LG velvet Retail Mode Thread - LG Velvet Guides, News, & Discussion

I am able to disable retail mode with root junkys guide. Ill post it below. Credit goes to root junky for the disabling retail mode guide. I am currently trying to flash another software KDZ on a retail mode LG Velvet 5G. I run into this error in LGUP. I am using a modified LGup file. has anyone been able to wipe these phones. i saw another xda member claim that the LG wing will flash in LGUP but I cannot figure it out. i tried all options in LGUP. Any IDeas?
click on the retail mode app and put in the password
password 103729
click on factory data reset in the app and put in admin code
Admin L310MC570G
wait for the device to fully factory reset. Once it boots up quickly go into setting about phone and click on the build number 7 times then go into developer options.
open a adb windows on your pc and start adb server with with adb devices.
then toggle usb debugging and click always allow.
disable device admin
adb shell
am start -S com.android.settings/.Settings\$DeviceAdminSettingsActivity
uncheck retail mode admin and deactivate it.
reboot from the shell with reboot.
Uninstall retail mode app
adb shell
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.lge.retailmode
reboot from the shell with reboot.
Demo mode locks removed
Hope this helps those out there that needed it. The battery will still only charge to 50% but everything else will work as far as i can tell so far.
Rootjunky Out.

I was never able to get the Gui tool to work. Flash firmware in command prompt and you will be set.

Can you please tell me it like a guide? Or in a specific sequence, what and how I must do it. I think all my mistake is a using wrong.dll

How did you get a network signal without imei?

Have you tried factory reset? Also dial *#06# and check whether the IMEI is displayed correctly or as 0/null.

I have exactly the same problem
It seems that one of the users (another threath LG H900 5.1 > 6.0 problem) is right and I upload software h900 6.0 via KDZ via TOT even via octopus and nothing, even the same error is possible that the main card is not h900 but another variant?, He says he solved the problem by loading vs900 software because the main card was not h900 but refurbished vs900.
I opened the phone and I was right, now i am going to load the correct software and tell you.
I am facing same problem
I don't know what i can do i brought from in dubizzle for second hand...att h900 and for me mobile hostpot not working...
Everyone getting same problem who update has phone by LGUP. Who update from FOTA like who living in US so they don't have any problem.
I brick my phone in reupdating my mobile in LGUP then I install again lollipop root version .
I face error many times but I try again and again and now I downgrade finely.
Anti roll is 2.0 that's why u can't go back to lollipop from marshmallow. But there is a way
Everything is possible if u use ur mind because it's made by human not God.

Please make a more detailed description, I have managed to skip antirollback protection with octopus but I leave the dead phone completely brick, another way is to force the rom but also end up killing the phone, phone no logo no load, no update mode or anything if Have you been able to bypass the protection without killing your LG could you share your method?
Any suggestion how to repair that type of problem, or how to go back to 5.1.1
thanks

Updated with LMSA with no issues, only be warned that everything is deleted and you start from scratch. I had my bootloader unlocked, this was kept. But I am unable to root it as I did with Android 10. Patching boot.img with Magisk and I get bootloop to fastboot after flashing it. Only way to continue as of now was to flash the boot.img that came with the new firmware.

So may I ask if you bought your 606f from China or abroad?
Since mine is a Chinese one, everytime I flash 0805/0906 it ends with *system and hardware not compatible* error. (the same both BL locked and unlocked)
I wonder if this new ROW rom fixes this issue.
Thanks.
i tried but the link doesn't work
EDIT: i tried from rescue and smartaassistant, and i found the update

Can you guide me how to unpack the img files? I tried several but none of those works correctly.
I just want to do some research on what kind of restrictions lenovo does to the rom files.
Thank you.

Sorry, I am not sure if it is what you are looking for, but I downloaded the new ROM with LMSA and I do have all the IMG files in the download directory. I do not know if you can do the same not having the exact same tablet model.

Still a "NO". It's the same: "system and hardware not compatible".
So I flash back to 0520.
I do hope I could spare some time to unpack those imgs to have a check on some specific files next week.
Just be busy all the time with my work...
Engineers from Lenovo China give me no useful answers. I think I can only count on myself.
I tried update to 210923 via LMSA, but not boot.
Then I tried again with qpst 2.7.496, it boot up and get a minor update to 0925.
Still lost serial number.
Que??

It's because your device is Region locked. Within this XDA there is a forum on how to region unlock ur device. You have to use QCN file to change it.
Mine won't update because of region lock and now it's working perfectly
Hey guys, do you know if we still have widevine L1 after updating this ROM with locked bootloader?

I'm not sure thats possible unless the msm files could be found like the ones provided in the thread that i linked, best i can say for now is just use the provided msm i made and update via settings to latest firmware.

The model number wont change by flashing a diferent region rom. Only if you flash the weirdo OOS12 update you will see LE2115 xDD
I flashed with MSM Tool to my LE2110 works very well , but im unchecked all
the model name remain the same too, but no problem finally we have a tool to re-alive our op9
thanks boss
Would this work with the T-Mobile op9? I went that whole India 9pro direction and now my phone can't use the fingerprint sensor or proximity sensor. Any feedback would be great thanks.

Really when I tried that at the Lenovo website it said my pure wasn't eligible
did patching that boot work?
i managed to patch the latest firmware with march security update, and root the stock rom, now i need to mess with gsis

Question how to downgrade sm-a12/5u from sw_rev3 to sw_rev1

i want to install a custom gsi, but it keeps bootlooping. wanted to install buf9 firmware but i cant bc its on sw_rev3 so it doesnt work. any suggestions?

You can't downgrade once you've upgraded
wouldnt there be a way through twrp or brom mode?

Nope you can try brom mode but i dont trust if works
If you buy a samsung device depending of the device (like this A12 and the MTK imei bug) is not a good idea to upgrade

That's samsung for you, once you've upgraded Binary version there's no going back.
As for the brom mode, samsung has locked their phones out of that mode. I don't know if accessing it through access points works but you could try to see if it can help
I tryed to downgrade via TWRP flashing baseband and BL
Now my A12 is DEAD and i dont had a box to repair it (after flash i see the security error screen and flashed again the Binary 3 BL once odin tell me passed the phone doesn't booted again)
I just wanted to get the imei working because the firmware on the binary 3 (11 and 12) android system uses all my ram memory trying to get the signal working
F*** *** Samsung and mediatek next time i bought an exynos or qualcomm variant

The last rom that i used on my A12 was pixel experience and worked perfectly on binary 3 android 11 based firmare (A125MUBUS3BVF1) just installed TWRP with nulled vbmeta flashed the image as system (not as super) and wiped the data (not advanced wipe) rebooted and the gsi was booted (only bugs mentionated on the thread and the touch bug)

As for the brom mode, samsung has locked their phones out of that mode. I don't know if accessing it through access points works but you could try to see if it can help

How'd you do it?
Technically since I've always known that I can't access brom on my samsung I've never tried to understand what you can do with it.

I was only planning yo use the brom mode to use the MTK META Utility which is developed by Mediatek themselves for fixing imei to see if I can fix the imei issue with it but I couldn't enter brom mode and I'm afraid of opening the back cover

its relatively easy tbh. just be careful around the volume buttons, but everything else is okay. there arent too many cables to rip

Its easy to open but be careful with the power/fingerprint sensor flex i think the testpoint is near of the charger flex in the mainboard (i see youtube tutorials to access to Brom mode and preloader)

Hello,
If you're going to be performing a downgrade, you'll have to have the SCATTAR firmware with all of the old loaded certificates and tokens. Flash is going to be performed via BROOM (fused ROM code) useing SP_FLASH_TOOL.
Regarding the IMEI issue, that I'm not able to help with. And it is pain to work with, maybe you the MODEM file could help bout dbout it. You might have to go diging through firmware sites.
Thats it.
Stay safe,
Krypton.

SM-A125U Multitool Kit (Root/TWRP/Unlock/Unbrick)
Here is a toolkit of several tools ive collected and put together for the A12 in a single pack to help see through all the clutter and chaos of this forum, i have an A125U (converterd to a-125w) so thats all i can confirm working 100% but im 99%...

Maybe this can help you only you need to download a firmware (don't try to flash a binary 2 or binary 1 firmware if you do that you phone will get a hardbrick and the sp flashtool will give the 0xC0020029 or the anti roolback error)
Pd: dont forget to change the date to 25/05/2022 to get the mtkmetatool working

You generate it your self
To unlock bootloader on these the easiest way is to convert it to an a125w xac by flashing the a125w bl files. Unlock bootloader with seccfg. Then flash ap, cp, and csc from a125w with odin and when it boots up it should show as a125w. Also in download mode it shows the same. My imei says unknown but i believe thats caused by unlocking bootloader so if you relock it after converting it should go back to normal. Playing with mtk modem tool to rewrite imei. Tried using xposed imei changer but didnt seem effective.
