ROM OS Version: 6.0.x Marshmallow
ROM Kernel: Linux 3.4.x
ROM Firmware Required: 6.21.605.3
Based On: Sense 7.0
Version Information
Status: Stable
Created 2015-09-09
Last Updated 2017-04-30

Firmware
FIRMWARE:
MARSHMALLOW:
Combined Marshmallow Firmware Zip
If coming from a previous Android version, you can use the following zip to get caught up on all previous firmwares in one shot.
This zip contains all firmware files from the first OTA through the latest, with the newest files replacing the older ones, while keeping the ones that did not get replaced in newer firmwares.
This will give you all needed firmware files for the current Marshmallow release, no matter what you had previously.
m8vzw_AllInOne_Firmware_6.21.605.3 (will NOT wipe the device)
Otherwise, you can just flash the incremental firmware update posted below:
6.21.605.3_NoBoot-TWRP3.0.0-1_firmware.zip
6.21.605.3_NoBoot-NoRecovery_firmware.zip
6.21.605.3_FULL_firmware.zip
LOLLIPOP:
Combined Lollipop Firmware Zip
If coming from a previous Android version, you can use the following zip to get caught up on all previous firmwares in one shot.
This zip contains all firmware files from the first OTA through the last, with the newest files replacing the older ones, while keeping the ones that did not get replaced in newer firmwares.
This will give you all needed firmware files for the last Lollipop release, no matter what you had previously.
m8vzw_AllInOne_Firmware_4.17.605.9 (will NOT wipe the device)
Otherwise, you can just flash the incremental firmware update posted below:
4.17.605.9 Modified Firmware - Removed stock boot.img and stock recovery and WILL NOT WIPE device
(suitable firmware update for most cases, especially if running custom rom and recovery)
4.17.605.9 Full Firmware - Includes stock boot.img and recovery and WILL WIPE device
No Red Text and Faux Locked Hboots - my m8 hboot thread
4.17.605.9 Stock Recovery
4.17.605.9 Stock Boot.img/Kernel
How to manually flash firmware zips:
(sd card method also works, but I recommend fastboot)
Place the zip in your fastboot/adb directory on your computer.
Put the device in fastboot mode
(Volume down and power until menu appears, select fastboot using power button)
Connect the device to the computer
Enter the following commands from terminal/command prompt in the fastboot directory, one at a time:
fastboot oem rebootRUU (this puts the device in RUU mode)
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip (rename file to firmware.zip to make it simple/optional)
It will say that the update did not finish, to flush again, so repeat the above step:
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
Important: the flash process halts at around 75% to 90% on phone screen! This is normal and a safety precaution!
The last few percent is the reboot, which is NOT happening automatically, so you get a chance to check the console output before reboot to make sure it is safe to reboot!
The bar will only fill up to 100% once you type the following command:
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
fastboot reboot-bootloader (this reboots the device to bootloader)
That's it, you're done. You can now reboot and will be running the latest firmware and radios.
If you have any questions or issues, let me know.

OTAPkg
For those that want to apply the OTA manually:
Old files:
LOLLIPOP:
4.17.605.9_OTAPkg.zip:
To be applied on stock device with stock recovery only
LOLLIPOP:
Stagefright Patch:
Recovery Flashable Patch
Fixes the one remaining vulnerability that the OTA didn't patch.

Thanks, santod040! Nice to see you around in these parts again!

Awesome! But, what is it? Latest firmware appears to be 4.17.605.5. First guess was Stagefright fix, but that would be done in ROM, not firmware. Did our phone get an OTA today?

Yes, there was an OTA to .9 with the stagefright patch/security update.
I'll be posting a full stock rooted rom in a bit...

Awesome thanks santod. Can't wait to get your latest nusense seven. And with this I'll be ready to flash..
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using XDA Free mobile app

I tried the non-wipe fastboot method. It updates through the console correctly, the software version shows the .9 in the boot loader, but when I go to settings and check the version, it still shows the .5 and I get the upgrade nag screen.
Edit: I think I fixed it, I had to go into recovery and wipe my cache and dalvik cache.
Edit2: Nvm, I thought it was fixed because I saw the updating apps window, but it's still .5 in Settings

Your updated firmware will show in fastboot mode only.
You will need to update/flash a rom based on the new OTA for Settings/Software info to change.
That is merely showing what rom base/software you are running, not firmware.
They are not one in the same thing.
Full rooted stock rom should be uploading shortly...

Hey Santo! Is the OTA that you posted the same one I posted or have you rooted that so we can just install that instead of the full version?

I posted the OTAPkg.zip that I downloaded from Vzw in it's stock patch form, for users that want to apply it manually with stock recovery.
That is in the third post.
I also made a complete full stock rooted rom from it, after applying it to the previous RUU/software version.
That is in the OP, and not only did I post the full stock rooted flashable rom, but I also posted a debloated version of the rom as well, with a few small goodies added.
The links in the OP are full Twrp flashable stock roms.
The files in the second post are firmware from the OTA.
The files in the 3rd post are the OTAPkg.zip which should only be applied if you have the previous stock rom running and stock recovery.
In other words, I posted full rooted Twrp flashable roms and fastboot flashable firmware, so that everyone doesn't have to worry about completely wiping their devices to take an OTA or getting stuck in the process.
Also, in the 3rd post, I posted a stagefright patch, to fix the remaining stagefright vulnerability that HTC/Vzw still left us with, after this OTA. (included in the debloated rom I posted as well)

Thank you again for all your hard work! Just a fast question about the firmware, can it be loaded via hboot by changing the file name to the 0P6..etc or can it only be loaded via fastboot/pc?

No problem. You're quite welcome.
I believe I mentioned in the firmware post, that sd card method works as well. [emoji5]

I must have missed that, you did say sd method works.. That's what I get for skimming quickly for the links and not reading the entire post!

Thanks again sir. Updated firmware and removed red text using SD card method. Worked fine, but just to be safe I ran the hboot install twice for the firmware.

...so the ROM kernel isn't 3.10.X right? Seems to be 3.4.0 from the screenshot

[Dec-25-2016] H850 20B DeOdexed

Your warranty is now void, don't blame me if your phone blows up blahblahblah.
Only system and kernel are being flashed, no Modem, BL, etc. You should already have updated to 20B before using.
Have not tested this myself, due to not owning the H850. edit: flashed it on T-Mobile 830 for fun with 20A 830 boot, no surprise, didn't work.
Decided to post anyway. If your going to use it, BACKUP, BACKUP, BACKUP
Based off of H85020b_00_TIM_IT_OP_1123.kdz
Only things touched are bootanimation (pixel black) and renamed recovery-from-boot.bak. It's also been zip-aligned.
Flash in recovery, profit??
SuperSu and Busybox included. Only /system is wiped, data left alone.
Should be able to dirty flash over current 20B if you like.
Any errors, etc, would most likely be related to deodexing as all files are stock.-Again, haven't tested this one myself
Link: H850_20B_DeOdexed
MD5: 99c9667294d1227de91605b8958233e0
If anyone would like to use this as a base, Great! Would appreciate some credit. [emoji13]
Enjoy.

Great work Bro, nice. :good:

A couple questions 1. Isn't 20B just a security patch update? 2. Does this ROM zip upgrade firmware (bootloader , radio, recovery) or just update software. 3. Since it's based off of the Italian H850 variant this won't cause troubles for EU variant?

1. Not 100% sure. 2. Just system and kernel are flashed. No M/BL, etc. 3. No idea really.

Received error while flashing, code 7, seems it couldn't locate a certain filesystem and aborts installation - same here with the 20B version

Hmmm flashed ok on my h830(swapped kernel), wouldnt boot (of course, this is for 850), but still flashed. Not sure why your getting that error, already removed the assert.

Same error... Keep at it tho, something like this could be really useful

If anyone wants to try this themselves here's a quick guide.
You can take the system.img and boot.img from either the kdz with LG Firmware Extractor or from autoprime complete zip.
Then Google "superR kitchen xda", if your using windows there is a VM iso in the thread you can use with VirtualBox etc.
Once you have the kitchen working just remember, set_metadata for perm, use smali/baksmali for deodexing and don't sign the zip or let it remove the meta-inf folders from apps.

In my h850 doesn't finish to install, it remains on initial boot animation.

Flashed ok but stuck on LG logo? May need to flash no verify or "format data" in TWRP. BACKUP everything if formatting.

Ok so I just clean flashed my 20a for h830 and got that error code 7, doesn't happen on dirty. Just restarted TWRP after wiping and then it flashed ok. Might be the same problem over here.

Flash your rom inside TWRP or Flashfire or Safestrap(Or whatever method you may be using to flash roms)
I recommend against Dirty flashing however if you are coming from a 6.0.1 ROM you probably are fine
Wipe Cache/Dalvik

Thumbs up

I just flashed this (STOCK_MAGISK version, it's going on my Mom's phone so odex/deodex isn't a big deal); worked great. I was a little surprised there was still a lot of Samsung apps, I guess those don't count as Verizon bloat?

I was just trying to install an ad block but somehow lost root. Supersu can't find the su binary. I know this was working prior. Do I just need to flash supersu zip again?
---------- Post added at 08:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:56 AM ----------
Answer my own question, yes just download the latest supersu zip, flash via twrp, wipe cache/dalvik and wait for the boot (5-10) minutes.
Supersu app now working.

I'm on PF4 unlocked bootloader. Is there any advantage to upgrading my bootloader to PJ2? Sometime I prefer the theory "if it ain't broke..."
Thanks

I am on unlock bootloader (pb1) please help me how can update my bootloader to pd1 or later and then flash this rom.

I bet we dont see many more updates from here on

Excellent work, very fluid and excellent functionality, 100% compatible with Xposed.

Lost advanced calling
Has anybody else lost advanced calling features?
I upgraded unlocked bl from 5.0 stock kernel to 6.0.1 pj2.
installed the stock magisk deodexed rom.
Now I don't have advanced calling/wifi calling.
Any help?

I've installed 2 versions of the pj2 roms, and they both show knox installed in about phone in settings. Thought knox was removed?

I have a question, because of the little space left by the installation of the original ROM in general, I decided to eliminate the preinstalled applications, Audible, IMDB, NFL, ANT Radio, Flipboard, go90, Kindle, Amazon etc, but by deleting these apps , The step sensor stops working, and stops counting the steps, some suggestions to be able to delete the apps without losing the step counter?

[ROM][v521] LG Stock Nougat ROMs for LG G Pad X 8.0 (2018-06-18)

Disclaimer:
I am not responsible for anything that may happen to your phone as a result of installing this rom. You do so at your own risk and take responsibility upon yourself.
About:
The Stock ROMs posted here are extracted from official LG KDZ files for the T-Mobile LG G Pad X 8.0 | v521 | b3.
Only change made on ROM was to prevent stock recovery from restoring itself
ROM includes modem/radio, however you can also manually flash the modem/radio from here
root is NOT included. However feel free to flash your choice of root with Magisk, SuperSU, or any others at anytime to get root.
Info:
Android version: 7.0
Kernel version: 3.10.84
Build number: NRD90U
init.d support
forceencrypt disabled
Requirements:
Your device must be or have been on 20f or newer at one point or another. If your device has always been on Marshmallow and has never been updated to Nougat by kdz or OTA, you'll need to upgrade to Nougat and re-root first. (Thank to monkeyass408 for verifying)
You can follow this guide to do so: Guide to Update V521 LG GPAD X 8.0 to 7.0 and Root
You must have TWRP or another custom recovery already installed in order to flash this rom.
Instructions:
Download the version of your choice from below.
Boot into TWRP and make a backup. You may want to remove any lock screen security before doing this as restoring with lock screen may cause unexpected issues.
Optional: Wipe data and/or system. As of TWRP 3.1.1.0, you will want to reboot recovery after wiping data/system before flashing as TWRP may get stuck on a black screen during the flashing process without a reboot.
Flash ROM.
Optional: Flash the disable OTA zip to prevent and disable official LG OTA updates & notifications
Reboot and you should be all set.
Downloads: (Listed by Sofware version / Android security patch level)
Note: As of 2017-02-21, TWRP 3.0.2-0, will sometimes give the error "Failed to map file" when attempting to flash this rom. Rebooting TWRP will resolve it and allow you to flash the zip.

All Stock ROMs Folder
Disable Stock OTA
Note: This should prevent you from verifying and updating via OTA. The OTA notification may still pop up but it should go away when you attempt to update after flashing this. I haven't fully tested this so backup first and don't be surprised if it returns you to full stock.

Yes you can flash this over Marshmallow v52110c. Technically a dirty flash (no wipe) would work fine but you never know so don't be surprised if issues spring up. After you flash the rom, since you're upgrading from Marshmallow, you'll want to update the radios too. The flashable zips for it can be found @ https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg...irmware-modem-flashable-modem-zips-t-t3564590. I'd recommend flashing the respective radio of the Nougat version you end up using.

so after I flash the 20g my 5ghz wifi keeps on disconnecting, same thing after flashing the 20g modem. wiped data as well. coming from official 20f rooted with dirtycow.
my 10 other devices are fine so it's not my router. not sure if it's an issue with the 20g, never had any issue with 20f

Hmmm I haven't had any issues with my 5ghz on my tablet. The roms are ripped straight out of the kdz files so any changes between 20g and 20f are strictly from LG/T-Mobile. Although I do recommend keeping the modem version and the rom version the same, I am curious, would you be able to test and see if it still happens if you downgrade the modem version to 20f while you're on the 20g rom?

Long overdue but added 20h, 20i, and 20j.
Decided to get rid of AROMA and root selection so any root method can be manually flashed afterwards.
Stock recovery shouldn't restore itself now. init.d support and forceencrypt is set to disabled by default since TWRP doesn't play along nicely with encrypt anyways.

Yes you can flash this over Marshmallow v52110c. Technically a dirty flash (no wipe) would work fine but you never know so don't be surprised if issues spring up. After you flash the rom, since you're upgrading from Marshmallow, you'll want to update the radios too. The flashable zips for it can be found @ https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg...irmware-modem-flashable-modem-zips-t-t3564590. I'd recommend flashing the respective radio of the Nougat version you end up using.

Shouldn't need to do anything for LTE to work. Does it get signal at least? I would confirm the APN settings just to make sure they aren't missing for whatever reason.
Otherwise, try another version and see if it does the same thing. Although it shouldn't be the case, it's possible that the device may need to be kdz'd to Nougat first before a Nougat ROM works without any problems. That being said, I do remember being able to manually flash Nougat on my tablet from 10c with no issues back when I was on it.

I figured it out. I had to take 10c marsh to 20f nougat stock and rerooted +twrp in order for it to work. No longee had grayed out lte and apn and missing imei. Thanks for the reply.
Flashing straight 10c marsh to a nougat rom will always give me those errors. Same when tried with resurection remix.

Glad to hear it worked out for you. I stand corrected on it being flashed over Marshmallow so I've updated the first post to reflect that. Thanks for trying and verifying it.

Hello,
The V52120l_00_1201.kdz is OTA, so could you please make the lastest ROM base on V52120l_00_1201.kdz
thanks in advance

@ .fenrir: I appreciate all the work you've done on this and don't really need the monthly patches. Is there a way to disable ota download and notification on a rooted tablet?
Thanks.

20l has been added. I also realized on the older files I accidentally called the device 8.3 instead of 8.0 in the zip so that's been corrected now.

When rooted, you should be able to delete /system/etc/security/otacerts.zip which should prevent the device from verifying for the OTA. Afterwards if the OTA was already downloaded on the device, you can delete the OTA update file at /cache/update.zip . That SHOULD be enough to do it but I won't make any guarantees until I get a chance to test it as you would probably need to delete the other LGFOTA as well. I'll make a flashable zip for it later on if necessary/when I get a chance.

I have always had excellent battery life but after a dirty flash of v.l it is terrible. I am losing 30% overnight. Can I roll back to v.k? I am reluctant to clean flash v.l; it's a lot of work getting back to normal.

[STOCK][O] H850 30a OPEN EU ROM Flashable ZIPs + KDZ (Android 8.0 "Oreo")

Stock Firmware H850 V30a "Oreo" OPEN EU ROM
KDZ-File: H85030a_00_OPEN_EU_OP_0910.kdz (MD5)
Flashable ZIP Complete: LG-H85030a-Flashable.COMPLETE.zip (MD5)
Flashable ZIP Boot: LG-H85030a-Flashable.Boot.zip (MD5)
Flashable ZIP Bootloader: LG-H85030a-Flashable.Bootloader.zip (MD5)
Flashable ZIP Modem: LG-H85030a-Flashable.Modem.zip (MD5)
Android 8.0.0
Patch level: 1 September 2018
Baseband: MPSS.TH.2.0.c1.4-00070-M8996FAAAANAZM-1.163432.2a.168009.1
Kernel: 3.18.71
Build: OPR1.170623.032
Software version: V30a-EUR-XX
Changes:
- Android Oreo
Instructions:
Upgrade from Android 7 and root using TWRP and Magisk
Do backups! Expect to lose your apps and settings!
Get the required imgages:
H85030a_00_OPEN_EU_OP_0910.kdz from above --> store it on your HDD.
twrp-3.2.3-2-h850.img --> HDD
Magisk 17.1 ZIP file. Copy it to your G5's SD card.
the LG-H85030a-Flashable.COMPLETE.zip from above --> SD-Card.
Optional: You can additionally download the MD5 file which is being used by TWRP to verify the ZIP file (simply place it in the same folder like the ZIP).
As a safety measure, I'd clean upgrade with the stock KDZ first using LG UP. This will replace also recovery to stock. If successful, you can continue.
Unlock the bootloader (if not already unlocked) as described here with the official bootloader unlock and flash TWRP. TWRP 3.2.3-2 worked for me. Boot into TWRP as described.
Optional: Do a backup in TWRP.
Format Data: "Wipe" > "Format Data" > type "yes". Wipe slider wipe is not enough!
Go back until you see the TWRP main screen. Then Reboot into Recovery. Don't start into System!
Flash / Install the LG-H85030a-Flashable.COMPLETE.zip and Magisk-v17.1.zip without reboot inbetween.
Reboot to System
enjoy!
To build the ZIPs I used parts of autoprime's previous files. Thx again!

Is the Oreo firmware backward compatible with Nougat?

Why does it come with the Vodafone app?

Just curious if above should be in the OP as they are Nougat files unless I'm mistaken.

I've had it with these stock firmware files and images, I'm waiting until a debloated stable custom rom hits. The KDZ hung on boot even after factory resetting and this stock rom wipes twrp every time I reboot causing me to endlessly reflash twrp.

Shouldn't. I tested it and there is no Vodafone app on my device. Where did you see this? Are you Vodafone customer?

Ok, just for information (and it may be useful to others with the same scenario):
I'm on lineage Oreo, with magisk and twrp 3.2.3.2, can I flash the COMPLETE zip => then twrp => then magisk and get the rom installed keeping twrp and root? I can't access any Windows machine (only Mac) to flash the kdz file, would it work as well if i flash all that stuff in twrp?
Thanks!

What do you mean? Downgrading back to Nougat? Honestly I never tried this.

The first boot after KDZ installation took 5-10 minutes on my device while showing the LG symbol and flashing LED... But it continued. The firmware appears stable on my device. TWRP runs persistent.

I'd give a try but don't blame me if it is not working. Flashing the KDZ was a safety measure to me as I was not entirely sure if flashing COMPLETE alone is enough. But you are already running an Oreo OS, so I'd try it. As long as you have access to TWRP or Bootloader you can flash your working Lineage image and TWRP. However, flashing TWRP after COMPLETE makes no sense in my eyes as COMPLETE does not contain stock recovery.

i also see 2 vodafone apps and some french thing "jeau" or something similar that keeps asking for permissions.
im on EE, but the previous firmware was non branded.
everything seems to be working smoothly

Anyone got any other link than Mediafire? Takes 4 hours to download and would like it faster?

Thank you so much, I didn't know COMPLETE has no recovery inside. So (sorry for bothering) what does COMPLETE contain? My guess is Rom+boot+modem+bootloader but now I'm not sure anymore

Hi
So is good rom to install from TWRP recovery. Any one fund any issue?

The Vodafone app is called "Start" and the phone is unlocked and I'm not a Vodafone customer.

Rom is from Vodafone or only app?

Flashed today, have been running it for about 5 hours...
Gotta say I'm in love, and btw, no bloatware apps nothing. Just clean stock LG Oreo. Beautiful.

I flashed yesterday coming from Lineage OS 15, wiped System, Data and Caches, installed Rom and Magisk. It works.
But I do have the bloatware from LG like Facebook App and a lot of others, that I can not entirely uninstall.
And my phone keeps presenting me a software update, that I would only see, when I agree in using my personal data for...
Btw. no Vodafone App. Why do we have these different experiences? What's going on?

Use system app remover

Flashed Oreo on two LG G5
One got no bloatware and one came with Vodafone and Orange app
The one without bloatware has the Software Version: V30a-EUR-XX
and the one with bloatware has the Software Version: V30a-214-07
I used the same files for flashing
But the bad thing is on both phones the light doesn't work?!
Someone with the same issue?
