Unlock VS980

I have a VS980 (Verizon G2) that I would like to use on AT&T. I put in my Straight Talk SIM (ATT Towers) and I could make and receive calls but data wasn't working. I found a forum for installing a t-mobile rom on the VS980 to unlock it for t-mobile. But haven't seen anything for at&t yet. Do any of the custom roms in development enable full AT&T functionality or any gsm network for that matter?

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
lucky for you I have them for d802 in mega already:

lghome.apk

lghome.odex

just use a root explorer like root browser and copy them into system/priv-app then change there permissions to rw-r--r--(0644) and reboot the phone, if you can't get into root browser because home is force closing and have custom recovery I can make you a flashable zip file

I have the Verizon LG G2 with KitKat. Its stock 24a however its now rooted and I have TWRP recovery installed which is version 2.7 I believe. My question is, is the bootloader now unlocked? I asked this cause I also have a Samsung Note 3 which is rooted, however, the bootloader is not unlocked but I can still install custom Roms. Is this the case with my LG G2? Thank You!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
okay I am not sure if you remember my little explanation from post #1370

but I did mention the modem, and steps vary by rom because each have their own pre-qualifications; you must also keep in mind my device and preferences differ from yours so our taste in roms and the availability we have is different

---------- Post added at 01:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:45 PM ----------

the g2 bootloader is always locked and won't be unlocked but we have workarounds to be able to flash:

a)the recovery is pre-lokied and you can flash with ease

b)devs include a loki patch and this is run when you are flashing the rom

this means you don't need to worry about wehter you loki or not because the devs already include it in there rom

when you click on the firmware upgrade start try disconnecting and reconnecting the phone while still in download mode(I know it says not to unplug but when I've had to go back to stock and I start the progress sometimes nothing happens and disconnecting/reconnecting my phone triggers the program to see it and start flashing)

by main screen setting, indeed ı meant home screen settings. when i try to click on the home screen settings, it gives a warning with a small window and take me back to home screen (now iam using nova, but in case if i made a hard factory reset, it would probably end up with a black screen). i cant share a screenshot because iam a junior member.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] westz:
I'm really gonna need your help. I was running AOKP on a version that had become quite old. This morning, I decided I could quickly flash a new AOKP. I couldn't. I did, but it ended up messing up my radio and baseband. A lot of wipes and reflashes later, I discovered my IMEI was gone and I figured it was worse than I thought. I've finally come back to my stock KDZ (D80220D). It worked, during installation I saw it mentioned my IMEI (so part of EFS is still there apparently).

Now I've come to a nasty part. I can boot, I can unlock the phone but as soon as I get into the setup menu, apps (mainly android.process.acore) keep on crashing by the second so it's really not usable. Anyhow, my friend who's really into the G2 told me I should factory reset for it to work. There is no option for me to do so. Apparently, LG have removed the options to use buttons for a factory reset (Why, for God's sake?) so that won't work. I have tried finishing the setup but when I do, it brings me back to the start. Is there any trick to nope out of this first-usage settings menu? I have full ADB control, is there anything I could do to format it that way?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
Okay let's begin with the 20d firmware, when t was introduced they changed the factory reset key combination and it is with a fully powered off device hold blouse down+power and when lg logo shows up let go and hold the volume up+down don't touch power button

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MexXxo:
Hey,

I got the original rom (Model: LG-D802 (g2_open_com)) with Android 4.4.2 Kernel 3.4.0.

Not rooted or in any way touched kernel, firmware or something.

Just the official updates via OTa or LG Software [not sure].

Apps who could start the problem: App Ops Starter (I tooked for example rights from the Life Square Log Manager - put them back but didn't solved the problem) or the go launcher I tested (deinstalled).

The Problem:

My system is nearly unusable.

Heavy System usage (with heavy battery drain)

Feels like my Snapdragon 800 is downgraded to an Pentium I.

In the developer options the CPU usage shows me that system_server uses a lot of the CPU (seems to be the problem!)

Battery Usage shows me something similiar (Android-System 58%, Display 8%, Google Play 6%, Android OS 4%)

Any ideas?

Sorry for misspelling errors...

Thanks for your help!

and, what do you think about these two rules: "New members (those with fewer than 10 posts) are not permitted to post to development-related forums." and "5 minutes between post antispam". I am a xda member for 4 years now, always searching info in developers section - and now, after years, I can not access it and I have to write some stupid posts to another threads and wait ten times five minutes, which is for me contraproductive and forcing people to mess forums with unwanted crap like this post...

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xanthrax:
well , that`s why i keep on saying ... use the question and answers thread !

all devs should have one and should encourage people to use them ... well

what make you believe that being a 4 years old users you can have different rights than a new users with the same amount of posts on xda ?

and also , after 4 years here you still didn`t get the point of XDA ... this is a development forum ... as an addition , help and support can be provided
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
I am pretty sure that that is a question which is against xda rules(whenever I need them rules I can't find them on my phone), and each rom has an awesome developer behind it which means each is aimed to be the best in their own way and please the people who are looking for that kind of rom; each one is stable in it's own way/each one has the speed needed by the dev/each is reliable for dev/each one has something that makes people want to use it; there are 5 million xda users and each has their own taste of what they need in a rom

I have to disagree with you their, I've been an xda lurker since back with the galaxy s1 days but didn't join because of personal reasons(parents wouldn't let me), I joined late summer last year (soon It will be my xda-anniversary) but I wasn't a dev and didn't have the knowledge that most devs had; it wasn't until I got my g2 that I really started interacting with the xda community and after my few months I learned that the fact that you need a minimum of ten post to be able to post at a developer forum is quite the handicap because the developer forums are for discussing all the technical stuff about the rom, actual bugs which are caused by the rom not every little penny detail(which are cluttering those forums in the first place especially since some of the new people rack up there ten post to then ask a question which has been answered hundreds of time but they aren't bothered to use the search button), and another thing is the site is called xda-developers not xda-q&a the fact that the site offers the q&a section is a privilege after all rooting your device and changing the device at many different levels(system/kernel) wasn't what the manufacturer had in mind and it's something that you do because you want to not because you have to

well I've always wanted to learn German but the older one gets the harder it is to learn yet another language; factory reset should solve it if it is related to an app in anyway and if it doesn't than I am not sure that guarantee will cover that since it's more software than hardware

but of course xanthrax beat me to the punch

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
ok well first I would like to enlighten you in the fact that the d802 will always have multiple latest firmware because the only difference is that depending on the region they just change the letter at the end, so as long as your 20b includes the kk bug fixes and knock code then you are on latest firmware for d802 but if you still want to switch 20d just use back to stock method and flash the d80220d 32gb or 16gb kdz depends on your device keep in mind you should backup anything important because this involves wiping your device clean; if you are rooted and have custom recovery you can just flash a 20d based rom from the d802 development thread
