[Verizon LG G3] autoprime:
your post is hard to follow... are you saying ADB works when set in PTP? Maybe I'm misunderstanding.

If ADB does work, that means everyone ran around saying Verizon sucks and is ruining the G3 before trying PTP mode? :good:

And no, there's no ADB root script for now. If there was then everyone with ADB would have root and we wouldn't need to worry about updates or ioroot/Stump being patched. 10C blocks all known exploits as far as I know but I've haven't seen anyone report everything.. maybe I missed it.

If someone wants to send me a VS985 I'd be happy to jump on the team... would help if anti-rollback comes. Anyway.. since I has no VS985..

someone that's unrooted on VS985 10C..

has both ioroot and stump been tried? if so, it's a wrap for root unless already rooted on 10B.. or downgrading to 10B then rooting.

Which brings us to the next thing... downgrading. So far I'm only seeing [MENTION=5795678]deathsquad737[/MENTION] report the issue to me directly about LG Flash not working for downgrade. Has anyone else tried this? After LG Flash does its CRC check it will then say "Ready".. at that point you would unplug that phone (that's already in download mode).. wait a few seconds then plug it back in... as long as the LG Serial port is set to COM41(under "Ports" in Windows Device Manager) then LG Flash should begin flashing the TOT in 10 seconds or less.

since I has no VS985..

someone that's rooted on VS985 10C..

I need someone that's still rooted on 10C to dump some partitions for me.. then zip em up and upload em somewhere. I need aboot, sbl1 and boot.

Use Terminal Emulator to enter the commands below.. you'll end up with 3 .img files on your internal SD card:

su
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot of=/sdcard/aboot-auto.img
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/sbl1 of=/sdcard/sbl1-auto.img
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot of=/sdcard/boot-auto.img

If you do not have root on 10C.. find someone that does and get them to do it. Let's go people :p

funny how there was 158 post in 2 days, but when [MENTION=2684188]autoprime[/MENTION] asks for some files to see if the situation can be resolved, it gets so quiet you could hear a church mouse fart.

i understand some arent in the correct position to help, like myself, but some are. how about you guys take 10 minutes to give a little back. autoprime doesn't even have the 985, yet he is going out of his way to try and help us.

pretty sad that he had to ask more than once for these files, after all he has done for us....

thanks for trying to help, you were posting while i was typing lol

are you not able to pull the files he wants to look at? just wondering

edit, i see your not rooted, disregard the files comment.

I have root on 11c using supersu survival mode. Anyone tried bump?
[Verizon LG G3] bweN diorD:
autoprime needs some files pulled from someone in your exact position. are you not willing to help out?

if he had the files from his post below, he could look into weather its safe to try and bump.

[MENTION=2684188]autoprime[/MENTION] one more I don't know if it is relevant but when I brute force on stump v 1.2 it says sorry device patched when I ran the earlier version it runs it didn't get anything and I stopped after 10 min but no device patched or not supported message?

im betting thats normal. a check to see if the exploitable code was there before proceeding, probably wasnt in stump before the last version.
[Verizon LG G3] dmoney98:
Months ago i rooted G3 using Ioroot, i updated build.prop, installed xposed framework and some modules, and changed a system file (SDFix). 2 days ago i try to updated OTA, and i t failed., i unintalled xposed, changed build.prop back to what it was, reapplied a system file and checked on survivor mode in SU. still OTA failed. I eventually lgflashtool back to stock, rooted using stump root (bruteforce), checked on survivor mode inn SU. took the OTA and it worked and i am still rooted.
[Verizon LG G3] willyjay:
I would LOVE to help....but now i'm on 11C without root so I can't pull the needed files (unless there's another way). I just wanted to post that the device no longer shows under ports in device manager, so I cannot select COM41, which is why I believe flash tool is failing.....and no ethernet option to get ADB working.

If there's any other way for me to help, I'm willing to try!

---------- Post added at 05:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:58 PM ----------

Being on 11C with root, could you possibly pull the files autoprime is asking for?
[Verizon LG G3] bweN diorD:
its understandable that there are many willing to help but cant, like you and me.

although, there are others who can help, like the guy who posted right before you, and arent.

not sure the point of his post, other than to point out he is in the position needed to help, but isnt.

thanks though

if im persistent enough, someone will post the files.

---------- Post added at 06:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ----------

getting to 11c with root is nice, but if you cant downgrade, and bump no longer works, whats the point?

how about pulling the files for autoprime, so he can look into the issues the ota created?
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
What we need is a kdz file to try. I'm still puzzled as to why the tot is failing. I'm still on 10b and really want to "upgrade" to play around with this, but I'm not going to do that [emoji12].

In the past on my other lg devices, I've had the flash tool hang while working (while in dl mode), and a simple unplug & plug back in would kick it back into action - despite the warnings of "do not unplug"...

ok, i have read through every post in this thread and those mentioned above have said they are on 11c and rooted. if i have mentioned you in error, please disregard.

you guys are in a position to help us by providing some files to [MENTION=2684188]autoprime[/MENTION] in his post here.

please help everyone out by providing these files for [MENTION=2684188]autoprime[/MENTION] to look into the changes the ota made to them.

there is no personal data, or identifying information contained in these partitions, so no worries on that end.

[MENTION=2684188]autoprime[/MENTION]

to answer some of your other questions, after reading every post.

it has been stated several times throughout the thread, that the various root methods were tried, and failed.

the following post/posters have claimed to downgrade from the new ota, with little detail other than mentioned below.

maybe they can provide some further detail to help out others also.

( [MENTION=5795678]deathsquad737[/MENTION] there is one trick mentioned below you may want to try, if you havent already.)

post claiming to have downgraded:

this poster claims, swiching to art, then back to dalvic, he was able to downgrade.

this poster also claims to have downgraded, but didnt provide any details.

to anyone else reading this post in a position to provide even the slightest detail pertaining to this.

please remember all the hard work team Codefire and others have put into the development of this device, and give a little back to the community, for the benefit of all of us.

Thanks for reading, and thanks in advance to those who help out.

FYI: I am rooted with the 11C update
[Verizon LG G3] autoprime:
hey thanks! someone finally came through. :highfive:

well.. after looking at these files.. it does look like they have added anti-rollback into the bootloader.

I called this before OTA was even pushed out.

I now need a VS985 to work on to see how to fix this. Anyone have parts layin around? maybe between all the parts we have a full functioning phone? Seriously someone get me a VS985 :)

[Verizon LG G3] netookska05:
I was the one able to downgrade from the 11c update. Once the update installed the phone rebooted wiped the internal SD external SD was left alone. I immediately went to the flash tool to reflash the tot file. I could not connect via adb only mtp and ptp was available under storage no ethernet selection. I was able to enable USB debugging but once I connected the phone the driver would install but was unable to change the port to 41 connect to the flash tool. I tried numerous times different drivers. I said well let's see how art works under this new update. I ran it for a couple of hours and I could see a downgrade in performance so I switched back to dalvik. The next day I just gave it another try and I freaked once stump actually started working instead of saying I was patched. So now I am rooted again and have blocked the ota.

[Verizon LG G3] ItzMeJoey:
So I've read most of these 19 pages and what I'm getting is that if you're rooted, and perhaps maybe installed Xposed but not changed anything else, you should be ok applying the OTA as long as you enable Survival Mode in SuperSU? Can anyone confirm that this is the case?
[Verizon LG G3] 318sugarhill:
Um..... No. Stay clear of the OTA. Give it more than a day. Just relax. There is nothing in the update worth the rush.
[Verizon LG G3] acparker18:
No no no no no, you didn't read anything did you? Not to be mean but come on people this is getting ridiculous. DON'T TAKE ANY OTA UPDATES PERIOD AT ALL WHATSOEVER! We have been warned numerous times that anti-rollback is coming soon and there are entire threads dedicated to telling you how NOT to take OTAs. What is this obsession with people taking OTA updates once their phone is unlocked? You Bump'd your phone. The whole point of that seems to be to get custom roms going on your device and avoiding any more official software updates. Just chill out and don't take any freaking updates. I know I sound harsh but my god I'm sick of seeing this question everywhere. People should do a little more research before asking questions that have already been answering so many times it's not even funny. Anyone doing this kind of work on their phone should also have done enough research beforehand to know that it's never a good idea to take an OTA update on any phone that had to be unlocked through some backdoor method instead of simply using fastboot oem-unlock.

Once again, I know I'm a little mean, but do some research and stop trying to take OTA updates. I can only imagine how many messages [MENTION=2684188]autoprime[/MENTION] and [MENTION=1157052]thecubed[/MENTION] are gonna get from people claiming that they bricked their device when people start taking anti-rollback OTAs. Poor guys. So let's cut them some slack and let's all learn to take care of ourselves a little bit by not bricking our own devices by doing something incredibly stupid.
[Verizon LG G3] Cruiserdude:
[MENTION=2684188]autoprime[/MENTION], Thank you so much for sticking with us through this madness without pulling your hair out, if this wasn't my main phone I'd send you mine to work on. Hopefully we are able to work something out soon.

[MENTION=4502242]IndianaBond[/MENTION] Thanks for paying attention and getting autoprime what he needed, it was getting real stressful there for a minute with everyone saying they were rooted on 11c yet completely ignoring him. Much appreciated.

[MENTION=5094222]netookska05[/MENTION], So at what point in this process did you successfully downgrade, and what specific steps did you use to do it? I see where you said Stump Root worked, was this on the new OTA, or after you successfully downgraded? Thanks for posting that information, hopefully with some more detail we can find a repeatable process to help folks out.

For everyone else, let's try and be patient, and help out where we can. If you took the OTA, you should have known the risk you were taking, so no reason to complain or get impatient now. Just hang tight, let the pros do their work, and pay attention to ways you can help them find what they need. Hopefully they'll get this all figured out, though there's no guarantee. At least it serves as a lesson for the future.

For those NOT on the OTA, let's just hang tight and see if a downgrade or new path to the bump exploit are found or not before you take it. I see people still discussing it in this same thread, so I sincerely hope those folks are okay with losing root and a bootloader unlock.

If you're ready for something other than 10b, there are at least 2 roms based off of 10m from the international version that are confirmed to work on our phones. I'm running Cloudy and its MUCH better as far as perceived performance, smoothness, and heat output, and a little better battery as well. Give that a shot, or wait until safe 11c roms are made.

Again folks, BE SMART and BE PATIENT.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] TacticalMissions:
Hey everyone! I've noticed a lot of posts about people having a hard time using the fingerprint scanner so I figured I'd put together a quick video on how to make the fingerprint scanner up to 6 times more accurate. I've done this and I never have issues with using it anymore. Being XDA forums I'm sure a lot of you are already familiar with this method, but I can see that there are still many who don't know it yet. I hope this helps!

[Galaxy Note 4 General] TacticalMissions:
Are you sure? When I click the video it starts playing the fingerprint scanner tutorial. What video do you see when you click it? I'm wondering if the link included the playlist and it somehow skipped the first video for you.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Tom-Helge:
I already made a post about the fingerprint scanner earlier.

You can see the topic here: http://xdaforums.com/note-4/general/to-fingerprint-scanner-bad-inaccurate-t2919453

And also, it's better to register the fingerprints with different angles on one finger, because it's not always that you are going to hold the phone exactly the same each time you takes up the phone in your hands.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] jaca_76:
On second link it's is OK. I'm setup and looks good. I will try more tomorrow. Thx.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Magnesus:

Try testing the fingerprint hardware *#0*# Senor > 2nd from bottom FingerPrint test> NormalScan.

All Test should result in a PASS or maybe your hardware is faulty.

*You have to scan your finger immediately when you see Ready
[Galaxy Note 4 General] samep:
I've tried both methods. The video in this thread was viewable yesterday but not today. But anyway, I set the thumb with the angled swipe like holding single handed but it's actually two handed. As the video suggested for thumb swiping, I focused on part of the thumb each sweep using the thumbnail and button as a reference. Then setup another thumb print using the fleshiest part of the thumb. The index finger seemed to be most accurate with the vertical sweep but now thumb is just as accurate using the method suggested here. There is another sensor test where you can swipe to see readings of your scanner with programmed fingerprints (dial *#0*# then scan button is middle of third row, scroll down to Fingerprint test/Normalscan). Seems I have to hit back 3x to actually back or exit the test mode.

I think over time, a better method will be learned. Seems you have to train your brain for the most consistent swipe but sometimes the first swipe just cleans the scanner or I'm just scanning too quickly when prompted. Maybe both apply? Seems fairly accurate but I've disposed of a lot of scans and programmed new ones with trial and error. FWIW, for me, the thumb works best with the angled sweep. That may change.

I wonder if the reverse direction sweep is method to test each fingerprint saved? If fails, try to program until works.

They don't (unless you've been arrested), but please tell me how you believe they do. Expecially governments and agency's other countries.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Joey121215:
Yeah, you're right, that's the only time they take your fingerprints. They never do prints when people are born or at the DMV or at theme parks or a hundred different other points in your life. I'm pretty sure I even had to do them at school once. If the government or a corporation wanted your fingerprints, they wouldn't need a phone to get them. Honestly, how paranoid are you? What the hell do you think they're even going to do with your fingerprints? Unless you've committed a crime, what are you afraid of? Them unlocking your phone?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ciscostud:
I am right, like I stated from your first reply. The government does not already have your fingerprints. My 'foot' was printed when born never at a DMV or Disneyland.

Point being...If you thinking the US government aleady has detailed database already of every USA citizen you're wrong.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] ECrispy:
I doesn't really matter. A scanner that reads a stripe at a time is never going to be as precise as TouchId which takes a photo and doesn't depend on motion. I've tried 'training' my Note 4 sensor many times and it never works reliably, and in the end its just frustrating.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Ce:
All tests results on my Note 4 are "pass". Setting up the fingerprint is no problem at all, almost 100% of the fingerprints are registered the first time. Used different directions and angles, one thumb 6x. But when it comes to actually using the fingerprintscanner it's terrible. Sometimes one swipe is enough to unlock the device. Most of the time (appr. 8/9 out of 10 times) I need two or more (up to 5/6) swipes. For me absolutely useless. The fingerprintscanner was one of the reasons I bought the note 4 but i've switched of the use of this scanner.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] AnisKhan:
Agree, not an Apple fan boy but had a iPhone 6 plus for a while. That fingerprint unlock was amazing. So easy. I'm going to use a pin again.

My scanner works just fine, I dunno why so many people are having issues with it. I get some mis-reads when I swipe it wonky but it works beautifully 99% of the time. Its one of the biggest reasons I bought this phone.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] magichoward:
I'm hoping it improves on the next update.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] jairusz:
It works whether I swipe up or down the scanner and I rarely have to swipe more than once. I really hope Samsung is able to fix this for everyone who are having problems because I'm enjoying the heck out of this feature.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] xxaarraa:
Yes, agree with this. Its working reliably for me as well - I'd say over 90% of the time. Haven't had to type in a password in a long time and it's a really nice feature.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gabi11:
Swiping up doesn't work good for me.

Swiping down was working well, until I bought a case with a small lip for protecting the screen....

My finger always touches the lip and the swipe doesn't go very well...
