[LG G Flex 2] MazdaGTI:
Today was same answer, not plan to unlock bootloader. Then I writed back and asked what was happened with Android keyword against Win and iOs "open source!". So will wait answer and let know about what they answer. I had choice take g4 or gf2 and my choice was gf2. If still answer will be no, then next question will how can I change my phone to g4 without loos money or make hard work to make it happen. Don't wanna sell and buy when reasone is lg who work against Android primary line open source!
[LG G Flex 2] kutulu32:
Dont bother , keep gflex 2. Only the european int version of g4 has the option of unlocking bootloader. Lg g4 has a far better camera but in performance gflex 2 is much better.

Normally gflex 2 should have been the flagship of 2015. Lg prefered g4 for some reason

Maybe all the negative reviews about sd 810 throttling caused that.

In real life the throttling problem especially with 5.1.1 is not that bad.

But i suggest rooting and debloating for maximum performance.
[LG G Flex 2] MazdaGTI:
I have gf2 also h955 international, I live in Nort/East Europe next to Finland and Sweden in Estonia. My Motorola Razr Maxx XT910 was regioned to Sweden and g4 what our sellers offer are H815 Europe versions.

Today was no answer but I will make new email and invite all gf2 owners make same. Let´s bomb developer@lge.com and ask after no answer, we wanna change our phones to European H814 G4 because locked bootloader is against Android principle "open source"!
[LG G Flex 2] Ace42:
I think we should all spam them about BL unlock everyday. I have a few email accounts I use, so I'll appear as a different person.

[LG G Flex 2] Sergykm:
I think maybe they unlock boot only for international version as LG G4. No hope for ATT...but only ATT has 3GB RAM. And I ordered ATT from eBay for fantastic price. Three month ago att version costs 847$ in my country))

So can anybody get us template of letter to LG. I will write them.

How he do this with LG G3? http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/orig-development/bump-unlock-lg-g3-twrp-d852-d852g-f400-t2900614

Maybe he can do it for our device? [MENTION=4654107]Sj12345[/MENTION] what do you think about it?
[LG G Flex 2] Sj12345:
Bump! Exploit was fixed with Lollipop :crying:

G3 users can use bump! because they can downgrade the LP bootloader to KK bootloader and then bump'd
[LG G Flex 2] Sergykm:
bad news...so without KK Rom we can't bump it. Our hope is only that LG unlock it, but it's so small hope.
[LG G Flex 2] syaoranlii:
Maybe it's a stupid question, but, can,t this be used to help unlocking the original G Flex? As it,s still running KitKat?

No answers so far, not from Android, LG Development or LG Baltic.
[LG G Flex 2] MazdaGTI:
Had constructive call with LG Baltic, now need make mail for them and they will start work with LG developers to get for us open bootloader. Please all contact with own region LG and start push from that way with "open source" mind. Thats our last hope as I see.
[LG G Flex 2] kutulu32:
We must "pressure" them very hard. i totally agree with you .
[LG G Flex 2] pelelademadera:
make a template to follow and bomb their mails...

[LG G Flex 2] Sj12345:
cool, the guys from LGViet got the bootloader unlock for G4.... hopefully we can port that unlock our lg g flex 2, only one problem it only works with v0 bootloaders

So ATT and Sprint users.... with antirollback v1......

Actually what version does LG give the phone during repairs?

they sent mine with 5.1.1x
[LG G Flex 2] Ace42:
Too bad we can't request 5.0.1. I guess the only thing left is to wait, or sell the phone now & buy a new flex. :p

[LG G Flex 2] pelelademadera:
someone check that in adb logcat at boot?

the phone check only 5 files...

maybe it do the same with the others that adb cannot see.

I extract the /firmware folder to check it...

Maybe we cannot unlock it, but we can hack it

[LG G Flex 2] Mr.Nice.ba:
Can we pay someone to unlock bootloader, create some AOSP ROM? I think combo of this hardware with clean android ROM will be stunning!?
[LG G Flex 2] koukas:
I think its at least embarassing for LG after paying for a

Flagship not letting us play with it. I wont buy an LG

product again.. At least with other brands we had decent

Replies for our problems.
[LG G Flex 2] crnkoj:
Not really.
[LG G Flex 2] Mr.Nice.ba:
This is the answer from LG , I received mail a few moments ago:

We are sorry to inform you that the LG G Flex 2 does not supports unlocking the bootloader.

The LG G Flex 2 was developed without regard to the bootloader unlock and there is no plan to support it.

We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause.

So only way is to hack it, bypass or whatever. Is there any developer on xda willing to do this?
[LG G Flex 2] mNiosu:
No, no one can unlock a bootloader without a tool from the manufacturer. It can't be hacked like the root permission.

Be assured if it was possible someone would have done it by now. So we are stuck with official LG ROMs and root only.
[LG G Flex 2] meangreenie:
If LG continue this policy they better make their phones very cheap or no one will buy them in the future.
[LG G Flex 2] wolfgart:
it's really bad decision from LG. As Bad is knows his Development Team and Forum, the most bad and unuseful mobile team on the Scene .

I really think this is the end for LG mobile products ....
[LG G Flex 2] xantanion:
Except of course back of my old droid that were bootloader locked and had safestrap so you could still do custom roms but I'm guessing that somehow been patched by now so we can't
[LG G Flex 2] Mr.Nice.ba:
Main problem is how to flash custom recovery? This can not be done without unlocked bootloader?
[LG G Flex 2] wolfgart:
it needs unsigned boot.img to flash custom recovery.

Can someone of us open a Bounty thread to collect money for some Dev able to try to unlock ?
[LG G Flex 2] Mr.Nice.ba:
I am willing to pay to see some aosp rom on this phone. Is there any way to create ROM as kdz and flash with LG Flash tools, or something like that? FlashFire?

What is option under developer options: ENABLE OEM UNLOCK?
[LG G Flex 2] hallucinate:
I'd also happily contribute $ (or time) to dev efforts towards unlocking our LG G FLEX 2. Since these things are selling pretty cheaply lately I imagine there will be an uptake in adoption of this device.
[LG G Flex 2] Alex_XV6700:
Enable OEM unlock is used on LGs to unlock BL and allow to fastboot unlock the device using an Unlock.bin or just the FASTBOOT OEM UNLOCK command.

But in our case its just there bcs LG included it, it does absolutely nothing.
[LG G Flex 2] dbizzy:

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mactaite06:
I have the htc one m9 still factory settings no flashed roms. When I am on a call and get a text, I can open the text but the keyboard will not pop up to let me respond unless I hang up the call. Is this normal or do i have a glitch?

I had no problems with my htc one s texting while on a phone call.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] computerslayer:
What's the carrier? I know that some (Verizon, in particular) used to have difficulty doing data/MMS during a call.

I've got a developer edition of the M9 on AT&T's network and was able to make a call & send a text (SMS) during the call, so I don't think it's a phone issue.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mactaite06:
The carrier is T-Mobile.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] computerslayer:
To the best of my knowledge, GSM carriers like T-Mobile (and AT&T) have no problems calling & texting simultaneously. Sounds like a software issue. Can you reproduce the problem?
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mactaite06:
I got it to work now. Thanks for your help. I first tried disabling newer apps I downloaded but that didn't work. Restart didn't help also so I just had to reset the phone to factory. Now I can text during a call. Hopefully it doesn't happen again.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] computerslayer:
I've had issues with Android glitching systemwide due to bad apps. Notably, I found that the orientation sensor gets bugged with some of the xposed modules. I didn't want to go through the apps one by one, so a factory reset was my solution too.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Drunknasty:
I am a little confused. I have been trying to get WM6 on my T-mobile Wizard and actually got TNT 1.1 loaded and was working fine. I found that I could no longer view my contacts. The page would appear and then as quickly as it appeared it disappeared.

So I figured, I at least got it this far. I will just reload this rom and see if perhaps something did load right. Well after the reload. The phone boots up to the splash screen with IPL\SPL numbers and just sits. NOTHING.

I left it there for like 2 hours and still nothing. But I can still get into the BootLoader.

My questions to you gurus is:

Is the phone fubared?

Can I do some kind of master reset?

Why would it tell me "Invalid Vendor ID" when trying to flash the orginal T-mobile rom?

Are there any tools that can help me out? Paid\free?

Please help!!! Seriously! Please HELP!!!

Very much appreciated.

Thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] its right:
if your device is G3, unlocking is required to flash any rom, before upgrade your device, it is recommended to flash an official WM5.0 rom (in your case T-Mobile rom) with IPL and SPL 2.xx then flash again.

in general there are many probabilities for your issue.

((Where is TNT1.1?? did you mean 1.0?? :D))
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Drunknasty:
My Bad meant 1.0

So to get it straight.... I will need to unlock my phone each time?

Oh and to correct myself again, when flashing with the T-mobile ROM it says UPGRADE ONLY. And the read me file says its the wrong RUU. But it is the same file from Tmobile I used when I first got the phone. But I will try again.

Are there any other suggestions?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] kegobeer:
You need to read the "how to flash" sticky.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Drunknasty:
I did. I am not any expert or anything but I believe the phone is unlocked already since I once had WM6 on my phone. The real issue I am having is that it wont boot past the splash screen after flashing.

And that is true when re following the steps in guide. After flashing to the button rom it will not boot past the splash screen.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] jwzg:
Try another ROM.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] golfernutnflorida:
Sounds like you need the "Wizard Love" rom. I dont have the link handy but I am sure someone else does.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Drunknasty:
Already got it. Thanks I am trying to load it now. But the only thing is that the last time it failed and I can understand what the error says. I know the number is 300 but can read the language.

But I will let you guys know when this load completes.

Thanks again for all the assistance.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Drunknasty:
No worky worky. The load completed and then boots the splash screen shows and then stays there.

Any ideas?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] TheWizzard2203:
Try to remove the battery and let it out for at least half an hour. Then put it back in and see what it does then.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Drunknasty:
I thought the same thing too. So when it got done last night, out of frustration, I removed the battery and left it there to wait on when I get off work today. I will report back on what happens.

Again I would like to thank you guys for helping me. I really do appreciate it!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] praneetsrivastav:

Ok I did that and it gave me ERROR 296: UPGRADE ONLY

Then it tells me that the NBF file cannot be used for my PDA Phone. Please get newer NBF file.

Is there any way I can get the Tmobile splash and IPL\SPL number back to original, it doesnt need to boot all the way into WCE but atleast show the same numbers and splash during boot up?

Or any other way to get this thing to work?

Thanks guys

BTW it is a HTC Wizard from T-mobile.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Madcap180:
If you are getting an error 300 you need a newer rom update utility, and regardless if your phone is a G3 or G4 it needs to be unlocked before you flash any rom.. LOAD a OFFICIAL cingular ROM onto your device before going any further, then unlock your phone either via www.imei-check.com or through some of the tools offered here...

[Galaxy S 4 General] DenisF:
Spent a buttload of time trying to find this info on the internets, it seems like every method required root or other warranty-voiding methods, this one (which iv'e stumbled upon on a foreign website) works without any tinkering at all, very easy to do.

Say my device is currently on CSC:PTR (carrier) on a rom that also contains the non-carrier CSC:ILO, which i wanted to switch to.

If I burn any rom that has PTR the device will stay on that particular CSC.

However if you install a rom that doesn't have the current CSC in it, the device's setting will reset to the rom's default.

(BEFORE DOING ANYTHING PLEASE BACKUP YOUR FILES AND SETTINGS, CHANGING ROMS AND CSC WIPES ALL OF YOUR DATA)

Here's how I did it:

1) Backup your stuff

2) Boot into recovery and do a full wipe

3) Wait for the device to boot

At this stage the device is running my target rom I9500XXUHOC5 but with CSC:PTR

4) Download a similar-version firmware that surely does not contain your current CSC, I downloaded firmware I9500ZSUHOC2 which defaults to CSC:BRI (taiwan)

5) Turn off the device, Boot in Download mode

6) Bring up Odin, load the new rom in AP and make sure that only "auto reboot" and "f. reset time" are checked

7) Click Start, go make coffee

8) One the device finished burning and booting, reboot back into recovery

9) Do a full wipe, reboot, drink cup of coffee from step 7

Now device booted up with CSC:BRI (or whatever default CSC of the rom you just installed)

10) Once the device finishes booting, turn it off, boot in Download mode

11) Bring up Odin, now load the rom with the CSC that you actually want, in my case it was I9500XXUHOC5 with default CSC:ILO

12) Make sure only "auto reboot" and "f. reset time" are selected, click Start

13) Wait for it to finish and boot up, continue drinking coffee

14) Turn it off and start in Recovery

15) Do a full Wipe and reboot

Congratz! I am now running CSC:ILO, without ROOT, without triggering Knox, keeping my "official" status and my warranty

(Note that most of the wipes can probably be skipped, It just felt somewhat "cleaner" to do it like that)

This exact method worked for me on a stock S4 9500 with Lollipop 5.0.1, I imagine it also works on KitKat/JellyBean and other devices

Hope this helps.

[Galaxy S 4 General] :
Man, that's just great :good: I tried it on dad's N7100 aaaand it's worked! Thank you!
[Galaxy S 4 General] DenisF:
You're most welcome! Glad to hear this helped! :)

Guess I have my answer now; this method works on other devices and older firmwares awell. :D
[Galaxy S 4 General] marlonsamuels:
i lost my backup no more csc changing :(
[Galaxy S 4 General] Boda Elshteef:
So I think you meant to install two different android....... The first that can be for any country and the second one that for the country I want..... Is that right? :confused:
[Galaxy S 4 General] DenisF:
Yep, one completely different and then the one you actually want to use
[Galaxy S 4 General] tom_car:
I want to go from UFN (Carrier, Argentina) to ARO (Argentina, no carrier). I first flash, for example SER (Russia), and the ARO. Is that right?

Two questions:

1) Will i be able to update via OTA and KIES after this with the new CSC?

2) How risky is flashing with ODIN if i don't have an EFS backup?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 General] GoNz0:
Always find installing the one I want and doing 2 factory resets works for me.
[Galaxy S 4 General] DenisF:
Yeah that's the general idea. if both UFN and ARO are in the same firmware - first thing flash something that has neither like SER or SAE and then go ARO.

1) ofcourse, this method doesn't root or temper with /system or anything of that sort.. you are 100% stock at all times, OTA remains as long as you use official FW

2) I have personally flashed using Odin i believe over 50 times using various phones, none of them ever bricked, im very confident that as long as you follow the normal Odin directions - nothing bad will happen

Ofcourse, as always; your mileage may vary. don't blame me if your phone bursts in divine flames :silly:
[Galaxy S 4 General] :
Hi.

This method is not working anymore I think. Because it caused my S4 to work on opposite. Last year, Samsung didn't release official Lollipop for Turkey. And I upgraded to Russia Lollipop a that does not contain TUR CSC code. When the Turkey Lollipop released, I installed it and the device confused and set the CSC code to default of OJV, KSA which is Saudi Arabia. I had to rollback to 4.4.2 and root using kingroot and changed CSC to TUR and flashed Turkey Lollipop and that's it! I got the TUR CSC on LP.
[Galaxy S 4 General] krasCGQ:
At previous, I installed SER firmware because official Lollipop isn't released yet on my country and the CSC become SER. I flashed OLB firmware, and the phone was confused and instead changed the CSC code to XXV, not XSE (where my phone should).

Next time I flashed ARO firmware, where I intended to stay on Latin American one, and again, the phone was confused and instead changed the CSC to TTT. How pity.

Sent from my GT-I9500
[Galaxy S 4 General] myrunes:
The idea itself is nice but for some reason it gives me FAIL on my phone whenever I try to reflash with a different CSC. I downloaded the correct version, data wipe + cache wipe. It gives me FAIL in ODIN and gets stuck in Recovery Mode. I got back to Download Mode and reflashed my own CSC. No fails.

I'm currently on XEF (Open France). I tried 2 different CSCs which are not in my available CSC list: COA (Cosmote Romania) and DBT (Open Germany). None of them are in my available CSC list. I guess I have to root my phone and just get it over with.
[Galaxy S 4 General] NERO76:
this is not real. iwant aro one that was "argentina" but every time iaflashed is going to "UPO" paraguay. no matter wich rom i installed. i explain what i do first ARO to BTU, BTU to ARO and then ARO to ARO that i want ARO "argentina" and nothing happened. of course with this tutorial.

To change the csc with the odin which I have to add the csc in the option AP or in the option CSC?

I tried to search for info but only come up with the tool on here that is depreciated. I have bluestacks 9.27.5408 rooted and titanium backup root. But some of the apps seen in the trebuchet all apps list aren't shown in titanium backup. Or if they are they aren't recognizable as them. These are the following: app sync, bluestacks charts, and gamepop-home. As far as I know I don't need these. Also I don't know if there is anything else I should remove that is not seen in the all apps but is installed. Thank you for any help and advice.
