[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunandroid:
I use the kernel, that comes with CM12. And it's working great imo. But choosing a different kernel is always a question of personal taste. All those kernels are great and won't harm your device in any way. Each one has (dis)advantages over the other ones...

I have no clue about decompiling apps, but there are many decompilers. Best what you can do is clean flashing your ROM again. Then you can be sure, all stuff of this app is gone.

Custom ROMs usually disable official LG updates. If you are on stock and only rooted, just take the OTA. You just have to root again afterwards. If you have TWRP installed, don't take the OTA. It will softbrick your device.

This one is for you then: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2582142

Pretty complicated, I know, but it's the only way to get the G2 working again.

It's not that complicated. LG has a special signature for their updates (including ROM, kernel, Bootloader, etc.). Only files with the appropriate signature will be accepted by the bootloader. One dev at XDA was able to immitate such a LG signature so that the bootloader thought the file he has to load (Kernel/recovery; in this case not one made by lg but by the dev) is made by lg and booted it. Bumped means that the bumped file immitates an official LG file. That's it. The only files that need to be bumped are the recovery and the kernel, because those are the things loaded by bootloader. But since most (nearly all) ROMs bring a kernel with the ROM, you have to bump the whole package. You as user only have to worry about it if you want the KK bootloader. Most ROMs arent bumped and you have to do it on your own. Additional some ROMs have issues with the KK bootloader. That's why this bumped stuff is way more "important" for devs imho.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dosada:
I have been there but the problem is that i have no idea which ROM was on the phone, I have purchased it second hand and it was supposed to work which it obviously doesn't.

The method you recommend has a big "If you don't know what version you've installed then don't use this method because you will break your phone. " warning
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Art Vanderlay:
Mate, you're far from being the noobiest. I didn't realise you had a d802t. If you do use autorec, make sure that you flash your rom and d802 baseband before you reboot. If you reboot straight after using autorec you'll bootloop. To use the bump method, here's what I do. I havn't done this on a d802t, I've got a d802 which is only a little different. There's no reason why this would'nt for you but you've been warned, I havn't done this on that model.

1. Really important Download your kdz this way

Flash it using the back to stock guide

2. Download twrp (d802) and unpack the zip. Take the recovery img out of it

3. Dump your current boot img with the android terminal or adb shell

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot of=/sdcard/boot.img

Move the boot.img to your pc

4. Bump your boot img with the windows bump tool

5. Through an adb shell, run this command to nuke your boot partition and give you fastboot access

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot

6. Reboot to fastboot and then run these 3 commands

fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot

I am not sure to be honest. When i connect it to the computer holding volume up the display lights up and shows the LG logo for a second and goes dark again. The computer recognizes a dozen different drives. Hope that answers the question
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Art Vanderlay:
It certainly does. Your phone's hardbricked my friend. I recommend getting your money back. If you can't then try to follow this guide

You're in a mass storage mode with no rom or partition images and possibly a corrupt storage. You need to use linux to push the images back into it.

Edit: Before this try both hard reset combos.

Vol down + power then hold Vol up + vol down

Vol down + power then hold Vol down + power
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d00lz:
My mistake, turns out I AM indeed using a D802 model, not D802T. Flashing the D802T kdz still worked the other week. Downloading my D80220C_00.kdz firmware now using your method and will follow the rest of your instructions.

Once finished, does having this setup restrict me in anyway? What can and can't I upgrade?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dosada:
When i do Vol down + power then hold Vol up + vol down it flashes shortly the LG logo with secure boot error and goes dark. When i try Vol down + power then hold Vol down + power it shortly flashes the LG logo but there is no secure boot error message and goes dark. Could you fix it if i pay for it?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Art Vanderlay:
I can try to play around with it tomorrow if I have time. If your storage is corrupt i can't help you though, it requires some work with the hardware. But don't be afraid to try that guide yourself. Check out vmware as a way of installing linux. If your phone came in a box then try to download your kdz using your imei as in my previous post.

---------- Post added at 11:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:05 PM ----------

Well it's been a couple of weeks since iv'e used my g2 but aosp roms currently do not support kk bootloaders even if they're bumped. i'm a stock or g3 man so it does'nt bother me. But if you wanna go back to a jb bootloader to use them you can just autorec over it.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dosada:
No, there was no box. I have opened it and there is an IMEI on the back cover but it only has 14 digits.

The problem with the guide you recommend is that i have no idea what was done to the phone and which ROM was on it.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d00lz:
That's okay I'm the exact same, stock rom user only.

Well, this is going well so far, just flashing over the kdz file now.

What region is your phone? D80220D is the latest I get from hkg region
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d00lz:
Bought the phone off Kogan, so not quite sure. The model number is D802 and the website you linked me to said my IMEI linked to the D80220C firmware. What tricked me was this website. I went to D802T and saw Australia and assumed that was me. There is so many kdz files listed it's a little confusing.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Art Vanderlay:
Yeah, I bought it off kogan too. It should be the hkg one. I'm really surprised the d802T kdz worked though. At least you know that that ROM works now
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d00lz:
Well I'm currently still trying to flash this D80220C firmware to my device..

I installed the LG drivers.

I enter download mode.

I open the LG Flash Tool and follow the prompts.

But I always get a lg connection to server failed prompt either at 0% or 2%, and my device doesn't move from 0%.

I edited my hosts file to have 127.0.0.1 csmg.lgmobile.com but that hasn't worked. Still fails. This is weird, I flashed a kdz 1 week ago doing this same method :confused:
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Art Vanderlay:
What does it say on the back of the box?

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Art Vanderlay:
Exactly like mine. Maybe flashing that d802T kdz messed something up. Flashing the wrong rom rom can cause issues like that. Well if your phone still boots normally, and if you're on kitkat you can skip this part and go straight to the recovery. Don't forget the d802 baseband. Try this again after you flashed a d802 rom.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d00lz:
This is crazy, I still can't seem to flash any KDZ onto my phone anymore.. I'll try it within a virtual machine. Luckily my original firmware hasn't even been touched so I still have KK.

Update:

My current issue: I have an Australian D802 bought off Kogan, with the D802T 20D firmware installed. Now I am no longer able to flash the proper D802 20C firmware since LG Flash Tool gets an error at 2%. (I have attached logs).

but the funny thing about all this is.. it's working perfectly. I'm starting to think all Australian LGG2's are D802T's despite what is said on the box.

Extra information: So apparently the difference between D802 and D802T is whether it supports LTE, and looking at my Kogan receipt, my D802 device is labelled as

LG G2 D802 4G LTE (32GB, BLACK). I sure am confused. :confused:

About ADB, and .sdcard...

Hello, i have a question. I completely erased my internal storage, and i used ADB to push the rom zip to .sdcard , i have an LG G2 32gb D802, and the rom was CloudyG2. It works like a charm, but i want to know if the pushed files are still in that .sdcard folder, because i don't want them to occupy space.. the zip rom was 1.25 GB... And when i look at the occupied space it says: In use: 1,25 Gb, and free 23,46 Gb.... What's taking so much space ?I went into recovery and i went to install and looked in the .sdcard folder but it was empty.... i am not even sure if the installation of the rom erased the zip files or not, and i don't see any zip files, or they are hidden.... i am not sure. Do you have any ideas ? Also, another question, is Smart Charging useful ? Does it work ? Or does it do harm to my battery ? Should i activate it or not? Thanks a lot! :)

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d00lz:
You're able to tell without querying your build.prop. When you enter recovery, are you forced to press the power button 3 times to factory reset? (JellyBean Bootloader), or are you forced to use the volume keys to select your preferred options? (KitKat Bootloader).

If you used AutoRec, you will more then likely be on the JellyBean Bootloader.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunandroid:
if you have used autorec you are most probably on JB. Otherwise usually on KK.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d00lz:
So I finally got my KDZ to flash by using a method by droidth but when I run this command I get a permission denied. Do I need to be root, I assume so.. but how do I gain root without AutoRec (which downgrades my bootloader to JB)? I thought the whole point of your guidelines were to keep my KK bootloader :confused:.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Art Vanderlay:
Sorry, yes type su first. You need to be root. When you get around to the flashing stage you have to do it from your PC

Your phone has to rooted too. Just download the stump root app

I should also mention that you need to rename the boot_bumped.IMG to boot.IMG. move this and the recovery IMG to your adb folder.

I highly recommend that you do everything through an adb shell. This is dangerous if done wrong.

Ok guys. I'm lost. I'm new to the LG device, but no stranger to rooting /flashing. I have successfully rooted this unlocked VZW LG g2 and installed super super su. But I cannot get any recovery img whatsoever and however to work. Flashify said it did, but as someone mentioned, I still keep getting the error message in the attempt to boot recovery. I showed to have successfully pushed loki master and TWRP 2.6.3.2 (I believe), one of the 2 earlier recovery img files, and even used the dd command to install, which also appears to have worked. Yet I can't get into a recovery, even the latest loki patch. I'm sorry if I missed it somewhere in this thread, but should I downgrade back to say 24A I believe it was and then try my recovery push, or even earlier. I am currently on the 27 upgrade ad of last night after I rooted then upgraded. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I've spent all weekend trying to figure this one out. Lol. I wish it was as easy as using the LG Tool to put it on here but I haven't come across anything mentioning it. Thanks again.

All the Android phones I have had had an internal sd card. So I am a bit confused. Obviously when you wipe to flash a rom you would not ordinarily wipe the internal storage.

You will lose all data from selected partitions and you will not be able to boot until you don't flash other ROM. So if you wipe internal storage you will have to flash a ROM from an external storage such as usb flash drive, PC's hdd.

If you wipe all partitions then there are 2 ways(or maybe more) to install a ROM from TWRP:

1) using a usb flash drive and a otg cable -> install a ROM stored on your flash drive

2) using adb sideload -> install a ROM stored on your pc
