I doubt Sprite Backup is not possible to restore Flash ROM....

Sprite backup (and SPB Backup) is used to restore user files only.

Hello there XDA !

Ive been reading this forum for some time, looking for advices how to get custom ROMs on my LG L90 d405 . Ive tried multiple recoveries and all of them just bricked my phone and I was forced to revive it with LG Flash tool and root over again. Are there any chances for me to get a working recovery that accepts custom roms? Thanks in advance!
[LG Optimus L90] lfom:
Are you sure the problem is the recovery and not the aboot.bin you've used to unlock the bootloader? D405 don't have many available versions unlocked, you may need to downgrade in order to successfully unlock the bootloader and install recovery.
[LG Optimus L90] MikeiiAngel:
Oh well, Im up for it, but how ?
[LG Optimus L90] lfom:
In the original thread for TWRP by shoxxy you can find unlocked bootloaders for D405 and D405n running Lollipop 20a by LG:

http://xdaforums.com/lg-l90/development/recovery-twrp2-7-1-0lgl90w7xxshoxx-t2826150

1. Find out what model you have and make sure by looking at the label inside battery compartment;

2. Go back to stock downloading 20a firmware for the exact same model you have and flash it in download mode usind LG Flash tool (there is a tutorial for going back to stock here - http://xdaforums.com/lg-l90/general/guide-flash-stock-kdz-offline-lg-l90-t2803479);

3. Root using either one click tool or Kingroot;

4. Make sure Wi-Fi and SIMs work;

5. Follow the tutorial to unlock bootloader using unlocked 20a aboot.bim;

6. Flash TWRP using Rashr or Flashfy.

There are zip and img versions of TWRP, I prefer img when using Rashr, you can use it to backup stock recovery and kernel too.

I recommend the DarkBlue version by some other guy if you're going to flash Marshmallow ROMs, or latest by GriningFerret.

How's the performance eg. battery life , speed , etc ??
[Galaxy S 5 General] russticles5:
I've only been using it for a day but performance is snappier than lollipop for me. I went through various 5.0 and 5.1.1 roms but always had the issue with my device getting slower after a few hours use and getting multiple notifications to uninstall Facebook messenger and Twitter as it was slowing my phone down, but removing those never made a difference. Haven't had that issue on 6.0.1, haven't experienced any slow down or stuttering. Battery life seems good too. I'm a fan. This should work in any region, I'm using this Indian region Rom in Australia, no issues here
[Galaxy S 5 General] jeet3377:

[Galaxy S 5 General] Gialandon:
Hi All,

Tried the new firmware and initially had a few issues with odin but finally got a successful flash. At this point i let it reboot but it just got stuck on the samsung logo. I waited for a good 10 minutes but no change.

I reflashed the indian firmware and tried again, But again stuck on bootloop.

So I went back to the 5.0 firmware. It also got stuck on bootloop. Flased twrp and restored my back up but that also bootlooped. At this point i was a little panicky.

Finally just flashed 5.0 firmware again, went into stock recovery and did a factory reset. Left it for about 30 minutes. As I started writing this post it got past the bootloop and is working now. hurrah!

I'll try again with the 6.0 firmware tommorow but did you guys have to wait a long time after first boot? did you clear data or some other step after flashing with odin?
[Galaxy S 5 General] SirLoinOfBeef:
First boot can take a few minutes, yes.
[Galaxy S 5 General] firefds:
Tip - Before the flash, turn of the device. Take out the battery for at least 10 seconds, but it back and boot into download mode.

In odind unmark Auto Reset and MARK update bootloaders.

After the flash is finished and odin shows blue RESET, take out the battery again for at least 10 seconds and then turn on device.

The initial animater samsung logo should appear for 5-10 minutes then you will get to the green optimizing applications screen.

You could try going into stock recovery and doing a factory reset.
[Galaxy S 5 General] beargeo:
Just so you know its not universal - i had no issues -

I did read through people that did

For a perfect install -

1 load into your recovery and wipe for new rom - factory reset

2 switch off the phone for 10 secs then set up odin ( right click run as admin )

3 go into download mode and install the rom

99% of issues was stuff left over from other roms as the Odin process doesnt fully wipe the phone and you need a clean install

Hope this helps

Working well on Optus SM-G900i

Started from custom ROM PopWiz Telstra v5.1 Final including xposed and titanium

Full Titanium Backup to extsdcard

Entered Recovery and factory full Reset

Turned off, removed battery waited 30 seconds, Inserted battery and Booted to Download Mode

Flashed ROM from SamMobile: 2016-04-28 India 6.0.1 G900IDDU1CPD2 G900IODD1CPD1

Let it boot (this took a while)

Went through the out of the box experience, named the device, joined Wifi, 'No to any restore options' etc

Rebooted in Download Mode & Flashed: twrp-3.0.2-1-klte.img.tar

Rebooted into the new TWRP Recovery and Flashed: BETA-SuperSU-v2.71-20160331103524.zip

Let it boot all the way through normally (this also took a while)

Rebooted into TWRP Recovery and flashed: xposed-v83.0-sdk23-arm-custom-build-by-wanam-20160423.zip

Installed Titanium & License file from Play Store

Ran Titanium, need to select Document Storage Provider, then enable access to root of extsdcard (though the SD Card will have a weird Hex name)

Pointed backup folder location to the exiting backups

Restored non system apps and also (accounts, bluetooth pairings, call log, wifi ap's + a few others)

Perfect: everything seems to be working just fine. Seems a little faster (probably a lot to do with the fresh install than the new ROM). Will report on battery in a few days.

All in all, a pretty sooth upgrade. Very Happy.

Thanks for the detailed post, complete with the links. Makes it much easier for someone like myself that only flashes once or twice a year these days. Forget more than I retain, etc, etc :)

***edit:

Prob should add that I had to flash the Indian firmware twice, as I got the 'failed to go passed the boot screen' problem first time around. Re-flashed, exactly the same method as the first time and it ended up booting into the new Android.

This may have been because prior to flashing I did a full format of all the partitions, except the EFS, and a couple of the other system partitions. Who knows.

The other oddity, when it did boot, looking at the status it came up as 'official', and upon powering up I noticed that it wasn't showing its warning that the phone had been modified. That might be normal, dunno??
