You will have to unlock bootloader to flash anything other than a stock ROM. There's no known way around this.

Hi,
I have 4.2 on my LG G2 D802 and KitKat was just launched in my country. My phone is rooted and I got TWRP.
Can I download and install the KDZ-file (KitKat) without removing TWRP?
Do I have to remove any mods I have done to the system? Like G2 Xposed etc?
Please respond, before I do the update (don't want to brick it).
Thank you!

Do not make OTA update with TWRP on you phone ! you will be stuck at recovery !
You cannot flash a kdz without lossing root and twrp !
Flash this ROM and follow the thread so you get kitkat with root and you keep your custom reovery : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2661866

I know not to make an OTA update.
And I don't care about loosing root and twrp. I'm wondering if it will work fine to install the KDZ-file and it will work like a original-phone. Or if I do have to remove TWRP and mods first?
Thank you!

you can flash official KDZ no matter u have twrp or not ! but be aware that your bootloader will be updated and you will never get custom recovery again (till now)
I have searched a bit and from what I have found the phone will not be restored after a KDZ-flash? I want my phone completely wiped and restored to stock when I install KiKat. Can I restore my phone in settings before I install the KDZ-file?
Will this somehow be a problem when I have a rooted phone and TWRP?
Please help me restore my phone to stock and update to KitKat, I want it to be completely stock and with nothing left in it.
Thank you!

Ota Problems!
Hi all my g2 stuck at recovery! Any1 help plz!
I was running on an older version of TWRP. Also I had uprooted my phone recently due to battery heating and media server issue. I flashed the new zip file but did not clear cache after flashing instead directly booted into system. System boots perfectly but cannot load recovery as it gets stuck on splash screen( Lenovo logo). Please do help me.
Flash it back to older twrp version using fastboot.
Guys, hi
There is one more new problem. I tried to update the OTA update but got stuck at boot screen. It's not responding after the Lenovo logo. I think the issue is not having any recovery(custom nor stock). How to fix this issue? Please help me to
# Reset stock recovery or TWRP 3.0.2-0
# Update the OTA update( I badly want this as I saw that Resurrection Remix requires the device to presently run on stock Lollipop to update. I soo badly want to use CM13

Thank you. But can you please tell how to do this via the flash boot. I haven't tried yet in a PC. I installed the older TWRP and now tried flashing the new version using my phone. Wouldn't I get stuck because none of the recoveries(custom and stock) are opening
can you boot into the system? if Yes then use rashr app and flash twrp's img file from the storage.. and reboot to recovery and u don't need to update to stock lollipop you can directly flash cm12.1 by ed300 and after booting into system once you can install any lollipop or marshmallow rom with the help of recovery. i advice you to not to do update as u r a root user.

Thank you bro. Yes I can boot into system. Actually I'm not root user anymore. I had heating issues with the battery earlier. After rooting media server started draining battery. So i uninstalled SuperSU.

You first hv to root for the installation of recovery.. First root ur phone then install stock recovery.. Using flashify or rashr.
If you can boot into system, then you can use adb sideload to flash zips(recovery or rom).
For detailed info, google it or go to http://www.droidviews.com/sideload-roms-mods-using-adb-sideload/
If it doesn't work, root your phone and then install flashfire. Then use it to flash recovery.

Thanks bro. Is it bad to root using iRoot or KingRoot? Or should I do it using ADB?
@Iamjomy if you have pc then go for adb otherwise go for the latest version of kingoroot.. I rooted with kingroot.. No problem in that.. You can find that apk by searching on google.. !!

Hello,
Thank you soo much. I flashed TWRP 2.8 using Flashify and it works. Actually I wanted to do a factory reset to solve "Unfortunately the process com.android.phone has stopped" issue. It wasn't allowing me to turn on my mobile data. I couldn't reset the phone too as a recovery was missing. Now the issue is fixed and I'm happy with it. Can I flash the TWRP 3.0.2-0 similarly using Flashify? Also please do suggest some good ROMS bro. Im still on the KitKat version( S040_150805)

1)flash recovery(custom or stock,as u wish) again by fastboot or flashing app like rashr or flashify.
2)If command is not working then try button combo.FYI button combo is different for custom rom and stock rom.

Did you tried flashing recovery by fastboot?
If that fails also then ,try to root your phone with kingroot and try flashify again.
BTW if you are on KitKat then flash KitKat t.w.r.p first .

There is not any stock rom available right now for same January security patch level, so you cant downgrade or relock bootloader until there will not be a same patch level rom, also volte getting broken for all who flashed oreo roms. If you have backup of your stock rom before flashing oreo rom thn that backup can help. Efs restore can give you back your imei numbers and working network but volte, forget it.

Its normal if you have successfully flashed rom and gapps in twrp and thn from twrp you will press reboot system thn you will not reboot to system, first the phone will boot in bootloader and thn you have to press start button from bootloader thn rom will start to boot. And stock rom can only be flashed via fastboot or RSD Lite, however debloted and customised stock rom can be flashed via twrp. Hope this will help.

Yeah, its will failed because you are trying to downgrade and you cant downgrade gpt.bin, if you want to flash stock rom thn you will need same or higher patch level stock rom, otherwise its will failed or you will hardbricked your device, if twrp is working normally thn start a clean flash of any custom rom, reboot, first time you will boot in bootloader thn press start from bootloader thn your rom will boot normally. And last but not least, never ever forget to take backup of your old rom.
one question more can i restore someones twrp backup ? will that bring back VoLte working ? cuz just now i flashed Pixel Rom and it booted as u guided me to boot. But VoLte not working IMEI fine after flashing some commands ... both sim working

That's because you have twrp installed, otas on every device won't install if you have a custom recovery. The only way I know to remove twrp is to reflash the rom with mi flash tool, or flash a twrp flashable stock rom without flashing the twrp installer.

I thought volume down + power enters fastboot mode. Volume up + power enters recovery. Anyways, if you dont have TWRP installed, then you have to reset your phone.

You probably made a mistake and made changes to the system partition. A common mistake is to start twrp and mount the partition as read/write. Even if you did not make any changes, the partition info will be changed and any OTA will fail from that point on.
