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...

Help Boost 6.0.1 Recovery Zip or 6.0.1 ota update needed.

During debloat on Boost 6.0.1 error 1003 on reboot. Cannot mount sd in recovery mode. When using the 6.0 untouched i get an error after 50%+ when trying to sideload. AIl so it goes on to display dialog in the phone describing basically its can update becouse ther untouched zip is going from 5.1.1 to 6.0 so id imagine i need a 6.0.1 ota update or recovery in hopes of unsoftbricking the device. Anyone got any way of possibly downgrading if the 6.0.1 wont work? A guy in the the dev forum said he was able to overflash but i cannot post in there yet. Help plz i dont like paperweights.
There really isn't a solution for you other than sending it to LG to get unbricked. Right now there is no way of circumventing LAF which is the program that keeps us from writing anything to any partition. I'm assuming that there was an update or change in zv7 that did this as zv4 & 5 both had the ability. Basically the device is checking the system partition and taking note that there have been changes made that we're not supposed to have been. As of right now there isn't anything we can do because we haven't been able to unlock the bootloader. Also, so far the Boost website says zv7 was the 6.0 upgrade and I haven't seen a 6.0.1 ota update and Boost hasn't made any mention of it on their website. When I get my new one tommorrow I'll double check the version but so far I haven't heard of a 6.0.1 ota.

I have the same problem as the OP. Is it a big deal to send it into LG? What do they say about the 1003 err?

Nah. They don't say anything about it. A bunch of people have sent 'em in. I'm sure they shake their heads though when they power on the phones after taking them out of the box though.

I think someone said ten days, not really sure. I work for AT&T and usually if someone has to send something to LG that we can't deal with it takes three weeks max.
Search the forum for the 5.1 KDZ and flash it with LG Flash Tool 2014. It will be repaired, although you will loose everything not backed up.

Help, H950 flash to stock for OTA Update?

EDIT: Looks like its not MM but some security update, so that sucks but I'd still like to know if anyone successfully got back to stock from rooted 5.1.1
Hi everyone.
I'm trying to find a way to restore my H950 to stock and completely remove any trace of root so that I can install an OTA update. I have tried installing the update with LG PC Suite and LGMobile Support Tool. Both of them say that I am on the latest software (5.1.1 H950v11?). It has been so long since I rooted it that I can't remember what method I used. If anyone has any idea how to flash it back to stock, I'd appreciate the help!
More Details:
I have an H950 (US AT&T) rooted on 5.1.1 and I just started getting an update yesterday saying that I have a system update available. When I tried to download and update, the phone I got an error while the update was still at 0%. When the phone restarted I got the "This phone is suspected in rooting..." Error.
I have tried following this thread [Guide] LG G Flex 2 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock) KDZ & TOT Method
but it didn't work. I got the flash utility to run but I still had SuperSU after it flashed my phone and the update still failed due to "Suspect in rooting."
I also tried following this thread [Tool] Easy Restore/Unroot Tool for LG G Flex 2 [09/15/15]!!
but I could not get it to work. The utility just hangs at "Working..."
Anyone successfully used either of these methods on an H950 with 5.1.1 to get back to stock?
Thanks in advance!

You chose cse flash and wiped correct? If you didn't that's why my guide removes everything 100% if you follow it correctly.

CSE flash? Sorry I didn't see that in your guide for the H950 on the AT&T network. I'm looking at your guide and not seeing the CSE Flash unless the LG Tool is the CSE FLash? I had the same problem with SuperSU left over and not able to update. I tried the default Upgrade method, then got a minios OS screen on the the Board method.

It's entirely possible that I am technologically inept, but I am having the exact same issue as the OP. I followed your guide (which was very helpful) for the TOT method, and there is no option to use CSE flash, or at least it's not discussed in the instructions.
I flashed my phone twice using your TOT guide -- pretty sure I followed it to the letter. It completed successfully, but when the phone rebooted, I still had root access. I'm not sure how to unroot this thing so I can receive OTA updates (and maybe sell later on down the road).
Thanks for the help!

Umm, so I found a possible solution on another thread in this forum. Maybe the answer was so simple that nobody thought to mention it. But apparently, you can just remove root access within the SuperUser app; just select "Full Unroot" or "Total Unroot" from settings. Then run this TOT flash, and you should be GTG. I am trying this now and will report as to whether I am successful.

Rooted or not you should be able to go back to stock. And CSE flash is for the kdz method of lg flash tool. Which I didn't realize what model they were needing help with. Also with the H950 LGUP should be used instead of normal flash tool to avoid any issues with the flash tool.

Hmm. Thanks for helping us out. So I am kind of confused. I reinstalled the Tot file using LGUP, and it completed successfully. I selected "REFURB" mode, and it completed successfully. But after it finished, my phone is still rooted. (I verified with root checker.) I just want to go back to stock so I can get OTA updates (and MM hopefully, when/if AT&T releases it). Now my phone won't get OTA updates because it says it's "suspected of rooting." I bought the phone used off of Swappa, so I'm not sure how exactly the original owner rooted it.

At this point you'd be better off waiting for a KDZ of MM when it comes out for the H950. (But remember, root will probably never be achieved for our devices on MM, if that's something you care about).
I remember buying TWO H950s. Both needed the OTA for the latest Lollipop. But despite several hours, several methods, and several hours at the ATT store, I was never able to get OTAs working on either of them. It was impossible.
And supposedly impossible for several other users on XDA, who couldn't get OTAs working for their ATT Flex 2's. So even if you manage to unroot, don't get your hopes high believing OTAs will work.
Did somebody ever able to go back to stock (H950) from rooted 5.1.1? Where did you get the TOT file?

How to Disable Ota update?

Hey guys, there is a new update that keeps bothering me but I don't want to update. I'm rooted. How do I get rid of the notification to reboot and install??
Could I use titanium backup for this??
Thanks!!
It seems the update notification is coming from Google Play services. I wouldn't recommend disabling that package.
I would just follow these instructions and you should be good.
Can someone tell me what software version I'm supposed to be on? Just got the phone today and the baseband seems to be correct according to T-Mobile website but the google security version is dated 5-1-2016.

10i is the latest, you can root 10d following the guide here by tungkick, it applies to 10d as well, and read autoprimes all in one here. A video on YouTube helped as well. I would root, install twrp on the build you are on then use autoprimes zip to go to 10i located here.

If you have checked for an update manually and don't see one it might just take some time. I would personally not update, root 10d and then flash autoprimes 10i bringing you up to date.

Does 10i fix gps? I was concerned about gps coming from the S6 Edge. They were warning me in the store about all these issues that the G5 supposedly has (not gps but other things) and I had read my self about everybody's gps problems. So I tried it out a little while ago and it seemed like it was bouncing around a little bit while standing still but while driving it worked pretty accurately, other than the google navigation arrow being sideways in the wrong direction.

O boy, not sure whats going on but the phone keeps rebooting after using LGUP and it says bootloader failed in red even though it is succesful in LGUP. The first tot i downloaded on the phone and then transferred to the computer. Im retrying with it downloaded right to the pc. Also i think things may be wonky as i already had LG USB mobile driver exe installed for LG G4. IDK what the issue is here. EDIT.......GRRR stupid me , I never unlocked the bootloader as I forgot about it because it wasnt in the root instructions. I have no idea what to do now. Phone is in a bootloop.

I ended up fixing it. 4 hours later lol. First time I messed up because I forgot to unlock boot loader. Second time i was having issues with the storage encryption after flashing autoprimes H83010i......so I had to redo everything all over again from scratch. I kept messing things up because I wasn't able to thoroughly read because I was on someone else's computer who was hovering over me and trying to make me hurry. Finally landed on 10i rooted, installed xposed, adaway etc.........after all these flashes battery pulls etc I'm not sure it was so good for the health of my phone lol. Also I'm pretty sure there's an update that just was released yesterday so it feels kinda pointless. Anyways, is there a way to disable the annoying messages on reboot and or change the boot screens?
Sighs, I really don't want to have to go through all of that just to get rid of an update message. Is there any other way? My phone is perfect on 10d.

Sick! Do these flash correctly though? Have you tested on your device?

Still not Bro.
Waiting @tungkick to have a way to always go back, but i'm pretty sure if you flash only recovery TOT for example, you don't have any risk of brick nothing

There is a twrp recovery.img, but it's not yet flashable.
What is @tungkick website where I can find all of this stuff? Looking forward to flashing everything in the near future.

Look on this thread:

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

mate, as of today, i have read that there is no dll file for the v20. i.e there is no updated dll file to recognise the v20 in lgup.
u might want to wait a bit longer before u can unbrick your phone.

Not good news.. it is just the dll? I mean i knew it had to be a missing piece because it was ready to flash. Every file failed at the same time. If anyone hears anything please post here or PM me just for a heads up. Im sure a few other desperate souls out there are anxiously waiting. Any reason the flash tools are incomplete? It doesnt seem like a big deal. Can someone here in the forum make one? Just couious.. i would gladly donate. Thanks for the info.

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"
Managed to soft brick my H918 as well, so if anyone working on this needs a tester, I'd love to get my phone back.

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.

Anyone flash the 10p kernel yet ? Or is it even possible at this point?
Sent from my LG-H918 using XDA-Developers Legacy app
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
