HELP Please!! - Verizon LG G2

My LG G2 (Verizon/VS980) was rooted on stock OS 24A. TWRP was installed as recovery.
This phone took a software update and now it's stuck in TWRP recovery. Help please.
Root no longer matters as long as I can get an OS back running on it.
Thank you.

If you have twrp it'll be easy to get it back on. First if you made a twrp backup just restore it. If not then
Second of all do you have any Roms on your internal memory? If so just install one through twrp.
Third if u have none of those you can either side load a rom through twrp and flash it.
Or you can go back to stock using this thread which should work 100% but you'll lose any data you had on your phone including pictures and other media http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448960

There's a command you need to run to fix it, looking for it now.

NEVER take an OTA update without the stock recovery...

[Rom][10-31-11]Stock Rooted ZV4

Here is the easiest way to return to stock from Revolt or Rehomed. This is the stock system and boot.imgs. You can do it all from your phone, and you do NOT need to unroot.
What is this?
This is the ZV4 stock system and boot.img. I bascially disassembled the stock rooted system.img posted by thecubed and made it into a cwm zip.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How do I install this?
1.) Download the .zip & make sure 4g is enabled.
2.) Place zip in external sdcard
3.) I recommend to wipe data to prevent any problems
4.) Go to install zip from sdcard
5.) Select StockRootedZV4.zip
6.) Reboot
7.) Install RevoToolKit
8.) Follow instructions of replacing cwm with stock recovery
9.) After stock recovery you can check for updates!!!

Very Excited. This should make life much easier, with fewer steps. Thanks MT. All your "overtime" you are putting into this is very much appreciated.
So, say someone wasn't in 4G mode when they reflashed to stock, and did /data wipe.. and now gets "your phone needs a SIM card to activate" when back at the "select your language", etc...
I assume this is because I wasn't in 4G mode, but not sure. Any number of reboots with SIM card/battery pull/reseats or return to revolt {pick a version} roms doesn't help. I have no boot loops or freezes, just can't get past activation to do anything (other than make an "emergency call")
Would flashing with LGNPST back to the .tot file potentially get me to a better spot or is it time to visit my friends at Verizon?
Thanks mt. I will be flashing this soon. Downloading directly to the phone onto the sim card. Hopefully I can get GB and gingervolt later today!!
I've Revolted have you?? Sent via tapatalk plugin.
Sucks for me I guess. Still says there are no updates for my phone.
Am I missing something? do I need to unroot? etc

Try restoring a back up rather than flashing a zip and see if that works.

It was a good day to have 2 4G LTE devices.. was able to use SIM from Xoom and get through activation and download of V6. Then switched back to Revo SIM and all worked fine..GB/V7 is downloading as we speak and I seem to be back in business. Back on track to get to GingerVolt at some point later today Thanks!

Install RevoToolKit and then install the stock "recovery" with it. That will get rid of cwm.

This doesn't surprise me with my luck, but i followed instructions, went back to rooted v4, got rid of cwm. I was able to find the update and download it but when it booted down it got a little into the install process and gave me the yellow triangle with exclamation and booted back up normally only to see "update failed" ?????

Messed Phone Up Question About T-Mobile

I messed my phone up tonight and got it stuck in a bootloop since there is currently no RUU out I'm left with no choice but to go back to the store. Does anyone know if T-Mobile stores have the stock RUU and can restore it?

If your problem is transferring files, can you not go to recovery and use usb-ms (while attached to the computer) which will then open the memory of the phone on the computer. That's what I did to transfer stock ruu when I recently bricked my evo 4g.

I'm currently in the process of trying to push a nandroid backup to the device via adb. The problem is that there's no stock ruu for tmobile as of yet so the only choice I have is to recover via a nandroid.

no success at all, I'm gonna head to the tmobile store here in a few and see what I can get worked out
I just came back from the bell store, and they said that they could exchange me for a new one but they don't have any in stock until Tuesday.
I soft bricked my nexus devices dozen times in the past few years, and was easily restored to stock. Lesson learned by me, never root a non nexus device within 1 week of its release.

[q] verizon g2 with no recovery and boots to verizon screen help

Hey guys, this is my first post. I recently bought a rooted verizon G2(VS980)and i tried to flash a rom on it. Im a noob, so of course the worst happened.

I really need a fast fix, im having to use the good ole slll until my jewl is working again. Thanks in advance

You need to make sure your boot stack and radios are appropriate for the rom you want to flash. The G2 ROM scene is a bit fractured, since CM11 and a good chunk of derivative ROMs are still based on the 12B (4.2) OTA, but some devs are now working with the 24A (4.4) OTA.
If you can get into the bootloader/fastboot, you may be able to flash the appropriate boot stack and recovery from there, if you know what you're doing. The "cleaner" route would be to use TOT or KDZ to get back to stock, and start from scratch.

If you can't get into recovery, and only download mode, I'd probably go ahead and return to complete stock. The nice thing about this phone is it is easily rooted and rommed again if you want to do that. Plus you'll learn a lot in the process. My two cents. :thumbup:
Edit: When you return to stock, take the Ota to 4.4.2, then root.

[Q] Root for VS980 on KitKat 4.4.2?

Is there a method to root the Verizon LG G2 (VS980) on the stock OTA Kit Kat 4.4.2 build yet?
I bought the phone used, already had the OTA on it...now I just need root.
Not interested in Rom'ing, just need tethering without the $30/month charge for the few times I use it and need root to do it.
Thanks!

I'm considering a G2 also and have been wondering the same. From what I gathered you would have to go back to 4.2.2 first, gain root, and then flash back to 4.4.2. Someone correct me if I'm wrong please.

As far as that goes, how is installing the LG G2 unified drivers supposed to go? I found the download link for them in the main 200 page thread for this. Extracted the zip, but none of the .exe files do anything when run. Is that normal or is something wrong? For example I tried running InstallUSB64.exe but absolutely nothing happens.
Another more recent post on like page 185 of the thread had another download link, but that just leads to a file called "LG" with no extension and it doesn't appear to be a .zip

No you will need to root and then install custom recovery. Depending on what you are on. If you are on kitkat you can use autorec, and anything earlier you can use flashify.

I am not sure about the question but I know when you root this phone there is a trip where it will show in the lg menu that it is rooted. In order to get rid of that you will have to return to stock.

I'm having a hell of a time trying to get this thing to root. I followed all of the instructions for installing the LG device drivers and when I go to run the IOroot25 it flashes really quickly and then goes away. USB debugging is enabled and I have tried it in ethernet mode and charging mode. Both produce the same result. Do I need to remove any other drives I might have on my computer in order to get it to work? Any other ideas?

You need to be in Ethernet mode.
Once it boots into recovery, did you scroll down and select "install from adb"?

Im having problems rooting it as well. I installed the latest drivers 1.14 I believe, and when trying to root it using ioroot25 it says downgrade to a previous version.
I do have it on Ethernet mode, and it reboots it into recovery, but that's it. I select apply update from adb but again, on ioroot it does nothing after the suggestion to downgrade.
any suggestions?
Make sure your phone is setup. Debugging mode is set. Unknown sources is set. Phone is on airplane mode. Plug into computer and start ioroot25 and follow steps

can someone post the link to the newest twrp i can't find it on twrp site for some odd reason.
I think the link is in their xda thread

Actually, come to think of it. I do remember having an issue on note 3 once. It was my bosses phone and I rooted it for him and flashed recovery. But recovery wouldn't boot no matter what I did.
What it was- I had chosen a version of twrp I had known to be stable rather than the latest, but it wasn't compatible with that firmware. I ended up flashing the latest and it worked fine. Twrp moved to a new site which should be linked in the thread another poster posted. With the new lollipop firmware you probably need the absolute latest recovery. Good luck with it!

I got it fixed but I used older version of twrp. Twrp version 2.8.6.0 wasn't working for me after the lollipop update at all. I tried everything guys and nothing worked but an older version. Thanks for the help guys

I totally agree.. looks like tmobile patched the hack we do for unlimited tethering, that I used from @jovy23 tutorials... If I delete the tetherprovison.apk the tethering app doesn't work. and with this new Lollipop for some reason the wifitether and FoxFi app aren't working.
I'm just playing with it a bit. but we can always downgrade the bootloader with the actual firmware so that NK4 will work again.
waiting to see if someone else finds a way through this. I might just go back to v4.4.4 Kitkat..
I guess that was the delay with the T-Mobile Note 4 update to lollipop.
Well from what I seen is tmobile like all isp knows what you been doing online. So if they see ya been downloading at sites and ur data is not moving they gonna lock you out lol. The days of free tether are coming to a halt.
