I have no issues here in US. I flashed the Greek firmware in Odin and all is well through a normal day of usage and apps install as usual via Samsung Apps. I'm about to try reverting just for shiggles and see how that goes, for no reason other than curiosity.

Anything different in this build??
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] smeiff:
Ditto... somehow no one has posted anything about what this build has to offer. I find that sort of strange.
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] oOamnesiaOo:
I honestly haven't noticed anything much. I did notice that the occasional artifacts left behind by a previous screen when scrolling through my apps seem to have stopped. Other than that no visible changes to me.
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] primo523:
I'm also in the US. So flashing the new firmware (Greece) didn't notice much difference? I'm also assuming it did a master reset flashing with odin...

Hi guys, there's a new official BTU firmware available via ota. Change log lists s health improvement plus ui improvement. Will test and report anything extraordinary.

[Moto X Q&A] nhizzat:
Yes, unlock the bootloader and root.
[Moto X Q&A] imparables:
My apologies, just realized you wrote NON rooted. Only way is to root, that I know of. You have the Dev Edition... you're good!
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
Without rooting, you can't modify /system or things under it.

If you have the Dev Edition, you can unlock your bootloader, without voiding the warranty, by requesting the code from Moto and easily root.

I have major battery issues that I was trying to figure out but I guess I will root and flash a custom rom. Where do you put the ROM since there is no external SD? Sorry. First time with a phone with no SD card
[Moto X Q&A] don_xvi:
It's a strange feeling, isn't it?

Nonetheless, you can navigate to any arbitrary location on your built-in storage from within TWRP. I think I dumped it into whatever directory popped up when I connected to my PC as I was copying files over.
[Moto X Q&A] yankeesfan714:
So upon a wipe in twrp before flashing a ROM this data will not be wiped?
[Moto X Q&A] don_xvi:
I installed Eclipse. Don't wipe any sections you don't need to (I did and got into trouble). Wipe Data and do a factory reset. I chose to wipe more and had to adb the .zip down again.

I believe that means the data you have stored on the simulated sdcard directory doesn't get wiped with a wipe of "data".
[Moto X Q&A] yankeesfan714:
That was my question. Stuff in the 0 folder won't be affected by a wipe
[Moto X Q&A] piccit:
I don't have my phone in front of me right now, but whatever the default wipe is in TWRP (I can't remember if they call 'factory reset' or just 'wipe data') will leave the 0 folder untouched, yes.

Doing a format of /data is what you definitely never want to do as that will wipe your 'internal storage' (i.e. 0 folder)
[Moto X Q&A] yankeesfan714:
Thank you.
[Moto X Q&A] nhizzat:
Installing a custom ROM will do nothing if you install the same apps. There are plenty of apps and methods to determine the cause of your battery issues.

What have you done so far in and attempt to diagnose the cause?

adb push twrp.lok /data/local/tmp/twrp.lok

adb shellsucd /data/local/tmpchmod 777 loki_flash./loki_flash recovery /data/local/tmp/twrp.lok

adb push loki_flash /data/local/tmp/loki_flash

it always gives me the same error:

This is in terminal and in Windows.

For terminal, I navigate to my ext sd card. I put everything in a folder called root. From windows, I'm typing adb shell, su, navigate to ext sd/root (where files are).

[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] sporty377:

[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
You can't use Flashify for the loki/TWRP process on the VK810. You have to do it exactly the way it says in the first post.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] sefirosu0522:
Unfortunately, that's not working for me and I can't find a 4.2.2 kdz file. What do you suggest? Flashify worked and I was then able to flash 2.7.0.2.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Did you actually successfully boot both into TWRP and back into the ROM after? I know Flashify will let you flash any recovery, but without the extra steps everything won't be 100% working.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] sefirosu0522:
I did. Went into tarp after Flashify and flashed 2702. Went back into Rom and back to recovery.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Scott:

[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Scott:

[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Possible (re: Flashify).

The other variants of the G Pad 8.3 are used by many others and there's threads regarding them in these sections. I believe you have the model number wrong, or it's so new that there's no info about it on the web. The only VK500 LG has info about is an old flip phone of theirs. Anyway, we should take this subject to a new thread in Q&A perhaps, if necessary since this thread is for the the VK810.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Scott:
Yes, you are correct I meant V500.

Want to root LG-VK810... can't figure out how!

Hey all... I've been working on this for days. I have a LG-VK810 (Build #: KOT49I.VK81024A) that I am trying to root and am having no luck. :(

I have SDK tools installed on my computer. I can use adb commands to reboot etc. but I don't know the exact steps to unlock the bootloader or boot into fastboot to root the damn thing. :confused:

I am pretty computer proficient. I have done a restore, enabled developer mode, USB debug is on and when I connect to my laptop I have USB mode set to internet, ethernet.

I have tried towelroot and Kingo as well as Stump root... none of them work. :rolleyes:

I am ready to scream... can anyone help me with this? :D
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Those are exactly the right instructions and aboot.img you need to flash that using the instructions, and then the instructions in the OP here to get TWRP flashed. Note that you can move the files manually to where they need to be and set the permissions in a file manager (I use X-Plore), and copy/paste the flash command from a text file on your phone to a terminal that allows pasting; or type it.

Hi! You probably should've posted this in it's own thread in Q&A since it's not related to TWRP.

Sounds like you should:

(You could try a factory reset first and if that doesn't help try the following)

1. Move everything from the internal storage that you want to keep.

2. Install the VERIZON-specific LG drivers (v2.20 was the latest recently).

3. Reboot your PC.

4. Hook up your tablet and put it in Ethernet mode.

5. It can take up to 10 minutes for Windows to finish installing the drivers. Open Device Manager in Windows and pay attention to when all the related devices get their drivers installed.

6. Flash the 24A KDZ with LG Flash Tool 2014 from your Windows PC. This is the main thing that has solved this issue for most people; to start completely fresh.

7. Go to Settings / Security and turn on to install apps from Unknown Sources.

8. Go to Settings / About / Software / Build version and tap it 7-10 times in a row fast to enable the Developer's menu.

9. Go to Settings / Developer's and turn on USB Debugging.

10. Install Stump.

11. Run Stump and choose to brute force. Can take 10-20 minutes.

12. Reboot once it says you're rooted.

13. Go to the Play Store and install SuperSU.

14. Run SuperSU and update binaries, reboot.

15. Follow the link in [MENTION=5022682]Hnk1[/MENTION]'s post above and search the thread for "aboot.img". There, you'll find the instructions to downgrade the bootloader.

16. Then follow the instructions in the OP of this thread to install TWRP.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] sporty377:

[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] mmseng:
As has been mentioned by another in this thread, I successfully had 2.7.0.1 installed (4.2.2 aboot.img, etc. etc.), then flashed 2.7.0.2 and now I can't boot to recovery. Any idea what causes this or how to fix it? I should mention the files I'm using were downloaded from this thread months ago. Not sure if the potentially corrupt download is relevant or not. This is on a VK810 BTW.

For now I've just reverted to 2.7.0.1 by following the installation steps again. :eek:

Edit: Looks like it was the file. I downloaded the "good" version from this post and now am able to get into 2.7.0.2.

Edit 2: Scratch that. It seems as though the "boot into recovery" keypresses are just really finicky. When I boot holding [Power]+[Vol. Down] I get mixed results. It pretty much always shows me the menu where I would select to factory reset, which is supposed to boot into TWRP. But after I select that option and confirm, it sometimes hangs at the battery screen and eventually restarts through the LG logo and into system, sometimes goes to LG logo and boots into system, and sometimes goes to the LG logo and boots into TWRP. I haven't figured out a pattern yet.
