From your photo there, it seems to be marked as a D801, which would, of course be the T-Mobile variant of the G2. Going into Settings / General / Hardware shows the model number, but I'm not enough of an expert to know if that is read from the phone's firmware (what you flashed) or the phone's hardware.
There's a Playstore app that says it will give that information:
"My Android app will help you to know the following:
[snipped stuff]
11. Manufacturer and Model number of the device.
So look on the playstore for the app, install & run. Hopefully that reads directly from the hardware.

Thanks for reply but i tried hardware info software like cpu-z and aida64 both saying its D802... because of the firmware which is installed on this hardware via modification or by force.....
The main question is that which twrp run on my G2 and which rom should i install

UPDATE ! I removed to top cover to reveal the board !
I further tear my G2 , removing the top back cover!
There a chip with 801 written on it on the bottom right corner ....

[q] sm-n900 - mt6582

I have root access on the device, i have cwm installed which is version: rual autocwm v5.5.0.4.
The problem I have If I try to install any Rom it either freezes or half way through installlation returns me to cwm. I have tried to upgrade cwm to the newer versions ie touch etc and it completes the install and updates but once phone has rebooted is returns me back to the old cwm v5.5. If I do a battery pull the phone boots back up as normal and runs 4.3 and shows I have root.
Some of you might think well I have root access I should be happy however I don't just want to run apps, I wish to play with mods and custom roms so I will like some help if possible.

What do you mean 'mt6582' in the title? Is it MediaTek chipset? If the answer is yes, so you may own a fake device.
You can use Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app to check if it is a original one. Go to the Menu --> 'Refurbishment Check'.

Yes it is a MediaTek chipset! I am aware its a like for like clone. My understanding is the clones with MediaTek Chip can still support custom roms?

So your device is not a Note 3, you cannot use any Note3's rom obviously.
Please use Phone INFO app to check to make sure.

HELP! plz i am very stretfull
Wait, somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but this phone was flashed with a LS980 ROM using flash tool, and in download mode says that is a D805... I mean, you are trying to flash the wrong ROM using flash tool, looks to me...
Aren't not different phones? (LS980 Sprint, D805 Latin American)
Try flash kdz firmware Becase TOT method try to fild properties in build.prop "ro.product.model" the model is wrong.
First, this is a dev forum. U cannot ask questions in here. There is a freaking Q&A topic in General forum.
Second, Your phone is a god damn d805. So find a d805 stock rom to flash.
Third, please close the topic.
I've heard about this this problem from few people.
Apparently, you can't burn kdz when you got CloudyG3. you need first to go back to one that is based on stock. like CloudyStock or something.
another method: Someone said that he let LG PC-SUITE to identify the model and download the correct Rom, and everything went fine.

Hey guys, need some help... My mother owns an G2, in phone info and on the back it says that it's D802 but when I checked the IMEI number on http://imei.info it says that the phone is D800. How can I know which model is it exactly? Have to know because I'm going to take that phone and use it...
Wouldn't want to brick it since I'm a flashoholic

Tried to look up for the sw update on the LG Firmware site with the IMEI, it sayd "invalid IMEI"...
Nah just check the phone model number in setting -> about. then youre good. I had D802T and i ran imei checked it obviously wrong. It says mine is D800 and is 32Gb version but in fact mine is 16Gb. And yes i take out the cover it says D805. I guess some part could fit on each other.
Just wached some g2 teardown clips on youtube... One of them had all different parts, speaker from d805, motherboard from d800, and the model was d802! The last one I watched was made by a Russian dude, everything was from d802 but when he removed the ribbon, I look at the motherboard, poof! D801! This can be a big problem because if you need to flash your phone with a KDZ, in case you have a different motherboard, you will surely brick your device! This is the moment when I don't know what to do... :-\

Then the answer is obvious. You need to check your motherboard model and that is your reference. If speaker and battery or even backcover from different part i think it no problem though. I just opened again my phone and my phone frame says "D801/803". But until now i just flash rom for D802 variant and everything gone well.

I had issues with rooted n7 while updating to 5.0
Please post the following information:
1. Model Number
2. Android Version, found by going to Settings > More > About device.
3. Firmware Version (AP, CP, CSC), found by dialing *#1234# in the dialer or by installing Phone Info from the Play Store and running it.
4. Service Provider
5. Country
6. Is the phone rooted? (Yes/No)
7. Is a custom ROM installed? (Yes/No, and the name of the ROM)
There may not be an Android 5.0.1 ROM available for your area as of yet, but if you can post the relevant information above, it will greatly aid in searching.

Help me figure this out

Hey I just bought my galaxy note 4 from my country's carrier yesterday and it started with lollipop right out of the box and it had some issues like old galaxy apps which wouldnt update so I did factory reset and solved that out. I find it not normal that it wasn't running kitkat. And I also noticed that my basedband version differs from my build number. What does this mean exactly? Also there is a section at the bottom of my about device which says configuration version not available. Please good ppl help me out to figure this out. And just to repeat, the device is bought from the official carrier's store. I'm applying screen shots .
