I have a question, I am using LG G2 D802, rooted, using CWM v6.0.4.4. My sister also uses LG G2 D802, she updated her G2 in Kitkat. So I want to get the update also, I opened the Update Center and tried to update, but I can't see the update for kitkat. Only "V10f-DEC-23-2013" appeared on my update list, so I update my G2, and restarted the phone, and stuck on CWM. Resolved this problem by following instructions on the threads here (Thanks to you guys!), but my question is, how can I update to kitkat when I can't get passed updating to V10f-DEC-23-2013 that stucks my phone to CWM boot loop (Tried downloading many times but stucks me up at CWM bootloop)? Anyone out there experienced this kind of problem? Can you guys please suggest me what to do?
you should update on clean stock rom without root and the custom recovery.

Hi! I haven't seen any posts about this, and couldn't find any posts either by searching, so I'll ask
I've got an F320S which is rooted. I tried to install a 20MB update, but got "blocked" because of root. I installed custom-recovery in order to try to installing it from there, but with no luck. That resulted in a bootloop. So my question is: How can I update my phone?
Is it also possible to update it to KitKat (if there are any KitKat update for F320S. I've seen it on the internet, so it is available?)
Thanks!

you have a custom recovery installed on your phone, this is why the update fails. the custom recovery is not the same as the stock recovery so the script the update uses to execute the update doesnt work for custom recoveries. you'd have to reinstall the stock recovery to get the update to work. i dont know where you'd get that for the f320s. maybe if there is a guide to go back to complete stock for the f320s then that will also give you back stock recovery. then you can make a copy of the stock recovery image for yourself. also if you have root you can install supersu then go into supersu settings and scroll all the way to the bottom and unroot your device.
I made a backup of the stock recovery before flashing CWM. Wouldn't it be possible to just restore it? I flashed and made a backup with flashify!

I tried to install stock recovery, unroot, and then update, but for some reason, the phone still suspected me for being rooted...
Hello guys,, I'm a new user of G2, and have rooted it after a week when I bought it. I've searched similar following question but seems like I can't find the exactly answer I'm looking for..
So, first of all, please excuse me because I'm still new with G2..
I'm currently on Stock 4.2.2 JB v.20e rooted G2 and I'm still about to install a custom recovery into it. I decided to stay in JB since I found there are still some minor problems in KitKat firmware... My questions are:
1. If I already installed CWM or TWRP, and when I want to get back to Stock firmware, will the custom recovery disappeared or will it stay there?
2. I've read in some cases, update to KitKat from a rooted Stock JB via OTA could cause a bootloop. So if I back to purely Stock, it means the root access will be vanished right? can I update to KitKat via OTA safely after I back to Stock firmware?
thanks a lot in advance guys..
It depends on how you "restore" back to stock. If you make a backup in the recovery and restore from there, then no, the recovery will not disappear. But if you flash the stock image with adb or fastboot or whatever it's called (I think it may be called download mode) , then yes, the recovery will be gone.
It's my understanding that if you are on Jb, rooted with no mods other than root, then you can take the ota and you will have rooted kitkat. But don't quote me on that. Google some more.

I used FreeGee to try to install a custom recovery after root. First TWRP, stuck at performing action. Then CWM. Then the older CWM. Always stuck at performing action. The old CWM worked. Reboot to recovery and get security boot error. Looked around on forums and found a CWM batch install that everyone says works for them. Still recovery boot error. Anyone know what's up? I'm on AT&T D800. Rooted by ioroot25
Also RomManager says I have both recoveries installed. Thinking this might be the issue. How do I delete one or both and get on the right track?
I think I have the same problem. Could u solve the problem?

no you can't get recovery on kk because they patched our recovery/loki exploit on kk bootloader

Safest way is to go back to stock 4.2.2 first, then root with IOroot then install recovery.lok

Thanks again for quick help however I have checked the downgrade process and its too long plus I have to download stock 4.2.2 firmware which is 1GB plus in size..
So is there no easy method to install recovery on already rooted stock 4.4.2 firmware?

No, no easy one, and some might even say none at all, but you can read the rooting thread where they discuss recovery as well http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448887
Hi folks! I have a Galaxy S4 GPE, rooted and unlocked, but stock otherwise. When I try to run the OTA update for 4.4.3, the phone reboots into TeamWin recovery and appears to start installing. The install errors out though. Can I not install the OTA update because I'm rooted? If so, would reverting the rooting allow me to install? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!
Install Stock recovery and then try again

Is there a thread on how to do that? I seem to remember when I installed this recovery tool to root the phone, it wiped everything. Is it going to do that again? Because I don't want to have to keep wiping my phone every time a new Android update comes out just to be rooted.

I went through that method, and it's essentially the same thing, except that I'm downloading the actual update file myself and not letting Android handle it. Needless to say it didn't work. I also updated my TWRP to 2.7.1.0 and tried; no luck. I also uninstalled SuperSU to see if removing root would help. It didn't.

It's the problem of no read for be vague. It worked perfectly on the GPE of my sister. The update that appears in the website is ready for install it through custom recovery. Read all the guide:
Hello,
If i run the latest application. update for my LG G2 d802 it goes right in bootloop
I rooted my phone so it stucks in TWRP recovery that is installed with autorec
I use my phone right now because i found a fix for the bootloop but my question is how can i update my device without risking a bootloop.
(Sorry for the grammar im dutch my english is a little bit low.)
I am having the same issue and would like to know your fix for the bootloop.
edit:
OK never mind, I have since fixed my bootloop issue using this fix:

And to answer OPs question:

No OTA with TWRP installed! You have to go back to stock (Link in the second post of this thread), take the OTA and root (& install TWRP) again.

Alternatively, I read you can /freeze/ the update mechanism using a program called titanium backup so it doesn't bother you with it anymore.
Although I am unsure about the exact procedure to do so, sorry.
