You will only lose root and xpose. Theres a thread in here about the twrp for emui 5. Start from that if you want root again xpose included.

In my experience the only solution to this is to backup data, then if possible, use firmware updater (can downloadn in playstore) then download the b360 update with the Full ota-mf-pv tag. Flash it using dload method. About thw dload method search the honor 6x threads cause i dont use it. I did not encounter this problem when updating

T-Mobile LGV20 H91810k KDZ

have at it folks... grabbed from LG Bridge and updated from it as well... https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6Wj13Rw1kw-U1JCZlhhWE9ULVk
EDIT: you will lose root and TWRP if you flash this, as this brings you back to stock. if you want root, downgrade to 10j, root, install TWRP, then flash 10k which can be found here https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/h918-twrp-flashable-stock-firmwares-t3619671

can this preserve root?

no... flashing this KDZ, which was provided straight from the source, will bring your device to complete stock and lose root. I'm uploading a flashable zip of this release that should RETAIN root provided you have root and TWRP now.

i have a problem, i cant install TWRP on this firmware, I followed many of instrucctions but i cant install, anybody have this problem???

you need to downgrade to 10j to be able to root/install TWRP. after that, flash the 10k package found here https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/h918-twrp-flashable-stock-firmwares-t3619671

Can I use LGUp...?
Good day,
First, let me say THANKS for an amazing effort! I've been successful in rooting by installing the H91810j image and performing the dirtycow exploit.
Now, I'm wondering if I can update to H91810k, and still preserve root access, by using LGUp to install the modified 10k image you posted...?
Let me know... Thanks!

Ok I got a V20 today and it came out if the box with 10K is it possible to root possibly through downgrading in lgup or am I going to have to not update and wait for a root for 10k I'm on T-Mobile variant

Drop to 10j...

As far as I've been able to find out (since I was in the same boat), 10k has not been successfully 'rooted' as yet. You'll need to load H91810j and use the dirtycow exploits to enable root.
Once that's done, THEN you can install the modified version of H91810k mentioned earlier in this thread. Be sure it's the modded version, if you expect to keep root access.

Thanks for the info how would I go about loading 10j, is it possible to downgrade to 10j for instance and if so how would I do that I've read up on dirty cow it seems difficult but it's not my first time rooting with adb and fastboot

Can this kdz be used on an h910 as well? I understand the hardware is the same, but I would rather not brick the device.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but.. I am returning a t-mobile v20 that has unlocked bootloader... Need to relock that? I will google how to do that? Think I need a kdz?..Just got replacement with H91810K that I want to unlock and root.. realize I need to downgrade, but just looking for a thread on downgrading I think.. All help sincerely appreciated. Thanks in advance

I believe all you need to do is boot into fastboot thru ADB and type fastboot oem lock. I may be wrong on the typing part. But that's the general idea. Find out what command unlocks and just do the opposite and type lock instead.

The more updated the less likely your going to be able to root.. last time I heard of rooting the G3 you needed to downgrade to Kitkat

Why KitKat? I hear there are some Nougat things but i've only seen this when google search for "root" methods specifically.

You have to downgrade. There are tutorials out there. I had to go back to 5.0 so I could root it, then install twrp with twrp manager, then install 7.0. There are no shortcuts. Use LG Tool to flash stock firmware. Here is one of the tutorials: https://forum.xda-developers.com/att-lg-g3/general/downgrade-lg-g3-d850-to-kit-kat-t3437524

Solved my issue of rooting by downgrading to 4.2 in LG Flash Tool without any problems, I guess my only question now is how do I get to 7.1 Nougat without any issues?

I went to RR 7.0. Some you have to bump. But, if you must have twrp, then download the rom, and gapps on your sd card. Go to twrp. Wipe, then install. I have did it and all runs good. Installing twrp is easy. Go to playstore. Get twrp manager and install twrp. Reboot to recovery. Boom.

T-Mobile LG G5 on stock Oreo (H83030c)

Is there a way to install a custom ROM on a LG G5 running stock Oreo? Can the stock firmware be downgraded to one of the stock nougat builds to help with bootloader unlock and TWRP install?

Yes, you can downgrade 30c to 20a, then unlock bootloader and install TWRP.

Is there a guide on how to do this? Thanks

I never found a solution to this and ended up getting a new phone. But that new phone just brokeand I am back to using the LG G5 again.
So now I am looking for a way to downgrade to 20a and the files needed to unlock the bootloader.
Appreciate any help provided.

Hi subaron what version are you on now? If you are on the latest 30C then you need to downgrade to 20A stock ROM first.
You must download the 20A kdz file and flash it with UPPERCUT. Then you enable Developer Options and can follow the info in this thread on how to install TWRP recovery and root. The only thing different from those directions is: instead of SuperSU, install Magisk.
Once you have rooted 20A with TWRP installed, then you copy the 30C COMPLETE .zip to the sdcard, reboot into recovery, and install that and install Magisk once again.

Rooting on Android 10

Hi, Im new in this forum, just got my OP 7 Pro. I've been away from anything root related for a long time, since my previous devices couldnt be rooted.
I remember using magisk when it was a new thing, and everyone was using greenify to extend battery life.
I just updated to Android 10 Beta, can I root my device?
If it is possible, what do I lose if I root besides widevine?
The only thing I'm really looking forward is gcam port and the use of aux cams, since a lot of things have to be updated to Android 10, I don't think there's a lot to do right now besides that.

I think you have to come back to the android p stable, root, install the twrp and after you will able to update with the root. Now im on the beta with root and twrp throw a dirty installing

Hi! Thanks. If you don't mind, can you give point me to a guide or something to downgrade? I'm a total noob with everything OnePlus related.

You don't have to downgrade to Pie.
Do it like this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7/how-to/guide-how-to-flash-android-10-twrp-t3964131
You just need stock boot.img:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...isk-patched-boot-image-oneplus-7-pro-t3964345

There's also another way which avoids to downgrade.
Flash the magisk patched img you'll find in this forum.
After following instructions from there, you'll be rooted but without TWRP.
If you need that also... flash the TWRP installer zip as a magisk module, reinstall magisk (direct install), reboot and you're done.

Wow, thanks!! that seems stupidly easy, even for me. Two questions:
Do I need a PC to do the extraction?
Will this wipe any data?
And as for my initial question, is there anything besides widevine lost when rooting?

You can download Magisk patched boot.img from second link above.
Flashing boot.img will not wipe any data.
If I remember right, Widevine will get L3 with unlocked bootloader.

Awesome!! Thank you very much, thought I had to unlock the bootloader by myself using a PC.
Edit: I'm so dumb, just realized I still have to flash the boot.img using fastboot

I have a question, in order to root and flash twrp coming with android 10 (no root) I must unlock the bootloader, right?

Yes bootloader must be unlocked to flash TWRP or Root the device also when you unlock the bootloader it will factory reset the device so make sure you backup any personal data you need before unlocking.

Thank you
