I Think I Might Have Ruined My Moto G...

Hey, everyone. This is probably going to be pretty long-winded. I do apologize, but also ask that you read carefully and thoroughly before posting.
Pertinent Information:
Model: XT1032
Carrier: Consumer Cellular
Background Information:
A long while back I decided to root my phone so I could remove all of the useless applications I never used that just ate up what limited space this phone has. Everything went successfully.
A couple (or maybe a few) months ago I noticed that Android 5.1 was available for install. I wasn't aware that you needed to remove root access before doing an OTA update, and proceeded to brick my phone. I then followed a guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2700502) to flash back to stock firmware, thus removing root access, and afterwards, applied the OTA update successfully.
What I didn't notice was that the guide was for the XT1033, but, the phone still worked just fine. I could make / send and receive calls / texts, use my WiFi, etc. The only issues were that my data didn't seem to work at all, and my phone's internal memory was about 80% full, and only ~500MB of that was from my downloaded applications... Weird, right?
New Information:
Today I decided I was going to do a factory reset. I was no longer able to update or download applications because the Google Play Store would stop responding every single time. Also, I was sick of my phone's memory being so full, for seemingly no reason. Well, the factory reset failed to complete, and left my phone bricked; it wouldn't go past the unlocked bootloader warning screen.
I then did some research and fiddling around with a new guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/gpe-ota-lrx21z-5-0-1-xt1033-xt1032-t2969847). After following the instructions, which I found to be quite confusing, actually), I ended up back on Android 4.4.4, with a non-functional network. I used the XT1032 US GSM modem he linked in Step 6, since my phone's from the US, but maybe it was the wrong one? I also tried some different modems / radios from the linked posts in that part of the guide, but they didn't work either.
So, I followed a new guide for installing Lollipop 5.1 GPE via a 1-click batch file (http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/gpe-lollipop-5-1-1click-installer-t3075522), and it seemed to work... Except my network no longer worked; the phone wasn't recognizing my SIM card. I tried downloading and installing a couple of different US XT1032 modems / radios to no avail.
Next, I took a shot in the dark and flashed back to the Android 5.0.2 XT1033 firmware from before, and now, it works fine... Kind of. The network functions again like it it did before, and the memory is pretty much empty (4.61GB of 5.55GB free) as it should be. The only problem is that the Android 5.1 OTA update has failed twice now, and the phone's not rooted again yet.
My Questions:
1) Why is my network functioning on an XT1033 firmware when my phone's an XT1032, yet on an XT1032 firmware it doesn't function?
2) Why can I suddenly not do the Android 5.1 OTA update like I could before?
3) Why did the Lollipop 5.1 GPE 1-click method leave me with a non-functioning network?
4) Why was my memory so full the last time I installed the Android 5.0.2 XT1033 firmware, yet now it's empty like it should be?
I'm beyond confused right now, and trying very, very hard not to throw my phone into the lake (which I can from the window right in front of me). I just want to use the latest version of Android, NOT have my phone's memory be ridiculously full, and have a functional network.

Have you tried installing CyanogenMod? https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?type=nightly&device=falcon you're going to need a custom recovery I use twrp https://dl.twrp.me/xt1032/
Also need a GApps package I use the Micro Modular Package http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/tk-gapps-t3116347

No, I've never tried CyanogenMod. It seems complicated, what with the nightly updates and what not.

I'll consider looking into it, but I'd still like to, at the very least, get the answers to my questions regarding what the hell is going on with my phone right now...

Okay, what the hell...
I just installed the latest CyanogenMod 12.1 Nightly, along with the latest GApps 5.1.1 Micro Modular Package, and I have no service!

Do you happen to have a link to such a Baseband? Because I don't know too much about this stuff.
Is the Baseband the NON-HLOS.bin and/or fsg.mbn file(s)? If so, I have a couple of XT1032 firmwares of various Android versions; can I use one of them?

WHOA! I HAVE SERVICE!
On a whim, I decided to try flashing an XT1032 Baseband based on what I thought the files were, and it worked!
What I Did:
1) Flashed NON-HLOS.bin and fsg.mbn from a US_Retail_XT1032_KXB21.14-L1.32_CFC.xml.zip file I have.
2) Fastboot erased modemst1 and modemst2, then rebooted; voila!
I wasn't sure or not if those were the Baseband files, but I figured I couldn't make things any worse, lol.
EDIT: I'm still on the latest version of CyanogenMod at the moment, which also has the latest version of Lollipop.

Well, thank you so much, man! Now I've got everything working, AND I'm loving CyanogenMod so far too.
1) I'm on Android 5.1.1
2) I've got CyanogenMod
3) My memory isn't super full
4) My service works
The only weird thing is when I plug my phone into my computer, it says "XT1033." Then, in my phone's settings (About Phone > Device Model) it says "Moto G." Lol.

I've heard that before. Fastboot flashing a full firmware image might help to get it back to "XT1032". But I wouldn't do that, if everything else works fine

Find your provider's APN data and create a new APN entry in the settings.
Maybe those will work -> http://bestmvno.com/apn-settings/apn-settings-for-consumer-cellular/

I had to do some digging to find where and how to change APN Settings in my phone, but once I found them, I was a little shocked; there are a lot of them! There's a list of about 15 different APNs in my phone!
That seemed a little unusual, so I looked for a way to reset them or something, and found a thread that talked about how to delete their database file with a Root Explorer. I went ahead and did so, then rebooted my phone, to find that they had all come back! Then I discovered you can reset them to default right from the APN Settings page; I did that, but they were all still there, LOL.
I'll give these a try, but I'm not expecting them to work, honestly. Perhaps I need to call my carrier and see if they can help me out. Although, if I tell them I rooted and flashed my phone, they probably won't.

Xperia bootloop upgrading to 5.1.1 (FTF D2303 Generic UK 18.6.A.0.182)?

The last thing I remember flashing was Clockword Mod 11 last year, ever since then I have been running Firmware build 18.3.1.C.1.15. Upon seeing an update for my phone for Firmware build 18.3.1.C.1.17 I attemted to download it and kept getting the message "Cannot Verify" so after trying this out on PC Companion and relocking my bootloader I was still running into problems. So the simplest thing I could think of is to use Flashtool and flash the latest ftf from there (Firmware 18.6.A.0.182 - obtained from XperiFirm), at first I didnt think it was a problem to not wipe USER_DATA as I just thought of it as an upgrade, if that failed I persumed I would have to wipe everything (this didnt matter much anyway). So I went ahead and flashed the rom however when I went to boot my mobile I got a bootloop "Android is optimising apps xxx of xxx" this went on forever untill I cut the power using a pin. So I tried it again this time wiping everything and still the same problem :crying: . Then I came across people on the forums to use the older FlashTool verison 0.9.18.6 since the new FSC feature can cause probelms, this time I tried it again however I used the older Firmware 18.6.A.0.172 just to be failsafe. Still the same problem. Right then I was thinking Emma would save my phone so I went and applied the 4.4.4 Firmware 18.3.1.C.1.15 service (Which I had to begin with) but for some reason this seemed to have little effect despite trying it twice and reciving a "Sucessful Flash" message. Now I am left very confused as it is still booting in the lollipop style (optimising apps loop) even though I flashed a KitKat rom. I have been left without my phone all day because of this, any help would be STRONGLY APPRICIATED! . Thanks for your time

#1 Open your bootloader again
#2 Install TWRP (See 5.1.1 root topic for installation/guide)
#3 Open TWRP Wipe all data
#4 Reboot into recovery
#5 Flash any custom rom like Cyanogenmod through TWRP
Post results please this is fixable It's seems It's a soft brick which is an easy fix
What i think is you had corrupt data/left over data and after you relocked bootloader something went wrong after flashing. Though flashing should wipe all data let's see

Re-flash ftf wiping data and caches, you must do this if going from 4.4.4 to 5.1 and From 5.1 to 4.4.4 due to changes in runtime from dalvik to art and other changes.

How to get near enough stock?
Thanks for your replies, when I flashed the ftf's I did tick all the boxes under 'Wipe' on FlashTool, when that failed so did emma. I can try flashing CWM however the main purpose of this was for me to upgrade to Lollipop as I wanted a near enough stock experiance (Considering Z5 Rom) with root. When I tried CWM before there were a few things that I just coulnt get used to. Is there any way that I could use recovery to flash a stock rom with the lastest Lollipop releese or Z5 experiance as I have backups on PCC that I have to restore (Important contacts, media etc...) and I dont really want to use a CWM based rom . I wouldnt mind to flash Z5 however I dont know if this is possiable could you guys comfirm this? Thanks for your time .

[Update] TWRP recovery is working!
I have followed this thread to update my Recovery - TWRP 2.8.7.0 .
Many Thanks to @linuxct for the straight forward instructions and @ARandomIndian for putting me in the correct direction :highfive: .
Im just unsure if I can flash Z5 Experiance Rom now. Is it possiable despite my android being messed? I have already wiped data, is it okay to just go and flash? .

Don't worry you're android is not messed up, let's do this to fix it back to regular :-
Before starting i highly recommend you charge your phone to have atleast 50+% battery and use the official cable provided also make sure the cable is firmly inplace,
#1 Enter Recovery, wipe all data
#2 Download Stock 5.1.1 i think you like that so get that (Make sure it is for your D2303 or whatever your model is)
#3 Install latest flashtools with latest patch (Or later versions if you don't want to risk it)
#4 Go to the location of flashtools (installation directory) for me it is C:\Flashtool\drivers Open the exe file there, select the 2 Flashmode and Fastboot drivers install them.
#5 Flash the ftf using flashtools

Yes but this does not seem normal, the first boot always freezes on the wave animation. It then restarts by itsself and optimises upto so many for example 64 of 200 and then freezes and restarts with a different ammount like 90 of 194. This didnt seem normal to me, is this okay?
Edit: I have left it running for almost 40 min now. Every time just before it seems to freeze and reboot it never reaches the end of the ammount say 60 of 200. I'm becoming very doubtful that it is going to work . But I just remembered a while back that I flashed a custom boot img to get recovery and root in my last working state. Maybe this has somthing to do with it?
Really need my phone working now :| If anyone can help please do! Thanks!

I tried flashing the Z5 experiance rom, I followed the instructions on the rom page (Used TWRP). However this time when it booted it did not say "Optimising Android" but it still did boot loop after the wave animation. I also tried flashing the older firmware but that did the same loop again, I also have been looking for alternative ftf's online becuase I also had the suspicion of a corroupted ftf however there are no Customized UK roms availble. I really am stuck now, my phone seems to be more messed up than I thought. . Any more Ideas?

If your bootloader is unlocked did you update it before flashing anything? If not this is why

I flashed that very bootloder before I flashed the Lollipop ftf I booted my phone and the same thing happend, so I tried it again this time flashing afterwards an still booting with the same damn screen . Was I definatly using the correct bootloader or am I missing out anything when flashing? My phones rebooted like 5 times now for the 'optimisation' and its getting nowhere .
Shall I fire up my classic Nokia 5230 with custom Symbian to record a video so you guys can see what happens when it boots?

Yes, everything in the 'Wipe' section was ticked, infact before I flashed it again I also wiped Dalvik, cache, data and system in TWRP.

So I just flashed CWM 12.1 and its all running fine for some reason the Wifi doesnt work but atleast I can use this untill we find what the problem is. Do you guys know why my WiFi isnt working? But more importantly why does CWM work and stock rom doesnt?!
Edit: The reason the WiFi isnt working has to be a problem with the kernal as far as I can see, this also suggests that the kernal could be incompatable with Lollipop as it wasnt designed to support it? Correct me if im wrong but if this is the case where can I download the official latest kernal? If someone could confirm this by checking my kernal version above that would be great! Thanks!
I previously updated my kernal here the one that says [new]. If you look at post #8 you will see that this kernal has a problem with WiFi in CWM "As I suspected, in kernel modules there's no WiFi module (wlan.ko), I think that that's the reason why WiFi is not working.

Can somebody please give his QCN file from Redmi 4? I need to fix my baseband and IMEI... Thank you.

Clean android....
Hello, i'm new user on this forums. I have very big problem with my device.
I got second model of Redmi 4, first one had malfunction of SIM module (after instaling CM 13), and device wasnt detecting SIM's at all (what more interesting SD cards was detected) on both slots. After service i got brand new Redmi 4, installed CyanogenMod 13 as only properly working OS* and starting to have the same issue.
*So now let me explain why i threat CM 13 as only working OS - it uses battery as it should. On every MIUI (which seems to not be official) including MIUI 9 my battery just drain. For example with 1-2 hours of daily usage on CM my battery can keep 7-14 days, which is perfect resoult, while on MIUI even unused device is keeping max 4 days, and battery usage says Android OS and android (process names) eat 40 % of battery (sometimes up to 56%). I'm installing OS by full wipe, so its not the case of files remaining from older OS.
NOW final question to all specialists here - from where can i get CELAN ANDROID MARSHMALOW or NOUGAT for my model (Redmi 4 prada)? Installation as i understand properly is the same as in case of ROM right (TWRP) or maybe flash?
Please answear, i'm looking over internet 2 months right now, and spending all my free time after job on unsuccessfull searching for help.

Hello,
After I flashed my phone to MIUI 9 (can't remember which one - so many I tried), I got the success message on MiFlashTool, but my phone didn't restart. It was dead.
I mananged to revive it but I had lost many sensors, like wi-fi, bluetooth, etc. I managed to fix those and then I was getting an error about IMEI (can't ID the device) or something like that. Basically my IMEI was gone. I found a fix for that. The phone can now detect the SIM card.
My issue is that it can't connect to the GSM network of my carrier.
I double checked the APN settings - they are good. When I dial *#*#4636#*#* I see the 'turn radio on' button but it doesn't do anything.
Switching back and forth between different versions of MIUI did not help. I tried flashing the NON HLOS bin file via command prompt, I got the okay message, but it didn't fix the problem. I tried flashing the 3 modem files via TWRP, again, it didn't fix my problem.
They talk about restoring EFS on a thread, but I don't know how to do that or if that will help. I don't have the back up files anyways for EFS.
Can anyone help?
Currently I am on CyanogenMod 13 (OS 6.0.1).
Thanks
Andrei

After I flashed my phone to MIUI 9 (can't remember which one - so many I tried), I got the success message on MiFlashTool, but my phone didn't restart. It was dead.
I mananged to revive it but I had lost many sensors, like wi-fi, bluetooth, etc. I managed to fix those and then I was getting an error about IMEI (can't ID the device) or something like that. Basically my IMEI was gone. I found a fix for that. The phone can now detect the SIM card.
My issue is that it can't connect to the GSM network of my carrier.
I double checked the APN settings - they are good. When I dial *#*#4636#*#* I see the 'turn radio on' button but it doesn't do anything.
Switching back and forth between different versions of MIUI did not help. I tried flashing the NON HLOS bin file via command prompt, I got the okay message, but it didn't fix the problem. I tried flashing the 3 modem files via TWRP, again, it didn't fix my problem.
They talk about restoring EFS on a thread, but I don't know how to do that or if that will help. I don't have the back up files anyways for EFS.
Can anyone help?
Currently I am on CyanogenMod 13 (OS 6.0.1).
Thanks
Andrei

Wow, you really mess up bro...
Let's see... First I advise you to flash the official fastboot ROM from the official forum and see if boot normaly.
If not, you can try unbrick the phone by 'test points'.

Hey
Thanks. The phone boots normally, everything works except for the radio. All commands for the radio can't be changed. If I do *#*#4636 phone information, I see my SIM Card, it shows my carrier (Rogers). WHen I click the 3 little buttons to select the band it shows unknown and lists a few options, including the one I think it the one I need (GSM 850/1900 - i'm in Canada). When I select that band it shows unsuccessful....What can it be?

I must admit that is out of my league.. Sorry
You saying the radio is turned off and can't receive calls? You don't have signal?
In the 'Phone Information', in the button of the page, there is a option that say 'Turn Radio On/OFF', try it.
But... You say you have some modem files, right? If is the same I used when I change to a custom ROM, maybe can help. Try flashing that files in TWRP.

Sorry, I remember now one thing...
Which fastboot ROM you use? China Stable or Dev?
Try use the Dev ROM and in Miflashtool, select 'Clean All' option.
Hope this work

Then only by test points, don't see any other options.. At least for now..

What is the benefit of using test points vs fastboot?
Thanks

Well... The test points is more for when the phone is really mess up, phone don't boot, not enter the 'fastboot', etc... normally know as 'hard brick'. It's the "ultimate" recovery.
In the PM I send to you, there is a link to a post in the official forum explaining where, and 'how to' do.
But... If you are not comfortable doing that, then, don't do.
Anyway... I can't help you more, sorry
Try asking in the official forum for help. They are more active than here.

Unofficial Cyanogenmod 13 / Android 6.0.1 - Lenovo A850​
This is a CM13 rom for our Lenovo A850. This is NOT MY WORK, I found it on this russian forum/post. Unfortunately, i couldn't find further information about the developer since I read the forum through google translate
This is a pure android 6.0.1 and not a looklike rom.
Code:
#include
/*
* Your warranty is now void.
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
*/
Photos:
Bugs: My problems are...
• I have tried installing Magisk and SuperSu without success (because CM13 is already rooted)
• Lattest Xposed libraried are not working (old may not too)
• Can't always get into recovery using both volume and power buttons (go through the power menu)
• When in the recovery and rebooting into system the phone closes (unplug the batery and reboot it)
• Default (CM) file-manager sometimes craches (for no reason)
• Reboot just powers down the device
• DO NOT INSTALL GRENIFY, you will get into bootloop
• Did you found anything else? Do you know how we can fix the above?
Instructions:
0. MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP! This ROM doesn't do well with you NVRAM... You will probably need to restore your IMEI, your Serial Number would be lost, your Mac Address etc. So... backup.
1. Download the "Lenovo A850 cm13.rar" file from here (there is also a CM12 version, i haven't try it)
2. Google Apps are not installed so you can download them from the Open Gapps Project (ARM->6.0->Any version) or from the above link.
3. Un-rar the "Lenovo A850 cm13.rar" file. The TWRP recovery that is included is translated in Russian (can't change to English) so replace the "recovery.img" file with this View attachment recovery.img that i have cooked (English version).
4. Flash the rom to your phone (there are a lot of videosout there about this)
5. Boot phone and BOOM, CM13/Android 6.0.1!!!!
6. To enable root access or reboot to recovery, open Settings->About->Tap "Build number" many times to unlock Developer Options->go back->Developer Options->Check "Advance reboot" and change "Root access"
7. Keep pressing power button -> reboot -> recovery -> flash Gapps
IMEI Problems/Fixes:
You can fix the IMEI with:
- With MobileUncle (follow these steps)
- Tool Hero (the update of MobileUncle), after that uninstall it.
- Else... if you don't know that you can run IMEI&SN Writer V1.5.3, flash this ROM and try to run it (setup drivers etc). Then FORMAT the phone (with flashtool click format,auto), and flash (click download this time) this ROM(the same with the first link), and then change the IMEI etc with IMEI&SN Writer V1.5.3.

Yes I am already using it, well not daily since its not my main phone. Flashtool is included so it doesn't mater what rom you already have (ROW or CN), you just flash it. I think the ROM is CN though. Additionally, i have tried installing Magisk or SuperSu without a success because CM13 is already rooted. I couldn't change it. What is more, lattest Xposed libraried are not working too (phone freezes and reboots on apk open). Also, i couldn't get into recovery using volume and power button, i am accessing it through the power menu (reboot into recovery). To conclude, when I am in the recovery and I choose to reboot into system the phone closed but I have to unplug the batery and reboot it.

how about battery life?

I'm also using it (also not my daily device) and overall seems to work no major issues at the moment. I'm happy with the default root and options so I have no conflict with magisk/xposed. I just use the root to remove bloatware and to "tabletize" the phone (freeze sms/telephone/mobile data functions, but can be unfreezed if I need phone functions back again)
I have flashed gapps (pico/customized) version and there is FC if you replace stock clock and messenger with gapps version.
Also battery, this phone without network and screen working (and several apks) disables use to work for some days. Now the battery goes off in 1 day, even if not using. I will try to troubleshoot the culprit.
In lenovo's firmware it had an auto power on-off function that dissapears on this new rom.

Just some further investigation on this rom:
IMEIs are gone, and I am unable to restore them with the typical methods. I will keep on trying
It seems that the battery is drained by "Cell standby" (phone contacting telephony antennas) which is weird, because it has no sim, it's on airplane mode and I have frozen all apks related to phone/mobile data. But looking at the log and at the battery statistics, it's trying to do something with cell data. Also if I go to Phone test and try to "turn radio off", it ignores the click on the button.
I'll try a couple more things but my feeling is that something is wrong on the data system that is linked to the battery drain.
By the way, I have read on the russian forum (source of this post) that cm12 seems to work ok, but I don't want to go to an older version. I'll keep it as a last resource.

I do not have problems with the battery. DO NOT INSTALL GRENIFY, you will get into bootloop. You can fix the IMEI with Tool Hero (the update of MobileUncle). CM12 didn't work for me but there seems to be more users there...

I have tried all the common ways to restore IMEI: Hero, Mtk Droid tools, flashable zips (with/without nvram clear), imei generator and replacing files, changing permissions on /data/nvram, dd from a backup nvram.bin... nothing seems to work. I'm considering reflashing full rom again, just in case something went wrong during flashing.
I have also found a flashable modem firmware, doesn't work either.
Not quite fan of hero though, asks for too many permissions. Don't really get the point of the permissions to read contacts.
Regarding greenify I tried to install but it FC every time. Uninstalled without rebooting, so thanks for the advice. If you have no problem with battery and IMEI, I'm even more convinced that both problems are related.

I don't like tool hero too, but it did fix my IMEI problem. (I always deny most of the permissions it ask, and then uninstall). Nothing else worked (terminal, recovery, adb).
Battery seems fine here. I have to mention that my charging circuit has major problems. I use the phone daily now and I have 2 batteries charging them with cables.

Well, finally I have decided to re-flash, following the instructions of greatapo at the first post (I'm pretty sure I did the same last time).
In the middle I also flashed lollipop as suggested in the russian forum but I have little confidence that this had any impact.
The point is that phone has "magically" recovered IMEIs (like they were hidden somewhere) and battery usage is back to normal. Before, I had a slope of power comsumption due to cell network even on plane mode. Now, when the phone is idling consumption is flat.
I can recall that this phone (at least my device) had a strange behaviour: When it has been powered off for a while it didn't power on. But if I boot for recovery or keep it on, then it boots perfectly. This time I had it "heating up" before flashing (just in case something similar happens to any of you).

Booting taking too long!
I flashed this ROM with SP Flash Tool (latest). I end up my phone taking too long to boot. I am until now seeing a CynogenMod Marshmallow and some ripple effect behind it
Please. Anybody, tell me the real and proper way to get this ROM working on my Lenovo A850 (step-by-step). Explain Step 4 please.
I am super interested on this ROM!

Did you flash ROM+GAPPS successfully? I recently successfully flashed ROM. I tried to flash GAPPS using TWRP but after powering on my Lenovo a850, i always get 2 error message which is (Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped working" (the most) and "Unfortunately, Google play services has stopped working". What now? Did I flashed it wrongly? Can you state how you flash GAPPS please?

[CLOSED] Pie Stock ROM for US996

I am closing this thread as I've had a better idea. Those wising to have A9 on their non-F800 device (US996 compatible only currently) may flash the official hardware F800 system available here;
[Stock] [F800 L/S/K ] [A9 Pie] Debloated Modified Rom for F800 Hardware
Get it all here, I will update this opening post later. Mobile call and internet data working perfectly for me with my carrier here in Ireland. More on this later. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=322402 Btw this is based on latest...
forum.xda-developers.com
You may or may not have to make a small adjustment yourself to get it to work. I may even make a flashable zip so you don't have to do anything. I just have to get round to learning how to make them
This will save me having to work on 2 roms at the same time which are virtually identical anyway, and will avoid confusion, and multiple uploading of large files.
====================================================================
Since this was requested on the Pie Experimental thread.
As per the title alas no data.
Instructions
Download both the system image and the boot image from here;
Downloads for : LG V20 | AndroidFileHost.com | Download GApps, Roms, Kernels, Themes, Firmware and more. Free file hosting for all Android developers.
Download GApps, Roms, Kernels, Themes, Firmware, and more. Free file hosting for all Android developers.
www.androidfilehost.com
The system image is in 7z format for maximum compression and faster download.
Extract either on your device or on a PC. Extract with 7-zip on Windows.
It will expand to a 6GB system.img file.
TWRP>INSTALL>INSTALL_IMAGE (bottom right) and flash system.img to system partition.
Same for the boot.img, flash to boot partiton.
Flash Magisk, reboot.
edit: delete your google account before you flash this in case wifi doesn't work.
Notes
The boot image has my ezV2020 kernel already. And Magisk but you still have to flash Magisk again.
Calls appear to be working for me. Voicemail anyway is all I tested.
Keep data turned off or modem with continually reboot if you have sim card in.
I have debloated a lot of google apps and all the Korean carrier apps.
This may also work for original F800 Korean models. You would have to replace original F800 firmware files though for wifi and I'
I would be interested to know if my modifications have unlocked the carrier sim lock on the F800 if anyone tries it.
edit: I changed my mind about this recommendation until I test it on my own F800 which is on order from China. More experienced devs may of course go ahead.
edit:2 Will not flash on F800, prob due to differing partition layout between variants
You can flash this on other us996 compatible variants but I'm not sure if everything will work especially wifi. If not might be easy fix though.
Do not flash on H918 as I don't know if it's safe to do so.

Are you Serious!!!... This may be a breakthrough!!!

Hey i'm just a little curious, will the cellular and data issue be fixed at some point? I'd like to try this rom on my vs995 although those are important to me

Okay so my F800 arrived. This will not flash on it so sorry if anyone downloaded it and it didn't work. The img file is a TWRP system.img backup taken of my US996. Since partition layouts are different between Korean and non-korean variants that my be why it didn't work.
Can anyone confirm they did get it work at all or their non-Korean device?

I'm not clear on what you need. If you have an original F800L device then you don't need this. I actually have F800L Twrp version of what I uploaded here and that will flash on an original F800L device via TWRP. But it is just a debloated version of original F800 KDZ. It doesn't do much more than that as I had hoped. The main point to this thread was to provide a ready made US996+ Pie ROM.
Incidentally for me F800S works the best in my country (Ireland) I have discovered today. Because it has a 3G band L version does not have. I have 3G and LTE so I'm pretty happy with that. It's not working perfectly yet as it is currently stuck on 3G but I think I can sort that out eventually. So if I upload a working F800 it will be the SK Telecom (S) version. And the newest update as well. Working very nice btw Finally got pie!

I don't know how to make a flashable zip (yet).
The first F800 Pie will be a system.img file you can flash in TWRP anyway.
I don't see a reason to provide an Oreo rom. I thought I read WETA rom works on F800? You would have to read the relevant thread for information.
Now, I am having an issue with apps crashing on my ROM so there is slight delay. I have to fix it before I upload. I'm working on it.

No because I received my F800 only last week. I bought so I can have working Pie on the V20. I won't be wasting any time with Nougat or Oreo because Pie is awesome on the V20. You won't need Oreo! And Magisk apps works better on Pie as well!

So i flashed it on my us996 (vs995 converted to us996) and everything works fine although, every once in a while it crashes and goes to the green crash screen "apps watchdog bark"
with this error "init: could not find service hosting interface vendor.lge.hardware.dualscreen01.0::IDualScr" repeatedly showing up.

i know the picture isn't that clear but i forgot how to get a log after a crash so if you could tell me what it i'll try to get an actual log
Edit: This crash seems to only happen a couple of mins after a reboot, but after a while of the phone running fine it doesn't crash
Edit 2: while it becomes more stable after a while, it still crashes sometimes

Hi, unfortunately my US996 died last week. I only have F800 now, so it will be much more difficult for me to fix this.
To be honest I got this bug myself but it only happened after installing and then it seemed to go away. I am not certain about this though because I went back to Oreo.
Could you keep an eye on it and see if it goes away or happens repeatedly.
edit: I see now you said it happens every once in a while. I'll look at it eventually but I'm working on F800 at the moment so might be a while.

@TarAntonio I'm sorry to report I'm having problems with the F800 rom. The issues is when the phone is on LTE+ is won't receive calls. I've no idea what is causing this so It will probably take a while for me to figure out. I don't know if it's the Rom, my carrier settings, or my carrier network. It's very important for calls to work so I can't upload what I have until I figure this out.
