only Lte

Does anyone know how to force only lte mod on this stock 4.4 rom? My area has lte so i want to disable 3g/2g.
[Sprint LG G2] jcwxguy:
so far no one has found a way
[Sprint LG G2] UCLA1:
No more LG for me

I gave LG a chance. First with the Sprint LG Optimus G and now with this LG2 phone. While I love their design and specs I absolutely hate how difficult they make it for devs with this Loki BS. I know everyone hates Samsung but it just seems a lot easier to root and install custom recoveries on their phones. I am not trying to hate on LG phones just how they lock them down and I appreciate all the hard work devs do to help out the community but it should not be this complicated for them as a result of LG's loki crap. Peace.
[Sprint LG G2] bishaarcc:
Don't get angry sir, LG doesn't have huge customers like Samsung and that's why we have less roms.
[Sprint LG G2] souleman:
Good luck dealing with Knox on Samsung.
[Sprint LG G2] phatmanxxl:
That's what I was thinking while reading that lol, the grass ain't much greener in the Samsung camp, you want tons of ROMs get a Nexus.
[Sprint LG G2] leroybrute:
I have dealt with the s4 and Note 3 and safe strap. And the ROM situation with the Note 3. Before Knox Samsung was using Loki. Anyone knocking the ability to root, recovery and ROM of the Lg G2 compared to Samsung don't own a Note 3, let alone have a clue.

PS. I am a Samsung fanboy so I knock Samsung with respect.
[Sprint LG G2] daddymikey1975:
Followed instructions exactly. Worked like a charm. :)

Allowed everything to update and settle. Restarted the phone. Got a FC. From gapps. Then LG services popped up wanting me to accept the user agreement. I accepted it and everything seems ok.
[Sprint LG G2] bishaarcc:
Did you flash recovery? if yes please tell me how you did it. I read the instructions on 2nd post but I quite didn't understand.
[Sprint LG G2] daddymikey1975:
I did not venture down that road yet.
[Sprint LG G2] scottdanpor:
afaik, For the second post, you enter that string in terminal emulator and that reverts the kernel so TWRP will boot and you can do whatever. Then you must flash the ZVC radio before restarting in order to boot back to system. To enter TWRP from then on you have to repeat entering this string in terminal emulator, otherwise when you boot to recovery it just displays a failure error. It's very time consuming, they're working on a better way as we speak.
[Sprint LG G2] agentfusion:
See kids, this is why we follow instructions.

I missed the step of flashing TWRP in flashify FIRST before using dd on the aboot image posted. This WILL result in an unrecoverable hard brick and if you don't have insurance, prepare to pay $80 at a repair center and wait a few days for a new phone.

Just a heads up. Everyone who worked hard on this process deserves the respect of us reading every single word of their posts. I rushed it and didn't, now I'm paying the price. Don't make the same mistake I did. This fix wasn't rushed to us and was carefully built by people who take the risks for us first and tell us how to NOT screw it up, so PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE do not rush. Do not skip a step even if you think you can.

I had asked if I could skip to the part I did and was told I could because of a misunderstanding on my part. When I asked if I could do it from the OTA, I meant straight OTA not the OTA zip in the OP. So when asking questions, also make sure you're extremely clear about what you mean!
[Sprint LG G2] scottdanpor:
Sorry to hear that :( Even people with lots of flashing experience can make a simple mistake or misunderstand something.

Would be even worse for me, there's no Sprint service centers in Canada!
[Sprint LG G2] MeestaAytch:
So you're saying theres a possibility to market it... start a franchise! It'll be fine. They'll get the same reception americans do =). Nothing will be different.
[Sprint LG G2] zebrapositions:
Can't flash cause my device is 'g2'????

Can't copy log error cause log is HUGE but its something like "this package is for 'g2' device is 'g2'". Won't flash... Disabled everything I could that could appear not "bloat stock". Reflashed ZVA updates to see if they error'd or helped reset. Tried ZVC again and again and again. Same error, over and over.
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
Which recovery are you trying to flash this in and are you using the OTA zip on OP or stock OTA zip?

Thanks!
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
Thanks for sending me those instructions before and while I'm glad this isn't a new issue it's unfortunate this happened.

Hopefully Sprint will let you call it a problem with OTA, swap phones and move on.

However... I am seeing a lot more people trying to use Step 2 with the stock OTA zip.

So I've updated the instructions in post 2 again to more carefully explain that TWRP needs to be in recovery before even thinking about using the revert/restore method.

About alternatives in progress... I know of one solution that's in testing but I have reservations about advertising that option. (autoboot)

You guys are welcome to link to it as being done already but let's not spam the thread with it.

My personal preference is something that doesn't require yet another zip because any additional step is another possible point for failure.

(KISS method is still the best in my book.)

So I still think us finding a working radio solution is still the ideal - something that keeps ZVC radio but doesn't break Loki or download mode in doing so. We have a rough idea in place, still need permission to include the kernel. Working on that.
[Sprint LG G2] zebrapositions:
'Reset' by flashing:

testupdate.zip

testupdate2.zip

(ZVA similar zip as yours from another XDA page)

Attached image shows build, etc.

TWRP Touch v2.6.3.2
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
Those 2 zips are for updating from ZV8 to ZVA.

Since you're already on ZVA you don't need to flash those.

Next one you need is the one in first post in this thread.

(Just please make sure to read the first post before proceeding...)

Thanks and good luck!
[Sprint LG G2] zebrapositions:
The error I am getting is from your zip in the first post. I'm sorry if that was not clear. I used the ZVA after to try and "reset". Just explaining... I've tried everything I could so far. My device says its 'g2' but somehow this is wrong?

To clarify further, I am trying to flash ZVAtoZVCTest7.zip

Original post:
[Sprint LG G2] agentfusion:
I spent most of the day at service centers yesterday trying to get it fixed. Told them it happened during the OTA itself. Since they couldn't fix it, it's $80 to swap it, but will take two days because they have to order me a new one. Since I used to work for a big carrier, i knew what to say to the phone rep to get them to add the insurance for me after my first 30 days (i bought my phone 35 days ago), so they're calling it OTA failure and waiving the $80 fee. I got damned lucky.
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
What TWRP version are you using?

I used 2.6.3.3 for Sprint G2 for testing.
[Sprint LG G2] bishaarcc:
TWRP recovery

Friends, I flowed the instructions on the first post and now I'm on rooted Stock 4.4 but no recovery.

So I want to make sure that I understand the second post before I go ahead and do it.....

1- I'm gonna download these two files: http://www.rwilco12.com/Files/Garwyn.../ZV8_aboot.img and http://www.rwilco12.com/Files/Garwyn...Radio_Full.zip I'll but them in my SD Card not inside another folder.

2- I'm gonna open one of these apps ADB shell or terminal and and type:

Su inter

dd if=/sdcard/Download/ZV8_aboot.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot Inter

Reboat in recovery and install the Radio full zip that you downloaded earlier....

Please am I on the right path? Sorry for the crazy questions but I just want to make sure that I understand the whole thing before I break my phone... Thanks guys for your none stop efforts.
[Sprint LG G2] scottdanpor:
Yes, and flashing the second file means you break recovery again, so you must repeat this every time you want to use TWRP. Flash the zvc radio when you are done using TWRP so you can boot into Kitkat again. Make sure the files go to your download folder.
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
If you used the zip in first post you can skip the rest of this.

.

.

.

...otherwise, please make sure you grab TWRP and flash into recovery using Flashify before downgrading aboot and booting to recovery.
[Sprint LG G2] SkdnSn:
Everything in OP worked exactly how it should've for me!

Was able to successfully boot to rooted 4.4.2 from TWRP, ran that for a day, then decided to go back to AOSP. Followed the recovery steps how they were stated and booted into TWRP again with no problems.

Thank you for all of your hard work [MENTION=4194834]garwynn[/MENTION]! Love what these awesome developers have been able to do with our phone as fast as they do:D:good:
[Sprint LG G2] DREWHAMM974:
Okay, quick question, I'm sorry if its a stupid one but I am so used to Nexus devices. Since in the OP it says it breaks Loki and what I'm understanding is Loki works like an unlocked bootloader if I was to flash the OTA from the OP would i still be able to flash custom kernels or would I just be stuck with stock kernel? Also could i go back to ZVA after if I so choose?
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
If you're wanting to change just the kernel it's possible.

But both ways I know would require further work after OTA.

Reverting to ZVA is possible. Easiest way though will probably ZV8 TOT and ZVA OTA.

Thankfully LG doesn't seem to care if you want to use an earlier version.
[Sprint LG G2] DREWHAMM974:
Basically what I'm wanting to know is what functions are broken after using this? What will I not be able to do since it breaks Loki?
[Sprint LG G2] majedalanni:
Questio, I've used ZV7 TOT and then upgraded it to ZVC, then I rooted it with ioroot and downloaded the camera hack apk. Everything works good. Cell signal still not good and it uses more battery. Also today I've tried to run voice mate but it FC, did anyone face FC with voice mate

[Sprint LG G2] mtcellph:
I took the OTA update and now I am on the stock ZVC rom, I rooted with ioroot25 without any issue and only have access to stock recovery so will this method (or any variation of it) not work since I do not have access to TWRP already on this new firmware ?

TIA,

Mtcell
[Sprint LG G2] DopePedaler:
This camera hack api you speak ok...Does it work better than the factory camera? For some reason, I thought that the camera works a bit better on 4.4.2 than it did before, but I have been on several ASOP roms for a while now, so I could be just used to their cameras. I am interested in this camera apk trick, let me know if it is worth it, and if you have a link to it as well.

Also, it does seem to eat battery a bit more than usual, and my sound is still very quiet, like I am running an AOSP rom.
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
If you did nothing, you can't flash any ROMs/kernels/recoveries. You'll have stock available and that's it.
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
The information in Post #2 will help you should you want to get to TWRP.

Just remember you need to flash TWRP - and I suggest you do that first before looking at Post #2.

That information just shows how to get in and out of TWRP without breaking your phone.
[Sprint LG G2] joshuajones:
I posted a link for the phonesky.apk, is that not what you needed?
[Sprint LG G2] bishaarcc:
Hello friends, so after a week of the sweet stock 4.4, I've followed the second post and get TWRP recovery, and then installed CM11, and it works fine but the problem is I have no sound, so I was wondering wether I need to flash some sort of Radio or kernel since I came from stock 4.4

this is are the steps I did:

1- I was first on the stock rooted 4.22

2- Downloaded garwynn'z zip in the first post and then followed extactly his instuctions.

3- I also did the second Post which gave me the TWRP Recovery.

4- I rebooted the phone into recovery and then installed CM11, Phone booted phone but no sound, is there any thing I missed? Thanks guys.
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
I suspect this may be an issue with the reverted aboot, much like the download problems.

I'll put this in IRC and see if anyone has a solution for this.

I'll also note this in AOKP thread so we're not keeping it going here.

(Note: I also had this in AOKP but didn't bring up because it was during OTA testing and was having many other issues. Chalked it up as that until this post.)
[Sprint LG G2] bishaarcc:
Thanks a lot for the quick response.
[Sprint LG G2] DREWHAMM974:
So as long as i follow the first and second post in theory Ill be able to do anything I could with 4.2.2? Also could i flash this and just use LG Flash tool to go back to zv8 if i wanted to change to anything else. If i don't do the second post i dont break downlpad mode correct?
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
In theory, yes.

Just keep in mind with this being "hot off the press" not everything has been caught in trying that out.

Take for example the audio loss that was just noted in the posts above.

I thought it was just me and now seems like it isn't.

The joys of version updates.... :/
[Sprint LG G2] DREWHAMM974:
Download mode does work though? That way I can flash back to zv8 if I decide I don't like it.
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
Download mode works when you are in "stock mode".

So if you want to flash back, make sure you flash the full ZVC radio zip in Post #2.

Then reboot into download mode and you should be all set.
[Sprint LG G2] DREWHAMM974:
I was meaning with the LG Flash Tool. So flash this and download mode works out of the box or must I flash TWRP and then flash the ZVC radio zip to be able to use download mode?
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
It works out of the box. (Only when going into TWRP or flash a ROM using post 2 method is where download mode breaks)

Debating on factory resetting my phone. Runs wonky and battery life is bad since update. I followed the steps in the op, first post. Can we Factory reset from inside settings on our phone? I still have root access also.
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
Honestly it wouldn't be a bad idea to do the ZVC tot. Just copy everything off, including TB backups, TOT it and put back on as needed.
[Sprint LG G2] InsanePostman:
The instructions worked perfect for me. So far everything is much smoother and battery life seems better as well. (1% use over 3+hours so far. Granted I'm not using my phone much today but that is better than JB was on battery life so far. Gonna drain it all the way and see how long I can make it last.) Thanks DEVs for your hard work!!

Hey fellas.

Currently working on a ROM Project (yay, right?), and I wanted to see if everything would compile correctly. And, well, it did. So that's pretty chill.

This is literally JUST CM11 with no changes at all. Hence, the 1 day only thing.

Not much else really needs to be said. So, I hope you enjoy it. Perhaps I'll just use this OP as the OP for my ROM Project when that gets finished up.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
Your first post mentioned the LG G2, so not sure which you're comparing...

There are plenty here who also use the Nexus 5 and can achieve that. Granted it might be light to medium usage (no heavy gaming). But 6+hours is certainly possible.

As for how the HTC can achieve this...for a start it has a more efficient chip. I recommend the Anandtech review to explain it.

You can compare this phones to as many other phones as you like, some will be better, some worse. The usage and 'testing' patterns are always different...

There are too many variables to judge 'battery life' universally on any device though. Technology is always developing, so next year will be even better, you'll feel worse again. It's hard, but you have to just stop comparing, let it go sometimes... ;)
