TOT Firmware, must match installed version?

Hey, thanks for providing this tool!

Final question, the TOT file must this match the installed version?

My situation:

Lollipop was installed, goal was to move to a custom rom (blisspop v2.3)

Rooting was successful

Install of twrp not, reboot into recovery caused the 'signature verification error'

Tried to flash the kitkat rom via the download method, failed, ...

Currently, I have the same verification error also when trying to get into download mode and have the Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 in my device manager.

I have the LGD855AT-00-V10e-EUR-XX-JUL-08-2014-16G+0.tot file and did the first step of your procedure. Can I do the second step with this extract of kitkat even if lollipop was installed?

any feedback greatly appreciated!

TOT / KDZ flash errors

Now I can go back to download mode :)

Used the method and tools of showthread.php?t=2785089 to flash the stock firmware

Both are failing :(

LG Flashtool starts ok, but after 14s, there is an exception 'Can't change to download mode'

KDZ method, after around 14% returns also an exception, and % drops to 0% on the phone ...

Stuck at this ...

Thx for your help so far!

UPDATE: TOT Flashing method did NOT work on my W8 desktop, even in W7 compatibility mode. Retried on a W7 portable, everything succeeded on the first try! The G3 is back to stock KitKat, ready to be rooted again :)
[G3 General] sourly64:
[MENTION=6562044]willcracker[/MENTION]

to let everyone know, this worked for me on a d850 with a d851 bootloader that went to qhsusb_bulk 9008.

after trying like 20 times, on windows 10, it always said the error phone not in download or something... tried on windows 7 and the same thing... whatched the videos and saw he did it on port 10. guess what? changed it to port 10 and it worked! like if I hadnt tried it before, like it was trolling me. but it worked, and it actually worked on Windows 10!. FYI it was on 9008, no need to short or open it at all.

so try it on Port 10 and see if it works.

after that it boots in Fastboot then flash what you need, if you flash laf.img download mode works.

but on mine is now recognized as D851 and im working on that....

this should be mentioned it may be the difference or just luck, but it did work once I Changed it. I was starting to look for paid options....
[G3 General] GTRanushka:
hi can you please show me the location where your 2nd picture shows. I tried as your 1st picture says. but I have no idea where those capacitors exists as your 2nd pic.

What do you need to do to get the serial ports found? What drivers or software needs to be installed? I am getting stuck in the second image's instructions because "Serial port open FAILED..."

Can anyone help me with this???

EDIT: Was able to get the proper drivers through a post by [MENTION=4502882]richardlibeau[/MENTION]. Here's the link to those drivers http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1536354&page=4

EDIT 2: WOW we have the same exact problem. When trying to restore the .tot file in download mode I got an error showing that I have a d851 instead of a d850. I have an AT&T d850 but my phone thinks its a d851. This is because I tried flashing the d851 version of CloudyFA 2.2 ROM and I think it flashed the bootloader for the d851. Do you think it would be safe to use the .dll file from a d851 file to trick LGFLashTool? And then of course use the at&t .tot fie to flash the stock image?

EDIT 3: NVM that did NOT work! Dang it just when I got the phone back to a screen it is still broken. If any kind soul has any way for me to fix this issue I would be forever grateful. I am stuck with a d850 in download mode that says "LG-D851 0.5.0 Hrev_10" and underneath says "CloudyG3 2.2". This might be impossible but I think what I need to do is flash the at&t bootloader back onto the device
[G3 General] arjuna_:
Is there any potential damage to flashing a twrp .img through the BoardDiag tool instead of a stock recovery.img?

Guys.. Thank you for offering helping hand for me. I was so down and pissed off when my phone keep saying it's a D851. SO finally I flashed "System" file through Willcracker's software. it took around 1.5 hours to complete. but after the flash it was completely OK. then I reflashed stock via LG flash tool under download mode. Now my phone is working again. Thank you guys for offering a great help for me. ^_^ :) :good: :highfive:

Lg g3 qualcomm 9008 when install driver then use tool boardiag fake tool say device not found in dload trying flash programmer

when you use tool fake board share in xda another tool say device not found in dload trying flash programmer you need remove battery (of lg g2 hold power 1 minute) then connect cable again and use tool again

Sure install driver 100% wrong

With windowns 64 bit you need restart pc then click f8 choose disbable driver singturne....

Then remove battery (hold power 1 minute with lg g2) then connect cable try use tool unbrick >> sure done 100%

I will updload video error dload

Remember disbbale tool sony erricson if you have open tool in taskbar
[G3 General] willcracker:
UPDATE unbrick lg d851 d850 when use tool boarddiag say error “No response from the device. Check PMIC first and

Today my friends send this pics to me(find the attachments).

Developers fight hard for us to get root but in China it is easy to get a unlocked BL version of DT.

Of course we can definitely sure that this is not a retail version. 'Some models leaked from factory'.

I can easily buy one for $620.00 from taobao(Chinese ebay).

Now I only hope the developers can fight harder to get us unlocked or fully rooted.

Also, FU VERIZON, GIVE ME 5.1!!!!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Flowah:
Uhhh..... I hope a dev sees this, confirms, and says that "Yeah if that guy can upload something from his phone we can crack this sucker!"

Any chance in hell that this could be applied to ultra/maxx
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Harry44:
We don't even have anything for the turbo, why on earth would something that doesnt exist yet work on the ultra/maxx. Also this device as far as I read was sold with BL unlock, not something done after the fact.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] r3pwn:
Nope. :/
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ilia3367:
Why?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] r3pwn:
1) The bootloader on there is a lower version than what you have on your phone, so flashing it would brick yours.

2) Even if it didn't brick when you flashed it, it would behave like the normal bootloader, as you are still using a production device.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] drmrjake:
My bad
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] fallingcat:
look at this BL version, this is the latest version right?

The seller said they can unlock the bootload, not sure how...

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
Edited: On Motorola devices that are legally shipped (meaning not stolen from the Chinese factory where they are produced), Status Code 0 is the Locked and never been unlocked by the fastboot oem unlock command state.

The phones are manufactured unlocked in the state Status Code 1, and are locked before they leave the factory and so will be Status Code 0 Locked upon receipt. The only way to get a Motorola phone that is Status Code 1 Unlocked is to "take" it from the Chinese factory before it gets locked and put into the state Status Code 0 Locked.

As is clear from that photo, the bootloader status is Status Code 1 Unlocked. AFAIK, this is one of those "factory" devices as they are referred to on Tao Bao. They have not yet been locked before they are "removed" from the factory. I doubt this was accomplished by a "developer". The only way to get a Motorola phone that is Status Code 1 Unlocked is to "remove" it from the factory before the phone is locked for the first time.

Where to buy on taobao

I know that you cannot post a link to the sale item (xda rules). But, can you provide detailed instructions on how someone like me could find it via searching on taobao?

Great find, and thanks in advance.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] fallingcat:
PM sent.

taobao is not that friendly for oversea buyers, payment and shipment...
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] r3pwn:
I think you might be mistaken. In all of the reverse engineering I've done, status mode 3 is a pre-unlocked engineering device and status 1 is just plain unlocked. Even my Moto 360 (unlocked) shows status 1.

EDIT: Now that I look back at the photo, these devices are more than just "unlocked". They have secure boot off, which means that it would be possible for someone to flash a custom bootloader if they wanted to. Unless, however, I am mistaken, which is entirely possible.

EDIT 2: Oops, looks like 1 and 3 are both unlocked with no distinct difference between the two.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
Status Code 3 is the unlocked state on both of my Moto X 2013 and my N6. When I relocked my N6, it goes to Status code 2 locked.

However, now that I checked my Verizon Moto X 2014 (which has never been unlocked before) it is Status Code 0 Locked.

So I believe that Status Code 1 is the factory state of unlocked and never been locked before. I will edit my earlier post but the bottom line in all of this is that this was not done by a developer - these devices were "taken" from the factory in China before they were locked.

---------- Post added at 05:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:04 PM ----------

Are you sure these phones are not on the global blacklist?

---------- Post added at 05:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:10 PM ----------

I believe these devices were "taken" from the Chinese factory. They are referred to as factory devices on Tao Bao. I believe they are newly manufactured and have never been locked before and are "taken" from the factory before they are locked down.

There is a difference b/t Status Code 1 Unlocked and Status Code 3 Unlocked. Status Code 3 Unlocked means the phone was locked at the factory and then you executed the fastboot oem unlock command to unlock it. Status Code 1 Unlocked means that they were never locked at the factory.

Feel free to speculate how these "factory" devices as they are referred to on Tao Bao were removed from the factory :rolleyes:

Final verdict: Will this help us verizon usa folks towards the ultimate achievement on unlocking the bootloader?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Harry44:
I mean it would be awesome to get one with an unlocked bootloader but I mean. They were probably "taken" from the factory. Additionally at that point instead of getting another turbo, might as well just buy a phone like the Nexus 6 which has a ton of development for it.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
I don't think so b/c I don't think this was done by someone who found an exploit.

---------- Post added at 06:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:19 PM ----------

Well I certainly wouldn't be buying one of these factory devices, but I also found the N6 was really too large for me to use as my daily driver not to mention the issues with the battery life compared to the DT. So there are plenty of reasons to choose the DT over the N6 for many people

The N6 is a nice phone, don't get me wrong, but its size makes it less appealing for many people. I really hate the fact that my Moto X 2014 is so locked down, but it is a much better choice for me to use as my daily driver.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] r3pwn:
(Replying to all)

No, taking the files from one of these devices wouldn't help us at all. The system image may be of interest, but I have one and haven't had a chance to dig through it yet. Stupid Windows won't mount it because it's an EXT4 partition dump.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] CrazyRussianXDA:

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] adrynalyne:
Gotta say, that was a weird attack on them.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] fallingcat:
The seller said these devices were imported from US and they didn't came with the original package.

A reputed seller claims these phones came from a batch with red screen issue, then someone fixed them and leaked to the market.

Sounds4 doggy
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
Fixing the screen could not reset the phone to Unlocked Status Code 1. The retail phones ship Locked Status Code 0. When you unlock them they go to Unlocked Status Code 3. When you relock them, they go to Locked Status Code 2.

AFAIK, the phones are only Unlocked Status Code 1 when the phones are in the factory before they are locked for the first time.
