I pray it fixes the bluetooth. I have a Chrysler U Connect system and my G3 or a G3 Vigor for my girlfriend will not stay paired to the unit.
[Sprint LG G3] Skid71:
After unzipping the system.img zip, it's named "14-system.img".

I plan on using the "flash2" process of upgrading.

Do I need to rename "14-system.img" to just "system.img" for the flash2 procedure to work?

Thank you

EDIT: I went back and re-read Auto's manual update procedure and can confirm, yes, I do need to rename "14-system.img" to "system.img"
[Sprint LG G3] Warboy:
The files are in the internal SDcard under "/sdcard/flash2/*.img" * being there respected names

here is the link to the recovery.log

http://pastebin.com/AE7y7KAH
[Sprint LG G3] autoprime:
thanks for log. odd, the only error in the log is that it doesn't see the system.img file and then aborts.

for whatever reason it's checking /sdcard/flash2/ and not finding the file. Not sure where to go from here. Logs would suggest that the file name is incorrect or folder name is wrong. But you've said they are correct.. so.. idk.

To debug this further.. can you connect to adb shell while in TWRP? And paste the output from the following commands?

adb shell
cd /sdcard/flash2/
ls

I'm officially stumped :confused:

everything looks right. just not meant to be on your device I guess.

I'm reaching here.. but maybe there's some issue if you used MTP? Versus using ADB push to put the image on your phone?

Have you noticed if the modem or boot image has updated (those would be fast flashes) and just system is not working? or all 3 not working? You'd have to check the software settings under About Phone to see if baseband(modem) or kernel changed.

you could always use the dd command to try and flash the image while in TWRP..

adb shell
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system
dd if=/sdcard/flash2/system.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system

The 2 dd commands should take a minute or three to complete.

Or just wait for engine95's stock rooted ZV6 rom.

Should it be Flash2 not flash2

[Sprint LG G3] Warboy:
I wiped and used the ZV4, rerooted, and installed TWRP. Then somehow that did it, I was able to use the flash2 zips in TWRP fine for some reason. But I noticed in ZV6 I don't have wifi calling.
[Sprint LG G3] ouroborus2012:
running this joker as is, nothing fancy and WOW, i actually like my phone again....I was literally on the verge of dumping this joker because I was sick of the lag etc.... This update has SIGNIFICANTLY improved performance.. Thanks!
[Sprint LG G3] autoprime:
odd. is this still an issues? if no, what fixed it? if so..when you wiped did you perhaps wipe data at all.. or only system/boot/modem? perhaps there is a chance the the wifi calling feature is something that gets downloaded after activation.. but if phone is wiped and phone is already activated there are sometimes issues with the Sprint "bloat" not being downloaded again. Sometimes a sign of this is having the LG boot animation instead of the Sprint animation. To be honest I'm not sure if the Wifi Calling is part of that bloat download... and I'm not even sure you wiped data so I could be off completely.. but just a thought.

other options would be.. trying to reactivate the phone: ##72786# (NOT ##786.. don't do that if you don't have to). This will only wipe your activated information(phone number and data profiles) then reboot your phone.. on boot up your phone will reactivate.. perhaps that can eventually lead to something kicking in and enabling the extra Sprint stuffs. OR you could just flash the ZV6 TOT and start off fresh.. which I can only assume would mean everything working perfectly again. TOT will wipe internal SDcard so you'll have to backup anything on it if you need it saved.

Moving on... it looks like Android Police has an article on the new Sprint Flex and G3 updates which are set to start rolling out on Monday. So we got the update that early... pretty good! You can see that article here- http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/1...i-fi-calling-starting-on-monday-december-1st/

We finally can see what Sprint has listed in the changelog:

Google Security Patches

Qualcomm Security Patch

International Voice over WI-FI

Improve unlock algorithm when phone is in the pocket

Enhancements to the LG Home (Sluggish UI fix)

Enhancement to the compass application

Enhancement to the Auxiliary cable recognition.

Mobilize Device Content Caching - An application caches HTTP web and app data on the device (not the Network), making the retrieval of data faster and saving bandwidth on the network
[Sprint LG G3] garwynn:
YES! The one thing I desperately needed in there is finally confirmed! Can today get any better?
[Sprint LG G3] Warboy:
If you could find us a Lollipop leak for our G3 :P

It seems once the system accepts the Sprint bloatware, It won't allow flash2 to work correctly and detect the images in flash2 folder.

So I had to TOT ZV4, root, recovery flash, use FLASH2, then do ##RTN# if I did ##RTN# on ZV4. It will produce the error code I showed. It's pretty strange.

MTP is broken in recovery. I also noticed that lol.
[Sprint LG G3] FrankBooth86:
Flashed manually and everything looks kosher, even though I use Solo Launcher it feels just a bit snappier.

Thank you Autoprime for the precise instructions, very easy to do.
[Sprint LG G3] burner50:
I was rooted with stumo and installed the OTA...

Is it still possible to roll back?
[Sprint LG G3] srthimsen:
The only way I know of would be to TOT back to ZV4, but that obviously means losing your current setup...
[Sprint LG G3] JDinAZ74:
I followed your guide and flashed using the flash2 zips. Like warboy, the flash went really really fast and I dont think it really flashed as when I check in about phone my build and software still have zv4 at the end. Everything else seems unchanged.
[Sprint LG G3] FrankBooth86:
I had the same issue, when I downloaded the system.img it had a bit of extra characters in the name (14-system.img) or something, I renamed it to just system.img and flash it that way. It worked just fine, system flash took a bit, I had stuck the flash2 files in the same folder with the img files as well.
[Sprint LG G3] JDinAZ74:
Yes, I made sure I renamed the file first. I'm not sure at this point why It didn't take.

Finally got it to work. I had placed the files on my external SD card instead of the internal one. I can tell a pretty substantial difference in the performance of my phone now. Any lag I was experiencing due to the ui is gone. Great update.
[Sprint LG G3] lordnykon21:
How do I install the zip if I'm not rooted? I'm new to the G3.
[Sprint LG G3] burner50:
Rolled back, then used TWRP and flash2 to upgrade successfully.

Thanks for the thread.
[Sprint LG G3] FrankBooth86:
Glad you had that sorted, strange issue.

Don't know if I was missing it or something, but I never noticed the drag to launch camera icon on the lock screen (Right hand corner)

Is that new?
[Sprint LG G3] shamrock505:
Damn-where's the ota zip? I know, give it time-lol
[Sprint LG G3] autoprime:
blame everyone who's received the OTA notification and not ran a logcat to grab the URL. Hopefully someone will step up. :fingers-crossed: :good:
[Sprint LG G3] shamrock505:
My thoughts exactly!
[Sprint LG G3] scottspa74:
I got a notification about update. I can't find where it downloads to. I finally just rooted last night. Still on zv4. Anything I can do to help? Is this the updAte you want to log the url for
[Sprint LG G3] engine95:
Huge THANKS to [MENTION=4047634]FerretPD[/MENTION] for this!!!! Thank him HERE

Here is the OTA for ZV6. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95832962473396371

There is NO ROOT for this yet. This is the ORIGINAL ZV6 update from Sprint.

Disclaimer: YOU WILL LOSE ROOT AND TWRP/UNLOCK, AND I AM NOT RESPOSIBLE IF YOU FLASH THIS!!!!!
[Sprint LG G3] lordnykon21:
How do install the ota manually? I'm not rooted.
[Sprint LG G3] engine95:
So no root/unlock?

I cant remember how stock recovery is, but I think copy the file to int sd, then boot into recovery and install from there. I think.
[Sprint LG G3] lordnykon21:
I thought it was done that way, is there a way to verify that this will work? I don't want to brick the phone.
[Sprint LG G3] engine95:
There are options in stock recovery, that being one of them. I think Normally it installs from /cache. But without root you can't write to it.

It should install because it's signed from LG/Sprint.

You'd have to look at the options in stock recovery to know for sure.
[Sprint LG G3] shamrock505:
I've updated ota zip in the past by moving zip to sd card and installing from the external sd card option in recovery - this time I'm being told the sd card cannot be mounted and invalid argument - any ideas?
[Sprint LG G3] engine95:
Internal SD. It should mount.
[Sprint LG G3] shamrock505:
I'm an old fart still learning so your help is greatly appreciated - after downloading on my g3 do I move the file? I've tried straight from download and external sd card with same issue - tia
[Sprint LG G3] engine95:
Just to be sure, you do realize there is no root for this yet. Right? Which means you're stuck with stock until root is found. And, your bootloader will be locked. So no flashing of anything.

If that's the case, then move it to root of Internal SD. Then it should find it.

Make sure to check the md5sum also to make sure you have a good DL.

It should work, but as I said, I haven't done this with stock recovery yet. Just so you know.

You can also just flash one of the ZV6 Rom's in Development. That way you keep root/unlock.
[Sprint LG G3] shamrock505:
Not worried about root-thank you
[Sprint LG G3] scottspa74:
I'm new to LG and trying to wrap my head around the differences from HTC. (8 year HTC user). For those asking about flashing update via stock recovery,...I know on HTCs, if you have an update firmware that is an img file, you would .make sure it's named properly (PJ75IMG for example) and boot into bootloader, and bootloader would check file for a signature and if good, bootloader flashes it. Is there no similar function on LG?

Come to think of it, I haven't even seen the bootloader on this device. Anyone here familiar with HTC and could help me relate?
[Sprint LG G3] shamrock505:
I've come from Samsung & all I had to do was download ota zip, move to sd and install in recovery - all from the phone, no computer needed-no luck with the g3-I'm prolly just gonna wait - lol
[Sprint LG G3] foxsdaddy67:
changes?

is there any kind of change log on this? from v4 to v6?

[Sprint LG G3] foxsdaddy67:
doh! thanks :o
[Sprint LG G3] autoprime:
OP updated with OTA update zip (official OTA link direct from google servers) and directions on how to install it.

I only suggest running this OTA zip if you are a stock user (or stock rooted) with stock recovery installed and have no plans to do more than root the phone at most.

I'd suggest rooting ZV4 and installing TWRP if you wanna maintain an "open" device that can flash anything at any time.
[Sprint LG G3] Sokesleezy:
I take it I didn't receive the ota notification because im rooted? Is that typical, this is my first rooted phone.
[Sprint LG G3] dk2463:
so question: If I had a rooted ZV4 stock system then loaded Bump TWRP then loaded the boot/system/modem files from ZV6 separately and now want to run the whole ZV6 update to get all the files updated, can I safely do this after making a backup and not lose any data?

thanks!
[Sprint LG G3] mistermidas:
Has anybody stock rooted, took the ota update yet for zv6 and kept root? Or if they were rooted, and lost root after update, can you please confirm either way? Id rather just take the ota since all Im concerned with is having root and not custom recovery or kernel.
[Sprint LG G3] jonpenton:
I'm having a near-identical issue. I placed the proper zips in root storage of internal sd card, ensured proper naming of all files and folders, made backups (thank goodness for Nandroid), did the wipes, flashed the proper zips. When I flashed the Flash2System.zip first it said unable to mount

'/system/' despite saying "Success!", and if I attempt to flash the modem and boot zips it replicates identical responses. However, if I flash the boot zip first, all is well, flash the modem zip next, all is well, flash the system zip and boom, unable to mount system, no OS installed. Time to restore, reboot, and research. Fingers crossed hoping we can figure this out. Shall I provide a TWRP log?

---------- Post added at 06:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:43 PM ----------

I'm rooted, but running stock ROM, and received the notification. So being rooted wouldn't necessarily be the cause.
[Sprint LG G3] lordnykon21:
I downloaded the Google OTA file, renamed it, and put it on my external SD card. When I go into stock recovery, and try to install it via SD, I get an error saying it couldn't mount the SD? Anyone else having this problem? I'm not rooted. The error is - e: failed to mount/sdcard (invalid argument)
[Sprint LG G3] JustusIV:
I am running the CM12 currently.... What all should be flashed from this update? modem? anything else?
[Sprint LG G3] myxmastrmike:
when flashing boot/modem/system, do you need to reboot after each one, or can you flash them all at once and then reboot?

Also, to clarify, if I .tot to ZV4, root and install TWRP and then flash the boot/modem/system manually, what would be different from me doing the .tot, rooting/TWRPing and then say, installing THIS ROM ?

Thanks a bunch!
[Sprint LG G3] burner50:
No. You do not reboot between them. Be forewarned that the system file uploaded previously has some extra characters in the filename that will cause it to not flash using flash2.

Yes ,using that ROM would be the same thing as doing everything I did.
[Sprint LG G3] myxmastrmike:
Alrighty..thanks for the reply good sir...

I actually went ahead and used BarRin-ZV6 instead since it already had all the bloat stripped ;)
[Sprint LG G3] fury161:
I had the same problem, doesn't work for what ever reason. Just down load the newest sdk and pull ADB out of it and side load it in recovery, easy.
[Sprint LG G3] scottspa74:
Is your card 64gb? If so, it need to be formatted to fat32, from what I've read. Seen several posts about it here.
[Sprint LG G3] kc3:
Flashed this via adb and now my g3 has no aux port issue :D
[Sprint LG G3] bmtdan:
So I'm going to admit here that I'm a little new to LG mostly owned HTC's in the past and I'm a little confused on all that I would actually need to update.

I'm currently on CM12 and don't really plan on going back to stock unless I would really need to.

Should I flash any of these files? Mostly referring to modem in this case.

Tried to read into the thread a little bit but apparently I'm the only one who is confused :p

I'm on zv4 bootloader, would like to update to zv6 bootlaoder and keep root. Using your link provided to zv6 .imgs and partitions http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G3/LS990/stock_partitions/ZV6

.... I plan to use my bump'd TWRP to flash these, but there are a couple in there that I'm not sure about. Which ones should I flash if I plan to keep my current recovery, want root, and plan to flash a 5.1.1 custom ROM right after?

TIA!

edit: tried flashing all 13 .img (minus recovery.img) files from zv6 folder. Then flash custom rom. Received security error upon boot. Any idea why? I must have slipped up somewhere. LG flash tool back to stock zv4, rooted, back in business...
[Sprint LG G3] kdbmonster:
I am extremely new to this and don't have a clue how to fix my phone right now. I purchased a sprint used phone from amzaon but I did not know that it was rooted . I accepted an update on the phone and got stuctk at the TWRP screen in a boot loop. I unrooted with the zv4 flash but I think the phone was already in zv6. I have not been able to get service on the phone . I have accepted the android updates and the phone is in zv8 right now but still no service . factory rest but still no service, ##72786# but still no service.. I can try flashing the zv6 but I don't think thats the problem. can anyone offer advice. My phone says mobile network state disconnected and service state is out of state.

[HTC One E8] jackerhack:
Hey guys,

I have a new HTC E8, rooted like any respectable XDA member. I'm from India and travelling to Singapore, and there's some weirdness with my Airtel nano SIM and the SIM 2 slot. I have a local SIM with 3G in Slot 1.

For the first two days, Slot 2 would occasionally disappear, with the phone claiming there was no SIM in it. Opening and closing the tray would restore the connection. On day three, this stopped working. No amount of reinserting would get the phone to recognise the SIM.

So I swapped the SIMs and both work. Swapped them back and the Airtel doesn't work in Slot 2. The local M1 SIM has no problem in either slot, but I obviously get only 2G in Slot 2, and the whole point of a local SIM and a dual SIM phone is to get cheap data when on roaming.

Help me figure this out? Either the Airtel SIM doesn't like Slot 2 anymore (it used to work), and refuses to work on it, or the phone doesn't like the SIM, or there's simply a loose contact (but that doesn't explain why the other SIM works).

The only reason to stay on KitKat is Xposed.

Since I have preferred the much improved performance of ART over the possibility to customize my phone with Xposed for more than one year now, I updated to Lollipop as soon as it was released (and previously I also used the DPs).

I'm just waiting for the update for the cellular N7...
[Nexus 5 General] Horoscope:
atlest for the next few weeks are so I am sticking with Kitkat... once stable Roms start coming in will jump to Lollipop..

I have been spoiled with Xposed and Gravitybox
[Nexus 5 General] GuitarGuy96:
Why can't Lollipop and Xposed just get along!!

I've to agree with the 2 posts above this one :P Even though I am running Lollipop, gosh I miss Xposed Framework so much!! I even reverted to a backup I'd taken waaaaayy back when I used 4.4.4 Mahdi with Elemental X And Xposed Framework...

But, lollipop! :P It's so visually pleasing and after using L for so long, KK just seemed to look, outdated. :P Comparatively. After a while you notice a weird jittering and jagger and lack of animations, spacing and styles of everything that spoiled you in L, missing from KK.. Even the Xposed customizations, (Gravity Box, XGELS) that tried to come close to the L look weren't cutting it.. I really hope rovo89 does the insanely cool God-like coding and tweaks and manages to get Xposed running on ART.. :fingers-crossed: :D:fingers-crossed:

Hi

I bought this Note4 on contract last month after a week or so I was getting a burnt smell somewhere in the phone I couldn't find the place finally the s pen was smelling I thought it might be common. The smell went stronger when the days passed this week I took the phone to the smart care they took 4 days and gave me back the phone I now removed the s pen and it smells same they had changed the lcd, pba etc 4 components for nothing now my s pen is not working I have go back again I have already visited them 3 times till now.
