CWM for LG-D855? - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
I just made up my mind to root my G3, but i can't seem to find CWM recovery for my phone!
Thx in advance!

no proper custom recoverys available yet.... you can get a CWM .apk recovery but it doesn't seem great, if you wanna just wipe and flash new rom then its fine but being a .apk recovery if you bork your phone its not gonna be much help to you.
Good news TWRP is on the horizon although currently unreleased

Do you have a link?
I prefer CWM, so i will just have to use an CWM apk until my device is supported.

thanks for the recovery, could you also post which cwm recovery it is based on in the OP
Is this working with 4.4.2 roms?
Where did this come from?? A new recovery! Going to try this once I get my hands on the tablet. I wonder if it allows flashing 4.4 roms + old roms. Thank you so much! This device has a "recovery allergy", I hope this one will be fully working

You mean 4.4.2 ROMs ?
If it doesn't, it shouldn't be to hard to edit to.

Nop, 4.2.2 . I mean, it would be good for us to have the capability to switch from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2 and vice-versa without the need to change the recovery. I find myself doing that quite often :angel:
Well call me noob, but when i downloaded the file for the tf300t, it is an img type file. How do i utilize that to install this rom? Sorry for noob question. Thank you in advance.
To flash old roms on kk recovery, you can just update the update-binary in zip
Awesome! Thanks for bringing this to us. I use this on my d2spr. Great recovery btw.

How would we do that? Use the update-binary from a KitKat ROM in a JellyBean ROM?
Oh, great! So can I use this for flashing the newest roms and can I flash it on 4.2 BL? Thanks for info
i've download the file (.img).... I just go into my TWRP and flash this one or I need to flash with the fastboot command (fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery philz_touch_6.08.9-tf300t.img)
edit: ok, i've done the flash with fastboot command. Not the most powerfull GUI i've see, but the BEST by miles for the option and configuration!!!

Nice
Nice recovery, It the best Ive ever come across. I Dev for CMB ROMS, I have made a flashable zip, so you can flash it from your current recovery.... I have this posted in the Download tab of my ROM forum... Its not my recovery, all credits will be given to Phil3759 It can be linked and given away as any open source recovery, I only say this on the ok of Phil3759, If he would like me to remove it, I will... Untill I here from him.. Here is a nice and easy way to install the best recovery to date for our beloved 300... Thx as always lj
The changelog says the recovery is "Kitkat ready".
Does this mean we can use it for flashing both 4.2-4.3 and 4.4 roms?
WITHOUT having to swap recoveries when going back and forth from Kitkat to JellyBean?
Thanks...

Well I think you can just flash stock recovery back before you do that make a backup with twrp and if you have removed system apps or froze them restore them before flashing stock recovery back & then apply the updates if that is successful just flash twrp back

Well you either need to find your stock rom Inc stock recovery if it's not there you could ask for it on the thread & at some point someone might upload it. Take it you never made a stock Backup before unlocking etc.

Clockwork mod is custom recovery if you have s-off it will install it but if your s-on you will have to flash it via htboot with the Adb commands. Good guide here to have a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2711073

Not being funny there is plenty of guides on xda to help you. If you don't know if you have s-off you shouldn't even attempt the Adb commands or flashing anything as you could end up with a expensive paper weight. Before you do anything else read the XDA threads on the m8

For me, being fairly new, was to use the CyanogenMod installer. It does all the work for you, then you can flash whatever Rom you like.

When it's done, root again and reinstall custom recovery.

Oxygen Os fails to install the OTA when detected root ot any changes to system patrition, thus you have to wait for the full zip and dirty flash over the existing. Fairly simple.
I can still do a nandroid backup and restore stock OxygenOS, correct?

You can clean flash. It is a full zip. I have restricted access to it now as I don't see anyone getting the OTA. So, it might be a mistake build. Lol.

No, you need to flash the stock recovery.img in fastboot first and then you can flash the zip in recovery/flash from local.

At least you have a problem that can be solved I posted a request for the stock recovery.img so maybe will upload it.
lol i guess everyone got excited and just installed TWRP off the bat, now that i have learned to pull .img files, its too late for me since i installed twrp instead of booting up, there has to be someone who had done it, i wonder why no is providing it, its a simple task.

Back to OxygenOs OP3

So I made research but couldn’t find a clear answer. If I want to go back to OOS, can I just download the latest build from OnePlus site and flash it in TWRP and be all good? Or will my TWRP get replaced with stock recovery after flashing it?
Cuz I am now using paranoid android which is based on Nougat 7.1.2 but I want to give newest Oreo OOS a shot after a while.
And is it true that I don’t need anything else but the zip of an OOS? I am not planning to root or install magisk because I don’t feel like needing root nowdays.
Thanks for reading :fingers-crossed:
twrp will get replaced, you will have to flash twrp immediately after flashing the rom to retain twrp.
Hit thanks if it helps
