I see the update available to be pulled now.

SuperSU in survival mode or not? I'm on 11C, but I wouldn't think going from 10C/rooted to 12B or 11C/rooted to 12B would make a difference. I guess I'll give it a go here as soon as I can restore that system file.
[Verizon LG G3] david_hume:
I had SuperSU on survival mode. That's what I've always done for each of the updates Verizon released and I've been able to keep root because of it.
[Verizon LG G3] lexluthor:
I don't think survival mode is required. It wasn't went I went from 10C to 11C.
[Verizon LG G3] hawkswind1:
I'm holding off on this one. I bounce between 4g and 3g a lot and I heard that if you start a call on 4g and it drops to 3g, you will drop the call. Not sure if this is true, hope someone can chime in
[Verizon LG G3] lexluthor:
From what I read somewhere, I think you can turn it off if you don't like it. My update completed, it's optimizing apps now. Will post once I confirm I've kept root (or not).
[Verizon LG G3] Hooterman:
I just updated mine. I upgraded from 11C and still have root. I put my SU in survival mode just in case, but I'm not sure if that was necessary or not.

Also, for those that are worried about being stuck on VoLTE. There's a new entry in the Settings menu that lets you turn the "Advanced Calling" on/off at will.
[Verizon LG G3] j0hnnyn:
I'm still on 10b rooted using xposed installer with some system apps uninstalled. Any chance I'll be okay taking the update?
[Verizon LG G3] xdabbeb:
If someone could pm me with a link to a system partition dump (or kdz) it would be appreciated, thanks.

EDIT: nvm, got it.
[Verizon LG G3] lexluthor:
I'm back up. I had to restore the sound system file, do the update, then put my custom file back. My frozen apps stayed frozen. I had to re-install xposed framework (didn't have to uninstall it first) and I still have root (I did not have SuperSU in survival mode). All in all pretty easy. Yes, I know the update could have included a shut out of root, but it didn't (for me).

You'll probably have to restore those system apps if you did any type of "hack" uninstall (as opposed through some sort of regular OS menu).

Other than that, you should be good. Just re-install xposed framework through the xposed installer that's still there after the update.

I see a new settings menu for advanced calling with an activate button. It doesn't work for me though because I'm on a business account. I'll have to see if I can get the admin to do it for me. I guess it can be activated either there or through the link in the OP to the My Account portal.

[Verizon LG G3] taihard:
I've been doing some searching and still haven't found an answer yet... anyone know how to get rid of the error 0x1117008 when trying to update? I originally was getting error 0x11110004 but found out that was related to the hacked hotspot apk... put the original back and am now getting the new error. I've uninstalled pretty much every app that requires root and am trying to update with super su in survival mode but still a no go. Anybody know what I need to do besides factory restore?

**EDIT** Could it be because my software status shows up as "modified"? Those that have applied OTA with root, did/does your software status say "modified" and update still worked?
[Verizon LG G3] cpg1987:
Same thing here. I hope there is something else other than using LG Flashtool to download the stock firmware
[Verizon LG G3] taihard:
Here's another thing i'm noticing... before, I downloaded a couple UI themes to change the nav buttons at the bottom through g3 tweaksbox and after removing g3 tweaksbox, the buttons changed to stock on the home screen but if I go in to settings or any other app it still shows the "LG" logo as my "home" button... maybe some left behind changes that are preventing update?
[Verizon LG G3] Hooterman:
I did this earlier, it shouldn't be difficult for you, assuming your admin isn't a jerk of course. :) It's a feature that needs to be checked on your account, but it's also a free feature, so I'm not sure what excuse they'd have for denying your request.

Can't help you with your error code, but I can say that my rooted phone also reported as "modified" status before applying the OTA and it still does afterwards as well.
[Verizon LG G3] shadiguy1:
Please help

Phone is rooted and has oem rom ... and xposed framework for tweakbox philz recovery mode just keeps loading after i treid the update what can i do i cant get back into my phone at all please help

Also tried resotring a backup i made yesterday before any of this and its still doing the same thing please please please helpl
[Verizon LG G3] tech_head:
​

No. Xposed will block all OTA and removing system Apps will also.
[Verizon LG G3] bweN diorD:
can one of you guys (or anyone else who took the update) use this code to pull the modem for us please?

(use terminal emulator)

adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modem of=/sdcard/modem-12B.img

Thanks!!
[Verizon LG G3] stang6790:
I had Xposed installed and it updated no problem. But I would think the system apps would make it fail though.
[Verizon LG G3] trent999:
If the new vg3's ship with firmware v12b or the previous firmware v11c, then no. Out of the box they cannot be rooted, so you cannot flash custom recovery (bumped TWRP) to flash custom Roms or kernels.

Only the originally shipped firmware, v10b, has a disclosed rooting method.

To "unlock" any later firmware, you must revert/downgrade to v10b first, using either the .TOT or the .kdz method (see elsewhere on XDA for methods and files), root that version before it gets OTA upgraded back to v12b, then use that root to set the phone up as you wish (debloat, freeze OTA's, install TWRP, flash whatever you want).

So far, every OTA firmware version has allowed roll-back to v10b, but that can change. Installing a custom recovery like TWRP requires the recovery be altered to pass the secure signing test (via the BumpD method), and that capability could be removed by LG and Verizon at any point, though it has not happened yet. Look out for the eventual stock Lollipop OTA, in other words.
[Verizon LG G3] mcerk02:

I flashed the 12B boot.img, system.img, and modem.img using the newest TWRP, and it looks like it was successful when I go into "about phone", but even after flashing it is still keeps telling me there is a new system update ready to install. Any ideas? How do I get rid of the system update notification?
[Verizon LG G3] Outta:
yes if you get it RIGHT NOW before the in store models have the software upgrade
[Verizon LG G3] gatesjunior:
It's probably in your cache area, go into twrp and wipe dalvik/cache and see what happens.
[Verizon LG G3] markfm:
This will properly clear things if the ota got loaded onto your phone: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=56061720

Otherwise, you need to freeze "System updates...", or rename the two LGDMSClient files in /system/app. Those are vzw's system updater, which checks for whether an ota is available.
[Verizon LG G3] Robshr:
i tried coming from 10b and lost root when i took the update and could not get it back had to revert back to 10b reroot the flash the 12b update which was posted
[Verizon LG G3] lexluthor:
I'm stock/rooted/no changed system files. I took the last 2 updates without losing root and not using survival mode in Super SU.

Can someone help me cause I'm stuck I have gone everywhere to try and root my phone but. Its not working plz help me
[Verizon LG G3] pahlerc1:
You haven't read much... 12B can't be rooted.. You need to use the LG FLash Tool and use the 10B KDZ file and then root using stumproot v1.2.. Then use an app flashify to put TWRP bumped recovery. I am sure if you google you can find these steps in more detail. Also go to the XDA General for your phone and there will be many articles on this!

i would rather not play pm tag, nothing personal.

you need to find the stock recovery img and flash it back on. flashify is the easiest way.

noob mistake taking the update with a diffrent Recovery mode lol. So now my question is how do i apply this update or do i need to flash a factory rom ? or is there a way to flash the factory recovery mode back to my phone to take the update please advise.
[Verizon LG G3] bweN diorD:
go to the play store and get "flashify" to put the recovery back on, or go to wherever you got instruction to put phils on and do the same thing, except with the stock recovery file i gave you.

after that, try the update.

Oh wait, I was trying to run it through a command prompt on my machine.

[Verizon LG G3] planedoc:
You flash this with flashify? The 12B modem image?
[Verizon LG G3] bweN diorD:
others reported this earlier, i dont recall seeing a solution.

make sure you didnt delete or freeze any system apps, if you did, put them back.

if that doesnt work, you will have to wait until someone figures out what is causing this error.

---------- Post added at 06:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:53 PM ----------

i dont use flashify, so im not sure its capabilities outside of recovery.

i used autoprimes flash2 method.

VoLTE files

I'm new so I can't post any links yet, but if anyone wants to try to get VoLTE working on a different version/ROM just PM me, I have some of the files zipped up in my dropbox. Not quite sure what would exactly be needed.
[Verizon LG G3] THEbigSWEEN:
I'm using the Vanir 5.0 from the thread in the General section and the latest has video camera working. Smooth as can be, definitely DD material. Only thing that sucks is not having Xposed, but it hasn't been as bad as I was expecting, haven't been missing it TOO much :p

Just a reminder for you and anyone else wanting to take the update it could kill your chances of rolling back, and if you can't get a custom recovery on 12B there will more than likely not be any help from Team Codefire going forward (the devs who brought us Stump, Bump! IO Root, etc.) If I didn't have custom ROM's it would be bad news bears and if there's a more serious problem you may not be able to fix with TOT or KDZ. Like I said, not specifically towards you, just a warning that probably can't be repeated enough!

Thank you to you and [MENTION=2022229]Hooterman[/MENTION] for being on top of getting the new modem and testing it! Like you, that is the ONLY thing that I'm interested in from official updates. Otherwise I wouldn't pay them any mind. :highfive: 11C modem was an improvement for me from 10B, so hopefully 12B will be even better! :victory:
[Verizon LG G3] arkfirefighter:
If you flash back to stock using the tot file you wont get the error 0x1111002 when you try and update. Just tested it myself and no longer get the error. I did received the error flashing back to stock using the kdz file then trying the update .

[Verizon LG G3] GillRigged:
Well, I signed up for VoLTE but I'm going to wait for someone to make a flashable zip for 12B so that I can keep a custom recovery.
[Verizon LG G3] 318sugarhill:
It's really easy if you use Autoprime's Flash 2 method. It's basically a flashable zip for the modem. You just have to drop two files to your phone instead of just one. The flash 2 modem zip, and the modem.img file.

Download the flash2modem.zip from here http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G3/flash2

Put that zip on you internal SD card, then make a new folder in your internal sd card called flash2 No caps. name the 12b modem as modem.img and put it in the flash 2 folder. Go to recovery and flash the flash2modem.zip and it will install the modem.img for you. It's that easy.
[Verizon LG G3] zdroidz:
Just flashing the modem will give us access to VoLTE?
[Verizon LG G3] artjrv:
so...we rename the flash2modem.zip to modem.img? Then we put the modem.img in the flash2 folder? Then your telling us to go to recovery and flash the flash2modem.zip file? How can we flash that file when we just renamed it to modem.img? Maybe I am missing something in my old age or just having a blond moment?
[Verizon LG G3] Colchiro:
Very blonde!

Rename the img file, not the zip file. :D
[Verizon LG G3] acparker18:
Here's a suggestion, don't take any OTA updates while you are rooted or running a custom recovery. The update attempted to update the bootstack while you had a modified recovery installed. If you would have just read either thread, Bump or whatever root method thread you chose, you would noticed all the warnings about never taking an Over-the-Air update once you've installed a custom recovery. It will get you stuck. I'm sorry to sound so harsh, but I'm pretty tired of people doing this even though there has been entire threads devoted to stopping people like you from doing this for months now. Read before you do anything and read before you post a question that could have been answered by searching. Common sense should dictate that the manufacturer of any device is going to be attempting to block and patch these exploits we run on our device with every update.

11C Original HotspotProvision files?

Would someone out there who is still on 11C be able to provide their original /system/app/HotspotProvision.apk and .odex files? I was an idiot and deleted the original before backing them up last time.

The hacked version (to allow free hotspot usage) will not allow me to take the OTA.

Or, if someone knows how I can obtain the original files, that would be a tremendous help!
