[ROM] D800 KitKat Manual Update with Root

AndroidUser00110001 · Feb 28, 2014

DISCLAIMER - I am not to blame if you screw up your phone. Proceed at your own risk.

Thread closed since there is an option now for stock AT&T crap with recovery and international version with recovery, with working google wallet and no carrierIQ or AT&T bloat.

International HERE

Stock AT&T HERE

YES!!! It will take a long time to flash...did not hang. Just needs time

I will have custom ROM up later tonight.

I will have custom ROM based on International version once it is released and I can get my hands on the KDZ or TOT. This way we do not have to deal with CarrierIQ.

Are you using the aboot from one of the 10x builds? I am pulling the ROM down now but I am concerned that installing this will update my aboot and make it so that going back to a different kernel/ROM will be difficult. I am not all that up on LOKI so perhaps this is just a dumb post :/.

What if we are on the unrooted KitKat ota? Just flash this? Or downgrade, then flash recovery and then flash this?

use lg flash tool to flash back to 10d firmware. root and install recovery. then flash this rom with supersu to get back to where you are now but with root.

when you use lg flash tool to go back to an older firmware, it replaces your aboot with that firmwares aboot. so you have nothing to worry about.

@bigfau

we need a custom KK rom from you. GOGOGO.

Zoide_ · Feb 28, 2014

Ah, OK. So if I'm running houstonn's PA ROM I can't just go into TWRP, wipe everything, and flash this ROM? I first have to downgrade to stock 10d, etc?

If you have a custom recovery just flash both rom zip and superuser. No need to downgrade unless you have stock recovery.

I just asked you this on another forum, but I don't know if you are tracking that one. Is this 100% stock ATT ROM, other than it being Flashable Zip? That's AWESOME if it is!
