How did you go about backing up your data? I don't want to lose certain app data that doesn't sync through Google play.
[AT&T LG V10] TayzGpa:
Update: Did a factory reset and Capture is back. Pull down menu looks normal now. Not sure what caused the change. Probably something I installed, but cant imagine what it would have been.

Anyway, all is well.

To get back to stock, has anyone tried to backup the Stock image using the built in LG BackUp, Root using Tungs method, then restoring the original image? Just a thought
[AT&T LG V10] BELASCO:
STATUS BAR tweaks, battery/calendar clock. I just had a thought – for reboot I was using ROM Toolbox's shortcut, Rather than the devices hard switch. An experiment for later.
[AT&T LG V10] TheBobMiller:
I have noticed problems with trying to reboot using non native methods. Some, like Xposed, doesn't even allow me to reboot from the app. I have stuck mainly to the hard switch and it seems to do the trick with no problems. I have been messing with the boot animations alot lately and doing numerous restarts with the hard switch and encountered no problems thus far.

So you have gotten into fastboot but none of the commands will work? Cause that is at least a start getting into it.

I did a google search for the latest google apps and framework services. Once downloaded, I took the APKs and placed them in my onedrive and then had to use the browser on my phone to browse to the site and download them one at a time to my phone. From there I installed each one, one by one and then rebooted my phone. I then downloaded the apk for adaway that is posted in one of the forums here on xda and installed that. I let it update my hosts files and rebooted once again. After it finished, my phone began working better than it did when I got it. All of the smart settings I use are now working consistently and the phone's touch screen seems more responsive now for some reason. I had issues where in the top left corner you had to really push the screen for the touch to register, now it is working as it should. I hope this helps. I will try to find the links for the files I downloaded.

I can't get this stupid phone into download mode. All the guides say turn off the phone and hold the power and volume down button. Then wait 3 seconds and connect to the computer while still holding the 2 down. Tried like 10 times and it doesn't work. what am I doing wrong?
[AT&T LG V10] ZVNexus:
Ah, my friend, you have ran into the same problem I did. I spent hours, possibly days, holding down the power and volume down button. It did not work! Why? I found out it is not power and volume down.

Here is how to do it.

1.) Power off your phone.

2.) Hold the volume down button (Not the power and volume down, just the volume down.)

3.) While holding the volume down, plug in a USB cable that is plugged into your computer.

4.) Wahla! It should now go into download mode and you can enjoy the goodness of root!

[AT&T LG V10] jrock77420:
Got root, xposed and now something has gone terribly wrong. Can anyone offer any help

Ok so here is the situation. I successfully rooted my AT&T LG V-10 and was very happy. I also got Xposed up and running without an issue. Then all of a sudden, I'm assuming this happened from one of the Xposed mods I installed but well, I'll give you a list of what is still working and what is not.

Still Working - The phone itself is still working properly. I can make and receive calls, make and receive texts, almost all apps run fine and no problems with the WiFi, network or Bluetooth.

Not Working - The main 2 issues are that I cannot access the google play store. I can go into it but it immediately takes me to the "check your connection" page and the "my account, settings, redeem" page (see picture). Nothing is wrong with my network as everything else works fine. Also My back button is the only button that now works. No home button or recent button. I can push them and it will give the sign that the button was pushed but no actions. Another thing is on my backup and reset page under settings, my factory reset option is gone, that's right, just gone. One other thing I have noticed. ADWARE! Ads pop up a lot. I mean where they arent suppose to. On my home screen with no apps running, on games I play that have no ads. I'm at a loss.

Steps I have already tried - So, I have tried doing a factory reset from power off mode but it tells me "secure booting error" "MODIFIED". Obviously I can't do a factory reset from settings, its not there anymore. I have tried going back through all the apps I ran when this started and changing things back but that did not work. I have unrooted the phone and uninstalled everything besides system apps and nothing. I just got this phone about 2 months ago and I really like it and I really hope something can be done to repair it. With no set custom recovery for it, I should have known better. Please, if anyone has any thoughts, don't hesitate to share them. And if your just going to say "phone is ruined dude, gotta get another one" please, don't bother. I'm already thinking that I may have to do that. But not so easy. Under contract with AT&T and of course when rooted warranty is void. So again if anyone has any ideas by all means let me hear them. Thank you guys.
[AT&T LG V10] VashTS:
do we choose Refurbish, upgrade or FOTA upgrade in the LGUP program?

I'm assuming one wipes data? i'd prefer not to wipe if i dont have to
[AT&T LG V10] mrcoolgli:
Just re-flash the TOT file that you used to root it. I had the same problem. I deleted some things that I should not have and tried multiple ways of restoring. "I deleted a critical LG component." The TOT file while it's not stock the only thing I have found that does not work is encryption.

---------- Post added at 06:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:12 PM ----------

Refurbish will wipe all the data, the other will not (According to other users in this thread). I've not tried the FOTA as with most ROM changes in the past it's always best to start with a clean slate.

---------- Post added at 06:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:14 PM ----------

[AT&T LG V10] VashTS:
Thank you for the clarification - I will try without wiping first, if I have issues then I shall wipe.

[AT&T LG V10] ZVNexus:

[AT&T LG V10] bigpunisher:
I did upgrade and that worked for me no problems. I can't promise it will work 100% for you but upgrade worked for me. I have not had any issues, second screen works as usual, and google apps work as they should. The only thing I have not tried is encryption but then again I usually don't have that on.

---------- Post added at 09:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:54 PM ----------

Not to beat the bush but did you follow the ops instructions to the letter:

Here's what I did. After finishing up step 7 in the instructions, I turned off my phone, removed the battery for about a minute, put the battery back in, and then while holding the volume up button, connected the usb cable to my pc. Sure enough, within a few seconds the phone entered download mode.

Download this.

2. Install the LG Drivers.

3. Extract the RAR File to get the .TOT file.

4. Unzip "lgupnew.zip"

5. Run LGUP_Store_Frame_Ver_1_14_3.msi

6. LGUP_8994_DLL_Ver_0_0_1_18.msi

7. Copy the "common" folder to "C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model"

8. Plug phone into Downloadmod.

9. Run "LGUP" from your start menu.

10. Select your Phone if see option.

11. For the "BIN File" select the "rootedsystemvs.tot" file you extracted in step 3.

12. You'll have root in about 3 minutes!

i noticed that now i can't set different notification sounds by going into settings and sounds anymore. does anyone know what app or module it is that manages these settings?
[AT&T LG V10] joeminati:
If I wanted to erase and factory reset, will it boot loop ?
[AT&T LG V10] TheBobMiller:
I wasn't aware that that was an option before rooting. I only thought you could manage which apps show notifications not set different sounds for each. Are you sure that was an option before?
[AT&T LG V10] P05TMAN:
I have not rooted my V10 yet and I do not see an option to set different sounds for each application notification; I don't believe that is possible.
[AT&T LG V10] P05TMAN:
I think I'll wait to root until if/when a stock TOT will be available, but thank you so much for finding a way for us to do this. Marshmallow is around the corner for AT&T version and I don't want the possibility of having to scramble to find a way to get OTA. The only reason I wanted to root in the first place was to remove all the bloat and be able to use more functions with Tasker and CallRecorder, but it seems that removing the bloat has some negative results anyways and I can live without CallRecorder and the extra Tasker functions for now. I can currently disable those undesired apps in stock without root which pretty much does the same thing as freezing them in TB.
[AT&T LG V10] pjrudd:
I could have sworn you could, I always change my tones, because I hate the default ones. It was for the System apps though, so like mail, messenger and then you had the default notification sound you could set.

I still have the default notification sound, but now I have to go into each email account and set the default notification sound if I want it different than the default notification as well as messenger.
[AT&T LG V10] IS33D34DP30PL3:
Thank you tungkick for the stock .tot
[AT&T LG V10] VashTS:
Does this mean we have a means to restore if we break the system?
[AT&T LG V10] ZVNexus:
If you broke the system, you could have always just restored using the rooted TOT, this is more I think if root was not your thing, or you wanted to get some OTA updates from LG, like Marshmallow. Although, with root I have overhauled the LG V10 so much more than LG ever did with Marshmallow on the V10. So I do not see why you would want to go back to stock, unless you want to return it to store, or give it to a friend when you buy a new one.
[AT&T LG V10] IS33D34DP30PL3:
The stock .tot would mainly be used for whenever marshmallow comes out for our device. The rooted .tot can restore your device if something goes wrong

[AT&T LG V10] SubduedRhombus:
Made it this far. My phone is in download mode but LGUP says there is no handset. I went to go find drivers and the LG website said installing Bridge would install the drivers. So, I did that and made sure that my v10 was recognised, but are there specific drivers I'm supposed to install? That can be the only issue I can think of.

Where did you get this "Gravity Box"? I would like to check it out. It doesnt come up in the xposed download section when i search for it.
[AT&T LG V10] TheBobMiller:
Did you put the phone in download mode before opening LGUP?

I'm not sure why it's not showing up in Xposed for you...there are 2 versions of it. One is for Marshmallow and the other for Lollipop. GravityBox is one word though, not that that should make a difference when searching for it. It's listed as a stable build too so it's not your version to be shown setting. Maybe try changing versions to be shown to beta or experimental and search for it.
[AT&T LG V10] scorey03:
I found it. I had to scroll down a little bit. I figured it would just be at the top because i typed gravitybox in the search field.....apparently not.
[AT&T LG V10] TheBobMiller:

Also, if anybody wants to know.....Xposed works just fine. I clicked that link to a guide in an earlier post here and it was a breeze!

---------- Post added at 01:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:13 PM ----------
[AT&T LG V10] TheBobMiller:
A few things you can try:

1. Make sure you are opening the program from the start menu or start menu folder. If it doesn't give a screen saying initializing for a few seconds (see picture 1) when you first open then close it and try again.

2. Change it to port 4 and see if that corrects the issue. I keep mine on port 4 and it works. I have reflashed the root tot file 4 times and the stock tot file once and all of them worked on port 4.

3. Try uninstalling the drivers from Programs and Features (see picture 2) and go to the link here: http://18d5a.wpc.azureedge.net/8018D5A/tool/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=PWZO7A26B9UW

This is the driver from LG's site that I downloaded and installed to make it work. Then try opening LGUP again and see if it appears.

Let me know if any of these fixed work or not!

[AT&T LG V10] TheBobMiller:
As far as I've heard, no. There is a way to replace download mode with fastboot mode but the phone does not respond to any of the commands you send to it. I'm currently looking into using a recovery alternative like Safestrap. The original Safestrap does not work for Lollipop phones but it may be possible to alter where the files are placed to get this to work. So far no luck but I'm trying a number of things. I've had issues with Flashfire and think we can do better for this phone.

[AT&T LG V10] hoang51:
Root is retained even after factory reset. This is because I just did a factory reset so that I can get back my second screen functionality and some apps too (phone app during call will not let me multitask such as switching apps or does not let me use the notification area). I lost my second screen and apps went crazy due to me using Debloater to disable a bunch of apps, some of which are probably critical to the Android system that LG apps rely on.

I know that every software version / model version of the G2 have root, but pre-root one time a .kdz / .tot file could be more user-friendly for those who wants to restore their devices and and gain root again, than using the actual method which goes through download mode

I have tried figuring out a workaround for the Android Pay error but so far have been very unsuccessful. I think the main problem is the inability to do anything in fastboot or have a custom recovery like TWRP installed. If I ever get a fix, I'll make a thread with instructions and pm you the link.
[AT&T LG V10] NightTheBear:
No matter what I do, I get met with one of two issues. The first, and most common is "can't load the model" from lgup. If I swap usb ports about 20 times, I may get lucky and have it actually give me something to select. But then thats the second issue. The only selection it gives me is "unknown", which gives me an error when I select it, saying I need to select a known model. Any ideas on h ow to get past this?
[AT&T LG V10] TheBobMiller:
Are you sure you installed all the drivers correctly? That seems the be the number one issue with lgup not recognising the device. I had to uninstall and reinstall them to get it to recognize my phone.
