so I just flashed this rom with twrp as normal. Rebooted and that was that. Screen dosnt come on cant enter download mode or recovery no nothing. It vibrates and the LED light blinks blue and green... so umm... Is this Bricked? :crying: I'll add that the Phone does light up with a question mark when pluged into a PC with no battery...
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Did you flash the 35B bootstack as the instructions say?

Most, but not all people in your situation are able to solve it by going into Download mode despite the screen not showing anything. You can verify in Windows Device Manager if it's in Download mode if you can see the proper phone entry in the modem section.

You'll have to have the Verizon LG drivers installed before doing this. I recommend rebooting the PC after installing the drivers, then use the original cable and a USB 2.0 port.

The first time you plug the phone in, in Download mode, to a different USB port it can take up to 10 minutes to load the driver you previously installed.

If Device Manager shows it in Download mode, then use LG Flash Tool 2014 to flash the 10B KDZ and reroot work Stump, use TWRP Manager to install TWRP, then follow the directions to get this ROM installed.
[Verizon LG G3] 225719:
Your right! Just did its beep on connection to the PC I cant believe it! Now to see if it will flash. btw I did flash the 35B I was assuming that was what did me in lol
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Great, good to hear. Did you check in Device Manager, too, because the PC beeping doesn't necessarily mean anything.

This is, unless I'm forgetting, the first time I'm hearing of someone soft bricking their G3 when following the directions properly. The 35B bootstack doesn't normally cause problems unless someone flashes SkyDragon or JasmineROM after the bootstack, both of which contain an incomplete set of older (24B) partitions so they conflict with the 35B partitions that are left.
[Verizon LG G3] 225719:
This could be due to my phone. I had installed the Port of the Official MM from LG a week ago and things started to get weird over here. Calls stopped coming in and my data tho connected would only work for a few mins then I had to disable and re enable. I KDZ back to 12B and did the root with king root then twrp ect. but my calls still wouldn't come in. (which I thought KDZ re flashes EVERYTHING) After re flashing 24B and installing different roms I eventually got my calls back but the data issue remained, I was attempting this rom for ****s and giggles. I flashed the 35B first then the rom and after power down it was soft bricked. Starting to think there is something wrong with my G3 that goes beyond a KDZ to fix sadly and I haven't had a working GPS in over a year lol
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Yep, KDZs and TOTs flash everything. Maybe try TOT instead just to see if it helps. Long shot but...

Not under warranty any more? LG paid for shipping AND for packaging both ways for my tablet and had it back in my hands four days later.

I know it sounds unrelated by did you try all this while having the MIcroSD card ejected?
[Verizon LG G3] 225719:
hmm no I left the micro SD installed... I'm 1 month out of warranty haha Sadly after 28 mins the LG flash tool hung at 11% and said it failed due to a unknown error... this is going to be a challenge it would seam.

Edit: Sad part is I have another G3 just sitting here with a bad imei
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
You could probably pay someone to fix the one with a bad IMEI if you don't want to tackle that.

Official LG Tool or LG Mobile Tool 2014? I'd definitely try the TOT method then.
[Verizon LG G3] 225719:
from my understanding a bad imei cant be fixed on a G3 ?
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I thought people had. I've never had to try so I don't have first hand knowledge but I thought people had. Huh.
[Verizon LG G3] 225719:
Its flashed to the point where I get a LG logo and can enter stock recovery. if I boot it normally it goes to download mode. None of the KDZ finish it would seam. I've tried USB 3 and USB 2 ports. Going to learn tot method next
[Verizon LG G3] 225719:
TOT method tells me it cant change to DL mode after 6% and fails :( Funny part is the phone is in DL mode
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
That sucks. I'd try posting about it in the return to stock thread and see if anyone has any further ideas to try. Sorry man.
[Verizon LG G3] coliny59:
I'm pretty stuck. My phone is in a black screen and will not even show the LG screen when I turn it on. I know its booting into the ROM, but nothing displays. First I flashed 9.0 then 9.1 then the bootstack. Everything kind of worked. However, sound didn't work aat all and got iritatring so I reflashed 9.0 then 9.1. Is there any way I can get back into recovery? I tried the power and voly down by it just keeps rebooting the phone as I can't see the lg logo. Any suggestions?

After I figure out how to get into recovery I was thinking of flashing the bootstack again.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Read from post # 706 on the previous page. Get into Download mode even if you can't tell on the phone, verify it's in Download mode on the PC in Device Manager, use the 10B KDZ with LG Flash Tool 2014, start from scratch.
[Verizon LG G3] 225719:
Just to let you know I got mine up and running!
[Verizon LG G3] thekrautdog:
Awesome:good::good:
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Cool! Can you describe what you had to do?
[Verizon LG G3] BoulderGeek:
Has ony one else had apps which refuse to install, saying incompatible?

In particular, the Wells Fargo banking app worked on CM-based Nameless ROM and stock, but here it says not compatible and won't install. It will install on a rooted, CM 12.1 Fire tablet though! Gaah.

Edit build.prop?
[Verizon LG G3] minhas729:
So reports claiming verizon started to push MM update to G3.

http://www.androidauthority.com/verizon-lg-g3-marshmallow-update-668715/
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Do you have a backup of it in Titanium Backup? Maybe it's the DPI - try changing it back to stock with Texdroider in the Play Store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.texdroider.texdroider_dpi&hl=en. 560, I think?

Interesting. I probably won't restore to stock/unrooted and take the OTA. I'll wait for the KDZ and a ROM made from it (or make my own) just in case it's just as hard, or harder, or impossible to downgrade from it, or root for that matter.

I'll comment further in a thread in General.
[Verizon LG G3] minhas729:
I would also wait for pre rooted rom like always.. ;)
[Verizon LG G3] hokiealumnus:
Same here...we both learned that lesson the hard way on 35B! :D
[Verizon LG G3] nagi_007pk:
A bad imei can be fixed.

Just search for the QPST method.

I flashd the 24B bootstack and lost mine. Reinserted it using that method. Works magic. Didn't have a problem from then on. You could see my post from the early pages of this thread
[Verizon LG G3] kickbutkuss:
Alright I have read for a few hours and still don't have a clearcut answer on this and I know some of you know the best way to do what I'm trying to do.. Please know that I have read and done my due diligence.

I have a VS985 Stock rooted with the Hotspot mod. I want to install TWRP and flash this awesome ROM (Been a follower since my G2). Does anyone have what I need to flash with flashify to get me where I want to be.

Can't say thanks in advance enough!?
[Verizon LG G3] r.ramos519:
You have to click on recovery and download the latest TWRP but i did that on stock rooted 4.4.2
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
You didn't say what version of the stock ROM you're on. I don't know what the easiest way is to get TWRP if you're on 35B. If you're on 23C or 24B you can use one of the two VS985 autorec TWRP apps in the non-Verizon G3 General section. You have to use the right one depending on which of those two you're on.

I don't remember if when on 12B if it was as easy as just flashing TWRP, but it is on 10B. I usually use TWRP Manager to do it, but have only on 10B since when I downgrade, that's what I always downgrade to.
[Verizon LG G3] haoleflip:
I just have one question, I'm not sure if you ask here? But what do you mean when you say to create a file "/sdcard/battery" for better battery life? Does that mean just put a blank file or text file in the sdcard folder, rename it to battery, and reboot and that's it? I don't understand and I am trying to get better battery life.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Yes. No extension (no .txt) after you rename it.
[Verizon LG G3] kickbutkuss:
Sorry I forgot the most important info. I'm on 35b (just my luck). Is there any way to flash via Flashify? I'm not concerned with ever going back to stock and my final goal will be to flash

a MM rom from XDABBEB if he release's one.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Nope, it's not as simple as flashing TWRP with Flashify. You have to downgrade to 10B with the TOT method, re-root with the Stump app, then use TWRP Manager to flash TWRP.
[Verizon LG G3] cj360:
Sorry if this has already been said/explained but is this meant to be flashed over stock rom or by itself?
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
This will replace whatever ROM you previously had installed.
[Verizon LG G3] aaronc222:
Just wanted to throw my .02 as I just had this happen yesterday. QPST (393 or 402) wouldn't work for me at all. 80004005 port errors on 2 different computers. 1 Win 10 and 1 Win 8.1, both previously used to TOT back to 10b.

There is another NV Read Write tool (Google it like that and it should be one of the first few) that saved me.

Just read 226h/550 and save it to text.

Run the IMEI converter used for the QPST instructions.

Edit the text file with the hex the converter creates from your IMEI. (file already starts with 08, IMEI conv should also start 08)

Use the same tool to write that text file back.

Reboot and confirm IMEI in settings. If you are already on 10b like I was it will start picking up updates immediately.
[Verizon LG G3] TheLoonyRebel:
Is there any plans for some kind of 46A bootstack in the near future?
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Answer is in the first post of his 100% stock 46A ROM thread.
[Verizon LG G3] TheLoonyRebel:
And like a total noob I didn't notice that. Thanks for letting me know. I'll go and watch that infamous XDA noob video now. :eek:
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
:) Didn't know about that video.
[Verizon LG G3] speedingcheetah:
Holy Crap!

What u change to make the display look....sharper...and larger? Differnet DPI setting or something? I am on Jasmine rom on my active g3....just flashed this to a spare one...wow...like what i see so far.

Except....no file browser....that a bit of an issue.
[Verizon LG G3] CharlieGarg:
Guys i am on kitkat 10b ver of rom. Can i flash this rom directly like 1st flash bootstack and after that firmware using twrp
[Verizon LG G3] crunchybutternut:
Yes, that is the process I used, without any issues.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Yes, he changed the DPI setting. He also has an awesome custom kernel (IMHO).

He put a (I believe non-flashable) zip in the first or second post, I believe, that contains the original file manager that this came with, although I prefer X-Plore File Manager from the Play Store anyway. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lonelycatgames.Xplore&hl=en

I don't know if you can just install that file manager from that zip like a normal APK or have to copy it to system/app or priv-app and set it's permissions to match that of other APKs in those folders.
[Verizon LG G3] speedingcheetah:
Lol...I just sent the apk file from my active G3 to my spare one....both LG File Manager and VZW VM app installed fine.

If he makes a 46a version of this...debloated, slim kernel an of that.....would be very happy...but I hear MM is a whole different animal...
[Verizon LG G3] speedingcheetah:
So. I am having frequent "black screen" no boot issues with this rom on my inactive G3 when I turn off the phone and try to cold start.

Phone is in and otterbox defender...so not nice to have to batt pull....which sometimes takes a few tries to get phone to boot.
[Verizon LG G3] hawkswind1:
That's a known issue, seems to happen about 1 out of 8 reboots for me. There's a thread about it in general section. You can hold down the power and volume down button for about ten seconds instead of pulling the battery.
[Verizon LG G3] speedingcheetah:
Must be exclusive to this rom then....as Jasmine 9.1 is 35b and never has had this issue...

Makes sense, since this has a modified Kernal.

Seem to me that the phone is not shutting down fullying or cleanly...I shutdown the phone last night with 100% batt.....8 hours later I try to boot it up, it does the black screen, i do batt pull and it boots and reports batt at 82%....so something is still running and using power.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
If you're referring to my black screen issue thread, actually my thread is only concerning the issue of getting a black screen when rebooting the phone, whether rebooting from TWRP or from the ROM itself. I did no analysis of the problem of getting a black screen when turning the phone on, and I don't recall having that issue.

I have had the reboot black screen but a battery pull has always worked 100% of the time for me with no retries necessary. I haven't been convinced the two issues are related and the harder time [MENTION=3720465]speedingcheetah[/MENTION] had to recover from it further convinces me it's not related to the reboot black screen issue.

+1 regarding the button mashing, although in my case (no pun intended), it's easier and quicker and possibly better for the button life to pull the battery so that's what I prefer, but I have a simple case.
[Verizon LG G3] speedingcheetah:
The slimmer Nav bar in this is really nice on this rom....gives just a tiny amount more screen real estate but it really is noticeable.

I manged to change the DPI to 451 on my active G3 with Jasmine, which made the nav bar a bit thinner, but not as thin as this rom.

How do you modify the nav bar like that?
[Verizon LG G3] speedingcheetah:
Strange text message trying to be sent

I noticed that there is 2 txt message in my Messenger app trying to be sent that i never composed.

90080006200

STATUS

Any ideas how these go there?
[Verizon LG G3] hawkswind1:
Although it's rare I ever power my phone down completely, I do recall getting a black screen on occasion when powering back on. I may have another issue going on too though.

Funny you should mention button mashing. I had to replace my button assembly a few weeks ago :) Luckily it was only 3 dollars and ten minutes to do.
[Verizon LG G3] speedingcheetah:
What modem does this 35b bootstrap thing I have to flash use?

I would assume it's the 35b modem...but not sure as the build number in the rim says 47v....after the build number?
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
35B. Each bootstack flashes the matching modem as what the bootstack is named for. All the other partitions also match except for the bootloader (aboot) and download mode (laf), which [MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION] keeps at 12B so that you can still get into TWRP and still easily downgrade.

Visual Voicemail app

The app installed but says Connecting to Voicemail. After a while it gives an error says having troubles setting up service. error code 9009

found some articles and tried dialing *73 and retry app....not working.

NEVERMIND. The flashable .zip in the OP works fine.....apparently just sideloading the .apk doesn't work.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Did you try putting it in system\priv-app\VVM\VVM.apk instead since that's where it was originally? You'd have to uninstall it as a regular app first, copy the apk there and then set it's permissions to the same as other APKs in other nearby folders. Then you'd possibly have to reboot before you could use it.

I think most or all apps that start off in priv-app can't be installed like a normal app, or at least can't be used that way if they are installed. They have to go back into priv-app.

I use Google Voice so I don't worry about it. :)

Edit: Nevermind. I see your nevermind.
[Verizon LG G3] speedingcheetah:
I used to use Google voice.....but I kept having issues with the forwarding to GV not sticking after a week or 2 no matter how many times i re-setup....gave up and switched to VZW Visual voice mail as it is free as well.

---------- Post added at 11:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:02 PM ----------

So...this is interesting.

My inactive G3 will do the back screen thing everytime...when I shutdown the device and try to cold start it....but hasn't done it when I Restart....

My in use(activated) G3.....will do the black screen thing both when shutdown and reboot.....

Both devices were on Jasmine 9.1 35b......then the 35b bootstrap flashed, then XDABBEB'ss rom.
[Verizon LG G3] CharlieGarg:
Sorry for noob question...but how to create file like options given above in installation section.

Though i have tried but i think thats not working.

I opened es file explorer then opened sdcard0 and created new file sharpfix asgiven above. Then i rebooted and nothing changed when i opened sharpfix file again nothing there..it still empty. Am i doing wrong way. Please guilde
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Please don't quote the entire first post (OP). If sdcard0 is the internal storage, then yes that's the right way. You don't need anything inside the file.
[Verizon LG G3] CharlieGarg:
Thanx alot. Sorry for quoting entire post
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
You're welcome! No problem. :)
[Verizon LG G3] speedingcheetah:
How do u adjust the Sharpening thing?...I actually want to make it more sharper.
[Verizon LG G3] CharlieGarg:
Guys i m facing a new problem after updating from kitkat. My screen brightness jeeps on changing while,playing games. Brightness set to auto. While gaming it keeps diming and when i change angle of phone it brightens up again. Please help
[Verizon LG G3] my.ads0:
Are you sure that you're not covering the light sensor with your hand? That's one of the reasons I keep auto-brightness off most of the time.
[Verizon LG G3] CharlieGarg:
Yeah i think you are right, i covered the light sensor during gameplay but thing is why its not affecting on kitkat bcoz i m holding phone same way
[Verizon LG G3] jamminjon82:
You need to turn off game optimizer under battery in settings
[Verizon LG G3] CharlieGarg:
Thanx for the help but i dont have this option
[Verizon LG G3] jamminjon82:
Yes you are correct, sorry too many rom threads haha.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Try Lux (Lite) from the Play Store. Auto brightness on 35B is wonky and too dim too easily anyway.

:) LOL, I thought that screenshot was from 46A Marshmallow. I've gotten confused lately too.
[Verizon LG G3] alphamale:
Wondering of anyone can help. I have been running multiple aosp mm ROMs. I ever since I flashed boot stack 35 I have been unable to restart system ui. This could be unrelated to bootstack, but problem started after i flashed. Has anyone one else had this issue? If so is there a fix?
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Hi, you'd probably attract more attention if you posted this in a new thread in the Q&A section.
[Verizon LG G3] speedingcheetah:
What's "CAF touchboost"...google isnt really telling me much....

Good or bad idea to it and "adreno idler" on at same time?
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Just a guess that it adjusts the sensitivity of the touchscreen by changing the frequency at which it checks for touches.

I'm sure it's perfectly safe in combination with "adreno idler", but I would also guess that there's a greater chance of battery drain when using a higher frequency for the touchscreen, which would at least partially negate "adreno idler".
[Verizon LG G3] speedingcheetah:
O ...I thought it was a CPU booster....
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Maybe you're right. That makes sense too now that I think about it. :)
[Verizon LG G3] speedingcheetah:
This rom been super slick and smooth so far. Fells much zippier than Jasmine 9.1 i was on.
[Verizon LG G3] bigmarv31:
I was wanting to know what to add to the rom in order to get the weather working on the lockscreen, I love this rom but miss the lockscreen effects I know you need xposed and G3 tweakbox in order to enable them, I need to know what else I need any help will be appreciated Thanks
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
[MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION] doesn't include the following two folders and their contents:

system\app\LGWeather

system\app\LGWeatherTheme

I'm not sure if it includes:

system\app\LGWeatherService

I don't know what, exactly, the weather lockscreen effects requires, though - so I don't know if restoring those three folders from the stock 35B ROM (and setting the file's permissions and rebooting) would fix it for you or not.

I think I can log into my account from a PC and get temporary code.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Good! I wasn't likely going to get to this really quickly :)
[Verizon LG G3] csick:
You should have the option to send a code via SMS, no? With automatic authentication, it's easier to do this than to use Google Authenticator even.
[Verizon LG G3] halcut:
Whats an automatic authentication? same as via SMS?
[Verizon LG G3] csick:
If you select "Problems with your code?" you should have more options. One of them should be "Send a text message to your phone with automatic verification"

Basically what that does is send a text message to your phone and then read in the auth code from the text message automatically, so you don't have to enter in any codes.

They added that in the first versions of Lollipop, I believe.
[Verizon LG G3] agh1701:
Thanks for the clarification, this makes sense. I have since read post #2. Thanks for your kind response and you hard work.

I couldn't get android pay to work, but that's really not a big deal to me. Having HD calling working again is a bonus. The only thing I miss is lockscreen weather animations, but that really isn't a big deal. I'll live. Otherwise, it's running great.
[Verizon LG G3] Jimi Mack:
Android Pay i believe still has issues with roms that are rooted.
[Verizon LG G3] xdabbeb:
I use adb for everything, but if you don't have a computer that isn't an option. I put a zip in the OP that flashes the LG File Manager for those who want/need it.

As [MENTION=4029905]csick[/MENTION] said, however, all you need to do is follow the prompts when signing in to use one of the other methods (sms, pre-generated code).

No, it works just fine.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Thanks! No, it's Nova Launcher Prime and Cronus Weather which is based on, and written by the original author of the CM weather widget. I paid for it. It's been my most recent favorite for a few months. There's some things I wish it had but overall I like it a lot with its configurabiliy.

I use Wallpaper Changer to pick randomly at unlock from a bunch of sci-fi / fantasy pics and paintings by Jim Burns, and just a very few other picspics. I have to be careful because once I get tempted to get more wallpapers, I can't stop, so I generally don't add more.

Awesome! Thanks for providing that! Sometimes I want to sideload apps before I get online too. Of course, I have my LG Backup of X-Plore I could always restore immediately instead of later.
