True, installing a custom recovery is complex. This makes it dummy free.
I have an auto click tool also for JackpotClavin 24a kk hack for twrp also, but its so dang dangerous it could brick your phone. It writes partitions.

Maybe this is a dumb question. But since we have used the upgrade path via Malidus and its "prep" flash (which was 24a baseband and partitions). When other Roms are developed for true kit Kat on our devices (also eventually) will we be able to flash from where we are at considering for all intents and purposes we are on the 24a baseband?

There's a way to have the auto script check the MD5's after copying to the phone, but the coding is so complex I could not figure it out.
This guy here did it for the Spectrum, which we could alter his coding and make it for G2. Maybe JC can look at it.

We don't know. Probably not and would have to take the same approach again flashing those higher partitions to make the radio work with any new rom.

Thank you for this!! As a new G2 owner this will help me a lot. Am I correct in assuming this is the same procedure followed by tools like Flashify? i.e. copy the Lokified recovery image to device.
Looking in the zip, this is TWRP 2.6.3.4. So after this, to get to 2.7, we can get the official TWRP flashable zip, boot into recovery and flash that. Since I don't believe a Lokified 2.7 exists. Right?

Everything has to be lokified. If it isn't it can potentially brick your device. I've been on this same recovery twrp for all my testing and building of roms and never had a problem.
These are one click tools. Just do the steps on 1st post.

Does it install TWRP 2.7? The line in the batch file says 'echo [TWRP 2.6.3.4] for LG G2 by Wootever modded by MicroMod777' which is why I'm asking.

Dhacker29 and anyone else here don't have a crystal ball to tell when its going to meet everyone's personal "daily driver" standards.

No one is going to help you out much because you didn't even read the first post. There are step by step instructions including the definition and what safe strap is and does. Oh. Welcome to the community.
P.s. their are threads on new users of this type of way of installation. Hope its not coming off harsh.

Sorry for my lazyness. I couldn't view the link about safestrap because I'm at work and the site is blocked. I probably should have mentioned that in my post. I'll just check it when I get home. As far as step by step instructions, I was referring to the whole installation of CM10, rather than just the installation of safestrap
You said "Their are threads on new users of this type of way of installation". I've read over that a few times and don't quite understand what you mean. I haven't dug super super deep into these forums but I didn't see any threads about how to install CM10.
Thanks for the help
What if I:
Nandroid backup via safestrap
Install this on my xt925 to test
Is there a possibility to perma-brick or have a screwed up radio that I wouldn't be able to fix? I want to flash and play with it, but only if I can get back with a nandroid.
Actually can't I flash anything I want on a rom slot with safestrap? Can't I just go back to the stock slot at anytime?
---------- Post added at 07:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:18 PM ----------
Got impatient and tried it on slot 1. Nothing worked as expected, it booted but no radios or anything would respond. I just deleted rom slot 1 and I'm back to stock.
I guess my question is, how much do I have to donate to get a working version of this for the xt925?

[ROOT][5/24]Sprint One Root and Disable System Write Protection

Thanks to Dees_Troy getting TWRP working on this device, I have made an easy way to root your Sprint One and disable /system write protection.
Q&A​What does this contain?
Everything necessary to install the latest SuperSU and supporting files (su binary included)
Install latest busybox in recovery
A ported wp_mod.ko module for this kernel
A script to start wp_mod.ko
A modified boot.img - insecured (allows for remounting of /system to rw when in Android), enabled USB debugging by default, and added busybox run-parts (alows scripts to run during boot).
What is /system write protection?
HTC now keeps you from writing to /system through the kernel. When you try to modify anything in /system, you'll get a reboot. This cannot be fixed until there is source available, so this method by flar2 works wonderfully.
How is this different from this method?
TWRP's method is great, but it doesn't disable /system rw protection. This means that you will still experience issues when modifying /system when booted into Android (deleting/adding files, updating SuperSU binary, etc). I would recommend my flashable .zip method!
Can I use this if I already installed SuperSU from TWRP?
Yes, you can flash this with no issues.

What a champion among men. Fine a bit longer nap when you're done. And the good gruel!
All jokes aside, thanks a lot for all of this. Now I'm prepped for Fridays release.
How'd you get into devving anyways? Did you have previous programming knowledge or just dive right in? I really wanna get into it and I'm very knowledgeable about computers and android but I've haven't dealt with coding much(save for a few lessons on codecademy) nor have looked much into development for android. Is it difficult to say add a new setting to the stock settings or to bake in/remove an app that wasn't there or needs to be removed?
Sorry if I'm taking up your time I'm just really interested in getting into it. I've been running other peoples ROMs from lgoptimusog>htcevoOG>htcevo3d>galaxye4gt>evolte>galaxys3 not to mention tablet ROMs and I just want to make my own tailored to me.

So what fastboot commands would I use? I may make a tutorial on youtube once I get the Sprint HTC One on Friday. Rooting can be complicated, but is so much fun to do! Thanks for the fast root, I mean damn the phone ain't even out yet! So excited, as I cannot wait for Cyangenmod and PACMan ROM's. I love stock Android!

Thanks for clarifying. The FAQ question asking "how is this different from the directions for TWRP?" had me thinking this was an alternative not something that works hand in hand. Perhaps adding that clarity might help others looking in here.

Yeah, you can. If you have TWRP installed, you can flash one of the stock rooted ROMs I put out (they have this built-in), or if you want to just flash this, it's basically the same as stock Odex ROM. Your call, but I'd hop on a deodex ROM, all mods will be done for deodex ROMs.

I checked for updates before I flashed TWRP and my ROM, but there were no updates.
I have disabled OTA's on the stock builds that will be updated shortly

You won't get an OTA message, and you don't want one cause it would ruin your ROM.
And yeah, someone will get firmware up at some point.

[ROM] TweakerRom 1.1.0

The first (very mildly) customized ROM for NVIDIA SHIELD... Tweaker.
For those who tried SHIELD on launch day (or early on before the OTA was applied), it had a dashboard with bigger graphics that were easier to read. Now, it's just icons. I don't like the icons. So a little bit of hacking together pieces (and adding SuperUser while I was at it) resulted in TweakerRom.
Don't expect much difference, at least not until I get CM-10.2 done for SHIELD. But this has a nicer interface, in my opinion, and is based on the latest OTA 1.1 release (with the SHIELD UI from the original image)
You need to install a SuperUser app (I highly recommend SuperSU) but you don't need to use recovery to do it.

Reserved for Video! It WILL come.
This is great! Will flash this tonight once I can get CWRM to flash properly in fastboot...
Awesome! I'm glad to see the first step being made, but I'm going to hold out until 10.2. I'm getting lazy in my old-ish age.:silly:
Sorry BUT:
I hate to be "that guy" but could you put up a mirror or can I? These are my speeds:
and... I am getting a 850kb per second download speed.

I just finished Unlocking and Flashing your recovery when the download finished (YES I unlocked it just for this ROM). I have to say: I LOVE the interface, I never got to see it but it is SO much better! Thanks for pioneering the development over here, there isn't much at all... I plan to do some theming stuff once I get around to it XD

If you do not have the stock recovery then you cannot install the factory update. If you installed this rom you don't have the stock recovery.

All you asked was if you could get the update while having this rom. I did answer the question. Was not trying to be difficult. Next time I guess I will just say no and you figure can the rest out.

The SHIELD is a bit of an unusual exception here - most of their OTAs seem to be full system images, instead of delta patches.
While this makes the OTAs much larger, it also makes them much more robust.

I just needed some free time to do it properly. Making an international gsm firmware work fully on Verizon is a pain in the you-know-what.
I also had the motivation of wanting to fully port the G3 camera driver which I never got around to with the initial G3 port I did with Cloudy and Tangjun. I'm happy to say it was worth it. Hope you enjoy it.

Coming from CloudyG3 with TWRP 2.7.0.0 can i just perform all the steps above or would it be better to restore to stock 26a first? Wipe system? Last time I went from CloudyG3 back to stock I lost knock on and had to restore it using your hiddenmenu apk. Any idea if I can expect something similar? Willing to be a bit of a guinea pig if you think I'll have a better than not chance for success.

No need to...just follow the install directions above. The only reason you (or anyone) ever lost knock-on is because they had flashed a kernel (if it's included with the rom it's the same thing) that enabled knock code and consequently updated the touchscreen firmware. Knock code also has a framework component that LG/Verizon for whatever reason never included in their firmware...so when you came back to a vs980 stock rom you also lost knock-on due to the newer firmware not being compatible with that firmware. It's a simple as that. All that has EVER been needed to restore it is a simple 10 second procedure.
This firmware package DOES have framework support for knock-on, so I built my kernel to use it. If you switch back to a VS980 Stock rom after this, you'll need to do the touchfw update in one of the 4 different ways that have been detailed.
I flashed XDABBEB's VS98026A Boostack but my Twrp version in twrp says 2.8.0.1. Am I ok to proceed?
Edit: I serched for blastagator and found his thread for twrp. I updated to the newest that way.
I'm moving on...
@xdabbeb am I reading this correctly that it is bumped and not loki'd?

The bootstack is the same one I had posted for my 26A rom. I didn't/don't want to confuse people with having more than one bootstack zip for now while everyone transitions from loki to bump. That said, if you had just continued on to install the rom you would've noticed that the firmware zip installs the new/bumped 2.8.1.2. Just follow the steps and you'll be fine.

Another thing i notice is that the smart notice isn't working. Maybe that is why it was not preloaded on the screen.
If i want to restore my nandroid backup of CloudyG3 can i just flash cloudyfa's kk baseband then restore from twrp 2.8.1.2 or do I need to downgrade the recovery and/or bootloader?

Did you wipe data or did you dirty flash? Neither of those apps exist in mine.
Very cool! I think I will have to give this a whirl. Thanks XDABBEB!
WOW....awesome work!! I did verify that the 26a bootstack I had was the same in the OP by verifying the Md5.
Flashed this last night and nothing but praise for this ROM. Everything works great even Tap to Pay (Soft Card). This is the only G3 ROM where I have seen it work at all.

Did you need to install the RootCloak xposed module? I know that this ROM hides root, and I confirmed that in the settings, but when I start Soft Card it tells me it can't be run on a rooted device.

Yes, I installed xposed framework and rootcloak to get it to work. Also, if you are running ART you need to disable before trying to get xposed to work.
I'm so psyched this is finally coming out, I'd given up on ever seeing this ROM come out a few months ago and have been putting up with the roaming bug on CloudyG3 ever since. So glad I don't have to deal with that crap now. Thanks man.

1) Clean wipe (system, data, cache, dalvik)
2) flash this rom
3) flash LP Gapps (like PA micro or nano Gapps)
4) flash Autoprime 12B radio/baseband/modem
5) flash superSU zip (to ensure latest root, 2.46 version)
6) reboot
7) enjoy fast Lollipop CM12
By the way, very nice rom, NoIdea24 :good::good::good:

Keep in mind with updating the bootstack it will also update your radio. So make sure you flash the 12b radio or this build will constantly boot you back into recovery

i am not very well versed with everything yet. i can tell you everything i did though. when i first got the phone i ota'd to 27a, rooted via stumproot brute force, used autorec for recovery, i used cloudy2.2 with kk bootloader.
currently ive installed 12b radio and am using beanstalk 5.0..
so tbh i am not sure what bootstack i have.. maybe you can give me some insight..
thanks in advance for any feedback.

New build
New build is uploading to devhost right now at a rate of "Infinity Minute(s) Remaining @ 0 KB/s"
It will eventually compete. No major changes, just keeping the source up to date. Everything is working the way it should be. For the next build, ill probably remove the camera app and replace it with "open camera".
