I just got this beauty in a really cheap price but I can't access my google account at playstore, so i decided to install a custom rom
I finally got ROOT with the KingRoot
but now, I can't find any custom rom for this specific G2 mini (D625)
Anyone has installed any recovery or custom rom successfully?
Thanks in advance!
There is no active development on the d625 because it uses different hardware. It's not like the other phone models ( d620, d618 etc.)
Ill tell you straight: picking this device up and starting to work on it would take much time and effort no one is willing to do.

Indeed.
The biggest problem of the device is that no one has figured out how to unlock the bootloader.

Hello,
I would like to know whether this smartphone will one day benefit from a specific development.
There are customs Roms such as cyanogen, Mokee or Miui, but none can claim to be accomplished.
This is a powerful smartphone for the price. It was sold to numerous copies worldwide and I feel that interested no one.
Anyway, I thank anyone who will look at the subject.
Thank you for this. I would like to know if these sources allow the development of custom roms. I do not especially like the emui interface and I looked forward to release a lollipop stock, cyanogen or miui.
Good day.

Kingo root works well
Can someone please provide a mirror for the western european stock ROM, that's not trying to Download malware.
Am I missing it or are there instructions to root and instructions for multi-boot but no ROM for the LG G Vista, please?
I've searched and read through a bunch of threads but nada ... so far.
Will any of the ROMs for other LG G-series phones work?
Thanks!
Wait ... I just looked in About phone and it says this is a VS880.
I just got this from Verizon.
I'm seeing the VS880 referred to as a G2 and a G3 on the Internet - what is it really, please?
It came with Android 4.4.2, kernel version 3.4.0+, and our son rooted it for me earlier today.
Just in case any of those details help ...

They are the same thing. One is the internal name while the other is normal users name of the device. As for roms make sure to do your reading up as the device is pretty locked down.
So, you are saying that there is no ROM anywhere for the LG G Vista/VS880?
Is there any reason to believe that anyone is actively developing one?
There are so many sites touting Rooting as a pathway to loading a ROM it seems odd there there is not one.

It takes more then root. You need an u locked bootloader or a way to bypass a locked bootloader like safestrap or bump. Most developers that make roms only make them for devices they own.
The bootloader bypass has been solved:
http://www.unlock-bootloader.info/mp3-0/lg-g-vista-6569.html
The LG G Vista/VX880 is "free" on Verizon with the $16/mo Edge data plan & has a nice big display.
I have my Samsung Tab4 7" tablet for sale as I don't need it now that I have the LG G Vista/VX880.
There are ROMs for the models all around the LG G Vista/VX880 - it's hard to believe that LG made that phone so radically different from the others that tweaking an existing ROM to port it would be beyond a developer.
Sure wish I had the skills ... sigh.
It's not really that. It's most developers seldom do ports. Let alone for devices that don't have. After looking at the spec is not a bad mid range device. But also remember that. Most carriers in the world are GSM carriers and very few work on cdma devices.
There are plenty of Tuts on how to port. Could be something you could look into

Modified request: Is there an app/hack that strips-out all of the Google stuff, especially their backdoors & data-leeching?
If no one is going to build a custom mod - which seems apparent - it sure would be good to have a clean machine onto which to then install carefully selected apps.
Thanks!

Simple answer is no. You would have to build a rom from source and then remove alot of the Google based code. There is a project that is working on it but you lose alot of functionality.

Cannot the functionality be restored via privacy-respecting alternative apps?
What about an app that monitors the bad behavior of the Google code than cannot be removed and blocks execution of data-leeching & activity monitoring?

Not completely no. Many have been trying over the years. Your biggest issue is the device your using. Once that is taken care of you can try and build something but like I said alot of the stuff is built directly into the os.
To be honest privacy is an illusion at best now a days. Every thing monitors what you do. From credit cards to social net networking. It is all made to get as much info as it can about a person. Even carriers do it. It has even come to light that Verizon can monitor the apps installed on a device.

I just re-flashed my VX880 last night to stock 5.1.1.
I can give some pointers that I had to work through if you have any questions, or have not gotten any help since last November.
I have spent many hours looking .

Many Many hours wasted on Google,Bing,ect. I haven't found anything. I have seen where some people refer to this as the same as a G2 And others but it's clearly not. But yeah wish someone would put something out. Agreed. I have however figured out how to get Viper4Android and Dolby Atmos to work. So if anyone is interested in knowing how that's done hit me up. All you have to have is root. NO custom recovery. Haven't seen a post on how to do that either? I still have 8 more to go before I can post lol.

Where did you get the rom? Do you have a copy I can get?
Hi, first android device in a very long time. Doesnt seem to be any conversation about this newly released device. Would any of the roms/mods/etc for the LG G Pad 8.0 also work for this device? Any help would be appreciated. I made a request for a device subforum but im a little unsure how else to go about getting the ball rolling.
I just got it too. I honestly don't even care about rooting. I just want stock Android. My Nexus has me spoiled.
On your side.. already unlocked bootloader and got the 128gb microsd from SanDisk for this beauty!

There's another thread which seems to be the main thread to discuss unlocking the bootloader, adoptable storage, and hopefully eventually custom recovery and root.

A little late, but maybe, still useful.
The situation is similar with G5 (some fastboot commands are missing). However, .tot method will do the trick.
That's when we get a .kdz file. Most likely when Nougat comes out. But if we can get the .hex and .bin to revive the phone....
I have the AT&T version seems very similar except mine has 32gb of storage not 16gb. Pretty sweet so far for getting it free.
The current software, V52110b, is vulnerable to all four of the vulnerabilities recently disclosed and nicknamed "QuadRooter." If someone reverse engineers the patch, it should show how to exploit the vulnerability for root.

Hi, did you got any solution for this?
No solution Yet !
same proplem!
any solution for this? please
Any solutions?
got the same problem... i hope someone have any idea...
@iamorenji You will need to port a device tree for the ROM. There's no way around it. It is a difference in software and potentially hardware as well that you will need to deal with.
For example, take the U.S. carrier-variants of the G5. For whatever reason, they don't have FM radio like the other variants like EU and perhaps the KR. I don't know whether it is not included in the hardware itself or whether it is disabled via software, but either way, you probably won't be including the Lineage FM Radio app when you build for U.S. variants.
To port for your device, you should start by forking the device trees for the officially-supported variants of the G5, like the H830 and H850. Choose the one that is closest to the F700L. Then start converting all of the configuration files, e.g. so that they use your device codename. Here is a good example of that being done in a conversion from the H830 to the RS988 (GitHub).
Search for building tutorials online and look at the building resources that other G5 developers use (local_manifests, etc.)
Good luck
What's th point of doing that, i mean if someone do the job f700l can flash h850 rom, we can't unlock the bootloader and root....
5 years ago when i got Moto g5 plus. its community was very proactive in terms of ROMs and stuff, but that is not the case here with edge 30 pro, is it beacuse the phone is not that popular or its new? coz i am thinking of getting this or the upcoming moto frontier but since moto only supports the device for 2 years, i want to root my phone and install a custom ROM on it. does anyone know if the custom ROMs will be availabe for it anytime soon, and also if anyone can make a tutorial about rooting the phone, that will be very helpful. Thanks
The phone is new, not that popular, and motorola doesnt make it easy for custom roms either. We can probably count on some more popular ROMs like LineageOS as more people get the phone and demand rises.

thank you, but i dont think lineage OS will be better than the stock moto UI, i still love my moto g5 plus due to its support. Motorola should either provide atleast 3 years of supoprt or make the unlocking and installing TWRP easier. also one more thing i didnt saw TWRP installation in the provided link is it due to Motorola being more strict??

TWRP itself is on the decline since Android 10. Magisk-patching boot manually has become the more universal rooting method.
