[Q] Stock 4.4.2 to Stock 4.2.2? - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I bought my G Pad and it came with 4.4.2 on it and it has stock recovery. Is there a way for me to flash a stock 4.2.2 rom or TWRP so I can use a custom rom?

Anyone?

Yes you can directly flash 4.4.2 even if you are coming from 4.1.2 ROM,only thing you'd need is MJ5 bootloader (it's the last known bootloader that is KNOX free and works perfectly with 4.3 and 4.4.2 Touch wiz rom as well 4.4 AOSP ROM .You need MJ5 bootloader basically to have Wifi Working.Some people managed to get it working by staying on old bootloader and only flashing Dr.Ketan's wifi fix but in either case you don't need to upgrade to official 4.3 to flash 4.4.2.If you upgrade to stock 4.3 from samsung you will have Knoxed bootloader which will prevent downgrading to 4.1.2.So if you think you'd ever want to go back to 4.1.2 ROM then you shouldn't upgrade to stock 4.3 and just flash custom roms (after flashing the mj5 bootloader).I can provide you download link and instructions for MJ5 bootloader which can be flashed after upgrading your ROM to 4.3 or 4.4.2.Make sure you have a backup of your 4.1.2 ROM along with EFS PARTITION(that's a must) and then proceed ahead with flashing new ROMS.

Ofcourse you can i've run cm11 while I was still on 4.1.2 rooted stock rom.Root your 4.4 KK TW rom first, make a backup plus efs backup (if not already made) then clean wipe, flash the CM11 rom dont reboot your phone, flash the gapps then reboot system.Done.

If you want to go with an AOSP ROM, just flash it (per the instructions, of course).
For a stock based (Touchwiz), you should be able to just flash it, then flash a custom kernel (exact instructions should be in the OP).
If you have to, you can upgrade your bootloader, but I wouldn't worry about that til you have to...
I know the AOSP rom instructions.
For touchwiz i reinstall stock rom ma4 but i try the OTA and say no updates for me

4.4.4 or 4.4.2

I recieved my phone last week and did the update then root and twrp. I see that some roms are 4.4.4 but my phone still says 4.4.2 .. Why is this ? Was the update I did not to go from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4? Is there 4.4.4 out now for G3? I am with TMO
There are two different types of roms for our phone, Stock(LG) and AOSP(cyanogenmod,deviantxone, etc). Your likely on the LG stock rom, which at the moment is only 4.4.2 . AOSP based roms are on 4.4.4

Not unless you load a custom rom based off aosp 4.4.4. There is currently no lg g3 on stock 4.4.4. Lg will likely skip 4.4.4 and go right to 5.0 or at least that's my hopes they will.

One can only hope, more likely they will just announce another phone that will launch with 5.0. What I am holding out for its our aosp roms to get Bluetooth and camera before I switch to one of them as my daily.

Maybe you will be happy with cloudy rom for lg g3 (pure stock, with lg g4 features…)

Thanks,
Can i flash directly from twrp the 20w stock rom considering that i have a custom kernel and a custom rom lollipop installed?
If you want to return the stock rom (not cloudy one, stock g3) you cant flash it from twrp but if you want to use the cloudyg3 rom, you can flash it from twrp but you also need to do wipe from twrp

Yes you can flash 20w from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/stock-t2961073
directly from twrp even with custom kernel.
That zip comes with its own kernel. Ofc you still need to wipe cache and data.
Don't mind what the guy above said, it seems he didn't even read prevoius post.
And just so you know the ROM above is rooted as well. If you wish complete unroot as well go restore via kdz or unroot with SuperSU.
