Supersume will softbrick if you havent unlocked bootloader
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] GoldenTerrabyte:
I need some help! Upon attempting to execute the script, it just fails. I screenshotted the error but XDA won't let me post an image right now. I have the Xposed Installer, I don't think that's the problem. It says "stderr: tmp-mksh: <stdin>[8]:

cd: /sdcard/Android/data/com.mcs.txi/files/Download/xposes-v85: No such file or directory" and "extracted file system/xposed.prop not found" even though checking by my file explorer seems to show that the xposed.prop file isindeed there.

Using an LG K7, which is what the creator of the app used, so I know it's not impossible for me to make it work...
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Xstar410:
Yes that was an issue that was never reported until a few days before & I have updated the tool to fix that issue & added many improvements...I am truly sorry it didn't work for you, but the problem is now fixed since the latest update 1.8(9) went live!

the problem was this for LG 5.1.x devices...." cd /sdcard/"

the fix is this.... "cd /storage/emulated/0/"

however it did work before though...but I dont know why it became an issue recently

(But, like I said it was just recently reported so the issue could have been there since day 1)

Here's the changelog!

My beta tester reported that it works...I will try to verify it again, but can you send me a screenshot via PM?

[LG K7 Questions & Answers] jonesin:
By the way I have unlocked bootloader and twrp with supersu if u need me to test anything.

:D
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Xstar410:
do you have busybox installed?

-the beta tester reported he had that installed before trying out the update before it went live
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Xstar410:
Latest update 1.8(9) Verified & working

Two users have verified it works on their LG K7...so what I would suggest is to uninstall & reinstall my tool
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] EvilJezuzz:
1 k7 bricked. Security error #9. Now on my second k7. Not even sure I want to attempt any further rooting and flashing until a more reliable method for root and unlock and a really solid build for twrp comes out.
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] its.mahmud:
DO not try!! I bricked 2 phones. i guess wait until better solution comes. I shouldve wait :(
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Xstar410:
kingroot is reliable as a rooting method, but the only way to get rid of it is to flash a Supersu beta zip in a custom recovery & disable kingroot & remove it as a system app

to install the xposed framework is by using my tool which is be far the most easiest however I don't why some users are still reporting it doesnt work when my beta testers verified it works again earlier today
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] jonesin:
I never got back to testing it because I ended up installing xposed manually in twrp. I did not however have busybox installed so that very well may have been the issue.

P.S. If you can get a CM build running on this device you are a god!! PUHLEASE!~!
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Xstar410:
Its not hard to build CM or any other custom rom...however ATM I am focusing all my efforts into Terminal Installer X & some others apps I been fiddling with...so I may or may not do it at all

(I dont have a good PC too....just another reason)
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] jonesin:
I am willing to dabble. I am going to start playing around with building it for our devices, I may reach out to you for help if that is ok? Setting up a vm builbox right now and have the source so gonna give it a go.
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Xstar410:
you should buy an 1TB external hard drive HDD or SSD & install Ubuntu on it...then changed a few settings on the PC to boot from a usb drive if its connected

(dont worry it wont try to boot from normal usb drives if it doesnt have the bios info files)

this way your PC isnt overloaded with 50gb to 120gb worth of source code...

Also connect your device to an ethernet cable from your router because depending on your speed...it can takes upto 8 to 16hrs in downloading time...

I will also try to find the tuts i used before to build cyanogenmod
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] jonesin:

Ok so I am still somewhat noobish on this stuff. I do not want exposed framework as it seems to be a terminal and is not what I am interested in. I already have a terminal source if I want it. What I am looking for is a way to repurpose or mod paranoidandroid as it is of major curiosity to me. I am new to custom roms but that is the only one I want to try out in this foray. Will I need to compile it? If so will I need the lgms33 source code as well?

---------- Post added at 03:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:35 PM ----------

Ok so I just checked and my model number is actually LG-k330 not lgms33
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Xstar410:
You don't understand at all...

Xposed & the xposed framework are NOT a terminal....Its basically a custom rom, but can still keep the stock android & install awesome features through modules.

however my tool "Terminal Installer X" is a terminal to INSTALL the xposed framework since normally a user would have to flash a custom recovery & install it from there...however not every device that's new & old have a custom recovery boulde built for it.... so that's why I developed "Terminal Installer X" to support devices WITHOUT custom recoveries.
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] d34dp001:
Ok that was besides the point anyway. Thanks for clarifying that though. If you have any information for creating something that can install paranoidandroid especially since it is not supported by paranoidandroid itself i would very much appreciate it. Only posting here since this thread is dealing with custom roms and especially people who have dealt with them lots themselves.
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] trojanprince:
could i flash it in download mode and fix my phone? you'd b a life saver if so! :D:highfive:
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Xstar410:
Did my tool bricked your device?

Yes that is 1 method to fix your phone...however the kdz firmware file has still not been released yet

So here are 2 other methods to fix your device

1. Use your PC to Boot in bootloader & type "fastboot OEM unlock" & after its unlocked reflash the system partition with a unmodified stock system img

2. Create RMA with LG & have them fix your device...obviously do NOT tell them you rooted the device since it WILL void your warranty

[LG K7 Questions & Answers] raisedbyradke:
can you please explain

Can you please explain further on how to do option 1? Mostly on where or how i would get the stock system img. My phone does still boot in to twrp recovery and fastboot plus it boots up just fine in safe mode other than i have no launcher installed so use is is limited to accessing the settings and that about it while powered on. I didnt technically brick mine, more on the i uninstalled some somewhat important stock apps and factory reset the phone. After that the phone will boot but since those apps arent there its functionality is limited.
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Xstar410:
Then all you have to do is download a compatible gapps package & flash it through TWRP...a gapps package is a bunch of google apps...so that is your only easy solution since its not bricked...

A suggestion....if you want to choose what apps are to be installed then go with the "aroma" package...but it is about 500 to 600+ MB though!
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
Flashfire or twrp xposed works great. Also i. Rooted with kingroot. Flashed twrp in flashify. Went in and removed ki g from within itself. Then flashed su through twrp

---------- Post added at 07:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:49 AM ----------

There is a tot for this devices.
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Xstar410:
The easiest solution to the problem was just to reflash the gapps zip...please don't post indiscriminately w/o explaing why or have no details steps to back it up...all you leave are unanswered questions for new users who may I try your half baked solution....
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
What are u talking about. Is all i did is post what worked for me problem free. I mean. Wtf. With as little development as this device has i figured people would be happy. With another method. Dont know how long youve been messing with lgs. But i know i have for quite some time now. Ive been working on a custom rom now for a few weeks of owning this mediocre device. And dont feel its much worth even messing with. Back to the g4.

If any one has any questions about my half baked methods please feel free to ask. After all this is a forum for developers and modders alike.

[LG K7 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
I am saying my method to install xposed worked also. I use flashfire. No recovery needed. The app flashfire is built by chainfire. It works wonders on most lgs g2 g3 g4. K7. stylo i use it to flash everything instead of twrp.

Only thing i used twrp for was to flash supersu. And only after i removed root through kingroot app first.

My steps are to install su as safe as possible and i bricked other methods people used.

Im jot gonna go through how to unlock bootloader theres many threads on that. I just know what works for me and am not twisting no ones arm into anything.

First thing i do after unlocking bootloader is root with kingroot. Only to install flashify. Once flashify was installed i flashed twrp.

I installed a quick reboot wiget to geto twrp. Then i unrooted from kingroot su app. Rebooted to twrp. And flash super su. Then i was rooted properly.

Since flashfire came out i use it to flash all zips. xposed framework. Viper4android. Loads of modules run decently on this device

And to further this. Nothing is really safe on this device as there is no active key presses to enter recovery so in my opinion tot kdz method is about the easiest safest quikest restore method available
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Xstar410:
Made the wrong point....

What meant was just add more details/steps to your solution such as a link to the tot, link to the software to use such tot, & how to use such software....this is a community of developers where we can openly share ideas/solutions , but again for future reference more details will be helpful for others so they are not discombobulated trying to find all the files & trying to figure how to use the software (very noobish Devs & user) will love to have more solutions at their disposal...so I wasn't putting you down for your solution entirely....more details never hurt anyone...right?
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Xstar410:
You are right

However the user thought he/she was bricked, but as it turns out the user only had to reflash the device with a gapps package which the user confirmed worked....this also allowed the user to keep their data w/o resetting the device.
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
I understand.

Ive always been more of a dooer lol. Than a explainer. My ADHD kicks in. Im messing with a few other lg root methods. Also forgoi g kingo or kingroot altother. Such as flash twrp straight from fastboot. I always end up in no recovery at all for some reason. But. Twrp from fastboot then flash su directly. But the binary wont update. Im sorry ive been doing phones for a long time. Startin back in honeycomb. Just so this device to me is useless almost with twrp. Due to no direct hardwarer button recovery method. Have to be done on kernal level.

As for the tot. Method. Lg up and lg flashtool cant juat be explained. Each phone has there own list of files. Tots of kdzs. Plus dlls.

Kingroot

I used Kingroot to root. Than I unlocked my bootloader. Fastboot oem unlock. Get var to make sure that you are unlocked than used flashify to flash recovery than through flashify go to recovery backup than flash update supersu zip the latest one of course. ( previous to rooting I downloaded flashify and system app remover from the play store) than uninstall Kingroot with system app remover than reboot that open up supersu and follow all the prompts than you should be good. And just to make sure all Kingroot apps are gone open up system app remover and delete all Kingroot apps and also precede to remove all apps that you don't want or use EXCEPT PRIORITY APPS THAT WILL PREVENT THE DEVICE FROM BOOTING BACK UP.
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Nemaz:
im on a freshly bought metropcs ms330 running the LMY47V build. i used kingroot 4.5 (had later versions not work on other phones, use this one for compatability) to obtain root. used w0lfdroid 2.4 method to swap kingroot with supersu.

im not sure if you guys have unlocked your bootloaders, but i have oem unlock enabled but wasnt able to do the fastboot oem unlock function because drivers werent successfully installed.

ive noticed i cant edit my build.prop or mixer_paths.xml files at all, i wasnt able to flashfire xposed sdk22 arm v85 manually.. device control [root] shows my bootloader as unknown. terminal emulator x v2 cannot successfully install xposed neither.

is this all because i havent unlocked my bootloader? i also havent experienced a single bootloop throughout all this
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Xstar410:
al long as you have busybox installed & OEM Unlock enabled...you can install xposed with my awesome app...

which adb/fastboot drivers are installed

are you connecting the phone to a 3.0 USB slot

Hi Xstar410! It looks I'm a bit late to this party...I've rooted my K7, unlocked the bootloader, flashed twrp and then I found your thread.

The question is, will your tool work for this phone that already has a custom recovery? Thanks!
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Xstar410:
Yes

My tool was designed for phones that do NOT have custom recoveries...however you can still use it even if one is installed & also the 2.0 beta app works so much better than the legacy app that I made before....so heres the link the new tool if you want to check it out!

Terminal Installer X 2.0

It does everthing automatically from downloading the latest framework version & checking compatibility...so you dont have to do anything at all really.

Yeah hes an asshole

Not to mention he spammed this app under the title k7 then gets butthurt when people have questions about the device. What a joke.
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Xstar410:
Well originally I made this thread BECAUSE I owned the device, but also because of the app that I made...since you want feign your ignorance a bit...take a second to process this information...I was not butt hurt at all nor was I mad, I was simply joking & I did apologize to the user who actually thought I was serious about his one word comments...grant it you would not have a clue what he was referring to since he didn't reference anything at all...so I was simply joking around to be a **** & I accept that... however I can't accept trolls who do not post anything that's related to this thread or its subsidiaries.

Subsidiaries = me, my apps, this thread, etc.

(At the time I made this thread...the LG K7 was still one of other millions of other devices without custom recoveries...which my app "Terminal installer x/2.0" help break that void by allowing the user to install xposed WITHOUT a custom recovery, but directly through a shell(that's why "terminal" is in the name) & this thread was a testing ground for my app too FREE promotion!)

Understand now or learn something yet?
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] VanillaSkies:
Yeah I've learned something

I've learned your app in the broken links provided has been removed from Google Play and I've learned you're an asshole.

I wasn't talking to you to begin with.
[LG K7 Questions & Answers] Xstar410:
My development came to an end...finally.

I learned something knew every day, I know I am asshole, but insulting me or just scratching the surface of a conversation that got out of hand that you took out of context.

I keep forgetting about my post/threads...so in the following days I am posting useful info...like my title suggests Terminal installer x/2.0 does not need to be developed anymore since xposed installer 3.1 released in October around the 16th or something. The new version 3.1 implemented the feature I cultivated in my tool, but the original developers made it much better & even more compatible than my own apps.

I removed the apps of my own volition & can easily make them go live again since my server still runs until the last of my users to make the switch from terminal installer x to xposed installer 3.1
