Not sure?? I just know being rooted and doing the Value Package via OTA "soft bricked" my phone and I was stuck in a boot loop that kept booting into TWRP. I found time early this morning to flash the stock image to get it back up and going, but it was scary at first thinking I lost everything.
[LG Optimus G Pro] k0p4n:
I don't think that's it.

In my first try, I had rooted then installed TWRP, flashed the "hide q-slides" zip then selected software update.

I kept postponing it because I had to drain my battery (I had just bought the phone)

So when it finally turned off, I charged it full when off. When I turned it back on, it was looping to TWRP.

The second time after reflashing to stock, I rooted then downloaded the update from the LG server or wherever it is.

I selected update and as it was rebooting I got a 0x13E error.

The phone rebooted and I went to the software update section and it said that this device was suspected of rooting and that software updates are not supported for rooted devices.

I don't think there are that many updates in the latest ver anyway.

I'm just gonna try installing TWRP again.
[LG Optimus G Pro] tele_jas:
Let me know how it goes! I'm up and running with the latest update...... I'm afraid to install TWRP, don't want to start all over again :eek:
[LG Optimus G Pro] Jammol:
You can't run the update unless you have stock recovery. You have to get the update first then root, then install custom recovery. The update needs stock recovery to run.
[LG Optimus G Pro] k0p4n:
it works! so far...lol

i flashed small things like hiding the carrier label and the qslides.

The phone reboots fine lol

im not going to do the update from lg because it wont let rooted phones update anyway

unless the update is for like 4.2.2 or something im not gonna worry about lg updates

How do I remove twrp
[LG Optimus G Pro] psal217050:
Same answer as in the other thread. You should have a recorvery, either TWRP or CWM on your phone. I would follow the advice in the opening pages of this thread and flash CWM if you don't want TWRP.
[LG Optimus G Pro] jason504:
Why is so hard to flash recovery and stuff on this phone on my s3 everything was a lot easier
[LG Optimus G Pro] psal217050:
From what I understand it is because the bootloader is locked. Once that resolved, I am sure some new flashes will come along. It took me a while to figure out LGFlashTool but once I did, flashing isn't so bad. Of course, being able to just flash from your phone no matter where you are is great until you brick the phone and need a PC to get you back to working.
[LG Optimus G Pro] fryguy128:
It's not super hard if you first root then use project freegee.

Current Devices:

LG Optimus G Pro (LG-E980)

Project FreeGee

Actually you can use FreeGee to swap between recoveries, I first installed TWRP but was having problems with it, so I went back to FreeGee and ran it again and this time I chose to install CWM recovery and problem solved. You can use FreeGee to swap recoveries very easy so it is worth to pay the $1.00 for the premium app.

Is there currently only one Rom for this device?
[LG Optimus G Pro] psal217050:
Two, if you count stock and CM10. But there will eventually be more.
[LG Optimus G Pro] k0p4n:
doesnt work..it was fine after all this time and now the phone said there was an update. I said yes and it started bootlooping...piece of junk someone unlock the bootloader please...
[LG Optimus G Pro] psal217050:
Once rooted you shouldn't take OTA update. You will need to use LG Flashtool and put the stock image back on and then do the value package the same way. Then root it. Phone works fine that way.
[LG Optimus G Pro] starryeyez:
Thank you Thank You .......
[LG Optimus G Pro] Jammol:
You can download the latest update posted by cubed and use lgflashtools to flash it instead of having to go back to stock and then update.

E980 (AT&T) running Carbon rom 4.3.1

Hi everybody, I rooted my LGOGP (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2362657) then installed FreeGee (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=43789352) to install TWRP 2.5, used that to flash Carbon rom (android 4.3.1 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2439911).

All is well with the rom, running great....Howerver now I can't use the touch pad in recovery, so my twrp backups are useless. Will this version of TWRP work with my setup?

If not, any suggestions? I'm finding a lot of info but not formatted/explained in a overly organized format. Information overload, not sure what to use/trust as there seems to be some conflicting info. For example it says in the carbon rom's 3rd post to use Madmack's TWRP recovery, but doesn't link it, I assume it means the CM 10.2 unofficial rom that Madmack has (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2430456) but on that page it says specifically not to flash that recovery if you are on the E980.

:confused:

Edit, as I'll be using ADB for this please give complete instructions and/or link the instructions/files to them if you are suggesting something other than the OP in this thread.
[LG Optimus G Pro] dxwilliams40:
Same happened to me. Download flashify (maybe misspelled) from the playstore. Then Download the newest lokied version of twrp. Use flashify to flash it without the need to go into recovery. It will finish upon a reboot. The next time you reboot into recovery you will have the touch friendly version. You can restore your backup or continue using the 4.3 rom of your choice.
[LG Optimus G Pro] mog44net:
Much appreciaed, downloading app now (you spelled it correctly fyi). There seem to be 4038910 links and versions of twrp on the forums at the moment, can you recommend one? Normally I would just download one but as I stated above the version recommended in my Rom of choice (Carbon) is the one off Madmacks page, which he says will brick my phone...

Is there a central TWRP site that has all the phone's recovery's in one place? http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp doesn't have it listed as a supported device.
[LG Optimus G Pro] dxwilliams40:
The version on madmacks page is the correct one.

---------- Post added at 05:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:01 PM ----------

If you are talking about this one (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2430456) he specifically says not to flash it on E980 (at&t) phones as it will brick it.
[LG Optimus G Pro] dxwilliams40:
Look at the first post in that thread. He says do not flash if you don't have the E980 device

I have twrp installed via FreeGee. It recognizes my internal storage, and I only have 600-700 mb free. I have a 64 gb memory card with 38 gb free. However twrp doesn't list my external sd card.

Now for the question, does anyone else have this issue?

Does anyone have any advise?

It is a sandisk class 10.
[LG Optimus G Pro] droidzika:
You may have to use a hacked twrp. I had the same issue with my SD card. The twrp I downloaded with freegee didn't recognize it. So to do so I tried this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=46572993&postcount=52 and it was recognized. However, I couldn't flash my rooted stock room with it because it was made with non hacked twrp. To do so you need to make a nand with the hacked twrp. I was too lazy, so just reverted to freegee's twrp.

[LG Optimus G Pro] dhanmohan:
will this work for e98020g? i rooted with towel root... how to flash this recovery?
[LG Optimus G Pro] culot:
- Download G Pro Recovery and Freegee.

- Open G Pro Recovery and select the 'Flash Recovery' option at the of the menu.

- Then open Freegee and choose your recovery. (Probably not a bad idea to take advantage of the EFS backup there and transfer that backup off the phone for emergency purposes.)

Towelroot -> G Pro Recovery -> Freegee == works for me every time.

Hi guys Ive been using wifi tether for root. Im on T-mobile's unlimited 4g network. For some reason I started getting the T-mobile message saying I don't have hotspot and I got a text saying I have reached my 500mb hotspot limit. Anyone getting this too? Maybe a fix?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] angelr429:
I got that today, idk whats going on :( I use the wifi tether but not the hotspot
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] wondermixx:
So has anyone found a solution for this, would really appreciate the help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gaww:
Hotspot = tether - no difference.

The reference to the 500mb limit is new - but have they throttled you yet? If not, just keep on trucking.

If they have, you might consider trying one of the custom ROM's that have native tethering build in. Or, maybe first try the APN Backup and Restore App. It has a modified APN that has worked well for me on the Stock ROM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] R.Suave:
Got it yesterday as well using custom rom with tether built in and hotspot shield vpn app. Did T-Mobile find the loophole? :eek:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] angelr429:
What I meant was that I was using the "wifi tether for root users" app and not the stock "t mobile hotspot" :) I know hotspot and tether is the same thing lol :D

Anyways.. today it said I hit my limit of 500MB and ive never used the stock hotspot app just the "wifi for root users"

So now I dont have wifi in my laptop and I have homework to turn in :o

Just to let you know I used cyanogenmod which has wifi tethering built in and thats when I hit the limit :(

What do you mean APN? how do I do that? Much help would be appreciated
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] R.Suave:
He/she is talking about this app. But "NOTE: Starting with Android 4.0/ICS, 3rd Party apps don't have access to write APN settings, hence this app no longer works for restoring APN backups as a normal app. You can convert it to a System app using Titanium Backup on a rooted phone and use. Instructions:

- Open Titanium Backup

- Go to backup/restore tab

- Find APN Backup & Restore on the list

- Long press on the app when you find it

- Select Convert to system app

- Open APN Backup & Restore

- Click menu and disable ICS check

But... [MENTION=3019752]gaww[/MENTION] I really don't see how this can help. How would one use a "modified APN" if no backup is created. The app is only a backup/restore app if im not mistaken...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] angelr429:
I say we both use it ;) and see if that can fix the problem? :D

---------- Post added at 06:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:56 PM ----------

Hey did you try it out? And if you did, did it work? :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gaww:
The developer of the app also created a modified APN which need to be downloaded and put in the AppBackupRestore folder after you have installed the app per the above. I recommend backing up the stock APN(s).

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] angelr429:
Hey can it be uploaded somewhere else because its not letting me download it through dropbox :( or can you email me the apn file? :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] R.Suave:
Thanks for the help but I also couldn't download it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] angelr429:
I wasnt abe to doenload it either :( I really want to use my hotspot

The above link might work now. I tried to simply attach it to my response, but the XDA upload popup said error - invalid file.

Hey thanks!! Youre the best I will try it out

---------- Post added at 11:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:05 PM ----------

Hey let me now if replacing the the APN with the new one [MENTION=3019752]gaww[/MENTION] provided works for the wifi tethering

---------- Post added at 11:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:15 PM ----------

Does your LTE work with this custom APN?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gaww:
Don't think so but no way to know. It is an act of God that I even get 4g in western North Carolina - lol.

One more thing. When used with stock ROM, could not turn on tethering with Stock settings - had to install and use Tethering Widget to turn it on and off. I was able to turn it on and off with regular settings on custom ROMs though.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Crxdc:
I rooted my phone then I Installed Wifi tether for root users and Hideman (gives 4 free hours per day of VPN service).

First turn on the Hideman

Second turn on the Wifi tether

third surf the web (do we still say that)

I Verified with the t-mobile data and it all is going toward my unlimited plan instead of the 500mb hotspot they give.

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DonKilluminati23:
At first I thought it was a rom issue, but it happens to be on every 4.2.2 rom I've tried. Then I thought it was a kernel issue - until I tried nitros rom which is blur based 4.1.2.

The problem? I drive a lot, the ability to use apps such as beyond pod, mlb at bat (to listen to my tigers!), tune in radio etc. Is very important to me. If I download a podcast and begin to play it, it's only a matter of time before my phone freezes up and reboots. Same for the other apps I mentioned. Usually it takes less than 5 minutes for my phone to freeze / reboot.

This has happened to me for a while now, and it does seem to get worse on certain roms / nightlies, but virtually across the board, the result is the same. I have tried carbon, liquid smooth, xenon hd, as well as nitros roms.

I am very frustrated at the moment, as I have no real options other than going back to stock, which sucks because I am in love with so many of the features available with the aforementioned custom roms. Any help or feedback would be appreciated!

Edit: meant to post this in help section, I apologize

Moto does know about this, I am having the same issue, and the latest update (the OTA leaking around here) has that listed as one of the fixes. Does not say specific scenarios, but just "reboot issues mitigated". This will be my first full day running it, and I have alot of driving to do, so i'll know in the next couple hours if Moto happened to fix it.

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hollovoid:
Will do, have had reboots at least once a day since the JB upgrade, so far since yesterday none.. will update later tonight on how it went, should have at least one by then if its not fixed.

Im just hoping whatever moto did can be used to stabilize the AOSP roms too, because audio playback reboots me on those even more than stock did.

Update: I think Moto did it, I drove 70 miles with music playing the whole time and not one reboot. Very impressed, have never gone that long, cept when the phone was on ics..
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DonKilluminati23:
Awesome! Hopefully the 4.2.2 roms will benefit soon. The two main culprits for me have been listening to to podcasts (beyondpod) and mlb at bat, but I have also noticed watching videos on YouTube can cause the reboots as well, though it takes a video of a decent length to recreate the problem.

Also, there are times I go an hour without a lockup, but once I get one, they begin to occur more frequently. Just my observations. Maybe I'll try the update, what's the easiest way to flash? I'm assuming I need stock recovery etc?
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hollovoid:
Yeah need stock recovery, and need a sdcard because stock recovery wont read internal memory :confused:

After that, if you need to re install recovery and re root gotta do it with adb and fastboot, because the auto utils dont work right anymore, was going nuts thinking things got patched up until I tried it manually and it worked, lol.
