I'm trying to make a flashable zip that doesn't involve an apk, but sadly most of the guides/tools i find relate to apks. Is there a guide that will work for any file?
I don't know how to make them, but I do have a blank one you can use to look through of you like. I too would like to know how to handle the updater-scripts so I have a better understanding.

Yeah, I have some blank one's too. The updater scripts seem to be my issue as well. I miss the old days of just being able to create a zip without all the fuss of those scripts.
what exactly are you trying to do?

I would wait before applying any updates though, especially if you're rooted.
I went ahead and updated, I really need to Mobile Hotspot to work correctly, hopefully this will fix it...

Hey guys/gals,

Try this. Flash a working vzw rom. Then do a dirty flash of r85 custom install and select bypass activation option. See if data works then please.

Platt,
What is the r85 supposed to do? I flashed another vzw rom and then the r85, the data came right up,but it doesnt seem like the r85 does anything...I didnt notice any changes after I flashed.

So say I flash our stock OTA deodex, then r85, should I boot inbetween flashes?
It is my understanding that r85 is basically a patch weighing in a 32mb, is that correct?
I loved SynergyRom on my S3, it would be amazing to get it on my Note 2.

MJ4 NATIVE HOTSPOT! (odex/deodex)
This is a working hotspot mod.
Thanks @wwjoshdew for the how-to video!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdC_a5_ehWY
replace services.jar in system/framework.
THIS IS THE DEODEX version.
currently based on freeza's mj4 deodex stock rooted services.jar (thanks @freeza)
mod based off JoshBeach's previous work http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2481448 (thanks @JoshBeach)
it appears the offsets had changed preventing the mi5 version from running. hopefully this fixes that. it appears the new offset is at line 6680.
THE VERSION IN THIS POST IS FOR STOCK ROOTED DEODEXED MJ4 ONLY! SEE POST BELOW FOR ODEXED VERSION
ODEX VERSION:
for those who don't want the screen animations or other tweaks,
this is a stock odex mj4 with the hotspot activated.
not a flashable zip. unzip.
works while keeping knox 0x0
just use a file explorer or adb to copy files into system/framework.
make sure r/w permission for /system is set.
rename old files or make backup first.
Edit.
If renaming the old files you must change the ending or your phone will hang.
So file.end becomes file.end.bak
Or file.old or whatever.
Services.jar to services.jar.bak is ok.
Services.odex to services.odex.bak is ok
Not fileback.end
Services.jar to servicesbak.jar is not ok and will hang your phone.
If you leave the .jar or .apk or.odex on your orig file it will still try and load. Causing a bootloop.
This can be fixed with adb. Look at pages 5/6
I'll give it a shot and report my findings.

Thank, for this! I'm in an area, with barely enough data bandwidth to reply to this post, so I can't test, until a little later.
You know, it would have been ridiculous, for you to have to download the entire rom, just for that one file. I don't understand how you can offer to help, but no one else wants to offer, just the tiniest bit of support, for something THEY requested.
Again, thanks!

Sorry you are the man. Lol you more than welcome to delete this thread. I just really went through this because I couldn't find a mj4 stock odex version yesterday and saw people were still asking for it. Figured you were busy and hadn't gotten to it.
thats also part of the problem with the sticky in my opinion no one knew it was updated and mj4 was up.
also still need a odex version which ill try and get to shortly.

Thanks man! seems to be working. I agree that having things all in that mega thread gets a bit confusing. I like the separate threads.
Ok now that it seems to be working for people I'll build up an odex version when I get home in a couple hours.

Use a file explorer with root access to copy into the system/framework folder.
Make sure to set permission to r/w.
I use es explorer
Others use root explorer.

Just be careful the couple versions before this locked my phone up. This one looks right and I think I got it working. But it may still lock up at boot screen.
I was able to adb back in though without flipping a knox flag or anything.

So with the KK update LG changed the way the G2 is locked down. Been messing around with some stuff and just was able to get around the standard recovery and was able to boot into the more normal Android recovery. I think from here I can build a custom recovery that may work...
Who knows if it will work and not sure when I will be done with it so don't ask for ETA...
So, when will we have this? Jk...thank u for your hard work. Much appreciated.

I first noticed it when I was making flashable KK update zip when I screwed something up. Was surprised too see a recovery like that. This is my new recovery now and I am able to boot with it and bypass the regular LG recovery setup and can also boot into this recovery.

So basically you do what every member on this forum only wishes they could do . G2 is SWEET though, I dont see myself getting another samsung for a while. I was hoping for the S5 but that let me down.
Anyways back to topic, I haven't made the jump to KK yet (mainly because I'm working 11 days in a row) but if they can work out a recovery for it I will be very happy
Stock recoveries will be allowed through the 4.4.2 bootloader check. Custom recoveries are not allowed because they pass through the aboot and if they are not 100% stock you are dropped into fastboot. Sorry man, this idea won't work.

He's already made a flashable KK with root access for D802 & D800.
I was also able to get into that recovery while messing with something. It was one time though. In read in Gibhub of Loki that LG has patched for Loki exploit but he used the previous aboot but that was just for an OTA. https://github.com/djrbliss/loki/issues/44

I am not an Android Dev but how much work would it be to just create a g2 framework package that would overlay on a source aosp rom? Lg ui isn't some mystical New rom is just an overlay. Very involved but I see other people exporting the Sony ui to other roms. It might be easier than trying to find an exploit that might not exist
