Are you sick of searching through a 200 page thread over one topic just to find the download link to the newest thread?
Well over at allshadow.com I have compiled all of the information of the Firmwares and update everyone on the newest builds
Sure there's a sticky of a chart but how could a chart help you find the newest updates?

You got one too many "http"s in there, turbo.
nice work. I like how everything is there for newbies to go by without posting multiple topics.
This would be a nice sticky or a reference site to point all questions about firmware to.
I fixed, i sorta found that out.
Do you want me to port this thread over? It wont take that long?
You don't mention the holiday firmware for both us and eu

What do you mean? This is the most recent firmware's
I will add those in a sec
I'm currently running the following
signed-dream_gfh_eu-ota-147201.ea8cd686.zip
updated with
signed-gfh_eu-CRB43-from-CRB21.62e94a26.zip
(update is signed-gfh-CRB43-from-CRB21.c88b03d2.zip for us)
I don't know the name of the eu CRB43 file without upgrading though if there is one :-(
Basically this is the nearest I can get to a non t-mobile adp like firmware for europe, unless you know of another ;-)
Please don't let this thread go to waste.
I agree completely. A thread called 'Everything about Firmwares' with incomplete information would be a waste ;-)

Well I was only giving information on the newest builds, sorta waste of your time if you flash RC30, who in the world would do that? I will update to make everyone happier.
Who would want to flash RC30 when a) I'm in europe and b) RCB43 gfh is out?

This thread has Great Info for new Android Users, let's try to keep it alive don't just trash it with off topic posts. Great Job Matt
I'm not trashing the thread, just trying to make sure the information is complete as it would be great to have it all in one place
Anything else you want me to add> I just added all the older builds and added some new sections on User Created Firmware Changes. Thanks for the Props
I mulled over the suggested threads from 2012 (because I live under a rock), and am desperately trying to root this phone.
So, this is the about in the phone section.
Optimus Zone vs410pp
Model #: LG-VS410P
And Version: 2.3.6
Baseband version: MSM7625-0-AA
Build #: GRK39F
Software Version: VS410PP2
I feel like I've tried everything for this phone to Root. Currently going to try SuperOneClick again, but if anyone knows of a sure fire way to do this, please explain in the most simple words you can. I don't care if you drag it out to 39 steps... Pretend you are teaching a potato to use a phone... I know... I need help, but that will come later.. Right now... I need a rooted phone....
Thanks for helping this poor vegetation understand human stuff....
.:Edit:.
So, I just so wonderfully found out that I can't post links as of yet, and was told so via the forum eating all of my extra content I just added. Isn't that nice? You guys should change that to a default "Return to edit" instead of just removing the 2k words I just wrote to help communicate my issue. Thanks XDA-Forum CSS coder. You're a real pal.
Now, moving on to the issue at hand. I'm following a guide, Thread A, that led me to another step by step instructional thread. This is the thread we will call "Thread B".
This is a quote from Thread B.
5. If you have to manually update the driver, you may have to go about it the long way. I had to click "Browse my computer..." then "Let me pick from a list..." then "Have disk..." before browsing all the way to the Universal ADB folder, plus I had to click "OK" through several warnings.
Click to expand...

So, my issue is that I've only had to update drivers manual three times in my life, and they were point and click issues. There was zero decision making. Now, with ADB, which I'm assuming I need as SOC is working, but not rooting the phone correctly. How do I update drivers for this? When I plug in the phone I have a few options in the device manager, and I'm unawares of which I should choose being a potato, and all. Past that, I've around 9 different doo-hickies (yes.. doo-hickies... They are not the standard .dll that I normally run into, and all have very different unknown extensions) to choose from. Do I install them all individually, or is there something I can do to expedite this process, like naving through my sys files, and d&d all these doo-hickies at once so my computer knows LGE Optimus Zone phonespeak?
Thanks to anyone whom may shed light on my plight.
.:Edit:.
To add additional content to my trails, I am currently repeating poot to see what happens here as a user suggested to repeat it after removing the battery roughly ten times to see if poot will slip past the demon. Thus far, I have generated tree-fiddy demons. I'm unsure as to where the demons are materializing, but Poot continuously suggests they are doing such. Potatoes aren't particularly afraid of demons, but this is very inconvenient for them to get in the way of my electronics.
If you've information on any method of adding the access of the phones origins I would be most generous in my thanks.
Hi,
You need to ask this in the Android Q and A section since Optimus Zone doesn't have a dedicated forum to itself:

All,
Due to the recent accidental leak of Samsung eMMC vendor commands allowing write to protected eMMC areas, we are now able to write CID values on production devices.
Beaups has written an awesome tool called 'SamsungCID' (found here: https://github.com/beaups/SamsungCID). This makes the process all teh simpler!
I have built this tool from his source, and used it on a multitude of devices that use a Samsung eMMC. It works without flaw on the Moto G (Second Generation), Galaxy S5 (VZW/ATT, though, ATT doesn't have a Developer Edition that I am aware of), and many, many others.
How does this apply to you?
The S5 uses a Samsung eMMC, and has a Developer Edition. This means that it is vulnerable to this exploit.
How can I help this progress?
I need a few thing to make this work:
- A few testers with Production devices, and root (temp-root should work fine) -- I will contact these people individually, do not ask here to test.
- One person with a Developer Edition that has root (need an aboot dump, and them to run one command).
If any of you know of someone with a Developer Edition, please get them in contact with me. I can be reached on Hangouts, or on Telegram (@npjohnson).
PLEASE do not post your CID publicly.
I will be trying to package this into an app that will extend across multiple vulnerable devices.

I know we'll be able to get a bootloader unlock from this, but hopefully we'll be able to get it done ASAP. I've already moved on to the Nexus 6, but I'd still love to have my S5's bootloader unlocked anyway. Good luck with this, I can't wait.

cant wait to see this going
So how have you gone about compiling and running this? Try as I may I can't seem to do a proper build. It's probably the lowest of the low, but if you could send me a binary, I'd greatly appreciate it
I'd be more than willing to try it on my rooted verizon s5.
Successfully compiled the tool - currently scouring the internet looking for anyone with a developer edition that might be able to help, we should have this done in no time. Have already sent out messages to a few, will look for more. I'll PM you if I get any details
Kinda cool watching this unfold over a few weeks, I'm really excited for what's to come.
You all need to check something else first, you need your current CID
If it starts with anything other than 15, this will not work for you. Samsung EMMC's start with CID 15, Toshiba 11, and there may be more. If you Don't start with 15, this WILL NOT WORK.
Regarding a compiled verison
http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=64141875024257149501
Yeah...unfortunately mine starts with an 11 :c
Yep, mine starts with a 15. I'm ready to start any testing. All of my possible developer editions have fallen through - many requesting a purchase of the actual phone. I'll keep looking, but I might be outta options atm.
I can't believe all we need to open this phone up is a dev phone for a few minutes. It would add new life. I'm searching out people as well. Hopefully we find something soon
Mine starts with a 15 and it's not my daily driver, count me in for testing!
Question. Didn't someone post in one of the forums (General or Android Development) about them having a Walmart Straight Talk S5 and that it was actually a VZW Dev Ed? Because he was wanting to put a CM ROM on it. If that's true, then we also need to find anyone with that particular device as well. If i can find the thread it was posted in I'll add the link. Found the links. If it's true we need to see if these variants could help out.

That's actually brilliant. It MIGHT work, but even though they have identical hardware, I don't know if that guarantees that it will have a compatible bootloader - unless it does, in which case that's amazing, and we need to get a hold of someone with one asap. Unless they are the same model, just rebranded, I don't see this working as the bootloaders may not be signed with Verizon's keys.
True. Forgot about the VZW keys... Was thinking too much of finding a Dev Ed....lol

Don't give up hope so fast. I'm getting in contact with a few people, and I'll certainly try it. This may actually be the same phone, I see a lot of websites suggesting Straight Talk phones are the exact same as Verizon ones. We shall see. My information about the keys might not even be accurate, with my limited knowledge.
It was a good thought though, even if it isn't true
How can you compile it? I'm running Ubuntu 14.04.1 and i can't even get NDK to install correctly.. Any help?

Hmm. I dunno. I'm currently on Windows - there wasn't really any installation for NDK, just running from the extracted folder. I can post a link to a compiled version of the program, I'm pretty sure someone in another thread posted one.

Is there a way to check CID from the phone? I can't seem to find out how to check it, build prop and whatnot doesn't have anything about it like some places suggest, and can't use fastboot.

Use eMMC brickbug checker on the play store. First 2 numbers of your cid should be 11 or 15. You want 15

i rquest developers to please port g7,g6,g8 v30 rom for our v20.my variant is h990n dual sim.not much development nor porting has been done to this great device it is better than g5/g6.but lack of development support.
I think this kind of post is silly, but in this case it gave me the opportunity to mention something potentially interesting.
There was another dev working on G5 previously, he said that the LG "G7 Fit" would be a great device to make a port from, because
it uses the SD821 (basically the same as g5,g6,v20). The difference is it has much newer LG framework, PIE (probably by now, or soon)
and maybe some other desirable stuff.
Since it's SD821 it will be easy/easier/possible..? to port. IDK, if I could I would try, but I know next to nothing about that stuff.
That was a while ago, 'G7 Fit' didn't have any KDZ available then so he couldn't get the files he needed. They are available now though.
Oh, and this "request" doesn't belong in this subforum I believe.

You are probably right about the thread but first here I want to ask for bounty if you had a look to the kdz. I have not looked but I assume bounty has a bit at least. I told him what you said before and this is what he said.

I have that kdz already but i cant extract it with any available tool tried almost everything any suggestion?
Also @Vortell asker mentioned rom port not mod cause bountyman has made a mod for v20 based on v30 https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/rom-h-rom-g7-port-v1-0-t3855169that's what a rom port looks like not most of the things broken....if you get what i mean!

Both @runningnak3d and Astrako has modified kdztools to extract the newer kdz's. Look at their github.
I wonder if not S.A.L.T. can do it too.

Okay, this just got exciting.
Ok I will try my best to make a mod not rom as I suck at rom making but do have a idea which is to extract files from the rom for the g5 that is ported from g7 so I will force flash it and try to boot then go to twrp and then extract most of the system files to be able to successfully make a mod then flash it on my phone and see if it works hooray! in theory it should
Edit: If I dont boot it will not show me system files (Its ok even if it crashes)
I am asking this question to put it out there to see if this has been in anyone's mind as something possible to do. Do we have any folks smart enough that can modify/edit the checks in the software that keep the software from rolling back or even installing custom roms on our Motorola/Lenovo devices? Remove the checks that check for updates and online and whether its a correct or updated so that it will blindly attempt to put on whatever you throw in the Rom directory at your own risk. I now its a risk but some people just need a tool like this. possible/not possible are there any smart folks out there that have or desire to do this? I would be willing to donate to the cause... anyone else?
