Installation guide for F320LSK for noobs - need help

I´m pretty new to flashing ROMs and would need a little clarification before I dare to go ahead.

I´ve just gone back to stock F320L 11c firmware, rooted the device and installed CWM-F320L-ENGLISH-6.0.4.4.

So now, how to go from here?

These are the concise and somewhat cryptic instructions from the beginning of this thread:

* How to Up:

+ With F320LSK.

- Ask me to do according to the order given.

- Use this recovery Recovery 6.0.4.4 to flash VDT-V11.

- Download the rom the rom and extract the patch.

- 3 Wipe -> Flash V11 -> Flash Patch -> Reboot.

If I understand that correctly, this means:

1. Execute the batch file from "F320LSK&D802 RECOVERY".

In my case, is this step still necessary, since I have already installed CWM 6.0.4.4 (see above)?

2. a) wipe data/factory reset;

b) wipe cache;

c) wipe dalvik;

3. Flash ROM: "VDT-V11.5 Super Lite F320.zip"

4. Flash Patch: F320LSK.zip

5. Reboot

Please feel free to comment on whether that´s correct or not. I just recovered from a 5-day-bricking-experience and don´t want to be stuck in bootloop etc. any more. But of course: No risk - no fun!

Thanks guys.
[G2 Android Development (D802)] midreestaj:
That is correct method, also format system before flashing both zips
[G2 Android Development (D802)] Parinibbana:
OK, I will do.

There is one last concern before I start:

Ever since my installation of a wrong firmware on my F320L (Korean variant) a few months ago, I can´t get into stock-recovery any more. At that time I didn´t install CWM or TWRP, nor did I flash any custom ROMs, but something must have broken the recovery along the line. Since then I could never get into recovery mode or use the hard factory reset function, even though after installation of the right firmware for my device, everything else worked fine again. Download mode too is OK.

Now I have recently flashed stock-firmware (F320L 11c), rooted and installed CWM 6.0.4.4.

Interestingly I can´t access CWM via the hardware-keys either, just as the problem before with the stock recovery, but I can get into CWM if I use the adb command to boot into recovery.

But in order to do that the device must be fully functional and bootable, otherwise adb won´t work. I am a bit concerned that if anything happens and I were to soft-brick my device, I wouldn´t get into CWM-recovery any more, since it is not accessible via hardware key-combination, but only over the adb-command.

Anybody got an idea how to solve this issue?
[G2 Android Development (D802)] basti2909:
Could u boot via boot recovery app from market into recovery?
[G2 Android Development (D802)] Parinibbana:
I didn´t try, but I am pretty sure that would work.

If the command to enter recovery comes via software, such as adb, recovery can be entered. No problem.

But that doesn´t help much if one is p.e. stuck in bootloop.
[G2 Android Development (D802)] John Peers:
I have flashed de V11 version for D802 through CWM with full wipe, now rom works ok, but I lost CWM, and I can't reflash it. Please anyone could help me? I need recovery for return to slimkat. :(
[G2 Android Development (D802)] Parinibbana:
I also installed the latest version of this fantastic ROM (11.5) today. Works fine.

John Peers, I am afraid to tell you that there is no custom recovery possible for Kitkat-ROMs yet. Neither CWM nor TWRP.

If you wish to return to Slimkat-ROM, you will have to go back to stock firmware based on Android 4.2 or. 4.3 first (using download mode), then root the device and install custom-recovery (CWM if you like).

There is no custom-recovery for Kitkat so far, which was mentioned a couple of times in this thread already.

So guys be warned. After flashing this VDT-ROM, you will lose your recovery, even though root is already integrated and fully functional.
[G2 Android Development (D802)] John Peers:
How can I do a donwgrade? I have tried this tutorial in windows 8, but shttp3 it doesn't work.

http://www.droidviews.com/how-to-restore-lg-g2-to-stock-firmware/

I can't live without recovery!!
[G2 Android Development (D802)] Parinibbana:
If you flash ROMs frequently and don´t want to take the burden of always going back to the original firmware (.tot-file using LGFlashTool in download mode), followed by rooting and recovery-installation, you shouldn´t install this ROM.

Maybe later somebody finds a way to install custom-recovery on Kitkat, but that´s how it is for now.
[G2 Android Development (D802)] Maxximo88:
Hi, no news about new 20B based VDT-Rom for D802?

I'm actually using the VDT V11 on my LG G2 D802, and it works really well!
[G2 Android Development (D802)] Maxximo88:
Yes, I'm asking about 11.5 for D802. If you want I can translate your guide in Italian in order to help G2 Italian users to better understand. ;)

I've worked in traslating other G2 staff, like this.
[G2 Android Development (D802)] Yamahar6riding:
All just because I keep reading over and over his there is no way to keep recovery, while the is true with this particular ROM it is not true with all LG UI based Kitkat ROMs as Devs have figured out how to keep the old recovery and point the kernel from kitkat to it. Here is an example

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2680745

[ROM][Mar 22] -=- CloudyPro II 1.1 -=- [D800/D801/D802/F320]

Note Optimus also has one
[G2 Android Development (D802)] Parinibbana:
Generally speaking, that´s fine with me. If you think there are Italian-speakers who could find it beneficial, please go ahead and translate it. By the way, are you Italian?

Before translating, maybe you want to wait one or two days for people´s comments - just in case there are some suggestions for improvement.

I´m glad to hear you appreciate it.
[G2 Android Development (D802)] Maxximo88:
Of course I'm italian ;) Ok so let me know when you need to translate it, maybe with PM. Later, you can update the guide with a spoiler for italian users. :good:
[G2 Android Development (D802)] Parinibbana:
Thanks for pointing that out. The "10 Step Installation Guide" on p.81 has been updated accordingly.
[G2 Android Development (D802)] midreestaj:
You can also flash and then enter recovery through fastboot interface by following command in cmd

"fastboot flash recovery CWM.img"

"fastboot reboot recovery"
[G2 Android Development (D802)] Parinibbana:
Interesting, but what can I do to get the hardware-key combination working again?
[G2 Android Development (D802)] thyk888358:
Great Rom, thank you very much. However, i find LG weather and notebook not working as it requires update and it seems like update center is not available or not working. Is there anyway to make it works?

On the other hand, LG Smart World never works for me and i only have 1 country to choose and it is in Korea. As a result it says the service not available in my country. I am using F320L/S ...

Thank you.

Hi.

I´m coming from Optimus ROM, flashed v12 (flashed ROM, SuperSU, 802 Patch, full wipe).

CWM seems to be lost.

Would it be possible to flash modded boot.img (savoca) and cwm again via ADB?

Wifi is not working propperly. Can´t connect to network, always trying to get IP - stuck there. Tried 3 different Wifi networks.

[G2 Android Development (D802)] rawdaddymagraden:
I think what he means does the knock code work while the screen is off without having to first wake the phone then put in knock code. It is supposed to work by simply putting in the code while phone is sleeping but from what I read is it is not working on our device due to kernel issues.
[G2 Android Development (D802)] Parinibbana:
Thanks for clarification. I wasn't aware that due to kernel issues it doesn't work while the phone is sleeping.

[G2 Android Development (D802)] thyk888358:
if you're on jb 4.2.2 .. you need to root and then install recovery 6.0.4.4 ... then install another recovery provided by cloudy called f320_philz_cloudy... then follow cloudy instruction.

if you're on 4.4 ... you can still install recovery 6.0.4.4 but remember you must get everything downloaded and put in your phone because after installing that recovery your phone can only boot into recovery and let you install things.

if you're already on 4.4.2 ... you need to return to 4.2.2.
