Tonight I will test ZV8.

thanks

I definatly have. Dude I have the Stagefright update. There's no roots for it yet. I've been looking daily and tried several suggestions. If you want to upload a zv8 ROM please do and link it. But I've looked plenty. Those ZV7/ZV6 roots don't work.

ZV7 and ZV6 are directly for each version. Not for ZV8.
And could you please enlighten me which methods have you tried @Franglestine cause just to make sure I just rooted my ZV8 LS996 Stagefright patched Flex2.
BTW @randrew87 @Sj12345 sorry I took this long but root works flawlessly.

Unable to root H959 10d

Has anyone been successful with this?
I am trying the guide posted in the general thread.. it worked while my phone had the f510s firmware
but after flashing h959 10d it does not work at all.. I get up to step 11 (where you have to enter the sh command) and nothing happens.
I've tried it a few times, sometimes the cursor will just blink
other times, it will return to the # immediately
a couple of times i got the word 'EXEC' and some garbage text.
I've done some research and all I could find is other people complaining about the same problem, but no solutions.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Umm Root appears to only work for V10c and Earlier firmwares...I had to roll back to V10c to root again. Dont know if this helps. :silly:

Yes I am using 10c now and the root is fine.
I was previously able to root v10i on the korean firmware
I really regret flashing the 959 firmware now as they already have 5.1.1

I highly doubt it....since it so new...i would wait b4 updating sometimes....."Bugs Fixes" usually mines root/security exploits patched...meaning they found a new way of blocking root...making it that much harder to root

Normally i wouldnt have taken it, but a failed root attempt broke my download mode, this fixed it, I know there was a rootedsystem.img floating around somewhere. I heard it worked for zv7 on through, but cant find it anymore.

So basically, word of the wise is to wait, I have the zv9 unrooted, anyone you would suggest i make a dump and send to?

Is there a way to unroot ZV9 and be back to stock like nothing happened?
It's not any different than the other build versions. The stock image is on the forum.

Are you saying the rootedsystem.img can be applied to ZV9? The "[ROOT] LG G FLEX 2 ..." thread hasn't been updated to include this ver so I'm skeptical. Would love to hear from those who've had some success since I'm still evaluating whether I want to keep this thing or not. The sprint bloatware installed upon activation is almost too much to bare.

There is a ZV9 rootedsystem.img and its there if you look for it.
I was talking about getting back to stock (I made a thread where there's all the sys images from ZV6 to ZV9 pure stock).
And yes the image is there. I'm already on ZV9 rooted. Apply the fixes from itson and lab network and bloatware wont bother you at all.
K, I found it, be great if it added to the OP but w/e thanks for letting me know it was somewhere - in this post:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64087953&postcount=378. Working great! Next I'll try to track down those "itson and lab network" fixes you suggested.

Help, H950 flash to stock for OTA Update?

EDIT: Looks like its not MM but some security update, so that sucks but I'd still like to know if anyone successfully got back to stock from rooted 5.1.1
Hi everyone.
I'm trying to find a way to restore my H950 to stock and completely remove any trace of root so that I can install an OTA update. I have tried installing the update with LG PC Suite and LGMobile Support Tool. Both of them say that I am on the latest software (5.1.1 H950v11?). It has been so long since I rooted it that I can't remember what method I used. If anyone has any idea how to flash it back to stock, I'd appreciate the help!
More Details:
I have an H950 (US AT&T) rooted on 5.1.1 and I just started getting an update yesterday saying that I have a system update available. When I tried to download and update, the phone I got an error while the update was still at 0%. When the phone restarted I got the "This phone is suspected in rooting..." Error.
I have tried following this thread [Guide] LG G Flex 2 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock) KDZ & TOT Method
but it didn't work. I got the flash utility to run but I still had SuperSU after it flashed my phone and the update still failed due to "Suspect in rooting."
I also tried following this thread [Tool] Easy Restore/Unroot Tool for LG G Flex 2 [09/15/15]!!
but I could not get it to work. The utility just hangs at "Working..."
Anyone successfully used either of these methods on an H950 with 5.1.1 to get back to stock?
Thanks in advance!
2nd method

You chose cse flash and wiped correct? If you didn't that's why my guide removes everything 100% if you follow it correctly.

CSE flash? Sorry I didn't see that in your guide for the H950 on the AT&T network. I'm looking at your guide and not seeing the CSE Flash unless the LG Tool is the CSE FLash? I had the same problem with SuperSU left over and not able to update. I tried the default Upgrade method, then got a minios OS screen on the the Board method.

It's entirely possible that I am technologically inept, but I am having the exact same issue as the OP. I followed your guide (which was very helpful) for the TOT method, and there is no option to use CSE flash, or at least it's not discussed in the instructions.
I flashed my phone twice using your TOT guide -- pretty sure I followed it to the letter. It completed successfully, but when the phone rebooted, I still had root access. I'm not sure how to unroot this thing so I can receive OTA updates (and maybe sell later on down the road).
Thanks for the help!

Umm, so I found a possible solution on another thread in this forum. Maybe the answer was so simple that nobody thought to mention it. But apparently, you can just remove root access within the SuperUser app; just select "Full Unroot" or "Total Unroot" from settings. Then run this TOT flash, and you should be GTG. I am trying this now and will report as to whether I am successful.

Rooted or not you should be able to go back to stock. And CSE flash is for the kdz method of lg flash tool. Which I didn't realize what model they were needing help with. Also with the H950 LGUP should be used instead of normal flash tool to avoid any issues with the flash tool.

Hmm. Thanks for helping us out. So I am kind of confused. I reinstalled the Tot file using LGUP, and it completed successfully. I selected "REFURB" mode, and it completed successfully. But after it finished, my phone is still rooted. (I verified with root checker.) I just want to go back to stock so I can get OTA updates (and MM hopefully, when/if AT&T releases it). Now my phone won't get OTA updates because it says it's "suspected of rooting." I bought the phone used off of Swappa, so I'm not sure how exactly the original owner rooted it.

At this point you'd be better off waiting for a KDZ of MM when it comes out for the H950. (But remember, root will probably never be achieved for our devices on MM, if that's something you care about).
I remember buying TWO H950s. Both needed the OTA for the latest Lollipop. But despite several hours, several methods, and several hours at the ATT store, I was never able to get OTAs working on either of them. It was impossible.
And supposedly impossible for several other users on XDA, who couldn't get OTAs working for their ATT Flex 2's. So even if you manage to unroot, don't get your hopes high believing OTAs will work.
Did somebody ever able to go back to stock (H950) from rooted 5.1.1? Where did you get the TOT file?

I have a bricked v20 and I have tried flashing this .tot and the other posted in this forum and I keep getting error messages at 9% on all attempts on two windows machines. Any ideas on what this issue could be? I am using LGUP version 1_14_3. Is this the latest build or the build compatible with the V20? Drivers were latest I could find also using the LG common.dll which I needed for LGUP to recognize the V20. This is my only way out of brick I think. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

mate, as of today, i have read that there is no dll file for the v20. i.e there is no updated dll file to recognise the v20 in lgup.
u might want to wait a bit longer before u can unbrick your phone.

Not good news.. it is just the dll? I mean i knew it had to be a missing piece because it was ready to flash. Every file failed at the same time. If anyone hears anything please post here or PM me just for a heads up. Im sure a few other desperate souls out there are anxiously waiting. Any reason the flash tools are incomplete? It doesnt seem like a big deal. Can someone here in the forum make one? Just couious.. i would gladly donate. Thanks for the info.

I don't think the flash tool is meant to be public, so they are probably leaked files.
I have a soft bricked LG V20 and have tried the LGUP DLL for every LG phone model I could find. The most progress I got was with the LG G5 dll and it only went to 10%.

not really sure as i am new to LG.
been reading up on xda relating to flashing and rooting (i came from samdung phones) this baby. i think being patient here is what you can do at the moment.also, not only the dll file is missing, i read twrp is not saving backup properly due to the new security protocols in place android 7.0.
take heart mate,i know it sucks to have a bricked phone.
all im getting is "Unknown Model"
Managed to soft brick my H918 as well, so if anyone working on this needs a tester, I'd love to get my phone back.

I appreciate it, wish I'd seen that the day before. I tried to go back to stock recovery to see if that would fix my boot loop issue, so, without access to TWRP, I'm hosed until we have a method to reflash recovery from Fastboot or Update modem connection..
I am screwed as well, I messed my phone up too, and when I turn my phone on it automatically goes the to the upgrade mode screen, I want to through away this damn phone, hehehe.

Anyone willing to try this 7.0 update?

I have both the h901 and h900. I updated my 901 to Nougat, and in the same thread the Dev says it is possible to use on the 900. Anyone tried this or willing to try?? My wife uses the h900, sooooo, if I screw that up I'm sleeping on the couch..

Hi
I tried to use it, but I am unable to boot into any recovery and if I try "and reboot boot loader" the h900 just reboots back into MM.
I am currently on H90021w.

The instructions say to cd into directory /dev/block/bootdevice/... but you need to be root to cd into this directory.
Just for grins I tried to do some adb commands on mine, after adb reboot, I got the android with a red triangle and from that point couldn't issue adb commands..

My ATT H900 is still on lollipop and is rooted. Do you think this would work on my phone and if so, what steps do you think I should follow?

I can't really say. My H900 was rooted and on LP, but I upgraded it back in January. Now when I try to do anything with ADB, nothing works and my PC doesn't even recognize it. My plan was to follow the Dev's directions, only pushing system.img and boot.img.
I may try again later
Waiting for good news... ?

You may want to send a message to the Dev over in the H901 section. Here is what he told me just today. Sounds like you are at the right point according to him.
