Will the OP method work if I'm on stock VS98613B ?

I'm a newbie to the VS986 + this forum, so any pointers in the right direction of rooting VS98613B greatly appreciated. :)
[Verizon LG G4] woozzy101:
I'm on VS986 (Verizon) and rooted with 13B. But stuck in a bootloop though.

Anyone have a 13B KDZ for VS986 or a link to it? Thanks! :)
[Verizon LG G4] LASERWOLF452:
if u have any issues like the download link no longer suported and all i can provide you the files, as long you are on 10a or 11a it should work, if you are on 11a just do the part 2 of the video part one is not needed if u are already on 11a
[Verizon LG G4] woozzy101:
Get the 13B OTA update and then root that. You will thank me later :)

Update to 13B using OTA update. Then you can flash 13B rooted image using the following instructions.

Check out this forum if you want to download a pre-rooted 13B image

http://xdaforums.com/verizon-g4/general/vs98613b-saved-image-rooted-t3258794

Once you download or inject your own root into a 13B image, click on the following link and follow ALL the directions of "Step 3 ->Root" to root your phone to 13B

http://xdaforums.com/g4/general/lg-g4-100-root-success-directives-root-t3180586

If you want to use your own 13B image to inject root, you can use the link and do Steps 1 thru 3.

Good luck and remember, ALWAYS keep a stock image OR rooted image on your internals phone to re-flash if something goes bad. Especially until we get a 13B KDZ. Because as of right now, if you bootloop or something goes wrong and you do not have an image on your phones internal memory, you have a nice light paperweight. :(
[Verizon LG G4] Texas_T-Bolt:
Yeah I just got the 13B update had to freeze it until anyone had root info .... So I'm rooted on 11B is there away to update and still keep root instead of wiping my whole phone dead stock and update firmware? Or if I update firmware I know for fact I will loose root, but it won't wipe any of my stuff right? And second will this fix my proximity sensor as far as the update?
[Verizon LG G4] divineBliss:
Updating to 13B involves flashing over your system partition, so you would lose any system partition apps/mods, but all your non-system apps and data will remain unchanged.

If you flash a pre-rooted 13B image, your phone will immediately be rooted.

Dunno about proximity sensor fix as I went box to 13B.
[Verizon LG G4] woozzy101:
Someone (Autoprime I think) has just released a 13B KDZ! Yay

For those that have a paperweight, hopefully this gets them a functioning LG G4 :)

dumb qusetion, can i kdz 13b from 11a then follow these steps i got the rootedsystem image and system that someone uploaded here on xda
[Verizon LG G4] woozzy101:
If you are on 11A stock (non rooted), just take the OTA update and you will be on 13B. Then you can use that rootedsystem image to root your phone following all the directions on step 3 from the thread I linked earlier.
[Verizon LG G4] LASERWOLF452:
i am rooted thats y i asked if i can just KDZ the file then go to that post to get root for the 13b
[Verizon LG G4] LASERWOLF452:
oops i hit muti quot sorry
[Verizon LG G4] woozzy101:
I know the safe way would be to unroot your 11A, then take OTA update. Then flash 13b image. I'm not sure how the OTA upgrade works vs using the 13b KDZ. If the KDZ also updates the kernel/bootloader or not like the OTA update. I would play it safe and just unroot 11A, take OTA update and then flash the 13B rooted image.
[Verizon LG G4] Texas_T-Bolt:
So how would I flash the pre root 13 b if I don't have TWRP recovery what method do I used to flash the pre rooted B13? I read about ppl having problems with the proximity sensor cause of the glass screen covering up the sensor or what not but figure if the update would work this solutions...
[Verizon LG G4] woozzy101:
Procedure all depends on what software version you are on and if you are rooted or not. So, what software version are you on and are you rooted? :)

If you are on 11A stock, you can just do OTA update to 13b and then flash 13b rooted image.

If you are on 11A and rooted, you need to KDZ back to 11A stock, then take OTA update to 13b. Then flash 13b rooted image.

If you are on 13b stock, its real simple, just flash 13b rooted image and presto!

Check this thread for complete instructions on what to do depending on what you need to do.

I'm on 11A stock rooted. I got the OTA 13B I had freeze it just in case if it borked anything by updating it self. Im going to unfreeze the sofware update. So what I have to do is KDZ to unroot back to stock 11A then take the OTA 13B then flash the root img. Making sure I read this right.
[Verizon LG G4] woozzy101:
You got all the steps correct.

1. KDZ to 11A (can do click on the normal button when you do if you want to keep your files, but I would still back stuff up just incase)

2. Take OTA update. Might take a few hours to become available.

3. Lastly, follow all the directions in step 3 of the thread I linked.

Thread on KDZ directions. It is VERY important to KDZ the right verion. If you are on 11A, do 11A. Also, LG drivers are different if you are on Verizon, so there is that. But the instructions pretty much cover everything :)

Post 1 and 8 are the same file. Once you download, yup, extract the file. Then check the MD5 sum to make sure its all there if you want (Recommended). Then place that file on your phones internal storage. Straight in the root storage directory, not in any folders.

Once you have taken OTA update and are on stock 13b, just follow ALL Directions on Step 3 from the link below and you should be good to go with a rooted 13b phone. You should also already have the the right LG Drivers (Verizon is the only phone that uses different ones) installed and LG_Root downloaded and extracted.

Was setting up my device for a replacement ended up keeping it, Before I attempt anything, I want to make sure I'm not still rooted.

I currently wiped all storage options (including internal) Will I have to root my device again? Or is there another way to get twrp on the device? Maybe thru adb????
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NatusVincere:
To check if you are rooted you could use app like: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joeykrim.rootcheck&hl=en

or you could open up adb, enter adb shell (by writing adb shell) and asking for SU access

by writing: su

into the shell.

If you wiped internal, cache, data, you should still have root as you did not touch your system partition.

To install TWRP you can get it here: http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/orig-development/recovery-twrp-touch-recovery-2-8-2-0-t2966129

extract the downloaded zip, and flash with flashify or manually by entering the commands provided in the thread.

I get the message '/system/bin/sh: su: not found'
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NatusVincere:
Which means that you have no root access. You could confirm it with the app I recommended in post above or one of many apps available on google play for that.

To root your device again you could use: http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/general/guide-root-lg-firmwares-kitkat-lollipop-t3056951

how should i flash it. should i flash it using Fastboot method or TWRP directly ?

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanagawaben:
If you have TWRP then you must have unlocked the bootloader, which means your warranty is void.

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanagawaben:
Do you have the white splash screen? If you do I'd flash the black one back in TWRP, then at least it isn't immediately obvious the the boot loader is unlocked. Next, I'd fastboot flash back to the stock recovery for the firmware you are going to restore (you don't want to leave TWRP on there). Then wipe data and cache, put the firmware on your SD card renamed as MOFD_SDUPDATE, and boot into recovery to flash it.

"Open adb folder and Shift + right click > Open Command pomport Here (click on it)

On the adb cmd type adb reboot-bootloader

After you enter the fastboot/droid boot, on the adb cmd type fastboot flash recovery <Recovery Image File Name.img>

Example: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

After the recovery flash complete go to "recovery menu" and select on it, after you enter recovery navigate and select "update from adb"

And type on adb cmd adb sideload <Firmware File.zip>

Wait the for the process to complete the phone (~25min), if you have an auto reboot, you need to enter in the "boot loader" and select again "Recovery Mode"

you can now select "wipe data/factory reset" (~5min)

when is finish select "wipe cache partition" (~1min)

and for the end select "reboot system now"

The Boot process Will be Little Longer After This Process PLease Be Patient (~5min)

Finish!

Backup anything you want to keep and export it to PC to re-add it onto your phone later.

Download stock firmware here: http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZE551ML/UL-Z00A-WW-2.20.40.59-user.zip

Rename it to update.zip to make it easier for you. Put it in the same folder where your adb is located on PC.

http://www.mediafire.com/?afulultx06r70a4

Download latest stock recovery here.

Reboot your phone into bootloader. Open a command window where these files are located (shift+right click in Windows should open a context menu with open command window here option).

Flash the recovery: "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

Type that without quotes and press enter.

After it's finished, press volume down on phone til recovery option comes up then press power button.

Let the phone reboot. Eventually an error screen will pop up. When it does, hold down power button and press volume up. Release both buttons at the same time. If you did it correctly, recovery menu will now show up.

Choose apply update from adb sideload then from PC command window type "adb sideload update.zip" without quotes.

Then wait 10-20mins for it to finish. You'll be completely stock. Your data and internal storage will be formatted. That's why I said make backups first.

Hey There, I need to give my phone for replacement but I had unlocked the bootloader. how do I Re lock it ???

I bought a Z00A online just a few days ago, rooted it, unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP, and then CM12. All was perfect until I realized some hardware problems with the speaker. Also lately it doesn't boot up easily on pressing the power button. In fact every time I have to go to the bootloader and 'Normal Boot' from there. And even that doesn't happen all the time. I have installed the stock recovery, flashed back the black splashscreen, and also the stock-firmware through adb sideload successfully.

Now can someone tell me does flashing the stock firmware through adb sideload re-locks the bootloader or not ??

If no, what are my chances of getting a replacement ???
