I was rooted and on the Lamlazy ROM trying to get my Note 5 to work on MetroPCS. I wasn't able to get it working so I decided to just sell the phone on Ebay. The buyer requested that I return it to stock Sprint software.
I went into Odin and flashed "ALL_SPT_N920PVPS3BPJ2_N920PSPT3BPJ2_CL9010628_QB11176639_REV00_user_low_ship.tar" that I found online and it went through just fine. However, there is no Sprint bootanimation and all the garbage Spint Bloatware is nowhere to be seen. I even did a factory reset after the Odin flash. Still no Sprint boot or apps. Is it because there is no SIM card in the phone or did I FVCK something up somewhere?
Anyone have any advice at all?

Yeap, I flashed the same firmware thru odin and the same thing, no sprint boot animation nor bloatware but for my understanding that´s a good thing, I mean, no sprint crapware to suck all your battery juice and no 3rd party apps to block them it´s a pretty damn thing.... not sure why you want to have them back...

Jajajajaja, guess your gonna have to flash a different firmware , any other one that don´t have the _user_low_ship.tar.
And just as a note, I also had Lamlazy Rom before going back to stock.
Good luck man!

That´s odd, did you try any other rom to see if it worked, couse for what you can see I´m down here in Mexico and it works like a charm with Lamlazy N7 port 7.3, just did a dirty flash over stock and everything woks great.
go to sammobile to find the official software it will contain everything you need.

Wondering, is this flashable via Odin and would it then be okay to flash back if needed via Odin also?
Just wanted to clarify that because it's technically stock firmware if it increased the flash counter or not

It's a CWM/TWRP flashable package. Don't worry too much about the counter crap. The only time you should ever bother about that is if you have to send your device in.

To clearify mine isn't a rom, its an installable deodex package that deodexes your current rom! So its more a mod.

One thing I didn't like about JanJan version is that there are a number of things we need to flash to make it work.
It doesn't come rooted either.
All I did was flash the KT-Kernal along with the rom, and everythings been running smooth
Sent from my GT-I9505G using xda premium
Oh yessss
But I don't think I'll be flashing of these.
I like the features of TouchWiz, and everything looks great thanks to master Vertumus
I've flashed two separate ROMs so far, and both are completely smooth except for one problem: I can't get mobile data to work.
Wifi works great, and when I'm connected through wifi the signal bars in the status bar turn blue. But as soon as I deactivate wifi, the signals turn grey and all Internet capabilities are lost. So, naturally, as soon as I'm outside of wifi range I can't use the Internet.
I'm still able to send messages and make phone calls.
Could this be a problem with the kTweaker kernel? I'm with Telstra in Australia.

yeah, I don't think they did anything to the camera. It still has that annoying breathing issue with the focus. They might have fixed the Knock Knock issues some people were having with the screen not coming on consistently. I haven't noticed that I have had to double tap multiple times for the screen to come on so far.
The brightness slider is different. If auto is checked you cant move the slider any more.
How long?
How long did the process take? Mine seems to get stuck at downloading software everytime. I don't get a status bar at all.
The actual update took about 10 minutes on a slow computer. Downloading the 1.75GB file took forever.

D85510M Based ROM for D850
Disclaimer:
You need root and custom recovery installed. Your warranty is now null and void. This is for the AT&T G3 D850 only.
I take no responsibility for anything that may go wrong.
ROM Info:
Based on the latest International (Open D85510M) LG G3 ROM. Don't have to deal with AT&T crapware or CarrierIQ
ROM has been stripped of all GApps (download from Google Play) and most of the LG Software (Download from LG Update center).
Updated to latest core GApps.
Root, Busybox and all that good stuff.
Split window for all apps.
Q slide for up to 8 apps.
If GApps crashes upon boot it is just the Google Keyboard, no big deal, it has issues with LG software for some reason. Stock LG Keyboard can be downloaded.
Downloads:
Main Server: Goo.im
Download HERE
File name - ATT_D85510M.zip MD5 - 98930b9b19d51c05ee9553c4ea4f7be2
Credits:
Team Codefire for all their great work to get G3 root and recovery.
If anyone is going to use this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/att.../fix-stock-kernel-oversharpening-fix-t2951883
then make sure you use the kernel for the D850.

I think renaming the ROM to 850 would help make the download and file sitting on your PC more clear.

CAUTION with 5.1.1 UpdateG925PVPU2B0F7I've been spending some time reading T-mobiles issues with the update. This isn't a super new conversation, but is probably new to many Sprint users. The update appears have rollback protection, which effects both kernel and bootloader from what they are saying... Which I find slightly confusing since I didn't think that their was a locked bootloader on the US versions (maybe someone can assist with that)
Figured we could start the conversation early for Custom Root/Recovery/etc. users, so that we may save some of us some trouble with Soft/Hard brinks in the next week or so.
This is the thread I've been looking at.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s6-edge/general/psa-odin-5-1-1-t3136151
EDIT:
NO, the bootloader is not locked with the 5.1.1 update.
Rather, "Factory Reset Protection" (an Android thing - not a Samsung thing!) is now an option, which allows you to lock the bootloader yourself, protecting your device from someone installing a custom recovery, wiping your device and making it their own. It makes the device somewhat less valuable, and therefore (supposedly) less likely to be stolen.
The 5.1.1 upgrade looks to be a "permanent" upgrade, meaning we're not able to revert back to 5.0.2 kernels and recoveries.
So, I would suggest to sit tight with your current set up. In order to customize our devices we will need to wait for:
A) Root for 5.1.1
-Root has been achived: http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...elopment/5-1-1-stock-of7-kernel-root-t3153396
B) Samsung to post the source code for the new kernel.
C) Custom Recovery
-Recovery has been achived:
Once we have the above, we can get back to modding our devices.
If I'm wrong, someone please correct me.
Interesting article, I remember several other older Samsung devices where you could not downgrade bootloaders and modems. IE Galaxy S3, note 3, s5. But there was still root, Roms and the ability to flash kernels. Hopefully there's no need to go back anyway. The kernel thing is something new so I may hold off on upgrading. Thanks for the info

This is my first Samsung, so the whole root recovery process was almost too smooth since I've been on the HTC side for 5 years. Unlocking bootloaders, S-off and requesting tokens to push.. Ugh, as must as I likes HTC and Sense, that sucked.
I think I'm holding off as well, untill Sac23/ Ram9200 might have spare time to look over the update first and make sense of it all and could at least get it to where V.2 is right now. But it sounds like the Kernel could be our hold up, without Hybridmax's current support.

Yea but based off of my years of experience and having Samsung devices, I'm pretty sure that someone will find a way moving forward, but going back probably won't happen. I too had an HTC evo years back lol and I couldn't stand the root process. I feel your pain. But yea it may be wise just to wait for a while on the update

This platform was dead before it started. Sorry to say. They can't get root with a locked bootloader. Verizon won't do it.

There are many Android experts that could unlock the bootloader Right ? Is it how it works ??? If yes that means they could unlock it ..

My understanding, not as a programmer by any means...is that the phone needs to have an unlocked bootloader prior to even having the ability to gain root. If the service provider (Verizon) doesn't unlock this, root cannot happen in a traditional sense. Carriers such as T-Mobile have a root for this phone as they come with unlocked bootloaders. You wont see root on the Verizon variant.

no there isnt hope unless u figure it out the "experts" have tried time and time again
the bootloaders arent locked they are signed with a very special key that would take ever computer together in the worl roughly 200000 years plus to brute force into. verizon and att are the worst
now you all know. as said before if u wanted to root you should have studied before buying a "locked" device
if u want root either get a rootable device or figure it out on your own
as with the g4 there will more than likely never be root for these "locked" devices
not being an ass just the cold hard truth

they cant unlock the bootloader or it would have been done
lgs verity key prevents this through qfused motherboards highly encrypted partitions that the bootloader verifys and if one thing is off bam lg secure boot error.
which again is basicly hardcoded into the device.
no one is going to waste their time trying a 99.9% impossible feat
The phone is just not popular enough the Verizon Galaxy S7 I believe is unlocked for the bootloader. If the phone is popular enough a developer will work on it.

This is old 99% of these G5s are now on 7.0 or higher and cannot roll back
Anyone try this yet?
I found a link dated march 28th 2018. It was called Install TWRP Recovery and Root LG G5 on Android Nougat on **********.c** I cant post links. I'm new to the forum. I wanna try it but im scared because im a noob and dont really know what im doing.
Please let me know if you have tried or know someone who has. Thanks
Hi,
Has anyone ever tried one click root dot com ? They explicitly mention that they can root the vs987 variant. I'm willing to pay if someone can confirm me that it really works...
Thanks

You need to be on marshmallow or have anti-rollback to be 0 which <1% of ppl have. Also, it's not a complete root, so although you have root permissions, it's unstable and you have no root manager (SuperSU/Magisk/etc.)
