LOL... OK. You're right about knock code, I was talking about 4k video. The article you linked:

I don't know why people get their hopes up so high on this stuff. :rolleyes:
[G2 General] stetre76:
sorry, but the translation you're providing for the article is crap!

The original article read in German has a total different meaning than what you (or the online translator you're using) are translating...
[G2 General] carbon12:
Yeah... Google is crap. :rolleyes:

Your translation:

Google's translation:

And I agreed with you... I was wrong about the Knock Code statement. I had 4K video recording stuck in my head. Don't be so mad.

Would it make you feel better if I edited my comments?
[G2 General] afrizal87:
soo..it just misleading information about knock code,4k video recording?so thats it, we only get white status bar,and running smoother in kitkat?
[G2 General] Dri94:
No matter what if your on kitkat you can flasg the camera mid to get 4k
[G2 General] stetre76:
never said google itself was crap, BUT the thing is, I am a (German) native speaker, so I really do think that I know what the article says and reads.

That's the problem with online translators - they can translate the single words and put them together, but sometimes the real meaning (of the original text) is kinda lost...

about 4k recoring - true, this might only be available with root, but again, we can't be sure of that...not yet anyway.

My native language is also German, and I can confirm what you are saying.

Where?
[G2 General] Arkangel786:
Source?
[G2 General] Fir3blade:
What what source?

There is no word like unbranded in his posting, so this is old news.
[G2 General] mhoss48:
This means u started downloading it via OtA ? :sly::what:

Sent from my LG G2
[G2 General] :
it looks like unbranded will be per country. As providers are first pushing I think unbranded will come after. weird delivery model
[G2 General] Arkangel786:
He said LG have started the update - the 'old news' you refer to is that certain 'carriers' are rolling out OTA's. There is a difference.

Take that condescending attitude somewhere else.
[G2 General] bobsie41:
It would appear that this is the way updates are now done at least it was on my last device (HTC one) and is on my wife's Galaxy Note 3.

---------- Post added at 05:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:47 PM ----------

It's the translation of the beginning of the article !

"Depuis quelques heures, la firme sud-coréenne a officiellement confirmé le passage à KitKat, vers la version d’Android 4.4.2 pour être exact, à destination de l’intégralité de ses*LG G2*au niveau mondial."

"For several hours, the South Korean company has officially confirmed the move to KitKat, to version Android 4.4.2 to be exact, to all its LG G2 globally"
[G2 General] Arkangel786:
Looks interesting. Let's hope it's true.
[G2 General] tester5224:
he's absolutely right. d802 is the international model. saying that lg started the update for the international model is indeed old news. because the operators roms like vodafione (witch is the same international model) also get their kk roms directly from lg.

if he meant the update for non operators roms (open ones) he should state that, and gives some kind of source to that statement. so far, we have 2 pages with nothing but empty speculations.

and about the attitude... it can be said to you too
[G2 General] Fir3blade:
Exactly.

[MENTION=497038]Arkangel[/MENTION],

[G2 General] abdel12345:
Would any other VERIZON! users want a separate thread for us like the at&t and tmobile ones since we still haven't gotten it and I'm sure verizon is going to mess around and change stuff. So we can discuss it there without having lots of other versions mixed in confusing things up. Its easier to have each device specific thing separate.

Should I make a thread or not? (I don't want to make it for no reason And have it get closed so I'm asking here)
[G2 General] edruig:

According to android authority we're getting knock code... but there's no source and I don't know how true this is though it would make sense. Now we won't have to try to port if it's true:)
[G2 General] GranFlash:
That's better for us. Official firmware is just brilliant !
[G2 General] RayTrue04:
I don't know why they haven't done that from the get go. Every other device has its own carrier section (Galaxy S3/S4, NoteII/III, HTC One, LG Optimus G and so on). It does get very confusing in here. I guess nobody cares no more as the Mega threads are just as mixed up and confusing. I have both so I know how much of an ordeal it is to find stuff, especially when using the xda app and you do a search it gives you a list of other stuff you're not looking for.
[G2 General] barondebxl:
I just received My AT&T G2 today, its on 4.2.2. Should i upgrade to kitkat and retain root or stay on JB and flash a custom rom?
[G2 General] GranFlash:
Root it and then upgrade via OTA
[G2 General] barondebxl:
Wont break root? Im already rooted.
[G2 General] GranFlash:
That's good. It's important to keep permission to root on JB because on KitKat you wouldnt be able to break it for now.

Be patient waiting for it on Verizon. They have been strange lately. Going from last to first to who knows when for updates...I guess they did Motorola a favor when they pushed KitKat for MotoX so fast.

Thinking of going back to the G2 , wanted to ask if

* The camera result is any better in Kit kat ? ( issues like slow focus ? blur pics in low light etc ) ?

I see UK is due KitKat just some time this month. Is there a stock d802 rom I can manually flash now with no carrier stuff or should I wait for official over the air?
[G2 General] stetre76:
so far there are only carrier-versions available.

but most users here say that there's not too much bloatware involved.

list of the available carrier-updates can be found in this thread.
[G2 General] bobsie41:
Perhaps wait. Hull should be the first in the UK to get the update, rumour has it, in my neck of the woods, is that it is coming across here on the North Sea ferry after the European release. ;)
[G2 General] ephumuris:
Thanks for the list looks like i can flash the french release with minimal fuss. And hopefully root it to further tweak it.

My brother works on the docks so maybe he can grab it off the ferry and rush it round to my house where I will lure it in with a patty butty and chip spice and a promise to take it down ten foot and give it one?!?!

Then when it least expects it boom I can flash it...

I hear the update will be skipping Hornsea due to some sort of mixing of the gene pool going on there. Some mention of gills and webbed feet so I hear ;)
[G2 General] bobsie41:
:eek: Yer, I'd heard that too. Later I'll get my head's together with my source of this rumour and see if I can get to the truth. :D

I don't know if its real or not. But its not working as it's working on LG G Pro 2 , and as it should ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrheE8e3FSA

The idea is to replace knock on with direct knock code that is turning on the screen and unlocking it with a single action, while preventing the screen to turn on by mistake, because its more complex than just double tap.

anyway, if this is how knock code working on the G2, it's just lame. its the same idea as pattern locking, just a bit different.

When you have the Wind mobile D801 which has no support then you will understand and yes its the same as the Tmobile but here is the kicker the Tmobile version would be like D801.1 and the Wind/Videotron version is like D801.2 so the roms don't work on the Wind/Vid version.

Thus is why going to the Nexus 5 was such a big option for me.

There are no compromises on this ROM that I've come across in 5 days. Yes, it still has knock on...

Go get Mahdi and thank me. Make sure your recovery is at least 2.6.3.3 before starting!

Oh and BTW, I'm on the least supported model the d803 and it still works..

Sorry to tell me? Well maybe if I thought you knew what you were taking about then I'd be sorry.

However, with statements like that, you obviously don't.

So don't be sorry, because Mahdi is all around superior to stock in every single way. You're kidding yourself if you think otherwise...
[G2 General] marleyinoc:
Certainly all of this is off topic. BUT what lg features are better than what you can use on custom roms. The big one for me was IR Remote. I restored that app which they made pretty easy to do, credit LG. The multi window stuff doesn't really do anything for me. Heck, I don't really do multi window stuff on my 42" monitor. Multi tasking is pretty easy by just switching back and forth.

I loved LG 4.2.2, I admit. Fantastic. I also really like CM 11 and as of edit 3/3 nightly I've not even had any issues. Far from trash.

[G2 General] coburn_c:
Knock on is proprietary, and the ported solutions I've seen are dubious. The LG launcher has some neat features, like custom icons, the animated weather lock screen, and the skinnable accuweather widget. Smart screen maybe, not sure if that has a reliable port. Plus the native video player has wide codec support and the dialer comes with a blacklist. This is actually the first stock ROM I've found that I could live with.
[G2 General] spiderio:
Hi, because you are using mahdi rom, its make me want to flash it

But before

Can I ask a few thing,

1. Are the Knock On feature exist?

2. Are the IR Remote works

3. Are the camera works as good as stock?

Thanks
[G2 General] marleyinoc:
I agree the stock LG is completely satisfactory. I like CM and their version of AOSP--including knock on which, forgive me, actually works first time--and okay sometimes the phone won't knock on because it is rebooting or off--but it's been a couple days now for me that that's happened :)

I've bought a slew of apps that many OEMs (and Google) now mimic or have purchased--especially widgets and weather apps. And I'm not really trying to argue a point here other than saying... CM on the G2 really does rock for me. So did stock.

[G2 General] OrionBG:
The Visual changes that you want are only for the Nexus/GPE devices that run stock Android. Every manufacturer have its own stilled interface and they have nothing to do with the Android Version number. Big companies like Samsung, LG, Sony and others are selling an Experience! 99% of the customers don't even know what version of Android are they using (and don't care) but if the manufacturer change something (with an update) in the Customer Experience, there will be allot of complains that the Manufacturers don't want! Samsung tried it once in the past and this didn't prove to be a good idea.
