Bootloader?

So I'm trying to unlock the bootloader, rerooted with kingroot (still unable to remove it btw) and have been trying to unlock the bootloader. But for some reason everything i try, from using recovery into it, using the rom toolbox and quickboot, the phone just resets normally. is there a button combination that can force it to load bootloader? or is my phone extremely special?

---------- Post added at 08:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 PM ----------

naturally im too late once again. but i still cant remove kingroot. I'd love to help port the recovery but i dont have steady access to a computer. pleas keep the thread updated though:good::good:

[General Topics] RolandStoner:
Well I just pulled the stock boot.img and recovery.img off of my device. Im currently downloading the CM 13 source and I guess that will take a few hours. So in the meantime Ill upload my LS675 folder hopefully someone uses it I have things like the boot.img recovery.img and as well as the recovery.fstab file. The download link will be on page one of this thread.. Still have not gotten the LS675 Source from LG I got banned for downloading i guess haha. Ill update you guys if anything happens. Feel free to contact me,

Were you able to unlock the BL?

I have 3 of these brand new and do not want to use Boost Mobile. (TMO)

If we can unlock the BL, it will be a FUN time!!! :D
[General Topics] RolandStoner:
Try enabling OEM unlock and then put your sim in and update us if it works. I haves swapped boost and metro without issue
[General Topics] Thedarkwolf123:
Im pretty new to developing, but I've rooted, unlocked and flashed many roms to many devices, none of which were this difficult. I tried superSUme again to recieve the same difficulties and lags. Tried the terminal method again then remembered that there's a space after the sh command before the path. It succeeded in downloding superuser but kingroot was still in control. Im not sure if i missed a step or my tribute 5 is special but if anyone knows how to flash xposed id really appreciate it
[General Topics] Thedarkwolf123:
After rerooting my phone with kingroot i succeeded in replacing it with supersu. Now just to find the xposed files to flash

Flashfire gives me an error saying that its the wrong format for my device. Is there something im doing wrong? it seems pretty straight forward but i keep getting the error
[General Topics] RolandStoner:
Are you flashing with the zip or framework option, can you post the error
[General Topics] Thedarkwolf123:
I can't post the error cuz i cant screenshot when it comes up, i used the zip option. I ended up in a bootloop with a different xposed file so i am currently resetting it again (3rd time now) and im just going to stop when i switch kingroot with superuser. after that I'll wait and see how the rom comes along or wait until i get an sdcard so i can at least backup my data, although if it bootloops again I'm not entirely sure if i'd be able to restore it. i did recently find out that there may be multiple versions of the same brand phone, wonder if that has anything to do with my difficulties. will investigate further.
[General Topics] RolandStoner:
I just did a factory reset data reset / clear cache. Ill make a youtube video showing the root / kingroot swap / flashing process. Wait for an update. I will link the video as soon as im done. Should be quick

[General Topics] TheMadScientist:
Guys super sume bricks this device. The ones it didnt brick are extremely lucky. once u have twrp instlled and verified mnully unroot from kingroot. Then flash su in twrp. That simple. U guys are goin crazy with this thing to mny people are bricking. And. Xposed does work. Dont know if the tributes got otg but if it does download the xposed uninstaller and flash throught twrp. Or push the unstaller through fastboot and adb.

Also people are bootlooping then they try a factory reset which kills adb and dev options. Which leads to even deeper brick. So do no factory reset unless u hve the new twrp installed with button combo.
[General Topics] Thedarkwolf123:
LS675 will not allow bootloader unlock for some reason. So no twrp recovery. Anytime we try to flash it with flashfire it bricks the device. Flashfire apparently works to install xposed but there's another way to switch kingroot with supersu without twrp using terminal emulator like i did.
[General Topics] TheMadScientist:
I used flashify to load recovery. Downloaded twrp from source and just flash file. Also terminal does work good. I just know a lotta people are bricking with sume

Were you able to flash an unlocked bootloader image?
[General Topics] TheMadScientist:
Oh crap i got the k7 metro version oem unlock works for me
[General Topics] RolandStoner:
I was going to say, I know for a fact that flashing twrp to your device will cause a brick. You will get an SELinux error. The LG Tribute 5 from boost mobile has a locked bootloader but I think the k7 is able to access theirs. Could you possibly post your device software info and an image of your device in the bootloader? I tried flashing twrp and got a brick. recovered from it because of SELinux. reflashed stock and im back to normal again
[General Topics] TheMadScientist:
I will when i get home from work i use the k7 as a backup device but ive been plying with it on the side. Ive been working on a highly tweked stockbased rom i cant get it to load my kernal. If i could get my kernl to load rite i got it overclocked at 1.5 ghrtz. When i do get it to boot its really unstble. If u need any files or partitions let me know i can upload em to drive
[General Topics] RolandStoner:
Sweet! Thanks, also if you need source for your phone to build a rom for cm http://opensource.lge.com/
[General Topics] TheMadScientist:
Never built one before thats why im doin stock based i know like with the g3 and g4 the cameras dont work rite on cm cause lg wont open source the drivers. Been more or less using it as a lerning expierence.

[General Topics] TheMadScientist:
From what ive read they are very similr. Now i know like the lg stylus tmobile and metro i can flash either kdz To metro version and turn it into the tmobile edition

---------- Post added at 02:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:46 PM ----------

Is there a 5.1.1 kdz available for your device. I might try cross flashing and see if i get anywhere. Like i said the k7 is a backup device i buy sell trade and repair phones as a second job. So i only got 20 buck in mine and i am quite fluent in lg and hardbricks. So i may be able to board flash one back if it arose. Ima try unpacking ure kdz and packing my bootloader in it and try tht too. A bunch of diffrent thoughts.
[General Topics] glen5678:
Sorry, I'm new to LG stuff.

Is KDZ the LG firmware/ROM?
[General Topics] TheMadScientist:
Sorry yea it is. Ive been messin with lgs since before the g2 came out. Ive had a optimus. G2 g3 g4. Stylus. stylo. K7. Gvista. Lol im a lg whore. Which is funny cause im sportin a galaxy s6 rite now i ditched my g4 before it bootlooped from hardware issues. This is the first non lg device ive personally owned since the galaxy s2. So naturlly i asume everyone knows lg inside and out.
[General Topics] Thedarkwolf123:
The K7 and Tribute 5 may be similar but most methods that can be used with the K7 will not work on Tribute 5. I've tried a lot of them. I think the Tribute 5 has slightly upgraded software than the original K7 and thats what makes flashing and unlocking the bootloader so difficult. If there was a way to flash a k7 stock rom to it things might work but more than likely that will also result in a brick. This is the first lg ive worked with and i already have noticed that lg is very difficult when it comes to root.
[General Topics] TheMadScientist:
Lg has actually been pretty good. G2 and g3 had root quick and easy but then the new lg bootloaders came out like g4s. They are encrypted boot partitions. 256 bit encryption no unlock over a year after release. Now i know if a device is updated to mm unlocked bl is required for root. Loli is a little diffrent. Sprin g4 has a rooted system imge u push to it through dl mode. No unlock no twrp. Mm is unrootable. There was another app to try. Im trying to think. Rooted g2 the exploit was loki. Have tried old apps such as stump root and towel root

Did you ever get that YouTube video up?

---------- Post added at 07:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:02 PM ----------

While searching for ways to unlock ls675 i ran across a lot of similar issues with the rooted lg phones. (Not being able to flash recovery,unlock bootloader etc.) The Fact that the Tribute 5 was basically a renamed k7 came up as well so i started to try those methods but the twrp bricked the phone as did the xposed framework. Im not so technically inclined to actually go into the software specifics but i have experience with flashing roms and firmware. Customizing and extending battery life is usually what i go for and this phone has some customization options but can be a real battery drainer
[General Topics] TheMadScientist:
Sprint g4 has root but no twrp at all gotta keep a Backup on the intern sd and u hve to restore through dd commands. But no bl unlock exists

Sorry guys, I just got back from the Missouri Ozarks. What a time. I didnt have any service or electricity camping so I couldnt really do much but im back now. That youtube video is made its just in 4 seperate parts. I had to do that because flashfire "reboots" the device. Ill merge the files and then upload to youtube ASAP. As for right now tho, Its bed time. See you tomorrow
[General Topics] RolandStoner:
Here is the link to the ****ty video I made. Im pretty drunk right now so its not the most detailed or anything and when I made the video the rebooting ****ed my screenrecording up so its kinda random. If you guys want me to make a more detailed video I can make one but I figured youll pretty much get the idea. basically when the screen blanks for a second flashfire is doing its flashy thang. after that I opened xposed and it verified that I had xposed installed. just let me know if you guys want a better video ill webcam/recordmydesktop that **** for ya.

i have Treasure and just bought Tribute 5. Neither Kingroot nor Kingoroot work on the Treasure. After many attempts Kingoroot gave me root access. I then installed Supersu Pro but root checker could not verify. Tried reinstalling Kingoroot and rooting many times but always unsuccessfully. Kingroot also failed.

How do you get past "configuring your phone" screen in Tribute 5? I removed the SIM, disabled wifi, still it gets stuck on this screen.

SOLVED - don't know how to delete this

I've had my phone since may 2015 and never had a problem until last month. I'll save you a long ramble and just say it randomly restarts itself multiple times a day. Until, about 3 days ago it decided to restart (like usual) but this time it factory reset itself.

Now, I don't have an SD card or anything backed up; so ALL of my photos/videos for the last year+ has been completely wiped. I searched high and low for all sorts of android data recovery apps but nothing could find my photos that were deleted from the internal memory. A lot of them said for them to "work better" I'd need a rooted phone. So, at the end of my wits I decided that's what I'm gonna do. Whatever it takes. I've been searching for several days trying to figure out where to even begin but alas nothing. And I truly do not want to brick my phone.

[Xperia Z5 General] langeveld024:
Hi friends, as i see people complaining about temperature but they dont know the actual cpu temperature (and the people like me who wants to do extensive monitoring on top of all apps) , i decided to write an easy to follow guide on how to monitor these temperatures in statusbar.

You need cooltool from playstore installed, no root or xposed is needed for this operation.

i configured my statusbar to show as less as possible in cooltool, so only CPU usage, CPU0, CPU1 and GPU temperatures will be displayed after following these steps.

These steps may apply for other devices too, but please note that the sysfs paths may differ from device to device and even from android version to another.

1. Open up cooltool and swipe to the second tab ''labels''.

2. Make sure CPU usage, Custom Label 1, Custom Label 2, and Custom Label 3 are ticked and the rest is unticked.

3. Hit ''Fine Tuning'' below

4. Hit ''Custom Label 1'' and configure like this:

Prefix: G1:
Postfix:
Path: /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone12/temp
Regex: (\d+)
Replacement Pattern: $1

5. Hit ''Custom Label 2'' and configure like this:

Prefix: C1
Postfix:
Path: /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone7/temp
Regex: (\d+)
Replacement Pattern: $1

6. Hit ''Custom Label 3'' and configure like this:

Prefix: C2
Postfix:
Path: /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone13/temp
Regex: (\d+)
Replacement Pattern: $1

7. Hit ''OK''

Now it should show in statusbar, if not, hit ''Show Panel''.

You can theme it to your likings and align it in the spot that suits u best via the various sliders and settings, just play with it.

Additionally, u can disable notification via settings>apps>cooltool>notifications

If all done, things should look like attached screenshots.

G1 = GPU temperature

C1 = CPU0 temperature

C2 = CPU1 temperature

U have to fill in exactly as mentioned in OP.

Also, since COOLTOOL only allows for setting 3 custom labels, we can't set up temperature per core. But does it matter? No. Important thing is to check cpu0 and cpu0 and GPU.
