[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] finalfantasy:
Hello

Im just recently bought this device from a friend so i could ditch my broken Galaxy S2. I just need a good looking phone that does the job without lag and is unrestricted in terms of access which means, i want to be able to install custom roms. Oh and screen size is also important to me.

I however am NOT new to the android modding community and ive created a couple of things myself, but for every new phone im forced to relearn almost everything. Aaand boy did this phone land me in a very awkward situation that 6 hours of pure googling, experimenting with different firmwares etc, couldn't fix.

I learned the hard way that i have a JDI display and that its less common than the other one. I followed some simple guide where i was on 4.4.2 already and basically rooted it with ioroot. Now the only method ive found so far to install a recovery on a stock 4.4.2 lg g2 (d802) 32gb edition is by using a certain application called autorec.

I did try it. It seemed to work. No error. However, to my suprise i found out i had a screen that was completely covered in white/green/blue lines. By how the procedure was supposed to go, the app was supposed to boot me to twrp recovery after the install. And im guessing it did because i could feel the vibrations of the different buttons as i tapped the screen on different places. But i couldnt see what i was doing.

I researched into it and found out about the whole jdi thing. Found a Europe Open D80230b.kdz firmware and flashed it but just blindly booting the phone into download mode tho it was still covered in lines and couldnt see a thing. Once it was done, the phone booted and the LG logo was visible and the lines started to decay and slowly dissapeared. after about an hour, they were totally gone.

Now to the main issue im having and the question i have for you if can help me.

How do i go about installing a recovery that works (that i can actually see) so that i may access the menu in order to install this ldi kernel zip? Ive tried installing a recovery with the one click root + recovery script by somboons.

It gets stuck on this part "author : blog.lvu.kr

SPECIAL COMMAND : ENTER,LEAVE

#"

I basically CANT install a recovery on 5.0.2 with the one click script because it gets stuck. Cant root it either with SRKTools. I CANT install recovery on 4.4.2 with Autorec because my phone gets covered in white lines and i cant see what im doing. I tried installing a certain jellybean firmware to go from there. Using the open europe d802 jellybean firmware wasnt possible because the flash tool kept giving me disconnection errors. So i tried installing a open polish d802 firmware. got white lines so that is a no go too. One thing that i suprisingly can do. I can root it using the LG one click root method 1.3. The 1.2 script cmd version doesnt work. It gets stuck on the special command # part, however the graphical interface version roots without any problems.

ive found the recovery im gonna use which is supposedly nicer to jdi screen that, according to the creator, is supposed to generate less heat on the jdi screen. however i dont know how im supposed to install it. For now im gonna use the 5.0.2 open europe d80230b firmware til i find a solution. All im trying to accomplish here is to successfully install CloudyG2 3.3. And open the doors for a potential cm13 install.
