I haven't really fooled around much with trying to manually apply OTAs. I was successful with the VS985 12B->23A/B/C beta and final OTAs but not once since then. The way that worked for 12B->23C didn't work for me for 23C->24B. I more provided the files for other people to try too, in hopes that if they did find success, they'd report it and describe what they did. No one's done so.

As you found out, you can't flash OTAs from a custom recovery - you have to be fully stock never rooted (since the most recent time you flashed a KDZ or TOT) in order to take OTAs.

Also, you're posting in the wrong place. :) This is the LG G Pad 8.3 section, and this is the ClockworkMod Recovery thread, nothing related to OTAs for the VS985. I have a thread for the VS985 OTAs in the General section of the Verizon G3 forums, but as I said, no one's reported having success with 23C->24B or higher.

Why not just flash the 24B KDZ or whatever release you're wanting to be on? It's a lot easier than trying to manually apply an OTA. If you're only incrementing one step in releases (23C->24B) for the VS985, you could probably get away with using the "Normal" option which doesn't wipe your data, although I'd use the built-in LG Backup first just in case and save the backup to the external MicroSD card.

If you're wanting to be rooted and on 24B or another higher version, just wipe from custom recovery and flash a 24B or whatever ROM. There's versions of JasmineROM and SkyDragon that are made with 24B - I think JasmineROM v8 and SkyDragon v5.

If you're not rooted or don't have custom recovery, flash the 10B KDZ with the CSE option (which wipes all data including internal storage), root with the Stump app, use TWRP Manager from the Play Store to install TWRP, then flash JasmineROM v8 and the 24B Bootstack from [MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION] 's VS985 v2.0 thread.

Then maybe I have the wrong file. I'm trying to get the clockworkmod recovery on a VK810 with 4.2.2 rooted and TWRP 2.7.0.1 recovery. The original source for cwm 6.0.5.1 is a dropbox that isn't there any more. I thought the file I mentioned was the equivalent. Maybe my problem is that I don't know where to find cwm 6.0.5.1 for the VK810.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Thanks for accidentally discovering that I had the right file named wrong, and the wrong file named the right thing in the same place! :D Sorry about the confusion.

Edit 3: I am NOT having a good day. I managed to delete the wrong file both on my local PC I just downloaded them to, and on AFH. *grumble* I'm looking for another copy, I might have it on my PC at home or on my flash drive.

[MENTION=6817772]b52apl[/MENTION]

Do *you* still have the file you had originally downloaded? The .7z one that said VS985 and OTA? If you rename it to .zip it should work - the contents looked fine when I checked after I did that, but then I accidentally deleted it, and I had already purposely deleted it on AFH since I thought it was the wrong file. If you still have the original zip could you upload it somewhere so I can put it back on AFH? I've also PM'd the OP to see if he still has the file.

I can't believe I did all that.

You can still use TWRP v2.8.7.0 (flash the new version from your existing 2.7.0.1) in the meantime if you wish. It's in one of these sections - my stickied guide in the General section should have a link to the thread if you can't find it.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] b52apl:
I still have the file. I don't have a personal place to upload it to. If you send me a message with an address, I'll upload it to wherever you want it. The file is 9.52Mb. Just to be clear, I converted it to a .zip file, but TWRP refused to install it. Should I have tried to restore it as a backup file?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I'll PM you a link to a folder on my Google Drive that I gave public permissions to upload.

When you say you converted it to a zip, what exactly did you do? Did you just rename the file or something else? I'll still take a look at it, see if I can figure it out, and as long as I can extract the recovery.img from the zip, then I can make a fresh zip if necessary.

No, you wouldn't be able to restore it because it's not a TWRP backup.

If you upgrade to TWRP 2.8.7.0 then you can choose it's option to flash am Image instead of Zip and can try flashing the recovery.img if you can extract that from the zip, but probably best to be safe and let me test first.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
[MENTION=6817772]b52apl[/MENTION]

Good news! I was able to rename the file to vk810-CWM_6.0.5.1-recovery-by-N00b-un-2.zip and it worked perfectly. I was able to flash it, reboot recovery and was in CWM recovery. Mind you, I wasn't on TWRP v2.7.0.1 any more - I was already upgraded to TWRP v2.8.7.0, so I don't know if there's any compatibility issue with the much earlier version of TWRP. Once I rebooted in CWM Recovery, I was able to flash the TWRP v2.8.7.0 zip back and reboot recovery again, although I had to turn CWM's Advanced menu/Lokify option off first. I was also able to extract the recovery.img from the zip and as I suggested, it's got to be fine to flash that directly from TWRP v2.8.7.0 which has the option to switch from displaying Zips to displaying Img's, and then to flash it.

I also had a text file with the original MD5 hash of the "vk810-CWM_6.0.5.1-recovery-by-N00b-un-2.zip" I had uploaded previously, and it was the same MD5 so I know it wasn't corrupted:

Ok guys... i have the vk810, but I foolishly downloaded the 5.x update, and don't have a copy of the original stock recovery for the 4.4.2 rom, does anyone have a copy??? The reason I ask, is the fact that despite wiping the WHOLE tablet and restoring a TWRP backup, i am in a recovery boot loop, and keeps booting my custom recovery...

Hello,

Been using Black v1.2 for a few days, was holding out for version 2 before asking for help but this doesn't help me - excellent rom btw.

Our Exchange server is using self signed certificates, which have expired. I have been working on our Tech support to have this renewed but not holding my breath for this to be done anytime soon.

In WM5 there was a registry hack (added a DWORD of value 0 called secure to the partnership key) which forced activesync to ignore the above problem, however this doesnt work in WM6, does anyone have a solution to this?

I did try searching first but could see a solution.

Cheers,

James
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] rjefferis:
Your tech support guys must be useless. Self signed certs, well so do I. But it only takes a couple of mins to re-issue and install.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jeffreycentex:
Try running without SSL. This would work better, anyway.

If all of the certs have expired, they should be getting many problems with people failing to connect on their phones and any Outlook client using HTTP over RPC (now called Outlook Anywhere).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] silverfox0214:
I don't agree

Self signed certs should be ok. Get a CER version and load it to the handheld. Previous versions of WM would take a program called CERTCHK.EXE and bypass the trusted root authority check. You can also install the root cert of your local CA, if you can have your admins deliver that.

Running without SSL transmits your password in the clear. NOT A GOOD IDEA, last I checked. :eek:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] brownjl:
Cheers for the Replies,

I had a go at extracting the root/intermediate certificate using sslchainsaver, and then installing them onto the device but I still get the same problem...

http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2006/08/11/sslchainsaver.aspx

Plus our server won’t allow none ssl traffic (a bit cheeky of them having no valid cert :)), just looks like am stuck waiting for them to update the certificate...

btw for your information, this was the hack to force WM5 not to check the certificate.

Thanks again

James
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] silverfox0214:
I fixed mine the old fashioned way

James,

You may want to try this. Once I loaded Black 2.0, the cert said "expired". I went into WMDC, deleted the previous partnership, logged into Outlook. Connected the device, set up partnership, then let it sync.

It must have installed the cert, because ASync is working perfectly again.

Give that a go and see if it works.

Regards,

Steve
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] brownjl:
You Got my hopes up then :)

I gave that a go, deleted the partnership on the device. This time I used WMDC to set up the partnership, which did state that the Certificate could not be verified but gave me an option to use it anyway. But still the same result - I get erorr 0x80072F17 when trying to sync wirelessly.

Cheers,

James

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtr4438:
FIXED after sending to LG.

Problem: Level3(L3) repair, Damaged Board components without replace any housing.

Cost: $77 which included shipping both ways.

Hello, my ATT D800 LG G2 recently went crazy (not rooted or anything other than factory, it shut down while viewing a text, wouldn't start unless a hard reset was attempted, finally turned on but would shut down minutes later and same above had to be repeated.) Phone is not water damaged or physcially damaged, touch screen works perfect and buttons all work. I was told at a local cell phone shop that the motherboard could be failing but they could not repair/replace.

Log of issues:

-Phone randomly shutdown while using it (black screen with LG logo appeared at shutdown).

-Would not turn back on normally. (black screen LG logo -> off then repeating several times before shutting down.

-Bringing up hard reset then cancelling several times finally booted phone.

-Phone crashed again within minutes and above was repeated several times until phone started.

-Recent apps were deleted, then phone shut down again shortly after

-Phone was rebooted and safe mode was entered, phone still shutdown

-Phone was factory reset (everything erased) but is still hit or miss on how long it tries to boot before crashing again

-Battery was fully charged on of the times it stayed running for a while and still shows a full battery.

-Nothing other than stock rom here, the only thing close to "adventurous" was installing/using greenify since a couple months ago

-Download mode doesn't work

-Tried factory resetting and it crashed while doing it. Eventually did restart for about 30 sec before crashing again.

-Random moments while trying to start- white/silver fuzzy screen, occasional red led blink (didn't catch how many), saying no sim card while it was installed.

Can someone point me in the right direction as how how to fix this myself or which kind of repair shop to do it? Most shops do some hardware but none seem to do the motherboard if that's the issue. I did see a thread where the battery was causing all kinds of problems, but the phone was swollen too, not mine.

Thanks in advance!!!

-Devin

It might be your battery, u can go to a service center and replace the battery. It may can be your motherboard too, in this case only certified LG service center can help you. If your HDD partitions have corrupted somehow. Which means partial hard brick.

A CSE flash can help here. Steps -

1. Download the desired stock rom for ur device from here[

Dont download a wrong firmware

] - http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/LG+G2/Stock/

2. Download the latest LG driver from the attachment below, install it and reboot ur pc.

3. Download the LG Flash tool from the attachment below and extract it on ur desktop.

4. Turn off ur phone and wait for 2min. Make sure its completely turned off.

5. Hold the vol up button on ur device and plug in a usb cable to connect ur device with ur pc. Hold the vol up button until u see download mode on ur device.

6. Now run LGFlashTool2014.exe[Step 3] on ur pc as admin.

7. Now on the window select CDMA from type & click on the 'folder icon' and add the .kdz file[step 1]

8. Next click CSE flash. A new window should open. Click start.

9. Another window will open, click 'clear phone software update registry'. Then click ok at the bottom[Dont change lang or country]

10. Wait till 100% is done and ur phone boots in.

This may solve ur issue if not then go to nearest service center.

If your device doesn't boot in/stuck in bootloop after flashing do a hard reset -

1. Power off the device and ensure it is not connected to any USB cables.

2. At the same time, press and hold the following keys for 8 seconds:

-Power key

-Volume down key

3. When the LG Logo is displayed, release and then immediately re-hold the Power key.

4. When the 'FACTORY HARD RESET' screen displays, release the keys.

5. Press the Power key to reset or one of the Volume keys to cancel.

6. Press the Power key to confirm the reset. The reset will start immediately.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] altimax98:
So I want to start this out by saying this isnt a Note 4 vs Nexus 6 thread or a complaining thread about how the Nexus 6 sucks.

This is a thread to try and figure out the culprit of an issue I think a lot of us are having, but not all of us.

I was running Euphoria OS for a while, loved it. But there was one nagging issue, it would stutter. It was almost as if there was a delay and the device couldnt process all the frame and would drop them. It was still responsive, just not fluid at all. It wasn't on every single screen or animation, but it would appear on every unlock, opening certain programs and almost always on swiping in a sidebar menu. It is very very noticeable if you put Phase Beam or Sun Beam wallpapers on, the animation was not even remotely smooth. I tried different Kernels (I was decrypted BTW) and all of them showed the same behavior. I then set my governors to Performance to speed up the ramp up time, no change. I adjusted the DPI, no change. Nothing I could do would get rid of the janky issues.

I chalked it up to the ROM and installed the nightly CM build (1/20), the exact same issue appeared even without signing into my Google account. Just the ROM and GAPPS were flashed. Switched to another AOSP (modified) based ROM (not CM based) and the same issue happened again. It seems that only stock unmodified ROM's run smoothly on my device.

Is anyone else seeing this? Does anyone else have any thoughts as to why I am seeing this. I know I am not alone, a few people on Reddit said they saw the same thing on Euphoria (again its not the ROM's fault, its something else).

Well, I get the unlock stutter and some other subtle stutters on every non-stock kernel that I've tried. It happens consistently, then disappears completely once I flash the stock kernel. This is on 5.0.1 stock, though. I've only been on one AOSP ROM briefly and experienced the same.

Like I mentioned in the OP though, I have run all AOSP eligible Kernels on various governors and settings with no change. However, If I run any of the kernels on a stock based it runs like butter.

So if you run CM or any of the others on the default Kernel you are fine, but not on custom kernels... Interesting, I cant recall if I used the stock CM kernel or not. I know Euphoria ships with Lean so It wouldnt matter there.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doitright:
It sounds to me like all the different rom makers are including some common change in their kernels compared to the factory kernel. Not all that surprising, since when one person makes a change that everyone likes, everyone will do a pull and bring in ALL the changes from that kernel (including the bad ones).... and or everybody forks someone, who is probably not AOSP. CM tends to be a common place to fork or pull from.
