FYI - Flashify is the easiest method I know of to flash recovery. Its been updated recently and you can download and flash twrp 2.7 from within the app.

So, I've got a dumb question. Did u use flashify to update to twrp 2.7 after u already had an earlier version of twrp? Or did u go back to 12b, root, then use flashify to flash straight to 2.7?

Same question. AFAIK you have to flash earlier version and then update to 2.7 in recovery using a zip.
I flashed back to stock 11a, rooted, used ota root keeper, took the 12b ota, then Flashed recovery with

FWIW, if you already have a recovery installed you should be able to flash the .zip of 2.7 through flashify. This would have the same net effect of flashing your new recovery .zip from your current recovery(2.6). The benefit being the ease of downloading and flashing through the app rather than doing it manually.

Thanks! I thought that was the case for updating from 2.6 - 2.7. I don't have a custom recovery at the moment. I went back to 11a, took the 12b OTA, rooted, and was planning to install twrp 2.6.3.3 through adb via Loki (followed by updating to 2.7). However, it sounds like I can skip right to 2.7 via flashify...?

Remember to keep a copy of your working ROM so you can flash it if anything wrong happend. This ROM already included the system, kernel and modules needed for KitKat. (thanks for @xdabbeb's patched kernel)
This is untouched VS980 OTA KitKat ROM in flashable zip format (you can find @xdabbeb's manually method here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2699123).

Thnx @Cloudyfa for putting up the ROM for us.
If i understand it correctly i can simply flash the rom and baseband zip file.
Iam currently running SlimKat 4.4.2 AOSP ROm on 12B everything (baseband/modem/bootloader etc) with CWM 6.0.4.4.
I never took 24A LG KK update.
Is my understanding correct ?
I knew this was coming, spent a ton of time getting back to stock (had to use tot method after fighting kdz method) just last night. Oh well upward and onwards, to infinity and beyond.
I am still on 11A is flashing this going to be an issue?

this. same question for me. I never upgraded to 12b...
That's a great question. Xdabbeb kernel has a 12b aboot check. None have determined that the check can be removed and still boot. I have no idea if it's a big deal. What I do know is that in 12b booted just fine with a 10a aboot. This tells me that 12b roms are satisfied by earlier aboots. Presumably because they are identical other than a version number.

So...if we're on the rooted/debloated 12b, can we flash this over? I wouldn't mind trying to avoid the whole wipe/revert to stock thing if I can help it. Thanks!
In theory one only needs to dd the 12b aboot from jackpotclavin instructions. Can someone try that from a stock 12b rom like Malladus 1.2.9 rom then flash this after a full wipe minus internal storage. That seems cleaner than a dirty flash over 12b. I'd also suggest dd the 2.7.0.0 twrp after the aboot upgrade to ensure that it's aware of the new aboot.

We need a bootstack, not a ROM, you must use kdz/tot method.

I dont know if you mean you have 12B kdz/tot already or just using a 12B ROM on older bootstack. For easy understanding, what's your last kdz/tot ROM version. If its 12B then you're good to go.
@ ALL: for those unsure what you're doing (or currently have), you should flash 12B tot/kdz instead of messing around with different ROM combination.
I flashed according to the OP's instructions and it's been sitting at the white Verizon splash screen for a few minutes. The LED is fading from blue to green. Is this normal? I'd think, if anything, it'd hang up at the LG screen.

Totally new to the G2. I previously had a Galaxy S4. I have the 24A build. Rooted with TWRP v2.7.0.0 I was able to install beanstalk and Resurrection but not carbon or pacman (boot loops). Is there some kind of patch I need to flash with certain roms? I did some searching but with my grandson tugging on my arm all the time it is difficult at best finding time to research.

Because your bootstack is 24A, you can only run roms that are using the 24A source code underneath. That would be any stock based KK rom. There is a Carbon beta in the thread that will work also, you just can't use the nightlies until they are updated.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52376271&postcount=444
Most of the AOSP based roms are using the drivers/kernel from the older JB source that was available at the time, to go back to one of them, you need to downgrade your bootstack on your phone to 12B.
The devs should start moving all their roms to use the 24A/KK source now that is available, it will just take some time.

I just got my Verizon G2 2days ago and was able to root but all the threads that I find are confusing. I need a custom recovery to start flashing ROMS but don't know what to install. I have searched. How can I install TWRP 2.7.0.0?
Thanks
Mario

Other question how do I know if I have a full 24A bootstack already. I got the phone 3 days ago. I installed the 4.4.2 update (2 updates) and then I rooted and installed the last recovery. I am ready for flashing but I don't know if I have 24A bootstack. Can anybody clarify? I am new to LG world coming from the Galaxy S4, S5 and then HTC One M8. I am liking better the LG G2.
Thanks
Mario
If you took the OTA to 4.4.2 you're on the 24A bootstack. You're all set. When you start flashing ROMs be sure they are for 24A before you flash. If they're not they won't boot without the 12B radios.
Great! I can't wait to start flashing. Thanks! Any recommendations on ROMs?. I like stock look but is a little slow. I guess if I have the same system just faster I would be happy.
Thanks again. Enjoying my new forum and phone so far.
Best

For 24A we have the stock based ROMs. Like Malladus, Cloudy and a few others. AOSP for 24A is currently Carbon, there's a CM11 build for 24A in the VZW development section. C-Rom, Resurrection Remix and Mahdi. Which I highly recommend, so much closer to AOSP than CM and the others as dr87 pulls in stuff from the N5 to make our G2 as awesome as possible. Personally its my favorite. I'd keep an eye on the thread and wait til the next build for that one though. Should be coming soon.

Good info to start. I have work to do now. Will be around for a while. Thanks!! :good:
Here's the 26A Stock, Rooted, Debloated ROM.
Full ROM was not possible as it would not flash. Was too big.
You need to be on a custom recovery to flash this.
Only tested being on 24A with Freedom Tools to get custom recovery.
Used 24A kernel to get this to boot thank to dr87.
Dev's feel free to use this to get a working kernel that activates Knock-ON. Just credit. Thanks

KNOCK ON-CODE FIX:
Use Dorimanx's kernel to enable knock code:
Flash from recovery: This works even though it says no know code on file. I tested....

4.4.4 kitkat and Advance Calling 1.0 features via VoLTE are responsible for the size this large
Yeah, I have knock on also when I flash Dorimanx 7.7 with "No Knock Code".
My baseband still says 25B though, but my software version is 26A.
Everything works otherwise. Thank you MicroMod--saving me from KDZ back to 24A to take OTA
Good to see you around still Micro. Ill play with this rom over the weekend.
I just upgraded to 26A, baseband, kernel, etc. through the "System Upgrade" in Settings, and made a debloat zip (flashed in twrp) for myself to remove the bloat. Knock-on works fine on 26A kernel. It's much quicker than flashing a whole Rom.

You might want to check the udpater script and remove some of the lines...I have it remove all the GApps because they can be downloaded from the Play Store, plus I don't like GApps residing in /system; it's just a personal preference.

What ROM are you on?
I've tested it and I'm running it now and it works great. Use KitKat baseband and boot loader and latest twrp before flashing.
(I edited this post because it first I was asking if anyone tried it but I've tried it myself now and it works)

I've tested the ROM myself and it's running great on my vs980. Very fast and smooth. Doesn't have all the same g3 goodies like dual window and 4k/slowmo video but xcam does work on it so it takes care of that part. I'm really liking it so far and can't wait to see what can be done with other Roms now that there's one working already

I have been using this for about 12 hours now and so far so good. I am on the 27a bootstack and did not have any issues flashing this ROM. Ironically I have tried every function but actually making a phone call. The only app that would not work for me was QuickBoot so I switched over to BootDroid. The other quirk I noticed is that it states T-CDMA 64 instead Verizon Wireless at the bottom of the notification screen.

hi guys, noob here. I am on vs980 stock 4.4.2 on 26A baseband and twrp 2.8.3.1. As I am already on KitKat baseband, can I flash this rom? And to revert back to stock can I just flash the backed up rom from recovery?? Thanks.
Does this ROM have any MMS or roaming issues?
Hows battery life?
I'm helping a friend out with his phone (a VZW LG G2), and I was just curious why no one posted this over in the Android Development section? Would have expected to see a thread there for all the QnA and possibly any issues related to running it on a VS980. I'm going to help him flash this tomorrow, I will report back with our findings.

I'd HIGHLY recommend against this. This is no normal ROM, it replaces boot partitions with custom modified ones for the korean g2. If you know everything about what's up with the bootloader exploits, bump vs loki and the ROM then it's ok but for someone else.... Seriously, highly recommend against it. I know vs980 ota won't come soon (if ever) but the d802 update is just around the corner and then we'll have normal ROMs to flash for stock lollipop.
Enjoying in my g2 vs980

Yes. It always drop signal from 4G to roaming. It cannot be fixed by installing the radio pack (24A or 27A).
Can anyone help?
