I'll be posting up the kernel soon. It's nothing more than stock with adb root support, permissive, and root restriction removed. I'll probably update it to add init.d support and a few other things I come across, because afterall, this is just a first build to remove that annoying root restriction. I'm sure there are other things I can improve upon.
Download: BeastMode Stock 1.0 N910P OG5 **NO ROOT RESTRICTION** **Permissive**
Tested with SuperSU 2.49 BETA, but I don't see why the stable release wouldn't work too.
Source code: Download
Good news!

I'll be posting up a stock rooted ROM later on today.
But for now, you should be able to backup your current OG5 ROM with TWRP before flashing.
I'm not sure what problems people have had with TWRP not sticking, but it's stuck on my phone the first time I flashed it immediately after OG5 update.

I downloaded og5 and updated and boot looped when I tried to root. I never backed up, so I have the og5 boot loader and twrp but I am running sacs ROM. A stock rooted ROM flashable in twrp is exactly what I am looking for. Thanks

Excellent!
@freeza could I make a couple of requests, please?
Your kernel sounds like what I'm looking for. Could I get one with Enforcing mode for added security? Did he say E... ?
Also the guys in Note Edge forum could use a kernel for root as well.
Thanks. I've actually found ways to get around enforcing for V4A and ADB on OB7.

Confirmed working*
Starting from scratch you need things. Odin, Chainfire auto root, TWRP, and the kernel. Boot into download mode. Flash TWRP tar. boot into twrp recovery and backup system.
Boot into download mode again. Flash chainfire autoroot. Boot into download mode again, flash TWRP recovery again.
Boot into recovery, flash beastmode zip file.
You will now be rooted on this kernel.

Ok... I have been reading way to much today, to the point i did something rather noobish.
Was in the dev section TWRP thread specifically looking to downgrade fron 2.6 to 2.5, saw the last post where someone posted a dropbox link of 2.5. Thought "how convenient" and flashed. But the zip was for another model number, now i cant get into my recovery.
Odin flash of the stock image is always an option. But one that I would prefer to avoid it if at all possible. I was hoping that someone else out there was well... as stupid as I am, and maybe had some advice?
Is there any possibility that goo manager will simply over right the wrong recovery image with the proper?
Or is it by any chance possible to simply flash the TWRP ZIP with Odin?
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated, and I already know that I'm a burnout lol.

Everything seems fine. Just with so many "brick" threads on here wanted to be careful.
The bricks revolve mostly around the newest update that locks the boot loader on the at&t s4. On the m non at&ti believe you just need a non Loki kernel but I am not positive.

Ponder that, a canuck is less subject to tyranny? Your bootloader isn't locked? NICE! AT&T has degenerated from American Telephone and Telegraph into a globalized melting pot of greed and required upgrade costs and technical support that uses broken English spoken by people in India. You Canadians luck out this time!
I jumped in with motochopper to get root back in May and had the AT&T Software update service frozen with Titanium Backup back in June, I was so lucky to be "on top of it" by reading this forum. I used "Casual" to obtain TWRP 2.5.0.2 a custom recovery. I've never seen it so easy. After burning an image 3.56 GB of my stock firmware, I have since deleted it from my handset and replaced it with a nandroid of my daily driver here because GoldenEye is flawless. I saved a copy of the stock firmware on my desktop computer just in case, but I doubt I'll ever flash it and all of it's horrendous bloatware.
So I'm a happy camper, that only suffers the jone'sen for a fix as a "flash junkie". I will try CyanogenMod on this S4 after they iron the kinks out.
Looks like you're ok now?
FYI for anyone else in similar situation, ROM Toolbox Pro can download and install recoveries as well. It can access TWRP as well as CWM recoveries. A bonus for TWRP, it detects 2.5.0.2 as latest (avoid the occasional Teamwin splash screen hang with 2.6)!
I used this method to downgrade from 2.6 to 2.5.0.2. :good:
Word of warning, why upgrade from a working twrp 2.5.0.2, when it works flawless? Sometimes upgrading to a newer, is not always the best...look at the XDA app....yikes...

Wrong twrp flashed
Dear friend wrong twrp for my device I'm not able to go to the boot menu, how can i get rid of this, help me please. I've my stack memory and kernel already backup in my device memory.
The phone is an att i337? If it is, I assume the bootloader is unlocked since you were able like to flash a custom recovery.
i have no twrp AND I am stuck in boot loop...............................what will I do
Boot into download mode and confirm the phone's model number. Then flash a stock ROM from sammobile.com with Odin to get the phone back to stock.
I will be trading my iphone 5 on Monday for a Verizon G2 On the 12B build. I have been out of the android thing for a year now. I know how to root the phone but the Loki and recovery stuff is very new to me.
Main questions are how do I install a recovery that bypasses the boot loader and allows full flashing. TWRP is preferable but if CWM is better on this phone that's fine. What is Loki exactly and once I install a a Loki recovery can I install any kernels/ ROMs that I want? Please provide me with a step by step and links to stuff you think I need to know. I really appreciate your help.

You can flash custom roms and recovery without thinking about the bootloader. It's supposedly locked, but nothing to worry about.
Just root, flash custom recovery and flash custom rom. Any recovery will do, and TWRP is my favourite as well
If you decide you want to root and put a custom recovery on it there are two things to consider.
1. NEVER accept an OTA update. Not even if it promises you two tickets to the land of the unicorns. Don't!
2. Back up everything. And your EFS partition. And save it. Not on your device. Heck, make 5 copies and put one copy on an USB-dongle, another on your computer, the third under your bed, the fourth in your wallet and make a bank account in Switzerland for the fifth. The EFS partition contains crucial informations about your device. If you by accident delete it when flashing a custom rom, you turned your phone into a 5.2 inch tablet. And there's no way of getting it back. You might never need it, but if you do, you will thank yourself for having made that backup!
Thanks for the info. What way do you recommend to flash recovery? GooManager or other app. Or some other method? and also do you use your recovery to backup the efs partition or something else?

I personally haven't rooted this G2 yet, but TWRP offers the ability to back up your EFS.

You can use flashify to install TWRP, should be pretty easy and straightforward

I guess if you flash a custom rom then that will cure the OTA issue
Hi All,
I just rooted my verizon G2 using ioroot19 and the instructions from the dev thread. When I then used clockwork rom manager to flash the vs980 verson of clockworkmod recovery. The flash said it worked but when I tried to get in I got the android with the red! I then followed the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670 both methods 1 and 2, but now all I get when I try to get into recovery is a black screen. The phone still boots fine, but nothing seems to work for the recovery.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Use freegee. it will do the trick on a rooted phone. It is made by Shelnutt2. You can use the free or paid version but the paid version is cheap and you will support future development.
It is one of the best ways of installing TWRP/CWM on the LG G2.
Paid version (use this one)
Free version
Freegee worked great. Thanks!

Pardon my ignorance. But assuming you are rooted now with TWRP can you just update OE1 to OG5 and then flash BeastModeStock1.0-N910P-OG5.zip to get root back? or is it more complicated than that.

It is slightly more complicated. If you're saying update with this stock tar, yes but in addition to TWRP and Beastmode kernel, you still need to flash the SuperSU zip to root. And then there's the need to reapply your debloat, getting rid if Knox and ItsOn and any compatible mods.
Or just update with the tar (drag it out of the zip to a folder prior to flash in Odin), Odin TWRP and flash custom pre-rooted OG5 ROM. Not to get technical but you had it right if you add SuperSU zip to your question unless you were asking if you could just flash a OG5 ROM in recovery. I wouldn't recommend that. Clean install is also recommended.
Here's a step by step guide if you have problems.

Did you have to do anything special to get Android Pay to work with root? What were your steps and applications used? Standard AP apk or the one recommended for root users?
Or did you just flash stock tar, setup AP and then root?
Trying to get to the root of the issue others have. I hear rooted stock works with AP but others are having issues with custom ROMs.

I'm guessing it's because of the version of TWRP you used. Try going back to 2.6, or the modified version of 2.7 floating around. Other versions don't flash the modem correctly.

Why don't you try flashing a rooted rom to get root? I know there are other ways to attain root, but this would be the easiest, imo, given you have root.
