I've been trying to get Paranoid Android running on my D800 but I'm constantly stuck on the boot animation. I let it sit for quite a while. I've used 3 different modems and none seem to do the trick. Does anyone know where I can get a stock KK modem for the D800?
Free cookies for the first to help! Or brownies. Maybe cupcakes? Pie? Everyone likes pie. No, not the Pie controls in custom roms. Square dancing? Okay I'm not making sense now.
Never mind, I found it.
SEARCH, YOU NOOBER.

Hey guys I have not seen this in the Q&A section and I want to make sure I do it right.
I only recently rooted my Nexus 7, been running stock but decided I wanted to have Multi Windows like I have on my Note 4. I have not decided on a ROM as I was looking for the best one so I am still running Stock Rooted 5.0.2 I saw Omni ROM and I think that this would be the best ROM to attempt this as I tried the Xposed method and of course got the boot loop.
I see that currently on OmniROM.com that this device is still running on KK 4.4.4 according to the nightlies. I assume I would need to find a KK stock ROM and flash it on to my Nexus to downgrade back to KK in order to install this ROM, or will this install with TWRP even though I'm running Lollipop?
If so does someone have a quick link to the Stock KK files? I used Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit to root my device as I did not feel like going through the same hassel as when I rooted my Droid RAZR so I would just tell that to use those files instead.
I am always flashing ROMs on my Note 4 but I have never gone backwards and I think it was possible to install KK ROM once you upgrade to lolly but not use a lolly ROM if your still on KK.

I don't think anyone has done a compatibility check to see what happens if you run a 4.4 build on a device with 5.x bootloaders. It might work, it might do weird things (usually with sensors/wifi)
Multiwindow never got merged, if you want it you'll have to build for yourself and cherrypick it. There were some remaining issues with the patch we never had time to fix, we got too busy with other stuff, and xplodwild wants to rewrite the whole thing after finding a better way to implement it.
Hello,
I know dual boot and multirom! And I'm struggling a lot with multirom, can't get it to work... I can't find the "right" kernel, some files in the thread are dead and so on.. The thread seems kind of dead to me. I was trying for days now.
So is there somebody out there, who can provide us with working links / files and an short working instruction how we can boot different roms?
My device is D802. I don't care if my priamry ROM will be a Kitkat Stock or Resurrection Rom...
I'd be very grateful! Thank you!
Can somebody who really has an overview tell us if there is a way for multi boot on the G2 at all...
As I read on, I get the impression that it's not possible because of the locked bootloeader but then I don't understad why there was a thread about multirom... And I can't read pages of the multirom thread, it's too much
We need somebody with more experience here
Thanks again
I remember that someone talk about multiboot and say that lg g2 can boot only aosp ROM with another aosp or stock and another stock because of locked bootlader

ok, thx, ****ty news :/
Also found this, but as too often, no summary, understable instructions - so for only a little circle of devs themselves in the end. That's kind of bitter.

It says e.g. you have fo flash a modem and there's a link with many different modems. So if you are not really deep in it, it is hardly usable. Also it semms to me that you have to read the whole thing to have a clue, the fiest post isn't updated (probably -on first glance)
Too bad. But I'm sticking on this. I want the multi/dual boot.
Hi.i have lg g2 d800 32gig.it was with stock 4.4.2 and from time. To time it freeze and restart itself. I install. Cm 12.1 lolipop snapshot.and it keep doing it,every houer or so.i even unolugged the motherbord and installed again.what is the prob??
Probably one or more than one apps causing this.
Try another rom. I never use CM base, let alone a snapshot/nightly. Install Resurrection Remix M, it's based on CM stable and is faster and has more features.
But the device also restart. With the stock rom 4.4.2. Is there maybe prob in the motherbord?

could it be or maybe a stuck or sticky power button?
Hi,idont think its asticky power,because it happends 6-8times aday.not all the time.i dont know how to fix this prob...
boot stack
I had the same problem. Install boot stack first then flash CM then gapps.
More likely its a hardware issues. Or May be something has to relate with Bootstacks.
I have lost My G2, In no point return mode! So move on with other device. Honesty G2 isn't made for all people. That's all I can say.
I need some help, anyone, please! I have a Lg G2 VS980, rooted supersu by chainfire version 2.79 latest, i guess. twrp 3.2.0-1 by blastagator, and running resurrection remix 5.4.7(Lollipop 5.1.1) from stock rom VS98024a which i pushed with lgtool14, i believe. From stock VS98011a which i also installed a year ago when my ParanoidAndroid os Lollipop rom 5.1.1 just stopped working all together dont know why, still. tried flashing over that with lollipop CrDroid rom Lollipop 5.1.1 when the phone bricked. So I proceeded to start from scratch again learning as i go, im kinda good like that sometimes. so i did all of this all is working well and good again, except for one thing, when I try to flash any custom marshmallow even nougat roms they install like the lollipop ones fine, matching micro Gapps packages every time for marshmallow and nougat roms. wipe the dalvik and cache properly, all is good til reboot of the system. Lg logo comes up then black screen and nothing else ever, Ive let it sit for hours and nothing. i dont know what i am missing here i know its possible to go past lollipop but im at a loss here. ive searched til my eyes bleed but there is no comprehensive guide on how this is accomplished and what to do with the black screen issue im facing. i dont know if i need to do a bootstack change or something else i dont know about. If i could get some guidance here maybe a solution to this issue. hell i dont care if i got to start from scratch again. something guys. if you need any info i havent provided ask. and yes i have all the proper latest drivers, adb, fastboot, and even latest android studio from google, which i dont have a clue as to how to use. im not a noob but by no means a developer, lol.
I've been running Cloudy G2.2 for a year an a half. It's given the phone enough legs to mostly make it through 2017. However, about every other week I have to restore my latest backup when Bluetooth stops working because it saw too many devices. This wouldn't be terrible if it wasn't for Authy refusing to sync my newer 2-Factor auth accounts. I think I've convinced myself that the G6 (US997) is my next phone, but now is a silly time to buy as the price should drop like a rock as the next wave of flagships come out.
I'm hoping to make it another couple months and was wondering anyone's experiences moving from Cloudy G2.2 (or other ROMs) to the latest lineage? From what I've read, it's very stable. However, I'm on Kit Kat bootloader, so it doesn't seem like this will be a straightforward process. I was hoping to get some experiences from people who made the same move before starting.
I currently have:
LG G2 D800
Root using stumproot (I think, it's been a while) with supersu installed
TWRP 2.7.0.0 installed by autorec
Cloudy G2.2 KOT49I
So, after some research, I set off to install LineageOS. In hindsight, this might have been a bad idea since it specifically only mentions the D802 in the title. However, it listed links for D800 builds, though they were crossed out.
I updated TWRP to this version by Blastagator and that was painless. I then wiped the phone, made a fresh backup and flashed the latest nightly of LineageOS, and the latest GApps (Mini) for 7.1. That was disappointing since I got the quick "LG logo" followed by a blank screen, that I later found was mentioned in the same Lineage post. Should've read farther.
I think the issue is that I'm on the wrong bootloader. I thought I was on KitKat which the post requires, but in order to enter recovery, I have to press enter three times (rather than using volume buttons to navigate), which indicates I'm on JellyBean bootloader.
So, this is the scary step that I was hoping to avoid. My big fear is that I run Linux on my desktop, so I can't use the LG Flash Tool. As long as I can keep a working recovery, I have backups, so I'm fairly safe. Following the Blastagator bootloader post, I'm not really sure how you go back and forth between bootloaders so easily as it suggests. Is that really as simple as loading the zip file on the phone and installing it in TWRP?
Is there a safer way to handle this?
From my experience, it is that easy. Simply install the zip file and you have loaded a new boot loader. Also, I was in the same boat as you with Cloudy rom and moved to Nougat with crDroid. However it's not stable and I am considering looking for something else more stable but fast like crDroid.

When you updated your bootloader, were you still able to run the Cloudy ROM before you switched to crDroid? Once I flash the KitKat bootloader, am I only able to use the Nougat ROMs? My big concern is that there might be something a bit off with my bootloader, so I won't be able to get back to TWRP.
I think there's something a bit off with my bootloader as is, because about a year ago I flashed back to stock Jellybean, and took all the OTA updates. However, when the phone tried to take the KitKat update, it softbricked, and could only be recovered using the LG Update Tool, which I don't have access to anymore. Because of this, I'm a little worried that just dropping on the Blastagator KitKat bootloader may have some atypical issues.
i m using it for a while. u know, on Los you won't be able to use lg features such as qslide, qmemo, plug&pop, knockcode etc. Only worth it if you want your phone to look a little bit fresher and lighter or you need a newer android version for some reason. Else, don't take the risk if you can't use flashtool. You can consider installing another kitkat rom. There are lots and they are nice :]

My primary issue is that KitKat (or whatever Cloudy G2.2 is?) has the old Android bluetooth bug where once it sees too many devices, it stops connecting to anything. I have to make sure to turn off my phone if I go somewhere like an airport, and have been having to restore my clean Cloudy backup about once a month. It's getting pretty frustrating. On the other hand, I'm hoping to upgrade to an LG G6 (US997) in a month or two when the V30 release pushes down on prices. So, if it's a case of potentially hard-bricking my G2 at the worst possible time, I should hold off flashing.
I think you need hybrid bootstack for android 7.

That makes sense, but will I not be able to use my Cloudy 2.2 backup after that? It says that the hybrid bootstack will only boot CM 12.1, CM13, and LP stock roms.

These questions if this works with that or that are easier to answer for yourself by reading what goes with what.
Just Google LG G2 bootstack and you can probably find the ones you need for any available rom.
I use hybrid on Marshmallow 6.0.1 but I tried Nougat 7.1.2 too, it works.
