You might have the wrong APNs, since I'm also on TMO.

I use aDownloader and it works fine. I even tried uTorrent just to see and that worked.

Here's a warning about clearing your Google Service Framework that's suggested above, so try this method at your own risk or just wait for the update to push to your phone.

Not with T-Mobile. I just called them saying my SIM wasn't working right and they noted my account so I could go to a store and get it for free. I did it yesterday and got 25 bucks.

I wouldn't think it would be more then 10 bucks if they did charge ya. If you do the Amex thing you should still make money. Setting up Isis took me around 30 mins til I saw $25 in my account. 5-10 mins putting info then like 20 mins for it to process. You need to be in a good reception area.

Also, the status bar, when you pull it down, from lock screen to, for example swipe a.notification away, or skip track, you have to roll it back up, to double tap screen back off. This is very annoying while.driving. used to be able to.swipe or.skip track and double tap..done.

Did anyone do the factory reset only to fix the Bluetooth wakelock? Currently that is all I have tried to remedy the issue with no success.
[T-Mobile LG G2] AnteusFogg:
The bluetooth wakelock doesn't affect the battery life. Might be misreporting but just don't mind it. Battery's great on KK
[T-Mobile LG G2] Sfkn2:
I had the bluetooth wakelock (if you read back from this thread), which caused a huge battery drain to the point where I lost 50% or so battery in just 1.5 hours. I resetted and went easy on the battery, and now I'm back to 3 days per charge.
[T-Mobile LG G2] OhioDroid80:
I will give it a fee more charge cycles.
[T-Mobile LG G2] accordex:
See, I updated to kk, then factory reset before setting anything up. I used to wake up at 7, do 15 mins of reading, drive to work, load up, and by 9-10 am turn on podcasts, with battery still at 100...now it's at 94-97... and drains constantly while screen is off. The other day I had 22% left, went to bed, woke up, battery was dead. This never happened on 4.2...it would drain like 1% every 5 hours, if that, if I didn't touch the phone. Something is definitely not right.

Also, wakelock detector, won't run on 4.4 unless it's rooted? Is there something else I can use?
[T-Mobile LG G2] Sfkn2:
I've been using gsam, but the information is very limited as well.
[T-Mobile LG G2] accordex:
I'll check it out, but if this keeps up without an update I'm going back to 4.2

Anyone else notice when screen is off and you get a call, it takes 3 seconds for the screen to come on? It rings but screen is black.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Sfkn2:
Yes, I've noticed the lag there. Did it do that on 4.2?
[T-Mobile LG G2] j0hnZ:
I'd never seen lag on this phone until the KK update. I haven't factory reset though either.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Sfkn2:
I did a factory reset to get rid of the Bluetooth wake lock and I have this.
[T-Mobile LG G2] jimgustafson74:

It did, but only a split sec, not this badly.

[T-Mobile LG G2] jimgustafson74:
The way i understood it is if you ota while rooted with twrp you will bootloop, the safest way if your rooted with twrp is to use the kdz file.
[T-Mobile LG G2] magestic1995:
If you don't have twrp or cwm you can use the Ota. Also make sure to not have xsposed. This will cause root lose.

It's the thread to install Kit Kat with root and TWRP. The only thing I did differently was that I used the app FreeGee in the Play Store to install TWRP (it installs 2.6.3.3, I think), then flashed the version of TWRP that's recommended in the guide. As always, flash at your own risk.

so, being new to the g2 (t-mo) and probably sounding very stupid but will there be a root kit for KK update or has lg stumped us? reverting to 4.2.2 is a pain and none of the methods have worked for me :( running on windows 7 and tried on a ubuntu machine as well and no luck so am i stuck with bloatware and stock rom
[T-Mobile LG G2] abdel12345:

Being new to the G2 forum and updating immediately when I got my phone (like an idiot) has left me slightly overwhelmed with so many forums and threads about the different models makes it difficult to find information like this unless I am just overlooking it like an idiot, which is probably the case :silly:

You can downgrade to 4.2.2 if you want Root that badly. There's a guide on how to flash stock kdz and just search it and follow it if you want. I'd stock with kitkat though. It's smoother experience v and just wait for root

[T-Mobile LG G2] Howie Dub:
I don't think there's a flash counter. You just have to remember to do a full reset where you wipe everything on your phone if you want to return it to full stock. Even if you unroot, download mode will still show as rooted until you do a complete reset. Not sure if it has to be a hard reset (volume down + power, let go at LG logo, then press again) or if it will work with reset through the reset menu.

IMPORTANT: when flashing 4.4.2 rom in twrp it will take a while then say FAILED...DONT BELIVE IT, it flashes,just remember to NOT imediately reboot but go back ti INSTALL and flash SU zip (which also says failed), them cam mod(once again says failed) but DOES FLASH.
