By the way info on how you got on this predicament? Would be helpful, might save some others from suffering the same fate.

Good luck! Report back

[XDA Assist] Ananchel27:
Hi XDA. I'm having a really stressful problem right now. Yesterday I rooted my Nexus 6 to Cyanogenmod 12, adding up to installing TWRP. I had fun rooting it all the way and messing around with full control of my device. Until I noticed that, T-Mobile has found out that my Nexus was rooted! As I was having issues with the IMEI of my phone, I couldn't receive and make phone calls. So I went to The Unlockr website and they taught me how to unroot my Nexus 6 and how to flash it back to stock mode. And so I did. I flashed it back to Stock... I thought this was the day the phone would shine bright and reset as stock... But no... TWRP recovery (Teamwin) keeps bootlooping endlessly, leaving me paranoid, into thinking "WTF SHOULD I DO NOW" I want to know what is wrong and what should I do to solve this enormous annoying issue... Please answer back, I'll be in deep trouble if my family knows that my phone is going haywire, and I wouldn't want to spend a lot of money to replace my phone for another one... I need help guys.

You can track which app is misbehaving on your device from Settings - > Data usage.

Also check which app is running in background and corresponding status in battery stats.

Also you can restrict app's background data activity by going into settings->data usage->three dot menu->restrict background

I recently purchased a Verizon M8 on swappa and the seller claims it to be on 4.4.2. Is there any other legacy method that can still be used to root this without paying for sunshine?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Shamestick:
With it being on 4.4.2 the weaksauce/firewater exploit combo might work for you. However I don't know if it is still out in public to be used. I'd say just drop the 25 on sunshine and support the wizards who can unlock these devices for us
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enzyne:
Yea I tried to find a mirror for firewater but no luck. I just wanted to see if there was a way to do it without paying of course being the cheap scumbag that I am. Guess I'll just go the sunshine method. Thanks man.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] CHEVYbarracuda1:
I also had a snake in my wallet. But since firewater failed numerous times i decided to get my phone s-offed with sunshine method. Also be sure to upgrade to 4.4.4 if you are going to s-off with sunshine.

Sent from my HTC6525LVW
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enzyne:
Gotcha. So just RUU to 4.4.4, then use sunshine to get s-off. Thanks for the help. Anything else that I should know specific to this phone? I'm coming from a droid ultra.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] CHEVYbarracuda1:
That's preety much it. Ruu to 4.4.4 run sunshine and enjoy your unlocked phone :)

Sent from my HTC6525LVW
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] baune7:
Also, after you are on 4.4.4 and S-off with Sunshine first... you can take the OTA to Lollipop while retaining S-off. Then once on 5.0 with S-off, you can flash TWRP recovery and be permanently rooted, S-off, stock Lollipop. You just can't update to LP first, then S-off. But it works the other way around, it carries over through the OTA upgrade.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enzyne:
Gotcha, thanks for all the tips guys.

Hi dear developers;

i don't have wirelless modem but i have laptop which has wirelless property :) i want to share my local internet with my pocket pc. i read some resource but i couldn't achieve it. I do this things... let me know what is wrong?

Create a private network(pcToPc) from wireless networks

i shared it and then i connect it from laptop and i got ip which start with 169... fake ip. so i give manuel ip. i set the default gateway to modem ip. then i can connect to net on laptop but i am not sure the wirelless of the laptop which i shared has internet but i can surf anyway

the pocket pc seems the my laptop's private network i am trying to connect it but it gave me the same fake ip so i give to pocket pc SDIO wirelles adapter manuel ip that's default gateway is same with my laptop (the adsl modem's ip)... so i can get connected but i couldn't use internet. when i am trying to test the intert for example www.google.com after writes locating on status bar then an error "The page cannot be found. Check the name and try again." even thoug i set myISP in network Management -- The Internet.

does anybody understand this connection type? If you share with us we will be very glad. Thank you so much ...
[Verizon LG G3] IllegalArgument:
Just a short post... You've presumably already guessed from the title, it is the VS98523C FOTA release. The format is the same as the previous two, so any methods that worked for you then should work for this as well. I haven't finished extracting everything from it yet, so no warranty on how it works, but it is the "official", unmodified 23C FOTA.

23C: http://downloads.codefi.re/illegalargument/LG_VS985/12B_TO_23C.up

Downgrade-ability guinea pig? Anyone....? Not it!
[Verizon LG G3] HolyAngel:
I'm about to update to it, will verify root works and then downgrading.

Edit: Thanks for posting this ^^
[Verizon LG G3] burkett375:
I'm sure Verizon and LG love all the free beta testing we're giving them...
[Verizon LG G3] HolyAngel:
Looks like the wifi syncing issue was fixed. Still testing but definitely looks that way.
[Verizon LG G3] 6NomoN6:
Do dev options stay ticked through reboot?
[Verizon LG G3] HolyAngel:
not sure yet, those are saved in the data partition so should stick regardless.. pretty positive they do on my rom based on 23B..

Side note: Downgrading is NOT blocked on 23C ^^
[Verizon LG G3] nericollin:
Should we then also assume that it'll more than likely be safe to flash the 23C modem on it's own once it's isolated?
[Verizon LG G3] HolyAngel:
Yeah I don't see why not.. as long as you're on lollipop it should be fine. I'll pull it along with the other partitions.
[Verizon LG G3] nericollin:
If the memory leak has been fixed though, I see no reason not to do the update as a whole.

Just so I'm understanding this correctly: both downgrading and root are retained through updating so long as we revert back to 12B first before installing?
[Verizon LG G3] HolyAngel:
No root isn't at all, has to be manually rooted same as 23B. But you can still downgrade no problem.
[Verizon LG G3] nericollin:
Understood. For example then, could I install this update, retain TWRP, and flash a 5.1 AOSP ROM with the 23C base?
[Verizon LG G3] gregcapps:
So was it just a botched update on my end or does WiFi nor work on 23c?

---------- Post added at 03:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:29 PM ----------

Did you factory reset? I can't get WiFi to connect.
[Verizon LG G3] HolyAngel:
No definitely not, you have to be completely stock on 12B with no root and stock recovery in order to flash it.

My wifi was connected on bootup, haven't had a single issue the two times I've ota'd to 23C. Didn't have to factory reset or nothing.
[Verizon LG G3] gregcapps:
First time I used activity launcher to go to 23c from 12b....got no Wi-Fi. Kdz back to 12b, then activity launcher to 23c got no system ui. Now I'm back on 23c after Another kdz to 12b and still have no working Wi-Fi. So I'm confused.

Also won't let me do screenshots. Says cannot copy. Damaged file.
[Verizon LG G3] HolyAngel:
I tot'd to 10b_03 and ota'd up to 12b, no root. Once on 12b i used activity launcher to go up to 23C and worked perfectly. Did that both times with no issues. I had issues with all the kdz files, it's like they're not the official release or something.
[Verizon LG G3] gregcapps:
Where can i get the 10b_03? And how does the tot method work?
[Verizon LG G3] HolyAngel:
10b_03 tot file is here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/6ip22jjhk7g3kgz/LG_G3_VS985_10B_03_Stock_TOT.zip

Its not mine, credits to 216Monster for posting it

And I uploaded the tot based LG Flash tool for ya here:

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934550550

Pretty sure it works the same as kdz with the flashtool. the hacked dll to use it, and the vs985 dll to flash tot's with are included in the folder itself, all you need to do is download it and the tot file, point it to the lg dll file and the tot file, connect phone in download mode, hit ready, unplug and replug phone and it should work. You may need to open device manager->Ports, select the lg g3 port, properties, advanced, and change the port number to COM41 instead of whatever it auto assigns. Thats pretty much it.
[Verizon LG G3] alcor34:
Hunch

This is just a hunch but it seems that when you KDZ to 12b and do the updates, there are errors, myself included experienced them. From what I'm reading, people who go back to 10b and do the ota's upwards are not experiencing problems if any at all. I ToT's back to 10b and ota'd to 12b. I'm going to try 23c to see if I get the no nav buttons or the wifi issues.
[Verizon LG G3] cjchevez:
I had no Wi-Fi but after a factory data reset via back buttons

I'm good now. I just need twrp.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I was the same, WIFI was acting as if it was trying to turn on but would never do anything. Factory Reset solved it. Exact same thing happened to me with 23B and 23A under various circumstances.
[Verizon LG G3] alcor34:
Test Build

As is probably already known, this is most likely a test build as the option to send comprehensive bug report is present in my power menu.
[Verizon LG G3] gatorstew:
Still having the WiFi issue even after factory reset.
[Verizon LG G3] lordsith2k4:
I upgraded from the 12b KDZ and don't have any issues with WIFI. I didn't factory reset either.
[Verizon LG G3] deron37129:
Im on 23a and im trying to update using the ezupdate to 23c but its not taking. Any ideas
[Verizon LG G3] HolyAngel:
The ota is to go from 12B up to 23C, not 23A/B.
[Verizon LG G3] deron37129:
Dang it
[Verizon LG G3] gatorstew:
Anyone having issues with flashing twrp via flashify on 23C? I keep getting secure boot error after each attempt.
[Verizon LG G3] fr4nk1yn:
Isn't that a developer option?
[Verizon LG G3] mopartonyg:
Yes I am also getting that error. Not sure how everyone else is installing it.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
With stock LG Lollipop builds 23A, 23B & 23C, you also have to downgrade the bootloader to 12B's. The easiest and most reliable overall way to upgrade with all the correct partitions is to download JasmineROM v6.0, extract the .img files to the root of your internal storage, and use his InstallROM.sh script from his original base JasmineROM v5.0 non-flashable zip with them from TWRP's Terminal Command option in the Advanced menu, while already on any other build (10B, 12B, 23A, or 23B) and follow his directions to copy his script to /sbin/, make it executable, and then run the script which will install all the correct .img files to the correct partitions. You'll still have to manually flash SuperSU v2.46 after. Then you'll still have TWRP, root and be able to do anything you want with it.

That's what I ended up doing last night, although I had earlier simply just applied the 12B to 23C OTA package from completely stock 12B, then rooted using the new method. But even with my knowledge and experience I was having a heck of a time to get the correct img files flashed in order to be able to have both TWRP and a booting 23C at the same time until I did what I described.

Yup it is. Someone else thought the same thing with one of the previous two builds 23A & 23B, then they noticed they had that turned on in developer options, which anyone can do while on any official or leaked build (doesn't matter).
[Verizon LG G3] agh1701:
I believe you must install 12b aboot to make that work.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
[MENTION=884560]agh1701[/MENTION] is correct. See my message above. :)
[Verizon LG G3] bweN diorD:
you need the bumped kernel too, thats why you couldnt get it to work.
[Verizon LG G3] fr4nk1yn:

[Verizon LG G3] maddog241:
On 12b there is a dev option to enable bug report in power menu. It does not say comprehensive though and mine was never enabled by default.
[Verizon LG G3] gregcapps:
Yep. It is.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I was flashing [MENTION=1211160]HolyAngel[/MENTION]'s bumped 23C, assuming it was correctly bump'd; I know we had that issue with 23B once we got root. ? ? It was weird. I'll do a compare between what worked and what I was using before and possibly find out what da heck I did or didn't do.

[Verizon LG G3] bweN diorD:
should be simple as, dd aboot, b.boot, and twrp.

if it doesnt work, something didnt flash right, or some patches were introduced.
[Verizon LG G3] NegativeOne:
As I understand it, you are describing a process for going from any stock build to 23C, but effectively Jasmine 6.0 (since you're using all the images from Jasmine 6, that is). If that's the case, why can't you just flash Jasmine 6?

To attempt to answer my own question -- the difference effectively comes down to the additional scripts for init.d, debloating, etc that flashing Jasmine 6 would also execute?
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I choose not to flash JasmineROM because I like to debloat and tweak my own ROM beginning with it being fully stock. That being said, I fully respect [MENTION=5868929]hsbadr[/MENTION] and [MENTION=1211160]HolyAngel[/MENTION] and everyone else's efforts because they go above and beyond to do the work that they do. It's just much less work for me, personally, to go from 100% stock to where I like to be, rather than from someone else's trimmed and tweaked ROM.

I don't do anything magical, but I'm pretty AR (but less than some) about what I have on my devices.

The .img files from Jasmine 6 are fully stock 23C + the 12B aboot.img + bump'd kernel, so just the .img files alone get me and anyone else who wants to, to fully stock rootable via flashing SuperSU.zip. It's the other non-.img files inside his JasmineROM 6.0 zip which debloat and tweak things.

To say it another way, the .img files themselves - the ones in the JasmineROM 6.0 zip, are not debloated or tweaked in any way beyond the bumping and older version of aboot.img.
[Verizon LG G3] hsbadr:
To add to this... That's why I decided to use stock img's. The updater-script can't handle all correct permissions & SELinux context perfectly (i.e., 99% for most cases where minor issues might be hidden). However, the debloating or mod's in 6.0 don't affect functionality. Actually, you'd have to disable/remove these apps (e.g., VZW Mobile Security) for better performance. Anyway, enjoy your favorite taste ;)
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Yep, great move on your part with the .img files. I agree, I absolutely remove every Verizon app I can.
[Verizon LG G3] Jaybenosa:
I just got me a g3 and ran the new 1 click root successfully. I can't get twrp to flash from either flashify or the twrp app. How can I get twrp installed?
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
What LG Android build are you on? 12B? 23C? I don't want to assume anything even though this is the 23C thread. The easiest way is to be in 12B and use Flashify after rooting. If you're on 23A, B or C, you have too downgrade the bootloader (aboot.img) to 12B's and have the bump'd version of your kernel.

[Verizon LG G3] mopartonyg:
[MENTION=2560614]roirraW "edor" ehT[/MENTION] I also would like to try your route, but I can never get the script to work. Always says can not find file. If you have any tricks or any help I would greatly appreciate your advice.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
You have to follow [MENTION=5868929]hsbadr[/MENTION] 's directions exactly.

Extract all of the .img files from the JasmineROM 6.0 zip to the root of your internal storage. Not the MicroSD. Not in a folder.

Extract the installROM.sh script from the JasmineROM 5.0 zip to the same place as the .img files. Again, has to be in the root of internal storage.

Then follow [MENTION=5868929]hsbadr[/MENTION] 's directions exactly as in his JasmineROM 5.0 post regarding booting to TWRP, go into the Advanced menu and choose Terminal Command, then type each of the three commands one after the other. The first two won't produce any output besides the command itself and you have to use TWRP's keyboard to backspace over the each of the first two commands after you press Enter each time.

The third command will take approximately 10 minutes. You'll have to scroll down manually to see what progress it's made.

That's all besides flashing the latest SuperSU.zip from Chainefire's website after, if you want it to be rooted.

[Verizon LG G3] RMarkwald:
I tried 23C, and I thought it ran pretty smoothly, however, I had to go back to 12B.

Still had the issues with Google apps syncing...specifically Gmail and Inbox (Hangouts seemed okay, but I don't really use it ever). Didn't seem to matter if it was connected via wireless or not. I tried clearing Inbox/Gmail cache and data, and re-setup the apps. Odd thing is it would randomly work, but no rhyme or reason why it would/wouldn't. I read somewhere that it could be related to the version of Google Play Services, so I cleared that cache too, and didn't seem to make a difference. Rebooted, wifi on/off, cache clearing, nothing I tried could make it work reliably for me.

Not sure if anyone else is still noticing this, but I just couldn't use it like that. Like I said, the build seemed much smoother for me, and I'm bummed that I had to go back.
[Verizon LG G3] NegativeOne:
On 23B I started experiencing something strange where I press the power button on my phone and the screen turns on, but it's black, with the navigation bar visible, but with some buttons disabled. I have no way to unlock the phone until I turn the screen back off and enter the knock code. After that it works, but sometimes my notifications in the notification shade will say "unlock phone to view private content" (or whatever the message is). This will go away if I lock and re-unlock the phone.

I was hoping it would go away on 23C, but it hasn't.

Anyone else experiencing this?
[Verizon LG G3] jgfan1972:
I experienced this as well. Except it was most of my apps that sync. I am going back as well, just need the time to do it. Hopefully this isn't the official version cause I wont be happy if it is.

[Verizon LG G3] hokiealumnus:
Seems like this build might be official OTA.

LG is going to have to deal with a boatload of people very angry about WiFi notifications not working...
[Verizon LG G3] RMarkwald:
I sincerely hope that they figure out the syncing of apps, for me it only seemed to be Google apps, making me think that Google Play Services was to blame...I guess we will see what happens.
[Verizon LG G3] hokiealumnus:
Well, that can be fixed if you're rooted. Both SkyDragon and Jasmine have implemented fixes without any action necessary from the end user. If you really want the fully stock build, you can root and use script manager to fix it. It's not an issue for those that know what they're doing at this point...but most people that take an OTA update aren't going to have a clue how to do that.
[Verizon LG G3] RMarkwald:
I can handle that on my G3, but I'm hands-off on the wife's...a lesson learned the hard way many times. :)

But I may have to since it'll be nothing but complaining if the sync issues happen for her if/when 23C becomes official, and I'll never hear the end of it.
