[Q] Custom Recovery - LG G Pro 2

Hi,
Are there currently any custom recovery solutions for the LG-F350K?
My last device was the Motorola XT910 and I had Safestrap running on it. I'd like to be able to have backups of the LG G Pro 2 before I start messing around with the device.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Loki has been patched new exploit need for custom recovery and new root exploit is needed ....

Loki was the exploit that was used to get a non stock kernel rom to boot.... Without it there is no cwm twrp .... The same thing is happening to g2 but they have a older hboot they can use to still have recovery etc.... This phone won't have the older ones so a NEw exploit is needed

Thank you for the information. let me do my additional research with what you mentioned earlier. I will get back for any results on the steps that I will try.

That's disappointing, I'm glad I rooted my phone soon after I got it.

May be a dumb question?

If I took the 4.3 update and Im on a custom unlock according to bootup, am I able to do anything as far as custom recovery's and or rom's? Im a flashing addict and I fear that taking this 4.3 update has screwed the potential I used to have lol. I know there are forums on the update and some news but I'm trying to get it narrowed down could someone be of assistance?

The only recovery you can use is safestrap and the only roms you can use are TouchWiz 4.3 roms.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
Yup your screwed. Everyone says you can use tw roms but u cant. Ohh you can root and put safestrap on it. And create rom slots but when u flash one it just goes to a black screen. So yes. Your flashoholic days are over my friend. Trust me. Im stock now. 4.3 JB. Yup. Randomly shuts down, freezes, battery last about an hour. Throw your phone as hard as u can at a verizon rep

Where did you hear this? I highly doubt we're going to get the update, even if the international version is going to get it It'll be months afterwards before Verizon even thinks about pushing an update to us. They really have no incentive to push a kit-kat build to us.

[Q] Verizon S3 SCH-i535 JSS15J.VRUCNC1 How to Root?

Hey Guys,
going nuts over here... Tried odin method to flash NasirTech's CF_AutoRoot, it failed with "Auth Failed" on Odin. Tried cubeuncube's saferoot, that also failed saying my kernel has been patched. Can someone please point me in the right direction on how to get root on my device?
Thanks,
From what I have read you need to odin back to the previous release (ML1 I believe). Current rooting approaches do not work on NC1. You should also be posting this in the questions forum, not in general...

Some users have reported that they are still rooted. I'm almost sure it's a very small percentage that took the NC1 update that are still rooted.
My gf keeps putting off the OTA for NC1 and I told her what the "So called" benefit of updating to it and she told me, well maybe I'll be going to Canada. I told her its Realistically not for us USA users anyways lol

He is not claiming he maintained root after updating to NC1, he it's claiming he used saferoot to gain root after updating to NC1. He is the only one I have ever seen who has said saferoot worked on NC1.

Ummm I wouldn't use an unreliable link. Just my personal opinion. You will hard brick if you attempt to flash anything other than a TW rom on the ML1 modem/rom. You have to flash back to ML1 from NC1 using Odin.

New SGS3 from insurance claim, unrootable?

I just lost my phone and used my insurance to get a new one. It came with 4.3 and the VRUCNC1 baseband. Am I MOD EDIT: PROFANITY NOT ALLOWED AND REMOVED! in rooting this and getting my TBU+ back?
It can indeed be rooted. At this point there are two options. The original method requires Odin and you go back to ML1 or there's the new method which is towel root.
However you can only flash TouchWiz roms utilizing the old method with safestrap and saferoot.
Here is the thread which will guide you

No, you cannot install AOSP ROMs with either. Towel root is root only and does not unlock the bootloader, which is needed in order to flash AOSP ROMs. Basically the same thing with safestrap since the custom ROMs you can run through safestrap have to run off the stock kernel in the stock ROM slot.

These guys will downgrade your bootloader for $50. I'm not sure it would be worth the money for an old S3 but I guess they can do it.

It will work since an entire bootchain gets shoved onto the device at once and bypasses anything that would prevent such a reprogramming

M8 Stagefright patch apply to s-off, rooted, unlocked & Stock

Hi,
I see the Stagefright patch came out today. I'm on Stock Rooted Lollipop with S-off and unlocked. My phone was able to download the patch but then went to TWRP recovery so no dice.
I'm aware of the process needed to get the OTA to work. Just wondering if any side-loadable forms of the Stagefright patch may be forthcoming from some of the genius developers around here. Obviously want the fix but not so sure about having to undue everything on my phone.
Otherwise, is the best suggestion to reflash stock recovery and then take the OTA? IS it true this won't re-lock my phone or S-On it again? Seems if these remain unchanged from current state I would have easier time.
Thanks for ANY advice. Always appreciate it.
I just noticed that my phone was downloading the OTA, im s-off,stock,5.0.1. I see you took the OTA, did you have any issues with the phone? Im currently trying to figure out if i should take it, just dont want to brick my phone or anything
I would just sit tight. Someone is bound to extract the contents and post a flashable zip with confidence that it won't cause any problems. Give it a day or 3.
My phone downloaded, went into recovery. Saw that it was TWRP and didn't do anything. So technically, the download didn't take. I will wait as the next comment suggests....flashable zip is surely inbound.
Thanks!

Newest stock OTA zip inside, will someone root it for us?

OTA file to bring the m8 on Verizon up to 4.17.605.9 and patch stage fright exploit.
Would a dev be kind enough to put together a rooted version on this? I do not know what else is included in this update so feel free to grab it from my Dropbox and tear it open. ? thanks in advance!
