Hi guys, I've buy the lg g2 d802 just yesterday.
I really want to try miui v7.
So I've downgrade lollipop to kk trough kdz and everything goes fine. now starts the problems.
I cannot find a good tool to root and I use a one click root + twrp that root the phone fine but when it ask me to reboot to download mode, it stuck at finding new port.
but beside that the phone was rooted (i've check that with root checker).
Then I really don't find any tool or guide to install TWRP recovery, and so I have to install autorec for KitKat. that is the only tool that works for me (twrp manager doesn't work).
So I install with twrp miui v7 gtbluesky.
But many apps don't work, such as camera.
Somewhere I've read that autorec for kitkat downgrade the bootloader to JB and miui needs KK bootloader, maybe is this the problem?
can you advice me a good tool for root and install twrp on G2? So I can have KK bootstack and install miui?
thank you a lot in advance and sorry for noob question

1. if you on KK use towelroot.
2.use autoreck for KK to install twrp.
3.update twrp with blastagator thermal 2.8.7.3 when installing do a reboot into recovery to boo into new twrp.
if you installing a rom that new KK bootstacks bumped download your variant here.

Hello,
sometimes I am reading that some users are installing TWRP via AutoRec.
But sometimes I am also reading that some users install Bump!ed versions of TWRP by simply flashing it directly via Flashify for example.
Are there any advantages/disadvantages comparing those methods?
Or would both give the same results?
What is currently considered the best way to install TWRP on the LG G2 when TWRP has not been installed yet?
Regards

It depends on the roms you will be using, if you're going to use a bumped ROM then using the latest stock base and flashing twrp though flashify is the cleanest method, but if the ROM you're using isn't bumped you need the jelly bean bootloader and thus should use autorec. Note that you can install bumped ROMs on the jelly bean bootloader but you CAN NOT install non bumped ROMs on the kitkat bootloader. If you are using a bumped setup and flash a non bumped ROM, it will boot loop. If you don't have a BUMPED ROM still on your storage, you will need to factory reset through download mode or fastboot (whichever you have, some flashable bootstacks purposefully break download mode to enable fastboot. I personally prefer download mode, if I can't get to an adb prompt I'd rather just flash a kdz).

Hey wq.
I very recently installed AutoRec on my D802, which has the latest 4.4.2 KK. It works flawlessly, and I recommend it. I believe the .apk installs TWRP 2.7.0.0, which has worked for me very well, and I have installed at least 15 different ROMs with it so far.
Hello,
thank you very much for your fast and detailed answers.
So, let's assume someone uses AutoRec to install TWRP for the first time on a LG G2, which only installs an old version of TWRP (version 2.7.0.0).
Which TWRP version should one then use to update to the latest version of TWRP?
Would you use the blastagator version from over there:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/development/twrp-twrp-2-8-0-0-kernel-f2fs-tools-t2898705
Or would you use the official version from over there:
http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/197
And how would you install it?
By simply booting into TWRP 2.7.0.0 (provided by AutoRec) and then from there flashing the latest TWRP zip file?

I wanted to flash cloudy rom which is bumped.
So i straight away used flashify to flash bumped recovery and then flashed the rom..
No autorec needed.
I flashed blastgator's twrp with thermal control.
So, I have a LG G2 D805 (Latin America Version), I installed the D802 5.0.2 (adapted by a brazilian dev, of course). At first I had root, but I removed it from Supersu cause I wanted use One Click Root Recovery to make root and install TWRP at once. There begins the ****...
One Click Root Recovery and SRK Tool doesn't work... it ever stop on download mode. And it gets worse, because FlashTools don't accepted the flash (it says the device has been disconnected).
So, I dont have root, TWRP or Download Mode. The only solution would be an app like towelroot to make root and after install TWRP with Autorec LP.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Resolved!
I just use FlashTools with device on.

I would simply :
Download Stump Root, run it (the device will reboot twice)
AutoRec it
Install desired recovery
Enjoy
How to Root a G2 which has TWRP installed?
Hi there!
I'm a beginner and I would be grateful if you could help me with this.
While trying to install CyanogenMod, I rooted my G2 using ioroot and then install Autorec. At this point I made a mistake and recover KitKat stock with Autorec, loosing root privileges. Now when I try to root using ioroot, the device shows me the TWRP menu.
I am stuck here. How could I root and install CyanogenMod????
Thanks a lot!!! Please let me know if this is not the right place for asking this in the forum.
Hi,
I think you can download flashable SuperSu and flash it via TWRP.

Hi @TwinHeadedEagle, thanks a lot for your reply. I installed SuperSu through GooglePlay, after being installed it requested to make some modifications through TWRP, which it successfully did. At this point I was wondering wether I actually had root access or not to my device, so I decided to install Root Checker. This last one says that 'Root access is properly installed on this device'.
So I guess that I am root and I can with 'Installing CyanogenMod from recovery' as it is showed at https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_d802.
Am I right?
Root is not required to install CM, only a custom recovery.
I have a d802. It was running stock Lollipop with no root. I installed a custom recovery (TWRP) and was able to flash CM12.1, Cloudy, and Orion.

Thanks @audit13! At first I was exceptional about using customs roms, but It certainly has given new life into my D802. I find very sad that companies do not work for keeping our devices updated, It is a way of planned obsolescence. My D802 has more than enough hardware for what I use it and now that I have managed to update it (without the help of LG) it is like having a brand new phone!
Thanks to all the xda-developers community!

Hello people, unfortunately I have no time to read this big forum in order to get the informations I'm asking for in this thread, so I hope you understand and could contribute giving me the infos, it won't take much time. So here are the questions:
(before you proceed, I'm at the moment, using stock 5.0.2 ROM, unrooted, in my d802)
1. Should I flash CM 12.1 over Lollipop stock ROM or it's better to go back to KitKat stock ROM before?
2. What's the best method to root d802?
3. In order to get CM 12.1 I should: root -> install twrp bumped -> flash CM12.1 -> flash gapps. Is that right?
Thank you in advance
ypu need to read..we all did at some point.. but click on my signature where it says HERE and it will take you to guides how to's and fixes loo at root and use what ever workd for you.. remeber to use only d802 files. for you d802. and have in mind you may have a refurbished phone.. sometimes they say d802 when motherboard is d800-ls980...
root.. the install autorec from playstore.. install twrp... search for thermal twrp from blastagator and update that twrp to the thermal one.
also flash hybridbootstacks for your variant.. install in twrp... then reboot twrp not to system but from twrp into twrp again to take effect.. then flash rom and gapps.
Question..is it a must that he updates to thermal twrp from the Auto rec version twrp 2.8? Is it because of the "bump"..not sure what that is
Hello,
I tried to install the new Nougat rom for jiayu S3, but it was unsuccessful. Phone got soft bricked, but I recovered it with a twrp backup.
My OS is android 4.4.4, and TRWP is 2.8. After installing the new rom , an installation error appeared and phone did not work.
I wonder it it's due to twrp 2.8, but I can't install twrp 3 (S3_h560_TWRP_3.0.2-0). There was an installation error with flashify...
The question is: can I install 7.0 from 4.4? Is it an Android problem, a TWRP issue, or just my clumsiness?
Thank you!

in short:
To go from 4.4.4 to Nougat you need to go via LP RC5 via flashify using firmware upgrade.
This is because the partition layout is different from KK to LP onwards.
Then you can flash Nougat using TWRP (which will be version 3)
Thank you very much for your answer.
Please forgive me for my ignorance but, which LP ROM should I download? Can I install it via flashify, via TWRP 2.8, o flash?
Thank you again!
You can not use Flashify, you have to do it using Flashtools (with a PC) to go from KK to LP. Download LP 5.1.1 RC 5 from MAD.

thanks to correct me, I thought Flashtools was meant
Well, I'm in trouble now... I installed successfully 5.1 in my S3, but when updated twrp 2.8 to 3.0, it did not work, so I can't install Nougat...
Now I have no twrp, and no root. How can I root to install twrp? I can't install superSU neither....
I'm sorry if it has been already answered but I can't find it.
Thanks a lot
I re-installed LP with Flash tools and everything worked right. (In twrp , it says 2.8 version, instead of 3.0, though).
Now I installed Nougat, and everything is ok.
Thank you for your excellent job!
