[Q] LG GFlex 2 LS996 (Sprint GFlex 2) Cutom recovery and custom rom?

Hi,
I have a Sprint LG-Gflex2 (LS996) which is rooted. But this is my first time with a non-international variant of a phone.
I have fare share of experience with rooting and custom roms on devices : nexus one, nexus 7,Galaxy S2, Galaxy S3,HTC One X, Note 2(n7100). All were international variants.
This time around i have a non-international variant of a phone. It is unlocked and rooted running international GSM sim.
Some of these questions may sound like noob questions . But i don't want an expensive paperweight
Not much help is there for LS996 or even international Gflex 2.
If you have any experience with non-international variant, please provide input:good:
My concern is :
Does it cause any problem when installing a custom recovery on these devices? or is it same as on an international variant?
Is there any additional step required with such devices to be able to run a custom recovery and rom?
If in case i have to move back to stock recovery, will it lock the device again for international GSM?
If everything works and i am able to install a custom rom, does that mean the GSM sim will continue to work on that rom without any issues?
The ROM manager app does not list this device but still i can install 2.x or 3.x version of CWM. But does doing that from ROM manager is safe? What to do if it goes into bootloop?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There is no way to get unlock bootloader on G Flex 2, so you can't install any custom recovery or custom ROM :crying:
if your device goes into bootloop, you can try to flash kdz or tot file of stock ROM...

How to install Xposed for S5 (g900h) with custom Rom of s7

I've already rooted my s5 and installed aj's s7 edge custom rom in my mobile. So now it's working on android 6. Model number is g900h. I just wanted to ask that how do I install xposed in my mobile without removing the custom rom. I'm using twrp for the recovery. And also tell me if by installing xposed there is any possibility of losing data as Im not backing up my data. Thanks!

Dualbooting custom ROM on Samsung Galaxy s6

Hi,
I recently rooted my Samsung Galaxy s6 g920f using TWRP and Magisk v14.0. While working perfectly, I decided to dual boot a custom rom with my stock one, using dual boot patcher. However not only can't I patch the kernel for my custom Lineage os 15 Oreo s6 rom I found:
mega.nz/#F!omZF1IQJ!2bk4dxzyW8ZwluqgrH945g!p3pCyaxI (please put https:// infront of the link to make it work as I am not allowed to post urls yet as i am new)
using dual boot patcher, but I also can't install anything using the flasher. This isn't too big of an issue as I can just flash it in twrp, but as said before, I can't patch the IMG kernel and if i download it as a .zip and patch it, when I go to install it redirects me to another file I don't want to install. I have a nandroid backup, which I have downloaded to my PC. The only reason why I want to dual boot my s6 is so I can still use the gear VR, which is great fun! Please help as I can't figure it out
Thank you

My samsung galaxy s7 gets a bootloop everytime i try to flash a custom Rom

Hey!
My Samsung Galaxy S7 (SM-G930F) Gets a bootloop everytime i flash a custom Rom, obviously i backed up but still.. i have checked the rom's requirements everything!
How can i fix this?
Try a different version of TWRP? You confirmed the model # in download mode?
Use twrp 3.1.1 for Nougat Roms or 3.2.1 for Oreo.
