[Q] Newest root and install recovery method ?

Just as the title says -- ive read and searched and found numerous threads and topics related to an asortment of rooting this phone but could not find one that stated it was the newest method for both rooting and installing a recovery.
I am on the Verizon variant -- 4.4.2 -- build jdq39b -- software version vs98011a --
could someone please post a link to the correct method for both ?

So this might be the latest method for root then ? this links me to ioroot10 , but im seeing ioroot11 and even a 12 and then other ones talking about 10o also , so hince why im askin for the latest method.

I used 10 to root my phone no problem. I was on the same software version as you, though I think you meant Android 4.2.2 instead of 4.4.2.

ok so assuming everything goes ok with the root -- what is the correct way to install either one of the custom recoveries to flash roms than ?

Bumping ...

Download the recovery, use Flashify on the Play Store.

Rooting was a success no issues at all thank you for the link -- have not installed a custom recovery yet and took the new OTA the B one and I did not loose root in the process, so my next goal is to get a custom recovery installed -- thanks again

From what I have read, you will have issues installing custom recovery on B for now at least. At least you have root.

[Q] Is my process correct?

It's been quite a while since I've last installed custom roms and now that I have the G2 I just want to make sure the process I have in my head is correct in order to run [ROM] Verizon Stock Rooted OTA Debloated VS98012B [12/26/13]
Stock rom > Root > install latest TWRP/CWM > wipe cache / dalvik > flash rom = much success?
If i'm flashing the 12B rom on top of the stock 11A - is there anything beside the rom I have to flash? Modem? Gapps?

that will work

No offense to you at all sharkares but hopefully someone else could also confirm. Not saying that your post count at 2 makes you untrustworthy but I've been burned by a similar situation in the past. Can anyone else confirm?

Actually that reply helps. Thanks

Sounds like thats all you need how did you flash your rom with out a custom recovery? You can also do this method link to follow

Well... hmph. I totally blew it and accidentally updated to 12B before rooting. Wasn't paying attention to prompts. I'm pretty sure I saw a method for rooting from 12B, now I have to try and find that method again.

Possible downgrade ill try to find a link and post it for you up here

Oh and I tried factory reset which I thought would revert me from 12B to 11A (which would be factory but I guess the OTA stays applied?)
Is there a was of reverting back to 12B to 11A while non rooted and no custom recovery installed?

If you follow this it should work pages 84 should have how to root the 12b

thank you sir. I'll give it a shot.

Well, that thread led me to believe that 12B could be rooted with 2.11.1 driver and ioroot16. Unfortunately my device is being listed as offline under command prompt for adb devices.

Make sure your adb version is correct pls also plug it in and see if it is showing up on your device manager in windiws if thats what os you are using

I'm not sure why but after trying the same process a couple times it started working, weird.

Ive heard of a lot of using using adb commands so im not too surprised but your phone is back where you need it to be now right?

No idea about flashing a 12b ROM over an 11a ota, but I would think it would be fine.
You can flash the 12b modem just to do it, the only issue would be rooting a 12b ota. Not many of the devs have started patching their Roms to work with the 12b ota

You need to use a .lok file patched for 12b of you are on the vs980 datechnerd has made the .lok image and twrp 2.6.3.3 and .4 for 12 b, but unless you want issues you're better off not taking the ota. As I posted above. Not many people are patching for 12b yet.
You can flash the modem fine and flash Roms but the actual ota will give you probs.
I used the flash tool to go back to 10b then rooted and flashed the 12b radio

So my situation is this: Stock > OTA to 12B. Rooted on 12B and have yet to install recovery. I want to flash :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2586379
I was reading the thread about installing custom recoveries on 12B but it seems like its very difficult to get the actual roms to flash from 12B.
So, would I be better off installing the recovery on 12B and then reverting back to 11A or 10B and then flashing the debloated rom on top of that? As far as I can tell that would be the most successful way of doing things? And if I do revert back, do I have to reroot and then flash?

[Q] How to enter TWRP on stock Kitkat firmware?

Hi Guys,
So I tried the new stock Kitkat firmware for my d802. Flashed the KDZ through support tool. I lost root as expected.
Then I started to miss root and control over my phone, so I wanted to go back to Jellybean.
After some difficulties I got the support tool working in offline mode. Flashed Jellybean stock KDZ.
Rooted the phone again and installed recovery.
Converted the stock KitKat rom to a flashable zip, and copied it to SD card.
I flashed the zip and all went fine.
Anyhow, when I wanted to return to recovery it did a factory reset instead, and now I can start all over.
Do we have a solution to this problem?
Thanks.

We are waiting for LG to release KitKat kernel sources for D802 before a solution can be made, but it does require you to go back to JB again and then flash a KitKat rom with the modified kernel in order to keep your custom recovery

Thanks. I thought that if it was a flashable zip, I could always return to custom recovery, but of course it is the content of the file that needs to be modified. I'll wait.

it would not be just a modified kernel it would be an entirely modified zip with parts from 4.2.2 and 4.4.2 so that it can support custom recovery like in jb but be able to boot into kk in fact the only reason we need the kernel source is because we have to add some lines so it can allow jb and kk partiotions to work together

I have been using it but for att and have not experienced any troubles and I also know of a few people who have already flashed roms whitput trouble also it seems like the g pro 2 rom might be the first to seeing custom recovery on d802 since someone there already made a patch but has not tested it yet and thus has not released it yet

Everything LG G2 Stock Kit Kat

Okay so I've been noticing a lot of threads lately asking kk this, kk that, kk them, etc. So I decided to make a thread to help some people and reduce the amount of repetitive questions on the Q&A and will try to keep it up to date during my free time.

Next is root and recovery-
IOroot has been updated to v25 and can root most devices on kk IOroot25
T-Mobile's D801 is having problems with root on 4.4.2 because of issues with stock recovery, but they have a dedicated thread which you can check out and read often to see if they figure out how to root it
Recovery is now available without all the downgrading hassle, as long as you rooted with ioroot25 you can:
1) check out Cloudy's AutoRec to download and install custom recovery on KitKat
2) for Verizon g2 owners only you can check out Freedom Tools

Bugs/Fixes(When I have more time I'll add more as I find them)
Apparently there is a bug in which when using auxiliary cables/headphones where there is a crackling/hissing sound in the background, I cannot comment on this since I have not experienced it and I use auxiliary cables every weekend for dj stuff and I also use headphones at least once everyday. There is now a fix for this using G2TweaksBox
So I remember from the very beginning everyone complained that there battery was being drained by Bluetooth right after flash without ever wiping/factory resetting, but I have been using kitkat for about two months now and if after 12 hours it's used 5% then wow that's not a drain, the Bluetooth now works in a low energy state just like Wi-Fi so that even if it's off it's always on in a low energy state which means its not draining your battery.
When I have more time I will add more stuff that is stock kit kat related

After rooting stock KK with ioroot25, isn't it possible to install a recovery? you just need to flash a patched kernel with loki enabled after flashing the recovery to boot back into "stock" rom

The only way is to have recovery on JB then flash Kk baseband for your variant and one of the Kk roms that use the patched kernel. Those Kk roms are mixed firmwares that use parts from Jb to make them work with the kernel and recovery and make sure loki is not broken. So that is why recovery can't be installed on full stock rooted Kk.
EDIT- There are now root and recovery methods/installers for stock KK. Mixed firmware is still used to keep JB bootstack.

ok so for some reason for the first few weeks the Bluetooth reports a false positive(it reports a lot of hours of use but it's not actually draining your battery), if you actually use Bluetooth on a daily basis it will eventually stop giving out the false positive, mines stopped reporting 7-15 hours and now only reports around 2-4 hours which is the actual use I give it on a daily basis

I appreciate the fast response. Sounds like I'll wait it out and see what happens but that's good too know it's a false positive. Thanks again!

if you are using a root browser they should be located in cache/fota there should be a dlpkgfile, a script and some other files and also are do you have custom recovery sounds like you want to flash a stock rom? Also you want to use this to flash back to stock

Unable to install lollipop roms on G2 (TWRP)

Hey guys,
well I tried to install Resurrection Remix today , tried two different versions of it , with and without the MD5 , I also tried updating TWRP to the latest, I tried downgrading the bootloader to JB , I tried Autorec and have no idea where to go from here. I get the same error every time "E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/Resurrection-Remix-LP-v5.5.2-20150722-d802.zip" I dont get this error if Im on 2.7.0.0 ,the installation just stops and says error, Any ideas on how to fix this will be much appreciated.
Thanks
Edit:
Sorry I forgot,
I have a D801 (D801 Recovery), I'm currently on cloudy2.2, Im using the Dorimanx kernel for kitkat, my baseband is M8974A-AAAANAZM-1.0.190082.
I have the D802 Version of Cloudy2.2 and the D801 kernel.
Update:
Well I tried to install Cloudy G3 (Lollipop) and it gave no errors in installation , but it got stuck in a boot loop , so I tried to restore a backup and now even the backup (Kitkat) and all previous kitkat roms are all stuck in boot loop (Clean installs). Am I missing something here? Is there some other prerequisite to installing a lollipop rom?

Post your queries with complete device details (includes model,software,kernel and baseband) atleast or none of us can help you.

Updated the thread with the information you asked.

Use the tot or kdz method and restore back to kitkat stock. Then you should root using stump root then install twrp again. From there you have to download a flashable twrp due to the fact that the one that comes with autorec does not flash properly. Also, you got stuck in boot loop for cloudy g3 due to the fact that you did not install a bumped bootstack for lollipop. Ask @bender_007 for and questions regarding autorec or for a custom autorec.

Thanks a lot for the reply , and I successfully went back to stock kitkat using the kdz method , after which I rooted the phone. I didn't install a recovery because I was waiting for exactly this. But one questions , the only ones I found are from Blastagator and there is no lollipop bootstack there for the D801 (only D800) the D801 only has KK and JB. But still , thanks a lot.

Since you are on a d801 you can actually upgrade to lollipop, then you should download autorec v2 for the d801 from the play store. Once that is done you should install a new recovery then you can flash your lollipop ROM.

Hey, thanks for all the help everyone , I managed to make it work by updating to the lollipop bootloader by OTA updates. Then rooted and then both Cloudy and AICP flashed just fine and worked with no problems. But as for Resurrection Remix , still no luck , it gives the same error... but ... I guess AICP will have to do

Did you install the autorec v2? Did you update the twrp recovery from the listed website? The twrp that is installed by autorec is not meant for flashing Roms.
