  WARNING!

Warranty may be void of your device if you follow the procedures given on this page.

You only are responsible for your device. We won’t be liable if any damage occurs to your device and/or its components.

  GUIDE: PHILZ CWM ADVANCED TOUCH RECOVERY ON T-MOBILE LG G2 D801

Before you begin with guide instructions below, make sure your android device is adequately charged — at least 50% battery of the device.

  STEP 0: CHECK DEVICE.

To make sure your device is eligible with this, you must first confirm its model no. in ‘About device’ option under Settings. Another way to confirm model no. is by looking for it on the packaging box of your device. It must be D801!

Do not use the procedures discussed here on any other LG G2 (including the G2 variant at Sprint, AT&T and Verizon and other International variants) or any other device of Samsung or any other company. You have been warned!

  STEP 1: BACKUP YOUR DEVICE

Back up important data and stuff before you start playing around here as there are chances you might lose your apps and app-data (app settings, game progress, etc.), and in rare case, files on the internal memory, too.

For help on Backup and Restore, check out our exclusive page on that linked right below.

  STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE

Important Note: Backup important files stored on internal SD card of your device, so that in case a situation arises requiring you to do a factory reset after flashing PhilZ Touch Recovery, which might delete internal sd card too, your files will remain safe on PC.

  1. Prepare your phone:
    • Enable developer options: Go to your phone’s Settings » select About phone » Scroll to the bottom and tap on “Build number” seven times to enable developer options.
    • Enable USB Debugging: Open phone’s Settings » select Developer options » Tick the “USB debugging” check-box (under Debugging section).
  2. Connect your phone to PC with a USB cable and if a pop-up screen shows up on phone asking you to Allow USB debugging for the computer, make sure you tick the checkbox and tap OK.

  3. Extract the installer file T-Mobile LG G2 D801 One-Click-PhilZ recovery installer.zip (using 7-zip free software, preferably). You’ll get the following files, and one folder:
    • api (folder)
    • 1-click-philZ-recovery-installer.bat
    • adb.exe
    • AdbWinApi.dll
    • AdbWinUsbApi.dll

  4. Double-click/Run the ‘1-click-philZ-recovery-installer.bat’  file and follow the simple on-screen instructions like ‘Press any key to continue..’ to install PhilZ Touch Recovery on your T-Mobile LG G2.
    └Note: In case the script gets stuck on < waiting for device > (see image below) for more than a minute or so, then it means you don’t have proper drivers installed on your computer for your T-Mobile LG G2. Follow the drivers installation guide provided above for troubleshooting driver and other connectivity issues.

  5. Your device will automatically boot into system. To boot into your newly flashed PhilZ Touch Recovery:
    • Power off your LG G2 and wait for 6-7 seconds after display is off.
    • Press and hold these 2 buttons together: Power + Volume Down.
    • You will see Factory Reset mode. This won’t actually wipe your device. So, press Power button twice.
