Dudes, count me in to test, I can't wait [emoji2]
[ONE General] fabi280:
Don't beg for testing!

There's actually nothing available to test right now.

Just wait until a developer asks for it - he probably won't find/read your posts here anyway.

A good thing needs some time.

The initial tests will be made by the dev himself normally as the first builds usually don't boot correctly and he just needs a kmsg log.

So please, stop spamming this thread with useless "count me in for testing" requests. This is just annoying for people that are subscribed to the thread. Thank you!

build error -help

I am trying ot build AOSP Lollipop

Can anyone help with the build errors
[ONE General] jgcaap:
Sharing the error fixes would be good idea... Ill start also Next week to play with this.
[ONE General] beastlykings:
Dude, you've been heard, relax.

The assumptions of begging, and the resulting lecture on how things "actually work", are not necessary.

Most of us here know how it works, and are probably, like me, just showing enthusiasm/appreciation for the work, and also marking this thread so it shows up in my recent topics so I can passively follow it for updates.

We're all good here ;)

I created this thread because of my excitement for Lollipop on our OPOs. Everyone can be excited about having it on there devices.

When we start asking for ETAs and getting frustrated is when an issue comes up. Everyone be excited! We all have a passion for this tech and show it in these forums. At the same time we all need to understand great things take time, which I believe we all do.
[ONE General] Renosh:
Just a couple guys said count me in. Don't see the big issue. If this thread was longer it would make sense. I swear some of you guys are control freaks. Let the devs decide if and who will test, nothing wrong with expressing interest cause you're excited
[ONE General] fabi280:
There would be more if you wouldn't say something. A dev would ask for testers anyway when he needs them, it's much easier than searching in long threads for a possible tester.

I'm not a moderator, if you want you can still continue asking to be a tester. I was just pleasing you because it's annoying to get subscription mails that just contain such posts.

I guess it's enough about this, let's get back to the topic please.
[ONE General] JMillion:
cant wait til a OTA comes out for lollipop
[ONE General] Renosh:
If you've ever participated in a popular thread you'd know what you claimed never works because people don't look at previous posts. I'm not interested in being a tester so don't put words in my mouth. That's why moderators exist cause posting to warn people to stop posting doesn't work. This thread was pretty chilled out until your post
[ONE General] beastlykings:
Anywho, hurray for Lollipop! Some people love material design, some people hate it, what are everyone's thoughts? Personally I'm ready for any change, good or bad, but I think this will be good ;)

Personally can't wait for 5.0 to be released. I love the look and I'm sure CM will redesign and add to their features as well as every other major custom ROM like Slim, PA and AOKP. It's gonna be a great couple months for Android enthusiasts

Good to see the other OEMs pushing lollipop out in the next week or so, puts OPO under pressure. If they can put out a decent release they'll get free positive marketing too

Imagine one Moto X 2014 upright.

If I press power button from top to middle I can power on and power off my Moto X easier. However if I press near bottom it hard to power on and power off (sometimes it worked cool and sometimes gets stuck, but only occurs at the bottom).

This happens with yours Moto X 2014? Is a defect?

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simonsickle:
Hello everyone. I'm going to share a way for you to control your CWM install over WiFi, sort-of. Do not ask for a pure WiFi implementation, I am more interested in other projects here that may or may not happen with the release of 5.0 sources and rbox's partial unlock.

Next, here is a list of things you'll need:

A WiFi router

A laptop or WiFi device

patience

time

Now that we have all of this, you will connect your gateway into your wireless router, in order to provide an internet connection. If you do not have a way to plug in your gateway, you may want to explore using DD-WRT and the router as a client-bridge (this will connect to your home's network, then turn the router into a switch). With this completed, reboot your Fire TV to the recovery. You will see that it has an IP on your sub-net (just like your laptop and phone). This is because the router is doing all of the work and connecting the devices, much like if the WiFi inside of the Fire TV was utilized.

All you must do now is type the following:

adb connect X.X.X.X

where the X's are replaced with the IP shown on the Fire TV's screen.

Now do as you please, you have your WiFi control. If you desire to donate, do so to [MENTION=3991724]rbox[/MENTION] He was the one who allowed you to do this stuff in the first place.

I was using a symbian phone before i switched to ppc, on the symbian keyboard, i can tab on G, move my finger to F and release, F will be typed instead of G

i cannot do this on the ppc and it's really fustrating as this wouldn't allow for 1 handed typing...

are there any keyboard apps out there that provide such functionality???

[Verizon LG G3] droidiac13:
I'm getting a message saying "Path is too long or file problem" when adding the kdz. Any ideas?
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
Sounds like your linking the file path instead of directly copying the file right into the folder. Also try checking the file md5 with this one for the 10b kdz file: d228ba692ef0c4704cba0b00fad8b8ce
[Verizon LG G3] droidiac13:
Don't Forget To Remove Previous LG FlashTool

When I first tried the method I was receiving a message "Path is too long or file problem". So I read through the instructions again. I failed to remove the previous LG FlashTool I was using. Once I uninstalled that program, everything went through without a problem. Thanks annoyingduck!!
[Verizon LG G3] kreep22:
I keep getting this and I installed all drivers. Any ideas? Thanks
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
Some basics to check first:

-Were you in download mode before executing the program?

-When you initialized download mode, did you wait to allow the download mode drivers to load before hitting start?

-Were all steps followed?

-Check cable, and try another one (this is very often the cause)

-Change usb port

-Don't use a 3.0 port, use a 2.0
[Verizon LG G3] gatorstew:
Thanks for this excellent guide, Duck. Very simple to follow, well laid out, etc. I haven't actually done it yet, but I've got everything in place to do so (the flash tool, the KDZ file in the folder, etc.)

I assume once the downgrade is successful, just reroot with Stump, etc and wait for updates via the community?

Will future updates be available via this flash tool, or will they have to be flashed via TWRP? Sorry, I'm just now getting used to the LG G3 dev community, coming from an old GNEX.

Thanks!
[Verizon LG G3] killian1212:
continued error when trying ota

I have a problem. I was originally rooted without a custom recovery. I decided to try the ota and got the error message when trying to install. I then flashed this method (kdz) and got back to stock. I rerooted via stump and tried the ota again, failure. I then rewiped and kdz again, this time I did not root. Tried the ota again, no dice. :confused:

Any thought? I can flash the kdz fine and get phone to factory 10b but once I try to install the ota I still get the error.
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
That's odd... You chose cse flash, not normal correct? Normal would not wipe your device and could definitely be the culprit for the ota failing. While cse mode is a complete wipe prior to flashing.
[Verizon LG G3] killian1212:
Correct. I did cse, full wipe. I dont know what's going on. I tried atleast 10 times from scratch. I still cant get the ota to install.
[Verizon LG G3] quadjacks:
After using the method here to downgrade back to 10b and root. I too wasn't able to then S/W update to 11c using survival mode in SuperSU. I perform the OP procedures again and this time didn't root and still wasn't able to S/W update, kept getting error. So I used ---> [GUIDE][HOW TO][VS985] Restore Verizon to Stock to go all the way back. I'm now able to S/W update to 11c and keep root with survival mode set in SuperSU. I most humbly say that there may be a very slight issue with maybe the files here. I truly do appreciate the ability to return to 10b using this method after updating in the first place!
[Verizon LG G3] killian1212:
Thanks, ill try the other method and report back. wish me luck. Either way, a huge thanks to duck for the easy way to rerturn. I just wish kdz worked for future ota. It may be a file issue allowing us to revert to 10b but not then allowing future updates.
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
Use the kdz method then factory reset the device and see if that works.
[Verizon LG G3] killian1212:
I tried that. No dice.
[Verizon LG G3] quadjacks:
I tried that as well.
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
Sorry, I missed this question. Yes, any future kdz's that become available will be updated here, along with any changes in flashing methods. Though it's pretty hard to beat the current tool that's available.

And yes, the idea here is to downgrade to 10b and be able to root, unlock, and flash anything you want. Still unclear as to why some want to take the 11c ota, but that's for another thread. The kdz method here is working where the tot was failing for some, and I personally think it's faster and easier to do than the tot method.
[Verizon LG G3] markfm:
The third step might be clarified. Do you mean something like, "Power off your phone completely, then turn power on while also holding the volume up button..."?
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
You should probably try it before trying to correct it.....:rolleyes:

Nope, power off phone completely, hold volume up ONLY, plug in usb cable...it will auto power on into download mode
[Verizon LG G3] pacedrum69:
quick question....im on VS98512B...... i have downloaded 10b and the flash tool.....all i need to do is this....and i will be back to stock that i can root ???

-Extract the .zip folder to wherever you wish to keep it (desktop, downloads, etc).

-Copy the 10b KDZ file (or whatever KDZ your flashing) into the LG Flash Tool folder

-Power off your phone completely, hold volume up, plug in the usb cable, wait for any drivers to load, and you should then be in Download Mode

-Run LGFlashTool2014.exe (you may need to run as administer as its not an installed program, rather an executed one from wherever you saved the folder).

-You may need to install Visual C++ Runtime Library. If so, refer to the LG Flash Tool thread for more info on obtaining that.

-Select CDMA as your type

-Select Diag as your phone mode

-Select your KDZ file that you copied or pasted into the folder

-Choose the option of CSE Flash (this is a full wipe, you will lose your data). Do not choose Normal Flash when performing a downgrade, nothing good will come from doing that!! Another screen will open, just leave everything the way it is.

-Click the Start button and yet another window will appear showing a language selection screen. Just leave everything the way it is as Korean and hit OK. Don't worry, the tool is already set to flash in English.

-Wait until the Flash is done 100% and unplug/reboot... and that's it - now enjoy your corrected mistake and stop taking OTA's!!!

So under other devices it's showing CDC Serial and also LGE Android phone with a yellow explanation point. Also under portable devices it's showing LGE Android MTP device. Yes drivers are installed on Windows 7 and I pointed each to the driver location folder and it doesn't find the drivers. Any ideas? Really need to downgrade so I can root
[Verizon LG G3] markfm:
Did you remove any other existing drivers on your PC? Driver conflicts are pretty common.

Also, check around post 157 in this thread, annoying duck mentions the right sequence to plug things in.

can this be installed on windows 8? im not having much luck since i got my new computer? thanks in advance for any feed back. :)
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
Yes. Working perfectly on 8/8.1. The 10 preview? - not so sure there
[Verizon LG G3] Jimjk1968:
not sure why i can't find the lg flash tool folder but maybe thats the reason
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
It's the file you downloaded. Should be in downloads (or wherever you saved it to if using Chrome). It's not an installed program/system file.
[Verizon LG G3] todd3835:
While this is a small thread and I always advocate reading of an entire thread (which I did), I might suggest posting this link in the OP. The main download link refused to download for me after 5 attempts (one time I managed to get a 32kb file). Completely appreciate the files and your work though. I'll be getting my G3 on Friday!

Hello user,

Use LongPathTool for your "the file path is too long" error..

Just curious to see if after doing this downgrading process and rooting, are you guy staying on 10 or upgrading to 11 or 12?

Thanks in advanced
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
Most are flashing the 12b radio and whatever rom they choose. But no on updating, all are flashing or manually upgrading incremental "official" updates. If your looking to take OTA's you'll need to use the tot method. This method is the go to for rom flashers...

need help

keep getting error saying the phone has been disconnect and it gives me an option to retry or exit, i'v tried all my usb ports nothing works please help.
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
Most likely a driver issue. Reinstall the drivers, you can do that by clicking the driver exe and choose the remove and reinstall option.

I think you answered your own question though...so maybe that's why nobody replied? :)

But yeah, if you flash back to 10b you'll be able to root with stump root and then get your recovery and flashing going. I hope that answer helps ;)
[Verizon LG G3] pacedrum69:
Thank you
[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
Ate you 100% sure no other lg flash tools are installed? That will happen if the real one is installed. This tool is offline, no server connection needed.
[Verizon LG G3] tpayne2345:
I was having the same problems with disconnecting/server errors and this is how I fixed it, maybe it will help someone:

- Uninstall all LG drivers, reboot PC

- Installed the LGUnitedMobileDriver Ver 3.11.3 and then installed the LG_VZW_United v2.18.0 drivers

- Put phone in download mode, connect via usb and let Windows configure the drivers until they say complete/done

- Go to Device Manager and make sure COM/Port is set to COM41 (If COM3 right click, get to advanced under Ports, select COM41 from dropdown)

- Run LG Flash Tool 2014 as admin

- Use instructions from OP, except I changed the language from Korean to English

- I

still

get the server error but don't click anything, just let it sit there.

- Phone shows COM41 and starts updating, progress bar gets to 100%, restarts

- I'm on 10b now

Well this solved my network issues I had, along with Titanium Vs bloatware. Thanks! Do we have KDZ files for 11b or c or 12b etc to upgrade? If not what do I do,to upgrade this version that doesn't do ota?

[Verizon LG G3] annoyingduck:
Ok guys, again I'm not a windows expert, but I just tested for myself again and I'm not having any of the issues that are being reported. I have windows 7, all drivers installed, verified download mode working prior to running the tool, and everything just worked. I also do not have ANY other lg flash tools installed. I have NOT personally tested this on 12b out of the box either, but others have and verified it to work. And again, I only leave my prized Linux Mint and boot Windows for tools like these, so I'd be asking the same questions you are asking if I were experiencing the errors reported...

If anyone else can chime in on the errors that several users are experiencing that would be appreciated.
[Verizon LG G3] stewbuntu:
No errors for me using windows 8.1 ( hate W8.1 and I set up Lubuntu on dual boot after just two days on new Windows, but I agree with others windows is good for this stuff), using the drivers directly from LG (newest), and using my new LG usb. I will say that it took forever for me to load into "download mode" or whatever you guys called it; I hit volume down and power and it booted to that mode and downloaded some file that took forever and I assume was from LG, all before I ran the flash tool! Which is easily noticeable and different from this file my phone downloaded because on your phone's screen it will have all the cool graphics made out of text with the flash tool. It seems like it stalled for 20 minutes at initial download boot, but in the past I have always messed something up when I did't just wait so I watched a TV show or something.

---------- Post added at 06:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:01 AM ----------

I now have TWRP installed and I'm backed up, so I'm just waiting to hear what's the best non OTA stock image/ROM/kdz file or files. I think we need to add the master list of links to this original post as a "what to do next." I say this bc many people will be in my situation coming from phones with more support, and I don't want to just "willy nilly" load ROMs and would prefer a more stock setup.

Oh, I'm so excited - ARU with apparadio3 worked 10 times better than my note 2 ever did on this 10B atleast which is the only one I have tried so far, but I digress.

UPDATE: For noobs or if you are curious bc you ahve not flashed before, but have used TWRP, here is an update - I got root via one of the options on the main general page (ioroot originally, now something else maybe STUMP via the "brute force" option I think it was) installed TWRP manager, installed TWRP, downloaded 12B system, wiped, and installed this 12B no issues no GAPPS needed ( I didn't use the boot or modem image, just used system zip/rar file: http://xdaforums.com/verizon-lg-g3/general/reference-stock-img-files-t2966958

UPDATE 2 days later: I was out of town and used my dad's windows 7 no problems flashing back after I screwed up and did an OTA update. I thought it was just a camera upgrade to the system as it stated and, boom I'm in a TWRP boot loop. I did a TWRP back up prior, but the bootloader or something must have gotten locked bc I could not wipe and install my TWRP backup. So followed directions, flashed with this again, root, TWRP, then flashed my 12B TWRP backup file save on external SD and I'm back in business. :D

After this trip I now have the flash tool & 10b file for emergencies, newest drivers exe, 10b and 12b TWRP backups on the external SD. Was a pain to find/download everything at my parents house when visiting.

side note:

I have to say I love LG's software much better than touch wiz and even vs a lot of the ROMS, stable, no crashes yet, no widgets (calendar) freezing like touchwiz, my z-wave's responsiveness to commands is fast, Camera has a gallery link in the app after you take a picture unlike Cyanogenmod, messaging app could use a back button vs having to use the system pop up key to go to the main screen with everyone's threads. I really do miss hard keys though (home, back, menu) especially while in the camera app, or other apps where you need to quickly go home but have to swipe around to get the keys to pop up. I bought the Note 2 vs the nexus back then bc it had hard keys, knew how it would suck without, and now still miss them. and the hard key on the back makes it inconvenient to close your screen quickly so I added an auto screen off when turned over or in the pocket. For example I may want to stay on a webpage or in my google Keep notes while at Home Depot, but turn the screen off to save battery, and have easy access to look at the list again- options are to fumble for the button on the back which is easier one handed, but two handed means your fingers don't rest near the button, or an app to auto turn off the screen. It sucks there is no knock available while in an app. It's annoying like missing things in a ROM that keep you searching for that perfect ROM.
