Anyone flash the 10p kernel yet ? Or is it even possible at this point?

everyone one be very careful, something went wrong and i lost TWRP. Had to fully upgrade the phone to 10p to get it going again
Hopefully someone will come out with a root for 10p

what did you flash because I flashed the kdz and went to stock 10p which you cant root as of yet one thing you could do it flash 10j kdz and then reroot your phone though not sure if all you data will be there but thats your best chance.

I wouldn't tell ppl to try and down grade to another lower kdz because it will brick their devices. Please don't tell ppl to do things that will cause them to brick their phones.

First of no need to be rude and second I asked him what he flashed because if he was still on 10j he could reflash and start all over and if you try to downgrade from 10p to 10j it would not brick your device because it wont flash because of the rollback version change and I have tried on my person device to confirm so before you put out accusations I would do my research and I never told him to flash it I told him he could try and either way if he flashed a 10p rom and has no os he would be forced to flash the 10p kdz to fix the issue because the 10j would not work and I have tested the kdz on my own device and works flawlessly so.... I am not telling anyone to brick their devices I have tested all of this before I even responded and then again it is your own responsibility and your own device you do what you want just because someone said something doesn't mean you have to follow it. All I did was give him a suggestion and it was on him to do what he wanted to his device from there.
ps. I have downgraded for 10k to 10j many times already and never bricked my device so do a bit of research before saying anything

Seriously I didn't think anything I said to you there was being rude. He said he tried upgrading to the 10p and it failed and he lost root and had to continue upgrading and finishing it without root. Then you told him to try to downgrade and he can't do that because he will brick his device I was just trying to give him advice not to try what you told him to try only because he was on 10p. Man ppl are touchy these days about everything.

sorry bro didn't mean to get on you like that I see where your coming from but you accused me of telling people of wrong information causing people to brick there device which is incorrect if you try to downgrade it wont brick your device it simply wont flash I have tried it a couple of times. I didnt see the part where he was already on 10p and I have flash 10p and tried going to 10j again but it wont let you and it wont brick your devices even if you tried it and then again sorry if I offended you in any way

Hey guys,
So I just got the G3 last week, and an update rolled out from AT&T. Me being the idiot I am thought it was the Lollipop update so I updated it. Turns out, it was just 10f.
Then when I looked for ways to root the G3, all the methods required the software to be on 10d, not f.
What should I do?
Any help is much appreciated.
Use the bruteforce method in Stump root.
see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help/att-d85010f-update-stump-root-t2953063
You are certain it'll work for 10f?

100%. I rooted on 10f using stump.
In addition, if you plan on rooting a device and you know there is an update, please wait to install the update until you know a root method is found.

This is what I would do. It is possible you got a bad OTA as well. Did you factory reset after the OTA? I have seen many cases on forums where a factory reset takes care of many issues after an OTA.

I don't know man, do you have the correct app installed? Mine went through smoothly in less than 5 minutes.
I just did this - now i am trying to bump the device. So my memory is relatively fresh
Reboot for fresh start - Run Stump - it will say device not supported - try brute force - let it run - takes 5 - 7 and maybe 10 min after which it says "reboot" device - then go ahead and reboot device. Run stump again - it should say device is rooted. Next download "root checker" it will say rooted. Ofcourse if this all does not go thru - you can downgrade to a previous firmware and it'll go easier - however that's more labor intensive and you'll not be able to back up the current ROM with all your apps and setup.
Well, I ended up having to flash back to 10d as mentioned by many of you. This fixed the problem!

Good to hear and I do not think you are missing much going back. At least I have found no difference. Just freeze "Software Update" to prevent nagging OTA update notifications.

I can report no issues here with Stumproot on 10f and I've restored back to stock multiple times.

If i revert to 10D do i have to use the BUMP method after root? Or just get TWRP/CWM Recovery like good ole days? I just don't care to have the BUMP bypass that is why I am asking.
I have the ATT G3 10F.
I know root is achieved with a tot file for the G5 but will there be a one script method like for the g3? I haven't rooted my phone yet because I dont want to risk bricking my phone.

there won't be a script for this as there are no instructions for the bootloader to flash any file. The reason they are using the TOT method is because we have no other way to write to the device. ADB is enabled but the actual command needed to copy everything over was left out.

if you haven't taken that 10d update I would just root now. Not sure if you've seen the thread where they are discussing the possibility of using the TOT method with the new 10d file, but once you update it trips something (qfuse I believe, Autoprime is the one who discovered this AFAIK) that prevents you from using the existing TOT on the forum and from downgrading.
once you root, you can update to 10d and as long as you flash supersu you will still have access to TWRP and root on the latest update. I recommend waiting updating to 10d even after rooting until they iron out all the issues though.
edit: have you done the OEM unlock through dev options yet? it will wipe your phone in the process FYI so make sure you have everything backed up.
Come on. It wasn't that hard to root it. Just follow the directions. Easy!
How do I know if I have the 10d update? I unlocked the bootloader, rooted it, then thought I had a quality control issue with the pain on the frame. So I flashed stock and locked the bootloader to prepare for a warranty exchange. Turns out the paint wasn't bubbling. It was the protective plastic adhesive I had never taken off. I'm stupid, I know, lol. Now I want to root again but I don't know about the 10d update.

that may have been true at some point especially with OEM FW, but as far as custom I rooted then updated for my GS4, G3, and v10. Just because it worked for me doesn't mean it will for anyone else. I had the variants that once they were rooted you held on to it like dear life

it's never 100% safe, hence the quotation marks. there's always a risk of something going wrong such as a power outage, or bad file download. As long as you verify the md5sum of your files you shouldn't have a problem with rooting, the only problems I've seen are people trying to use the wrong files on their device. up to you tho man, good luck with which ever you decide

It was needed for s-off, so not tech for root (if i remember correctly) but for being able to flash custom roms and such. Theres youtube videos about it.
As promised,
here above you have some TOTs just created and only for Development use
This image files are been created in Stock bootloader locked mode, but should be the same as unlocked mode for sure.

I have a bricked v20 and I have tried flashing this .tot and the other posted in this forum and I keep getting error messages at 9% on all attempts on two windows machines. Any ideas on what this issue could be? I am using LGUP version 1_14_3. Is this the latest build or the build compatible with the V20? Drivers were latest I could find also using the LG common.dll which I needed for LGUP to recognize the V20. This is my only way out of brick I think. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I don't think the flash tool is meant to be public, so they are probably leaked files.
I have a soft bricked LG V20 and have tried the LGUP DLL for every LG phone model I could find. The most progress I got was with the LG G5 dll and it only went to 10%.

not really sure as i am new to LG.
been reading up on xda relating to flashing and rooting (i came from samdung phones) this baby. i think being patient here is what you can do at the moment.also, not only the dll file is missing, i read twrp is not saving backup properly due to the new security protocols in place android 7.0.
take heart mate,i know it sucks to have a bricked phone.
all im getting is "Unknown Model"

I appreciate it, wish I'd seen that the day before. I tried to go back to stock recovery to see if that would fix my boot loop issue, so, without access to TWRP, I'm hosed until we have a method to reflash recovery from Fastboot or Update modem connection..
I am screwed as well, I messed my phone up too, and when I turn my phone on it automatically goes the to the upgrade mode screen, I want to through away this damn phone, hehehe.

According to this post you just need the flash tool and kdz but haven't tried it yet.
I just attempted it and ended up erroring at 9% with error 0x2000 CEFS:Initalize() :/ Attempting a redownload maybe I have some bad files.

Thanks for keeping us updated. I'm probably going to stock restore too, currently on the unlocked deodex 996.
When you did the restore, did you wipe data before you started? I think I'm going to wipe and format storage since I'm on the vs996 Rom. Unless there's a way to wipe data in the stock recoverym

I didnt wipe data, i wasnt on deodex 996 rom. make sure u do the upgrade option in lgup
I tried to use Uppercut but it kept giving me an error that no devices were found. I have adb drivers installed and the LG mobile driver installed, nothing showed as error in device manager. Did you have any issues like that?
Edit: Weird, tried it again and it seems to work.
Thanks a million everyone, I finally fixed my Lg v20 vs995! I kept having failure trying it with Uppercut, but I finally saw that I needed to install 3 files to get it to work correctly, 1st you need the kdz file: VS99512A_06_1114_ARB00.kdz, next you need to install 2 driver files, LGUP_Store_Frame_Ver_1_14_3_3.msi and LGMobileDriver_WHQL_Ver_4.1.1.exe, and of course have UPPERCUT.exe. Finally after installing all of the correct drivers, and loading UPPERCUT, using the VS99512A_06_1114_ARB00.kdz, I finally got it to work and you have to choose "UPGRADE" in UPPERCUT, but I completely restored my phone to factory!!! What a frickn blessling, I am so happy, because I was trying for days to fix this..... and I actually threw this phone in the trash, hehehehehe, but something made be take it out of the trash an hour later, THANK GOD!
New update H91810r

It would be nice to have a stock ROM of this like they did on P and Q. With the stock kernel download on the side with KCAL, RCT implemented. ?

But I have this weird feeling we're screwed. There's only a few of us left if you've noticed.
If you mean a flashable zip, I'll be glad to post one.

Yes please I want to keep root
I'm so sick of trying to get my H918 TMobile to root, I'm on H91810q... I might as well just flash this kdz because I can't root, cant unlock bootloader or do anything else to be a android nerd anyways. I should flash this just for the pleasure of a little something to update my precious V20. Thanks for posting link bro

Uh im pretty certain that it's because 10q is NON-rootable. You needed to be rooted before updating to q. I am still on k for instance unsure of when I want to root but will not update to q+ for the root problem.
Oh and don't try to flash/kdz back to some lesser than q ROM, as you will hard brick.
Yea I know bro. I learned the hard way and luckily I didn't successfully revert to an older Rom.... I read a thread here and was like oh chitt I almost wrecked my phone lol. I should prolly wait till maybe q gets rooted but q does not look like its going to get any root at all, by as I read so far, devs are not interested.. So I guess ill go ahead and just flash this kdz

Would you suggest updating? I can't root as it is.

@BROKEN1981 It is still ARB 1 so if by some miracle a kernel exploit is found, you can roll back to 10p if needed.

Hi, there. I just bought a V20 T-Mo for a really good price but the phone issue is that every time I turn it on, it goes straight to the "Firmware Update" screen without pressing any volume keys. It shows in LGUP and all with no problem, the firmware version is LGH918AT-01-V10R-310-260-NOV-17-2017-ARB01+0 as it shows when I try flash other KDZs such as 10R_00 or 10Q. The only way to make it boot normally is to flash the V10i KDZ, it starts to flash and immediately it says "Error Tot Anti rollback version is smaller than device" (Image below), phone reboots and starts normally, but if I turn it off and on again it goes to the "Firmware update" screen again.
Does anybody know how I can fix this and help me here? I've been doing some research but can't get it sorted out. Thanks in advance.

Not the place to ask this. Go to the question section and make a new post after you have used the search button about that issue. Maybe edit this comment and try again.
I'm not bothering to update to 10r i was already there and reflashed back to 10p in hopes of 10p being the first to get root and recovery out of this security mess that LG and T mobile has spread worldwide. Meaning being that the 10p being the 1st stage of security patches they have pushed. Iv'e decided to buy another v20 thats on the old firmware and just do a mobo swap into my mint cond v20 it's the easiest route at this point. I'd think LG was to busy paying off lawsuits and replacing phones to be pushing these exploit crippling updates.
Dear LG V20 H918 users, I am facing ridiculously low battery life on my new device. do you face the same problem? or you solved it somehow? please pardon my off topic post...
