Can you back up partitions like abl_a, abl_b, xbl_a, xbl_b, xbl_a_config, xbl_b_config and post the link here, I will be able to root other models

Check on reddit lg v60 thread and ask them, there are people with EA models, ask to unlock bootloader if not unlocked

Just replying to say that's awesome!

Hey man is there any way i can contact you. I also have an ea version and would like to root it aswell.

now that LG mobile is no more, maybe we can petition for them to help us unlock our phones!

I've been thinking of writing something like that up. The issue is there are so many closed source components in the OS that disentangling it is far more work than LG has ever shown an interest in doing.

Hey guys, for all of you who rooted the LMV600EA, does your VoLTE still work? or is that a A11 issue?
Also is that a thing on the V60 that if you unlock BL, the Fingerprint sensor won't work at all? My unlocked G8s worked fine.
Edit: Fingerprint sensor just randomly started working lol

Hello everyone, I am from Vietnam. I am buying a variant of LG V60 ThinQ in the Taiwan market with its model number: LMV600EA.ATWNCB
Everyone can refer to it from the following link: https://www.lg.com/tw/support/product/lg-LMV600EA.ATWNCB
As far as I know, the list of supported bootloader unlocked devices includes LG V60 but it is in the European market in supported devices tab at the following link: https://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader. dev
I asked myself that: Assuming, if it can't be unlocked bootloader then will it be able to be unlocked by flashing Europe firmware as the following V600EA20c? https://lg-firmwares.com/downloads-file/24767/V600EA20c_00_COM1_EU_OP_0219

Lol. I yet didnt buy it, V600EA Taiwan market. Okay, thks so much for your information, i will stop buying it now.

Hi,
I'm having trouble flashing the patched boot.img to my phone, I hope someone can help.
I have an LM-V600EA (European SWC variant) and I've done the bootloader unlock process via LGs website, and flashed the unlock.bin. fastboot getvar unlocked tells me the phone is unlocked.
When I adb reboot fastboot and then fastboot flash boot boot_V600EA10o_00_1118_magisk.img I get the following error:
sending 'boot' (98304 KB)...
OKAY [ 2.259s]
writing 'boot'...
FAILED (remote: Cannot flash this partition in unlocked state)
Anyone able to shed some light what I am doing wrong?
Thanking you in advance.

Unlock critical is allowed and already known thing but this is for flashing bootloader and stuff. It doesn't help us at all for now.
There are already many rooted tmobile g7 sold in China.
I found a possible root it looks like it will work with any lg g710 Oreo. Is this not the case?

So it's a fake post for one (actually not exactly fake I would say more clickbait then anything) two I believe the T-Mobile version is the G710TM, three we have a gimped fastboot as in it doesn't work at all. And four I think our only option is something to do with LAF

No it's not the case see my previous answer
We should be able to get around this gimped fastboot by incorperating that boot.img from the EM varient into an "update" once the phone is cross flashed. To 710EM it will have "adb update" command (it will also think the update is for itself since the firmware matches what were flashing we can put this into a flashable.zip (im like 75% sure this is how its done). Then use the command "adb update boot /path to patch boot/" alternatively could we incorperate our patched boot.img into a kdz and flash it with a patched LGup? Once the phone is rooted with magisk we could use the twrp app to flash twrp and fastboot commands wont be extremely relevant
The problem is, how to remove or get around the correct oem unlock allowed verification system. Unpacking a .img and editing is not a problem, i am just not exactly sure what to edit.

I'm will definitely get root on every other device but there's two things that stop us.
1) it's impossible to extract anything from a kdz and a .up file (LGs way of updating)
2) dm-verify (but it's possible to get around)

So for dm-verify I know how to manually get around that and the patch thats floating around via flashable.zip. What do we need to extract from the .up or .kdz? Im pretty sure there is a full kdz dump for the 710EM in a thread I read through just last night? I really believe the only obstacle we have is making the bootloader unlock through a command line independent of the official unlock code. This should be able to be acheived by editing that in a way to where it doesnt check much like dm-verity. Then you can flash your (patched by deletion) boot.img run fastboot oem unlock ( btw did you know that "fastboot oem flashing unlock critical works) **could run that then flash an unlock.bin, then fastboot oem unlock unlock.bin** I am working with a 710pm varient. And am speaking from experience rooting the v30 ls version currently using G7 as daily driver
This leaves me thinking that we have lots of wiggle room here (also leaves me thinking how weird LG is for having a lot of variation within G7)

There is no cross flashing on the G7 (or V35 or V40) unless you want a brick. LG got smart after the V30 WTF exploit and now uses a different RSA cert for every model.
Don't take my word for it, please feel free to try -- make sure you have insurance

Yes but we will figure it out eventually so we can flash the EM firmware and unlock the bootloader then root and install TWRP then AOSP. I am waiting on my octoplus box to arrive then I'll be testing cross flashing for others to sort out what's needed.

Root & TWRP when ?

I really need TWRP, but it needs a custom version right ?
Also has somebody got root with magisk yet ?
I have managed to get root on G7, and the way to get root on G7 Power is similar (read my posts on G7 section)
Unfortunately, I don't know how to build TWRP or I can make custom recovery for all three variations
Unfortunately it seems like we currently lack stock ROM images for the European Retail version (RETEU2), which makes using Magisk to root that variant currently not safely possible.

Are you able to get the full ROM?
You should look up your model number to find matching ROM
The best bet is to get "RETAIL" , but you should get ROM of your version just in case you want to revert it back
Many thanks to Mingkee. I just got root access following his directions on the G7 forum. The different step was that I had to download a previous version of stock ROM, once the current version has not leaked. :good:
Do you have the American version?
I have the Brazilian stock firmware (xt1955-1 version PPO29.80-27). Sorry.

It's rather strange issue because I see same error even I flashed bone stock boot.img when doing manual update G6 to Pie.
The bad key message appeared to me after I had the bootloader unlocked. To unlock it I just followed this: techdroidtips.com/unlock-bootloader-moto-g7/

Best place to look for your stock rom is here:

if somebody has the "RETEU2" moto g7 power and rooted it, see if you can change your wifi region using root so that 5Ghz Wifi can be supported. I read somewhere about it, that the current Wifi region doesnt support 5Ghz and i really need it for my moto

Didn't see this before, but yes the "bad key" note pops up on all Moto phones that have bootloader unlocked. I have had 4 different Moto phones and each one has had the "bad key" message before booting.
Is anyone working on a TWRP for this? I'm happy to buy and ship a phone to a reputable forum member if there is a need for the physical hardware.
Alternatively if there is an easy way to get xposed and xprivacy lua installed on this device without TWRP, that's all I need. I don't care about passing safetynet checks.
I've got a root guide over in the discussion threads.

You cannot cross flash it will just give you an error. There's no chance of brick because it just won't flash
But why LG doesn't allow crossflash?

Because carriers don't want you to use another firmware... LG has never "allowed" cross flash in the past

Any A2020U EDL Firmware Yet?

Hey all, has there been any discussion or progress regarding an EDL firmware for the 2020U variant of the Axon 10 Pro yet? I see we have some Chinese and G EDL firmwares released, but not any for the 2020U. I've yet to unlock my bootloader or install TWRP because of no EDL firmware available to fall back on if anything goes wrong. Just curious if there's one available floating somewhere. Thanks!

https://easy-firmware.com/index.php?a=downloads&b=file&id=165761it doesn't specify region because they all have different model numbers. A2020U is the only US model.

Bricked Axon 10 pro
I bricked my Axon 10 pro Us version by trying to unlock the bootloader via the EDL tool, All my phone does is boot into fastboot or just a boot loop and the bootloader did not unlock. I'm new to rooting and stupidly tried this on my daily driver phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have done some research on this and it turns out i didn't do oem unlocking when i turned on usb debugging, so the issue is that the phone will not boot to the os to enable oem unlocking and the bootloader is still locked so i can't even install a stock rom to it. Anyone have any ideas how i can get an OS on the device or enable oem unlocking through fastboot or any other solution that might help
?

Question Flash U.S. rom onto a U.S. phone that's running the Indian firmware for the pro variant.

Kay, backstory. I bricked my phone, and MSM for the Global didn't work. I used the op9 pro indian MSM, and that worked, so now I'm with the incorrect firmware. OTA won't work, for whatever reason, so what should I do? No bootloader unlocking, not doing that stuff again
You can try fastboot image. You can find one around here. Otherwise, root, download full zip via OOS Updater and do a local update.
Twrp is also working for our device now, at least mostly.

I'm testing everything out now but it seems fine still had to trick it into thinking it was the IN variant.

You download the msm tool you need and oppo_decrypt to extract the .ops file. Then there will be a file created called settings.xml and you just need to edit that file and add one line to the bottom in-between <SupportMultiTarget> , run oppo tool again to put it one big .ops file, So more so not trick it but just add support to for the IN model. Until I can figure out how to make it change on the actually device this is the best I can come up with. This is only if you are having trouble using your original msm tool and having to use the Indian Pro version. Its solved all my issues.
