I feel you man, I tried using lgup which didn't work. There's a thread I need the main G5 forum for the h850 and idk if it works but let me know what you find out!

Keep us posted on further progress. I'm interested too.

I'd like to roll back to MM just to get rid of the freaking problems Nougat brings with it. Irritates me to death.

T-Mobile Note Edge 5.1.1 OTA update - Can you root?

Has anyone successfully rooted the T-Mobile 5.1.1 OTA update? When I see things like "You can not downgrade from 5.1.1" I get nervous that T-Mobile may be jumping on the signed bootloader bandwagon like AT&T....so I keep postponing it.

lg v10 downgrade from mm to lollipop

Ok so I got a lg v10 h900 it has already been updated to mm and I'm wondering if there's any way to go bk to lollipop
I am guessing you are trying to go back for root right? Well, you cannot go back. It will not work, and you will brick your device in the process. Don't worry, me and LGMono are working on getting root for MM right now, we are VERY close if this TOT is authentic...
Any root for the h900 yet

Zvnexus... I humbly and respectfully ask if you've made progress since your post in June? I haven't seen any major announcement, so probably not. But maybe, just maybe, you've made some progress to share???
I ask as an ATT security update is being announced on my phone.

Oh, I stopped working on this phone a little while ago, I do not care enough about this phone to continue working on it. I am sorry. But if anyone finds anything viable, I would be more than happy to help
Hey all! Good news! A 9-year-old bug called the "Dirty Cow" exploit still exists in the Linux/Android kernel can easily grant root on any Android phone!!! See the video below.
http://www.xda-developers.com/9-year...on-of-android/
So there's another bug to exploit for root and even possibly unlocking the bootloader! The bug has been fixed recently in Linux but hasn't been rolled into Android yet. If anyone can get this working on my AT&T LG V10 (running Marshmallow) I'll give a reward of $50! Plus you'll be my hero! Now get crackin!

Will the Stylo 1 get Nougat 7.0 or possibly 7.1?

Will the Stylo 1 get Nougat 7.0 or possibly 7.1? if so, when? and if it does, will it overhaul the ugly looking UI and make it look as good as the Stylo 2/ LG G5? Thanks
Which model/carrier do you have?
I doubt it but the T-Mobile/MetroPCS version is more likely to get it than the other versions (better specs), IF (and that is a BIG IF) we do get it.
Again, I highly doubt it because it had its one update. I hope they surprise me though.

I have the MetroPCS Version of it, and it is a secondary phone for rooting and stuff. I have the latest update of 6.0MM rooted and unlocked, so...
I wouldn't hold my breath.

Lg v10 h900 downgrade????

Hello I have an LG V10 H900 (AT&T) and I want to downgrade my device to Lollipop (5.0) is there anyway possible?
I never backed up device when I was on Android 5.0. I have LGUP and ADB Fastboot, but I don't have the kdz or tot and dll file for android 5.0 for the LG V10 H900 (AT&T Version). Could someone please help me downgrade my Android smart phone to 5.0? I'd much appreciate.

What you're asking for cannot be done since it will brick your phone. Completely. Once any of us upgraded to MM, we were screwed. So, at this point, we're stuck on MM, with no development because of the locked bootloader, and it is very unlikely that att will upgrade us to Nougat.
Stick with very stock MM or go phone shopping in December.

I'm sorry for the delay in replying. I do not know why you're having the troubles that you're having. All of that works fine for me after the ota update.
I would contact Lg explaining the issues that you are having.
Thanks
Thanks for replying, I value it sir.
I am located at Pakistan, so, I wasn't entertained by OTA, so, I have to upgrade through manual procedure with the help of LGUP software. I was went good, but after restarting, I said troublig me with the said issues. I hope so that LG will reply you with due importance.
Thanks for the help.

I have the same proble, what did you do?
Does the rootedH900TOT or rootedsystemh900.tot not work if you're already on marshmallow? Both of the files are on xda. Also if I try to flash an earlier version of marshmallow will it brick the phone? Or does brick only happen if you try to flash a major OS? like 6.0 -> 5.1? Thanks

Hello!
I want to try the project treble so i need to update my phone to oreo but i don't know how to do. I don't know so much information about rom flashing.

HWOTA stuck on press enter to continue and second method didnt work because i live in Turkey.
I have MHA-L29C432B182
Can anyone please explain how to do it properly? Like i said i dont know much.
Thank you.

Might be best, to WAIT until it comes to you in the official channel, since you don't know much.
No offense, but you can brick your phone, if you don't know what you are doing.
