After much searching, I figured out how to root my L3 G3 D852 Canadian variant. I pulled all the strings together for you. First off, I had one heck of a time finding a way to downgrade to v30e or lower. My software version was D85230g, and just for fun, I tried Kingroot and it didn't work (as many of you reported). So I managed to find D85230e, but I couldn't get the kdz file to download (even tried various download managers). The filename was called D85230e_00_0526.kdz, so I decided to do a Google search for that file, and I found one.

The next step was to downgrade to v30e, and so I downloaded the drivers and tools and followed the instructions from here (I did not download the kdz from here since they didn't have the earlier version I needed). Unfortunately for me, I could not get LGUP to properly recognize my device (it said "unknown") on Windows 10, so I gave up on it and found the LG Flash Tool. I followed this tutorial, using my v30e file that I previously downloaded.

After I successfully downgraded, I installed Kingroot and had successful root! Now that left me to try and find Autorec for Marshmallow for the D852. I had tried the D855, but it wasn't compatible (couldn't even run it). After searching for a while, I finally found someone post a working link. It was a bit of a pain because Mega.nz forced me to download their download manager (I've never had them do that before) in order to download the files. But at least I got them. :)

As a note to the instructions on how to enter TWRP recovery, see this video. I was a little bit nervous when I actually entered factory data reset mode and the OP's instructions essentially told you to say "Yes" (ie, vol down to select and power for enter). And you need to actually do it twice to confirm. But what the OP doesn't explain is that if you have TWRP, it doesn't erase all your data. It simply gets you into TWRP.

Now to make things easier for you guys, I have uploaded all the files needed to my account on androidfilehost. I included LGUP in case you have better luck with that than the flash tool. It's nice because now they're all in one place. Happy rooting!

Hi, thank you for the details post.

I had the D85230g and downgraded to D85220f Telus KDZ and now it seems I can't use LGUP or the Flashing Tool to install another KDZ file.

I will try your files and follow your instructions to see if I can get is to factory reset and install the D85230e KDZ.

One question though, were you able to get TWRP working on 30e? Cause I was not able to get it working on my 20f no matter what I tried so far.

Sorry, mine was D85230b, not 30g.

Thank you,
[G3 General] lb357:
Hello threehappypenguins,

I think I totally screwed up my phone.

I followed the instruction to get v30e with LGUP and with the LG Flash Tool you included in your file list.

When flashing using LGUP reaches 9% (after the phone tries to boot to download mode, if I'm not mistaken) I get an error message.

So I tried the LG Flashing Tool, it did the same thing only I couldn't read the error message and other prompts, all I saw on the screen was many question marks (?) instead of letters, how do you read this thing?

As I mentioned before, I have an LG D852 from Fido. It had MM 6.0 until recently and because I couldn't find a way to root it on stock MM, I found a way to downgrade it to Telus LP 5.0.1.

I managed to get it rooted and I can't find a way to install TWRP on it. I tried many different TWRP files for my model and many different methods to install it.

I tried ADB, Flashify, TWRP Official App and nothing worked. I keep seeing that the installation was successful but when I boot to recovery, I keep getting red/blue led flashes on a black screen.

I take the battery out or press Vol - and the phone boots fine.

I do receive messages to OTA upgrade to MM. So far I ignore that message, should I try it?

Is there someone who can help me either get TWRP or at least install stock ROM on my phone again?

Thank you,

Hello again,

I think I finally figured out what I did! I extracted the laf.img file in order to get TWRP installed and since TWRP never installed, I now can't get into download mode.

The strange thing is that I have two laf.img files, one on my internal storage and one on my SDcard. The one in internal storage is 16.5MB and the one on the SDcard is 32MB.

How do I know which one to install? Is there any difference at all? Could there be problems if I install the wrong one?

Thank you,
[G3 General] threehappypenguins:
I never used the LG UP tool (couldn't get it to work), so I'm not sure about that one. However, with the flash tool, I also got a bunch of question marks and errors. I just left everything alone, and it did its thing and rebooted with the new OS. Try it again, but leave everything alone for a while and be patient.
[G3 General] AlpineMan:
Thank you for this! I followed it step by step and I was able to get Fulmics ROM after root and getting TWRP installed via Autorec. However, I noticed that on all 3 of the D852's, whenever I powered off the phones, at times the phone would not power on unless I do a battery pull. It doesn't happen all the time, it happens most of the time. I replaced the battery, the USB cable, and charger...no go.

Recently, I acquired a couple of D850's. I couldn't find Autorec for the D850 w/ MM. So I did the following to get Fulmics ROM:

1) Downgrade D850's to kitkat using LGUP.

2) Installed Stump Root: https://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/orig-development/root-stump-root-lg-g3-sprint-verizon-t2850906

3) Reboot phone

4) Install Super SU from Playstore, then launch it. Update Super SU binary using "Normal" method from within the app.

5) Reboot phone

6) Install Flashify from Playstore.

7) Download TWRP 3.0.2 for D850 from twrp.me

8) Backup boot and recovery partitions in Flashify

9) Flash TWRP 3.0.2 using Flashify and choose reboot when prompted.

10) Upon phone boot, TWRP boots.

11) Wipe all except MicroSD card (this is where I have the Fulmics ROM .zip file stored). Perform this step 3x.

12) Install Fulmics ROM

The D850 worked great! No power down/power up issues unlike the D852. So out of curiosity, I attempted to downgrade the D852 to Kitkat to follow the same steps above instead of using AutoRec to get TWRP. Unfortunately, the downgrade process failed using LGUP (phone not recognized) and LG_Flash_Tool_2014 (aborts after a few seconds). I was able to downgrade all D852's using the "TOT Method" per instructions found in https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2785089 using LG FlashTools V1.8 - Setup_LGFlashTool_1.8.1.1023.exe - 9.3 Mb as suggested in that post. I downloaded the D852 TOT kitkat ROM from here: http://stockroms.net/file/LGG3/D852/Rogers/BIN_LGD852AT-01-V10b-302-720-JUL-15-2014-0.zip

Once I got the D852 downgraded to Kitkat, I followed the steps above starting at step #2. For step #7, I downloaded TWRP 3.0.2 for the D852: https://dl.twrp.me/d852/twrp-3.0.2-0-d852g.img.html

After performing those steps on one of the D852's, I tested power down/power up a bunch of times. It worked flawlessly...no need to do a battery pull. I went ahead and did the above steps for the rest of my D852's. No issues whatsoever any more on power down/power up on all 3 D852's.
[G3 General] threehappypenguins:
Now that you mention it, I noticed the same issue! If it runs out of the battery and shuts down, and won't power up without a battery pull. But I didn't install any custom ROM's. I simply rooted it and left it alone. So it must be an issue with rooting.

To install recovery, is using ODIN the only way? (I have not access to a windows computer at the moment)

Is it possible i use fastboot?

And thank you for your work!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] CostasV23:
Download the twrp.img from twrp site preferably 3.0.20 and then install flashify and flash the .IMG file this works with no pc and only if you have SuperSU installed and root access. Hope I helped
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] nemuro:
I used flashfire on google play (free) and flashed recovery twrp.

After that, reboot in recovery and flash the rom. I had to first do a wipe/cache wipe before it installed the cm12 without issues.

Then you install gapps, reboot and be patient.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] CostasV23:
turns out i needed the twrp file of danil to work installed fine now. Upon boot i got a kernel is not seandroid enforcing . Set warranty bit: kernel then it proceeded to start booting is it normal?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] davsebamse:
Downloaded latest twrp from their page.

However I did follow the guide of how to install from another version of twrp. That did not work!

So I had to use Odin to flash the lastest twrp to my phone.

I cannot install the package as well, because is says the package is for serranoveltexx you have serranovelte

I can install the CM11 just fine.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] Danil_e71:
Installing recovery_work.zip for CM12 is necessarily!!

New recovery cnahges:

Changed name from serranovelte to serranoveltexx, because my build have serranoveltexx name.

New recovery installing:

Put recovery_work.zip to Micro SD(or Phone memory)

Reboot recovery, install recovery_work.zip

Reboot recovery

And now you can install CM12.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] CostasV23:
You must install the recovery file danil provides on his first post

then it works like a charm

3. Install recovery_work.zip

4. Reboot to recovery

5. Install CM12

6. Install GApps

7. Boot to system

Yes, this is message about Custom kernel)It is normal)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] CostasV23:
Bug reporting :

Phone reboots at random intervals when enabling disabling WiFi or data from status bar . Sometimes the fb messenger app can't connect to Internet while the phone can . Other issue is audio fx that cuts out every audio output when on so it must be disabled and last applications such as fb messenger notification sounds are way waaayy lower than they should be . This much I have so far . Pretty stable nonetheless

Another thing is it drains battery fast don't know if needs calibration for first time and another important thing is that if the phone sits with closed screen for too long or you were doing something hardware demanding before locking screen the phone doesn't respond to button presses for 5 minutes.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] CostasV23:
Danil if you can boost the sound for application notifications such as fb messenger and in audio calls . both are low especially notification sounds . in call Audio needs a boost cause in louder environments you can't hear anything even at max volume

---------- Post added at 07:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:15 PM ----------

Also folders are 2x2 and are small scrollable squares and there is no option to change that so yeah take a look into that also
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] Danil_e71:
Ok)tomorrow i'll to try fixit)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] CostasV23:
So Danil super serious bug needs immediate fix . When the phone is turned off it can't charge . It shows the warranty bit kernel error and it doesn't begin to charge . If you can fix it would be perfect
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] nemuro:
So far, I can confirm the battery drain, it does drain quite faster than stock, but it gets easily through a day with low to moderate use.

Although it's quite snappy, Youtube video playback on Chrome has the video and audio out of sync. Video moves slower.

Add-on dictionaries for other languages wouldn't list additional languages I could install work for the stock keyboard so I had to reinstall google keyboard from google play, and then it worked.

I can confirm IR Blaster works for me as well.

later edit: Don't think it's a bug but an issue of CM12 in itself, I can't seem to use the phone and camera shortcuts on the lockscreen. Although I start swiping from a corner it doesn't always register the swipe, and when I finally nail it, it sometimes decides not to launch the phone or camera, This happens especially with the camera.

P.S. Any way of disabling the need to swipe twice to access quick settings in the notification drawer?It's super annoying.

I mean other than the shortcuts in the corner. I would like to always show the quick settings when I open the notifications drawer.

P.S.2 Although I am all into this google material design, damn it has a crapload of colors, it's like a skittles UI. Wished CM had an option to stick to one-two colors max
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] CostasV23:
Lockscreen shortcuts work for me . Also about colours change to a theme you like in theme engine . Google keyboard is better than the aosp that's for sure . I only use YouTube app which works great . Only thing it doesn't have cardboard mode that is compatible with phone

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Original Android Development] GoeyBLN:
The sliding is Android 5.1 Feature, cause the Phones made for 5.1 dont have the physical Buttons anymore.

You can deactivate this feature in the Settings.
