Can anybody that got the ota that is rooted download terminal emulator, type su and hit enter, then type reboot recovery and hit enter. I want to see if Verizon/LG removed the stock recovery again, or if it boots into recovery. If it does boot into recovery, does it say "KOT49I.VS98024A test-keys" on the second row?

How do you install the Verizon software update tool? I saw someone say just plug your phone in but it didn't work,for me?

The following was posted on another thread.
"1. Open device manager.
2. Have your phone set to MTP
3. In device manager you should see mobile devices,
4. Under mobile device it should say LG VS980 etc..
5. Right click it and select uninstall, check the drivers box as well
6. Unplug you phone and plug it back in.
7. You should now be prompted on what you would like to do, select install Verizon software.
The LG mtp cable is not required. I use an after market cable. If does not work you need an after market 5 pin usb cable. Many are only 4 pin."

You can't root of you kdz with that, right?
Guess it's almost time to go back to 12b -- to root and upgrade. Then I guess I'll use the CM unofficial on 24A.
I'm pretty happy with latest nightly on 12b too, though. Heck, most all of the official nightlies have been good to me.
Makes it hard to pull the trigger.

Sorry, missed earlier post. I didn't know ioroot25 could be used. You guys work fast. Makes the decision an easy one lol
VS980 - CM11 nightly
This update is really pissing me the hell off. I can't get the LG/Verizon software Upgrader to recognize my G2. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers a couple times (with multiple PC and phone reboots along the way), I've used 3 different USB cables (including the one that came with the phone), I tried downloading and installing the drivers direct from the LG website, and I'm pretty much out of ideas.. My computer recognizes my phone in every way EXCEPT in the Software Upgrade program. I'm back on 100% stock software, unrooted. I can't for the life of my figure out what is wrong.
Little help, please?
Little help, please?
Did you try changing the way the phone interprets the USB connection in settings? (Internet, mtp, etc)

Your not the only one. I've spent hours messing with it and still no luck. Does the same thing mine is doing it just won't see the phone. At this rate I'll get the ota before I figure it out

I just finally decided to use the manual one and stick with it. Im to use ioroot25 for root and be on stock 4.4.2. I'm done waiting when it's right in front of me. Hopefully other updates (if there even are any) come quicker than this one. (its on part 2 installing right now) hopefull kitkat is worht it because i dont feel like going back to jelly bean again

Is the brand new ota from verizon the same exact build we have had here? Or are there little changes

The consensus from the devs is that it is the same.

When streaming a station or music it will randomly stop mid song with a playback error, I saw another user complaining of the same issue here.

I noticed this too immediately after updating to kit Kat. My music stopped twice in a 10 minute drive.

30Currently updating....at 36%. Will let everyone know how it goes.
EDIT: Step 2/2...at 40%. Slow but still going.
EDIT2: OK. It worked. I think I might want to go through the whole process again to determine exactly what steps were necessary, however, b/c I kind of threw everything at it at once on my last try. It may have to wait for morning, though, as it's 2:30am here and I'm a little faced.17Hey guys. I'm up, but desperately need coffee and something greasy to eat first.
@JackpotClavin I'll get dumps of system, boot, tz, rpm, and modem. If you want a few specific dirs from system send me a pm.
@koftheworld yep, that was where i was stuck before I went out. I'll definitely write up a guide after I revert and go through the process again. Do you guys want it in here or a new thread?17
