I've updated to 24B from KitKat and at first I thought all of my issues were resolved... now my hangouts still sync in a timely manner, but my Gmail doesn't seem to be syncing at all, whether on or off WiFi... factory reset in my future? I've already tried clearing the cache from recovery. I checked under my Sync settings and Gmail is checked...Any other ideas?
[Verizon LG G3] mopartonyg:
I had to uninstall gmail and then reinstall it to get sync before.

Sorry about that screen shot. I was flashing and OTAing so much yesterday I forgot I'm back on 23C.
[Verizon LG G3] Scorp123:
That's the same baseband I have now... So, there is no new modem for 24b? That's literally the only thing I want from this, new better modem. None of the lollipop modems have worked well with my device. It feels like I'm back on 3g with downloads barely pushing past 3mbps

I force updated to 23A. How do I go about getting on this current update?
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Use LG Flash Tool 2014 to flash the 23C KDZ, then take the OTA. Assuming you've got a Verizon SIM in the phone.
[Verizon LG G3] lexluthor:
23c KDZ will be destructive and is a clean install, right? And then still no way to get root once ota to 24b, right?
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Correct on both counts. The KDZ flashed via CSE mode (recommended) will also wipe your internal storage, and no, no root yet on 24B.

Edit: And Kneel before SOD!!! ;)
[Verizon LG G3] TheLoonyRebel:
Does anyone know at this point if 24B comes with any kind of improved modem over 23C?
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
It comes with a different modem. Someone else who has kept 24B on their phone will have to answer as far as quality.
[Verizon LG G3] DGolom:

Seems we jumped the gun a bit guys...the software status says modified, but there is no SuperSu binary installed. Sorry to say we're not rooted yet, so no partitions can be pulled. :(

On the plus side, WiFi sync is indeed fixed, so yay for that. I'll just stick on this build or now I suppose and keep fingers crossed a root method will be found.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Caught me just in time. I had just started the flash process but LG Flash Tool 2014 hadn't opened the COM port in my phone's Download mode yet. :D Thanks for the heads up. Yeah, it would be modified due to the files being copied over to the temporary spot, I think.

I am confused. posts 181 and 182 here: http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/general/guide-root-method-lg-devices-t3129197/page19

state that root has worked and apps asking for root have been given permission.
[Verizon LG G3] AJCazz901:
Not sure what happened in your case, but the method did work for me. SuperSU installed properly and all my apps asking for root permissions are working.
[Verizon LG G3] hokiealumnus:
Not sure what to say. I've tried twice and the binaries aren't installed. :(
[Verizon LG G3] quadjacks:
So all these apps that have asked for and have been granted are a figment of my imagination? Oh and just to solidify that I do indeed have root, check out my taskbar mods by G3 Tweakbox.

The way I achieved root from Jasmine 23c was to revert back to 12B update all the way up, then use previously mentioned root method.
[Verizon LG G3] hokiealumnus:
Man, people on this forum take umbrage so easily; it's like dealing with a bunch of teenagers that are just waiting to be offended. I was relaying my experience, not calling you a liar. Calm down, please.

I used the 23C KDZ and updated. I'll try this build again and if that doesn't work, I'll give the 12B method a try. Thanks for sharing, that hopefully helps troubleshoot.
[Verizon LG G3] quadjacks:
Dude toughen up a lil bit, it's not that serious!
[Verizon LG G3] AJCazz901:
If it helps at all, I went down to 10B and took OTA updates up from there.
[Verizon LG G3] hokiealumnus:
Ironically, that was my entire point.

Ok, that's two that started pre-23C. I'll give the 12B method a try now to avoid at least one of the updates.

Thanks guys.

EDIT - 12B installing.

EDIT II - Initial lollipop upgrade (23C unless I'm mistaken) installing.

EDIT III - 24B update downloading.

EDIT IV - 24B up, trying root.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Okay thank you! I'll give it a try. I thought that method was essentially the same as the one-click root script, so I didn't think it would matter to try it.

Hmmmm! I guess I'll go ahead to 12B. Interesting! If I go the 12B route, I might go ahead try the one-click root script GUI v1.3 again after OTAing to 24B and see what that gets me.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Ugh, I hate the 12B->23C OTA resulting in the WIFI being stuck trying to turn on but never succeeding, and can't turn it off either, until doing a Factory Reset. Nothing like waiting through the bloated app update process twice!
[Verizon LG G3] hokiealumnus:
12B -> 23C -> 24B worked like a charm! I'm rooted and LG restore started. As soon as that's done, I'll grab the images. Thanks for the tip [MENTION=876904]quadjacks[/MENTION] & [MENTION=5313866]AJCazz901[/MENTION] !

EDIT - For clarity, I KDZ'ed to 12B. Then I let it manually OTA via software update on the phone, downloading from Verizon and installing incrementally. I did not use ActivityLauncher to install the tot files.

EDIT II - Boot & Modem are uploaded. System is zipping up, to be uploaded when it's done. Uploading that one will take a while.
[Verizon LG G3] Edde3d:
I've been trolling this thread since it was started. Good to hear some have gained root access.

[Verizon LG G3] Scorp123:
Uploaded? Where? As a flashable zip? I've been dying for the 24b modem
[Verizon LG G3] hokiealumnus:
Negative, as a .img file. If you know how to install one using the terminal you're welcome to it, but I won't be making a flashable zip. These are for a dev (HolyAngel) to grab and make a new SkyDragon. You can get the modem img here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347772908

System is uploading now but will take forever and a day thanks to good ol' TWC.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
That root also worked when I manually OTA'd from 12B to 23C_01 using Activity Launcher and the already downloaded OTA file. Wanted to make sure people know that's an option for anyone who needs to.

Coming from 23A...

I need to flash 23C with LG Flash tool, which wipes all data, then let the OTA update to 24B?

Nothing special I need to do to preserve IMEI?

I just download 23C KDZ, Load into LG Flash tool folder, Flash, let OS load, Download OTA of 24B, install 24B, let OS load, DONE.

missing any steps? any special downloads other than 23C KDZ and Flash tool?

Thanks all
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
If you want to be rooted, you have to flash the 12B KDZ, OTA to 23C, then OTA to 24B, then root using the alternate "new" root method (not the one-click root script but kindof like it).

IMEI is on you. Random things cause that to sometimes vanish. Doesn't normally during a KDZ flash, but it has happened. Look up [MENTION=2684188]autoprime[/MENTION] 's or [MENTION=1109155]codefire[/MENTION] (I think) G3 EFS Backup IF you're rooted and have TWRP flashed, or are going to.

[Verizon LG G3] matty032:
After working fine at home all day Saturday, I had the WiFi sync problem again Sunday. And Hangouts calls also stopped coming through. Since it had worked all afternoon Friday at work, where my ISP has no IPv6, I went into my home router and changed it from Tunnel 6to4, to disabled. Tunnel 6to4 worked before the Friday update. That seemed to get it working again. Now that could have been a temporary Google problem, but seems strange it stared working after disabling the tunnel.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Worth a try to Factory Reset if you hadn't already since getting the OTA.
[Verizon LG G3] matty032:
Yeah, you may be right. With the LG backup its not too bad to reset.

Perhaps one of you guys could tell us TI Backup users why we would want to use LG Backup instead? I read "quicker" and I drool...
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Two words. Lightning quick, at least to/from internal storage (I always do any kind of backup to internal storage then move it manually to external storage later).

Four more words. Never any quirks (yet).

I first used it on 12B to clean flash 23A/B/C. It sold me. Wish my VK810.4G Verizon LG G Pad 8.3 had it too. Hello again from 3rd "Bulldog" Brigade, 1st Armored Division 1987-1988.
[Verizon LG G3] hokiealumnus:
Battery life on 24B is better than 23C ever was for me, even with SkyDragon kernel. Seems they did a fair bit of optimizing.
[Verizon LG G3] iBolski:
Yup, since I haven't rooted since going to LP, I haven't used TiBu and I feel a little guilty about that. But, if I do need to backup, it's nice to have LG Backup as a "backup" (no pun intended) plan and it works. It's how I was able to restore my apps after I did a TOT flash back to 10b to accept the OTA all the way to 23c and it was nice to have this. Didn't even know I had it until I did a search. At least that way, I can restore my apps with settings (games are very important in this regard).

That's why TiBu was so nice - backup my app settings and data and restore them, but it requires root. LG Backup doesn't require root. Of course, if I have to backup everything and restore it under a different ROM, I'll have to root first and then backup with TiBu. That's where TiBu shines. I've used it to restore my downloaded apps from each Android phone I've migrated from and never had an issue (unless of course the app wasn't compatible with my new phone). That is exactly where TiBu is a godsend, but of course, you have to be able to root your old and your new phone, which is the only drawback.
[Verizon LG G3] SirSynonymous:
Alrighty. Im not going to root, just want stock 24b. So ill download 23C KDZ, flash it with lg flash tool, download/install 24b OTA, wipe device and reboot.

Hopefully all goes well.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Should go smooth as butter, I've already done that at least half a dozen times. :)
[Verizon LG G3] lexluthor:
So does LG Backup backup more than Titanium does? I don't back up system apps typically with Titanium and then any system app loses data on a new install. Also, things like custom ringtones and many system settings get lost after a wipe. I've found it takes me quite sometime to get back to where I was when I go through a wipe even with all my appdata restored by Titanium.

LG Backup will make this a lot easier? What exactly does it back up? All apps, appdata and system data? Files on internal storage too?

And dumbest question of the day.....when you refer to LG Backup, you mean settings->backup and reset->LG Backup service? That will backup all appdata as well? It doesn't need user root because it's a built in system app?
[Verizon LG G3] gregcapps:
Big question is have they patched the ability to downgrade firmware?
[Verizon LG G3] quadjacks:
NO... I've downgraded and back up again several times for testing!
[Verizon LG G3] SirSynonymous:
Back when I used to root and use cyanogen (2009-2013) I would wipe before the fresh install and after the fresh install, is that not pushed upon users these days, just wiping after the clean install will suffice? Just hesitant as I haven't been part of the modding community since 2013. If its as easy as force updating 23A, than I am sure i'm fine doing it.
[Verizon LG G3] quadjacks:
Oh wow, 2009... FYI things have evolved tremendously in the past 3 years. But NO, you should wipe BEFORE. Not sure about after though!
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Last two questions first: yes and yes. Lots of questions. Just take a look at it, it will answer your other questions.

Are you talking about the OTA or JasmineROM? For the OTA, it's really senseless to Factory Reset before. Just take the OTA, then if you want Factory Reset after. For a ROM, do however you like best. Before, after, both before and after. Will it make a difference when you wipe on this device? Not likely. On some devices it mattered more than others. Won't hurt anything, though and I do both before and after sometimes.

Flash JasmineROM 8.0 in order to get the right combinations of bootloader and bump'd kernel. You might even be able to dirty flash it since you'll be replacing the system with almost the exact same thing.

It was the exact same way with 23C. In order to have TWRP and 23C both working you have to have a certain bootloader and kernel combination.

[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
1. I don't know.

2. I haven't had the experience you're having. Are you backing up to internal storage or to MicroSD card? I would choose internal storage. If you chose MicroSD card, what format is it in?
[Verizon LG G3] lexluthor:
Internal and I have plenty of space. If I backup to the external, it says it can't support files over 4GB, so it won't do it.

[Verizon LG G3] iBolski:
Sometimes, it takes awhile for your phone to pick up an OTA. In the case of the 24B, it just came out so they push the updates out in batches, so your phone may not have been flagged yet for the OTA. All the other OTAs should show up immediately since those have already been pushed out months ago.

You just have to be patient.
[Verizon LG G3] lexluthor:
I don't think so. After I went back to 12B, I still couldn't get 23C via OTA. Plus, check for updates worked for 24B last week when it came out on my phone.

Anyhow, I didn't want to have to wait to setup my phone so I just went to Jasmine v8 which is based on 24b. Finishing setting up now.

Still curious to find out what happened with not being offered the OTAs though.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:

[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
It won't until the KDZ is available, which could be any time. I'm just saying that I've been checking at least once a day and so far, even though my phone gets the 24B OTA just fine, the assistant says my phone is up to date. Once the KDZ is available, the assistant will recognize that 24B is the latest.
[Verizon LG G3] iBolski:
Okay, something is definitely up. At work, I connect to our WiFi (which uses PEAP and MSCHAPV2 phase 2 authentication). Before the 24b upgrade, 23c worked fine connecting to it.Never had an issue.

Now, if I'm connected to it and leave and then come back, it says it's connected (status bar icon shows a normal WiFi connection) but I can't get anywhere. I have to turn off WiFi and then turn it back on again to get the WiFi connection to work correctly.

I've wiped cache and rebooted but that hasn't fixed it. This wasn't a problem under 23c. I don't have this problem with my WiFi at home, just at work. Not sure if the phase 2 authentication is possibly causing an issue now? I guess my next step is to do a FDR and see what happens then.
