Can I run stock kitkat on my new LG G2? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I just got a LG G2 from rogers wireless...it is the international version "Model: LG-D802"
I am upgrading from a Nexus 4....Needless to say I don't like LGs UI, So I would like to run a stock kitkat if at all possible, I am familiar with adb and such from running custom firmware on nexus 4, but I don't know anything about what software LG uses for those purposes...
Could I get some links / information please? Thanks
*edit*
wait...I have this model
LG-D803

Check this ROM out, I highly recommend it, I'm using this ROM right now, it's awesome.

Looking for Update 4.3

Hi
I'd like to ask ; where I can find official G2 update 4.3 ? I don't like kitkat I just want still same original LG ROM but 4.3 ?
Is there any ? (please NOT USA versions )
Thank you
You can't find it because it hasn't been released, nor will it be.
LG is allegedly working on 4.4, with a release date of Q1/2014. That ROM will be a 4.4 but will look totally like 4.2.2 because of LG UI.
Most carriers skipped 4.3
The only devices getting 4.3 are ones who aren't getting 4.4

Question here, I've got a taiwanese LG G2 with a european JB rom installed on it. I just downloaded a portuguese (european) 4.4 stock rom. Can I just upgrade it with flashtools? Or do I need a different program? Im not interested in gaining root or whatsoever.
My current softwareversion is D80210f and I want to install an D80220B softwareversion
Thanks in advance!

[Q] new Sprint LG G2 - questions

Hi -
I have been an iphone guy for last 2 years and Just purchased a new Sprint LG G2 phone from ebay which was sim unlocked. I am from india.
After purchasing found out that this is not factory unlocked and it was rooted and then sim unlocked. After hearing this, i am scared to make any changes on the phone thinking that i might lose my carrier network which i am currently using.
I am currently on:
- Android Version: 4.2.2
- Baseband version: M8974A-AAAANAZM-2.0.20018
- Kernel Version: 3.4.0
- Build number: JDQ39B
- Software version - LS980ZVA
I am kind of intrested in installing different kind of ROM's that are available however i am scared that i might lose simunlock.
Can someone please guide me on things that i can do with this device without losing the unlock?
I am complete newbee and helping me overcome this fear would be appreciated.
Thanks
Sam
Well you can check out the permanent SIM unlock which is for Sprint g2 and even if you switch roms it should still work

I still do have a question on what is ZVA, ZV7 or ZV8...........It says in the forum that i need to have ZV8 or ZV7 to install other Roms.
What are the pre-requisites before i install any Custom Roms?

well I really don't know much about the sprint g2 I do know that zv7 was the original firmware that shipped with the sprint g2 and then there was the update to zv8 and then zva and the latest is zvc, zv7 was the easiest to exploit for recovery and zv8 is still exploitable but zva is exploitable but can only use custom roms based on zva and zvc is not exploitable, each of theses is the different radio/baseband for each new update on the sprint g2, you can look around for how to flash roms with the sprint g2 or ask around, I will look around and let you know if I find anything

ioroot is the way to go with any device, and root process doesn't brick device; if pa 4.4.3 is using lg official sources then you would just need to flash and your done
Ioroot25, as mentioned, to root. Use AutoRec to get recovery. Modem is fine since you're already on KitKat by the looks of it.
As far as which panel you have, there's methods to determine floating around, just search.

[Q] Which modem / bootloader?

Hi Guys. I recently sold my HTC One M7 for an LG G2 and never looked back, so I'm hoping some of you guys/gals could help ease the transition. I got this phone already rooted and since then have installed the latest build of CM12 Lollipop. I want to flash a new kernel but have read that certain kernels have to have certain modems and/or bootloaders. So my questions are :
How do I find out which bootloader i'm running
Which modem should I be running with CM12
Which bootloader do I need
To fill in the rest of the blanks, I'm running an AT&T D800 and would like to flash the Render Kernel onto CM12 Lollipop. I'm also currently running a KK Modem, is this correct? Lastly, I do not know the method the original owner used to root. Thanks in advance!!
