Hi Envy, I and many others would recommend any of CloudyFa's ROMs, this includes:

CloudyStock 2.7 - A Stock KitKat experience with extra features.

CloudyFlex 2.8 - A LG G Flex experience with extra features.

CloudyG2 2.2 - A LG G3 experience with extra features.

I urge you to check out each of the linked threads and make a decision :). All of these ROMs give you great performance and battery life as they include CloudyFa's own CloudyKernel. If you really want to tweak your performance and battery settings, you may consider downloading and flashing Dorimanx's Kernel and choose your Kernel Profile accordingly (Extreme_Battery, Battery, Default, Performance, Extreme_Performance).

Hello xda.

Im currently on stock kitkat (d802).

I wanna flash cm12, or some other aosp rom.

I found CM12 for lg g2 but from what I have seen, there are still things that do not work.

Also, I have found the Resurrectionremix rom, and it seems like a cool rom.

What I wanna ask is:

First, are cm12/aosp roms much smoother than stock kitkat?

Second, is there a lollipop cm/aosp rom that I can use as a daily driver?

I am a big fan of cm, and I use my phone for work and thats why I need a rom with not so many bugs.

Could you give me advice what to test?

Thanks!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunandroid:
Imho SlimLP is the smoothes LP ROM out there. But it has a lot of bugs. You can use CM as daily driver. There are issues you should be aware of: Calls with a bluetooth headset do not work most of the time. VoIP doesn't work either. But that's the samething on most lollipop ROMs.

If you have root access then you still can fix the issue(even if you don't, there also should be a way to fix), but I don't know how, sorry.

EDIT: You could try AutoRec to install TWRP custom recovery and I think this tool will also fix the download mode.

Be sure you download AutoRec app for your G2 model!!!

Enable developer tools from settings->about phone-> and tap multiple times on build number, and it should unlock the developers tools. Then enable usb debugging, connect your phone to PC.

Now download the apk from on your PC, install adb globally (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=48915118#post48915118), then go where you downloaded the APK and shift+right click and select "Open command window here", connect your phone to PC via usb cable and type in cmd: "adb devices". You should see your device in that list(keep an eye on your phone, it may require to approve the adb connection).

Have you tried hard reset?(this will erase all data from your phone)

If you can't reach the reset menu do this at step 4: press and hold power and volume down until you see the LG logo then release and press and hold the volume up and volume down buttons until reset screen appears.

Maybe after hard reset apps will stop crashing.

And one question.. do you have xposed framework installed? If yes, use the uninstall option to delete it, and just after you can do the hard reset.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nakkivene:
Tried that already...

No.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raulx222:
Oh...

But you still have root access, right?

You need somehow to install AutoRec, running this app will also flash some partitions(including the partition where is stored the download mode) and you will be able to access the download mode.

OR

At least if you could install an app to have access to your root folder to manually move a partition file to fix download mode. But you also need to download/transfer the partition file on your phones internal storage to can use it.

Hmm..do you have a usb stick and a OTG cable?..you could connect a usb stick to your phone and install apps from it.

VS980 stuck in TWRP, no download or fastboot modes

Hi, I just started playing around with rooting and flashing about a month ago. I originally got into it because my phone had the knock on stop working so I rooted to install the HiddenMenu.apk to upgrade the touch screen firmware. Eventually I bricked the phone and got it stuck in Fastboot mode about 2 weeks ago. I re-flashed all the img files(boot, laf, etc.) and eventually got download mode back. From there I was able to do a CSE flash to go back to a stock kdz.

The issue I am having now is I dumbly tried to do an ota update while rooted. I got stuck in TWRP and tried to do the known fixes for that:

(go into the TWRP terminal and do this:

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

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

It didn't work. Then I tried recovering from backups, wiping and re-flashing roms, nothing worked. I then tried to follow my footsteps from my previous bricking experience and wiped everything off my phone to attempt to get into fastboot. Only this time, fastboot doesn't come up when holding vol+ and plugging in the USB. The LG symbol appears and then I go back into TWRP. My PC won't recognize the phone anymore, so sideloading doesn't work either. Can anyone tell me how to get into fastboot so I can reload the img files and get back to stock? Any help is appreciated.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunandroid:
In TWRP terminal, you usually only do this:

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

Try downloading Build.Prop Editor from the PlayStore and search for "ro.build.target_country". Change the value to your Countries Region, for example I live in Australia so I would set ro.build.target_country=AU, If I lived in America I would set ro.build.target_country=US. After editing your build.prop accordingly, reboot your phone and check your Network Mode for the LTE option.

I know that in CloudyG2, to get LTE as an option in Network Mode its recommended to delete Lteconfig.apk in /system/app/ and restart your device.

Unofficial CM12 on my vs980 that requires the 12b bootstack

Can I flash a 27a radio that doesn't effect the bootstack?

I was coming from CM11, so everything was 12B. Flashed this ROM here:

http://xdaforums.com/verizon-g2/development/rom-unofficial-cyanogenmod-feb-20-t3036814

It works beautifully, but I was just curious if I will cause bootloops by trying to flash a newer radio. Does the radio always need to be the same as the bootstack?

Also, could I flash any other kernels?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunandroid:
Do a backup and try it out. The baseband basically doesn't affect the bootstack and it doesn't either the other way round... But: The kernel is based on JB sources. So that might be the problem. Some say, the KK Baseband is working fine with the JB Based ROMs and for others it doesn't.

You can do a nandroid backup and try it out. If it doesn't bootloop or the rotation doesn't work after the baseband change, everything is ok.

Hi [MENTION=6240046]Soufiansky[/MENTION] and congratulations on your choice. I have this phone (LG D802) for more than 15 months and I always used it semi-heavily. I have used stock ROM, Stock Based Roms, and recently (2 Days ago) migrated to a Lollipop AOSP based ROM (Couldn't wait anymore for official Lollipop :) ) with about 130 apps installed.

1. No Battery drain so far. I'm surprised by its battery capacity and length. Of course you need to be careful on apps you install (which is important on every phone).

2. Some apps use a lot of CPU and gpu power (mostly games like Clash of Clans). That makes phone hot. but its not just about G2, but any phone if u use such an app alot. i personally play CoC alot but except heat, no other problem raised.

3. Phone temperature affects CPU Frequency, thus a hot phone will be slower than a normal one. Again a usual scenario on every smartphone.

4. So far my battery is still in good shape and i didnt notice any reduce on its capacity.

This phone is great, even better than G3 in my opinion. I'm still glad i bought it. :)

All these combination keys work when device is compeletly off

Factory Hard Reset Mode: Hold [Vol-] and [Power] button at the same time, when LG logo came, release and hold them again. This mode is used for Hard Reset Factory after stock Firmware install or Upgrade

Hi. LG has not yet released Official Lollipop Rom for LG G2 (only for korean f320 version, but no D80X yet). So you have 2 options:

1. Wait. It should be released soon, like in a month or so. (You can check when the rom become available and download it by regularly checking this website)

But, this is my first android smartphone and all this information is overwhelming. What are some ROMS (?) that look like vanilla AndroidL the most? Also what about updating a ROM, how do you do that? Do the creators release the updates on the net and you install them over the existing OS?

What's hideous about it? The icons? The widgets? launcher, notification panel?

All this stuff and a lot more can be changed through theming, xposed, custom launchers etc. The aesthetics of a ROM can be changed, but if you pick ROMs based on how they look you'll be constantly disappointed where it counts.

You have to enter your IMEI on the website I posted. So I have no clue. It doesn't matter, what you are running.

I'd reflash everything because it seems like your system is somehow corrupted. So download a kdz and flash it to make sure, your system is set up properly again.

If you have installed cloudy G3, you have most probably a custom recovery. So download SuperSU from playstore, open it and let it install it's binaries through the recovery. Should work this way. But are you sure the G3 ROM doesn't come pre-rooted? Have a look at the developer setting before you install SuperSU. ;)
