the camera seems to load faster and focus faster as well, but it still has the focus breathing for video.

have you checked here to see if it's on LG's servers? That's how I found out about the new build. Just enter your IMEI number and it will tell you the latest software version for your phone.

I've gone back to rooted 4.2.2 and am waiting for the OTA since the AT&T folks seem to have kept root after OTA.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Howie Dub:
The last update was on LG's servers about a month before they pushed it OTA.
[T-Mobile LG G2] akong702:
So you're rooted with TWRP recovery and you just flashed the kdz with no problems?
[T-Mobile LG G2] Howie Dub:
yes, I was rooted with twrp and had quite a number of bloat disabled. The only thing that was replaced with the support tool was the system, so all the bloat was enabled. I still have all my pictures and apps.
[T-Mobile LG G2] easyguy:
if I flash the KDZ using the LG tool, will that basically wipe my whole phone storage? I'm uploading all my pictures to drive right now just in case. If that is not the case I can stop the uploading.
[T-Mobile LG G2] snowlin:
yes it will, i made the mistake of not backing up my storage and now i have nothing :\

but the update is nice. pretty snappy
[T-Mobile LG G2] Howie Dub:
I uploaded mine just in case, but nothing was wiped for me. I think all it does is replace your system. I followed the instructions here. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2471370&highlight=unbrick and did the upgrade recovery through the options menu instead of clicking on Start Upgrade. Some people have had issues with this method, but it works for me.

It will take about 45 minutes to download the software and about 5-10 to install. I got an error saying the tool had failed to reach the server and if I wanted to stop the upgrade. Funny thing was my phone was upgrading still, so unless you don't see any activity on your phone, don't stop the upgrade. My phone then rebooted although it was showing that it was still upgrading in the support tool. Then it crashed, but my upgrade was already complete.

I think he's asking if root might be retained through the kdz flash using something like SuperSU survival mode.

[T-Mobile LG G2] Howie Dub:
Maybe this? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2432476

What I did was open the support tool, then put the phone into download mode. After it detected the phone, I selected upgrade recovery in the options menu and it downloaded the software and installed it on my phone. Took about 45 minutes to an hour between the download and the installation. After the download, your phone should start updating. As long as it's updating on your phone, don't worry about any error message you might get on your computer.
[T-Mobile LG G2] spazattac:
Well can't wait for the OTA update to come and hopefully there will be a guide on how to keep root
[T-Mobile LG G2] SmiLey497:
Great Success!!!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2] SinisterWaze:

[T-Mobile LG G2] MikeJennni:
I feel your pain. I'm stuck. Its not like Odin where you get to choose.
[T-Mobile LG G2] mmmboba:
So did you actually keep root?
[T-Mobile LG G2] Hid3rs:
You guys have to use the R&D Test Tool (d/l Flash Tool 1.0.54., extract and start UpTestEX), not the Mobile Support Tool (you had to install that because it also installs necessary drivers).
[T-Mobile LG G2] MikeJennni:
Ok LG Mobile Support Tool just automatically updated me to KK no data lost and I even have my theme!!

[T-Mobile LG G2] Chughes13x:
A flashable zip would be greatly appreciated! :good:
[T-Mobile LG G2] SmiLey497:
It wipes your recovery and I can't seem to find a way to get TWRP back on. If you guys really want it I'll put later tonight. The ROM itself is not rooted, you would need to flash the superuser zip after.

Ahh, okay. I thought you meant having battery saver turned on, not the mode for location. No, not working for weather or maps. Personally, I think wifi+mobile drains more than straight gps.

My tmo phone was not detected at first using lg tool, I was on PA, so what I did was downloaded one of the stock rooted roms and flashed it. After that I connected again and this time select from the usb drop down list as using LG software or something like that then it detected the phone fine.

Anyone knows why my data cannot connect to certain websites? I'm guessing updating to kk should have installed a new modem right?

He has a ROM in the T-Mobile development forum that you can flash. And someone correct me if I'm wrong, but you lose custom recovery if you flashed the stock kdz, so you'll have to revert back to 4.2.2, root, install recovery, then flash his ROM.

I cannot get my "update center" to close/stop/finish. Right now Feather is just sitting in my notification tray as being 1/10 to update or download or something. I did a "dirty" flash with the update tool found in the "back to stock" thread. I kept all original data and obviously lost root. Is this still pending because it cannot associate with the necessary file because I have it uninstalled or frozen from my 4.2.2 stock rom?
[T-Mobile LG G2] stevessvt:
So kingoapp wrote me back about updating to include our phones with KK on it. This is what they wrote:

As to 4.4 firmware, the known root methods are all via flashing custom recovery, which requires a lot manual operations and involves huge risks. So, I am sorry, it is not supported.

So it looks like that is a dead end for now...

Also, does anyone know how hard would it be to get the tap & pay to work? Or would we have to download the D802 ROM for that?

I kind of wish I got the unlocked att one but wireless charging is a really,nice feature. Hopefully later devices from lg are all similar and all have it.

Once root is prevalent, G2 Xposed has an option to enable the AOSP lockscreen. Unless LG is completely stupid, they should have included the 4.4 lock screen. It should work on that.

They're stupid then. You get a box that takes up about the top third of the lock screen and shows album art and controls. But it's not full screen album art like stock 4.4.2.

Why do these OEMs have to change everything? The way stock 4.4.2 displays album art is perfect.

I'm almost in the dark as you are. from what I understand is that you need the kdz file for use with the LG Flashtool, which is different from LG Mobile Support Tool. My problem is figuring out how to use the Flashtool. If you are lucky you may not need the kdz file. Connecting to the LG support tool may start your upgrade by itself. Sadly it's not picking up my phone for the KK update???? Help us "enthusiasts

[T-Mobile LG G2] pitchdarkice:
just like [MENTION=990376]raysucio[/MENTION] said. if you use the lg pc suite software you don't have to worry about a kdz and just check for a software update within the lg pc suite. if you choose to use the lg mobile support tool, then yes you will need the kdz as referenced in the OP
[T-Mobile LG G2] expertzero1:
if you're on a non stock rom like aosp, then you have to use the kdz, theres a thread here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2432476.

How to flash ROM:

1) Download the kdz file

2) Download LG mobile support tool and Install it. (It will open up when its done just CLOSE IT OFF)

LG Mobile Support Tool Download

3) Download / Install FlashTool (R&D Test Tool) & Drivers

Download Here

4) If you're on a aosp rom, Go to recovery and wipe system files, cache, etc. If you're on a stock rom, then you can use the mobile support tool to update, so dont wipe any files.

5) Power off your G2, press Volume Up & and then plug in the usb cable (enter to a download mode)

6) Extract FlashTool and run UpTestEX.exe

6) In R&D Test Tool window,

Select Type = 3GQCT (top left hand side)

PhoneMode = DIAG (top right hand side)

Select kdz file = click to select your LG stock rom *.kdz

Click "Normal web upgrade test" (bottom right hand side)

Then another window will pop up, click "Upgrade Start" button

wait a few seconds, another window "Select Country & Language" pop up,

=> Country=Republic of Korea

=> Language=English

you can click ok to proceed

7) All Done and wait for finish!

Hello everyone. First of all, I appreciate your work very much! Thanks a lot

I've been using 2.1 Stock (I tried some ROMs long ago but they were still buggy). Today I tried FroyoPro 2.5 and it worked perfectly but one thing: the ANT+ service, which I use 3-4 times a week. I've read threads about people asking for ANT+ but i have found no solution in them.

Tried some ROMs without success and ended up softbricking my phone. I got it solved now.

Do you know any stable ROM using 2.2+ that can support ANT+? I can't unlock boot (it's amongst the newest revisions) and have to run stock kernel, and sticking to 2.1 and Android Market is killing me.
