LG G2 .. How to unroot
I have VS980 ... I rooted phone through stumproot about a year ago.... the sofware version in my phone is the 26A currently and of coarse being rooted doesnt allow OTA firmware updates to be installed for 28A then Lollipop 39A: ... ive noticed about a week ago that my microphone on phone calls and google voice search have stopped working accept on speaker or bluetooth for phone calls and bluetooth only for voice search ... being the phone is running on 26A version, I believe it is a software upgrade issue because the phone still works on speaker ... now here are my questions if anybody can help me:
1) Is there a way to push the software update without losing root access ? ... I did however backup all files, contacts, pics, etc to verizon cloud in case unroot or factory restore is necessary
- if anyone can provide me with the links to do this or even to unroot the phone in worse case scenario so i can upgrade including any flash tools or or even if there is an updated mic driver I can
- is there just a simple way to update my microphone driver without affecting root?
- I have been researching this for past week and have a few links I have found accept I am unsure which tool kit would be necessary if any for this issue
Thank you so much if you could help me...

Hi, I have a rooted chinese Honor 6+ on EMUI 3.0 and I'm trying to upgrade it to Lollipop. Reason is I had problems with the phone and I factory reset it (turns out it was the sd card causing all problems) and now I don't see any Motion Control options at all, it's blank.
Also, I wanted to be able to restore and backup on google as currently mine has an option (screenshot attached) but doesn't really work. I lost all my settings when I reset the phone.
Any ideas on how to flash either Lollipop or flash a rom with all the google stuff and motion control settings properly working? Phone is rooted with CWM recovery.
Anyway to fix this ?
More details:
I unlocked the bootloader and flashed TWRP on H60-L04. Then I put back the stock recovery (from B521 firmware) and installed firmware B524 which skipped some percentage with faild message quickly and rebooted then the build number is updated and all good except the Motion Control options which are blank. Any way to fix this ?
Now I put back the TWRP. Thank you in advance !
Hi
my phone call applicatin is missing and not work.
Android 5.1
This Applicatin Even after returning to factory settings it did not return.
New android 6 is Available for this phone , But the only way to install that Flash application with PC is to work
please help me
if you update a firmware to a different bootloader for this phone (rooted Karnel with Twrp if it matters) can you no longer go back to an older version?
also, I'm still on android 8... is native call recording possible? I tried coping the xml stuff and it was... it messed with my phones CSC/ commutations and I had to hard restart
this time I will android backup but I wonder if its possible or if I should settle for the best app?
I just brought an unlocked Oneplus 9 and using it on T-mobile network. I am having the following problems with Android 12 (OOS LE2115_11_C.61). I am wondering if Android 11 have these problems as well or not (only had the phone for less than 2 days).
1. Wifi Calling: Able to dial call but unable to hear audio from the other party. However, they can hear me w/o any issues. Tried resetting my network, it didn't resolve this issue. Currently using phone w/ wifi calling off.
2. Lockscreen Issue: There are no option to hide the actual pattern lock and also the pattern lock placement seems to moved further up on the screen.
3. Battery charging time no longer indicates on the lockscreen.
4. Sometimes the "Close All" button only closes all other apps besides the last one I were on. Sometimes it works. So, it's random.
If downgrading to Android 11 resolve some of the above issues, I have the following questions about the downgrade.
1. Is there a way to back up all my apps and app data locally and restore it after downgrade (like Tatinium Backup)?
2. Does downgrade require unlock bootloader?
3. If unlocked bootloader, would you suggest root, go for a custom rom or stay with OOS 11?
4. If downgrade to OOS 11, is there a way to keep security update w/o going to Android 12?
Thanks in advance!

1. Use Swift Backup. However, you will have to move all your data to a PC because it'll wipe when you go back to 11.
2. No. You'll have to unlock it again. Don't move your data back until after you unlock the bootloader though as it factory resets as part of it.
3. I rooted. My big thing is Gravity Box and ad blockers. Stayed with OOS though. Others are too much hassle compared to previous OPs. xXx (Magisk Rom) from the 7 and 8 days still works fairly well on 11. It hasn't been updated, but it also don't touch anything underneath. If you don't like it, it's easy to get rid of. It's customizable by a text profile you edit.
4. Not that I know of. I believe OP has gone on to A12. If you root, you can't take OTAs, you have to have full images. You can download them from one of the stickies.

1. If you use the local back up option under settings > system settings > back up and reset > local backup then most of your apps get backed up, but the downloaded data will not be saved and you have to log into the accounts on each app. I'm still looking for another way to backup, but I'm hesitant because this method of backup retains my T-Mobile SIM settings after I converted it to Global.
2. I was on OOS 12.41 on a T-Mobile branded OP9, and when I used @craznazn 's MSM conversion tool, it downgraded my phone to Global OOS 11.2.2. I suppose if you wanted to downgrade you could use his tool, or any MSM tool made for a T-Moble version on OOS 11, and it would boot that version, and then you could update to the latest 11.
3. I would suggest root if you have your bootloader and sim unlocked, if not, I would just stay on a stable version of OOS since you wouldn't be able to flash under fastboot or anything of the sort.
4 I don't think OP is doing security updates for the OP9 on 11 since it supports 12, but the option to go back is always there via MSM conversion through EDL mode on your phone.

Swift Backup is great for backing up the stuff that you'll want to save, such as Messages, Call Logs, Apps + App Data, some other things. Root is required for the App data backup, otherwise you can still use it for most functions without being rooted, or to enable more backup features without root, you can adb grant SECURE_WRITE to the app. Definitely worth checking out.

Oh wow yeah I'll definitely have to check it out! I've been testing my OP9 going back and forth from Tmo to Global to find the most reliable way to get there with the modem still intact, as I'm still a couple of days away from getting my unlock token.
