How can I check if my bootloader is already unlocked?

On downloading mode it shows:

ODIN MODE

PRODUCT NAME: SM-G900V

CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official

SYSTEM STATUS: Custom

REACTIVATION LOCK(KK): OFF

QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE (CSB)

AP SWREV: S1, A1, A2, P1

SECURE DOWNLOAD: ENABLE

UDC START

Recovery says:

Android system recovery <3e>

LRX21T.G900VVRU2BOK3

(...)

# MANUAL MODE #

-- Appling Multi-CSC...

Applied the CSC-code : VZW

Successfully applied multi-CSC.

After it will be unlocked do I install TWRP by Odin or some other way (like from Safetrap)?

I'm on OK3 with root, after I get PD1 I will loose root access or is it possible to go directly to G900V_PD1_Stock_Odex_Rooted.zip?

Please go to this thread here http://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/development/rd-unlocking-galaxys-s5-bootloader-t3337909 to learn and understand how to unlock your Bootloader. Thank you
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] wolfenstein3de:
Thanks, I've been there. Just don't understand the part '6. Should be unlocked, goto download mode and verify '

Does this part saying about is it looked or not: 'REACTIVATION LOCK(KK): OFF' (in download mode)?

I looked up google images, but it's some kind of differend on my phone, so I've copied what it said in last message.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] buhohitr:
It means, boot to download mode (hold power÷home+volume down) to verify that your device bootloader is unlocked ( Should see development mode).
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] wolfenstein3de:
All it says it's:

so I guess it's locked as far, so I have to try method 2.

edit. I moved to PB1 with root, but somehow it got lost. I tried

http://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/general/root-method-og5-ok3-t3290370

5 times with factory reset, but Kingroot failed (3 restarts each try). Is there any possibility to flash OK3, then root (I have no problems with that), unlock the bootloader, then put PD1 and finally PhoenixROM 12?

if so:

1. how can I unlock the bootloader?

2. witch version of PD1 (G900V_PD1_Stock_Deodexed_Debloated_Rooted_ROM / G900V_PD1_Stock_Odex_Rooted / G900V_PD1_Stock_ROM) should I use?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] MonsterBoX:
Okay... so I went to the site and downloaded the apk for MM Viper4android... put it on my internal storage... when I tap it to install... I get a message saying "No application found for this file type"... was there anything in the Aroma installer that I should have installed from Google that perhaps I didn't to have this problem?

A lot of the Phoenix rom control features don't work and can't even open the notification panel button in the rom control features app. Also unable to use voice to text in messaging app. Other than that this rom is slick and smooth and plan on using as my dd. Thank you for such a good rom!

The OP says to be on PD1 bootloader. It also says to do a full wipe if coming from something older.

I'm on PB1 with unlocked bootloader. So I just boot to TWRP, factory reset, then install this ROM? Or do I first have to get to stock PD1 then install this ROM

Also once going to MM I can still go back to LP if I want right?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] djr4x4:
Must Be on PD1 Bootloaders and firmware... That is what the OP said... You must be on PD1 to run this ROM...

Once on PD1 you can odin back to PB1
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] aholeinthewor1d:
I read it wrong. I see now that it's referring to being on an older version of this ROM. That's when you have to wipe.

I was on KitKat until this morning so some of this is new to me. Can you explain what I have to do in order to go back and forth we between LP and MM Roms please. If I'm on LP now how do wipe and go to MM and install the ROM. Then how to I get back to LP from there and install and LP rom

Thanks

Which kernel did you use? Was it for the G900V?

Disregard: Found v10 Finally. Was very reluctant to flash a G900F kernel, but that's why we unlock our bootloader!!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] zachspod:
Love this rom have been useing for about 24 hours now but all of a sudden it wont connect to computer to transfer files. i have tried 3 different cords and i have 2 g900v phones running this rom but only 1 has this issue. i dont have the option on the pull down slider to change usb connection it does not even show up all it shows is the phone is charging.

NEVER MIND! i have no idea why but in developer options it was set to charge only.. weird.. i fixed it. still ove the rom even the wife had me flash it to hers. and its her first custom rom!

Update to version 12 on my Verizon and now my data is stuck on 3g for both Global and LTE/CDMA. I can get 4G on the LTE/GSM/UMTS entry but calls will not come in or out.

I even tried reprogramming via *228

Also tried clearing cache.

I've tried searching here and Google but have not found a solution.

Any thoughts?

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] aholeinthewor1d:
So if I'm coming from a different rom I have to download 12.0 first and then install the update after that? Or can I just download the newest version and that's all

---------- Post added at 01:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 AM ----------

Also where is the PD1 firmware. I figured there would be a stock rom but I'm not finding it. Only seeing PF4 and older ones
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
If I'mnot mistaken, *228 will dork your data and i believe the SIM card. As the SIM automatically searches for the best data location....i remember reading of this a while back. So by doing the *228 you will get 3G

Any way to undo it without a new sim?

Hi lanvrc

Thanks for using XDA Assist.

Could you please state the Model & ROM version of your device so we could better approach your issue guiding you to the appropriate experts? Different Models and different ROM have theirs own approach.

I will be waiting for your reply within the next 2 days.

Nevertheless, as you image has low quality, I was unable to determine the exact color of that screen element. The closer I could get was a RGB value of "F7FCFF" (that may not be so ... you shall verify it). With this value you should be able, using Notepad++ or so, to search the entire APK source for that string value which would be faster than what you are trying to do.

Nice regards.

[XDA Assist] lanvrc:
Thanks for the reply, It's a lg stock rom based on android marshmallow.

all of the elements i pointed has a white color, mostly an icons and some is label/text, but i still can't find it anywhere.

the image is not that bad in my screen (?)
[XDA Assist] Kdio:
Hi lanvrc

Thanks for the reply.

There are lots of LG devices. When seeking for support one shall be as detailed as possible in order to obtain the most precise support.

Those elements are not "white" as you mentioned. White would be if they appeared into the XML's as "#FFFFFFFF" and they probably doesn't.

I'm suggesting you that first use you should use the "Eyedropper" tool from the Drawing App you use (I do prefer GIMP) and determine the exact RGB color code that element has. With this color code, use Notepad++ to search and pinpoint where that color is used and, as so, narrowing your overall effort.

This is how we do Theme.

And yes, what you are attaching is coming heavily pixalated (see attachment) when I zoom in it.

Nice regards and good luck.

[XDA Assist] lanvrc:
Sorry i forgot about that, it's LG Magna H502F

I color pick the original image using photoshop and it says #ffffff

i search through every files that contains #ffffffff related to what i (think) is the element and change it to #ff000000 but nothing changed

sim carrier label, settings icon beside user avatar, birghtness slider icon, volume slider icon, these are the elements i want to change
[XDA Assist] XDA Visitor:
Genymotion and Xamarin Android Player they all share the same virtual box machine that runs and give an ip address for the UI of Genymotion or Xamarin to listen on for graphic output so you can see android it also enables hardware accelerated graphics... i have searched a lot and really can't find an answer to how they do it... so i figured out that nowhere is better to ask in than here.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jignesh_shah:
Hi All,

Phone - Moto G 1st Gen (India)

Model - XT1033 (falcon)

data backup - not required. Trying to bring phone to life is only objective. So anyone has any suggestion other than what I am trying below and will make phone alive I do not mind trying.

Phone was working very well before three days . After I did soft reset, it is going in bootloop only.

1. I can access bootloader and recovery menu.

2. I wiped cache, data/factory reset but did not help

3. after reading many threads on xda, so far i did following,

a. unlocking bootloader - done successfully, i can see status code -3 on reboot

b. flashing custom recovery TWRP - shows success on command line but neither i see teamwin logo nor twp recovery (goes back to stock recovery or shows black screen). I also tried CWM but same result!!!

mfastboot.exe flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-falcon.img

target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes

sending 'recovery' (9330 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.377s]

writing 'recovery'...

OKAY [ 0.185s]

finished. total time: 0.577s​

c. tried booting in twrp successfully, i can access TWRP

mfastboot.exe boot twrp-3.0.2-0-falcon.img

d. flash custom rom

- MTP is enabled by TWRP so moto g is detected in windows so copied Android6.0.1_NX_R10.3.3_MotoG2013.zip

- used TWRP to install it but gets stuck in "patching system image unconditionally" forever...

- Tried other ROMs such as XT1033_FALCON_ASIA_DS_5.1_LPBS23.13-56-2_cid7_CFC.xml with following steps, shows success but after rebooting I dont see anything happened.

mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin

mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img

mfastboot flash logo logo.bin

mfastboot flash boot boot.img

mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img

mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk1

mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk2

mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk3

mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

mfastboot erase modemst1

mfastboot erase modemst2

mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

mfastboot erase cache

mfastboot erase userdata

mfastboot reboot​

​

It seems as all the tools/commands are executed successfully but not able to make changes in flash.

can anyone pls. point me or guide me for the solution ahead?

Appreciate your support in advance.

Best Regards,

Jignesh Shah

[MENTION=7260387]skyrajparmar[/MENTION], appreciate your response.

I tried your suggestion but result is same.

details:

1-Reboot into recovery (twrp) - success

2-Wipe data system cache - cleaned data/dalvik cache/cache/system successfully using TWRP

3-Flash cm13 zip file..... - using TWRP copied cm-12.1-20151117-SNAPSHOT-YOG7DAO1K9-falcon.zip to internal storage (over MTP) and installing using TWRP. It stays in "patching system image unconditionally" forever... I waited for more than 30 minutes and still its going on...

4-reboot system - not done as it does not come out from previous step

Can you suggest if I have missed anything or doing something incorrect or any thing else?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skyrajparmar:
reasons

1-may be your cm12.1 zip file is bad..... try with cm13

2-your system partition may be damaged (fix-repair system n data partition in twrp )
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jignesh_shah:
[MENTION=7260387]skyrajparmar[/MENTION],

1. cm-12.1-20151117-SNAPSHOT-YOG7DAO1K9-falcon.zip is a snapshot and all CM13 are nightly. since i wanted to use stable than beta, i tried CM12.1

2. as you suggested, i tried wipe ->advanced wipe -> data - success

3. as you suggested, i tried wipe ->advanced wipe -> system - fail with error 4 - unable to repair system (pls see attached image)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skyrajparmar:
1-First convert system into f2fs format 2-now convert system into e4ft

3-try again repair function

Q had u tried cm13.....?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jignesh_shah:
[MENTION=7260387]skyrajparmar[/MENTION], as suggested,

1. converting to f2fs - on phone it shows success but when I press back it shows /system as ext4 only. should not it change to f2fs? pls. refer images...

2. converting to ext4 ( i assume there is a typo in your reply where you mentioned e4ft)

3. trying to repair - same error

I am downloading CM13, it will take few more minutes before I can try it...
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skyrajparmar:
Okay.... try cm13... then reply me..... i m waiting
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jignesh_shah:
[MENTION=7260387]skyrajparmar[/MENTION], as suggested, trying cm-13.0-20160617-NIGHTLY-falcon.zip and its stuck into 'patching system image unconditionally...'

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paradox♀:
Hey you can boot into fastboot which means that your phone is not hard bricked thats is a great news.

You can try wiping the partitions in the fastboot if the bootloader is unlocked

Try this in fastboot mode:

(Use mfastboot) :- http://xdaforums.com/atta...1&d=1442444179

Code:

mfastboot erase system

mfastboot erase cache

mfastboot erase userdata

mfastboot erase recovery

mfastboot erase modemst1

mfastboot erase modemst2

Then install the stock rom or flash recovery then install a custom ROM.

Hit thanks if it worked..!

[MENTION=5567693]Paradox[/MENTION], appreciate your response.

Sure, I will try erasing partitions and flashing again. I will post the result once I am done.

I have just held myself back before erasing partitions to make sure i dont erase information such as IMEI etc. which are critical once phone (if) comes back to life!!! so far, I have backed up PDS...

meantime, some related observations so far:

- I have tried flashing partitions (without erasing) before but it does not do anything.

- After unlocked bootloader, I am unable to flash TWRP, I can boot TWRP though.

- erased system partition and flashed again. e2fsck still shows error on /system

any thoughts/comments for above?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _3psilon_:
So strange, I have the very same problem. Just happened 2 days ago. I opened up a thread, but having very similar symptoms, maybe we'll find some support together.

P.S. I erased every partition and it looks like the memory was read-only, it didn't actually erase any data...
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jignesh_shah:
[MENTION=7548926]_3psilon_[/MENTION], yeah, strangely we both are having very similar issue (I dont have battery/cache thing. Also, phone gets detected with TWRP as MTP and works with fastboot, ADB) and I have not seen any other post discussing such issue.

Unfortunately, we both dont have any solution. :(

anyways, In case, I found the solution, i will post it. I hope you also do the same...

my best wishes!!!
