Hi i am new here and I just needed help regarding installing the 4.4.2 Kitkat on my mobile. Is there a ROM for my mobile? If there's any, can I install it through TWRP?
Your help would be much appreciated.

But i heard the rooted LG G2 doesn't get the official update is it true?
are you talking about someone else putting it here (ROM)?
Your answer was much appreciated
Hi im a bit of a noob when it comes too this flashing business but i managed to update my i9505 to lollipop using odin and the official stock rom but the problem i have now is my network signal is now terrible where it was good before is ther anyway that a noob like me can fix this issue? Im in uk on giffgaff (o2)
i have never rooted my s4 before and if some one has a noob guide for rooting from lollipop so i can custom rom it up i might give that a look too, I wouldnt mind a nice slim custom rom with a few extra tweeks and without all the google and samsung rubbish that comes standard..
Thanks
P.s sorry for all the questions and sorry if this is in the wrong section
The signal problem is probably caused by the modem.
You have to flash the latest modem for your phone, country and carrier.
If you already are on the latest modem then a lollipop modem might help.
Here you can find a guide on how to root lollipop.
If you want a slim rom you better try CM12 or GPE. If you like touchwiz then look for a touchwiz based lollipop rom around the forum.

Is your phone branded or unlocked? Coz this is very important. UK(O2) still without lollipop update. This is the possible reason that you are receiving weak network signal.

It seems you may have a frankenphone. meaning it was refurbished. many have install roms and touch wont respond. so you say is a d802 there could be a possibility that it isnt a true d802. maybe another model thats why you have rouch problem.
read all thread. this is for checking correct model.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/warning-to-people-bought-phones-ebay-t2991195
once you know your model you need to flash correct rom. and need to go back to stock.
here a list of many guides and how to's
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/05-10-index-guides-fixes-roots-t3218178
thx mate .
Well i checked my fone and it was really a refurbished one . It was actually ls980 with a firmware of d802 so that it can run 3g/4g. Now what should I do ... Is there any way tp restore the same d802 rom on my g2 .

no if motherborad says ls980 then the rom you had was faked and masked as a d802 they just changed the letters, using other variant bricks phone and or have touch problems. you must use ls980 roms.. not sure about ls980.
I'm really going to die soon. I spent the whole day trying to restore my IMEI as I don't have the original box (bought it second hand just the phone alone) and did not have EFS back up prior to flashing.
So, the whole mess was when I flashed Dorimanx for D800 instead of my variant which is D805 (my careless mistake, the title of the page was really confusing). Ever since, I lost my IMEI is shown as 0 or null so does my baseband. I then flashed ResurrectionRemix, PowerG2, etc. but still unable to get any mobile network connection.
I've tried reverting to stock KitKat firmware but to no avail. I've flash other modems as well with no success. I've even tried the QST NvManager switching from Windows 10 to 7 and re-installing the USB drivers numerous times still no luck. I followed so many forums and watched endless youtube tutorials none of them can fix my problem.
I'm really desprate, please help me.
how can the tile be confusing.? even qhen you go to download page theres all the variants. was kernel really the culprit of this.? am not really sure that kernel would damage imei and baseband i think flashing bootloaders do. twrp wrong rom. ect. you should post this in the q&a thread. i know some have restored imei.

Dear @raptorddd
Thank you for your feedback and I'm sorry. I did not blame the kernel as in whole context but rather my careless mistake and take note I suspected my problem was flashing the kernel for the wrong model variant so it was not actually Dorimanx's issue, no offense I even admitted my wrong-doing.
Anyway, after reading your reply at least there is a light to my answer. I will do some more research on bootloaders for my exact variant because most of the threads found here are for D802 International while mine is Brazil (Latin America) although I'm from SEA.
I was very happy when I see 6.0 MM on this frakenstein device but now I have this network problem making me sad. It's like having an old car with a new engine but no wheels. Please help.

I don't know how a kernel can wipe your imei. Have you changed roms succesfully before? Have you used ioroot on it? Ioroot makes efs backups automatically. That would help.

@raptorddd @Art Vanderay
I figured out. My phone is actually the D802 variant. It is obviously shown at the back of the case and when I open the back case, the model number is also printed just underneath the battery D802. I thought it was D805 because when I bought this phone it was already rooted and running PowerG2 and the model shown at the About page was D805. This is why I started looking for stock firmware for D805, TWRP D805, Dorimanx D805, and everything D805. So, when I downloaded ResurrectionRemix 6.0 MM, that was when my phone started to act weird but I'm very sure it was not RR issue as well. I wipe all my partitions without making any backup just before I started flashing things. I've done this 1000 times with no problem and this is the only time I got it wrong. I've tried flashing the bootlader changer aroma, then KitKat bootloader stock and still no IMEI, the phone number shown as unkown. I now got back my baseband because I flashed the KitKat baseband.
I'm going to start all over again today, and I'm getting all the files for D802 instead and will let you guys know if I can restore my IMEI back. Thank you for your participation on my thread, very much appreciated.

I'm sorry, I have a soft-bricked phone right now with no spare phones, so I don't have WhatsApp at the moment but thank you really for your effort and offer. Can you explain on the forum instead of TeamViewing so others that have this problem and reading this thread can solve theirs? +1 for you.
YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I FOUND THE ANSWER ALREADY. Please ignore the caps, this is just to show you how happy I am.
I've spent approximately 48 hours to figure what the heck is going on.
What I did was:
1. Flash stock firmware Brazil KitKat D805 .kdz through LG FlashTool 2014.
2. Use ioroot25 to root it via adb.
3. After rooting, download AutoRec.apk for KitKat and install that.
4. Download TWRP bumped latest and flash it to replace AutoRec's old version of TWRP.
5. Flash Dorimanx KitKat 10.9 (at the time of this post) or latest.
6. Flash KitKat stock baseband and modem for 20d.
After rebooting system, everything is ok. I got back my mobile network now. So happy!!! I'm requesting the moderator to close this thread as my question as been solved.

I'm not sure also. The back case written as D802 and just below the battery also written as D802. But when I tried to go back to stock I was unable to use D802 firmware but only can use D805 stock firmware. I'm now on Google Edition 1.3 the model is written as D802. When I try to flash stock D805 firmware I can't get through already. Im not sure why but as long as I can use the phone right now, I don't want to bother so much about that.

So far, Google Edition 1.3 is the best/stable among all other ROMS that I've tried like Power G2, RR, etc. Nice battery life, 100% in the morning and came back from work still have another 30%-40% (usage mainly for WhatsApp, Facebook, internet browsing occasionally, no movie/music/games-just COC once or twice). This is the most straight-forward ROM and the closest to Stock Lollipop from Google without any other 3rd party apps and bloatwares. Very stable, no FC, great camera, and knock code gestures (flashed additional QuickMemo+ which isn't included by default). Awesome!

Currently have TWRP 2.7.0.0 installed and a rooted stock 4.4.2 using the D800.
Does anyone know of any tutorials that can tell me what to do? I'm not new to all this but this G2 has got to be the most discombobulated phone to tinker with that I've come across.
I'm reading that the go to MM I first have to flash KK but then I read that I need to upgrade my TWRP or something to flash KK then there's all this about different bootloaders and etc etc....
I'm just lost. Everything I can find is all from like 2-3 years ago so I don't know what's changed since then, etc.
*sigh*
Can anyone help me? Thanks!

I can help i have same phone , but i see other question in other thread . whats the situation.? right now of the phone. and ill do my best to explain the process never been in jb but i think its the same..
Which specific Marshmallow you're asking about? There is no official LG G2 Marshmallow, but there are several AOSP ROMs. Usually, the process is explained on the ROM developer site or here on this forum in the ROM's announcement.
