For a long time I had original system, just rooted to delete trashware. Yesterday I wanted to try something more, so I started following this guide: (I can't post URLs yet, it's a guide from true-android.blogspot: "Android 4.4.2 KitKat SlimKat ROM For LG Optimus L5 E610 - Weekly Build - How To")
I tried both CMW and TWRP. When entering recovery mode with CMW my phone is stuck on bootloop, when trying with TWRP all my phone does is full wipe. I used KDZ twice to flash firmware V20A, I'm using newest Impactor to root my device, and I used Rom Manager and Goo Manager to flash CMW and TWRP. Both on clear system of course. Now I'm stuck, and I'm looking for advice how to install Android 4.4.2 on my phone.
Nevermind. Solved. I used "UNLOCK L5 BY HUGO GABRIEL" app to install CMW.
Alright, I just got my LG G2 in, and I am considering to install CM11 on it, but it seems like there are various pitfalls on this device (such as damaging your screen because of the kernel?). Therefore, I wanted to check everything was alright:
- I have an Intl D802 bought in Europe, with software D80220d-EUR XX, Android 4.4.2. No updates have been installed yet. This was my plan:
- Install Stumproot to root the device
- Install SuperSU from the Play Store
- Get AutoRec to install TWRP
- Boot into TWRP, flash the ZIP for d802 of TWRP with thermal control from dr87 from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53605359
- Create a backup
- Use ADB to create a backup of EFS and pull that backup to my PC for future use
- Wipe data/factory reset
- Install an official CM11 ROM
- Flash Dorimanx to prevent the black line issue? Is this stilll necessary or do we still need to flash a custom kernel instead of the default CM11 one to prevent the black line issue?
Thanks in advance
I've been having issues with my phone, and I'm not sure if this is a HW issue or not, but no matter what I do, either I lose recovery or get a security error. I poked around and found some instructions in the CloudyG3 thread. They're for 3.0 but I would guess 3.3 wouldn't be different enough to brick this thing. Can't remember who the quote is from, I just copy/pasted it, but here it is:
Some of you sent me a PM asking for the install instructions on D800 and this is how you install CloudyG2 3.0:
Downloads:
1. Download CloudyG2 3.0 - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95897840722646001
2. Download Patch - https://mega.co.nz/#!sVY0mRTb!qn7S9B...3m_QpMQkgzunn0
3. Download Signal Patch - https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...l_Variants.zip
4. Download LP Baseband - http://blastagator.ddns.net/modem.php - d800-30f-modem-blastagator-signed.zip
5. Download KK Bootstack - http://blastagator.ddns.net/bootloader.php - bootstack-d800-KK_20c-blastagator-signed.zip
6. Optional: Download JB Bootstack in case if you want to revert the installation process and go back to your current ROM - http://blastagator.ddns.net/bootloader.php - bootstack-d800-JB_10d-blastagator-signed.zip
Flashing Process:
1. Backup the existing ROM (including EFS, Modem, etc.) in TWRP - very important and copy it over to the computer, just in case!
2. Wipe System + Data + Cache + Dalvik Cache - Do NOT select internal storage as it contains all your downloaded files + backups!
3. Flash KK Bootstack (downloaded from Step 5)
4. Flash LP Baseband (downloaded from Step 4)
5. Flash CloudyG2 3.0 (downloaded from Step 1) - Leave the default in Aroma when you have to pick the variant. Do NOT reboot the device as the patch installation (next Step) is very important.
6. Flash Patch (dowloaded from Step 2) - Select your variant.
7. Flash Signal Patch (downloaded from Step 3)
8. Reboot
Enjoy!

I'm guessing I have the incorrect files, most of the links I found in the thread with these instructions didn't seem to work so I Googled for them, maybe I don't even have the correct files. I took a screenshot in cmd of the exact filesizes.
Any help would be greatly appriciated!

Coming off a fresh TOT flash, I root with towelroot, flash TWRP using AutoRec, flash bootloader, then flashed Cloudy. It will boot at first, but then I run into "black screen of death" or security errors or when trying to boot to recovery, I'll run into similar issues. Does Blastagator's TWRP make the difference here?

I had the exact problem happen to me ....... I got the black screen of death .... phone wouldnt boot ....... and when i used the kk bootloader i would lose recovery ..... I was coming from kk to CloudyG2 ....
This is how i solved.
1. Flashed back to stock, stumproot to root Autorec v1 for bootloader
2. used Flashify to upgrade to 2.8.7.1 ( its now 2.8.7.3)
3. Downloaded n used bumpted LP bootstack and flashed blastagator stripped rom (its in flashable zip and installs everythin including modem .... patches etc EVERYTHING) http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-g2/development/rom-stock-lollipop-30b-stripped-t3144195
4. Downloaded kk bootstack , CloudyG2 3.3 and clean flashed in recovery
I have been enjoying Cloudy ever since ...... D800
Thanks all, got it running! Cloudyfa has done some absolutely brilliant work here with this ROM, as well as xdabbeb with the advanced camera driver and xCam. I'm usually a vanilla-or-nothing guy with my Android ROMs but this one is quick and power efficient. The KitKat ROM that shipped with the phone was super bloated and gross, but I'll admit LG UX 4.0 isn't really that offensive, plus I like the goodies like Multi-Window and QuickRemote. Once I disabled/hid some of the remaining LG bloat, it's surprisingly pleasant and not really that far from AOSP aesthetically. Again, cheers to those who provided the assist on this one for me!
... now my only question is, should I try CloudyG3?
Hello fellas, I have a LG G2 that had kitkat 4.4.2 before i start to try change the rom.
After read so many things here and there, i still have problems with the installation of TWRP.
Now i manage to put Lolipop 5.0.2 using the LG Flashtool 2014, because no other method worked, but i want to change for a clenaner one like cloudy or something.
But nothing works on my cellphone relative to TWRP. I made the root using LG One Clic.
I did the upgrade on the room couse I had no other choice and I decided to go stock on my cellphone...turns out that i downloaded a ROM suggested by SDK tool or another program from here (no sure) and it was a Lolipop not a kitkat as I thought it would be.
Now I want to know if anyone has an idea about how to install the TWRP so I can flash other roms easily.
---Autorec no worked;
---TWRP Manager says it doesn't have busybox and dont have my model on the list, i think I should use d802 as I read around;
---SDK Tool not worked;
I have no idea what to do next. Please, help me.
Hi guys,
Im trying for week to install Cloudy G2 3.3 on my korean F320L model.
I was trying almost everything and all i do was to brick my phone dozen times.
So now i want someone to help me a bit.
What i tried?
1. Lollipop. I updated my stock JB room to Lollipop and then wanted to install This TWRP (f320l_lollipop.apk) but it was not working.
Everytime i was able to see an Android with open stomach and red triangle instead of TWRP. But if i install any other version of TWRP like for f320k or sth i wasnt able to install anything on it, cause my phone was crashing over and over. So i started for looking some other ways to install Cloudy G2.
2. KitKat. I updated stock JB android to KK 4.4. Then after Rooting phone i was able to install this TWRP (f320l_AutoRec.apk ) and go to recovery mode.
But the next step in All guides was to install blastgator from dorimanx and i choosed f320 version and install it. But after reebot to recovery nothing happens just black screen.
So i tried other version but everytime i failed.
Now im totally lost.
Can someone who runs Cloudy G2 3.3 on his korean LG G2 F320l how to do it?
What system i need. Witch TWRP install, Witch blastgator and what next.
Thanks in ADVANCE!
