I am having problems flashing any rom or backup. I was on VS980 39A did a KDZ using 11A, then root using brute force. Used AutoRec and installed TWRP. Upgraded to 2.8.6.0 and then to Blastergators 2.8.6.3 (although it says on TWRP screen 2.8.6.1). I made a backup of Verizon stock 11a with Dee's TWRP 2.8.60.

Flashed https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934554290 xdabbeb's vs98039a_bootstack.zip and then flashed xdabbeb_vs98039A_stock_fw.zip https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934539835

Stuck on the Verizon screen. Tried several times no luck.....

Tried to use backup and I get

boot certification verify

Secure Boot Error

Cause boot certification verify

Flashed 12b and then back up and got same error.

I have tried to install Validus and it will not flash properly

What am I doing wrong? I have checked all the MD5 and they match.

Thanks for any assistance.

My guess is the following: You are trying to restore a JB ROM backup while running a KK/LP bootloader (Idk how the versions are named on VS980 tbh, but I could imagine this is the issue).

Try doing a CSE (kdz) flash (if you haven't already) of the KK ROM.

A good phone for Day 1 Modding?

Planning on getting this after having great experiences with a Nexus 5.

Just wanted to know if the G2 will be as easy to mod as the Nexus 5, in terms of easy rooting/bootloader unlocking and so on. (With the Nexus 5, I remember it just being a simple command on ADB to unlock/relock the bootloader and bootloader flag)

Thanks in advance.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunandroid:
Dude, the Nexus 5 or better the Nexus devices in general are developer phones! Nowhere else it's that easy to mod. The G2 is easier than other phones, but it's not that easy. So if you are afraid to read and learn, better stay with the nexus.

I have a rooted AT&T G2 with Scott's CleanROM SE 2.0 (Android 4.2.2), Software version D80010d, Kernel 3.4.0 and ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.4.4.

I read a number of threads about upgrading from 4.4.2 to 5.02 but I was curious if there is a method to go from 4.2.2 to 5.02 without going to 4.4.2 first.

Upgrade is preferable to clean install ....

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I can access my download mode and recovery (twrp) but if i flashing custom rom, its always bootlooping,

The phone doesn't appear on device manager (windows 7), but i can access via MTP on PC

MTP can be accessed on my PC, but i can't copy anything from my PC (to my phone), so i only have 5.1.1 RessurectionRemix in my phone,

And i can't go back to stock with LG Mobile Tool 2014 (using kdz), its always says "the phone has been disconnected from PC",

I did install the drivers, and i tried uninstalling and installing other drivers for d802 too, but nothing works

And the worst part, ADB can't recognize my phone,

Hello all,

I'm on a Sprint G2 on Lollipop. I've apparently successfully rooted, but I'm not able to assign superuser permissions (click on "accept" or "deny" does not do anything and the timer runs down to 0) to any apps (e.g. SQLite Debugger). I'm unable to therefore actually take advantage of any rooted functions. Is this just a temporary issue before accessibility improves somehow by default, or do I need to take further action with the LG One Click Root app in order to gain the ability to give apps superuser permissions?

Have you superuser app installed?

First run it from app list, it works?

If not, try ioroot again.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunandroid:
That's nothing else but a lie. If you want to go into modding it's a LOT more difficult than a Nexus and there are a lot more things you need to keep in mind.

Have YOU, ever had the opportunity to mod a nexus 5? Do you try things out before you post, or do you have any other experiences in modding the G2?

I haven't tried it, and I didn't analyze it, but personally I wouldn't trust, especially if there are more than enough proofed methods for rooting our G2.

What do you want to upgrade. Do you want to go to stock 5.0.2? or to the LP version of this "CleanROM" (never heard about it)?

Try adb sideload while in TWRP. This should definitely work. Install proper ADB drivers and search this thread for "adb sideload" there should be more than one guide by me which tells you how to sideload...

Have you installed any app, that lets you dim the screen more than you could using the common settings? Do you use any other app, that lays an overlay over the screen? This might be a problem.

Are you running a SuperSU version that was made for Lollipop and are the binaries up2date?

He must do nothing at all. I guess it should be possible using the LG suite if the IMEI hasn't changed (which it hardly ever does).

If you would have read his post properly, you would have realized that he has installed a root-permissions-manager app.

Sorry, but to me it seems like you just post stuff you have read somewhere but haven't got how things on android work...
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Knife.mstr:
Sorry, my wife has a N5, my brother a OnePlusOne. I rooted both of them, installed different roms. Oneplus is the easiest, N5 not so far, but G2 is not harder to root or anything.

But this just my opinion.

Probably the developers has harder work on G2 to get working root etc, but as user it is simple after they do it.

Kitkat Or Jellybean over Lollipop with PcSuite? How?

And for rebelx you asked the same question as me:

"Are you running a SuperSU version that was made for Lollipop and are the binaries up2date?"

If the misunderstandig comes from my bad english, im sorry!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunandroid:
As long as it's just rooting I agree. As soon as you want to start playing around with ROMs, kernels, other mods, etc. it's quite a lot more difficult than the N5 Imo (bootloader, baseband, etc). The G2 definitely is way harder to work with for devs... If I'm not mistaken he asked for the LP update, but from a different country. Older versions do not work, ofc^^

Don't worry. Everything is ok. :D

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rebelx:
Yes!! I am running an app that has an overlay on the screen (it's to change brightness). I was able to get into the settings for one of my SuperSU apps (I have two) and disable that function and then I enabled "auto grant superuser permissions" so I don't even need to worry about it. (App: SuperSU free)

The second app I have is called "Superuser". This is the one that installed itself when I used the LG One Click Root app. It's also asking for updated binaries ("Please choose an installation method. Recover mode installation is recommended for HTC [I have an LG device, however] devices)." The options are to cancel and "recovery install." Picking recovery install restarts the phone, but doesn't do much else.

I am trying to run the following instructions for wifi tethering:

"Download sqlite debugger app and turn off your data and hotspot.

Open sqlite and go to browse apps.

Scroll down to settings storage.

Scroll down to tether_dun_required.

Click on value and update value. It will highlight 1 click it and change it to 0.

Click to save on upper right corner that little arrow and click commit twice i believe till it says change is made.

Turn on your data and hotspot and you are done. "

But unfortunately the device still requests that I sign up for a tethering plan.

Having installed multiple superSu apps, is never a good idea. They interfere. Best if you only use this one and uninstall the other one. Further it's not a good idea to automatically grant requests because of security purposes.

Hi all, I recently picked up the LG G2 White 32gb through AT&T. (D800)

The device is updated to the latest G2 Lollipop ROM from LG via OTA. Rooted on Lollipop, TWRP installed, etc.

So then I had my fun with the LG rom and I'm ready to get on CyanogenMod/try some other roms. I did a wipe through TWRP and tried installing CM12.1 from cyanogenmod.org, got a security error.

Read somewhere that it had something to do with the new Lollipop bootloader, so from what I hear, I need to flash back to Kitkat via LG Flash tool to flash the new Lollipop rom, correct? I'm a little confused on this subject? Or is this even unecessary now.

I recall when flashing through TWRP, it gave me a Loki security error. I rooted the device through this article: http://highonandroid.com/android-smartphones/how-to-root-lg-g-flex-2-g2-g3-on-lollipop/ and installed TWRP through DRec on the Play Store. Neither of which required me using Loki.

I am having problems flashing roms.

I will try to make this complicated story short.

I have flashed many roms on this VS980. I was on Validus ROM with B14CKB1RD kernel and blastgator TWRP. I had changed over to F2FS. Then my speaker blew out and I did a KDZ back to stock and sent phone to LG for repair. Got phone back, still broken and sent back to LG. Phone was repaired and sent back to me with 27A.

Since then I am having huge problems flashing a rom. I have been unable to root the phone using any technique other than Kingo when on 39A. I have KDZ back to 27a and used Stump. Used autorec for KK and downgraded to JB. Tried to flash Validus 5/21. I always do a clean flash (wipe Dalvik Cache, System, Data and Cache). I then wipe Dalvik and Cache between flashs and reboot into recovery before 2nd flash. I am flashing https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934554290 for 39a and then flash this romhttps://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952609493

I flash the correct GAPPS.

When I do I get the error message on the screen shot.

I go back into TWRP and I am on KK (based on using the volume keys getting into TWRP). I flash the 27a bootstrap trying to use back up file and I get the same error. Go back into TWRP I am now on JB (power button getting into TWRP). Back to KDZ and start again. I have tried other ROMS and same issue. I just do not get it. I have format the phone. Erased the internal storage. I just don't get what I am doing wrong.

I was able to get and old copy of Validus to flash using 12b, but it kept crashing stating play store error. This is a rom that I used all the time. I have used Dee's and Blastagator's TWRP 2.8.6.0 or 2.8.6.1

So I am now on Stock 24a, with root via Stump. with TWRP 2.8.6.0, with autorec and JB
