You flashed the wrong one.

You needed to flash xposed-v85-sdk22-arm.zip:

Okay, [MENTION=1092931]czars[/MENTION]up3rstar....

intersting things. i have been following the TWRP "port" of the lms330 carefully. i have flashe bOTH twrp's.. i tried the twrp-v3-.img FIRST..then tried M1 witf the button combo to enter recovery. KUDOS to you both...both recoveries appear to b working...as stated. however....

1. although the M! recovery boasts "download mode", clicking it simply restarts the devive. it does NOT enter download mode. error on my part? plz explain how this option works...

2. Neither TWRP will allow proper use of Link2SD. having been a LONG time user/tester (since the original Prevail days), and an even LONGER Link2SD user..i have a LITTLE experience (no sarcasm intended).

I have partitioned external SD both with mini partition wizard, and TWRP, with ext4/3/2. no matter what i do, Link2Sd ALWAYS comes back with a "MOUNT WARNING FAILURE"..."since 2nd partition is not mounted during boot, it is mounter after boot..blah blah blah". a simple "quick reboot" seems to solve this...although that lasts ONLY till next reboot, where i have to rinse/repeat the quick boot. Now..Link2Sd SEEMS to b operating correctly, files linked/moved to SD Card are read by phone...they are just "not seen". to b honest, everything appears to b running better than ever. i just do not like "error/warning" messages comming fom an app ive been using for years, now blowing up my phone EVERY time i reboot.

i have seen OTHER posts about the "other" twrp beta1 no button combo also affecting Link2SD, crashing aand whatnot, but i DO NOT MOVE SYSTEM APPS to SD yet..so theres my difference from them.

i AM STILL using M1 recovery...no REAL reason NOT to, unless i cant figure this out. ONLY reason i really NEED the recovery was to flash viper4android, but i CAN do without it if necessary.

3. by the way..i see the download version of M1 recovery is 3.0.2.0...why is the screenshot in your 2nd (ANOTHER FORUM-androidforums) post 3.0.2.1?? am i missing something?

Youve done a great job here..and many many thanks for the recovery,and thanks in in advance to help me NARROW this down

That has nothing with recovery. We need a insecure boot.img which I'm working on. Hope that answers your question. This is not my everyday job. Have you tried the latest image? I have also made a 2.8.7.0 image which I will upload. Im going to try to port a rom also I am going to test a theory. The Moto E surnia is a soc.0 device also but fstab has no soc.0 in the path so Im going to implement some more changes. Use V4 for now. Thanks for your understanding.

[LG K7 Guides, News, & Discussion] strykyn:
obviously...you dont ,undersatnd. YOUR recovery BREAKS the phones ability to read partitions!! SO IT CANNOT READ LAF.BIN....so NO, SIR, THERE IS NO WAY TO ACCESS DOWNLOAD MODE!! FURTHERMORE...there is NO OMNI ROM for this phone yet...so a TWRP for THIS PHONE BASED OFF OMNI ROM WILL NOT WORK FOR EVERYONE!! you have accused me of "downloading" and installing your work, when actually i was "hand in hand" working WITH you( see androidforums root section) . i never even flashed your latest version, as phone crashed 2 days BEFORE you uploaded it. look...i dont care what the situation it is....i tested your TWRP....on my own...knowing FULL well of repercussions that could happen. there is NO blame here.....your recovery just DOES NOT work. i tested 2 of your RECOMMENDED recoveries that boasted "download mode now in twrp, yet selecting DOWNLOAD MODE only rebooted the phone. i POSTED THOSE RESULTS TO YOU...AS I TRIED THEM...WITH NO RESPONSE ON THE MATTER FROM YOU. when questioned as to WHY "i" am the only tester here, YOU said "people are just lazy". NOT EXACTLTY what ive heard from reputable dev's over the years. i been doing this a long time sir, and am willing to "guinea pig" my phone, but ONLY when i KNOW that NO matter what, i CAN/WILL recover it. my results of testing, just check out androidforums, for my PROPER testing procedures, are MY OWN opinion, although i think if ANYONE looked at carefully, are well-founded. NOW i understand WHY YOUR RECOVERY is not"official", nor why it is NOT INCLUDED in the OP of this post. NOT EVERY1 uses their phone the same, and for those with NO EXPERIENCE in linux, after flashing your recovery, they VERY WELL MAY END UP WITH A PERMANENT PAPER WEIGHT. you are trying to turn this into something it isnt. simply put.....

1. AFTER rooting phone,

2. flashed your TWRP...PER YOUR INSTRUCTION several times...with several troubles, even resorting to using "third party software" ( a script manager) and "I" ended up in what ALL call a "HARD BRICK"

sir, im obviously in favor of ANYONE getting an OFFICIAL TWRP for this phone, hell, a ROM EVEN better. but "we" are testers for a reason...please..use your talents wisely, and LISTEN to your TESTERS. after some time, (in my case..lesss than a week) i have found a scenario....in a scenario that can be described as very LIGHT everyday use, that your recovery renders the phones ability to read the partitions IMPOSSIBLE. i wish you all the luck in the world. keep trying sir....good luck

and to any1 else having installed this recovery,or ANY recovery for that matter, suffering from "repeated crashes', unable to reboot to recovery/download mode/fastboot/or the ever fatal " NO OS INSTALLED"...do nOT give up hope. we have the KDZ......i got mine back (just had to wipe/reload the partitions)....we are ALL willing to help you too. from what ive read "goitalone" has become rather awesome when it comes to "bricks", and well..i been around awhile. dont throw this puppy in the can yet!!

THERE IS NO CUSTOM ROM FOR THIS PHONE YET!! so...USE OMNI ROM and other things based off it AT YOUR OWN RISK!!

The video I posted is using the same recovery. My download mode is perfect.

---------- Post added at 05:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:11 PM ----------

I removed the download mode button but not download mode itself. That's not the way android works. I have compiled recoveries that didn't boot up but that was recovery partition. Check out android.com to see what I'm taking about. Thanks for everyone's support.

---------- Post added at 05:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:18 PM ----------

This will be my last post but you have to be a noob if you don't know that all of twrp recovery is built using Omni ROM.

Omni ROM is being used because Cyanogen sources don't work well with twrp so please research being posting your opinions.

What if i can do it without the java and framework files into the PC?

Simplified Guide:

1. Install Drivers

2. Put phone into USB Debugging and enable OEM Unlocking

3. Power phone into fastboot

4. Put in command "fastboot oem unlock" through adb command line

5. Boot to TWRP

6. Flash SuperSU

7. Finished

[LG K7 Guides, News, & Discussion] CorporalCactus:
Something may be wrong with King root, I've followed this guide exactly three times, always get stuck on replacing king root with supersu. Either it doesn't do anything an stays on the screen with the errors after using the emulator. Or it will say King root has stopped working and it force closes. I tried installing supersu from playstore and it does the same thing, it fails to update the binaries for supersu and tells me to restart the device, just to do this all over again. Please help. I just can't seem to get kingroot replaced, I followed this guide EXACTLY with no luck.

thanks for the reply, i ended up finding this method elsewhere and got rooted and replaced it, my issues is now when i boot into fastboot and load up SDK and type the command it just stays on waiting for device or something, i have updated all LG drivers for the PC, not sure what else to try though....
[LG K7 Guides, News, & Discussion] goitalone:
Uninstall sdk and install this:

[LG K7 Guides, News, & Discussion] CorporalCactus:
if i uninstall how do i follow the tutorial to get this working? i ran the adb 15 second setup and phone still doesnt pop up during fastboot.what do i after installing this new adb program?I thought i needed the SDK on my computer to use the command prompt with the program-tools folder.
[LG K7 Guides, News, & Discussion] CorporalCactus:
This is so frustrating ive never dealt with ADB or fastboot as ive always owned att samsung devices. All i need to do is start phone in fb mode and then type the fastboot commands to unlock bootloader in CMD on my pc? under device manager it lists android device and then under that it lists LGE Mobile ADB interface. I just wish there were more help threads for this device and issue. So whats stopping me now is that ,y phone just will not be read during fastboot, just sits on waiting for device. When i swap to fastboot mode on the device, my pc makes the disconnect noise like im unplugging a device but then makes the 3 quick error tones like im missing a driver for whatever device i just plugged in

Install drivers, lg up, adb/fastboot.

Enter bootloader and issue "adb flash recovery file.img" twice back to back then issue "adb boot file.img. to flash and enter twrp from adb.

From power off:

After unlocking bootloader, enter factory reset mode plus the twrp for the phone. Hold down, press and hold power till lg let go of powrr still holding in down then press and hold power again.

Answer yes to both questions the phone will reset into twrp.

Swipe right to initiate r/w on /system

You will be told system is unmodified, hit yes to root device. Reboot into system, open up supersu, and downlosd the latest binary. Use the twrp install option. Reboot into recovery using "quick boot or rom manager" or via adb with "adb reboot recovery.

Twrp official with button combo recovery entry.

[LG K7 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
I have a better method to root the device. what you need to do is unlock the bootloader just like the guide says but do not use kingroot. but instead flash twrp then download the latest supersu zip and flash it. boom rooted on reboot. I do not recommend using one click root methods or apps.they contain alot of hidden things in the coding and they will obtain things about your phone and sell your info.

Does this kernel is good, and have features like RockZ1 Kernel?

@venkat kamesh

Some toughts about your new kernel.

1st, it can't flash zip in recovery (unlocked real recovery twrp 3.0.2)

2nd It can be install by fastboot just fine, and boot fine.

3rd It broke my WIFI, I mean It can't detect and connect wifi at all.

EDIT: WIFI fixed by reinstalling software (restore backup didn't solve it) so I needed to install all apps from begining but, it was worth it so far so good, i stress it pretty hard to check if it freezes like it sometimes od on RockZ1C kernel.

So far so good,

I flash kernel by fastboot as the flashable zip in recovery was giving me error.
