Hello all
I have bought this device about two weeks ago and i have been exploring the forums
To get the most out of it so here is my story in the first i thought my flex 2 is 32GB 3G Ram but after seeing the forums i knew its possible to have 2G Ram thats not my problem any more my problem is i tryed to flash 5.1.1 and i ended up with 9 GB available storage
What i understood is all H955 is 16GB 2G Ram but not my H955
When i tried to reflash i found that H959 gave me 32GB but without network and says that my device is permanently locked and when i flash H955 i get 9GB with network working
I couldnt find any kdz that supports both 32GB and network together even v10 ones
So my solution is to find kdz supports both correct storage and working network or
Trying to edit either partition table on the H955 varaints kdz or find a way to enable network in H959 variants and i failed to do either and i need your help to solve my issuewith the device i am out of ideas .
Here is another question can i cross flash ls996 kdz and enable gsm network? Does all ls996 have 32GB storage and which one can i enable gsm in ?
do you try a dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p48
check that /dev/block/mmcblk0p48 is yout userdata partition.
ls -l /dev/block/platform/f9824900.sdhci/by-name
if it dont work, you can try to crossflash the modem.
I cannot do it never.
The only way I found to crossflash succesfully is flash any rom for my phone, then overwrite /system
check if in h959 with no data signal you have imei
I did the dd command wont work on H955 kdz
With H959 imei is good but no network
I tryed to flash modems from H955 to H959 results in bootloop
H955 = 16gb storage, 2Giga Ram. There's only an H950 having 32GB/3G Ram. Rather buy an sd card and don't waste your time, brotha

dont you know none that have the same phone?
you can dump the fs, then restore your imei with qpst
Thanks for your support
I tried every thing except crossflashing
Today i found out that H955A is 32GB + 2GB and i am afraid of bricking my phone from execisve flashing of kdz (this is my main phone) maybe i will take the risk in the weekend so if it bricks i will try to get your help in fixing it
update :
i flashed H955A everything works fine but still the storage is 9 GB
i need to know which H955 KDZ ahve the 32GB Partition Table ? do any one know how to check partition table of KDZ ?
i kept searching with no result for H955 32GB 2GB Ram KDZ if any one knows which variant is this model please help !
Still no one knows how to check partition table of any kdz ? And determine which is 16 kdz and 32 kdz ?

hi guys,
i have a very big trouble with my lg gflex 2. here is my problem: i installed europe rom to my at&t lg gflex 2. but sim not worked. and when i searched forums, i've seen h950pr rom, and installed too. but this time imei gone. when i install the europe rom back imei is showin' up again. but sim card not working anymore. i need to back up my efs partition from europe rom and modify h950pr rom, is it possible? and need serious help?
thanks in advance...
Hi. I'm lost. I've bricked my freshly purchased H950 because of being in haste to update the firmware to 5.1.1. I've accidentally installed a H955 KDZ over my stock 5.0.1 AT&T H950 firmware. As expected, the device is bricked (everything works except the cell network). I've tried everything, spent about 8 hours with no result. Can't root it as well.
The IMEI and Baseband status is "Unknown" (lost EFS partitions).
Please, if it;s possible, give me an advice how to restore it to its original ATT firmware. I know that ATT hasn't published the TOT file of their firmware. Maybe I could restore it using someone's backed up files?
I'm outside of the US for the next 7 months so I won't be able to return it
Please help me, this is urgent.

Well the good new is that your cell phone works so it is not brick. Cell network probably doesnt work because H955 use different bands than H950. I dont think you will be able to go back to ATT rom because like you mentioned there is no kdz for it. But on the bright side you can try to use the H950PR KDZ to flash your cell. this is totally compatible with the H950 from ATT. You can always wait for the someone more knowledgeable to answer but I am almost sure that it should work.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-flex2/general/kdz-compatible-att-h950-t3180847
I've installed the h950pr and there the cell network is still not working
In case if i find a person who has a similar device with Att firmware, how can i make a backup of it in order to flash my device?
I've managed to root my semi-bricked H950. But the imei and baseband version are still unknown. What should I do?
baseband ok. just the imei has 0 value. help please

follow THIS guide and you should be ok.
Use your own imei embedded in the back of the phone or the original box.

Check your PM.
Does anybody know how to write IMEI on the H950 without octopus box? Can't do it in QPST, DFS, EFS pro because it sn't recognized as a phone / doesn't answer.
Everything works, I can even make calls, just the imei value is 0.
Finally I did it!!!

Did you use qpst? Or which tool?

Yeah. I used QPST. I had to open cmd, enter "adb shell", then " su", then "echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/lg_diag_cmd/diag_enable". After that you can backup Nv via QPST.
Im glad you informed yourself and solved your own issue. ?

First of all what kdz are you flashing?? There's no D850 kdz file.
Your getting an error with flash tool is because your supposed to use the dll file that says use this if you have trouble. Or you have to use an hex editor to change the tot file your needing to flash. Just google hex tot file edit

Just like me.. you've been scammed. someone sold you 855 with a different board. 850 most probably. so try 850 tot files. not kdz. Cheerz
So I really messed up and deleted too much bloat without a system.img backup on the internal memory.
I can't find any .kdz's or .tot's for my device.
I have tried to restore function in the "LG mobile support tool" but it just restarts my phone a few times in Download Mode and then spews out "Check out the model and serial number."
Is there any way to push the system.img to my phones internal memory and then use adb with dd command to flash it?
Or perhaps use adb dd with system.img on external SD?
Thank you

No sd card from download.
Check in rooting process some flex 2 that have the same command, same offsets and you can try with a kdz for this device, when you boot you may have lost your imei, but if you have luck, you not.
If you have signal, you have a flex back again.
Try some h955 with same internal storage and same baseband...
You can try any, anyone works, except for att version that have antirollback, so if you have no signal but have the imei, you need someone that send you modem.img from ls996, and all will be ok

I'm sorry, I'm mostly confused here because of the language barrier between us, but what you are saying is I can take a .kdz from an h955 phone and flash it safely on my ls996? But what do you mean when you say same internal storage and baseband? And what "same commands, same offsets?"
I was just under the impression that in any case flashing one device with the firmware of another meant a hard brick.

No sr, my h950 have h955 ar firmware with no problems, the only problem thay may ocurs is imei lost.
You need to check the root process, the manual mode, it have a dd command, with seek and count parameters.. If you find one flex2 that uses the same seek and count, its very possible that you dont loose your imei in the crossflash.
So intall that kdz, your phone must boot.
Ls996 does not have antirollback as I know,

Well unfortunately (according to this thread that I followed to root my phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-flex2/development/lg-g-flex-2-ls996-zv6-sprint-5-1-1-t3169212) no other variant has the same seek and count as my LS996...

Well, phone is lost with no tot or kdz, you can try with any 5.1.1 image.
If I were you I would try with any h955, with the same storage capacity and similar baseband.
Flash the kdz, and then recover your imei if you lost it
