There has GOT to be a way to obtain root WITHOUT kingroot. Im sorry, but I think that voluntarily signing up to be part of a damn Chinese Botnet is simply ludicrous.

I have a cricket lg style 2 software version K54014b. Has anyone found a way to root this phone. I'm still new to this. I've tried and read everything I thought but I'm not getting anywhere.
[LG Stylo 2  Questions & Answers] AeonFlux1603:
I realize this is an older post, but I wanted to report that, like you, I was able to attain permanent root on the ZV4 firmware build using KingRoot, then replacing the KingRoot binaries with SuperSU binaries (v2.82-sr5) via SuperSU-Me Pro. (and manually updating the root binaries after replacing them). I have not been able to accomplish this on any build newer than the ZV4 version.
[LG Stylo 2  Questions & Answers] roadkill42:
Yep only zv3 and zv4 are able to at this moment
[LG Stylo 2  Questions & Answers] AeonFlux1603:
Hey [MENTION=5349263]roadkill42[/MENTION], are you over on the Stylo 3 rooting thread as well? If so, what are you thoughts on putting together a rooted, stock ROM for the LS775, similar to the root method for the Stylo 3? In theory it should work. The most current stock OS could be manually injected with root binaries, then pushed back to the LS775 using modded LG-UP.
[LG Stylo 2  Questions & Answers] roadkill42:
Sounds good but I need my PC running before I can try anything

Anyway, I hope you get your gear working soon, and please stay in touch. You seen to know these LG devices through and through, and I'd love to work with you some as well.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Lightn1ng:
With all the random qhsusb_bulk hardbricks coming around, I've decided to create a thread to share debrick.img files just in case. You do not need to create this, but if you ever need it, you'll be glad you did.

EXPLANATION:

If you ever HARDBRICK your phone, which can be caused by flashing an incompatible ROM, bad bootloader flash, or anything, your processor will fallback into a mode called USB_BULK mode. In this mode, it will await an SD card with a special image flashed to it, called debrick.img, and boot to that. Once booted from the SDcard, it will await a firmware flash from a computer (download mode.)

However, this image needs to be specific to the bootloader version the phone was running before the hardbrick occured. That's why I've created this thread: people on different bootloaders can share their debrick images.

HOW TO MAKE ONE:

Flash this in TWRP/FlashFire/SafeStrap

Your debrick.img (may be named something else, look for the .img at the end) will be in your external SD card and share it here please for others who may need it

BACK THIS UP EVERYWHERE. Google drive, dropbox, mediafire, everywhere. DO NOT loose this.

HOW TO USE ONE:

If you ever have the unfortunate luck of needing to use a debrick image, here's what to do:

-Download Win32DiskImager

-Put your microsd into your PC (yes you will need an adapter in some cases)

-Use Win32DiskImager to write the debrick.img to the SD card

-Take battery out of phone

-Put the SDcard into the phone and put the battery back in

-Do Vol Dn+Power+Home

-Your device should boot into Download Mode, and you should see "SDCARD MODE" at the top right

-Flash stock firmware using Odin

Downloads will be added to the 2nd post

PB1 BOOTLOADER DEBRICK

PD1 BOOTLOADER DEBRICK (thanks [MENTION=4168602]klabit87[/MENTION])

PLEASE SHARE YOUR OWN DEBRICK IMAGES! I WILL ADD THEM HERE
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] al50:
Great thread to start!! Question, if i'm running PB1 firmware/kernel but I haven't taken any OTA's passed OC4. Would my debrick img be of the OC4 bootloader? Or do I need to flash the OC4 firmware/kernel to where everything is of OC4? This question may help people who are unsure of what's what.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Lightn1ng:
It is completely based on bootloader version. You can use "Phone Info - Samsung" to confirm before creating an image.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] sean19661:
This is great would be nice if you could create Bod5 img for us who are still able to downgrade

When I get a chance I'll make one for the OC4. Just want to be sure to do it correctly. Since I'm on UL OC4 Bootloader, PB1 firmware
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] ben_pr:
Just for clarification, your script doesn't create a file ending in .img:

#Unbrick-Creator.zip\tools\Unbrick.sh: Line 5
mv /external_sd/Unbrick_Files/200MB.img.gz /external_sd/Unbrick_Files/Unbrick_IMG.gz;
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Lightn1ng:
yes but if you use an archiving program like winrar to open it there is a file called 200mb.img inside and that is the debrick image
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] S.N.@.K.3:
I really appreciate ur efforts, but I have a question does it work on all devices ? I will be amuse to know.

Also how space does it requires? 2gb microsd ?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Lightn1ng:
200mb is all thats needed on sd.

Only for samsung devices.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] ben_pr:
The file inside the archive just takes the name of the archive and excludes the ".gz". Since your script renames the file from "200mb.img.gz" to "Unbrick_IMG.gz", the file within the archive is simply named "Unbrick_IMG" and does not have an extension.

I can change the name of the archive to "Unbrick_IMG.img.gz", then extracting it results in a ".img" as expected. However, with the script you posted, users will have to do this last step manually. You could either not change the name in the script, or have the script include the ".img" to save users this last step.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Lightn1ng:
the non-extended extracted "UNBRICK_IMG" is the image file and simply adding .img to it will allow it to be flashed
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] ben_pr:
Yes, sorry, but the reason I'm pointing this out is so that you might update the original post to accurately reflect the process.

People shouldn't be looking for a file ending in ".img", and they will also need to extract then rename "Unbrick_IMG.gz". Ideally, whoever created the Unbrick-Creator.zip should just fix the script inside and update the link. I'm not sure why the zipped file gets renamed at all, nor why the original image is called "200mb.img" instead of the expected "debrick.img".

The script could just look like this:

#!/sbin/sh
mkdir -p /external_sd/Unbrick_Files/;

# Changing name of image from 200MB.img to debrick.img
# dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/external_sd/Unbrick_Files/200MB.img bs=4096 count=50000; # Original
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/external_sd/Unbrick_Files/debrick.img bs=4096 count=50000; # Modified

busybox gzip /external_sd/Unbrick_Files/*;

# Removing the rename command
# mv /external_sd/Unbrick_Files/200MB.img.gz /external_sd/Unbrick_Files/Unbrick_IMG.gz;

chmod -R 777 /external_sd/Unbrick_Files

Then, to get the image file, the user simply needs to connect their phone, navigate to the "Unbrick_Files" folder, copy "debrick.img.gz" to their computer, and unzip the archive.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Lightn1ng:
Good point. I will update the OP later. This is not my package btw :P

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] akaplo:
Could someone who has updated to the PD1 bootloader post an unbrick.img for that please?

I attempted to update; flashed the PD1 stock ROM and bootloader in muniz_ri's updated thread and ended up in a soft brick, so I decided to try a full stock PB1 reset, but something went horribly wrong and I'm currently in a hard brick state.

Since something must've gone wrong halfway through, I suspect I'm still holding onto the PD1 bootloader. I've tried the process with the PB1 unbrick.img provided earlier in this thread, but sadly it didn't do anything. Thanks for all the hard work!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Lightn1ng:

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] jscurry10:
Any chance someone has or can make a debrick image for NE9?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Lightn1ng:
Well. The Qualcomm bootrom only refuses to boot from the SD if the qfuse has been blown (to not allow downgrading) but if your bootloader is Kitkat, you SHOULD be able to use a PB1 or PD1 debrick image to recover. Keep in mind that you will only be able to flash Lollipop and Marshmallow ROMs after doing this.

Assuming you are fully hardbricked, does your brick show as "qhsusb_bulk" or "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader (9008 or 9006)" under Device Manager?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] jscurry10:
Unfortunately my computer is not recognizing the phone as a connected device at all anymore.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Lightn1ng:
Even with the battery in and out? No Qualcomm emergency download mode? :confused: :( you're probably fully bricked as the same code that runs the USB bulk also controls the sdcard boot.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] jscurry10:
Well dang, that's unfortunate. Luckily it was only my back up. I'll have to retrace my steps to see what I did wrong. I was flashing a rom like I have done a dozen times on samsung devices. Thank you for all the quick responses!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Lightn1ng:
It still may be worth creating a debrick image using the instructions in the OP. Also, I believe there is a button combo to get to Qualcomm emergency download mode. You can mess around with it. I'll be here if you need help.

Sorry about the loss. I think its good for people to hardbrick once, because it really teaches how much caution should be used when flashing your phone.

Debrick IMGs are specific not only to device but also to what bootloader you were on when you hard bricked your device

Could someone provide me with a debrick image of the developer edition bootloader? It could be someone who has unlocked their CID15 SGS5, they just need to have the dev bootloader on the device. I have attached the debrick creation zip, just flash it in TWRP and send me the file from the debrick images folder that is created on your external SD card. Thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] al50:
It's bootloader/firmware specific though....at least that's what im aware of it needing to be...so what actual bootloader/firmware were you on?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Hariiiii:
Funny story, and kind of a long one. I was trying to hard brick my phone so I could run some tests with changing the CID of a samsung SD card and then using the SD card boot to load the dev bootloader...so I first dd'd the dev bootloader to my aboot partition thinking that would brick the device but it didn't...oddly enough. The device booted as normal although I didnt have access to developer mode in the bootloader. Anyways, so I then proceeded, (not thinking obviously) to flash an NCG bootloader to brick it through rollback protection. Thus, now my PB1 debrick images that I have don't work and I need a debrick image of the dev bootloader....if you could help I would appreciate it so so very much...thanks.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] ridenickel9:
I am on PD1 bootloader as I updated from PHX11 BOG5 to running Jkruses stock 6.0 MM ROM.

I attempted to go back to a restore which was running OG5(PHX 11), it took and phone booted fine however my wifi and softkeys did not work.

(Idiot move done before my coffee) Thinking i just needed to match firmware to OG5 i flashed an OG5 firmware zip I had. I am now stuck in USB bulk mode 9008 (old mode)

Please help me if possible - I have downloaded the PD1 debrick image posted in this thread.

I will go get a new 16gb sd card and write the debrick image to it.

I will also download the odin PD1 firmware files from sammobile if I can get to that step in download mode. It going to put the phone to a stock locked location but at least it will be working on 6.0 better than a brick.

Any other thoughts on how to fix this /proceeed / am I thinking about this correctly?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] afaneh92:
Use the PD1 debrick img from second post and do the instruction, you need 16GB sdcard or 32GB depend on your internal storage.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] ridenickel9:
Doing it currently, have it ready to go and got phone to download mode. I can even restart (cancel) and it will boot phone to normal state (wifi and keys still now working) If I shut phone off it will not reboot without the sd card in and going back to download mode.

My question is what firmware now? Do I use the PB1 stock image floating in the general forum? I have not found a PD1 stock image, which is fine - as I would like to downgrade and get back to 5.0 rooted.

When I boot it into stock recovery now it says i am not on PD1 but now on LRX21T.G900VRU2BOG5. Im confused here....

I went and download the PB1 stock image from Jkruse and were back and running! Off to re-root!

Thank you so much for the debrick image to get me going again!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] afaneh92:
Flash full PB1 firmware via odin. And go with root instruction.

Verizon S5 SM-G900V

Good morning:)

I have the Verizon S5 SM-G900V.

Flashed via Odin G900VVRU2DQI2_G900VVZW2DQI2_VZW_Verizon_USA_Android_v6.0.1_MarshMallow 3 times.

The phone continually reboots into recovery mode, it will not boot to the verizon logo.

The only mode that seems to work, is download.

I wrote the debrick image to a 32gb sd card.

Question's:

Do I need to write it to a 16gb, because my phone is a 16gb unit?

Do I need a QI2 unbrick image?

Thanks for reading:)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bbsc:
1. No.

2. No, you need stock firmware with pit-file or a new motherboard if that does not help.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] budies3:
Thats what I was afraid of... Thank you for the help!

---------- Post added at 11:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 AM ----------

I got a "Secure Check Fail : Cache"

I will try re-downloading from the link again.

Does that mean its a bad download?

---------- Post added at 12:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:47 AM ----------

Never mind. I extracted it with winrar instead of 7zip.

This time I was able to finish the flash!

Thank you for the help, but it seems this is a dead phone, as its still just trying to boot into recovery for a few seconds then reboots....
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bbsc:
It's normal. It must first boot to recovery, then reboot.

And note, the first boot will take 12-15 min., but not more than 20 :).

So, be patient.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] budies3:
Thanks, but it doesnt even make it into the recovery menu.

It sits on that screen with the blue writing on the top left for a few seconds, then reboots to the booting to recovery screen again....
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bbsc:
Hmm, this is not normal.

I don't know if there's a way to repair this by flashing something, sorry.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] budies3:
Its all good:) Thanks for the help!!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bbsc:
You're welcome.

Try to flash firmware only: https://mega.nz/#!TgNSCY6Z!QoWm3dazTmKAEHvNJH8Zlx-juiIPewzDqM0fDuFy0WA

Download, unzip and flash tar with Odin.

In theory you should have a working recovery after this.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] budies3:
Well, that took away the booting to recovery screen...lol :)

Now its the same screen but no recovery on the top left.

It sits there like its going to boot, just like before, then reboots.....

At least its almost normal....lol :)

Thanks!

I know this is old thread , but anyway..

So i've got bricked S5 (G900V) and trying to get back it to life.

I've debrick image , so i can go into download mode and install firmware with odin , but no matter what i try , i'm still in same boat . if i take out sd card then i'm still in qhsub 9008 mode , if not it continiously restarts and trying to get into recovery mode after installing firmware .

So any advices?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] afaneh92:
You need debrick image match your bootloader.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] jkjambo:
How do i know which one i need?

Also , when i flash firmware , doesn't it mean i'm flashing new bootloader too? So if that's true , then i think i've already matched debrick image and firmware i've flashed , but it's still same

Did i missing something ?

Actually i'm just flashing firmware only , not bootloader , so there is problem i think .

But where should i get 4 file firmware for verizon s5?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] afaneh92:
If you are on android 6.0.1 bootloader you need PD1 debrick or newer, also you need class 10 sdcard with same size as internal sdcard (ex: 16GB).
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] jkjambo:
I've flashed both lolipop and marshmallow , but i'm not sure about bootloader version .

I do have sdcard and it gets me in download mode with no problem with debrick img installed on it , but still i'm not able to boot system .

I don't remember which version of debrick img i'm using , but i'll try both soon
