I don't think we'll see access to our files like even you have.

They've locked down Sprint pretty tight.

I've also looked at your BIN file and suggest you guys reach out to the Bin Extractor dev.

He might be able to help you parse it out.
[Sprint LG G2] koftheworld:
That's a great suggestion. What's funny is I didn't mean to post that message here.
[Sprint LG G2] infirno77:
That's why I pay the extra insurance, plus the sprint store is down the street, so if it won't boot after update, and I can't fix it, just exchange it.
[Sprint LG G2] mtg981:
Did the recovery work for you infirno77? I had to manually holds power button to reboot.
[Sprint LG G2] p2cactus:
Do you guys remember if the zvb software version got posted on the LG site? Hoping not so that seeing zvc means ota really is close.
[Sprint LG G2] riggsandroid:
Zvb was internal sprint build only. Zvc will be released just have to wait.
[Sprint LG G2] infirno77:
I have to get a charge on my battery before I mess with it, but I'll let you know what I come up with.

Thanks again.
[Sprint LG G2] mtg981:
Your welcome. If you put that file in your flashify backup folder, you should be able to restore it like I did without doing any changes to it.
[Sprint LG G2] infirno77:
No such luck. I think I'll keep my twrp until I can get or make a flashable img or zip. I'll work on it.
[Sprint LG G2] mtg981:
Sorry friend, this is my first lg product. I've always had HTC so I'm still unfamiliar with how lg is set up.
[Sprint LG G2] Williek113:
Coming from the LG Optimus S LS670, I got an update in 2011 around 8ish for some background maybe on LG.
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
Yeah but we had some very.... odd... situations with the Opt S. I still have my 2 in a drawer... but on a MVNO so no good.
[Sprint LG G2] infirno77:
Yeah, I'm used to Samsung's and a couple of htcs and a zte or two. Thanks anyway.
[Sprint LG G2] joshuajones:
I have 2 optimus v's I use as puppy cams when I'm away from home. Might as well use them for something
[Sprint LG G2] mtg981:
I still have OG evo, evo lte, s3, and 2 lg g2's. What a collection that is worth nothing as far as trade ins. Good for emergency extras though.
[Sprint LG G2] Threevo:
Some guy from verizon got it
[Sprint LG G2] Enter The Nexus:
We won. Verizon guys found a way. Hopefully we could end up helping you Sprint guys very soon if you pull the update file (the .bin).
[Sprint LG G2] Threevo:
Nope not yet! Only one guy got it ..
[Sprint LG G2] Enter The Nexus:
He's going to help us all get it tomorrow once he gives us the steps. Good luck everyone. What happened to the guy who compiled the source?
[Sprint LG G2] abhinav.tella:
According to a guy, who pasted his chat transcript with a rep on the Sprint Forum, it's "already" coming in waves based on serial number. Don't know how much they really know considering its not even mentioned on the Sprint or LG update sites.
[Sprint LG G2] Trina9:
What they told him is exactly what they told me when I called and asked why the HTC One Max was getting KitKat before us.

I don't think they have a clue, but it's good entertainment watching.
[Sprint LG G2] mistermidas:
I don't get why people keep asking sprint reps anything...like...at all.
[Sprint LG G2] Trina9:
Good entertainment? It's quite amazing when the answer the question five different ways in the same thread.
[Sprint LG G2] abhinav.tella:
True, but it does show that they are incompetent or simply placating us like some hostage negotiator with delaying messages lol.

I forgot to mention the rep said he could see that the guy was in que to get the update but he couldnt push it himself because it was based on serial number order lol.
[Sprint LG G2] wcr84:
They told me two weeks ago that the update should have already hit my phone. Lady went through the steps to bring in update. I wanted to laugh but kept on for the entertainment. When I told her it said my system was up to date. She told me I needed to schedule an appointment with the repair center to get my phone looked at.
[Sprint LG G2] abhinav.tella:
Lol, he/she needs an appointment with a psychiatrist, for delusions.
[Sprint LG G2] savoca:
I won't be getting my G2 back until Tuesday so in the case of KK coming before that, I would really like someone to dump a boot.img asap. :)

Also if someone could try .TOT back to ZV7 after they take the KK update, and post results, that would be great too.
[Sprint LG G2] ceyo14:
Did it come out already?
[Sprint LG G2] Enter The Nexus:
No the source code and kernel info was released by LG. No official update.

You Sprint guys should look on the update tool and pull the update like we did.
[Sprint LG G2] Stl Dark Knight:
Elaborate how you did that? Details please.
[Sprint LG G2] mjskraju:
Don't worry Sprint will take more time & you may not miss the update as it first comes. Really can't make any sense out of the way Sprint gone about this update, even the older devices like HTC One Maxx..(it's not even a flagship like HTC One or S4) has been updated :mad::mad:
[Sprint LG G2] Enter The Nexus:
Check the VZW thread. I don't know for sure how to do it.
[Sprint LG G2] abhinav.tella:
Last I checked the CDMA versions of the G2 weren't listed on the update tool, unless I am mistaken.
[Sprint LG G2] Enter The Nexus:
The Sprint version isn't listed.
[Sprint LG G2] abhinav.tella:
Oh weird when I checked a while back neither were there...

Just for entertainment while speaking to a rep about billing I asked about the update:

You: I was wondering when my LG G2 gets the 4.4.2 ZVC update?

Dillon E.: Let me check it for you

Dillon E.: We don't have any update for the same. Once we get anything, all the customer will be dully notified

You: ok

You: thanks
[Sprint LG G2] wcr84:
Call back and I bet they say yes that update started rolling out march 1st.
[Sprint LG G2] ksweeley:
Well, I wonder if the ZVC update bootup screen will have "Powered by Android" as per a newly mandated requirement for all new and current devices that utilizes Google Mobile Services certification to visibly display on bootup "Powered by Android": http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/0...android-bootup-logo-to-get-gms-certification/ and http://www.engadget.com/2014/03/28/powered-by-android/
[Sprint LG G2] Williek113:
Saw this in my Google Now feed.
[Sprint LG G2] joshuajones:
Now you know about the wonderful world of poop sex
[Sprint LG G2] abhinav.tella:
Well I just installed the Firmware Update Utility, don't see either Verizon or Sprint G2 models listed. Did you install some other program?
[Sprint LG G2] Trina9:
You should follow the Sprint Community threads, funny as hell.
[Sprint LG G2] wcr84:
Yeah I liked the one about buying a kitkat bar at Walmart and the guy taping it to his phone
[Sprint LG G2] abhinav.tella:
Yep that guy Frustratedinedwardsville he's like in every other thread lol, I'm sure Sprint already deleted some of his posts, he's turned the Sprint Community Forum into his little kingdom lol. If theres a new thread he's likely to post before the Sprint care guys lol.
[Sprint LG G2] autoprime:
so unlike the Verizon OTA files... it's not possible to guess our update URL.

our updates look like this:

ZV7 to ZV8:
http://android.clients.google.com/packages/ota/sprint_lge_g2/c283462e1909b518179e29816cc70ff069335163.LS980ZV7_01-LS980ZV8_13_update.zip

ZV8 to ZVA:
http://android.clients.google.com/packages/ota/sprint_lge_g2/b71e7439452ef19c43d9a5d67deedda7aee4e31c.LS980ZV8_13-LS980ZVA_01_update.zip

Some kind of hash/checksum is included in the file name so.... yeah.. not happening.

To make things easy... the first person here to get the OTA notification should check their cache folder for the filename. We can then apply the file name to the URLs above to all download the update zip. May need to be rooted to view the cache folder.

If you are NOT rooted and just want the stock f/w... run a logcat (adb logcat > derp.txt) right before you click "install now" on the downloaded update notification... in the logcat will be the URL/filename of the file... you'll be able to search "ZVC" to find it easily.
[Sprint LG G2] Stl Dark Knight:
Once someone shows that the OTA is out, I'll be calling Sprint to get them to push it directly to my phone. I waited long enough! Patience is running thin since AT&T and T-Mobile release awhile ago. Man I hope this delay is for Wi-Fi Calling and or Knock Code. Why would LG release the source code and Sprint wait this long? What is the delay, it better not be for the S5 which the G2 practically still runs neck to neck with on specs!
[Sprint LG G2] riggsandroid:
Effff yeeeeew
[Sprint LG G2] thelgog:
So let me get this straight once I can take the ota all I have to do is flash that file you gave me a while back
[Sprint LG G2] p2cactus:
I think we are going to see the update tomorrow. My guess is the build got finished too late for the logistics stuff to support a Friday release. Getting it out tomorrow would still allow LG to say they met first quarter, which they publicized as when folks would have kk.
[Sprint LG G2] wcr84:
I hope you are right. But I still think they are holding that update for some reason.
[Sprint LG G2] ghostcamed302:
I hope there not holding it because of the S5, that's just (insert a choice word). Personally I think they found a issue and fixed it or added WiFi calling and maybe knock on.

Sent from my LG G2 on the Now Network
[Sprint LG G2] Stl Dark Knight:
I want KitKat and Knock Code and WiFi Calling. There I said it! Lol
[Sprint LG G2] ghostcamed302:
For the wait it would be worth it.

Sent from my LG G2 on the Now Network
[Sprint LG G2] mistermidas:
I damn sure hope so or sprint will have a sh*+ ton of upset customers. But even if it does come tomorrow it'd be bittersweet, since we still don't have a root method for kitkat yet...only work-arounds
[Sprint LG G2] p2cactus:
I can't imagine they are holding the update for the s5. This phone has only been on Sprint for 6 months so no one that has this phone is eligible for an upgrade. It would just be people straight up purchasing the s5 and I can't imagine there are enough g2 owners doing that to make any difference. They might be sitting on the update for some reason, but isn't the s5.
[Sprint LG G2] ghostcamed302:
The only phone I'm thinking about getting is the M8 but that's after selling my note 2 and saving up money for a few months to buy one straight out.

Sent from my LG G2 on the Now Network
[Sprint LG G2] wcr84:
My cousin was in a sprint store in NC and the manager told him they got an email saying the update had been postponed until further notice due to spark bugs mms and somthing about a speaker phone bug
[Sprint LG G2] darkrival:
I hope thats not true. And they couldn't fix the bugs all this time. Why they don't they just quit and let T-Mobile take THEM over.
[Sprint LG G2] Trina9:
This is my theory on why we don't have the update. It will be interesting if the new Samsung and HTC phones come with Spark on them.
[Sprint LG G2] ksweeley:
Wow, look at this, one person on the Sprint Community forums thinks G2 owners are "harassing the reps" in regards to the constant question of when the KitKat ZVC update will come out: https://community.sprint.com/baw/thread/154871
[Sprint LG G2] corys00:
The funny thing is we don't get emails about software updates except if they fix a major security bug...
[Sprint LG G2] ksweeley:
O.O :eek: So let me guess, ZVC won't be the OTA??? I hope this isn't true, what was ZVB for if there's bugs that might impact the phone in an adverse manner still present in ZVC and if these bugs are in ZVC, why did LG release ZVC on the opensource page??? If ZVC won't come out tomorrow, that means Q1 '14 release for KitKat on the G2 is inaccurate for Sprint's G2 :(
[Sprint LG G2] Stl Dark Knight:
Horrible news. But they went from ZVB to ZVC without a source release until now. LG released both so does that mean they will be releasing another source and not ZVC code?

Is there any facts or is everything just speculation since Sprint won't say one damn word on what is going on?? Poor customer service. But they push you to their Sprint Newsroom blasting about the S5 and preordering it.
[Sprint LG G2] ksweeley:
Here's an interesting claim someone over on the Sprint Community forums made, can anyone verify that the ZVC kernel is flashable?: https://community.sprint.com/baw/message/758841#758841
[Sprint LG G2] wcr84:
The way my cousin talked the update may be months away. He was told they currently have no fix for the issues and lg is done on there end. Not looking good of this is the case
[Sprint LG G2] agentfusion:
I find this to be unlikely since the update comes through the LG update center, and our phones are internally no different from other models, for the most part, and they are all getting KitKat.

Sounds like someone is pulling your leg. I know when I was a manager with AT&T, it wasn't uncommon for us to just make crap up like that so the customer leaves us alone about it. We'd always give a date a few months away and make up some feasible sounding tech issue that way if we're right and it does take months the customer isn't mad at US and still buys from our location...And if we're wrong, they're still not mad because they got what they wanted sooner than planned.
[Sprint LG G2] p2cactus:
I don't believe this for several reasons:

1. It would be the first time a Sprint rep was right about an unannounced update. I don't care if the person is a 'manager'.

2. ZVC was posted to the LG site. They didn't post ZVB up there - it should only be releasable code.

3. I wouldn't be surprised if they had issues with spark. That seems like it could cause lots of trouble; however, see #2. No benefit for posting dead revs and not past practice.

It might be delayed, but all signs point to it coming soon.
[Sprint LG G2] thelgog:
I need help I want to take the ota but don't I need the recovery that came with the phone on stock I'm on twrp so does some one have the stock recovery? I know there's one above but its .bin some one also mentioned that just put it in the flashify backup folder and got to the restore section and just click restore stock recovery.bin but it seems shady idk why came someone help me out here what should I do
[Sprint LG G2] HeckNoTechnO:
My advice is wait be patient. The devs here will make a rooted stock version soon after the ota. I remember with an HTC device I had I took the ota and had to wait several months for root again. Just hold tight.
[Sprint LG G2] wcr84:
I wonder what time lg servers run on or however that works. Could get it tonight considering tomorrow is the end of quarter. Taking into consideration is really ready to roll

[Sprint LG G2] mtg981:
My aunt just called all freaked out cause she is on at&t with s4 and her phone updated and now her icons, like battery,etc are all white. I quickly looked it up and looks like she got the kitKat update?

---------- Post added at 09:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 PM ----------

Unless you have an extra phone to waste, like me, with insurance i'd wait for the devs to get a flashable ready.
[Sprint LG G2] Stl Dark Knight:
Yes she did receive KitKat for the S4.
[Sprint LG G2] mtg981:
Man are we freaking red headed step children or what? Lol!

Think they'd go ahead and give 4.4.3 to them.
[Sprint LG G2] Stl Dark Knight:
We are because we chose Sprint over AT&T. We all had our choices on why we chose what carrier all we do know unless it's a Galaxy model Sprint puts us at the back burner. Maybe there is a reason for this maybe not but truthfully we will never know unless they open their mouth and speak about the delays.
[Sprint LG G2] jonapunk:
My gf s4 had been updated for two or three weeks now from sprint with no issues
[Sprint LG G2] mtg981:
I chose Sprint due to my area having lte vs at&t have the h+. I really thought this lg g2 would be a priority device....I was wrong.
[Sprint LG G2] jonapunk:
That is why I don't really know the hold up on our update unless it's like a lot of people feeling that it's either WiFi calling or spark

---------- Post added at 07:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:05 PM ----------

For the time being nexus then Samsung is the best at getting updates out then it's Motorola, lg the other guys
[Sprint LG G2] Stl Dark Knight:
That exactly is the problem, no one knows what the hold up is. Why is there no damage control or a blog? They should at least be informative on what is going on. Being left in the dark is the worst scenerio. Not knowing the reasons just leads to speculation with no real facts. All the community wants is some kind or response or explanation on what the status is.

Why did LG release the kernel and the source?
[Sprint LG G2] mtg981:
I restored the stock recovery I backed up with flashify on one of my G2's. Does stock recovery just have a few lines of small white letters saying. "Boot certification" and "secure boot error" with line numbers? Tried to capture pic but couldn't get it in focus fast enough. Like I said I'm new to lg.

---------- Post added at 10:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 PM ----------

I never figured Motorola would be more popular/quicker than lg. The only Motorola I've ever had was from US cellular when cell phones were 1 in a million. Seems like pre 2000?
[Sprint LG G2] hhhstonehhh:
i heard that today in korea LG updated G2 for knock code and hide software key

i hope sprint include these features with their 4.2.2 update
[Sprint LG G2] wcr84:
Maby there engineers suck so they want xda devs to fix for them. I'd honestly be ashamed to say I was in charge of updates.
[Sprint LG G2] infirno77:
Need articles said Sprint was cutting back, sounds like a good strategy anyway. At least it'll be fixed quickly and correctly. XDA devs are awesome!

What's bad is that even the Verizon version now has an unofficial copy of there possible ota

by end of quarter one.
[Sprint LG G2] agentfusion:
Dude...you'd seriously waste $150 $100 to not wait a few days for a flashable rooted version? That's insane.
[Sprint LG G2] infirno77:
Didn't restore recovery, flash twrp back. Means it can't boot into it.

That what I was unsure of. Thanked.

Tomorrow's the day. I can feel it. Okay not really, but hey, ZVA pushed on a Monday. Food for thought...

[Sprint LG G2] mjskraju:
WOW!... so after delaying more than a month Sprint released the old update(ZVB) just on the last day of first quarter. Sprint behaved like a Verizon in updating this device with Kitkat. I remember a member on another forum saying his device got ZVB update(no he is not a developer or tester, he isn't even in US so he is no way related to Sprint), it was some time in February, I knew it was testing build so I didn't press him for a system dump. And then we have been hearing that ZVC is in the tests since more than a month through UserProfile leaks from Sprint website. And after all this delay, they end up pushing a month old build. Great Going Sprint.....:mad::mad:

[Sprint LG G2] jthein1989:
Agreed. Hey, it was finished before the end of 1st quarter. We will not see the ZVB update pushed. ZVC probably has knock-code and WiFi calling. If the Flex doesn't have it yet, we can't.

What are you guys expecting this update to provide? It's the same update the other carriers have, but just different bloat.

[Sprint LG G2] JaceAlvejetti:
I enjoy kitkat on my N7-2013, The battery difference for me even on stock was quite noticeable, add some tweaks and mods to make it at least twice as good, I can only expect the same on this beast of a phone. When it comes to bloat that why they make tools to remove it.
