It seems I was able to solve my problem after compiling info from different comments. The storage displaying 8GB issue was only temporary once it's all said and done.

I worked it out in this order:

1. Do steps 1-15. I used KingRoot apk along with Flashify.

2. Reboot into recovery and performed the White Line fix.

(NOTE: The screen flickers instead of displaying the boot animations when booting after this, but it still finished. This should be fixed by the last step.)

3. Reboot back into Recovery and perform steps 16-37.

(NOTE: I did have to perform the "make_ext4fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p33" format in adb shell post-flashing Candy5 and full reboot. For some reason, it won't let you do this in the same instance as the previous steps.)

4. Clean install LineageOS along with compatible Gapps and you should be right as rain.

Spent all the hours of the night trying to figure this out, but it was worth it. Hope this helps. :good::good:

You no longer have to do the 4GB partition growing with this one. Used it on a US AT&T v410.

Hello,

I've updated the OP to point to PorygonZRocks' tutorial with the flashable zip.
[G Pad 10.1 General] nicospanas:
Now that LOS will not be updating anymore, I was wondering if there is way to go from LineageOS back to stock lollipop? Thinking to sell my V410.
[G Pad 10.1 General] nicospanas:
Anyone?
[G Pad 10.1 General] jason2678:
Should be able to use the kdz to get back to stock kitkat then OTA up to latest update. Emphasis on should because OTA's make a me a little nervous anytime I've modded a device. I've not tried this myself.
[G Pad 10.1 General] nicospanas:
Isn't the available kdz going to mess the storage?
[G Pad 10.1 General] jason2678:
There's a V411 kdz that has been reported to work with this tablet too. It doesn't mess up your data partition and burn white lines into your screen. I think the V411 was the US Cellular version of the g pad, and I'm not sure they ever rolled out lollipop to it or if you'll get OTA updates properly if your V410 gets rebranded to a V411, though.

Timmytim posted a TWRP flashable stock kitkat rom, but it says it is rooted with busybox. It might give you the option to not flash root depending on how the installation is scripted. I've never flashed it myself. Don't root / unroot that rom then roll back to stock recovery and you've pretty much got a stock tablet at that point.

Basically, do what this user describes.
[G Pad 10.1 General] nicospanas:
Thanks a lot for the interesting info. I hope to get back to lollipop so I may sell the tablet. I don't think anyone will buy with kitkat... The last link seems like what I am looking for. I will try as soon as I get some free time, and come back if I face any difficulties. Cheers!
[G Pad 10.1 General] jason2678:
Good luck. It's nice to have a couple of kdz options available for disaster recovery in case you soft brick trying to take OTAs and wiping cache and fota isn't enough to break out of it.

i know this is a little late but i have issues, how to fix this my misc. file is 13gbm
[G Pad 10.1 General] unmesh59:
I was still on the factory OS but some apps no longer install so I decided to upgrade. Since LOS no longer does builds for the V410, I found an archived version lineage-14.1-20181111-nightly-v410-signed.zip.

If anyone can point me to a newer copy of LOS that worked for them, I would be very grateful

Also, I seem to have lost root. Would rooting require me to go back to KitKat?

Thanks.
[G Pad 10.1 General] nicospanas:
The version of LOS you've downloaded is the latest they released before abandoning support. Personally, I find it a bit laggy but this is to be expected on an old tablet. Also, many people (including myself) have issues with the wifi not automatically reconnecting (only manually), which is annoying but not a deal-breaker for everyone. No tethering, too.

The ways to root a lollipop V410 are not recommended, as you would have to install some chinese software with reputation for "shady" practices.

So, in order to flash LOS you would have to follow the instructions of this thread's first post. It may take a bit longer to get support for v410, in case you run into troubles. Most of the threads are quite old.
[G Pad 10.1 General] Wahaj224:
I know I'm very late, but a lot has happened to my lg tablet since. I installed cyanogenmod 5.0 for my device and it worked like a charm then I got the wish to upgrade it to marshmallow through cyanogenmod and it worked too. After using it for a while I got this ram expander app **** which bricked my device like a cake.. I was far from my home to try to fix it with my PC so I waited and attempted to downgrade to lollipop again I thought it'll fix it (my bad) but here was where things got messy. I messed up with the storage partitions I think but recovered the custom cyanogen lollipop and got my tablet to work. But boom when I checked my internal storage it was only fricken 4 GB, I tried a lot to fix it but couldn't so I ended up to a mobile shop and told the guy the god damn story I didn't know he was a dumbass he just downgraded to stock KitKat ROM and storage was still stuck at 4gb. I researched a lot about this and came to this forum.. I am a newbie plz overlook my crap English and help me get out of the fuss. I tried the storage fix zip file by another guy but it didn't seem to work. I

I downloaded a disk info app and analyzed what was causing it. There was an unmounted "grow" partiton which was 8Gb oml now I'm stuck.

PS, I had my device rooted all the time and the forum I replied my comment on I tried it but had troubles connecting my tablet with adb and computer properly. I'm new to adb stuff so I need someone to put a step by step easy instructions for the 15th onward steps on this forum,

Thanks!
[G Pad 10.1 General] nicospanas:
I remember when I did it years ago, I had problems with adb, but it is also possible to type the commands in twrp's terminal. You just have to be very careful that you type everything correctly, to avoid bricking it.

Another solution: People have suggested that the kdz for v411 is compatible with v410 and you don't get the storage issue.

Thanks for the reply i wasnt expecting it.

Can you please instruct me the twrp commands how to type them without a pc and parted, adb etc? It will be so nice if you did it. Or you can just tell mr step by step instructions of how to install that kdz.? Do i have to install it over my current stock kitkat rom? Please correct my confusions

Ps sorry for my late reply
[G Pad 10.1 General] nicospanas:
Sorry, I'm kind of confused. In storage settings it should say a number of GB total used of 14.68GB (at least that's what mine is saying). If it says 14.68 (or something close to 16GB) then it is fixed.

(Ignore 11.09, look into the red circle)
[G Pad 10.1 General] Wahaj224:
Look, before installing the kdz i had a total of 8 gb internal storage but in miscellaneous files, there was a large file called system data that was eating up my storage. It was greyed out and couldnt be deleted. Even after hard resets i couldnt delete that or track it down( it was 4gb before.) After the kdz, the total storage has become 16 gb but the system data file has increased to 11 gb

So, in other words i have neither gained storage, nor lost it. Its just the same.

I beg for help again. It would be lovely if youd help me

---------- Post added at 10:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:55 PM ----------

Im sorry i forgot to mention this system data file initially.

Btw i think that the problem is no different . its the partitions that are messed up.

Im craving for a solution

P.s the "grow" partition that was huge and unmounted isnt there anymore

For some reason adb wont detect my devixe in recovery mode any fix?
[G Pad 10.1 General] nicospanas:
Listen, the kdz for v410 that goes around, is a test one and that's why it messes up the storage. However, the v411 doesn't mess up the storage and that's why it shows 16gb as it should be. The fix in this thread is for the test kdz and it won't help with the v411 kdz you just flashed. Now that you have 16gb of storage, root your tablet (if it is not already rooted) and flash lineageOS or any other rom you like. They are lighter and you can choose what gapps and apps to install that do not consume so much storage. The lineageOS you mentioned at your first post is good, with some disadvantages I already mentioned.

There are a couple more but they are rooted lollipop: https://xdaforums.com/g-pad-10/development/roms-v410-tesla-tipsy-t3242772

[G Pad 10.1 General] Wahaj224:
So will installing lineage os fix my storage automatically? In settings of my devixe the total storage is 16gb and the free storage is 3 gb while the misc data is. 11 gb.

And for some reason /systen isnt mounted in twrp.
[G Pad 10.1 General] nicospanas:
As you have flashed the V411, your storage issues are not the ones mentioned in the first post of this thread. I assume that

by flashing lineage OS you will end up with a light-er storage because you will not have all the pre-installed apps that take up place. Maybe you messed up something by trying the fix on the wrong rom.

Have you tried uninstalling unnecessary apps to see if your storage improves?
[G Pad 10.1 General] Wahaj224:
Its not what you think idk why are you thinking like that but even hard reset doesnt help me. There is definitely a partition problem i have to fix. Becausw i cant use the storage i have on this device

---------- Post added at 10:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:43 AM ----------

Maybe i can flash the v410 kdz and then apply the partition commands?

Can you help me executing those without adb plz i will execute them after installing the 410 kdz
[G Pad 10.1 General] nicospanas:
Why don't you try flashing linegeOS and see if that resolves your storage issues?

If you want to start all over by flashing v410kdz, there is a software called Minimal ADB & Fastboot, which is easy to install and use, and try the commands via ADB.

[G Pad 10.1 General] nicospanas:
Boot into twrp, tap on advanced, terminal and start very carefully typing the commands following carefully the instructions in the first post.
[G Pad 10.1 General] Wahaj224:
Do i have to open terminal in a specific folder or just in the root of the storage?
[G Pad 10.1 General] nicospanas:
When in recovery, tap advanced, then terminal and start typing. If nothing works there is also this option : https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=75787067&postcount=699

I'm not that nerd. I know how to open the terminal but when i click the terminal, a window pops up saying select starting folder. What does it mean? In what folder should i have to start twrp terminal?

Ps. When i was on v410kdz, the flash didn't work with me and not just me some other guys too in the thread.
[G Pad 10.1 General] Wahaj224:
Well. On every command i execute on the terminal, i get returned to the command "sh : not found:
[G Pad 10.1 General] nicospanas:
Sorry for the late responce, but I've been away. I really don't know why you get sh:not found.

So, you cannot get adb and fastboot to work, the fix zip is also not working for you, and you cannot type in twrp because you get that message. Listen, if I were you I would flash again the v411 kdz, because the storage issue is only with the v410 kdz, then I would root it, flash twrp and flash the rom of my preference. I know you have already tried this, but I don't see any other option. Maybe you could PM the original poster of this thread and ask him if he could help you.

However if you have other storage issues all these fixes are not going to work. KDZ v411 shouldn't be giving you storage issues. If it does then the problem lies elsewhere and you should try to get support from someone more knowledgeable. As I have said the particular storage issue is only with the v410 kdz because it is a test one and we haven't found another one.

If you still want to continue from where you are, try to get adb working or maybe try another version of twrp for v410.

[G Pad 10.1 General] fatbas202:
You don't need data to mount in order to install Candy5. You should be able to install it from your external SD card.

If you still have trouble, try rebooting into TWRP and running `make_ext4fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p33` OR `/system/bin/mke2fs -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p33`. Then try to mount the data partition.
[G Pad 10.1 General] fatbas202:
That's very odd. It shows it as formatted EXT4, so I'm not sure what's going on. Try booting back in to TWRP and deleting and recreating the partition and then booting back in to Candy ROM. That should clear a lot of things up.

Here's a question, I wanted to go back to official LP so I restored back to this test build.

It kept saying there wasn't any update so I rooted and installed the stock v410 KitKat rom.

The update showed up, so I flashed the stock recovery and unrooted using SuperSU. I double checked with a root checked to make sure. I went to install the official LP (couldn't see the progress because of the white lines) it rebooted back into KitKat and said my device was suspected of being rooted. Now I have a nice Red "Rooted" in my download mode...Anyway to fix that and get to official LP?

[G Pad 10.1 General] fatbas202:
Just wait. It takes about 10 minutes to finish here. After that, you can cycle your display but it will still look washed out and it will take a while for the white lines to go away. Just turn the display on and leave it on for about 10 minutes and they will eventually go away.

I seem to have gotten a lot ofthings sorted out finally. I have a working KK stock rom, rooted, with correct free space showing. What I can;t sem to do is flash another rom in TWRP. I get a mounting error. I also cannot seem to use an external SD card without a lockup.

"Failed to sysMapFile "/emmc/candy5-release-blahblahblah". Later on, I'll try repeating this process all in one go, as opposed to taking freakout breaks Googling problems. lol

For some reason. I ended up installing the universal adb drivers, and fixing permissions to get proper powering off and app installs to work.
[G Pad 10.1 General] fatbas202:
So to clarify, you are good to go now?
[G Pad 10.1 General] fatbas202:
Hello,

Please search through this thread and read the OP. The white lines are not going away and will likely never go away. If they are on while the ROM is optimizing apps then leaving your screen on after that has finished will cause them to become less and less apparently until they disappear. The white lines will always appear while the boot image is running. There is some problem with the way that the test 4.4 bootloader hands off the graphics to the kernel and this will almost certainly never be fixed.

The tablet is perfectly usable except for the white lines during boot.
[G Pad 10.1 General] nerdyshinobi:
Currently, the tablet is usable, but very slow, and my SD card slot is not recognized. I'm running through the entire tutorial again just to make sure I have not ham-fisted anything. Will update when I'm done.
[G Pad 10.1 General] fatbas202:
Thanks for the update. It's entirely possible that your MicroSD card is bad or dying. It could cause a lot of slowness issues and other problems. You may want to check it on another system.
[G Pad 10.1 General] nerdyshinobi:
It was totally that card. In fact, if I had figured that out sooner, I might not have even done all this. lol But now I know it can be done. I did have to format to ext4 myself with the command you provided, could not mount /data otherwise. After that, Candy 5 went on smooth as silk.

I was able to fix the white line issue on my v410 today. After flashing the kdz and fixing the partition sizes, I wiped it and installed one of the CM12.1 nightlies from a few weeks ago. After verifying that everything was running smoothly, other than the white lines, I rebooted into twrp, backed up the boot, aboot, abootb, encrypt, and recovery partitions via adb. I then wiped the tablet using twrp's wipe feature. Then, I restored all but the recovery partition to stock using the files navin56 provided at this post over adb. I rebooted and then flashed today's CM13 nightly build and as far as I can tell, everything is running just fine and I no longer have the white lines.
