[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsbighead:
Hi, first I own LG G3 D855 32gb with previously installed stock LL ANHD 8.3 rom with downgrading to KK rooting method. Today I decided to try fully root following guide from this threat given by [MENTION=5231281]topet2k12001[/MENTION] and after clean installing LL 20H KDZ file I root it with no problem and then I decided to follow guide for installing bump¨d TWRP and aboot.img from KK witch I extracted from latest 10N KK version, only thing I did deferent is that for flashing TWRP and boot.img I used Flashify from playstore and for aboot.img I used Android terminal with commands in guide from this threat. After flashing all and turning off phone then turning it on to enter TWRP it work so I can state that TWRP is working fine, no more error, even I restore my backup (system and data) of rom ANHD 8.3 (LL) I used before this and all is working flawlessly with almost full lollipop rom except aboot.img (KK).

If you do bother to read clearly it requires you to flash the android bootloader which is a risky process since download mode function, bootloader and recovery all depend on it

If not done properly you will brick your phone. So please do not risk it and just downgrade it properly with LG Flash Tool, it will save you so much time.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] topet2k12001:
Hi @itsbighead,

The "aboot.img" is the Bootloader (Android Bootloader).

The "sbl1.img" is the Secure Bootloader.

The "laf.img" is the Download Mode.

There are three (3) methods available in my thread:

1. "Kitkat Downgrade" method: this is the first method discovered/known to have custom recovery (TWRP) + root on LG G3 Android Lollipop

2. "No Downgrade" method: the reverse approach of the "Kitkat Downgrade" method

3. "Imageprep" method: it's nothing more than an automated script that combines the commands from the "No Downgrade" method. This is created to reduce the risk due to human error (typos, etc. when using the Terminal/Command Line)

The principle in the Kitkat Downgrade Method:

1. From a fully fresh/stock Kitkat, root the device

2. Install a "bump'd" (patched) custom recovery (TWRP)

3. Get a Lollipop Firmware and extract the following image files: system.img, modem.img, and boot.img

4. "Bump" (patch) the boot.img

5. Done

The principle in the No Downgrade Method:

1. From a fully fresh/stock Lollipop...

2. Get a Kitkat Firmware and extract the following image files: aboot.img, laf.img (some users nee to also download other image files like sbl1.img, rpm.img, tz.img, dbi.img, and persist.img)

3. Install a "bump'd" (patched) custom recovery (TWRP)

4. Get a Lollipop boot.img and "bump" (patch) it

5. Flash the "bump'd" boot.img, aboot.img, and laf.img

6. Done

The principle in the Imageprep Method:

1. Basically all the commands that need to be entered are automated in a script

2. Put the corresponding image files mentioned in the No Downgrade Method in the appropriate folders as per the instructions in Imageprep

3. Run the script

4. Done

So as you can see...either way, Kitkat Downgrade and No Downgrade have the same risks. The only difference is "which image files to flash", but essentially you are still flashing image files which, if done improperly, will definitely cause a "soft-brick". In any case, the problems are already anticipated and solutions already documented in the "Troubleshooting and Q&A" section of my thread.

EXTRA: as a matter of fact, it was one of your old posts that led me to understand all of these and therefore, led me to create a script. You are actually listed in the "Credits" section of my thread. :)

Hi I was wondering if it would be possible to unlock my bootloader and install twrp because my sprint lg g3 is already rooted successfully. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find a method aside from downgrading and I would like to feel safe in knowing that I have a backup. Installing a custom rom is in consideration also so you if you have any recommendations it'd be appreciated.

[P3600 General] dangerous_brain:
Hey guys.

I am having huge problems with my spv m700. Nothing will install on it (I've just loaded tom tom onto the sd card and it just does the installation little plingy noise and then nothing).

It won't even recognise there being a sim card in the slot when I put my dutch simcard in it. I have repeatedly auto and manually used the unlock program available here somewhere to absolutely no avail.

I'm getting to the end of my tether with the thing and am considering keeping my spv m2000 as that hasn't been any hassle at all since I've had that.

Is it my simcard is somehow not the correct standard for the M700? works fine in my m2000. And why would the phone not install tom tom?
[P3600 General] hh0829:
i have not had any problems with my m700, looks like you have problem with your phone (that is what i think), try to exchange it, explain what is wrong to the orange.

hh
[P3600 General] NeilM:
Did you buy it from Orange? If so, they should have supplied a new SIM card.

Your old M2000 SIM probably won't work in the M700, because the M700 is a 3G phone, and needs a USIM card, which has extra circuitry on it. A USIM will work fine on your old phone, so you could just ask Orange for a replacement SIM card.

Your SD card issues are something different- have you tried a different SD card in the M700, or the existing SD card in a PC card reader? This may narrow things down a bit.
[P3600 General] dangerous_brain:
OK I am thinking the problem must lie with the sim card itself. No I didn't purchase the phone from orange. I have an orange payg simcard and that registers no problems on orange NL. The UK based O2 card I have is recognised as a simcard but won't register on a network in holland. My mates new telefort simcard also won't register on a network but a 10 year old dutch sim card from my other mate works perfectly. Each time I swapped out sims I re-checked mine only to still find it completely unrecognised.

Update on Tom Tom. The version I have been trying to instal is tom tom 5 which this phone it appears doesn't like. The tom tom 5 navigator will not go past the maze page at initial instal. If I instal tom tom 5 mobile that works but it won't accept screen inputs and out of all the phone keys only 2 work so its un-navigable. I am waiting for delivery of a 4gb mini sd card now as my 512kb one isn't big enough for even the simplest of tom tom 6 installations.

I sold my spv m2000 today and maybe think I will regret that move. Especially as the guy thats bought it thinks he can install windows mobile 5 on it which was my main reason for moving phones along with thinking that the tom tom software I have would work.
[P3600 General] NeilM:
TomTom Navigator 5 will work on the P3600, but as with all WM5/WM6 installations, is a real pain to acheive. There are some tutorials on our website (see sig)

TomTom Mobile is for Smartphones, so won't work on PPC devices.

SIM cards: you need to get a USIM update from Orange (unless of course the M700 has been blocked for some reason?). You should also SIM unlock your M700, if it hasn't been already- all SPV Orange models are SIM locked to the Orange network.
[P3600 General] Maarten_0031:
Once your M700 works fine you will praise the day that you bought it. I've got it for almost a year now and it is the best PDA ever. I've now got it running on mun_RUs WM6 and it keeps getting better and better. HTC will have to come up with a pretty good replacement before I switch to another one.
[P3600 General] goodie:
All of the above!:D
[P3600 General] dangerous_brain:
Yeah I ran the unlock program on the phone. It says its unlocked but I don't think it is. I managed to get tom tom 5 to install by going into the 2577 folder and activating the files in there one by one and now tom tom works for me.

I have since returned to the UK. The UK orange simcard that would connect to orange NL will now not connect to orange UK. My O2 simcard will not connect to any network either. I will re-download the unlock file and re-unzip it in case I have a problem there and then re-use it. I am following the tutorial on the thread is there anything missing from the instructions? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=293957 I must be doing something wrong as loads of other people are getting good results with this program. How do I know if my simcard is a USIM?
[P3600 General] sickboy555:
I think the USIM issues is a red herring- unless you have a VERY old SIM then it should work with the handset- this is according to Vodafone.

This may sound really stupid, but are you sure you put the SIM in the right way round?

The first time I tried my Voda SIM with my unlocked Orange M700 it said "No SIM". I think I may have had it upside down....as later it just started working OK.
[P3600 General] dangerous_brain:
Yeah already thought of that. Thing is the lebara network card that isn't even recognised as being in the phone looks physically different to the other sims that are recognised. The only card that will log onto a network is the UK orange one which is now logging on and working(I had a netwrok setting wrong). The O2 sim keeps coming up with denied,searching. In manual network selection it also denies service and comes up with no service.

In short there are a couple of things I am unsure of. I've run it in manual as well.

1. Transfer SSPL/SSPL-TRIN.exe to your phone and run it

done and understood

2. Tri-color screen will appear

Yep

3. Disable activesync (file -> connection settings -> uncheck "allow USB connections")

This I don't understand and when I disable activesync my phone no longer communicates with the pc

4. Connect your phone to your computer using the USB lead.

When I do this with activesync disabled nothing happens so I have to reinstate activesync to continue

5. Run RUU/ROMUpgradeUtility.exe

done this

6. Follow the flashing process (Check the "I understand..." and "I completed..." boxes and update!)

and this

7. Allow your phone to reboot.

See now my phone doesn't reboot itself here I physically have to either press the power button or push the little button on the bottom

8. Transfer TRIN_Unlock_v1.exe program to your phone and run it

yeah can do this easy

9. Click the Unlock Button, select unlock option. Select if you want SIM/CID unlock.

and this

10. Click "Unlock!" and wait until process finishes.

yeah of course

11. When done, turn off your phone for 10 seconds and reboot after that.

OK maybe I don't have this reboot off to pat but I turn it off and then press that little button on the bottom with the stylus

Now I have tried this with an orange card in, with an O2 card in, with no card in and the result is always the same No joy. I am so clearly getting something wrong and its getting very frustrating.
[P3600 General] NeilM:
Can I ask where you got you phone from? Was it a new purchase from a supplier, or from Ebay etc?

The fact that a UK SIM works in NL, but nothing seems to work in UK, shows that the Radio does actually work, but not in all locations.

This could suggest that the phones IMEI number is being blocked for some reason- usually if the phone has been reported lost or stolen. Or the fact that the UK Orange SIM now seems to work may imply that the phone CID /SIM unlock didn't take properly.

It may be worth trying another unlocking tool. If you pop over to Modaco, their Trinity forum has a good unlocker which worked on my Orange M700
[P3600 General] dangerous_brain:
Yeah it was an ebay phone. Its being a right pain. I have tried completely unlocking the security using this guide http://wiki.spv-developers.com/HTC_Application_Unlock_Guide

Its not unlocking. I cannot edit the registry from a pc based application and it won't let me instal a reg edit program. I need to find an older than feb 06 rom file and try again. I am begining to think this phone is a dodgy one. How do I find out if its registered stolen?
[P3600 General] NeilM:
To find out about the phone's status, call Orange Customer Services (07973 123 150) and get them to check the IMEI number (Settings/Device Information/Identity Tab)

For the Super CID, you could try This app on Modaco. It seems pretty reliable. Once flashed, you can them apply any ROM image update.

Hi,

My quick penneth's worth:

I've had M2000 - pile of junk (real technical problems) compared with M5000 - great 'phone, great functionality - absolutely no technical problems.

M700 replicates the M5000 functionality, except with built-in GPS!

Absolutely the best 'phone ever, glad to agree to 18 month contract (as opposed to my usual rule of never agreeing to more than 12 months).

Everything about the M700 shouts out that it really has been thought about before production - right down to clear plastic covered paint as opposed to painted plastic.

Not the smallest of 'phones, but I believe that this is about as optimum as you will get size-wise if you want a screen to be useful for WM5/6.

You will not regret the move from M2000 - trust me.

[P3600 General] dangerous_brain:
Update. I got a new orange simcard put that in it and after the texts that orange sent it now also works with a uk vodafone simcard. It still doesn't even recognise either of my lebara cards as a simcard so I think there is a problem with that type of sim. I'll try another Dutch card in it when I get back there and see if that works.
[P3600 General] goodie:
2. Tri-color screen will appear when at this screen unplug usb then plug back in, windows should detect usb device (htc usb sync) as far as i can tell windows needs this driver installing to communicate outside of activesync!

this maybe for Vista only? i dont know? but worth a try!

if i am wrong someone please correct me
[P3600 General] dave the hampster:
I had a similar problem. After I installed a peice of SPB software to memory card - the phone side opf the PDA couldnt lock on to the network. It wouldn't work with any other SIM either!!

Orangre replaced the SIM just in case. However I ended up doing a hard reset.

I think the problem is the way that the M700 handles large memory cards. theres plenty of threads on that one!!

Once, after an install of TomTom - all my other folders were wiped on the card.

I'm now using SPB Backup and am making a copy of my memory card too.
[P3600 General] dangerous_brain:
I got it working in the end with persistence. I got a second phone I was so impressed with it. I then proceeded to fall off my bike and smash the first phone up. Broke the screen. When repairing it I managed to break the screens ribbon retaining clip and socket and then fried a power capacitor or something fitting the battery backwards so unless I can find a new main board I am up the creek with that phone.

I have been looking a lot in cracking a Mifare Classic 1k card that is used for a transportation system in sweden. The thing is that I've tried to find a way to us emy phone nfc reader but I can't get it to work.

I have now started to look for a recommended nfc reader and I find that ACR122U is the best one for the job, I also encountered another one which seems to be able to read the same cards (SCL3711). The question is, is SCL3711 compatible with "nfclib" and those programs or should I buy the ACR122U?

SCL3711 is compatible with libnfc as you can see in this matrix http://nfc-tools.org/index.php?title=Devices_compatibility_matrix and I can confirm to myself because I have one.
