hi..
thanks, this is exactly what i need.

one question though,
what about "cust.bin"?
someone said in other thread that it's needed to avoid bootloop.

This is awesome. It would be easier to flash back to stock this way then requiring a PC. Would this work for Verizon? I'd love a backup of the stock rom incase I'm t hours away from a PC and Verizon forces a bricking OTA update and leaves me completely lost and without a phone.

I am not sure it's support Verizon but I think it should work too.

    great thanks to @somboons for this guide! :good:

    I follow it and I got my Hong Kong D802 upgraded to KitKat without losing any data or settings. ;)

    As others wrote, I made these steps:
    1) Clear Cache and Dalvik Cache in TWRP 2.7.0.0
    2) Flash prepared ROM by this guide - system.img and cust.bin (anybody from HK could take my file here)
    3) Flash modem file - extracted modem_xxxx.bin from this guide, renamed to modem.img and placed in ZIP update (download link here)
    4) Flash D802 kernel from this thread.
    5) Flash superuser to root it.

    Done. That's it. No factory reset as I'm going to higher version of Android and it will automatically upgrade by self.

    hi..
    thanks, this is exactly what i need.

    one question though,
    what about "cust.bin"?
    someone said in other thread that it's needed to avoid bootloop.

    In this this:
    http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2665985

    I got bootloop then I solve problem by add cust.bin in ROM.it's work for me.
