I actually bought a New Lg V10 through an eBay seller but I bought through an PayPal invoice as eBay wouldn't let me but it, weird. But it showed up today and it is spotless not even micro scratches and plastic still on it. But I went to update it and it said it was rooted!? But it's on lollipop. Should I be glad it's rooted? I have rooted and flashed one phone years ago and enjoyed all the different roms. But I would've liked stock to get updates and also fingerprint scanner doesn't work. Why do you want it rooted so much? What can I do beneficial or fun with it rooted? I get an error when I power on that "teleyphone has stopped working" then goes away. If you were me and paid 250$ for an advertised brand new Lg v10 then got it and it was rooted would you keep it or return it? I'm just so confused and wondering what others would do?
[LG V10 General] Matrix3445:
Hi bro

For flashing LG V10 using LG flash tool 1.8, you said in your post that "1. Download Both Stock Image File & DLL file"

I found stock firmware for VS99026A but I couldn't find DLL file for LG V10 VS990 to download it!!

could you provide a direct link?

Thank you ...​

You really had to quote the whole first post?...

Really, have some sense...

---------- Post added at 12:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:11 PM ----------

To make a long story short, if you bought a supposed BRAND new phone, or should not be rooted or giving you weird error messages out of the box...

just ask for a full refund....I would start a PayPal dispute right away...
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
I have 5 days to return it but I got it yesterday and they're only open M-F. It is New. Still had all the plastic on metal sides. Its like someone bought it, rooted it and that's it. I get a dumb message when I power on the "unfortunately teleyphone has stopped" and fingerprint scanner doesn't work but other than that it's mint. I'm questioning keeping rooted lollipop (as I always use nova launcher prime anyway) or ***** n moan, pay to ship it back then wait a few weeks to get a NEW phone. I paid 250$ us. I really don't know much about root but I did get titanium backup pro a long time ago. Would you return it and get a Samsung galaxy s5 or galaxy note 3 new instead or keep it? I'm conflicted. I like it has 4gb ram and 64gb internal storage.

^^^ I'd really appreciate if others or anyone would weigh in and tell me what they would do about the situation.

[Guide] LG V10 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock) KDZ &amp; TOT Method

If the device came rooted im guessing it's a sprint device? Then yes return it. Unrooting it will result in the gsm unlock removed.
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
As another member said there's no point in quoting the entire first post.

You don't need a DLL file.. you use LGUP to flash the file.
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
H900. At&t. I'm not going to unroot it. I can live with it rooted and with no fingerprint scanner. I like the phone. I'm so conflicted.
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
[Guide] LG V10 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock) KDZ &amp; TOT Method

Reason I say is a lot of LG devices are sold as a model but are actually internally different and rooted to hide it.
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
Really! Wow that's f'd. Maybe that's why I get this stupid misspelled error when I turn it on. "Teleyphone" has stopped working. I hit ok and it runs fine. So in settings hardware info can be changed?
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
It also came in an AT&T box with the matching imei.
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
[Guide] LG V10 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock) KDZ &amp; TOT Method

Yeah. Editing the build.prop is simple. In software a person could make it show any model number. It could be truly the correct model. Did you buy it from someone who sells a lot of phones? If so it is possible.

It was a big problem with the G2s. That's when I first started seeing it happen.

When i googled "teleyphone" I see a lot about it being malware.
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
Yes I bought it from someone who sold like 50,000 phones, part and accessories and has a 99.1% score on eBay. Its a company called phonestoreusa
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
Sorry 155,000
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Yeah I'd prob return it. No reason for it to be rooted. I asked cause if it was just someone selling there old phone they could of left it rooted
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
Yea I'm going to contact them tomorrow by phone and explain I was misled and want a brand new one or get a refund and get some other phablet. Its just a hard decision as it truly is brand new. Just like someone turned it on rooted it got the teleyphone malware and sold it.
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Did you buy it "new"? Sorry if you brought that up already. It should instantly go back if sold as new
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
Here's the add. States "New".
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
And their store page lists Brand New
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Yeah instant return right there
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
I'm going to call them tomorrow and see what they want to do. Give me an actual brand new one or refund. Just sucks as I'll be out of a phone to send it back, wait for refund, then wait for new phone. I went a month to get this as my lg g3 screen fades black now. Going a day or two a out a phone sucks but going weeks and weeks is torture these days. I hope they have a new one because you can't find a 4gb ram w expandable 64gb system memory for 250$. I'd have to get like a used note 4 or 5 to get something similar.
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Changes are if you ask for a new they may send you the same kind of "new"
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
Yea they offered me a refund. If I install the latest stock Rom do you think it would get rid of the figerprint scanner not working and how can I tell what Rom they have on this? Also That teleyphone has stopped working I got it to stop when I turn on phone now but malwarebites still sees it and it's a Trojan. So flashing a Rom won't get rid of that would it? This really sucks as I was so excited to get this phone.
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Wouldn't know till you tried it. As we don't know if the phone is the model it even says it is. Also it's very common for the V10 to loose fingerprint functionality. Usually by either updating or hardware failure and only fix is usually a replacement.
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
Is it easy to flash a Rom on these? I saw you have a YouTube video n watched it and seemed confusing. I think that teleyphone malware was embedded somewhere in the Rom they installed. I looked really closely at the interior of phone w battery out and usually if someone unscrews the screws some of the black will be scratched on a screw somewhere n it doesn't look tampered with. And the sticker matches everything. I got that teleyphone malware to stop tell8ng me it stopped when I turn it on but not even titanium backup can get rid of it. I found the file in file manager and then deleted it plus deleted it in titanium and phone went black then showed an android on back with chest panel open and wires coming out. So that pretty much made me think it is embedded in Rom. So I pulled battery and it was back in titanium.
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
Idk what method to use to get the stock Rom you have up as there's 3 different ways. I have Lg bridge installed and lgup ver 1_ 14_ 3.msi. Then I looked for files in that storagecow and found these. Idk what I'm doing. This is a lot different than years back where I could download a Rom to sd card, go into recovery and flash as many as I wanted.
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
[Guide] LG V10 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock) KDZ &amp; TOT Method

You would use LGUP.

These are not custom roms like you put on an sd card and flash. These are factory stock firmwares.

And flash 20 or 21 it doesn't matter higher the newer.
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
So maybe my phones only rooted? I have no clue how to know if it even has a different Rom installed. It has kernel info in settings software info.
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
No clue since you don't know what was done or the reason why it was rooted in the first place.
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
Lol I give up. Thanks for all your help.
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Your welcome! But no one knows except the person that restored it/rooted it. You can attempt to flash a firmware but id send it back since your getting that refund. (Unless he told you to keep it)
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
I called him back and asked if he had any others that were brand new and he said he'd check inventory. I can't send it back then wait for the refund then order from somewhere else and wait for that phone to arrive. I can handle shipping it to him and he sending a new untampered one thatd only take a week or so. To ship this back and wait for refund to get back on card that it will take a over month as PayPal refunds take so slow. This phones great and I think someone just rooted it. For 250$ I can't find another brand new condition 4gb ram 64gb internal phone. Its snappy no lag. And everything works great. So I might keep

It if no other option. At least w root I got rid of all the AT&T bloat.
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
I have one more thing I found. I found Rom info in titanium backup. This is an AT&T stock factory rom right? So it's just the phone was rooted.
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
I contacted the seller today 2x and and sent an honest email how I can't afford another phone for a long time no $... On phone we discussed different opportunities. Refund or replacement. I said I will return for a replacement uprooted and he emailed return label. Then I finally found out why it was rooted. It's overstock and they get it all through the same place since its discontinued by carriers. He said they root the phones to get them easier unlock for any carrier. Now that I know this it makes total sense why my phones in mint condition and runs super fast no lag. I also read paypal hold refunds for 30 days so even if I did return it I couldn't have another phone for about 6 weeks. Now knowing the root reason, would you keep the device?
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Rooting the device has NOTHING to do with getting it unlocked. Unless it's a Sprint device. Ideally you should be unrooted when you GSM unlock your device.

[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
Hey dude. You were 100% right. I did the kdz marshmallow for AT&T. Flashed perfect but when reboot I'd get a message "vpn was closed or something" and when is delete an app it would reboot my phone. So I opened it up and it had a VERIZON mobo inside of a h900 shell! So that's why it was rooted and had an at&t Rom on it! I sent it back and got every penny returned. Now I'm gonna send them a nasty email as I think they should be banned for a fraudulent practice like that. I think now I'm going with a galaxy note 4 as I know galaxy's and can do much more with them. (as there weren't any good or special to me for the v10 because of boot loader lock and no reverting after marshmallow update. I think it was just that model. I think the LG g5 was different. And I had one for a little and liked that too. So it's a note 4 or g5. Where can I get a phone that's legit? Do you know of any reputable ebay sellers? I know xda uses swappa but they're more expensive than ebay. But I should've listened to you from ur 1st response. Would've save a lot of wasted time. I'm sorry.
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
[Guide] LG V10 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock) KDZ &amp; TOT Method

Swappa is the best place to know 100% for sure. Even some phone sellers on eBay may not actually know. I'd buy a G5 before I would a Note 4. The lag on the Note 4 drives me up the wall every time I pick one up when helping someone lol.

Thanks for coming back and confirming it was indeed not a AT&T model. It's sad that this happens :(
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
Who does that practice? China? Any other models I can get for 250-275 that youd recommed? Yea the g5 was a nice phone w expandable memory and 4gb ram. I don't want to go below 3. I'd actually get another v10 if I knew it wasn't fudged. That was a very snappy phone. No lag at all.
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Everyone. Even in the US. There usually bin phones or referbs replaced with various parts to make another phone.

I've seen some fair to good shape G5s go for around $165 ish which has me tempted to pick up one if it wasn't for my resent wisdom tooth extraction lol. Not really sure haven't really kept up except for having a G5 and a Xperia Z2 on my wish list. I think I seen someone post a sale for the V20 on eBay which was $299 but it may of been Sprint model though.
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
Yea I was also debating another g5. I've owned almost all the galaxy line s2,3,4,5,7 note 2, n 3. I figured 4 was my best bet as it looks like it has lots of roms to play with and 3gb ram w expandable mem. Never got a 6 model (no mem expansion) . N I've had LG g2,3,4,5 n now v10. The v10s are pretty cheap and I figured if I can find one untampered id get another a 4gb ram n 64gb mem plus great cameras. Idk.
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
Think I found an honest seller on eBay. Check this seller out. All brand new phones straight from at&t or whoever.
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Can't confirm. But no phone will come directly from AT&T unless your buying it from AT&T
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
No even discontinued overstock?

Flash from Verizon to Stock

Hi everyone, i'm a little bit confused here

i'd like to flash my Lg v10 Verizon VS990 ( Single SIM ) to Stock ROM, which firmware that i should download?

should i download the H961N10c firmware?

Thanks! :fingers-crossed:
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Why would you think you would needto flash an H961N firmware??? You'd brick your device...

If you have the VS990. You can only flash VS990 firmwares
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
You would follow the guide in the OP and use LGUP.
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Would never know till you ordered the phone to be completely sure.
[LG V10 General] gioarvdv:
Thank you, but LGUP does not recognise phone while running the bootloader. And after relocking bootloader i have not os neither recovery... Any thoughts?? Thanks again!
[LG V10 General] Ruziqu's:
So, there is no way that i can flash my v10 to stock?
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
If you flash a VS990 firmware.

hi guys, i am using F600L and yesterday i am update to nougat . But i am notice there is something problem with main camera, the camera became so dark . And i want to rollback to marshmallow, is it possible rollback using KDZ and LG flash tool 2014?
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
You would use LGUP and assuming there's no antirollback.
[LG V10 General] rnovta:
ah okay using LGUP, but choose which one? REFURBISH or UPGRADE? thanks a lot bro will try
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Refurbish. As it's wipes which is recommended
[LG V10 General] rnovta:
bro , i have install and open LGUP like step by step in the first page, but when i start the process , there is error

Error: 0x2000,

F600L20n_00_0718.kdz file does NOT support "REFURBISH" process

i have change the KDZ file with F600L20e_00_0216.kdz, but error is same

is there any other way , to downgrade ?
[LG V10 General] gioarvdv:
Issue resolved. Thank you all. How to: 1.relocked bootloader. 2. Enter in download mode. 3. Start LGUP. 4. Started with refurbish option but an error was coming up. 5. Tried upgrade option and worked fine.

P.S: before starting LGUP i installed and run UPPERCUT.

Thank you all again.
[LG V10 General] rnovta:
I want to try to downgrade my F600L using TOT with LG FLASHTOOL V1.8.1 but it need F600L.dll file

Where i can find F600.dll? i have searching in google and still cannot find it.

There is some source that we can use .dll inside LGUP folder common, but i have tried too, it doesnt work

Anyone can help me ? :crying:
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
A dll file is not needed as you use LGUP. Especially if the device is running MM you must use LGUP.
[LG V10 General] rnovta:
The device right now running Nougat, and i want to downgrade to MM

i have try REFURBISHED using LG UP but always error

Error: 0x2000,

F600L20n_00_0718.kdz file does NOT support "REFURBISH" process
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Try using upgrade , and or also use uppercut
[LG V10 General] rnovta:
i have tried both of them. Upgrade using uppercut when 14% always error so it doesnt work too

if i root and wipe using TWRP is it possible?
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Sadly it's most likely due to not being able to downgrade. Past a certain version Korean models are not able to downgrade from a few previous posts. It's not antirollback but it's something else that causes it. (Also happens with the Verizon variants of LG devices).

Well if there is root for 7.0. But I don't keep up with models and root. But I would doubt there is root available.
[LG V10 General] rnovta:
oh thats why i cant downgrade :crying::crying:

okay maybe for a while still stay with 7.0 until there is someone can downgrade the F600L

Thanks a lot bro with your reply
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
If it is indeed due to what I believe it is there won't ever be a solution to be able to downgrade it, other than having a phone that never upgraded past a certain point.

Your welcome!
[LG V10 General] nednerbish:
Everyone listen to Hylton. He knows his sh!t. And I would like to personally thank him for saving me from getting 2 "NIB" LG v10s off ebay. Idk how these sellers get these great ratings when they clearly deceive ppl. The 1st v10 I got the seller swore it was brand new straight from att. When I turned it on and went to update it said it can't because device is rooted. So I did some more investigative work and here (Idk if it's the manufacturer in China or Hong kong" had a Verizon interior with a at&t "shell" on top. If like most people don't know about rooting they'd never question it. So they root it them flash an at&t stock lolli image so it looks like you're getting a brand new v10. Got refunded and sent an email about their practices. So I found another seller and explained the situation I was just in and he promised all they do is open the box to unlock it and right back in box. Well I ordered it last weds and paid 25$ so they'll ship it that day. Of course I checked tracking info like every hour or two. And it didn't arrive at p.o. til Friday. 2 days later. So Instead of getting in Saturday I had to wait til mon with a 2 day guarantee. So I get it monday, open back and pop in battery. Straight into bootloop. Tried a few more times and nothing. It was shot. So within half an hour of getting it I walked it to the p.o. and sent it on it's way back. Ugh. Total nightmare. Well my wife, the loving woman she is said "hey you're getting 250$ back and I will pay the other 200 to pay off ur att next phone. I still owed 416$ on my lost galaxy s7 from last year. So to wrap it up I'm done w LG unless they come out with something mindblowing. I ended up getting a galaxy s8+. I'm so happy I got screwed by the ebay vendors as this phones a BEAST. So thank you AGAIN Hyelton! You saves my ass.

[LG V10 General] hyelton:
You can't due to antirollback you'd permanently brick your device

Hi, I was on H90010f lollipop 5.1.1 and wanted to upgrade to marshmallow. So I downloaded H90020j from your link and used LGUP to successfully flah it but now I'm getting google play services have stopped error constantly.

Can you please tell me what I'm doing wrong, and is there a way to get back to lollipop if marshmallow doesn't work.

This is my only phone
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Did you do a factory reset after flashing??

Or did you try clearing the cache for google play and google play services?

You can't downgrade due to antirollback.
[LG V10 General] MuhammadBilal:
Tried clearing cache and rebooting multiple times, then reflashed to rule out bad flashing.

Still same result. Trying resetting right now.

P.S I have also downloaded a kdz file from the same folder, but LG flashtool 2014 is getting stuck on error connecting with server

---------- Post added at 05:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:48 PM ----------

Factory resetted multiple times but no luck.

Can anyone who encountered this issue help me
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
"Cannot connect to server" is not an error. You drag that window out of the way. Its supposed to say that.

When the device is running MM or later you never should use the old flashtool. 1. It won't work, and 2 you can possibly perm brick your device as it won't warn you of antirollback if you flash an older firmware.

You should ALWAYS perform a factory reset after flashing a kdz or tot.

But the force close issue your having is very common on both the G4 and V10 after updating.
[LG V10 General] MuhammadBilal:
OK, is there any way to flash the kdz through LGUP, there is no option to select it.
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
You select the kdz as same as you would the tot. You may have to first select upgrade to be able to choose it.

I'd suggest performing the factory reset first.
[LG V10 General] MuhammadBilal:
Factory reset did not solve the issue, I'll charge the phone for a while then try LGUP.

Thank you very much for helping.
[LG V10 General] MuhammadBilal:
Flashed kdz with LGUP, then performed factory reset. LG VPN error pops up twice, and fingerprint and security option in settings cause the settings app to crash.

What can I do to get the fingerprint working at least?
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Only fix for that issue is a warranty replacement. That's a extremely common issue with the V10 AT&T model sadly
[LG V10 General] MuhammadBilal:
Is there any way to downgrade to lollipop or will it brick the device for sure?

I live in Pakistan and bought this second hand so no warranty of any kind.
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
You can attempt but only use LGUP. It's risky but if there's antirollback changes LGUP should stop you. But I'm sure 99% you won't be able to downgrade.
[LG V10 General] MuhammadBilal:
After reading through a lot of forums regarding my problem, it would seem my V10 is not H900 at all but another model somehow refurbished to look like this.

I'm not sure why it allowed flashing of at&t firmware at all. I'm going to take off the back tomorrow and check the model on the motherboard.
[LG V10 General] hyelton:
Which is also extremely common with buying devices used or referb.

Thing is you won't be able to flash any other firmware other than the one that's on it now. The only fix will still be a motherboard replacement.
