For the D802 since it's a .kdz file I would flash it with the instructions in the OP...

Oh the fun of flashing your phone. I had to revert back to stock as I was on CM 11 and had managed to wipe it at some point and lost auto rotate. I ran the LG tool but I think I picked the normal flash by mistake and got stuck in a boot loop without being able to hard reset. Luckily I could get into download mode and reflash and all was well apart from the fact it was now really late at night. The moral is don't start this kind of thing 20 minutes before you normally go to bed.

For anyone on Verizon that is trying to flash When it pops up with an error message

saying

do you wish to cancel the LG mobile upgrade

connection to server failed

try again in a moment

and the only button you see is "ok"

DON'T PRESS IT

it actually is still copying in the background window and on your phone screen as well....

Help Using Flash Tool

Ok So the only computer I have is a Mac and I've installed VMware and am running Windows 8. I've got the flash tool installed and working, but it will not allow me to select the dll file or tot file. I click on the browse button files button and nothing happens. Anybody have a solution? I guess I can maybe try using boot camp.
[G2 General] NexusPenguin:
Hi Justinscott,

LOL. Unless I am wrong, the Flash Tools are supposed to let you flash .kdz files. I'm not sure about the .tot files, but I'm pretty sure the Flash Tools won't allow you to choose .dll files...

Just to make a test : take a .dll file and change the extension to .kdz and see what happens

(BUT OF COURSE DO NOT TRY TO FLASH WITH THAT FILE ! JUST MAKE THIS AS A TEST OF YOU CAN'T DOWNLOAD A 2GB FILE FAST ENOUGH !).
[G2 General] justinscott04:
Tried what you suggested and I still can not browse any files to select. I click on the browse files button (the three dots next to the box that says DLL) and a screen pops up and says Wrong DLL file.
[G2 General] NexusPenguin:
Hi,

Ah... OK.

You're not using the .kdz method, but the TOT method.

As I have a D802 from Europe, I do not use the TOT method. especially since the .kdz method works so flawlessly for me.

I'm just trying to figure how to get rid of that stupid "ROOTED" that shows up in "Download Mode" and that pops up as soon as I flash something from the XXX20X series (4.4.2).

So sorry but I don't think I can help you there :(

My G2 is 802 16GB europe,and I want to download the official firmware:

Is Europe OPEN D80220D_00.kdz 16Gb or 32Gb?

Thank's
[G2 General] hyelton:
The difference is 20 is newer than 10
[G2 General] NexusPenguin:
Hi drich,

After a long series of .kdz flashings, here's what I have found out...

The 10x labelled kdz will install Android version 4.2.x.

The 20x labelled .kdz will install Android verion 4.4.x.

You can basically flash any ROM to your D802 phone. As long, of course, as it is a ROM for the D802 and not for another LG G2 model.

So, you can flash a D802 UK .kdz on a D802 in New Zealand.

And you can flash an "open" .kdz (not carrier related) on a D802 that was provided by a specified carrier.

BUT : here's what you might consider.

1°) If you flash a .kdz that is not carrier specific on a phone that has been shipped as a carrier specific device, you will not be able to update it over OTA. Il you have the latest .kdz available, that might be of no importance. If not, it might be a problem.

2°) Most of the people want to install a stock firmware when the have to get their phones serviced or when they wan to sell it. What you should know is that the G2 will tell if it has been rooted or not. Where will it tell ? It will tell when you're in download mode. After some seconds, a box will appear that says "ROOTED" or "UNROOTED". Il it says "ROOTED", LG will not service it free of charge.

What you should know is :

a) if you flash a .kdz labelled 10x, that will reset the root checker. Your phone will say "UNROOTED".

b) if you flash whatever .kdz labelled 20x (from your carrier or from another carrier or an open 20x .kdz), your phone will show "ROOTED" even if it is not rooted at all !

c) if you flash the carrier specific 10x .kdz you will have OTA updates. If you update your phone via OTA to a FW version called 20x (I think the latest is 20f) then your phone will say "UNROOTED".

From what I understand, ALL G2 phones have shipped with 10x (4.2.2) versions. Those included a small file in a hidden partition. When you boot your phone, the bootloader checks for those files. If it finds them it says "UNROOTED". If not, it says "ROOTED". I guess that the OTA update does not affect the hidden partition whereas the FlashTool does.

Hope this have been of some help making up your choice. If you've read this too late, you can flash .kdz as many times you'd like. I know. I think I have flashed my G2 with Flashtools about 30 times yesterday to find out all I have been writing in these few lines.

Regards.

[G2 General] NexusPenguin:
Hi,

Well, I am in France. My phone was bought here in France and was sold by a french carrier called SFR.

I was able to flash .kdz from other countries and did not notice anything that was malfunctioning.

From what I can tell, it more or less only removes that stupid "carrier splash screen".

So you can try it... and if does not work, just flash an open german .kdz. There are some of them.

Please read my next post for an advice :)

Regards.

Hi everyone,

Just wished to report my further investigations about this "Root Checker".

As I said in a previous post : if you flash a .kdz that is 4.4.2, you'll end up with a "ROOTED" status.

And unless you flash a .kdz from your carrier, you won't get OTA updates.

BUT : if you open a .kdz that was not intended for your phone, what you can do is following if you want to get an advice.

MY ADVICE :

- get an OPEN .kdz (that is not carrier specific)

- always choose the OLDEST ONE YOU CAN FIND (10A, 20A, 20B...).

- flash the .kdz using Flash Tools

- once the phone reboots, connect it to your PC

- launch the REGULAR "Update Tools" that you can download from LG's website (it you can, do that on another computer...)

- the REGULAR "Update Tool" will update your firmware... so you'll have a 4.4.2 firmware AND "UNROOTED STATUS"

QUESTIONS/ANSWERS :

- Q1 : Have you tested this your self ?

- A1 : Yes, I did...

- Q2 : will this work only if I begin with a 4.2.2 (aka 10X) .kdz ?

- A2 : No. You can start with a 4.4.2 .kdz (20X)... BUT you need to be sure that you'll get an update.

- Q3 : Now that I followed what you said, can I send back my device for a repair ?

- A3 : try it. I have no reason to get my G2 serviced. But I guess it should work.

Regards.

No stock recovery

Hi

See a few people have had the issue of stock recovery disappearing after flashing the kdz

After bootloop, managed to use OP's steps to flash europe open D80220D kdz

My intention was to root phone again, install TWRP and use backup image before bootloop

But I now have no stock recovery. Doing the steps to enter recovery, the phone resets and all data is lost, and just reboots.

Why would this happen? Will reflashing the same kdz file get recovery back?

Is there a separate partition for recovery that's somehow gone?

Thanks good people :good::good:
[G2 General] hyelton:
I've never seen anyone that "lost" recovery when going back stock... If the button combo your using is causing your phone to perform a factory reset then your using the wrong combination. 1 combo will do a factory reset, and the other will do recovery.

[G2 General] shumo:
hello

i wonder if you can help me clarify something before flashing the appropriate stock firmare

my phone is an D802 model, 32 GB , factory unlocked and it was purchased from a store with non carrier specific things on it

so basically it's an open EU phone, right ?

i see in the firmware list that the latest versions is D80220D_00.kdz . But it does not specify if this firmware is for 32gb or 16gb . Can you please clarify this ?

When i rooted my stock 4.4.2 firmware using ioroot, i then used an apk called AUTOREC to install custom recovery. During the installation it said that the bootloader needs to be downgraded to another version. It worked and everything seems to be ok. Since then i installed several custom roms ( CM11, etc ) and i am currently on optimusg3.

When i will flash the stock firmware, will i encounter any risk considering the bootloader is not the "default" one ?

Also , is it correct in selecting CDMA in lg flashing tool as suggested in the OP ? I have found several posts that say to select another thing . My operator works in GSM btw

Thanks and hopefully someone can help me clarify these as i do not want to brick my phone

thanks

---------- Post added at 12:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:28 PM ----------

hello , thanks for this info mate, helped me find a link for my original software which acording to this LG trick is D80220C_00.kdz

So my only 3 questions are :

1. as i see there is also a "newer?" verison called D80220D_00.kdz . Should i download the C one as recommended in the above XML or should i download the lastest D one?

2. still confused about selecting CDMA in lg flashtool . The xml says for me <prod_type>GSM</prod_type>

please if you can , help me clarify this

3. that XML gave a download link for D80220C_00.kdz directly from LGmobile's website. Is it the same as the one in the OP link ? or is the one in the OP modified in some way to make it compatible with lg flashing tool ?

PS: Sorry for these noob questions but ever since i briked my previous phone because of a "small print", i want to be 100%

thanks a bunch guys
[G2 General] <a href="">:
1. I would flash whatever firmware the official LG update tool link recommends. I would also download it directly from LG. LG's file naming convention is poor. They use the same name for many different firmwares, meaning that a D80220C.kdz could have the same name but different languages, 16/32GB etc.

2. Not sure it matters.

3. I would flash the firmware from the XML link. The link in the OP might have the same name but could be different (see point 1). The firmwares are not modified to make them compatible with the flashing tool.

Note that flashing this will erase everything on your phone, including the recovery and boot partitions. You'll need to root and install Autorec and recovery again. And you'll lose all your data.

Hi,

Anyone who has been successful at flashing the "Europe-Open-D80210A" or "Europe_Open_D80220X" files in the link from the OP ?

When I try to flash them, I always end up with a failure.

It is file related. If I take any other file, it will work.

Those are just a "NO GO" :(

Any idea ?

If not, maybe those should be removed from your page as they do not work...

I'll try a few things and I'll tell ya...

Regards.

[EDIT] I confirm that THE Europe Open D80210A.kdz file seems to be FUBAR ! The Europe Open D80220b is working. If there's a chance you can get the original "Europe Open D80210A" file back, I'd be grateful :)

Hi,

Cool... how did you root it ?

Did you use something like iORoot25 ?

If so, I think I've read somewhere that it is not working really well with 4.4.2 bases.

So, if you can, flash a 10X.kdz file and then root it.

Or if you really need 4.4.2, then stick to it, but use towelrrot to root it and then AutoRec to install your recovery.

I think I used those about 15 times within the last 5 days and I never had a BootLoop.

BEWARE : make sure you use the correct TWRP or CWM as there about 1 585 872 different versions of the G2 :)

Hope this helps.

Hi,

YES, I have seen this before and this used to drive me mad !!!

BUT this problem has a really simple fix. Just take another .kdz file. The one you have might be corrupted. I had this with the "Europe Open D80210A" .kdz provided fro the link in OP. NO GO. Exactly the same behavior as you describe.

Tried another .kdz file : works everytime.

Try back the (now) suspicious file : NO GO.

Conclusion : the .kdz file is at fault. I reported this so it can be taken away or replaced.

Hope this helps.

Reported what? All links on my server and OP are all working and nothing wrong with them not "Suspicious" , all files are uploaded by me and me only.

Anyone have more info on this? I assume I will need to flash an 802 international jellybean rom then root/recovery to be able to flash ROMS again? I assume I can use any international 802 kdz? I recall flashing a euro one a while back and it never worked properly with Australian apns for some reason so if anyone has a link or suggestion for an alternative kdz that would be appreciated.
[G2 General] NexusPenguin:
Hi Hyelton,

Please : no offense ! Your thread has helped me (and obviously A LOT of other people). So I really really thank you for that and can't say how grateful I am.

I do not doubt that all your files are genuine. I have taken several of your files and they do all work. Thinking of a potential problem with that specific file, I downloaded it 4 times. Each time is a "NO GO". I took the Europe 20X : they work flawlessly. So this is is just this one file... I did not "report" the file... Just mentioned in a previous post that I have experienced a problem with this file.

Now, if you (or anyone else) can take the file downloading it, and try to flash it... And, as I said : I have had problems only with that file. It's the following : "EUROPE OPEN D80210A". The next file "EUROPE OPEN D80220B" works like a charm, as does the "EUROPE OPEN D80220D".

I don't use download managers... I am on a fibre 200Mbps connection. Don't see the point :)

Again : many many thanks for your helpful post. As you may have noticed, I am trying to contribute and I am offering my help and experience to others as I have used your files about 50 times now to flash my LG G2 back and forth between Stock and custom ROM and to make sure my build for the G2 of a custom ROM I like (but that did not exist for the G2) is working. So again : this is really helpful and I appreciate your great work.

Regards.
