[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agentfusion:
Okay, here's my total noob question:

Can you flash a rom for another LG G2 on any model? Like, can I flash a D802 rom on LS980? ObvIously I'd need to restore cdma apns and flash a radio for my device, but could I, in theory, flash a rom meant for another device and then do something like port the Mahdi rom patch to flash all of the necessary bits for my phone? I'm noticing the LS980 is getting pretty much no love when it comes to roms, and it's driving me nuts.

When I do find a decent rom, it's got too many bugs to be usable if it's not based on stock. Like slimkat... no volume control in calls and a really bad echo. Aokp freezes up like ALL the time. Mahdi is alright but I get micro stutter in literally everything that I do...

I love this phone, but I really want to use a rom that works instead of flashing a stock based rom with crappy battery life and modding the crap out of it with xposed. I'm literally posting from an AT&T galaxy s3 on Wi-Fi right now because I am so disappointed in the rom selection for what is literally the best phone I've ever had all because my carrier gets no dev love.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spinninbsod:
No you cannot flash Roms from other carriers they have different hardware variations and it will be difficult to flash back to stock because it will think your phone is a d802 and won't let you flash the proper firmware so do not do that it could hard brick /super softbrick

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brainbeatuk:
That is the latest rom if you are on o2. I think three have started getting kitkat update ota. You can root from firmware you are on then manually update to kitkat or wait for ota

My question is for ROMing. If I'm rooted and interested in a ROM, do I just have to go into recovery mode (power+vol down), erase everything, then use the install option with the ROM? Is there anywhere that has full step by step instructions? Thanks.

You have videos on Youtube, and various guides on the internet. Just search for "lg g2 flash a rom", and you should end up with something useful. Btw, you mentioned going into recovery mode, but you didn't mention having a custom recovery. Just to make sure - I'll point out that you need a custom recovery first. If you already took care of that - then disregard what I've said.

If you're still having trouble after looking at those guides, come back here and ask me - I'll be glad to help. :)

Wallpaper resizing

Hi Guys,

I've looked to see if anyone posted on this issue in Google or in XDA, surprisingly no one had. Maybe the description is different...

Here is what happens: when i exit an app, like Dolphin browser, the wallpaper (stock LG's and ones that I've downloaded) does a funny re size- like zooming in. This problem persists when I upgraded to KitKat. However it doesn't happen with a live wallpaper.

Best,

Noam

I had similar problem when wifi storage just stopped working. Im on win 7. What i did is to remove homegroup if u have it and/or check advanced sharing setting - try different enable/disable scenarios - for me it was "turn of password protected sharing" - did the job. Ofc telling you from stock perspective (4.2.2 and 4.4.2) dunno about aosp based roms.

What modem should I flash before using that ROM? and what is the easiest way to install TWRP recovery for D802?

Thank you.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
If you are already on stock kit Kat you don't need to flash a modem for that Rom and you can use autorec to install twrp
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pantera82:
I have a question. I'm rooted on 4.2.2 with twrp recovery. Instead of flashing the kdz file can I use the lg support tool and use the options to reinstall stock recovery? Will that mess up my phone? I tried to load the kdz file but when I hit upgrade start it opens the support tool and says an upgrade is available. I just don't want to brick my phone. Thanks in advance
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hellhug:
Not sure but i personaly want do that. Are u using this method - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2432476? What model u have? Method 2 worked for me fine (d802 international). Key words are "offline" - otherwise its go with checking/downloading latest firmware for your model. Maybe try with removing all drivers u installed and use files from that thread.

Btw guys does full wiping remove baseband - or i have to flash it again even if switching between stock kitkat rom versions. Not 100% sure does it remove or not...Would be nice someone to confirm it to me.:) ty!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
No full wiping does not delete the baseband and the only time it is required to flash is when switching from stock kk to jb or the other way around and I'm pretty sure that you also got to flash the jb baseband when going from stock kk to aosp
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuroifi:
My phone has stock JB that came installed with the phone, I only have rooted the device, so I assume I need to flash modem for KK rom, but what modem and where to find the right one? can I use autorec on JB to install twrp?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
Ok for recovery you can try freegee from the play store but sometimes people have trouble with it so I recommend this twrp install guide and once you have that you should flash this d802 flashable kk so that you can have the needed baseband since I can't find the kk baseband separately

Cant get to boot in TWRP or clockwork

Hello, i hope im at the right place because im so stuck with my phone. I installed cyanogenmod, i had it for a few months on my lg g2 and i thought to myself i wanted stock LG ROM back i did flash it and it seemed to work just fine untill one day..

I can make it boot in the "stock" recovery mode the one you need to go to root the device and yes my device is rooted but i cant install any roms since i cant get further.

Please help me, im afraid my phone will be unusable
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunandroid:
If you KDZ properly your phone definitely isn't rooted anymore. Where or what says you it's still rooted. You have to go back to stock with tot. No other way to get back to real stock.

"to reboot" --> into twrp or normal system boot. Try to get into the twrp (press vol- & power until lg logo appears, release the keys and immediately press them again and go through the "erease" process. if you have installed the recovery properly, you'll loose no data) and install the heat protected twrp (2nd post of this thread) first. You can also try to fix permissions (in recovery), it's worth a try. ;)

Are you on stock KK? rooted or not doesn't matter for installing a recovery. If yes, use autorec (2nd post of this thread). You'll have to downgrade your bootloader first.

I think he meant post on the back to stock thread. But failing at 2% usually means it's the wrong kdz. There's another way. If you can find a flashable zip of the firmware you're trying to flash, with all partitions included it's almost the same thing.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamterence:
Hey everyone. I'm a new Sprint G2 user, recently upgrading from the LG Optimus G. First thing I did was root the phone (using towelroot and autorec), and got a custom ROM on it. I went straight to PA, as that's always been a stable ROM for me on the OG. Then I ran into the dreaded white lines issues. I've been doing some readings on the forums, and seen everything about the G2 panel fix (which did nothing), the LKF apk (also did nothing), flashed one of the stock kk kernels, and got a security error on boot. (For what its worth, I was on an AOSP ROM). I'm desperately trying to fix this issue, as its blowing my mind right now. I had a full, beautiful screen, and then suddenly I just had white lines on the rightmost of the screen. I flashed PA, the phone rebooted as normal, and then the backlight came on, but the screen stayed black, which I've read indicates that my screen is LGIT (despite what Panel says). Am I permanently screwed? Or am I missing something. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

You did it then! congrats! ;) Perform a fullwipe (with the buttoncombo for recovery) and everything should work.
