I did the 10n OTA update when I first took the phone out of the box, where is the 10n kdz I couldn't find it in any of the threads when I was looking. Does that mean my bootstack is still native 10h? So, would the course of action be for me to update the bootstack to 10n, and definitely not do anything for 10h because of the new information out there about not flashing an older kdz? Where are the instructions for doing this in download mode? Unfortunately I don't have TWRP installed as I was just trying to get root completed first? Any help would be great. Thanks.

I just had to restore mine because someone mentioned that the N version was ok to install using the tmobile H command.... If you are on N, do not root... I guess we have to wait... in any case, watch this video, it will help:

I'm was running the att gooted 10g unrooted with super user with hopes of taking the new release but it didn't work. now my question and this is probably a nutty question but do I have to go through the entire process of rooting and then flashing the unrooted firmware or can I just go straight to the flashing of the unrooted 10g. I am not rooted however it must have left a fingerprint somewhere that att is finding.
[G4 General] mjspde:

Hi Guys,

I'm kinda confused about which .img to flash, I'm new to this method, till now I've always unlocked the bootloader, flashed CWM/TWRP and went from there...

i was following everything as you said. it all went well until the ports.bat file.

i can open a command window' and when i type "adb devices" i even see my LG G4 i connected and appear on the device list.

but when i try and open the ports.bat file its just showing an error

C:\ADB\LG_Root>reg query HKLM\hardware\devicemap\SERIALCOMM

ERROR: The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value.

C:\ADB\LG_Root>pause

Press any key to continue . . .

i try and remove the drivers...

uninstall

reinstall

tried different USB ports on my laptop...usb 2 ...usb 3...

even downloaded the SDK just to have all the various drivers install just in case..but all that wouldn't work.

any thoughts on what may help me with my issue ?

Return to Stock - AT&T H810 l - Can this method be used?

Hi Friends,

I successfully rooted on H810l (AT&T) with 0 issues. Per the recommendations of the process, I also backed up my Stock, Unrooted, .img file for restoration to Stock, if it were needed. Well, I might be moving on from this phone and need to return to stock. Can someone advise the exact steps/commands to return to stock using the unrooted .img file I backed up before pushing the rooted .img? And can you confirm that you did this successfully as well?

I would really appreciate it! Thank you!

As far as I know, every other method to attain root on a G4 so far implies unlocking your bootloader. At the current moment, the bootloader is not re-lock-able, which means once you touch it, you will NEVER be able to go back to stock even if you go to church every Sunday. In my opinion, people would like a reversible method as some have less money to spend than others so...

Is there anyway I can delete system.rooted.h81010g.img from my internal storage? I didn't pay attention and used att 10g to root my my 10e version phone. Of course I bricked it. So I got back to stock using the h8010pr rom. Now my system data is full. Factory reset or re flashing the h8010pr kdz doesn't fix it. I believe it is because that rooted Img file is still in the internal sd somewhere. How can I check? and if it is still there how do I delete it? Do I need to use adb and fastboot?

I can only access the "Firmware update" screen at the moment, so I can do everything EXCEPT "copy the file to the root directory"... I'm trying to root an ATT LG G4 formerly running H81010i. I flashed it with H81010g but now I get a security error "Authentication Failed #11" at the boot screen and it resets. It will go into download mode and I can use the send_commands window. I've tried the process several times, still get the error. Thought if I could push the rooted.system.h81010i.img file to the phone I might try it again and hope for better luck.

Re-posting this for your reference

I would recommend any and all to disable OTA before even rooting as I have been able to do so with success as posted here:http://xdaforums.com/g4/h...3#post61849763

Follow the instructions on the OP and this can be done before or after but*I would recommend before root*if possible.

Also per autoprime's instructions on post#2 I ran the following command prior to flashing the rooted system.img to backup my stock system.img in case I want to unroot one day, command as follows for F500, H811, H812, H818, H819, VS986, US991 only, other variants have the proper command to follow like I said on post#2 of this thread:

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 bs=8192 skip=65536 count=548352 of=/data/media/0/system.img

The stock system.img was then backed up on my computer as this command created a backup in the root of the internal SD.

This is billybob275's post and also the rooted system.img that made root possible as I was on VS986 10B still luckily since I was patient enough to see the progression of this thread.

Verizon vs986 10b image is ready. Running fine on my phone, but flash at your own risk. No exFat issues with a Samsung 128gb microSD, but I did take it out of the phone when I flashed the rooted image.

Download Link:*https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347782448

Command to run:
