[TOOL/REDIRECT] LGExtract

Hello LGP920 users, I don't have this phone (I own a 970), but, I'm working in a tool that can help you guys too.
The purpose of the tool is to extract the files .bin / .fls from the .kdz files, to use the tool SmartFlash.
I don't know if this kind of topic (duplicated) is allowed, but, is a tool for "all" lg phones.
For now its really useful for P920 and P970, because we can flash files bin / fls with SmartFlash tool.
Other phones has different file structures...
Check it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24083497
I'm not copying and pasting the text here, because I'm editing the another thread.
Please report any errors there.
Thanks.
PS: Moderators, sorry for anything

Thanks, certainly these tools are useful for developers.

Did you tried extract another file? or a kdz?
Your problem seems to be with Microsoft Enhanced Cryptographic Provider.
I will made some changes at the code to handle errors better and provide more details.
You should wait for the next update.

No problem at all. Just trying to help
Just to help me understand the cause of your error.
What is your operating system?

With LGExtract, roms can be prerooted even if the Megatron root exploit is fixed Thanks a lot

Hi guys, going off another thread I didn't find this thread using search so just popping in the search word extractor so the next poor bugger doesn't get flamed for not using search
Tool is great and will help a lot when we get the next rom we can root but has a better baseband

Nice, good to know.
Please check the output files in a hex editor to see if it make sense.
If the file has some headers (boot, recovery, lgdrm, divxkey, fota, system, etc...)

If you can find out, could you post what modem/baseband processor is used in these devices: P920, P925G, P970 ?
This info should be available in the Service/Hidden Menu and in the modem firmware file. Look for "Qualcomm", "Infineon", "x-gold"...

New Optimus 3D - Updating Firmware Problem!

Hey guys,
My friend has bought a brand new LG Optimus 3D but when you turn it on it goes to Updating Firmware page but the bar does not move at all. When I plug it into the computer the LG Software Updater isn't picking it up and it isn't showing in My Computer. However, if I hold volume button and plug in USB cable it shows up but Lg Software Updater says it is the latest version and doesn't need to be updated.
Any ideas as to how to fix this? My friend just wants Stock Firmware etc, no fancy custom ROMs for her.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Cheers

use offline firmware updater and flash v21e.

Excuse my ignorance mate but what is offline firmware updater? I've done a forum and Google search and cant find a result.
Is this tutorial what you mean, or is there something simpler?
edit: I found this guide to flashing as well. It all seems quite complicated compared to my Galaxy S3 - is this the only way to do it?
Also, is the v21e from this thread okay for an Australian phone? And do I have to flash the baseband as well?
Thanks for your help! Much appreciated

OK So I downloaded a .kdz file and tried to use LGExtract and LG-P970 ROM CONVERTER but I end up with a .bin file (550MB) and a fls file (8171kb), but Smartflash is asking me for a DLL file and a .bin file.
Is there a way of changing the fls file to a BIN file or something? If not, how do I flash the fls using Smartflash?
Any help would be much appreciated as I'm very stuck on this one!!
Cheers

just open a teamviewer session i ll show you how its done

OMG!!! If you could write a tutorial it would help so many people. Me included as I am just not able to get the 21E baseband inspite of so many step by step instructions available!!
I gave up after trying for approx 30 hrs!!!

edit :; I have not tried this..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1629307&highlight=bootloop
will try now

keep trying guy:fingers-crossed:

Step 1
download
V21e kdz file
Step 2
download this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=887870&d=1328537753
Step 3
make sure you have installed your lg phone drivers before continuing to the next step
Step 4
unzip LG_KDZ_FW-Update_OfflineFix.zip
you will find a filename Automatic Offline Procedure.vbs
run it
if everything runs ok it will take you to the upgrade tool if not it will probably show you a windows script host error
if that happens try running it manualy from folder
LG_KDZ_FW-Update_OfflineFix
KDZ_FW_UPD_EN
KDZ_FW_UPD.exe
when KDZ_FW_UPD.exe shows up select Type: 3qct and PhoneMode: Emergency
select your downloaded kdz file , now you should take off you battery , connect the usb cable , press volume up and after 10 sec release the buttons and put the battery
Press Launch software update
It will take some time to decompress the files but if everything is ok it will start.
You will see the progress with various messages the last message ends with 0
That should do the job.. Dont forget to press Thanx button if it works.
Good Luck

Here is some guide as i faced problem to go back once from future 3.0 and the other time i installed drake v1 and it changed to d838 so when i tried to install tot it gave me error like crossDL so i figured it out after alot of search that how to go back to my stock 4.4 and now I want to share this method with you people, it may help some those who are really stuck in there. It's my own effort so if you find it helpful then plz appreciate.. thanks.
Steps to follow:
1. Download Winhex software: https://mega.co.nz/#!IUFnRRBb!JlQpWk_PiQ5NIpE2Pc7y7ovRuv3Fx-slT0A3W7ARpMc
2. Extract it and open it and there will be folder inside winhex. its pre-installed app so you don't need to install it just open folder and run the application and it give some message that you can not save larger file with evaluation version.. just open and click on help and then register option then a dialogue box will be opened and past the key you will find in the main folder text file named with "key". it will be registered version now you can open your tot file and edit it.
3. Open your tot file and click on edit and then on find then search for word "F350" and you will be there. Just change the last word with "L". if you have F350K than K with L and if you have F350S then S with L. if you want to go back from future 3.0 rom and change whole letter with "D838" and remove last digit by putting 00 on left column. you can see the pics for guide.
4. Now save the file and with this file flash your lg g pro 2 and for that i m sure you guys already have guide to flash tot file otherwise you can search for it..

Can this method be used for my phone which is now on Future ROM, but originally is D838 32GB?
I just need to get the tot file?

There is easy way to go back on stock for d838 model.. Use kdz method..
Secondly i didn't check on d838 model but u can check by using tot file n tot flash method.. Just search for F350L tot file.. I guess its available online.. Then u can try if it works may b it work but i m not sure..
Thirdly its my guess.but u can check if d838 firm can be edited then.edit that file and change it to f350L then use it through kdz method..
But u have to check it at ur own risks..

yes orsonwang eventually did the same tot method to get his phone back that give more confidence in this method. you can check this as this modification works for all tot files.. if it works i hope it will go beyond 80% and then its ok even at the end it gives error on flash tool because in my experience it didn't able to make to 100% not even a single time but it worked for me.. you can check if didn't start flashing then you have you current at least and if it started then hopefully it will go beyond 80% and i hope it will work but not confirmed you have to make your own mind to take risk as i have no such experience i am just guessing it might work..
Best of Luck..

Try this DLL file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58628114&postcount=32

Your tot file is original D838 or modified from F350?

LG Aristo 3 X220MA Root Search

So I just got the Aristo 3 and wanted to root it. after an extensive search I have come up empty. Does anyone know if there is a method available to use yet or maybe something is in the works? I've unlocked flashing but I cant seem to boot recovery. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Same ive spent about 6 hours researching this ive never built my own root before however i just dont have the time to do whats needed. From what i researched get the original boot rom from lg bridge and perform a restore to download the factory boot image then use magisk to rebuild the image

Hmm I'll give it a try. The phone is still new enough that I don't have much saved to it and if I brick it can take it back

should be able to just get the boot image may be the aristo 2 dev would pick this up since he's familiar with it I see you have a few posts in that forum maybe you can send that dev a message see if they would pick it up.

I eagerly await any progress in this run! My girlfriend cracked her screen on her Aristo 2 and decided that it was time to upgrade. I've never been disappointed in the idea of upgrading my phone...until it meant giving up my Aristoboy Mk.2(which was/is quite formidable)and rooted status along with it. If there is anything I might read about the process online, I would at very least consider the task myself. I am learning, but I have some decent skills and experience behind me. Please let me know if I can assist in any way. If not, I hope to see the first strides towards tackling this latest addition to the Aristo line!
My thanks to all my fellow devs here! You each make up a piece of the whole collection that make this, hands down the best forum/online community available the world over! Keep it up! We are making a difference in so many lives!
Your friend,
~[ProTech]~

So I've been busy as **** lately, but I found that the issue seems to be with the os more than the phone itself. I'm not that proficient with downgrading the os to a earlier version since this phone came stock with Oreo. I will try and talk to some of the devs who did the aristo 2 x210ma. Hopefully they have a solution. I've been using my 2 instead. I never realized how much you can't do with a stock phone and os.

OK here's something you can try...
first get dev-patched LGup {GooGle It}
then use the Dump function of Lgup to dump All partitions from your fone...
look for boot_COM{some#here} and rename it to boot.img
put that file on your fones sdcard and install magisk manager app.
use magisk manager app to patch that boot.img file.
find the new file patched_boot.img whereever magisk put it on your sdcard...
move it to your desktop or a folder etc. on P.C
now try to flash it to your fone...
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
if that works your bootloader is now unlocked you'll have to reboot the fone once as it'll erase cache and data...
after that
again do
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
now try
Code:
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
if that works....
Code:
fastboot reboot
and you'll have root by magisk.
if fastboot's not working other option is to rename "patched_boot.img" to "boot.img"
and then use Partitions DL option in lgup to flash the "patched"boot.img to the phone...
if that works you'll have root by magisk...
If this helped you feel free to hit thanks and come back to post the results plz.
Thanks

OK here's something you can try...
first get dev-patched LGup {GooGle It}
then use the Dump function of Lgup to dump All partitions from your fone...
look for boot_COM{some#here} and rename it to boot.img
put that file on your fones sdcard and install magisk manager app.
use magisk manager app to patch that boot.img file.
find the new file patched_boot.img whereever magisk put it on your sdcard...
move it to your desktop or a folder etc. on P.C
now try to flash it to your fone...
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
if that works your bootloader is now unlocked you'll have to reboot the fone once as it'll erase cache and data...
after that
again do
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
now try
Code:
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
if that works....
Code:
fastboot reboot
and you'll have root by magisk.
if fastboot's not working other option is to rename "patched_boot.img" to "boot.img"
and then use Partitions DL option in lgup to flash the "patched"boot.img to the phone...
if that works you'll have root by magisk...

My bootloader is already unlocked I've just not been able to flash anything with fastboot. So I have LGup, is there a difference with the dev patched one? I also have magisk on my phone, but it really doesn't give me any options besides to install a new version. I'm gonna go try your suggestion soon though...it sounds promising...and may open up other options if this doesn't succeed. Thanks I'll keep you posted.

in answer to that YES quite a difference...
devpatched lgup gives you extra options such as Dump and Partitions-DL and Chiperase among others...
you'll NEED that dump and partitions-DL option....

So I can't get passed the dump. I keep getting a timed out error. I even tried to format the user data using fastboot and it failed. And I am curious about the boot_COM. I didn't see any file in the partition list matching that. I did see the boot partition and many others that I didn't recognize. So kinda feeling that we are back to

No the file wont say that in lgup, it'll be named that after you create a new folder on desktop call it "Dump" then use the dev-patched lgup and Dump option, select the folder Dump on the desktop and select the little checkbox for all on partitions list and click start...
also you may be haveing issues because of the .dll your useing... will lgup flash a stock .kdz to the device?
if yes, I'd think the dump option would work fine...

So yes it would load a stock formware but no it wouldn't allow me to dump even one partion. And the strange thing was that my list of options would chanhe sometimes. Like it would give me more options i.e. phonesettings. I even tried different cables and ports. It doesnt matter though i somehow hard bricked it so bad that it won't even. Boot to download mode and somehow fried my sim card to the point it wont work in any other phone. Im just waiting for metro to open so i can try again

OH WOW what a mess...
I would say it's the .dll in the LGUP causing pain here...
something you can try when you're ready to try again....
remove/uninstall devpatched LGUP and install regular store version
use the Common .dll
and add this file{ UI_Config.lgl } to your Common folder in the lgup install location ...
to make it easier I'll just zip up My common folder for you to replace yours
to do this
right click on lgup, select open file location...
navigate to the model subfolder you'll see things like
{ AllinOne } {Common} and {LGUP_LGNPST} folders...
at that point just right click and rename {Common} folder to {Commonbak},
then take my zip file I'm attaching and unzip it and inside will be Common folder...
just Copy / Paste that new Common folder to where the old one is..
set permissions of folder { read-only} and open the folder find file called { UI_Config.lgl }
and set it's permissions to READ ONLY . otherwise it'll be erased once you start LGUP.
and see If that changes anything with being able to Dump...
It's let me dump every LG i've plugged into it...
so I should think it should work for you too...

Dude...
First off let me say MertoPCS has the biggest pile of **** customer care department. I'm still waiting on my new device to comr from the warrenty department. I did however fix the sim issue (again metro sucks leaky bowels). I will definitely post any new developments as soon as the happen.
Oh also i did a dump on another phone (aristo 2) and had no issuses. And i saw what ypu meant with the boot_COM##. Thanks for the help.

it may work,
when lgup is being a pain it's worth a try.
I say go for it. but to be certain I'd try flashing the extracted boot.img with partitions DL option in lgup once to make sure it flashes it b4 trying to patch it and flash it again...
Just my 2 cents.

Aristo3 FW: X220MA10B "10b" came on the system stock
LGUP V1.14 - patched
DLL v1.0.28.17
The above dll is the only one I have found that will recognize the phone and load LGUP, I have also attempted to use uppercut: Error DLL for X220M10b is invalid install a valid dll
https://imgur.com/1Ptrv3n
however, once i attempt to dump phone reboots into download mode i get: Error: 0x2000, please use latest Dll LAF protocol version is not match dll=0 device 162512928
https://imgur.com/5I7GfOa
I attempted to use the LGUPC DLL from the kdz V 10E firmware and that did not recognize the device i also attempted to use your zipped commons.
any feedback on this?
I feel that i should use LG tool update to 0F then use the 0F kdz to attempt all this?

DOWNGRADE Don't UPGRADE

If at all posible find the OLDEST firmware possible in kdz and do a full flash of that .
and try your dll mod with that by extracting the dll from said kdz and renaming to what ever the one in Common folder is and keep the UI_Config.lgl in there to keep the extra options if possible...
It's all trial and error with this stuff, so keep at it.
DO NOT flash a firmware.kdz from a different model of the device as it'll flash aboot sbl etc and you'll end with a brick that can't be fixed.
and I've always liked { in my experiments} to use the partitions DL option even when downgrading etc to be able to NOT CHOOSE the boot-stack partitions...
but give it a shot and tell us how it go's.
we may be able to split a root-bounty if we come up with something working across users
