def some progress... fixed the sdcard thing... now a prob with the firmware loading... but its getting farther than it ever did and not nearly as many erorrs
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Yay, good news!
[G3 General] derrick101:
Yay so ****ing happy
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
it's looking good guys... there are a few missing files i found also... was working on it this morning before work... def looking up... taking my daughter to a carnival tonight, but I'll be working on it after that... I'll keep you posted
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
I wonder, did your daughter have fun, and any new developments?
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
lol... yes she did! i has to go thru the list of blobs last night, one by one, because it seems some very important files were not copied automatically... had to check the list, then go through my device and actually copy the files over manually. By then I was wiped out, but will be working on it after work again.
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
If this ROM works, I will feel like landing on the moon
[G3 General] derrick101:
I bit the bullet and sold my vigor, i'll be leaving the XDA forums, I hope that you get it to work for everyone else that has to put up with stock. I'll let dameonzane know to not send me his extra phone
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
That's unfortunate, what phone do you plan on getting
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
good for you lol... I'm almost to that stage... but I'm very stubborn and really want to build this rom... was busy last night, but I'm trying...
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Wait, Dirty, why doesn't XDA recognize you as a Dev?
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
because we don't have a working device tree yet... that's why we dont have our own forum... just a thread...
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Ah
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Any new updates?
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
not yet... weekends are busy for me... but i have an early day today, and don't have my daughter till later tonight.. i had a boot.img build running this morning when i left.. for some reason it's having a problem with the firmware loading... not sure why yet... but everything else seems to be loading correctly... so if i can figure out why it's doing this, i think it will boot...
[G3 General] Ions87l:
Well guys I'm officially done with the vigor as well. Mine decided it was going to levitate into the toilet and take a swim. I dried it out in rice and it was to far gone to even be worth repairing. Thanks for all the help I've been given but I'm done with LG now. I'm still going to faithfully check this page every day. And if the ROM makes the phone worth it I'll go on eBay and get another for 40 bucks
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Another person done with LG. They don't have a very good track record. What do you plan on getting?
[G3 General] Ions87l:
I'm not 100% done with LG. I'm either gonna stick with my 6P or im thinking about the G5 I'm an audiophile so I want to try out the DAC module.
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
well today may be the day i also get rid of this phone... the screen is cracked and had been acting really screwy lately.. i dunno guys... this may not ever see a custom rom...
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Well that's a shame
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
I take it as this phone is Officially dead. Better go looking for a new phone.
[G3 General] planetz1988:
Right. Sadness. First and last foray into lg.
[G3 General] timcolley75:
say it ain't so..... we've been waiting so (im)patiently and all!? oh well i guess as with most of us stuck with stock, I've also already got another device was just hoping there would be some bling for this little phone. it the had potential of being something better than it is... thank you for all your hard work
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
i still have it and am still working on it... i think it was April 1st yesterday lol
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
You dirty mother****er. If only I picked that up.
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
i just noticed that it was actually the second LOL
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
OK, with no more jokes, has anything special happened?
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
haven't had much time this weekend... got my kid and worked the bar Sunday night too... but I'll be home tonight... it seems there is something minor I'm missing that is causing major problems... it prov would boot if not for these drivers it's looking for... I'm also getting some security denials which is related to SELinux stuff, and don't know why because it's set to permissive... marshmallow made big changes in the way sdcard stuff is done (you can actually use an external sd card as an extension of internal) thru the system... they are not set up the same as any earlier android at boot time... but I'm working on it...
[G3 General] derrick101:
I switched back to iPhone, I use all apple devices and services to run my business and got myself the iPhone SE, I switched to lg because Apple hadn't made a smaller phone, I loved my 5s its the perfect size. I hope that anyone who still is being tortured by this phone can get further lol. I have heard that the G5 is causing an uproar because its coated in plastic and they are molded just my 2 cents but hey not really big on lg
[G3 General] RootSuperSU:
I still have mine but my wife jus uses it really now to play her games on. I got me a Boost Moto E for $40 at Walmart last week and its got TWRP and custom roms so it may be cheap but it has enough support jus to mess wit but jus putting that out there for anyone looking for a cheap good phone wit support
[G3 General] SuPeRmega01:
Very helpful

Inviato dal mio LG-D855 utilizzando Tapatalk
[G3 General] planetz1988:
I bought two of these new as replacement for our s3's. Wish i had waited to buy something else. Lol. If we get cm we can move some other roms over to use with this lg. The sd card changes he is fighting is no joke. If you format sd to internal in mm you cant even find that **** with a root explorer.
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
What exactly is the nature of the SD glitch
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
will work on it

it's not really a glitch... in marshmallow, you can use your sd card as an extension of your internal ram, or you can use it as an sd card... there are just different ways to start the service at boot time...

i haven't been able to work on it for a few days... busy busy busy... and i have my daughter on the weekends.. but i will be working on it after she goes to bed...
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Was anything going on for anybody?
[G3 General] planetz1988:
I bought chromecast today for the tv in my kids playroom. For when i play video games. Kinda exicted after some of the reading ive done about the device. I got it so there was no desktop or laptop connected to tv for kids to destroy. Using my old galaxy s3 running octos for control of chromecast. I have a 6 and 5 year old girls and a 2year old son. Felt very uplifting to put laptop back in bag and not in their reach. Has anyone who owns the lgd725 tried removing any of the priv_app folder lg bloatware apps ? Or noticed system funkiness when using wifi and bluetooth at same time ? Or random reboots when watching a video and device switches orientation during ?
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Am I the only 1 here excited for Dark Souls III?
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
New Progress?
[G3 General] EvilJezuzz:
Is the Vigor dead in the water? I have recently rooted and got TWRP running but thats all thats running. The phone will only boot to twrp. It refuses to boot system. I must have made a wrong turn somewhere and hopefully I can save it and restore stock and start over, but im new at this. Any advice?
[G3 General] planetz1988:
You atnt ot sprint ? If att i could link you a backup of my device. Backup is just after i got root, twrp installed. Could try using it.

---------- Post added at 02:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:50 PM ----------

There is a stock tot for this device att or sprint. You will need the lg flashtool and correct dll. Read first post on this thread and good luck
[G3 General] EvilJezuzz:
Sprint. I noticed the resources and backups on OP just waiting for my chance to have an hour or two on the computer undisturbed so I can attempt to work out the kinks.

After root i used flashify and the TWRP 3.0 provided in this thread. Thats where it all went wrong.
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
if it boots to TWRP you prob flashed it to the boot partition... try flashing this image to the boot partition with twrp... select install, then hit the image button at the bottom, and select the image...

sorry for the lack of develop,ment lately guys... i just have so much going on right now... family in hospital, friends in hospital, and ive had me daughter every day lately... but i will be working on it this weekend for sure....
[G3 General] EvilJezuzz:
Happy to report the img and instruction provided worked, confirmed rooted, but I'm unable to boot recovery now. I tried a reboot manager and when booting recovery I get this on the LG screen

[710] fastboot_unit()

[810] USB init ept @ 0xfff4000

[830] udc_start()

Then, nothing. It just locks up there. Going to do some more research. Im sure this is something I should know but as I said before, I'm new at this and teaching myself.

---------- Post added at 09:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 AM ----------

Ok, scratch that last post. I re- flashed twrp with flashify (the right way this time) and everything seems to be in order. Both hardware booting and the boot manager app works for all boot options.

Still no custom roms for the g3 vigor? Or am I wrong and just haven't looked hard enough.
[G3 General] planetz1988:
Correct no roms yet. Dirtyhewr is brewing some cm13 love though from i gather its been nothing but a pain in his rear. Wish him luck.
[G3 General] EvilJezuzz:
Awesome!
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
I do too.
[G3 General] teephart:
Network unlock

please anybody that can help with steps to unlock my LS885 vigor sprint, got it from ebay
[G3 General] EvilJezuzz:
What exactly are you trying to unlock? The Sim?
[G3 General] teephart:
i want to unlock the phone, so i can use international SIM CARD with it.

am not based in the US, I have bricked the phone trying to edit the build.prop

i am have a LG LS885 ZV6.
[G3 General] planetz1988:
Sounds like you should read the op. Put device back to sprint stock. Sprint or a third party unlocking service are your only options .
[G3 General] EvilJezuzz:
A quick google search took me here. It may help. My g3 vigor was unlocked when I got it so Im unsure.

http://gsmunlockhub.com/unlock/LG/G3-Vigor
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
The SIM card in this device is for nothing more than LTE.

---------- Post added at 09:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:25 PM ----------

well all, the weekend is here... my daughter is out of town... i have no plans... so lets hope i can get this rom booting!
[G3 General] EvilJezuzz:
Best of luck we're all "rooting" for you! [emoji106]
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Not funny
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
How's everyone's weekend so far?
[G3 General] EvilJezuzz:
So far so good. Just been hanging around the house with my son. I don't go back to work until Tuesday so I have a nice weekend ahead. How about yourself?
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Just playing some Dark Souls III
[G3 General] planetz1988:
Burned limbs and leaves all day. Other than picking up my 2 girls from their great- grandparents. Sold and shipped a Toshiba laptop I got my wife almost last year that I have used more than her by far. Only took a 50$ loss on year old laptop. Was ok with that. About to play some destiny pvp as i wont get a new console til this one burns up. I dropped my vigor. Small crack near sensors in "gorilla glass" with the super thick screen protector on. And case. There goes my amazon buyback plan b.
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Does anyone here have Dark Souls 3 on Xbox One
[G3 General] planetz1988:
Regardless of whether or not topic of thread is active at time. Taskmaster2946 will you comment after the summer update for the box1 and review os. Ive been putting off box1 as so far i like the old 360 interface more. I have a pc. I dont need a media center. Hoping update really unifies. I want to ditch having a pc and console on same ding dang tv.
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Dirty, any new developments?
[G3 General] EvilJezuzz:
Dirtyhewr, are you still having trouble with the sdcard issue?
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
A bit of a newbie here. I have a Galaxy s5, but my friend has an ATT G3 Vigor.

He is running KitKat Rooted, and would like to update to and root lollipop. He also wants twrp so I can make him a ROM.

How can I go about this? Does the bootloader need to be unlocked, and if so, how?

Thanks in advance

Note: I'm not a newbie to this, but I'm used to Samsung devices.
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
TWRP is on the front page
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
How do I install it on his device
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Use Flashify, it's like a normal phone
[G3 General] planetz1988:
Read the first post. All there.
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
one more thing does the bootloader need to be unlocked and how
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Not sure, anyone here know?
[G3 General] EvilJezuzz:
Flashify. Flash twrp 3.0 to image. Confirmed working on my sprint g3 vigor
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
Any bootloader unlock needed
[G3 General] EvilJezuzz:
I didn't have to do anything but root, flash, and boot.
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
Ok he's on rooted KitKat and wants Rooted lollipop how can we update
[G3 General] EvilJezuzz:
I can't help you on the front. Mine is running kitkat too.
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
Did you ever try to update
[G3 General] EvilJezuzz:
Haven't touched it since I got it rooted and booting twrp. Waiting on dirt to finish cm13 before I go further
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
Cm13 for the Vigor?
[G3 General] EvilJezuzz:
Yes, dirty is supposedly brewing something up
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
if this works on the att model... holy crap...

EDIT: Where can I find the thread for this
[G3 General] planetz1988:
You are in it kinda. Lol if cm for our device ends up working we should be getting our own development thread. Until then, Welcome to the vigors last hope community.
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
yea i feel bad for my friend he loves rooting and romming and bought this thinking it was a normal g3
[G3 General] EvilJezuzz:
More common mistake than you'd think actually
[G3 General] emkay5775:
I need an apk urgently

Hey guys. While messing with titanium backup, I accidentally deleted the lgsettings.apk. Would anyone be able to do me a favor and send me that apk? I haven't been able to find it online. Thanks

[G3 General] emkay5775:
Thank you so much! You just saved my phone. Thank you again
[G3 General] planetz1988:
Your welcome. As long as it works. If not. Sorry. Let us know. Try again ?
[G3 General] emkay5775:
It worked fine. Just put in privapp, set permissions, reboot, and installed.
[G3 General] planetz1988:
Glad to hear. I have galaxy gear watch working with my vigor. Those apks werent easy to get working correctly. How bad did device lock up with lg settings missing ?
[G3 General] emkay5775:
A lot of features were unavailable... Widgets crashed and couldn't place them. I had to install the stock settings, but it was very restricted
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
Friend just installed TWRP 3 on his LG-D725. Any ROMs working yet?
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
No, but dirtyhewr is working on a CM13 ROM, if you know anyone who knows how to make ROMs, it would help.
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
I know how to make Roms, and have made em for the s5, but don't have a base.

---------- Post added at 08:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:00 PM ----------

Oh yea and do you know if the PR firmware can be updated to lollipop?
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Not sure, everyone here is running KitKat
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
There a reason for that
[G3 General] EvilJezuzz:
Kitkat was the vigor last update?
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
Oh

All this time I'd thought there was lollipop for it
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Has the ROM started booting yet?
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
The bootloader is locked... Any images flashed need to be bumped to bypass lg security

---------- Post added at 03:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:30 AM ----------

Att Does have lolli

---------- Post added at 03:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:33 AM ----------

I've had very little time lately... I actually have a boot.img on my device i haven't tested yet because i haven't had time to flash it, then restore... I know it sux guys...

Just alot going on in my life right now... I throw a build together when i get a chance, but I'm just exhausted by the end of the day... I'll try to keep yall posted...

---------- Post added at 03:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:38 AM ----------

ATT does have lollipop... Should be able to update in the system update area... You have to have the stock recovery in order to take an update, and you will lose root... Not sure if there is an exploit for lolli for this device to root it again...

There are no rons for this device because it has no device tree... Except the one I'm working on... It's not as simple as "making him a ROM" for sure... There is a lot to overcome with this device...
[G3 General] planetz1988:
A word of warning to all. The att tot on first page is for a g3 beat att. The .kdz works fine for the vigor other than no lte. Figured id let everyone know.
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Any updates from usability?
[G3 General] planetz1988:
Not really. Brightness slider instead of toggle. Seems more responsive. 980mb of 4 gig taken up in stead of 3gig of 4 gig on emulated storage. Nowhere near the amount og lg or atnt apps preloaded as well.

---------- Post added at 01:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:17 AM ----------

And i cant seem to get data to work right period.
[G3 General] planetz1988:
Could i talk anyone using the att variant to link me a screenshot of the default apn settings? Wanna try manual input of apn see if it helps.

Edit. According to att specs apn is right. Im half thinking the beat kdz is to blame. Not sure if i should try flashing the vigor radio over the beats. Or if anyone has access to that. Shiza.
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
hey all... just an update... i am actively working on cm13 again... redid the device tree, again... ran a build last night, but no boot... big error at the beginning im trying to figure out... soooo... try to be patient as you have been... im also going to run a hanmerhead build, as when compiling the stock rom, it gets compiled as hammerhead... who knows... maybe it will work... back later when i get out of work...
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
Thanks for the hard work! Hope you're able to get it to boot :D
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Anything new?
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
Don't think so.
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
not yet... i am currently running a build for a "hammerhead" version of CM, which is what the stock rom gets compiled as.... i am also downloading the source for the AT&T stock Lollipop... with some tinkering, i may be able to get it to work with the Sprint version... for some damned reason, i cant get CM to boot... i may try compiling stock AOSP later, also...

im working on it, tho...
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Sprint doesn't have lollipop?
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
no... because sprint sux ass
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
Be careful saying that as AT&T is now the only carrier that voluntarily locks bootloaders still
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
my bootloader is locked... and can't be unlocked... i dont understand what u mean...
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
ok all there might be some hope... i have a build of a rom called MaxiCM running right now... it's basically CM with a twist on it... they have a working ROM for the jagnm device which is exactly our device, with the only thing different is it has krait CPU's, and ours has the cortex-a7...

plus i actually got some help a while back from the lead developer on a few things... basically getting his blessing for a port...

i don't know if this will boot either, but the recovery built fine and works... so that's a plus... been building for an hour so should be done soon... I'll keep y'all posted... I'm staying up until it's done so i can test it...
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
Yeah, let's get this running tonight people!
[G3 General] planetz1988:
Is there a radio difference between the jagnm and jagc ? After using the att tot my build product is jagnm.
[G3 General] Taskmaste2946:
So did the ROM boot?
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
He's got an AOSP rom running! Quick, get excited!

---------- Post added at 11:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:14 AM ----------

Even if it runs tonight I doubt it will work on ATT and Sprint while being good enough for a daily driver.
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
yes

---------- Post added at 12:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:29 PM ----------

i do not have a rom running at all yet... there were some errors... i sent an email to the developer to si hopefully i can figure it out tonight...
[G3 General] planetz1988:
Got my data working ! Not good lte speeds but not mobile network disconnected either.

Full 4g. Had to delete default apn and input att apn details / save. Reboot. Choose that apn. Seems ok now.

Any new developments?
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
hey all...

still working on it... damned graphics drivers are giving me a hard time...

trying different vendor configs to see what happens... unfortunately this requires a total build every time (about 4 hours)...

but I'm still working on it...

in the meantime, i got a notice of excessive traffic on the Dropbox links of mine in the OP... (the TWRP files)...

so, here are some new links....

TWRP2.8.7.0 - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4Clk8CFT6u8bm1ucmlpRm5GTEE/view?usp=drivesdk

TWRP3.0 - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4Clk8CFT6u8NUNQeFhHejlubEE/view?usp=drivesdk

I'll keep you guys posted... have my daughter until later today, so that slows things down a bit, but I'm trying guys...
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
That's my point.
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
[MENTION=5369574]dirtyhewr[/MENTION] Anything yet?
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
not yet... trying out various vendor files and configs... throwing errors.. which come from the kernel config... it's abitch trying to figure it out... I'll be working on it again later tonite

i haven't had much time lately... i work ten hours, then I'm doing a side job after work for another 5... so I'm usually wiped out at the end of the day

also, I'm going to try to get in touch with a major dev, dastin1015 - total badass dev - on here i used to chat with when i had my epic 4g... every time i post logs on the dev chat node, it gets ignored

[MENTION=5369574]dirtyhewr[/MENTION] I'm kinda curious why we can't just run the normal g3 cm13...
[G3 General] planetz1988:
The reg g3 has a different mp camera in back and front compared to the vigor. Its screen size is bigger. It came in 16 or 32 gig with 2 or 3 gigs of ram. Its just different then our device. Ive thought about trying a rom built for the g3 beat but havent braved it yet.
[G3 General] dirtyhewr:
TOTALLY different device... totally different hardware... if i were a dev, it would be up and running right now...

but I'm not... I've learned everything as i go... tonight i will update my github and put all the current stuff i an using on it... that way, basically anyone that has downloaded the current Android source can have a crack at it if they want...

if i had more time, i would prob have it running right now... but sadly, i don't...
[G3 General] Lightn1ng:
So you don't need to know any programming to do this? :D
