I believe he said that he took the ZVC Tot and took the ZVD update. But didn't get the ZVE update. So he should be with Stock recovery.

I'm on ZVC as well and have TWRP. I don't want to take a tot and wipe out my settings. It's a pain to get everything back up (I love that about Lollipop. On the Nexus 5, it restored everything from Wallpapers to folders etc.). I have been unable to install the stock recovery. My post here
[Sprint LG G2] RohanM:
It is called sideload.. sideload from cache.. atleast try to go to recovery.. everything Is there.

What computer do you have? The keyboard looks exactly like mine xD
[Sprint LG G2] BecomingDeath13:
So what exactly did this update do LTE wise? I just pulled the update, updated my profile and I'm still showing the bsr timer and all other LTE settings unchanged.
[Sprint LG G2] freimanis:
Good day! I've applied ZVE update, but the program version is ZVD in About info. Is it normal?
[Sprint LG G2] lurtis:
So i got the OTA in my sleep last night. Updated upon getting up. Just checked my settings. My bsrtimer is 3000 and my lte scan is set to 5.
[Sprint LG G2] RohanM:
Not Normal.. it's not updated to ZVE then.
[Sprint LG G2] mmaltba2326:
thanks i was able to get it last night . first i was getting a error 7 but it was due to my build.prop due to modding so i had to reroot then go in and fix that but afterwards it worked like a charm and then i rerooted with STump all is good here !!

---------- Post added at 04:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:42 PM ----------

when you applied the update were you rooted? what screens did it go through after it rebooted ..mine did the same thing i thought it took the update but bc i was rooted it didn't do anything
[Sprint LG G2] official.xian:
Is there a way to revert to Stock recovery without doing a TOT? Also, is there a way to block Android from downloading the update? I'm a bit OCD about the space on my phone and 200Mb is a sizable chunk, I delete the file from cache but it just redownloads. Along those same lines, what about blocking the download on 3G? Cause that's how I blew through my data plan in August.
[Sprint LG G2] freimanis:
Thank you! I'll try to install offline update by adb sideload.
[Sprint LG G2] rocket321:
/cache is pre-allocated a set amount of space so it is not available for your personal use whether it is being used or not.

You can disable the ota, I saw a thread on how to do it that involved renaming some otacert files and such, a little searching should turn it up.
[Sprint LG G2] official.xian:
Okay, thanks.
[Sprint LG G2] Fnord12:
Aarg.. something may have gotten goofed up somewhere

i'm getting this:

"/system/app/xtra_t_app.odex" has unexpected contents

I don't suppose someone knows a fix that doesn't involve TOTing back to ZVC? I don't want to have to do that (and lose all of my settings and stuff) Currently on ZVD and sort of stuck there at the moment.
[Sprint LG G2] autoprime:
updated OP with link to new ZVE TOT (thanks to anon donor)...

soon it'll be as easy as...

flash ZVE TOT > root with Stump > flash TWRP :good:
[Sprint LG G2] Sathya_ks:
Thank you!!!!

Thank you very much!!!!

I have a silly question. Please clarify:

I have LS980, using in India, Sim unlocked permanently for GSM (Thanks to you guys!!). Installed TWRP in ZVD (using the Autorec method), Patched for white screen issue.

I got a notification for the ZVE update. After referring your thread, Didn't want to apply OTA since TWRP and others changes. I thought of changing to stock ZVC, then apply ZVD and then ZVE (flashed thru stock recovery) as per your suggestion. I just got your update for the ZVE TOT. My question is: Can i directly apply this ZVE TOT and get the updated stock ROM ?? will it affect the SIM Unlock??

Please redirect me if it is already answered...

Thanks guys... you are doing a great job!!!!
[Sprint LG G2] RohanM:
Hi,

Me too from India, LS 980 Unlocked.

If you .tot ZVE the you will lose GSM unlock. So please only take direct OTA or flash through cache from stock recovery.
[Sprint LG G2] Sathya_ks:
Thanks yaar...

But, cant we unlock it by following the old way?? I think it is pretty simple... :eek:
[Sprint LG G2] Fnord12:
I assume the directions for the ZVE tot are the same as the ZVC one, just replace the file you shovel at the phone? It's increasingly looking like i'll have to do that to do the ZVE update due to something that I did on ZVD.
[Sprint LG G2] RohanM:
It may work, but according to me GSM unlock best works with ZV7 & ZV8 .. I tot back to ZVC & unlocked => took ZVD & ZVE but now whenever I connect to wi-fi getting "sprint hands free activation stupid window.. " I know how to remove it but it will again need root. I tried stump root before all this but that messed with file permissions & super su even did not able to unroot the device. Now I have again done all .tot thing but not gonna root ZVE..

Long story short will wait for towel root to work on ZVE !!! :cowboy:
[Sprint LG G2] rocket321:
If anyone uses the ZVE TOT file please let us know what your BSRtimer gets set to out of the box.

and huge thanks to [MENTION=2684188]autoprime[/MENTION] and the anonymous TOT sender! I'm very excited for the new custom recovery option too :D Lots of good stuff happening for the G2 right now!

BSR Timer specs for LS980ZVE

are the following in order from top to bottom on screen: NextLTE Scan 5, BSRTimer 3, BSRMaxtime(Stage) 1
[Sprint LG G2] mmaltba2326:
question i unistalled xspodesd and unrooted then took the ota it installed and i checked it and it was the zve then i did the stump root and rebooted and now it says its zvd again and i think i messed up by unrooting again now im getting a error E: failed to verify whole-file signature any ideas
[Sprint LG G2] InFiD3ViL:
See that is what I am finding weird.

Mine on ZVE is at BSRTimer 3, but My Gf's BSRTimer on ZVE is 3000. But mine was not originally displayed at 3. It was also 3000, but when I went to edit it it defaulted to 3.

I just hope ZVE is not bugged somehow.
[Sprint LG G2] rocket321:
On ZVD where the bug originated, tapping to edit the bsrtimer would change it from 3000 to 3, so it sounds like you have experienced the same behavior.

Did it list a filename in the error? Most likely you will need to use the tot method.
[Sprint LG G2] Droidilc:
My fone was rooted but i unrooted with supersu. Now doing after this whole thing do i hve to worry about bloatware (whatever it is). And will i hve to unlock gsm again.

[Sprint LG G2] kuduku:
ZVE SIM unlock works fine . I am using on Airtel .

My steps

TOT ZVC , update from adb to ZVD and ZVE . Root using stump and SIM unlock . No issues .

Only thing balance is TWRP without using autorec , on which prime is working :good:
[Sprint LG G2] Trident:
Been doing a lot of reading.

Can I just unroot it & apply the update, then root? Would be great, but It doesn't sound like It... I just want hear it directly.
[Sprint LG G2] rocket321:
If your phone is completely stock + rooted, then the answer is yes. If you've modified any system files, removed system apps, flashed mods, etc, then the answer is no - you would need to use tot file.

omadmclient.apk has unexpected contents

Hi

Was rooted but unrooted with supersu before any attempt.

Got ota update twice.

Tried to install normally , seemed to work but still in ZVD.

Tried "Alternate Directions to skip using ADB:

1. Must be rooted... stick OTA zip file in the /cache directory

2. Unroot completely (install SuperSu then use SuperSu settings for full unroot)

3. Power off and boot into stock recovery (vol down + power)

4. Select the Update from cache option... then select the update zip you placed in /cache"

Got the message " omadmclient.apk has unexpected contents"

Any idea to repair this apk will be welcomed!

Thanks

[Sprint LG G2] mistermidas:
After having ZVE for....two weeks basically. I honestly dont notice any major changes or improvements. I do stay on LTE slightly more now, but Im in Dallas, TX which was one of the 1st areas with Spark anyway. Honestly LTE was never a big issue for me. GPS on the other hand...O..M...G. But has anybody actually noticed anything major with ZVE yet, besides HAVING to use stump to root that is??
[Sprint LG G2] autoprime:
There was never anything major for ZVE. Breaking down the changelog:

Improvements to LTE attachment - Changed default BSR setting (this could have been done manually without ZVE update)

Enhancements to HD Voice - Speaks for itself.

Google security patch - Blocked Towelroot and ioroot which now only leaves Stump.

But now that we have the ZVE TOT it's the recommended version for those who do not want to run AOSP-type roms.

Anyone can now TOT to ZVE > Run Stump. Super easy.. and ZVE seems to be the best version out yet (up-to-date and no issues).

If there is a next update.. I'd assume it will block Stump. Unless there are new LG root tools.. it would be best not to take the update... or update manually. G3 users have to do the same thing now.. same applies to G2 users - http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/development/psa-stop-taking-ota-updates-update-t2909412

I am having problem in downloading Tot file which is of 2.3 GB and with connection of 4MB i could not download it in single shot and it even wont allow to resume.

Thanks in advance
[Sprint LG G2] ObviousMan:
I've read trough the thread and I am confusing myself - from never rooted ZVD - if you want to root with Stump -can you take ZVE OTA or you have to sideload ZVE?

Thanks.

[Sprint LG G2] rocket321:
You can take the OTA or sideload it, net result is exactly the same.
[Sprint LG G2] ObviousMan:
That is what I thought. Thanks.

I kept having issues downloading the tot file also. I would get about 233M to 653M before it broke. I grabbed "get" download manager and got it all.

For the record my bsrtimer settings haven't changed at all. And I'm completely stock. Not even root. LTE is spotty here around Nashville so I couldn't tell you if its made a difference or not. To be honest....sprints LTE coverage is piss poor
[Sprint LG G2] bradreeves94:
Hope ZVE isn't bugged also

Although actually my BSR Timer didn't change @ all from ZVD to ZVE????don't know. As for ZVE update, I live n East Tennessee near Knoxville. I am getting Spark LTE, where i used to not get any 3G services @ all..

for those of you having trouble after TOT then taking ota updates to zve do a factory reset, then root with stump dont install superSU right away use autorec first and flash twrp via autorec then update to 2.8.1 then flash away. didnt have to use dorimax on mine ran mahdi rom and now running liquid smooth no issue
[Sprint LG G2] Demonlinx:
So i see from the list of .tot files from the link on the first page that there are also folders for each updates partition such as ZVE_partition folder. Do I need these at all?

edit: Doing the tot to zve right now, I'll update with results in a minute.

edit: Everything worked fine. Loving ZVE, lets get some root now.

Anyone try survival mode in Supersu to preseve root?
[Sprint LG G2] Fnord12:
Why risk it? It's dead simple to root ZVE so there's no real point.

In other news: used the .tot file to wipe my phone and get everything updated Yesterday. Also rooted it and used Titanium Backup to restore a bunch of apps from the backup I made.

Still several kinds of annoyed at LG with their stupid update process. (ZVE from ZVD wouldn't take due to a file that went missing)
[Sprint LG G2] lurtis:
So if I'm rooted on zve already with no custom recovery I can autorec without issues? Or should I just wait until bump is working properly?
[Sprint LG G2] supasanch24:
Auto rec works just fine with ZVE
[Sprint LG G2] Demonlinx:
Confirm, I used autoRec and it worked flawlessly.
[Sprint LG G2] Fnord12:
Figured i'd get my two cents in, the whole issue with getting stuck on 3g appears to be fixed.

During my drive home it will go 3g but it'll eventually figure out it can go back to LTE on it's own where before it wouldn't.

Background info: I used the .tot to upgrade to ZVE.

Still somewhat miffed at the lack of wifi calling despite Sprint's repeated promises.

---------- Post added at 05:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:27 PM ----------

First thanks to autoprime for his wonderful job.

I am from India, my LG G2 is Sprint LS980 ZVC bought through ebay India. It was very easy to upgrade to ZVE. I downloaded ZVE tot & flashed with LG FlashTool & rooted with Stump without a single problem. Then used ysabxe to Sim Unlock & edited build.prop using jsergio123 method.

Now my LG G2 is working fine. So any body from India can use this method to upgrade to ZVE with Sim Unlocked. (I am using Airtel in Tamil Nadu).
[Sprint LG G2] diab10:
Hello, I'm a total newbie, but I managed to .tot ZVC and simunlock it with permanent sim unlock from ysabx thread, rooted currently with ioroot.

Since I havent really started to use the phone, and I have Knock On not working and only 2g data issues (GSM icon only and very bad speed) do i have to unroot the device before i .tot to ZVE? Can I just .tot ZVE and Stump root and use the sim unlocok from ysabx thread (carrier folder copy etc)?

And also I have other untouched LS980 thats currently on original ZVD. Can I just OTA it to ZVE since its untouched and then root and simunlock?

Thanx for your patience.
[Sprint LG G2] varunrs:
Hi,

I need a file from someone who is using this on Sprint on ZVE.

If you are rooted can you get the modem file for me. You'll have to do the following:

1) Enable USB debugging and connect your phone to the PC.

2) Run the following commands from the folder in which adb is present -

adb shell

su

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modem of=/sdcard/modem.img

Upload this modem.img file and share the link with me.

Thanks in advance.

[Sprint LG G2] secret.animal:
Are you using sprint network of another. With build prop changed for unlock to use on other network. You trying to tot will read the phone as something else not an ls980.

Probably not a good idea art work. You need to install drivers and software.

From stock ZVE installed stump--> reboot --> install superSu --> uninstall stump worked flawlessly, thank you everyone.

1. flashed kernel kk_kernel_ls980_jdi.zip, white lines gone but knock on not working, knock off working so so

2. Unable to restore knock on w/ hidden menu 5689#*980# (from SuperG2 thread) starts but has no "update touch firmware" option
