Currently I am running a LG G2 LS980 4.4.2 zvd. Rooted via stumproot. Twrp rrecovery 2.8.5.1. I also am running affliction custom rom found in the sprint lg g2 section. The problem i am having its that when I try to load a different custom rom I always get stuck in boot loop. I always do a full wipe and factory reset. I have tried liquidsmooth, blisspop, cm12, validus and a couple others, always gets stuck in boot loop. Today i did a full wipe again and installed affliction Rom again and it worked but the others still won't. I have also tried to downgrade my radio to zv8 or zv7 since that has been recommended on some threads i have read, but the files i downloaded off of a link found in here say they are corrupt when i try to load them and it doesn't work.
Does anyone know how to help me?
Hello, it sounds like you might have the wrong bootloader. You need a zv8 radio/modem and a jb bootloader for aosp lollipop ROMs.
So i downloaded zv8 radio zip from a link shared in another thread. Do you know another source for those? How do I change my bootloader? I have tried looking for that but have not had much luck.
Google "LG G2 modem" and the first result should be a xda thread with all the modems for all the modems for all the lg g2 variants. Download the ls980 zv8 modem. For the bootloader you need an app called autorec. Google "LG G2 autorec" and download autorec for the ls980 and run the app. Make sure you have the twrp 2.8.5.1 zip on your device because autorec also installs twrp 2.7.0.0 which is old. Just go to recovery and flash 2.8.5.1 to update twrp.
I will try to get new zip for zv8. Autorec is how i got twrp on my phone. I have upgraded twrp to 2.8.5.1. Although autorec does not show up in my app list currently, maybe when i installed affliction rom that app left by i kept twrp.
So i reinstalled autorec and upgraded twrp to the most current. I also redownloaded the zip for zv8 modems. When i try to install zv8 zip in twrp but it tells me the zip is corrupt and will not load.....

Maybe when you see my post, you said that 'another root question'. But it is not.
I own a D802.
I had install a kitkat 4.4.2 F320S rom on my phone. I had no issues. But I had lost my recovery.
Now I rooted my phone with ioroot25.
However, I cannot install recovery with freegee
It detects my phone as F320S and it doesn't support my device.
What I am supposed to do to install a recovery.
You can't install custom recovery on kk yet, because there isn't one that works yet.
Thanks Devs. From my VZW G2.
Hello,
sometimes I am reading that some users are installing TWRP via AutoRec.
But sometimes I am also reading that some users install Bump!ed versions of TWRP by simply flashing it directly via Flashify for example.
Are there any advantages/disadvantages comparing those methods?
Or would both give the same results?
What is currently considered the best way to install TWRP on the LG G2 when TWRP has not been installed yet?
Regards

It depends on the roms you will be using, if you're going to use a bumped ROM then using the latest stock base and flashing twrp though flashify is the cleanest method, but if the ROM you're using isn't bumped you need the jelly bean bootloader and thus should use autorec. Note that you can install bumped ROMs on the jelly bean bootloader but you CAN NOT install non bumped ROMs on the kitkat bootloader. If you are using a bumped setup and flash a non bumped ROM, it will boot loop. If you don't have a BUMPED ROM still on your storage, you will need to factory reset through download mode or fastboot (whichever you have, some flashable bootstacks purposefully break download mode to enable fastboot. I personally prefer download mode, if I can't get to an adb prompt I'd rather just flash a kdz).

Hey wq.
I very recently installed AutoRec on my D802, which has the latest 4.4.2 KK. It works flawlessly, and I recommend it. I believe the .apk installs TWRP 2.7.0.0, which has worked for me very well, and I have installed at least 15 different ROMs with it so far.
Hello,
thank you very much for your fast and detailed answers.
So, let's assume someone uses AutoRec to install TWRP for the first time on a LG G2, which only installs an old version of TWRP (version 2.7.0.0).
Which TWRP version should one then use to update to the latest version of TWRP?
Would you use the blastagator version from over there:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/development/twrp-twrp-2-8-0-0-kernel-f2fs-tools-t2898705
Or would you use the official version from over there:
http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/197
And how would you install it?
By simply booting into TWRP 2.7.0.0 (provided by AutoRec) and then from there flashing the latest TWRP zip file?

I wanted to flash cloudy rom which is bumped.
So i straight away used flashify to flash bumped recovery and then flashed the rom..
No autorec needed.
I flashed blastgator's twrp with thermal control.
Hi guys, I've buy the lg g2 d802 just yesterday.
I really want to try miui v7.
So I've downgrade lollipop to kk trough kdz and everything goes fine. now starts the problems.
I cannot find a good tool to root and I use a one click root + twrp that root the phone fine but when it ask me to reboot to download mode, it stuck at finding new port.
but beside that the phone was rooted (i've check that with root checker).
Then I really don't find any tool or guide to install TWRP recovery, and so I have to install autorec for KitKat. that is the only tool that works for me (twrp manager doesn't work).
So I install with twrp miui v7 gtbluesky.
But many apps don't work, such as camera.
Somewhere I've read that autorec for kitkat downgrade the bootloader to JB and miui needs KK bootloader, maybe is this the problem?
can you advice me a good tool for root and install twrp on G2? So I can have KK bootstack and install miui?
thank you a lot in advance and sorry for noob question

1. if you on KK use towelroot.
2.use autoreck for KK to install twrp.
3.update twrp with blastagator thermal 2.8.7.3 when installing do a reboot into recovery to boo into new twrp.
if you installing a rom that new KK bootstacks bumped download your variant here.

what recovery version you have?
Hello people, unfortunately I have no time to read this big forum in order to get the informations I'm asking for in this thread, so I hope you understand and could contribute giving me the infos, it won't take much time. So here are the questions:
(before you proceed, I'm at the moment, using stock 5.0.2 ROM, unrooted, in my d802)
1. Should I flash CM 12.1 over Lollipop stock ROM or it's better to go back to KitKat stock ROM before?
2. What's the best method to root d802?
3. In order to get CM 12.1 I should: root -> install twrp bumped -> flash CM12.1 -> flash gapps. Is that right?
Thank you in advance
ypu need to read..we all did at some point.. but click on my signature where it says HERE and it will take you to guides how to's and fixes loo at root and use what ever workd for you.. remeber to use only d802 files. for you d802. and have in mind you may have a refurbished phone.. sometimes they say d802 when motherboard is d800-ls980...
root.. the install autorec from playstore.. install twrp... search for thermal twrp from blastagator and update that twrp to the thermal one.
also flash hybridbootstacks for your variant.. install in twrp... then reboot twrp not to system but from twrp into twrp again to take effect.. then flash rom and gapps.
Question..is it a must that he updates to thermal twrp from the Auto rec version twrp 2.8? Is it because of the "bump"..not sure what that is
So i've tried rooting and installing root+TWRP over a script on my lg g2 d802 which sent the phone into a boot loop. Then i downloaded a Stock ROM (i didn't find mine so i just chose one from my country) and flashed it on the phone. I then rooted it with some script i found on youtube IOroot, which worked and and proceeded to install TWRP over AutoRec, which worked aswell BUT i was not able to get back into the system because of the phone boot looping again. I was able to go back to TWRP but not into the system itself. So i just reflashed the phone again.
Does anyone know what my mistake is here? I am pretty new to this. Could it be that because i have a different Stock ROM it doesn't work? Tbh, I don't know if i will destroy it by installing a american Stock ROM on a german phone. I've read a lot of tutorials but many are down and most of them lead to AutoRec or this Auto Script from here.
EDIT: Ok, nevermind. I installed some Stock Lollipop ROM and with that everything was pretty easy. Installed LineageOs 15.1, works great.
