Here is the link how to completely kill the OTA update from even downloding http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2612003. Dont forget the fota kill app.

And here is a link to my way of getting out of the boot loop.

http://xdaforums.com/show...2603454&page=7 post #70 In this case its better you did not try any other stuff, but you can still use adb to remove the fota.img file, and stiil have your data. In your case, since you wiped you may lose your data. The fota.img needs to be removed before the phone boots, since it runs each time automatically. Piece of s***t.

I was in a similar jam, stucked in a loop where I kept on coming back to the recovery, no matter how many times I reinstalled cm11. Then suddenly I was able to boot my phone again when I flashed the recovery and reinstalled cm11.

Is there another flashable kitkat file for the g pro, maybe I'm just not following the links correctly but OTA updating is impossible for me even on wifi, it just times out. So if anyone could hook me up with another link or the file itself that would be a huge help. Thank you for your time.

[LG Optimus G Pro] Johnnykillertech:
i wish i should of seen this thread earlier i could have just done a clean installed instead of a restore. Is there any advantage? will a clean install perform better then a restore? just wondering if it would help with stuff like speed and battery. I know it will be the same android OS but its a different way of installing. Suggestions?

Are you by chance using an Xposed module called Xinstaller? That one causes those errors for me.

Still testing

i tried this rom a few days ago and i must say , it wasn't that bad if you ask me but i didn't dive in to deep with it really . only because i had a few problems with it from the get go and that was , 1 the network wasn't working meaning i couldn't make or receive calls on my phone and 2 the camera wasn't working as well :( ! well for the network thing my phone is a E980 AT&T but the international version so ( MAYBE ) that's why my network wasn't working .......... JUST SAYING PEOPLE , JUST SAYING
[LG Optimus G Pro] uscanst56:
Just tried it myself. Hadn't run stock kitkat in quite some time. Worked flawlessly. ATT e980. Mind you I had forgotten a few things like editing build prop for open and global to be able to change lte to h+ to 2g. But it's all coming back to me know.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Trialz Nexus One:
This happens to be my daily driver. So far the only reliable Rom for the e980. The efforts I see on other threads is commendable but way too many hacks required to get stable and reliable performance as with this standard Rom. I use xposed framework to get the other features I wanted.

Hoping a standard build is released for this phone with lollipop...
[LG Optimus G Pro] NOOBHEADFORLIFE:
did anyone got the network and camera working as yet ? really wanna give this rom a second run ! i can kinda do without the camera for now but can somebody pls tell me how to fix the network error in yhe " build. file " ?
[LG Optimus G Pro] D Sami:
failed to flash with TWRP on e980
[LG Optimus G Pro] chappatti:
Why dont you use the real LG tot or kdz files with the flash tools to get full proper stock ? All problems should go away.
[LG Optimus G Pro] NOOBHEADFORLIFE:
actually that's what im doing now , im there downloading the tot file so i can flash the phone to stock kitkat since i cant find a 100% working kitkat rom for this phone . now u might be asking why i took so long to do just that , well its only because i know if i flash the phone with the tot file im no longer gonna have root or a unlock bootloader for my kitkat stock OS !

BUT THANKS FOR THE REPLIE BRO :good:
[LG Optimus G Pro] chappatti:
Oh, but you will be happy to know that rooting and unlocking are now so easy............I flash back to stock and root/unlock so often!! Its the cleanest way to restore your phone :)
[LG Optimus G Pro] NOOBHEADFORLIFE:
hey can you tell me how you got your 4.4.2 KITKAT stock os unlocked ? i rooted mine already but cant seem to get freegee to unlock my bootloader !
[LG Optimus G Pro] dpalmer76:
Google search Kingroot
[LG Optimus G Pro] NOOBHEADFORLIFE:
Correct me if I'm wrong but u thought " kingoroot " was for rooting Android devices ? ! And if so then i don't need kingoroot because I'm already rooted , just wanna unlock my bootloader !
[LG Optimus G Pro] dpalmer76:
Not Possible

Can't unlock bootloader (freegee w/jb). Only work around.

I didn't quiet understand what u meant when u said " can't unlock bootloader " ! Did you mean that the optimus g pro don't have a lock bootloader ( witch it those ) ? Or yoh was trying to say " freegee " can unlock my bootloader ( witch it can't on OS 4.4.+ ) ?

---------- Post added at 08:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:12 PM ----------

I got my bootloader unlock and a custom recovery installed o my phone :D good looking out
[LG Optimus G Pro] chappatti:
Thats exactly what he means. There is a hack -it is workariund not an actual unlock. Look up lokifying...
[LG Optimus G Pro] NOOBHEADFORLIFE:
lolz , i know about lokify and freegee and all a that but what i though he was telling me to use was freegee app on my 4.4.2 witch i was running at the time and both you and i know that freegee app don't work on android os 4.4.+ :D ! but its all good bro i found a workaround for it already
[LG Optimus G Pro] chappatti:
The FreeGee app has been updated specifically for Gpro and LG G2 and works great on my LG E980 on Stock rooted KitKat 4.4.2.

See this link for the app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=edu.shell.freegee&hl=en

I have used it over 10 times (or something like that !!! :D )to update my recovery. It always works. I can vouch for it.
[LG Optimus G Pro] NOOBHEADFORLIFE:
the link u posted is for the paid version and i was running the free version on my phone so maybe that's why it wasn't working on my 4.4.2 . i downgraded back to 4.1.2 today but ill reinstall the 4.4.2 TOT file and give the paid freegee app a run :D GOOD LOOKING OUT BRO
[LG Optimus G Pro] chappatti:
Ooops! My bad. ?? The link was supposed tO be the free version. The free version works just fine kn E980. Here

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ree&pcampaignid=APPU_1_t-CdVdeYFsvl-AHi_JLQBQ

If yousearch the play store for Freegee Free it pops up. But for $1.00 its a steal!!!!!!!
[LG Optimus G Pro] abced123:
does it work with TWRP 3.0.x ?
[LG Optimus G Pro] esimon311:
If you already have 4.4 installed you could just use the root-tool i did from this thread over on LGViet. You will have to use a browser with translate capabilities, like Google chrome. But its fairly simple.

i removed all the AT&T crap and some Google stuff, nothing you cant re install from the play store if you want. ill start it uploading as soon as its done....

[LG Optimus G Pro] HD2FORNICK:
Haha. Good for me. By the time I get home there'll be a brand new ROM to download and play with. :p
[LG Optimus G Pro] mopo01:
I find if you do an advanced restore and only restore boot image and system you keep all of your settings without having to set it up again :D

Installed perfectly and now running KK with no waiting for setting up the phone. Took less than five minutes
[LG Optimus G Pro] esimon311:
THATS UP TO U , this new one is de-bloated and u dont have to clear my contacts and stuf out ...
[LG Optimus G Pro] JCred:
I suspect you'll run into problems, or at minimum, sub-optimal performance because KK uses a different partitioning scheme than JB. Hopefully lI'm wrong because I wouldn't mind an easier path myself.

what cwm version did you currently use?

is it the latest cwm from freegee app?
[LG Optimus G Pro] slickrickstyles:
The md5 mismatch error im receiving is also from the UK mirror upload. The one on google is not available.

EDIT

Got it to work. My problem was that when extracting it to the desktop and moving it to the sdcard winrar had the files in two folders with the same name. I had to move the files to just one folder located in Backup.
[LG Optimus G Pro] hyelton:
What UK mirror arenyou you talking about? I only see my mirror and the Google drive link. My links are my server in Chicago :p
[LG Optimus G Pro] mopo01:
I have been doing this for a long time (not on KK as i was waiting for one that the speaker phone worked) and never had an issue.

Not sure but I think the partition path that is different is in the boot and system image.

So far been running for the last few hours and seeing better over all better performance. I will post update next week if I see any fc....

Well, I just got this phone Monday replacing my Htc One X and I fell in love. I saw on here there was a kit kat update released yet my phone is giving the "your device is unregistered" so I'm going to wait to get this cwm restore. Quick question, if my music and pics are on internal storage, will they be wiped if I were to restore?
[LG Optimus G Pro] esimon311:
Im pretty sure they will be. To be safe if u can put them on your sd card.

[LG Optimus G Pro] JCred:
Off the top of my head, Kit Kat adds /system/priv-app (and I think eliminates preload). Considering the ample size of our jb system partition, it's possible that the system wipe leaves plenty of room to accommodate the new directory. However, updates to Google/system apps install on the data partition. So, it's entirely possible to have a new, stable OS, that isn't actually updated 100%.

I'm not questioning your knowledge- i'm not a Dev, either. But, devs almost always emphasize the necessity for full-wipes whenever up/downgrading from one major release to another. e.g. dirty-flashing 4.1.x to 4.1.x is usually safe. But, even though 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, were all under the JB umbrella, each differed enough that full wipe (data/media excluded) was advised. Or OTA is equivalent to going from 2.2.x to 4.1.0

Just my two cents.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Chronic cross:
Alright. Will do. Also, do you recommend doing a factory wipe then restore your backup?
[LG Optimus G Pro] esimon311:
you can it never hurts to wipe....
[LG Optimus G Pro] esimon311:
I agree completely if we are talking about flash-able roms i always do a clean instill, even with nighties..

but this is a restore/backup, im not 100% certain but wouldn't that be the point of a restore...i think the restore process wipes you data.?

but by all means,,,, wipe-data factory reset then restore..better safe then sorry.. right...

ill even add it to the OP...
[LG Optimus G Pro] JCred:
Am i blind?

I'm not seeing the new version. I have the original downloaded, but I'd rather not violate your privacy by flashing it even if I were to immediately do a factory reset. Tapatalk Pro got an update today, with 2 game-changing features "Slower-than-dial-up" and "no-load" modes.

Is your new build upped? I'd not, no worries. If so, can you point me?

[LG Optimus G Pro] ajace:
Just reporting back that everything is working great, similar to old stock. It's ugly but hey, can always theme it later. This is much easier than using LGFlashTool and re-adding a recovery and root again. I got rid of the ATT bloatware and the apps LG apps I never use. Battery life seems on par with the best CM roms, about 3-4 hours on screen time. I've been playing with it all day. Stand by may be better.

[LG Optimus G Pro] JCred:
You know, i'm face palming myself right now. I completely lost sight of the fact we're not flashing- we have to share a Nandroid lol. In that case, wiping is not necessary. I've restored backups both ways. But, I tend to look at it as since I'm having to revert I might as well take advantage of the opportunity to wipe 2 or 3x because it can't hurt anything (unless you absentmindedly wipe your SD (or equivalent), too. Unfortunately, I've done that before.

In this case, I will format the whole thing first, simply because I never have and I'll have an excuse to. Again, sorry for the misunderstanding. :laugh:
