[Gionee M2] style.xythe:
So.. I flashed gionee-v4s factory images (5.0.2) on my gionee m2 which is the 8gb version. both of them have the exact same specifications except for the screen size, and battery. i was thinking that it probably won't boot up either, but it did boot up. i got only a soft brick. i see a white display on all the time, which goes off after 30 seconds. i think this rom can be helpful to me for "porting" to m2 since the boot image is also mostly the same, the not same parts i am currently working on

(firmware i used: http://xdafirmware.com/gionee-v4s last one which is tagged Lollipop)

i know it is tough and i am sort of a beginner only, but what gives ;) i'm gonna try un-soft-bricking it

i do know that after removing the whitescreen there may be other issues like gps, wifi, camera, etc etc. but hey, my first priority is just booting it up!

Another topic i would like to mention is if we can port TWRP 2.8.x to our phone so that we can custom flash lollipop ROMs (because i believe we can!) and since it is touch based, and way better than CTR which we are currently using (?) as it is harder to navigate around it.

can anyone here help me with the soft brick part? i know that you guys are awesome :D

speaking as of right now, my gionee m2 is again running kitkat stock. will be lookin forward to hearin from ya mates :laugh:

:cool:

[Verizon LG G4] Dennisg34:
Well there's two different bounties because not always is the case that an unlocked BL is achieved. Most cases these days, it's only root which is why where's two different bounties. I would hope if the BL is unlocked accross all carriers that people would give their root bounties towards the devs. Sometimes is the base people just singlely want root and not to unlock their BL.

Warranty

I recently upgraded from an LG G2 T mobile to the LG G4 T mobile. When i had the G2 i don't believe i unlocked the bootloader to root. I used towelroot. And i was still able to restore completely to keep my warranty and such. So my question is with an unlocked bootloader can it be undone? Or does it immediately remove your warranty with no questions.

There is zero chance of that happening. That is the simple reality of these bounty efforts. If money matters, the dev who makes the exploit should just ask for $ for access to it. But these bounty efforts.... often end poorly as people don't follow through.

i think this is somekind of offtopic,

But another locked variant from Korean , the F500K is rooted today by Vietnamese Dev [MENTION=3160393]vungocmobile[/MENTION] from Lgviet.

Maybe he can help with other variants, too.

here's his topic

[Verizon LG G4] MicroMod777:
Somebody should contact that dev to post the G4 root method here on xda and start collecting the root bounty.

Edit.. He posted.... Sweet.
[Verizon LG G4] Dennisg34:
Long as he finds a way to root all variants that is the LMY47D build (which is what my bounty is for).
[Verizon LG G4] kmcphee:
Kpean model. Root
[Verizon LG G4] Dennisg34:
Well let's see if they can abide by my Requirements!

This may also put pressure on the other devs working on this:

Requirements:

1. Be the first person to create or find a method to achieve the following:

Exploiting a fully stock LMY47D build to get root and custom recoveries.

2. Make a post in this thread with the following:

Proving it works with appropriate photos and/or screenshots

Providing full step-by-step instructions for which anyone else can follow

3. Wait for at least one member to follow the same method and confirm it works the same on their fully stock device with LMY47D build

4. Claim your bounty via PM from donator(s)
[Verizon LG G4] phineous:
Put me down for $25 for root. PM me to collect and please take Bitcoin or Dashpay!

Not sure I want to unlock the bootloader yet since this phone seems to need a warranty.

Thanks!
[Verizon LG G4] Dennisg34:
I don't seek out people to pay their bounties, that's your own responsibility. You can ask the person who comes up with the root method if he'll take those forms of payment

Sent from my G4 using your mom
[Verizon LG G4] phineous:
I know. Just posting this info for the dev to make it easier for them to collect. I've read that many don't pay off on the bounties they've offered and I didn't want to be one of the deadbeats.

I'll be too busy playing with root to be bothered to put on pants, and we all know that you have to have pants on to pay with PayPal. You don't need pants to pay with Bitcoin, etc.

[Verizon LG G4] flamadiddle:
It looks like the method they released is still messier than they wanted it to be (more chance of bricking), and they're still working on getting all variants working, so I wouldn't say they were holding back at all. Just still in process and this other guy forced them to move a little bit quicker.
[Verizon LG G4] ThePhoneGeek:
So I no longer own the G4, I sold it a week ago but I committed to the bounty for root for $20. I paid that this morning but decided I could do a little more to support the great work and continued development for devices in general and upped to $40.

Thanks to all!
[Verizon LG G4] jcase:
Thank you.
[Verizon LG G4] cowsquad:
Exactly. They were just waiting. But I think the other guy got root first. He stated that his method might be universal
[Verizon LG G4] 20degrees:
The bounty should go to the other guy. He did it first...
[Verizon LG G4] flamadiddle:
But all he's posted so far is what jcase posted months ago: a video of proof. There's no root method available to us from him yet.

---------- Post added at 10:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:23 AM ----------

How quickly everyone forgets. They said they achieved root via multiple methods about a month ago, and that they were waiting until they had a really safe method with less chance of bricking. They also said they didn't want to release them too soon and have LG or carriers patch the exploits right away. The devs owe you/us nothing.
[Verizon LG G4] 20degrees:
Yet this other guy posts his thread and now these guys release theirs. All they wanted was more money, plain and simple. The 1st 2 posts in their root thread proves this.

They were afraid he'd soon update his thread and they'd lose out.

[Verizon LG G4] the_scotsman:

[Verizon LG G4] ThePhoneGeek:
The devs I paid my portion of the bounty to completed the requirements of the bounty first. Whether or not they had it and sat on for a couple weeks is not relevant. Nothing in the bounty requirement said anything about posting a video, but these guys did that first too. Also they've said for the last several weeks that the method they had originally was not suitable for most users here. Given the last couple of pages of comments I agree.

If they waited to release it so the bounty would be higher (which I don't believe they did) so what. Everyone here was free to try to develop a working method and then give it away if that's what they wanted. These guys also could have just concentrated on getting a playstore version that worked and charged for it.

Now can someone please for the love of God tell me how to stop OTA updates. We don't have the option in the AT&T version. I go to: Settings-General-About Phone-Update Center-Software Update... In "Software Update" it doesn't have a menu; you can only press "Update now", that's it, no options..

I can't find it in TiBu either... Help will be appreciated.
