Help! Found the ioroot .img files!

I think I have great news. I looked in my ioroot folder and found both of the files (3 MB each) that are modemst1.img and modemst2.img.

I created a folder on the Internal called EFS_Backup, and I copied and pasted those two files into the new folder, renaming them efs1 and efs2. They renamed and stuck in the folder just fine, but running the ADB commands didn't work. So I used the flashable EFS zip in TWRP and it said FAILED.

I'm thinking since I have these 2 files I should be able to fix this, right???? But...the thing that's driving me nuts is that LG Flash Tool, no matter what version, will NOT work on my device anymore. Not with either of my PC's.

Does anyone have a suggestion for what to do now that I found those modem files in my ioroot folder?

I feel like this is the closest I have gotten and now I'm stuck. LG Flash Tools never worked on Windows 8. The OLDER versions worked fine with .tot files BEFORE all of this happened, in Windows 7. Now even Windows 7 won't work to use LG Flash Tools, after I created this mess.

Can anyone PLEASE help me take these 2 files and get them to fix my EFS? I really don't know what I'm doing, clearly, or I would have backed up my EFS first. Problem here is probably same everywhere...I've always done this, never bothered with Nandroid or EFS backups, but also never had the issue of only having an internal memory on an Android device. Stupid mistake.

I would greatly appreciate any help that can be offered. I have one more day and I can still take this phone back...IF I can fix it. Thank you in advance!

PS: I Have my ESN, MEID HEX, MEID DEC, IMEI, ICCID AND IMSI - ALL POPULATED WITH NUMBERS IN SETTINGS. WHAT IS "UNKNOWN" IS MY PHONE NUMBER AND MY PRL.

NFC

Is there anyway that I could use NFC if I'm using a VZ G2 using this rom on T-Mo. I know the OP said that NFC is broken but is there a .zip or something for the ones that's not using the Sprint variant.

it was Sprint connection causing me issues.

New way to stop update notifications

Apparently Google updated the Google Play Services app in a manner that now IT is in charge of the UPDATE service rather than Google Services Framework. But I have found a NEW app that is free and helps kill off updates called" Disable Service" which can be found on Google Play.

From the app, go to the System Apps side and look for the Google Play Services section and UNcheck the SystemUpdateService option. Reboot and done.
[Sprint LG G2] youngcalihottie:
Thank you OP for this awesome ROM! This is exactly what I needed!!!
[Sprint LG G2] youngcalihottie:
Thanks for the app info! It's working great! (For some reason the update service was still in the Framework for me)

---------- Post added at 04:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:59 AM ----------

Anyone else getting these errors or know how I could correct them?

"Unfortunately, Life Square Log Manager has stopped. [ OK ]"

This one pops up every reboot. Shows twice.

"Unfortunately, IPService has stopped. [ OK ]"

This one pops up every time I go to Settings > Tethering & networks

Also pops up when leaving that screen.

"Unfortunately, Messaging has stopped [ OK ]"

This one pops up any time I try to click the Messaging app.

Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

Update: Previous errors were with debloated rom. out of curiosity i flashed the tmostock (w/bloat) and i am not receiving a single error anymore!
[Sprint LG G2] Crossvxm:
your welcome. And did you do a clean install (e.g. wipe everything in recovery EXCEPT internal storage)?

And what rom did you come from?
[Sprint LG G2] youngcalihottie:
This is the first time I've ever done something like this, so it's possible I am to blame. I didn't know how to go about doing each of the steps in the OP, so I followed a mix of instructions throughout the forums. Here's what I did:

-Factory Reset Phone from Settings

-Wiped data & cache from Recovery Menu options

-Rooted using ioroot

-Booted phone to Download AutoRec and copy ROM, Modem, and Firmware to internal storage

-Installed TWRP

-Wiped data, cache, and dalvik from TWRP when i noticed that option was there too and because I went into android since last wipe

-Installed debloated ROM v2 from OP with TWRP

-Wiped again using prompt from TWRP after installing

-Installed Modem and Firmware even though I came from Stock Sprint ZVC because Reasons (joke. i did it just to be safe)

-Wiped again using prompt from TWRP after installing each because why the hell not may as well be safe and I don't really get it lol

-Upon first boot, TWRP asked if I wanted to install supersu. I clicked yes.

-Once android loaded, I got a notification asking to install SuperSU from Play or TWRP. I went with TWRP.

Maybe something in there wasn't right? I got those three errors mentioned, and also Sprint CDMA was still working. Don't know if that's right or not? I'm not sure if the SIM card slot was working at the time too because my T-Mobile SIM hadn't activated yet, as I just signed up for an account as I did all this. The Mobile Networks option in Settings was disabled.

-Copied the Stock v2 ROM from OP to internal storage

-Went to TWRP

-Wiped data, cache, and davik from TWRP

-Installed Stock v2 ROM from OP

-Upon first boot, TWRP asked if I wanted to install supersu. I clicked yes.

-Once android loaded, I got a notification asking to install SuperSU from Play or TWRP. I went with TWRP.

Now everything is working 100% and I'm very excited! My account finally got activated on the switch, and since my previous post my port has been completed.

I have a few questions if you don't mind.

1) Was there a better order to do those steps / did I do anything wrong?

2) Was I supposed to somehow "remove" ZVC and debloated ROMs first or does each install overwrite the previous?

3) I haven't even tried NFC because I'm assuming it doesn't work from everything I've read. Does it work now? Or is there any chance I could donate towards it being worked on? I'd like to be able to use Isis (tap to pay), but would that even be possible with this type of setup?

4) The CDMA side no longer works. I don't get any Sprint signal except for Manual Network Selection shows Sprint LTE but will not connect to it successfully. Is this correct that I'm now GSM/WCDMA only just like a T-Mobile G2?

Thank you a million times to everyone who did any work along the way that contributed to this! I'm sure it must be a lot of work putting these ROMs and tools together and then helping out will the millions of questions that follow!

Update to #3: I tried loading Isis and it says "This phone has been rooted and is not supported" Is there a way around that?Would I screw anything up if I unroot? Is unrooting even a thing? lol. Thanks!
[Sprint LG G2] jimenezboy:
This ROM rocks.!

I've been using this ROM for a few weeks now. It's perfect for every LS980 owner out there on GSM. I mistakenly downloaded the non-debloated version, but I've managed to disable/freeze 32 stock apps. Useless carrier and manufacturer and Google-bundled apps have no place on my phone.

I made this Flash Zip for LS980 it will fix the NFC
[Sprint LG G2] kdm212:
not sure if this is a stupid question but ill ask. perhaps it may not even be specific to this rom. anyway, if i tether with this rom does tmobile have the ability to see its tethered? for instance i have unlimited data but im capped for tethering at 5gb. please...no flaming...:confused:
[Sprint LG G2] Crossvxm:
Has anyone found a way to enable LTE bands on this rom? And please do not say its hardware related as its not. Read on various other device forums and see how with a few edits its been enabled. I understand most of us are satisfied with just 4G, but would love to see LTE on this phone for the true T-Mobile experience.
[Sprint LG G2] Crossvxm:
Does not work on this rom. Then again lots of things to flash over the rom are hard including SuperSU. It does actually let you use the switches, but doesn't turn on at all.
[Sprint LG G2] Demo3827:
kernel maybe?

it depend of the kernel also but it does work on my LS980
[Sprint LG G2] Crossvxm:
Ah i see. I still dont know what can be flashed over this rom. Heck i don't even know if the High Temperature Property setting works just as it would on a regular T-Mobile variant. Getting root to work properly succeeds in 1 in every 3 LS980s with this rom.

[Sprint LG G2] kryptonite:
If you have a Custom recovery rom and are using this ROM , then DO NOT install the OTA update that you get. If you do then you will be stuck in a recovery loop . There is a solution to fix that , but try not to get there in the first place.

Here is how to resolve it , if you get stuck in the recovery loop, incase you accepted the Tmobile OTA.

I have now gone back to the Stock ZVD firmware of Sprint , but the Signal Strength (Using GSM and in India) is poor with the stock ZVD rom , it was better with TMOBILE rom V2 that's discussed in this topic, is there any edits / changes I can make to the sprint stock ZVD rom to have the same kind of signal strength as the TMOBILE rom for GSM carriers ?
[Sprint LG G2] kryptonite:
Could you please help me understand how you fixed this " the status bar now shows the correct signal strength" My Signal strength is stuck to 1 bar

Says device model is different and to check phone or dll. There was a kdz file that was modded to flash with the new lgflashtool to make your phone say ls980 again instead of d801. Does anyone have it?

No way to turn off OTA

I've installed this rom on maybe a hundred phones and I've yet to find a way to turn off that annoying ****ing OTA.

Disable services

Autostarts- both do nothing

Going into a file manager, even setting r/w permissions you can't delete the FOTA or the OTAcerts zip.

The best I can do is delete the actualy OTA in the CACHE folder and reboot. But the notification still remains in the notification bar.

If anyone has successfully stopped the notification I'd be tickled to find out how you did it.
[Sprint LG G2] apexcell:
Have you tried long pressing the OTA notification, going into the application info, and unselecting notifications?
[Sprint LG G2] 2strokenut:
That was one of the first things I did, its still there.
[Sprint LG G2] apexcell:
Weird, that's what fixed it for me on this ROM.

[Sprint LG G2] Crossvxm:
Did you flash the ZVC Modem etc? You must flash that, doesnt matter if before or after. Download in step 3. and 6. of the first post in this thread. Also download the White Lines fix incase you have the special G2, it will fix the graphical glitches IF you get it. You will notice you have it once you turn off the screen and back on. If not, dont flash it.

Also, why do you wonder if the unlock works for international? There is a section for that as well, and you can keep your stock Sprint rom for that. If your here in the US, use this rom.

DO NOT TAKE THE SYSTEM UPDATE WHEN IT DOWNLOADS.

YOU WILL BRICK!!!

Once you see the update notification, go to Google Play and search Disable Service, the first app which should be a blue andoid character, is the one you want to download. You need root, to fix issues with root, download the flashable SuperSU zip, reboot into TWRP, mount the System, flash and reboot. Open the Disable Service app, switch to the "System" tab and look for Google Play Services. Scroll down to "SystemUpdateService" and uncheck it. Reboot and the notification will never appear again, that is assuming Google Play Services doesn't change in a future.

[Sprint LG G2] Crossvxm:
If you have a USB OTG cable and a flash drive, VERY VERY handy right now. Transfer those files to the flash drive, connect the USB OTG with the flash drive to your G2 in TWRP, and flash it from there.

Since 95% of people do not have a USB OTG and a flash drive around like me, you need to push those manually. I had posted about this before on another thread but I cannot remember where. You need to download Koush's Universal ADB driver:

http://download.clockworkmod.com/test/UniversalAdbDriverSetup.msi

Connect your G2 to your computer while in TWRP, then manually point to this driver, some computers do it for you.

Once you can get the phone detected, check the connection via ADB, if serials show, it is working. Next you need to push the ZVC firmware and modem files from step 3. and 6. manually, they must be in your ADB directory, and you will use the command:

adb push filename.zip /sdcard/

It will then be on the G2 and you can flash it. This is why it is always good to create a backup. If you cannot understand the second solution I mentioned, or you do not have a computer, it is easier to buy a USB OTG and a flash drive.
[Sprint LG G2] Gambitv01:

[Sprint LG G2] Crossvxm:
Install the driver, make sure you see what directory it is going to install to just incase. Connect your G2 in TWRP mode to your computer and see if the computer installs that driver, trust me, naturally, the computer will not detect it in TWRP at all. If it doesnt auto install (usually the case on Windows XP) then right click My Computer (or Computer) and select properties. Somewhere there you should see Device Manager. Look for your undetected G2, if you cannot find it, disconnect it and reconnect it and you should notice which item from that list dissapeared and reappeared. Right click it and select update driver. Use the directory where the Universal Driver installed and install it that way. Once installed, use ADB to test it. It is best to have your ADB folder,and setup in the main section of your hard drive, which would mean c:\adb, not c:\Program Files\adb. To test ADB is detecting the G2 in TWRP, type ADB devices. If some,numbers and letters show after it starts Daemon, then its ready. If not, the driver wasnt installed correctly or you may want to reboot your PC. Once it is detected, then toss the firmware and modem files in your adb folder. To make things easier, rename the modem file into "modem.zip" and the firmware file into "firmware.zip" and then type in adb:

adb push modem.zip /sdcard/

OR

adb push modem.zip /data/media/0

Same for the firmware.zip. It should now be in your G2 sdcard folder where you can now,flash it. When pushing a file, you know its pushing if adb doesnt show,any words for a while until it says "pushed ####kb in ####seconds" or similar.

---------- Post added at 02:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:33 AM ----------

Remember this ADB driver needs to be installed while in TWRP and used while in TWRP.

[Sprint LG G2] Crossvxm:
Did you download the modem firmware file and put them in the exact folder where your adb.exe file is? Rename them to make it easier. Then just:

adb push modem.zip /sdcard/

or instead of "/sdcard/" try /data/media/0

---------- Post added at 03:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:51 AM ----------

If you need a shortcut, install this:

http://skipsoft.net/download/toolkit/nexus7toolkit/Google_Nexus_7_ToolKit_v5.0.0.exe

From there, go into the folder it is installed to, look for the "tkmain.exe" file. Create a shortcut of that to your desktop. In this same folder, look for a folder that says "put files to push here" and put the modem and firmware file there. Now open the tkmain app from your desktop. Once opened, make sure your device serial shows up on the top. Look for the option that says "push" files. If my memory serves me well, that is option 13. When it asks about a "insecure boot" or whatever, type yes. As you proceed, you should see your modem file listed in the options, type it EXACTLY as it is named (e.g. modem.zip, all letters that are caps must be caps, lowercase must be lowercase, etc). When it asks where, it should show you examples of how you should type sdcard. Type it that way (e.g. /sdcard/ )

Wait for it to finish, repeat the same for the other file.

Check via TWRP install to see,if you find those files and flash them. Then reboot and your,good to go.

I've tried almost every rom for the ls980 and I believe most of them come unlocked (can use gsm if want to). I have T-Mobile on my ls980 and haven't ran into any problems. Just make sure that you change your radio(network type) to wcdma or gsm.

i just want everyone to know i have been on this rom for quite some time with quite a few different carriers my device is modded heavaly with android tuner massive amounts of exposed tweaks all with trial and error i get roughly 4 to 5 days on a single charge with light to moderate use but id love to install a aftermarket kernal to overclock and try the overcharge optins in android tuner
[Sprint LG G2] Jammol:
You can only flash the kernel for your actual device. DO NOT FLASH ANY OTHER KERNEL FOR ANOTHER CARRIER'S DEVICE TO YOURS. Even though your phone may state in the about section that its a D800 instead of what the phone actually is, do not flash a D800 kernel. You will brick. Just stick to using kernels for LS980 ONLY!
