ok ill explain the best i can for you.
Lets say for example that the bootloader was unlocked for the flex 2, if we downgraded with the current method that I did, then youll end up with a brick BECAUSE...after the 5.1.1 update, the bootloader was also updated, but if we had an unlocked bootloader, it would be no problem because then you can get right into fastboot since the bootloader is unlocked. however the reason my flex 2 bricked was because you cant downgrade bootloaders unless there is a specific way to do so, and if its unlocked...well since mine wasnt on the flex 2, when i flashed the TOT from ZV5 OVER a ZV6 bootloader, the rest of the partitions flashed, except for the bootloader end of it because it returned a "Version on phone is currently newer than the one being flashed" and declined the flash, since ZV5 wasnt build around the ZV6 bootloader, it doesnt know how or what to boot..
thats just a simple version, going into specifics is the Devs department, but in lamen terms, thats whats going on..if we had an unlocked bootloader it wouldnt be an issue because we could flash an older bootloader without the phone rejecting it. but once root is achieved on 5.1.1 then there will be a way to restore the FLex 2, the G3 you have although it may not have an unlocked bootloader, its been out for long enough to where exploits have been discovered, but if youre referring to upgrading and downgrading on Custom Roms, thats not the same thing, its only for official TOT's and KDZs or Official LG Firmware.
it would be like trying to flash a sprint variant with a tmobile rom....its just not built for it, its like having a Ford mustang with a V6 and trying to put a V8 motor in it without changing the computer/wire harness etc. it will fit...but it just wont work.
did that help for you to understand?

Ya i understand that part... Ive dealt with bricked phones... Ive recovered all but one.... Why are some able to downgrade though... In another thread soomeones says hes gone back aand forth a couplw times... Thats why i was confused..
So there's no way to root the Sprint lg g flex 2 (ls996) once it's on 5.1.1? Because we can't downgrade right? Wish I knew this before I bought one off Swappa.

Yeah I don't regret buying the g flex 2 considering I got it for $260 on Swappa. Really happy I got top of the line hardware for this price. I'm sure root will come or maybe a way to unlock bootloader so we can downgrade.

How much money did you pay for that?
Phone ? under warranty so I didn't pay anything
Also I didn't tell them I was upgrading to MM
Just I said the phone its keeping restarting…
Not to offend anyone, but the fault is not from Huawei. You guys keep trying to install updates that may not be meant for your phone. Can only blame yourself. If it's not at OTA update, just don't risk it!
Mine runs great on B130 kitkat with unlock and root.

I totally agree. But if there is any as*hole like me that wants to try a beta build, there should be a rollback alternative, right? Yeah, it's not very productive to blame the brand, but the brand should cover different scenarios in case people go full re__rd and install unverified software on their phones.
So recently I was flashing the stock kdz on my T-moible lg g stylo when the usb was removed off the device during flashing . I tried to turn it back on but i got no response just a black screen. is a smartboot tool like the lg g3 had to fix this? or should I send it to lg moible repair. :crying:
i need help with this as well. i'm about to smash this phone on the wall and then burn pieces and then put some acid on the ashes
I made a guide on how to get the backup we need (might work) to revive our phones but seems nobody in this community wants to help
wheres the guide at ?
Ironically I got the phone back from repair and I wanted to flash the stock rom v10j and I now I bricked it again :crying: now im back sending it to LG mobile repair . Demsee now i feel your pain note to self apparently lg will flash a newer boot stack on the device its kinda like a anti roll back.
How much was it to send it in?

Can you please make a dump of 20G when you get it back?
HERE is the guide I mentioned before.
When you update to 20G there isnt a way to go back thats what happened to me. I was on 20G and tried to go back to 20C just for testing and fullbricked my phone.
Thanks in advance.
Its was free to fix cause I had my warranty. But all i paid was to ship it which was like 7.99
Kindly understand the scenario 1st.
Your Board is VS990 but It Comes With a ROM of H900 Lollipop. NO OTA Update.
And LGUP or LG Flash Tool wont let you flash a VS990 KDZ/TOT over H900.
02 Things Needed here. 1st Is LG Generic Custom LGUP_8974.dll and
2nd you have to Edit the file in hex editor.
Open VS990 TOT File and search for LG-VS990
Change
LG-VS990 = LG-H900 (Conversion) (Becuase Current Rom is H900, We will Deceive LG Check Thats a H900 file is being flashed which is actually a VS990 File)
Direct Overwrite no deleting.
You have to Direct Overwrite the file.
Although its the procedure OF Cross File Flashing.
But AS LAF (Download Mode) Recovery and other files are Of H900 so After Flashing VS990 The Mobile can be Hard Bricked to Qualcomm 9008 Which have no Solution Yet.
I dont Recomend IT. On devices higher then G2 and G3 (D851 Also Not supported in LG Board Diagnostics)

You have to over write the model no. In hex editor. Adding or deleting will change hex value. So file wont be flashed.
Successful flash can also lead to hard brick. LG Board diagnostic cant de-brick models higher then G3.

Okay, i saw also that people commented that they got hard brick. Is there anything i can do with the 20w rom to get my fingerprint scanner back? or just buy a new phone and call an end to it? If so i was thinking about the V20. Should be good for root and such right?
Hello Murshad007 and others,
it seems that you have a risky solution about the MM H900/VS990 - VPN -Fingerprint-foced-close issue with h90021w.
I also have the bugs after flashing "web_h90021w_00_0921.kdz" on my AT&T H900 with VS990 Mainboard (I have checked like in the Video).
1.) Where exactly can I Identify more "Frankenstein" parts?
2.) Which part configuration did you try successfull without hard brick?
3) If you had a hard brick, how did you recover exactly?? Would I need a programmer device like Medusa or a JTAG or is it possible to make the Frankenstein alive without spending 150$? Because that is the Phone's price ?
4) Could you maybe make a Tutorial or link any recover after brick solutions/possibilities please??
Now the phone is absolutly useless, so if I brick it, there won't be a big difference.
I would be verry happy to get some help fixing my new 30th birthday present
Thanks in advance

Murshad please help us out with more precise tutorial on how to successfully edit firmware for cross flashing. Thanks

i have been scouring all over the forums to no avail, and i think the ansswer maybe really simple, some members have found the correct way but are just beating the bush cause they want money, and that too, way more than the price of the motherboard, which is less than 50$ u.s now,
I was successful in bringing it from the dead (H901 to h900} but the lack of security and fingerprint is really proving troublesome not to say the lack of Sim connectivity,

I`m trying to do this on an lg g6 but as you know lg dev is no more so no more bootloader unlock for me kindly help,as it1s very intriguing for me
Hi guyzz I think I've found a solution to the following problems:
1. VS990 board with H900 or H901 software.
2. Settings app crashes, Fingerprint sensor doesn't work, uninstalling an app causes soft boot
But I need help. So anyone willing please comment below.
P.S. as usual this is an experimental solution, so please try at your own risk.
Step 1: I need someone to put their phone in [Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008], because to my understanding this is the lowest level hardware control for the emmc in qualcomm evices.
Step 2: Once in this mode we need to follow the qfil solution to recover from the hardbrick and install the VS990 software.
But as I'm new to this, I've only found one way of entering the mode. (can't add the image due to xda restrictions -_- please help me with posting the image link )
If there is a software way to do this too, please comment below.
I have the same problem.
I tried many solutions but nothing better.
What is your solution ?

Hi, sorry for the late reply. But my solution is very very risky. It involves willingly hard bricking your phone and just flashing the device with VS990 software using the Q-fil method. But I need testers to actually prove that it works in general and not just on my phone.
But as I mentioned it is very very dangerous. So, unless you have the phone just lying around; I wouldn't suggest it.
OK,
I would try. Now phone is usless.

I'm more than willing to try.
I also have to mention that the ARB is not just in the system, it's also somehow modifying the hardware. I have 2 H900 (both are VS990) boards. One of them is 5.1 rooted, the other is H90021w. I put the 5.1's emmc on the other board and not working. Then I flash the H90021w on the former 5.1's emmc, the phone is working. I won't put the H90021w emmc to the other board as it will ruin the board.
Note: I have a medusa pro box, so I can flash the 90021w anytime if it's bricking.

lg v10 h900&901
Hey, I'm really interested on how this turns out.
So from what I'm understanding, the idea is to get the LG V10 AT&T software flashed (with verizon motherboard) into usb qloader mode, and then to flash the verizon software or the original LG V10 H900 unto it?
I'd say its worth a go, but I don't have a medusa box in case it goes wrong ^^

I've try the very possible way I can think of.
I've take out the EMMC and put a H900 lollipop inside it, not working. Not even any other FW will working, whether VS990 or H901, not after we put H90021w on it. And if I put that EMMC with android 5.1 on another VS990 board, which H90021w is never run on it, it's working fine.
I really suspect the ARB of H90021w is making physical changes on the board, and then only H90021w will working and probably newer FW too. I think that's our only chance. If we can find someone with newer FW willing to help, we can try it. Please check https://forum.xda-developers.com/att-lg-v10/general/calling-help-h90021z-h90022b-firmware-t3881691
Hi and thanks for the support. But due to utter desperation I got rid of the phone about 3 months ago. Now here is all of my research.
1. Get into HS USB mode by holding down both vol up+down....
2. Get QFIL to flash and it should work... P.S. flash proper ones... also dont flash versions below the one that it got messed up with
P.S. I did have a guy try out the board pinching method to get into HS USB... and somehow he got into fastboot and then I got out of contact with him

I know.... but my solution was... as you get into EDL mode all security goes to hell (theoretically) so theoretically you should be able top flash the original ROM that was meant for that specific motherboard, and not the one that was eventually installed during refurbish process
Now technically this should get rid of the unable to uninstall apps and the fingerprint bug....

Maybe.. but the option is very limited on H900. And if we flash the H90021w firmware, there;s no way back.
Basically I really suggest anybody outside US to avoid buying an AT&T phones.
I need to add. Contrary to many believe here, motherboard with VS990 code may not only for verizon, but Tmo and AT&T as well. I've open many V10's board, not once I found H901 or H900 printed on the motherboard (many VS990 and a few F600). Even those H901 which working normally and able to run on the latest official nougat KDZ, are on VS990 boards too.

Is there a way to identify for what deviceversion the version of VS990 board one might have really is.
