...
No, download mode it's a form of diagnostic mode, recovery doesn't matter.
You will lose everything. Read and learn, test and perform, only you can make yourself not a noob.

How can I adb the build.prop ?
I can only go into LG G2 Stock recovery mode and download mode. There is no custom recovery installed so I cant open debugging and adb doesnt recognize the device.
Am i doing something wrong? and believe me I have been reading for hours
I can't explain it much further, your gonna have to search forums. There was a recent thread on this with koushs driver and some lines to force recognize. I don't remember were or what.

I bootlooped changing my dpi as well. I was stock rooted with no custom recovery. I followed the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2471370&highlight=unbrick and was able to get my phone to work again. FYI, it may install the latest firmware for your phone, even if it's not OTA yet, and ioroot might not support it yet if it does. I have a d801 and it installed the latest firmware, although it wasn't OTA yet. Hope this helps.

Ahh mate it would probably helped because my support tool couldnt recognize my device as d802 but instead l02e or l20e sth like that with united driver but I reckon those are the drivers I was looking for unfortunately I dont have the phone anymore.
I turned the phone back to the warranty today not giving any explanation to try my luck. they may just do this same procedure and just flash stock rom on the service and send it back to me or they might just say this is rooted its out of warranty either case I will let them deal with it if they say this is out of warranty I will ask them to fix it and I am willing to pay if they quote me something reasonable if they dont I will try this.
Thank you very much for your answer.

Guys I just wanted to give you update on the matter. Today I called the repair centre and they told me they have fixed the phone and send it back yesterday so I should be able to get it in couple of days maybe this friday or next week monday something like that. They didnt say anything about root or warranty or stuff like that. When I get the phone back what can I do prevent this from happening again? Do I need to flash a custom recovery on the phone? What is the risk of doing that? Or should I just root the phone and not mess with the system files ever again
Thanks heaps for all your inputs.
Got the phone today they changed the motherboard. I am not sure if it is a good thing or a bad thing :/ On the good side it is fixed for good on the flipside the phone has been opened now so thats not so good. I have checked the body coudlnt find too many stracthes or sth like that they did a clean job but still.
Anyway that was the last update.
Hi guys, I will try and explain this as simple as possible.
I as trying to install cyanogenmod 11 on my phone, and everything seemed to go alright until I made a mistake. I used TWRP to first backup my stock rom on the phone, and then when I was supposed to reboot into the app, I accidently rebooted the phone.
Now the problem is that the phone does not have any OS installed, so what is happening is that it's trying to boot into an OS that's not there, and instead ends up being stuck on the Samsung logo. I can enter Odin mode just fine, but for the love of god I cannot seem to figure how to get back into the TWRP application, or if it is even possible.
I do have the backup of the ROM stored on my SD card, and I've now moved it over to my PC, but it still does not seem to help me in any way. I've trid to launch the Odin3 program on my pc, in an attempt to to try and launch in TWRP through that, but it has all been without any success, so now I come to this board of guinesses, asking for help!
As an added bit of information, this was my first time trying to install a custom rom, so yeah.. Puff..
- The lost Dane.
- Edit -
I tried to "flash" by doing what this link said, in the hopes that my phone would boot into the program, but alas, it only booted back to the logan saying "samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005" :/
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30694404
-- Edit Edit --
To make it super clear ... If I could get back into TWRP, I would be able to run my backup. I know how that app works, I just simply cannot get back into, and I do not know if it is even possible. I've searched and tried various guides to "flash TWRP through Odin" but it has all been without any success... :/

Did you hold volume up+home+power button to get into recovery mode?
In case your twrp get corrupted due to flashing failure previously
1. Download twrp from the following. 2.6.3.7 if you were running 4.3 or 2.6.3.8 if you were running 4.4.2(not sure if 2
6.3.8 is 4.3 compatible). For odin flashable use the one with .tar
http://www.techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/hlte
2. Get into download mode(vol down+home+power)
3. Link the downloaded .tar to pda in odin. Odin log should show 'added' once you connect phone to pc
4. Start the process. Once finish phone should boot into recovery automatically but it'll try to boot back into OS. Just hold vol up+home+power button to get back into recovery

When I do that, I get an ultra short blue text appearing on the screen, before it goes into downloading mode, with a red text saying "Could not do normal boot." So it basically goes right into odin mode.

You are an absolute god. I wish I could show my appreciation, but I fear words isn't even enough to even begin.. I managed to get into TWRP now, though my backup rom doesn't show up anymore, but I suppose that's because I run a different version of TWRP than I did first? Idk, but really appreciate that you were able to get me back into TWRP.

I really do appreciate the help you've given, but I have one final request, and I really do hope it isn't too much to ask. Say I am unable to find the same version of TWRP, I will have to actually flash cyanogenmod onto my device. I don't think it should be too tough now that I've managed to launch into TWRP, because now I should be able to just put the rom on my SD card, and then install the files, no?
if it helps you, my device is SM-N9005, and I had 4.3 when I started this whole thing. Cheers!

I tried to download the Nighty build from CyanogenMod's own homepage, but when I try and install it, it says failed, giving me an erro that says "This package is for "hlexx" devices: This is a." That's all it says ... Hmfh. Sooooooooo... Yes! I'm in recovery mode now, but without any rom. :/

Yes you can flash any cm based rom.
You can also flash any stock rom such as SweetRom/X-Note/BobCat as most developers still keeping 4.3 rom in their thread.

So after having spent the better half of the night, I actually managed to get my phone to boot into cyanogenmod 11 ! But that joy was shortlived when I came to realize that wi-fi wasn't working, and I couldn't get it to work. I tried to factory reset as I had read would help, but alas it did no good. I figured I should try and run back a stock 4.4.2 rom and just be done with it, but that was when I realized I had lost my root (?!) so that wasn't really a possibility either, next I set out to try and find a way to root my phone now running cyanogenmod 11. I found a file here on XDA called "CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.tar" but whenever I try and flash that onto my phone, my phone just stays stuck saying "trying to enter into recovery mode" and does not really go anywhere from there. I can get back into recovery mode if I flash "n9005-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.5(1116)" onto the phone, like you said, but that still leaves me without root access, which I need to throw a rom onto my device?! Arrrgh, this is getting silly, I just wish I could go back to my backup/ default rom on the device, but I can't.

I figured I should try and run back a stock 4.4.2 rom and just be done with it, but that was when I realized I had lost my root (?!) so that wasn't really a possibility either, next I set out to try and find a way to root my phone now running cyanogenmod 11. I found a file here on XDA called "CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.tar" but whenever I try and flash that onto my phone, my phone just stays stuck saying "trying to enter into recovery mode" and does not really go anywhere from there. I can get back into recovery mode if I flash "n9005-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.5(1116)" onto the phone, like you said, but that still leaves me without root access, which I need to throw a rom onto my device?! Arrrgh, this is getting silly, I just wish I could go back to my backup/ default rom on the device, but I can't.

About the cf auto root make sure you flash the one for 4.3. I believe you flashed the one for 4.4.2.
Doesn't really matter whether you have root access or not as long as you can boot into custom recovery. Just flash any custom rom. It'll give you root anyway.
Still if you need root just make sure you flash cf auto root then flash twrp or chenglu recovery. Flash the one for 4.3 that's the most important

But when I have cyanogenmod 11 installed, is that then not 4.4.2 ? I suppose that's what's giving me trouble... I'll try and see if I can find the cf auto root for 4.3 and return back if I was successful or not. Again, thank you for being so patient..
-Edit
This seems to be the only one I can find; http://download.chainfire.eu/352/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.zip
And I've already tried that one 3 times, but every time I flash it, the phone reboots and keeps trying to enter into recovery mode, and is unable to do so before I've flashed n9005-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.5(1116) again
this is what it says;
"recovery booting...

You flashed 4.4.2 cm rom but you're on 4.3 booloader. So you need to use cf auto root for 4.3 which is available here

Just enter download mode and reflash twtp. I saw there are 4 different versions for 4.3(2.6.3.0/2 6.3.5/2.6.3.6/2.3.6.7). Flash 1 by 1 and see if it can restore your backup

You really are a boss with a heart of gold! I used the file you linked me, ran it, and sure enough it installed and gave me root access. Believe it or not, but I am learning from this! The whole thing about bootloader being different from the rom version was new to me. But I am up and running with root access now, so now I hope it shouldn't be too hard to get a stock rom thrown in. I've kinda given up on my backup. I no longer care for the files I had before, now I just want the phone up and running with wifi.. X_ X
- Edit
Or do you have any clue as to what is causing wifi to not work? I really don't mind the rom at all, I quite like it, but where I live wifi is mandatory as it's a lowered area with mountains around me, meaning LTE really isn't viable while at home.

Not sure about the wifi problem but yes you're good to go with a new rom. Make sure to choose only for 4.3 bootloader else you will run into problem later

Could you be so kind and to link me to a rom that works for 4.3 bootloader? I am so paranoid I'll end up picking something for 4.4.2, like I was about to do now. :S

Alright.. Time to get things done right! So just being sure I do it alright. I pick this one; http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2498687
Download the one for 4.3 bootloader, once download I place the zip folder on my SD card
- Then boot into Recovery mode, wipe phone clean, and then install the rom directly from inside of Recovery mode?
I tried to install custom recovery file provided fom a youtube video for my LG G2 D802 international version (cant post the link cause i am new, but the youtube user name is Phone Tech Kid, the video is titled: "LG G2: How To Install Custom Recovery (Easy Method)"
Here is a screenshot with the error message (simply copy and paste in your browser):
s14.directupload.net/images/140506/ii7j2kgp.png
The problem is that after successfully installing the recovery file i cant even go into recovery mode on reboot anymore. The phone is bricked :crying:
I didnt pay attention that the video is from 11.2013 and my device had the 4.4.2 KitKat from end ot March, seems that has caused the brick.
PLEASE help

that video is outdated and would never work on kitkat if you want custom recovery and can still boot into your phone(android os) then try AutoRec it is the easiest/only way to get recovery on kit kat

Yes i used the power+volume up button combination and it went in download mode, than the screen changed and showed "Firmware update" beneath it: "Do not unplug the USB connection until the prcess is complete." Is this the donwload mode?
The link with the recovery back to stock ROM seems complicated with lot of steps. Can i instead go for a google edition rom (such as EHNDROIX V) instead of the stock ROM at this stage?

yes that's download mode and that is not like flashing a rom through recovery that is the only way to get your phone back to working condition and method 3 is a batch file which does it all for you

Thanks a ton for helping me.
I guess i need to accomplish those 3 steps:
1.2). Firmware Files HERE! KitKat 4.4.2 Firmwares
1.3). Download R&D FlashTool (offline fix) & LGMOBILEAX: HERE & HERE
1.4).Download Drivers - Click Here
Than Method 3 from the link you provided.
How do i do it exactly? Drivers i have already installed the rom is downloded. Step 1.3 is not clear how it works togehter with Method 3?

after you install the r&d tool and lgmobilelax you just have to run the batch in method 3 and everything should be done automatically

Thank you, thanks a lot.
Rooting worked, checked it afterwards with an root check app.
Also installed the AutoRec successfully with the apk file, i did run it after inszallation and everything. But i want to test it whether it is there, how can i check it? I held the power+down keys but its an white screen: "Factory hard reset" below it: "Permanently Erase user Data & Reset settings?" and below this: "Press power key to confirm, and any other key to cancel". Seems not like recovery with a lot of options touch buttons and things. How can i check for correct installation of the AutoRec?

oh to confirm if custom recovery installed correctly on the factory reset screen click power button 3 times and it should boot into custom recovery or download an app from playstore like rom manager and use the option reboot into recovery

Here, guys. Linking to a thread from a Chinese forum.
And it's not a troll thread! I decided to be brave and flash it! Yayyy! I now have Lollipop on my G3 F400K version but WiFi doesn't turn on as of now. And no root.
Shall use it for the better part of the day and post here.
http://www.cnanzhi.com/romdetail/4919
I cannot understand how to use that... can u help me?
It's pretty straightforward.. Download the three files in the link provided above and flash them from your custom recovery.
Use Google translate for every link.
I've got this on my phone since the last 5 hours and I haven't used it much for bug testing. But the phone works perfectly and the software is a daily driver for sure!
Did you flash modem? Is WiFi working well?
Didn't flash any extra modem. Wifi not turning on. See the first post.
That's only bug I see as of now.
I think modem can help that problem... I ll try. I hope this file won't wreck my recovery partition as 19c did...
And sorry for my bad English

is it really for F400K ? I dont think that, it look like a ported from D855
I also saw a ported package from F400S at http://www.fshare.vn/file/1CMRFVXM4A/ (I flashed and it worked - 1 week ago - I back to stock 4.4.2 to wait for OTA)
where did you get that link can u share the forums?

I think you're screwed since you're running the new bootloader (or kernel, not sure) you can't downgrade, and since there isn't lollipop for f400k you need to wait

Have you tried a "adb reboot recovery"? My f400k on cloudy won't enter bump recovery with any of the usual start up sequences I have found. The only way I can do it is with reboot to recovery on the restart menu or "adb reboot recovery" maybe yours is the same?
Mine boots into stock recovery.
I don't even have root.
Kdz method doesn't work because Flash toll recognizes the phone has a d855.
Flashing a d855 dll is suicide.

Heyy mine is like yours, I can't enter recovery when on boot. But can enter with a app or menu (tweakbox).
How do I fix this? I am afraid of bootloops and want to get into recovery when I get one.

Please let me know if you find out.
