While pressing volume - and pressing power button, you have to release power button and press again once the LG logo appears

---------- Post added at 12:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:03 PM ----------

Maybe your not pressing it correctly?
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] aladin6:
When doing this, I have the reset screen, I reset, it reboots, it finishes rebooting, I power it off, I press volume- and power, I release power and press it again once the LG logo appears, I have the reset screen again .
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] gwolfu:
simply said

flash recovery and as soon as it says it flashed ok just pop out the battery and put it back in

then press volume down and power button at the same time and when you see the LG logo release the power button and press it again quickly

the phone will ask you to reset (no worry it won't reset) and confirm it

TWRP will then boot

now here you can do your magic like flashing root, dm-verity, CM13... who knows what else :)
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] aladin6:
Well, I re-downloaded TWRP, and now it works !

BUT I have a big problem, I forgot to transfer supersu, I rebooted the phone, and now I can no longer access to my phone. I want to transfer the file using TWRP, it mounts (I hear the connection sound in my PC) but I can't see it .

---------- Post added at 06:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:43 PM ----------

EDIT : Successfully installed supersu, I no longer have a "red message", but I'm always ending with "Reset phone" after booting.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] gwolfu:
think something is wrong with your system

did you try to format data and then flash supersu?

no sure if is related though
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] aladin6:
I think that I just have a /media partition because when choosing to wipe I just have /data/media wiped ... I no longer have an OS (I have this information "No OS installed! Are you sure you wish to reboot?" when chose to reboot).

I'm downloading Genisys ROM and I'll install it ... right choice ?
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] gwolfu:
yeah that is your problem

you managed to somehow wipe the system partition

just install a custom ROM from TWRP and you should be good to go
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] james1089:
I,m having problems after flashing lg update I can no longer copy anything to the phone from TWRP. So I have obviously lost root flashing update and phone is now engrypted. I have no SDcard and mtp or ADB no longer seems to work. Do I need to buy SDcard? the phone is working fine just getting a bit bored without the mods,
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] aladin6:
Problem solved and Genisys ROM installed ! Thanks ;) !
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] gwolfu:
if adb push is not working working, you will need a cheap sd card to put roms / mods on it

Hi everyone. I've come from a rooted z3.

Got my G5 today, so first thing was to get it rooted. Followed all instructions to the letter.

Now when I boot my phone, I get a white screen that says Enter password (with a countdown number of attempts).

what happened?

btw - is is possible to stop that annoying msg about - Your device software can't be checked for corruption and why does boot take so long now.

thx all.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Killua96:
Have You done the format data and flashed supersu as written in the OP?

For the message, no, is not possible
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] jcadduono:
ok i've decided to try taking this on again from scratch, if anyone wants to work with me in #twrp i'm on a mission to fix bugs, and not only in twrp, would be nice to get kali nethunter working properly

if no one volunteers in #twrp (freenode irc) i'll probably just forget about this device again though :D

Now if someone could figure out how to stop it saying "your device software cant be checked for corruption" when I boot.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] gwolfu:
that is on bootloader side

at least from what I know, you can't remove it unless you flash back stock and relock device
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] davestuarts:
Oh I see. Well I'm still on stock rom, so I assume it's the unlocked part and LG pushes out his message to piss us off.

I'm just now trying to either find a good quality alternative rom or using the Fluence patch system.

still getting used to the difference in screen size from sony xperia z3 compact to this...its weird at the moment.

Thx for your help.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] jcadduono:
Still waiting in #twrp channel on freenode IRC for someone to show up and test builds for me. No technical knowledge required. Just know how to flash twrp. H850 or H830.

I mainly want to make sure Nougat kernel is working fine. I merged V20 and G5 sources together into CAF and updated them.

If it is working well then I can go ahead and release an updated G5 twrp on latest twrp sources as well as make V20 support official.

All known issues fixed except encryption. Maybe encryption might have some more progress though...

Can someone please tell me the difference between the two "no verity opt encrypt" files? I see a 3.1 and a 3.2 version. Is the 3.2 just a more updated version? Files from here in page 1

any chance we'll get upgrade for nougat? Seems it doesn't work, after flashing through fastboot it simply doesn't want to boot in twrp, neither through button combination or fastboot boot twrp.img . Tested with Spanish Vodafone 20a kdz for h850

TWRP image for Nougat

Hi everyone,

Since the current TWRP image won't boot on Nougat firmware which (at time of writing) is v20a, I repacked it with Nougat kernel.

You can find it here, just flash via fastboot.

EDIT: exFAT support is not included, if you need to use your external MicroSD card please make sure you're using one with FAT32 file system (or reformat it)

:)
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] alexinc:
Thx for the update, but is it just me that can't mount sd-card in twrp now? No big deal, just curious... ;)
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] AntaresOne:
External MicroSD card or internal memory?
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] alexinc:
external micro-sd
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] AntaresOne:
Most probably the exFAT support is not working. I quickly needed a working recovery. :)

If you use a FAT32 card will work without issues
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] PrinceLc:
By me no internel and externel
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] alexinc:
as i said, no big deal. internal works and yes, it's exfat formated... thx for that fast workaround!
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] AntaresOne:
No issues with internal memory. If it's the very first boot in TWRP after flashing it you must format /data as wrote in OP (6th step to obtain root).

As specified in my previous post, FAT32 cards are working fine while exFAT ones not

You're welcome :)
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] PrinceLc:
Okay will format

Also, what's up with people saying exFAT doesn't work? It was tested to work fine before I put the build on twrp.me. No one's bothered to mention me or send me a message about it?

People must really not have much interest in this device. :P
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Nimueh:
Or they just aren't tech-savvy enough to test new TWRP builds ... I know I'm not :angel:

ADB/fastboot terrify me and if I were to mess something up I'd be sol in a big way.

I have no idea why filesystem I'm using on my external, but from reading the previous posts I thought ExFat not working was only an issue with Antares new build for N :confused:

I hope you do get your testers though, I'd love to have a TWRP version that actually has the correct date/time :) :fingers-crossed:

Hi guys,

I've installed the beta you've uploaded earlier and it works fine on v20a :) but I have a question. Do we have to flash no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip also? cause the link from the first page doesn't work..

cheers
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] alexinc:
working great on nougat again - extfat sd-card too. so thx!
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] jeffsga88:
Did you actually install the new test build for h850 on your h830? And it actually works? Thought twrp is device specific. And in twrp clock has always been off for this device and usually the battery percent too but not a huge deal. Also on h830 twrp it sometimes becomes super sluggish after flashing or anything if screen locks but that's easy enough to fix by manually disabling screen lock in twrp. Anyways thanks to devs for still working on this device and trying to improve things for us.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] lordodin912:
Ya, works fine (used flashify to flash the img).

The devices are very similar. Sorta like my old m919 could pair with the i9500....wish it was more like the s4, then we could just flash a kernel over an 850 rom and have it work. No anti rollback if you were careful and you could have a frankenphone (different android version modem, BL and OS [of the same device, ex. M919 4.2 BL and M919 4.4 Modem running MM OS] would work nicely together)...etc etc etc. Miss custom kernels....[emoji20] . Love this phone though and all the hard work devs and everyone are putting into it! - end of rant.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Dëmön_1:
Hi,

I have just a question, how can I boot into recovery on new G5 Nougat?

With MM I didnt have any problems but now I cant to find a way to boot into recovery.

The only option that is working is with adb but of course then it is only stock recovery.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] jcadduono:
you can fastboot flash it then remove the battery and then put the battery back in and use the magic button combo thing for entering recovery, something like voldown+power release something hell if i know someone told me someday lol

otherwise you can probably use H918/US996's recowvery trick as well (which won't work when december security patch comes around)

another alternative is to find a copy of your stock boot image, then flash twrp to both recovery and boot, then fastboot reboot, then inside twrp you can flash your stock boot back followed by verity disabler. then you should have no problems getting back into twrp.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Dëmön_1:
The thing is that the voldown+power keys arent working for me anymore. I cant boot with that into recovery, the phone is booting like I pressed nothing.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] lordodin912:
If you have root then use an app like "SimpleReboot", or use a comp and "adb reboot fastboot" then flash the recovery and run "adb reboot recovery".
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] Dëmön_1:
I want to boot into TWRP to root the device but with the keys it isnt working anymore.

Did LG something change how to boot into recovery?
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] eep1:
I have an H830 with CM 14.1, can I flash this with Flashify? I know not officially but if lordodin flashed and it worked as long as it's OK with CM I'll try too.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] lordodin912:
The recovery is seperate from the OS, shouldn't effect CM. Only when first trying to install if twrp didn't support the OS.

You can always go back anyway. Backup backup backup.

---------- Post added at 10:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 PM ----------

Power off, hold vol down and power, when LG logo appears release power for a sec then hold it down again, all while holding vol down the entire time.

Or "adb reboot recovery"
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] jcadduono:
wouldn't surprise me, LG is using a whole new bootloader in Nougat.

it even boots both lz4 and gzip compressed kernels!

but they took away its ability to use separated dtb.img :(

this is why official twrp isn't working - it used separated dtb.img

i suggest everyone use https://build.nethunter.com/test-builds/twrp/lge/twrp-3.0.2-1-h850.img for now until I get a new build started on twrp.me. shouldn't be far off, maybe a few days. waiting for a few commits to get into TWRP code.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] jeffsga88:
Does using this version of twrp on our T-Mobile phones fix the incorrect date, battery percentage and sluggish response after backing up or flashing if screen locked? Also does the h850 version of twrp then think when installing ROMs that is the h850 and not the h830?

[MENTION=5672995]jcadduono[/MENTION] - would there be any risks using this version of twrp on T-Mobile, especially with regards to flashing custom Roms and stuff (I know generally rule is don't flash if not for your device, just wondering as lordodin says he flashed and it works fine)? Thanks in advance.
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] cdanthien:
I tried and finished rom based V20a. But after flash room, My device got stuck at LG Logo. I used Superr kitchen for building rom. Please check it and fix issue soon
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] jcadduono:
these aren't issues i know about, but h850 3.0.2-1 and h830 3.0.2-1 twrps are already the same, if you have that issue you won't lose it going to the other version, only difference is dtb and what model it shows as

if you had the issue previously in a version before 3.0.2-1, then it might be solved in 3.0.2-1 because it's an entirely different nougat kernel based on V20 sources

if you still have it in 3.0.2-1, i probably can't do anything about it

this isn't a twrp issue, PEBTSAC bro, if you're having trouble in the kitchen call rom chef ramsay
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] jeffsga88:
Yeah I'm still on original twrp 3.0.2-0 (the one included in modified tot file). So maybe new version will fix those issues. Can't find an updated twrp 3.0.2-1 for h830 so that's why I was wondering about using h850. Not sure if I missed it posted somewhere or if you haven't released it yet? But not sure it would be good idea if it twrp then thinks it's the h850 because I wouldn't be able to flash custom Roms for my device anymore. Unless I misunderstood you?

every folder on build.nethunter.com is a browsable directory, so theres all sorts of things u can run into there...dangerous things :)

i also have a rs988 build there in case lg ever adds it to bootloader unlock...they added us996 which is the V20 version of rs988 -_- i've been calling them out on twitter about it
[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] jeffsga88:
Lol thanks. Not sure why I didn't see that looked at the directory yesterday didn't even notice.. anyways thanks, hopefully it fixes those couple issues, plus nice having a copy of twrp around without needing the modified tot. Any yeah I doubt lg will ever add rs988 but then again they shocked me by adding the us996. Who knows maybe one day lg will realize how many people like truly customizing their devices.

[LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] lordodin912:
Try this, fastboot flash the recovery again, then pull the battery and put it back in. Now hold just the vol down key and plug the phone into pc, should boot into download, then try "adb reboot recovery".

try checking device manager, if you can switch between different drivers that you installed with those files... i ws going crazy for almost a day with this problem before i just change from the list of compatible drivers and suddenly adb and fastboot was finding device. i'm almost sure you activated adb in developer settings of android of course!?
