So once i go through the process of installing 24a bootstack can i just flash any kk rom now?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
well seeing as that's the official bootstack you should be able to flash any official kk rom(stock, flex, pro) but I am not too sure if it plays well with aosp

Ok I'm sorry for being a noob but it's been a while since I've done anything root related. So I'm rooted on Verizon LG g2 and can download the update on my phone no problem. However I get an error when installing, does this mean I have to go back to stock first?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
What's the error you are getting and you might have to go back to stock, have you removed bloat or modified the system partition?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fjgotgame24:
I removed bloatware
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
then that is the reason you can't flash the ota you only have two options either flash back to stock or restore the bloatware
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fjgotgame24:
So weird I used titanium backup to back up and delete bloatware but there no where to be round...guess I'll have to flash the stock Rom, do I just look for the verizon model in the Rom page and I'm good?

Also another thing is ive now downloaded the update twice but i have no clue where they go. If i dl it again is the file just taking up space somewhere?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
if you are using a root browser they should be located in cache/fota there should be a dlpkgfile, a script and some other files and also are do you have custom recovery sounds like you want to flash a stock rom? Also you want to use this to flash back to stock

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bayuadhi069:
Fix that with .kdz flash

1.turn off your phone (hold power button for 15seconds)

2.press and hold volume up button as you connect the phone to your pc

3.flash .kdz

4.wait until your phone reboot twice then disconnect from pc

5.factory reset.

To flash kdz using LG flashtool 2014 provided in xda, you should use cdma mode, and cse(cs emergency) flash

That will solve your issue.

If you are using D802 with kitkat, bad luck, kitkat bootloader cant go to recovery via button combo.

Solution:

1.downgrade bootloader using Autorec so you can access recovery via button combo

2.use an app like rebooter or similar
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d00lz:
Of course you can access recovery on a KitKat bootloader, you think everyone who is on Stock KitKat can never access some form of recovery? To access KitKat recovery press and hold PWR + VOLUME DOWN. When the LG Logo appears press and hold VOLUME DOWN + VOLUME UP.

Are you on JellyBean of KitKat? To access KitKat recovery press and hold POWER + VOLUME DOWN. When the LG Logo appears press and hold VOLUME DOWN + VOLUME UP. To access JellyBean recovery press and hold POWER + VOLUME DOWN. When the LG Logo appears press and hold POWER + VOLUME DOWN.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zhus06:
Quick question since i couldn't find the answer with search.

If we have a D802 STOCK only ROOT-ed. Should we remove ROOT before we do the OTA 5.X update?

Does anyone have experience with the OTA update on a root-ed phone, does it brick the phone or only remove root? If it removes the root at all.

I can't afford messing a lot with my phone since it has serious stuffs on it but i would really like the update but have root remained.

In short, OTA with root on STOCK, yes or no?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d00lz:
OTA is OKAY to take if you only have root.

OTA is NOT OKAY to take if you have a custom recovery installed, such as TWRP or CWM.

Really???

But NO Recovery mode, nor download mode, after OTA on rooted G2, you must fix it after that. And before and after lolli update is recommended to wipe all data from your phone.

IMO its simpler to return to stock before update. You get a faster, bugless device.

Hey everybody,

i got a problem "rerooting" my device. so i had to go back to stock, after my phone was in a bootloop, using the download mode. Now the phone is on 4.4.2 but it wont root again. I know that the download mode is still showing root but i also tried the method in the op. Sadly, it didnt work cause remote object '/persist/rct' does not exist and remote object '/persist/rct.cfg' does not exist. When i try to root the device its just not rebooting into download mode so the installation fails. Does anybody else have that problem and possibly could tell me what to do now?

Does anyone know where to get a good ZVC radio?

is there a reliable ZVC radio that can be flashed that won't brick me, stick me in fastboot, or boot loop? or am I stuck copying my ZVC backup and all my music to my usb stick and using flashtool to zv7->zv8->ZVA->ZVC then root and autorec and copy my backup back to the phone and restore in twrp?

Guys, are the OTAs on a phone received based on its IMEI or its rom version?

For example I have a german Tmobile on a greek carrirer (not tmobile) , i got the kitkat ota when it was made available and flashed a different rom which should be greek open but its not (i found a couple of telenor apps in carrier folder so i believe that its norwegian probably)

So my question is, am I going to get an update if knock code is made available or will i have to flash a kdz manually?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elite001mm:
I have a problem on all stock 24w roms I've tried. When the phone is in my pocket, sometimes it will lose 4g connectivity and switch to 1x. After it switches to 1x, the phone gets hot and drains the battery like a mofo. Switching airplane mode on and off gets me back 4g and the battery drain ends. Any idea how to fix this? Is it a known issue? I've never seen anyone else complain of it. It's weird how 3g is left out of this cycle. I can still get 3g fine, though.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
Well the way ota's work is that your phone needs to be connected to the phones original network in order to be able to connect with the network servers and check if there are updates to download so if you flash a different countries kdz then you won't receive the update, at least that's the way it should work
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] parisstc:
I think you are wrong as I got the OTA for Tmobile and wasnt using Tmobile at the time.. OTA most probably needs internet access, not original network

I am wondering if I get a notification to update when they release the knock code, if it will be safe to use OTA or firmware upgrade via pc tool
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
Well I spoke from experience with my device from att, unless it connects to the att network then I don't get updates, when kk started rolling out for us on Feb 27 I wasn't able to get any updates 10q/20c and had to rely on the leaks from everyone else, it can be different from other companies so I wouldn't know
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] parisstc:
thanks for the info, it would be nice to have someone explain why we had different experiences in different areas

I would expect OTA to work regardless of network since it can use the internet (unlike OTAs for TV sets using DVB-T for example)

Members,

Situation 1

TOT to ZVC - everything works properly

Successfully Installed TWRP through FreeGee

Took Backup of ZVC

Restored - No Boot

The phone would power on, stay at LG Logo and Notification LEDs would keep on blinking.

Flashed various ZVC Modems, but to no avail.

Situation 2

Clean Wipe

Flashed Stock Based 4.4 ROM

Flashed Modem

Heck, same as above. LG Logo with Notification LED blinking.

Now I understand maybe Autorec can be a solution, but I do not want to TOT again and lose all data.

The phone runs CM11, AOKP fine. It also runs ZVA based ROMs. It's ZVC that has gone for a toss.

Has someone been able to solve this?
