Guys I was on SKROM for a while. Then I reverted everything by flashing tot and kdz and then now i flashed latest OptimusG3. But see how much space the system takes up!!
I have the d802 32gb model. Any help please? Who else is using OptimusG3 rom is this a bug or??
Edit: went back to full stock. screw this i will stay on stock kk without root and wait for official lollipop.
PS: G3 ROMs are not safe either cause your G2 thinks they are D855 (G3).

I got an email saying you mentioned me, so I rushed in to see if I could help but it seems like you got it sorted.
I think it's the lollipop ROM that's to blame, since it messes with the system partitions and partially replaces D802 files with F320 files. It's nothing like a normal ROM and that's why I have advised against flashing those lollipop ports
But like you noticed, flashing a kdz restores your original partitions
P. P. S -G3 roms are safer since they do not change partitions at all. The D855 thing is just a matter if build.prop not being adjusted accordingly.

Okay, so i had a LG G2 Pre-rooted since i bought it and i unrooted it, i updated to kitkat LG UI only to realize that i am more fond of stock KitKat CM11/CarbonROM, so i flashed the d800 ATT LG G2 which(Worked before i updated to kitkat) and now it gives me a binary error while flashing, it simply gives up trying.
Binary issue: 7 [Device must be [d800/gilpa] , your device is [d800].
I'm so confused , is the KitKat Update from LG Screwing things up or?!? How do i fix this?
Thanks, and if this has been posted somewhere else, sorry..
Longstory short: Updated KITKAT OTA, Didn't like it, Downgraded back to JellyBean, Installed TWRP, AOSP don't flash...
EDIT: SOLVED: D800 Flash the updated recovery zip

ok a little more info you say here:

you said you unrooted and update to kitkat so where are you right what version are you on and are you rooted or not and what d800 g2 are you trying to flash also have you tried flashing to stock jb(4.2.2) rooting and installing recovery then trying to install the rom?

SOLVED:
I wasn't informed that i needed to flash the TWRP 2.7.0.0 from the custom recovery installer.
I simply flashed this in the recovery and everything works now.

Hi everybody,
As per the topic says, i have a brand new LG G2 D805 Variant already with 4.4.2 (which is KitKat) and i am wondering if i want to flash CloudyG3 1.1, should i flash any specific MODEM?
I ask this as i see ppl saying every that the need of flashing a KitKat modem.
Taking advantage of the question:
1) If i root my phone, is it possible in the future to unroot it and keep LG warranty?
2) Is it worth to flash CloudyG3 1.1 over the stock?
Thanks a lot!!

It should work fine if you get top the Rom and it doesn't auto rotate the. Just boot into recovery and flash the baseband.
Wouldn't hurt to download it from the op and flash anyway.
If you want it back to stock you can use the flash tool and flash the stock kdz for you model.

I have installed Cloudy 3.1 ROM which is very great and smooth but I have some issues like notification sound is very low and I cant even hear SMS notification if I am outside.. on the other hand I am getting 2 hours 35 minutes on screen time from 100 to 5 percent of battery, which is not so good. I have Korean LG G2 F320K variant which was officially updated to Lollipop and than I installed previous cloudy G2 3.0 and then I flashed this one.
No I have only one question, that I want move back to kitkat ROM which would either be Cloudy Stock or Cloudy Flex as I have heard many good reviews.. So please suggest me the that which bootloader thingie I need to flash along with the flashing kitkat rom after cloudy 3.1.. there is return to stock method in which we need to flash return to kitkat zip but that is for D802... So please suggest me..ASAP I would be greatful for any help...
P.S i just want to avoid the traditional flashing the KDZ method...to return to KITKAT.. so please suggest a way forward to get back to kitkat..from lollipop

Hi, depends how you have installed your recovery:
If you have installed it for example with autorec v2 or twrp bumped by Blastgator, you have bootloader kitkat (because downgrade the bootloader) so you can flash a rom kitkat base.
On lollipop I have installed the recovery from f320_lp.apk and then I installed BUMP recovery.. so this means I can flash kitkat ROM now??
I have LG G2 D802 (I don't know if is the same for F320) and in general with twrp bump you can flash rom kitkat bump.
Now I don't now what you do to flash recovery and if everything is ok...but if you are not sure you can brick your device!
Best choice to return stock is always to flash kdz because reset all partition....
However for security wait other reply by F320's owner.
Hello everyone,
I want to do a full backup with my LG G2 D802 Cloudy G2 2.2 ROM + All apps + Data - actually everyting and after restore it on another LG G2 D802, how to do it? Should I just uncheck EFS before making backup from first G2 and check the rest in TWRP? Is it safe? First phone is rooted and second one will be without root. Im using TWRP 2.8.5.0

How will you be able to restore the backup on the second phone without root? Then there is also the problem of flashing the required bootstack on the second.
OK sorry my mistake, second phone will be rooted as well.
So what then?
what bootstack is?

The G2 still has a locked bootloader ...... in order the flash roms a exploit had to be found ....... a bootstack is basically a folder which contains a mixture of files which contains these exploits to bypass the locked bootloader ....... for example both Cloudy G2 and Cloudy G3 ask for the KK bootstack although they are lollipop roms ....... When flashing roms to the G2 we have to be careful to select the correct bootstack (loki vs bumpted, kk vs lollipop) or your phone will be bricked.

Dude, you have to read some basic things to understand, but to give you a direction:
Here's a generell list of guides and fixes. It has a "root"- and a "recovery"- section. Both are absolutely necessary. Go here first.
Here's a list of custom roms. There are stock-roms, stock-based-roms and completely custom-roms. I prefer stock-based-roms because the devs added some extra features and you have full driver support.
I hope this helps a little bit.

i have read some of there before, but i'm yet to understand it, because my previous phone was nexus 4, installing roms and such was fairly easy, and with this LG G2, there are complicated things even as flashing roms, not all models the same and such, and im afraid to brick my phone because of that, i also have a D801 model - D80110C and i have heared that there are different version of things and such.
anyway, what will be the best way to flash stock lollipop / stock based roms and later flash back to 4.2.2 if something goes wrong? thanks
I just did this, in my experience the best way is
1) updating to stock lollipop
2) rooting via oneclickroot
3) flashing twrp via AutoRec (correct version)
4) flashing twrp 3.x blastagator via old twrp
5) flashing desired rom
There is one caveat though, the root process will install the correct (old) SuperSU that works with AutoRec, but google play may update it beforehand so that AutoRec cannot work. My fix was to install AutoRec before the root and then go into airplane mode and do it all in one go. Also, you should always check if you got the correct carrier version of your software.
Going back to kitkat? This should not be necessary imo, but if you mess something up you can always flash the stock .kdz files (lp or kitkat) via download mode and lg flash tool 2014. This phone is almost unbrickable.
Hope this helps and after years of G2 roms I can finally give something back.

do you have a D801 model? i cannot update to lollipop through normal fota or lg pc suite, it doesnt see anymore updates
i have software version of D80110c, what are the last letters means in it? C/G/ and such,
and also how should i update to stock lollipop rom without bricking my phone? it seems that there is alot of room to ****up. thanks =]
I have d802 and could always update it to LP via LG software update in the phone settings.
10/20/30 is android version, 30 being lollipop. 30a/b/c/d is revision or carrier version I think.
I am not sure about D801, but if I was you, I would try to update to LP via official LG update, otherwise try to root+recovery with your existing kitkat (search the forums) or flash LP kdz from download mode (LG flash tool). Always make sure it works for d801 and your software version.
Then I would install a fast custom rom cause stock LP is rather slow.

i tried to update through lg, but it showed me that i am "UP TO DATE" might be because i bought it from someone who bought it in the US in cincenti bell ( and i dont live in the US, or close to it), the phone have a cincinetti bell rom, so i guess that why i cant update it through the phone like that. and i have a jelly bean 4.2.2 , not even kitkat. it is possible to flash a lollipop kdz just like that even if i have stock never tuched 4.2.2 ? thanks alot
