If you delete it you will get SIM not recognized error. You must have that file. I hope you have a backup.

Once I had data, I deleted that file and lost it. I had to restore by nandroid.

i couldn't unlock with renaming OmaDmclient.apk nor with deleting it.. should i delete all bloatware apks? it wont't unlock :(
[Sprint LG G2] scottdanpor:
Without OmaDmclient.apk you have no chance of unlocking it. That bloatware list is confirmed for KK, on LP we don't know what effect it has to remove them. I only know that removing OmaDmclient disables Hands free activation, and data long with it.

If you want to remove bloatware, get everything working, make a backup, then rename them one by one to make sure nothing bad happens.

I have gone back to CloudyG2. This update is nice, but the Hands free activation pop up and other minor annoyances have pushed me back. Will try again when a nice flashable rom is available.

Incidentally, for testing reasons I had to reinstall the Lollipop OTA, and I have been unable to unlock it. This update is a bit baffling. No idea how I unlocked it before.
[Sprint LG G2] tonochito:
Finally i made it works but in different way it seems that if you "copy" and replace it will not work, is better to delete the carrier folders and place the ones of unlock sim. As some of you i am mad about the activation etc, i did the steps of unlock of kitkat changing Sprint related apks to bak and what i get was again the invalid sim card thing, also i could't get data service, had to ad them with this apk e Change APN 1.0 by Appando, mi question is how can i disable the stupid message of voicemail? I don't want to be going back to kitkat and then again lollipop is very boring

[Sprint LG G2] scottdanpor:
Managed to get everything working smoothly in the update, including xposed. I do kinda wish ambient display had been included. The touch screen seems a bit more sensitive to me, but maybe that's a result of using ART. Sometimes when I swipe it responds to a single press.

All in all, if you're on CloudyG2 I think you have a very similar experience. Since I use nova, once I get everything restored, I don't notice much difference. Maybe a bit snappier moving around. Notifications on lock screen and the new recent app window are nice, but not a game changer.

I can't comment on battery life yet, but the idle usage seems great so far.

Things I miss from Kitkat: xprivacy (replaced by LBE security guard), Advanced restart menu (Seems not applied in Gravitybox LP)

Things I miss from Custom: Ambient display, fine notification control, privacy guard, 5.1.1 <- Custom sometimes comes with a reduction to stability and battery life.

Take the apn-conf from that and paste it to your etc folder replacing the existing. You can look in it to verify yours is there.

There isn't an easy way to add APN, but you can edit that file.

Edit: Oops just saw your other reply, you can add your APN settings to that file if they're not there. It's not the easiest way but the only way.

Lost mobile data after sideloading the ZVG ota, then fixed it

Yesterday I picked up a replacement G2 from Sprint that was on ZVA. I ran the ZVE tot file and then sideloaded ZVG as I did on my previous G2. This time however, I lost mobile data. I checked the settings, tried to reactivate though the settings menu, sideloaded ZVG over again, and nothing would bring it back. I went ahead and ran the tot again and sure enough, LTE pops up. So it does work. SIdeloaded ZVG once again and of course, no mobile data. I was about to head to the Sprint store when I though to take a look at the dialer codes for differnt menus. I saw that ##UPDATE# will force activation, so I gave it a shot. Mobile data is now working. So, if anyone loses their mobile data after the OTA or after sideloading it, give that dialer code a shot.

TL;DR ##UPDATE# dialer code fixed mobile data that was lost after sideloading th ZVG ota

Hey guys, quick question. I bought a. Sprint LG G2, and had Boost Mobile Re sku it so i could use it with their service.

[Sprint LG G2] secret.animal:
Replacing recovery is just one thing. The boot loader and kernel would need replaced.

Best option is to tot, and if you do find the zve update to flash, do it via adb n stock recovery. And then do zvg the same. Or let it ota.
[Sprint LG G2] mk_bomber96:
Flashed the zve tot and didna adb sideload for zvg,using it on a sim enabled CDMA network in India,without any mods it's unlocked already by default without any mods.

OTA downloaded but not applying

I have received the OTA update but when I apply the update it restart the phone update starts applying but after 20% to 30% phone restarts again and I am still on KITKAT, the OTA didn't installed. I am not on sprint network(unlocked phone), but on STOCK recovery and not rooted.

Can anyone explain ?

This happened to me thrice, I have already factory reset the phone but it didn't help.
[Sprint LG G2] James7Bond007:
The bad news is the easiest solution for you would be to TOT back to ZVE and then take the OTA to ZVG. The reason the update is failing is because it's verifying all your system files are originals, and it is finding something that has changed - probably when you unlocked the phone?

The good news is that many people recommend doing a factory reset after upgrading to Lollipop anyway, so you're not really losing anything by TOTing back to ZVE first if you were going to factory reset anyway. I'd TOT back to ZVE, take the OTA to ZVG, factory reset just for good measure, and then unlock the phone again (I'm on Sprint, so I don't have any info for you on how to unlock, but I believe if you're overseas nothing is required to unlock it for non-US GSM carriers?)
[Sprint LG G2] MA52:
I am still on ZVE .. ZVG update downloading but not applying and I got the phone unlocked with ZVE
[Sprint LG G2] James7Bond007:
Right - understood. What I'm recommending you try is to TOT back to ZVE. I realize you're already on ZVE, but the update is likely failing because of a modified ZVE system file. Without any way to see the updater's debug messages (you may be able to see them if you sideload the update via the "adb sideload" method), it's not possible to tell which system file is causing the update to fail.

If you use the TOT to reflash the factory unmodified ZVE to your phone, the OTA update to ZVG should install without any issues. After you've done that, you can proceed with unlocking, rooting, whatever as desired.

See this thread http://xdaforums.com/sprint-g2/general/ls980-zve-ota-zip-update-zvc-zve-t2912488 for the ZVE TOT file. Instructions on how to use it can also likely be found in that thread.
[Sprint LG G2] MA52:
Thanks for explaining, one more thing Do I have to unlock the phone again after flashing the TOT file??
[Sprint LG G2] James7Bond007:
The short answer is I don't know. I thought I read somewhere (not sure where) that ZVG is unlocked for international (non-US) GSM carriers. If you're trying to use your phone on AT&T or TMobile in the US, then you will need to unlock it. I'm not 100% sure of that process since I've never done it, but check the other threads in this forum.
[Sprint LG G2] WhiteZero:
Beware this requires TWRP to be installed, which isn't indicated in the app at all. I got in a bootloop trying to use this thing and have to TOT back to ZVE and then sideload ZVG.

You were rooted in which the phone was unlocked to change it to gsm network. This breaks update process. File is not original.

You can tot, which would probably be easiest. Or root, copy an original apn-conf file over top. Unroot, and take ota or side load.

Download the zve tot file and flash it with LG flash tool then allow the handsfree activation to happen.. After handsfree activation finishes u'll get ur sprint bootscreen back and a new roaming option in settings... Then root ur mobile with stump root and follow the sim unlock thread to unlock ur phone and just perform the first step where u copy the carrier folder don't do anything else... Then ur mobile will be unlocked.. Then unroot ur mobile and update ur software to ZVG either by adb sideloading it or by simply going into settings/system updates/update lg software... After updating to ZVG if u r not using sprint network ur mobile internet/data won't work.. U'll have to go into settings/Roaming/Access Point Names and put the internet and mms settings manually.. Or if u wan't ur mobile to load the apn settings automatically for any network sim u insert in ur mobile... Again root ur mobile this time on ZVg software with LG one click root and then follow the second step in the sim unlock thread where u copy the apn_conf.xml file and del two other file mmssms.ddb and telephony.ddb... After doing this ur mobile will automatically load the apn settings for any network sim u insert in ur mobile and u won't have to put them manually... Then u can unroot ur mobile or keep it rooted ur choice.. Note:- the reason why u should unlock ur mobile on ZVE(kitkat) sofware is that even if u allow the handsfree activation to happen on ZVG(lollipop) software and then root and unlock it by copying the carrier folder.. U'll lose the roaming option in settings after u copy the carrier folder in ZVG.... I hope it helps u and everyone else....
