No problem. And no. If done correctly, you'll be restoring your base bands, which have something to do with calibrating the gyroscope. Another problem with flashing the ROM from this thread out of process is that the 4.4.2 ROM has completely different partitions than 4.2. But if you can restore to 4.2 10C, then flash the ROM here, it is made to provide the new partitions of stock 4.4.2 giving your phone the updated framework to flash any KK ROM, without incident. Just don't flash any custom kernels on this stock ROM once you get things sorted, as the in-built kernel is specially designed.

Any news on xposed yet?

So I was able to downgrade back to the C 4.2.2 build, rooted, and installed TWRP. Fully wiped then flashed this ROM and I still have the white glitch screen. :crying:
[T-Mobile LG G2] bfranklin1986:
I just did the exact same thing. Still with the white screen
[T-Mobile LG G2] tinydynamite00:
I've read through most of this thread, not having to apply the bulk of it, as I rooted early on. Only ever needed to flash 10C a couple of times for soft-brick. Did you use the offline method with the R&D Tool? Did you do a factory reset before booting back to system? Or since? I don't know whether this will help, and it comes from a Developers thread. It relates to the base bands and mod kernel. You may want to take a look.

I'm afraid after this, I don't know how others have resolved the issue, if at all. Time for higher counsel. Have you tried flashing an AOSP ROM just to see whether the screen effect occurs across ROM?
[T-Mobile LG G2] mackster248:
Yeah this is becoming very frustrating. I walked into TMO yesterday with nabbing the N5 in mind, but walked out with a G2. This is making it really hard to justify me changing my mind lol. I'll keep trying though...

Thanks! I'll take a look at that. I used "Method 2" in which I had to edit the hosts file. It went smoothly. I flashed Mahdi ROM and by rotation was still borked, wouldn't work. So now I'm going to try AOSP SlimKat and see if rotation is broken too. Do I have to flash an older baseband to make these AOSP ROM's work since official G2 KitKat is broken for me? Also, no white glitch screen on the AOSP ROM's for me.
[T-Mobile LG G2] bfranklin1986:
I've tried everything I can think of to make this work. I wonder if our phones are different somehow. To fix rotation you have to flash an older modem.
[T-Mobile LG G2] NewZJ:
I'm running 2.5 beta 2 on 4.4.2 and it runs fine.
[T-Mobile LG G2] ledvedder:
Do the modules work. Specifically, G2 xposed?
[T-Mobile LG G2] NewZJ:
I don't have the premium but I was able to change the navigation buttons color within the module
[T-Mobile LG G2] ledvedder:
I like the bleed immersive mode, and it doesn't seem to work.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Nitefire77:
The rotation is gonna be borked with the 4.4.2 baseband until developers get the fix added into the kernel. I believe the stock kernel source is out and that the rotation issue will be fixed sooner or later within a couple weeks. Until then use the baseband from 4.2.2 stock
[T-Mobile LG G2] mackster248:
Thanks! I did go ahead and flashed the modem that the phone came with and now everything works fine. Bummer that I can't try this ROM out without getting the white glitch screen though.

But thanks for the helpful responses everyone! Just got this G2 two days ago so finally getting the hang of what works and what not works in terms of the flashing world regarding this device.
[T-Mobile LG G2] vipercoyote:
With this rom, how do i check for updates or prl?
[T-Mobile LG G2] Maine_Coon:
what do you mean? I use Isis just fine on this ROM. Cannot add WF credit card, but it was the same on 4.2.2.
[T-Mobile LG G2] setzer715:
Did everything successfully and running 4.4.2 rooted but I too am suffering from the gray screen when waking the device. Downgraded to 4.2.2 modem and I still suffer from gray screen. Guess I'll have to run unrooted for now. Thank you for posting this.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Maine_Coon:
absolutely no problems here.

Installed the latest TWRP w/Flashify, did not even bother to wipe System and Data, only the Dalvik cache and cache, flashed, installed Xposed beta, everything works as advertised. :D

Once again, thanks OP!:good:
[T-Mobile LG G2] dr87:
:good:

I do wish I could figure how what is causing the screen issues with some people. We all have the same variant here flashing the same thing but some have errors and some don't... interesting

The guys with screen issues, have you tried 2.7 TWRP?

I might also try making a classic updater script and not extract the system.img
[T-Mobile LG G2] setzer715:
Update, I used the ROM from THIS wright up and it worked flawlessly. Guess every devices isn't created equally.
[T-Mobile LG G2] dr87:
Just to double check you did this process and had lines, you only used that rom and the lines were gone? If so I will link to that rom instead
[T-Mobile LG G2] setzer715:
Correct, I did the complete process with the ROM you provided and I had the gray line issue when waking the device. I then redid the entire process again only replacing your ROM with the one I linked above and all is well.

Can someone else with the issue try it again with the ROM I linked and confirm it works?
[T-Mobile LG G2] tinydynamite00:
I was planning on flashing this ROM with TWRP 2.7 today. I flashed the recovery, booted back in, booted to system and back to recovery to perform a Nand. No dice. The recovery is/was jerky with the harsh haptic fb and my back up failed. Checked to see whether SELinux was functional, I passed. But when I tried to backup, the fail was a message that TWRP couldn't find inner storage. Tried to flash another ROM through 2.7, LiquidSmooth. Again, the ROM and GApps flashed, but an overall fail. Reading through the Liquid forum, I see many people ended up in fastboots like me. Charging it to the ROM. While it may not be the recovery at issue, this whole thing leaves one less than confident to plough ahead with this forum's update. As much as I'd like to, the risks outweigh the gain.

Why do my phone say 4.4.2 but it still look the same as 4.3.. No different wallpaper or icons

Is there any kit kat features that i can try on the lg g2 to be sure I have kit kat???

and why is the software update missing from the settings?
[T-Mobile LG G2] vipercoyote:
Mine is not showing using this rom

---------- Post added at 11:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:39 AM ----------

My update center is not showing using this rom???? Should I flash tthis again?
[T-Mobile LG G2] setzer715:
Don't know what to tell you. It's strange it is not there but if your on a custom rooted phone, why do you care?

I would try to reflash it. Make sure to wipe System, Data, Cache, Dalvik-Cache
[T-Mobile LG G2] vipercoyote:
Wipe system will delete everything won it?

And will I keep my root?

Also i care because if it is not showing maybe I dont have all of kit kat features?????? My phone does says 4.4.2

And what is the popular rom for lg g2 users tmobile?
[T-Mobile LG G2] bfranklin1986:
It says flashing that replaces twrp with stock recovery, meaning you'd have to use the LG tool to go back to stock if you wanted to flash anything else I'm thinking.

Have you used this instead of the one in the op? I already have this one downloaded and dont want to download and wait another hour for the one posted in first page.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Soured Lie:
Flashed from C as well... white lines.

---------- Post added at 07:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:19 PM ----------

I was going to say... how is this beneficial? The whole idea is to have a working recovery.
[T-Mobile LG G2] dr87:
I'm going to try to make a working updater script so I can extract the rom to flash that way. Hopefully it will solve white lines I'm not sure. I want to do this also because I made a maximum debloated stock rom that pretty doesn't have many more apps than aosp but has all LG features intact :good:
[T-Mobile LG G2] bfranklin1986:
I finally just said screw it and flashed the rooted 4.4.2 and gave up my recovery for now. Probably what I would've ended up running anyway, and the LG tool was pretty easy to flash back with.

No white lines so it must have something to do with bypassing the recovery check.
[T-Mobile LG G2] vipercoyote:
Im thinking you can reflash using freegee to get twrp again right?

---------- Post added at 09:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:58 PM ----------

No, to have root and kitkat, at least for me.i dont flash roms on my lg g2

---------- Post added at 10:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:59 PM ----------

Hold on which one this one or the other.. Have you tried to use the app freegee to get recovery again?
[T-Mobile LG G2] bfranklin1986:
LG added something that checks the recovery at boot, if it's not stock recovery, phone won't boot.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Soured Lie:
Digression:

I wish somebody would theme the LG rom to get rid of all the white. Make it look more like cloudyflex. I can't wait until flex roms come to 4.4.
[T-Mobile LG G2] dr87:
yea if that is just a rom with 4.4.2 partitions its useless
[T-Mobile LG G2] dr87:
my updater script for kitkat is almost complete, I had to manually go through the stock rom with a file browser and figure out all the symlinks added in 4.4 and add them to the updater script (new modem symlinks, firmware, audio, etc)

figured mostly all the files that need special permissions for set metadata

Sleep time now but the next hour or two working on this will finally be able to have a working updaterscript so we can put out custom kitkat roms. I already have one ready (debloated near aosp levels but with all working LG features) Hopefully this will fix white line issues for people also
[T-Mobile LG G2] mackster248:
Really appreciate the work you're doing. Hopefully I'll be able to try out this KK ROM without having the white line issue.
[T-Mobile LG G2] dr87:
can someone try this out and let me know if the lines are still there

It's just my debloated rom but it uses an updater script with a slightly fixed up kernel
[T-Mobile LG G2] jimmydee62:
Do I need to go back to 10C version before I do this? I had 10G on my phone and flashed through philz but had same problem white with black lines on return from sleep mode.

Cincinnati Bell

Does anyone know if this ROM will work with a Cincinnati Bell D801?
[T-Mobile LG G2] setzer715:
It's beneficial for those of us who don't want to flash new ROMs everyday on our G2s. I don't mind losing TWRP for now. I'm running 4.4.2 rooted with ZERO issues. Yes, it's stock recovery, but again, not flashing this phone daily, I have my Nexus 5 for that.

Don't get me wrong, I would love to have a custom recovery. It's just not necessary right now unless something amazing upgrade comes out that we all MUST have.

---------- Post added at 06:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:53 AM ----------

If they are selling the D801 do they utilize T-Mobile's network? If so, then it should be the same phone.

---------- Post added at 06:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:55 AM ----------

I can give it a go tomorrow, don't have time tonight to go through the downgrade process.

---------- Post added at 07:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:59 AM ----------

Correct, the first time you try to boot it locks up but if you long press power as if your were going to force shutdown until it powers off the bootloader reloads stock recovery and the phone boots. Samsung phones do the same thing.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Soured Lie:
The point of this thread is to have recovery. So no this isn't beneficial to anybody looking to have 4.4 running with a recovery. If you want rooted 4.4 without recovery, there is another thread with this rom already where it would be useful to those looking for that sort of solution. That's great that the solution works for you because you personally don't care or whatever, but...

The link to the rom doesn't resolve what people came here looking for and is non sequitur to the OP and intent of this thread.
[T-Mobile LG G2] setzer715:
Other than being an ass to others for TRYING to help, what have you done? Quit flooding this thread with your BS please.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Soured Lie:
Don't get all personal and emotional. If you want to try and be pedantic about it, I'm just showing you the correct logic. I have tried the rom and put in my feedback into the consensus that there are more than a few people who experience issues regardless of what partitioning scheme they use.

Also I was about to flash the rom from the link provided until I investigated and saw that it removes custom recovery which is what I came here for. I gave feedback concerning this issue for people who might not be interested in something without custom recovery so that they aren't surprised and get stuck, as currently the return to stock method isn't the most stable method and is confusing for some people.

If you don't consider that to be helpful or somehow view that as being an asshole or whatever, I don't know what to tell you. It was purely informational in merit.

I didn't flame you. I didn't do anything wrong. Just being a straight shooter so as to remove confusion. If you want to remain ignorant, be my guest. I could care less.
[T-Mobile LG G2] setzer715:
Sorry boss, still have the gray lines.

EDIT: I'd prefer to not downgrade my phone using the LG Tool everytime so I have left my phone on the current ROM and switched to my Nexus 5 for my daily. Please let me know when you have another ROM to test I will gladly flash it.
[T-Mobile LG G2] theking_13:
I can send MMS but not download it, anyone have an idea why or having the same problem? I've manually added the APNs, tried 8SMS and Textra, and still nothing.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Nitefire77:
If you flash the rom in this thread you wont lose custom recovery
[T-Mobile LG G2] Soured Lie:
We are talking about another ROM that somebody linked as an alternative to the OP a few pages back. If you flash it, you lose recovery.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Nitefire77:
Oh ok my bad I missed that. I really want to try stock 4.4 by don't want a flashback to a different bootloader and go through the trouble of doing it I'm hoping one day it will be fixed or I can just flash it normally. We have a lot of talanted developers on the forums and I know one day the problem will be solved, but until then I want to have my freedom of flashing whatever I feel like trying without having to worry about switching back and forth between basebands and bootloaders. I don't mind the stock rom, I like the color scheme and theme LG used, and its a vast improvement over touchwiz, but I don't want to be 2 versions behind the latest android either lol. I check the post everyday for breakthroughs in flashing this but until then i'll stick with carbon. Its been very stable for me, its quick and has almost all the features I like. I really want to give omni a try but its lack of theme engine for our device is a deal breaker:(
[T-Mobile LG G2] Soured Lie:
,Flash some AOSP roms. Or make a nandroid and back it to your computer. If you have issues, just revert back and restore after rooting. It will only take you once to find out, and it's going to either be beneficial, or you will just have to use what you have been using. There is so much stuff to play with, I don't think you will miss LGs 4.4 rom.

I personally run cloudyflex rom. I really like the features that come with LGs stock roms more so than all the AOSP stuff. It's 4.2, but it's a really really good rom. I wish I could benefit from using this 4.4 with recovery, but I get the white lines issue. I have a conjecture that the issue comes from newer phones that never saw C, and came from the factory running G.

We'll get there. There isn't really a good reason to jump on the latest firmware wagon anyways. Use what's stable. The only thing that you would miss out on is the new camera hacks. Just my opinion.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Nitefire77:
I am running an aosp rom. I'm on the latest carbon nightly and update daily. Just saying i'd love to give the new stock version a try to test the waters. Every phone I get I usually flash an aosp rom right away. On my last phone (Galaxy S3) I got rid of touchwiz on day one and never went back. Some stock roms are fairly nice though and Touchwiz is the only one I truely loathe. Htc does a nice one, I like Sony's too. This is my 1st LG smartphone and I didn't mind the stock 4.2 and how lg did their interface. This is the 1st phone I've had that's had a locked bootloader though. Really a shame since tmobile usually leaves them open, but I guess LG really doesn't want people to get rid of their software. I believe locked bootloaders should be illegal though ... its wrong to charge people 600+ for a device than restrict what you are and not allowed to due to @ device you paid for and own ...
[T-Mobile LG G2] Soured Lie:
I really don't understand how samsung is so popular with TW on their devices. It really does suck. It's horribly ugly, slow, and heavy. I don't understand the mass appeal besides the hardware.

I don't want to derail OPs thread, but I agree locked bootloaders suck. I'm pretty impressed with LG. I guess if there was any device to have a locked bootloader on, this is the one lol.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Nitefire77:
I agree, touchwiz is by far the worst, and out of every manufacturer samsung had the most crapware preinstalled that i'm sure most people don't even use, and the worst part is they run themselves when never even opened once.

The amount of work by the OP to make this rom work is truely appreciated and I can't wait to give it a shot when its all done. I'm a huge fan of all the other work he has done for our device too. I absolutely love my G2, and am glad I decided on this phone. So far there are no other flagships that I've seen so far that I would consider except for the New HTC One, but I don't think i'll be giving up this phone for a long time. I hope the G3 comes with an unlockable bootloader, i'm more interested in it now that I've gotten to love this LG

Not able to restore backups from 4.2.2 but that doesn't surprise, just bummed slightly. Comments on that anybody?

It just seems random which pictures come through if any at all, decided it wasn't worth the trouble and switched away from the stock messenger.
[T-Mobile LG G2] theking_13:
Hmm, I dont know what I'm doing wrong then. I downloaded the same app, and cannot receive any MMS.

You would have to KDZ back to 4.2.2, root that and install TWRP. Then install the ROM with SU.

No, that won't work.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Nitefire77:
I've tried everything i could think.of to solve the white lines. Dirty flashed over stock 4.2 didn't work. Tried fresh install and restore of data from 4.2.2 with clean 4.4.2 system partition that didn't work. Tried with dr87's kernel and still got lines after screen lock.

[T-Mobile LG G2] jimmydee62:
Your not the only one I've tried everything just like you and nothing works either. I'm just wondering if something from the LG G2 stock 4.4.2 rom has put something on the phone that causes this and no matter what we have tried up to this point won't get rid of it. I'm wondering is there anyway to completely clear everything off the phone so there is nothing left from original rom and then do the KDZ 10C. Can anyone tell me if my idea is feasible and if so how would I do this?
[T-Mobile LG G2] Nitefire77:
I don't think it has anything to do with the boot loader like originally thought. I know of white lines issues coming up for people with the c and g bootloader, and others with the c and g boot loader where it is working no problem. Its not just the d801 either I know some d800 users are having the same problem.

In the international g2 forums 2 different KitKat LG ROMs are ported for our phones. Cloudy stock, ported from the d802 KitKat update, and cloudy Pro, a ROM port from the G pro 2. A member who has a d800 and who's wife also has the same phone, same boot loader. The KitKat ROMs load fine on his phone, but on his wife's phone the white lines show up. He's tried cloudy stock, cloudy pro and it causes the issues. I've tried all the KitKat varieties and same thing. I just will not flash the official and lose my recovery ability and as far as I know that's the only one that won't cause white lines. ATM I'm running a port of the flex ROM. Still 4.2.2 ATM.

However the 4.4.2 update started rolling out in Korea for the G flex, so I'm crossing my fingers it will work without issue once its ported to our devices. I hope it does cause I love the Dark LG theme on it way better then the white
