You may wanna start by putting this in the T-Mobile LG G2 section.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-g2
Usually you need to stick to roms that are marked for your model number.

Sorry I missed that part, if it's a VS980, any rom marked to work on a VS980 should flash fine. Just keep an eye on what baseband is required, some still only work on the older JB baseband (certain AOSP roms), I'd avoid those personally.

You call also flash other variants to the vs980 there is a thread on xda about it. There's a patch that needs to be installed first though

The only way to MAYBE flash ROMS is still in ALPHA testing and it is not a true flash but a way to load ROMS and fake the boot system.
Currently there is no way to flash ROMS to this phone.

From what i saw in the thread about safe strap the ROMS have to be tweaked to work with safestrap so only ROMS developed around safestrap will work.. Even then it is still iffy if they will fully work.

Solarenemy68's reply seemed easy to understand to me. Are you having difficulty understanding it? In case you did not understand it...you can NOT flash ANY rom on the att N3. None. Zip. Nadda. Nothing. The bootloader is locked. Without an unlocked bootloader, you are not currently able to flash a new rom. If you do, you will brick your N3. Period.
If you want to flash new roms on a N3, you should have purchased a T-Mo N3 as that bootloader was not locked.
I hope this clarifies things for you.

Wow! Bad day at work?
We can flash roms using safe strap recovery by @Hashcode . It works fine and even gives you "multi boot" that most devices would die for!
Roms are coming already and things are getting good. International roms can be ported. T-Mobile roms run without much of a fuss.
We CANNOT flash bootloader, kernels, or modems. But with a locked bootloader this is about as good as it gets.
If your going to give someone information, at least give them correct information.

Didn't have a bad day. Didn't intend to sound rude. Your signature indicates that you have a N9005 not a N900A. If I am mistaken, please correct me. I've had a N900A since launch day and have been following the development quite closely, I thought. While the N9005 and the N900T have unlocked bootloaders, I have not seen anything other than alpha testing for the N900A, and @Hashcode has not yet released Safestrap for the N900A.
Please post some links for loading roms onto the N900A, or apologize as it is you that seems to be providing the incorrect information that can potentially damage someone's device. If you are correct about SAFELY flashing roms onto the n900A, I will post an apology to you and the OP.
Thank you.

I do indeed apologize. SS became available on the 16th and the first flashable rom became available yesterday. I missed both.

#1 This is the wrong forum to post in, this forum is for development projects. This belongs in the q and a forum. #2 26a IS the newest kdz. Flashable ROMs don't come in kdz form... The post conveys some sense of urgency, though I have no idea what over. You didn't mention any problems. If you want to flash custom ROMs, root, get a custom recovery and make sure you have the right bootloader/baseband/recovery combinations before continuing. Otherwise... You're good.
the problem there are no custom room working in my mobile i try many room but there is nothing always coming stuck and i back to old one give me one of the room are testing and working for vs980 lg g2

You need to make sure your running b the right baseband and boot loader. If you flash a lollipop ROM you need to be on 12b bootloader and modem. If your trying b to flash a stock KitKat ROM then you need the 26a bootstack. Whatever Rom your trying to flash just make sure it's in verizon lg g2 android development section and read full op and how to install listed in op and you should be fine. Considering you posted your question in the development section I'm gonna assume you haven't read anything. So do that first

there's no such thing on a nexus device as custom roms for different carriers. they are all exactly the same, and will work on any carrier.
So you're saying I can use any Rom on this phone? Since there are custom Nexus 6 roms for T-Mobile and AT&T here so that's my question?

Doesn't matter. I've run the T-Mobile on Sprint. Only radios will have a role in your reception.

No, you only flash a radio once. Unless you want to use a different one. Find the one that works best for you and keep it.

You have to downgrade to KitKat, root with towelroot, then upgrade with root, I've described the process in the following post:

You can root your phone, it just takes a little work. Make sure to back up anything important because internal storage will be wiped at one point

There aren't any fully working 5.0.1 ROMs for this phone. There is one in this thread, but it breaks camera as far as I understand:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-active/general/golden-eye-v52-s4-active-wip-t3094259
Also thanks to the stupid locked bootloader, any rom for this phone has to be touchwiz-based (i.e. able to run on the stock kernel). No custom recovery, no cyanogenmod, no AOSP. But yeah, like that thread says, even the 5.0.1 touchwiz ROMs seem to break the camera when installed on this phone
thats what i thought thx

It is a touchwiz ROM with S6 port and it should work with your stock kernel, however to get wifi working you will need to have matching modems, kernel and files from /system/etc/wifi of the same firmware
let me look and see if anyone has these matching drivers per say for the hardware on here i think i saw someone posted it awhile back for my device thx

Have you disabled signature verification (not sure if this option is available in flashfire - assuming that you are using flashfire to flash the ROM)
I did some checking on AT&T models and I was quite surprised that S4 AT&T (i337) users are using my WizCyan ROM for S4 on their device with the imperium kernel without any issues. If that is the case, I cannot see any reason why my ROM will not work on your device. I have my own kernel compiled from I9295 TW kernel sources with almost the same commits as the imperium kernel (there are previous ported versions of imperium kernel on my kernel thread as well) included in the ROM.
I don't know if I am missing something....
Since my bootloader is locked i cannot add toggle signature verification sorry to troll a old phone but my s6 edge plus is broke and dont have the money now to replace it but i appreciate all your guys help ....i have used flashfire and dont see a option to turn off sig verification either wish i could then perhaps it would work...btw my model is atat i537 so maybe the i337 works but mine dont not sure why

Sprint is one of the carriers that doesn't publish their KDZ. So to get sprint 10 you'd have to find in one of the threads where someone backed up their 10 version and you could flash their backup. But be aware there are some partitions that people mistakenly backup that have their imei and s/n in them. U don't want to restore those partitions or you'll lose your imei etc.
But, why do u want sprint firmware on your phone? You're in Bangladesh, there is no Sprint there? I'd look at cross flashing to a different rom, usually you'd want one of the 'Open' versions, that has the bands that you need. If u decide to do that, look in the cross flashing threads for how to accomplish that.
