The 48A_03 KDZ is in the usual place - my Android File Host link at the bottom of the first post of [MENTION=4795150]annoyingduck[/MENTION] 's stickied return to stock thread in this section.

It is downgradeable, but neither KingRoot v4.82 that worked with 47A, nor the latest v4.96 will root it yet. See post # 7 http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=68055444&postcount=7 below for details and caveat for newer VS985 variants with "K" in model or revision 2 PCB but the summary is the normal 10B TOT method still using the .DLL extracted from the 35B KDZ. Thanks to [MENTION=3892912]swcunn[/MENTION] via this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=68047533&postcount=1441 to make me aware and I downloaded the OTA files just to capture them even though they don't do us any good anymore to try to manually apply them (at least I haven't had any luck and it was the same for a bunch of others).

Still says Android 6.0 in the About screen. June 2016 security patch level.

Its 229.5 MB, has one less bloat app than 47A (Thanks to [MENTION=4031599]DeanGibson[/MENTION] who noticed that Amazon Music isn't on the VS985 any longer here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=68064661&postcount=10), and is larger than all OTAs other than 12Bto23C, 24Bto35B and 35Bto46A.

I repeat again for anyone wondering: there's nothing we can do with the OTA files manually, I'll test rooting directly via KingRoot like 46A and 47A could. If it's possible to make a rooted ROM out of the new update, you'll have to give it some time as likely those more knowledgeable than myself would have to do the real work, and that's if they're willing, have time, and if they volunteer.

And also, for those who don't know, don't expect a KDZ to come out for at least a week if at all.

Thanks to [MENTION=6272771]maximusmullivan[/MENTION] for the hint that the update information was available on Verizon's site. LG's site still is at 46A. http://www.lg.com/us/support/product-help/CT10000027-1414534794596-software-updates

[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Warning/encouragement when trouble flashing TOT/KDZ

Let this be a warning and encouragement for whenever anyone has trouble flashing a TOT or KDZ on any LG device.

Last night I attempted to flash the 22B TOT for my VK810 LG G Pad 8.3 and then the 10B TOT for the VS985 LG G3. The VK810 was successful, the VS985, not so much and was indeed a huge amount of frustration. At this point I will admit I did something extremely stupid while the TOT was (as far as I know successfully) beginning to flash to the VS985, but I can't know for certain if it affected it since I was successful later as described below. I was even going so far as to try to force it into QHSUSB_BULK 9008 mode - I was unsuccessful doing so - either I was shorting the wrong pin since it's so tiny and all the light I could muster at 1 AM wasn't enough at least close by the PC where I had to connect the USB cable to, or the paper clip I was using wasn't making a good enough or any connection, or I just had dumb "luck" in hindsight and the Android dieties were looking after me.

Flashing the TOT on the VS985 was showing all sorts of communications errors even though for the VK810 it went off without a hitch. This is on a VERY new and VERY high end PC I just built a month ago, with Windows 10 x64. I've previously flashed TOTs on a different Windows 10 installation on an older PC I had built before. I was using the latest driver.

I suspected last night but I didn't feel like messing around anymore and didn't swap cables with another original LG OEM one. This morning I tried everything but with the other USB cable on a completely different PC I never flashed from before, using the latest drivers again and it succeeded the very first time. What a relief! I'll have to put the aluminum metal shield and all the screws back in later, but it's booted up and working 100% on 10B right now. The case I have holds it all together just fine. Now my plan is to flash the 47A KDZ and take the 48A OTA, try downgrading and if successful, do it all again and try Kingroot - probably the same version I had tried four months ago on 46A and 47A since I think I still have it. I'll probably try my manual partition downgrade method as well since I'll be in the ideal position to test it yet again.

Update: I was still able to flash the TOT on my VK810 successfully without effort on the first PC - the one that I had trouble flashing the TOT on my VS985, although I'm using a different cable - the one that I successfully flashed my VS985 with at work.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
What the heck is going on with these duplicate posts when I try editing one of my existing posts!??? Weird.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
The phone is done flashing the 10B TOT using the 35B .DLL coming from 100% stock 48A. It's booting now so at least with those with non-model "K" and/or non-revision 2 PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards) are in the clear for re-downgrading.

When I re-upgrade to 48A and try Kingroot, if it's successful the first thing I'll do is pull the partition images just in case a KDZ never comes (hopefully it will).
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Neither KingRoot v4.82 that worked with 47A, nor the latest v4.96 will root it yet.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I'm back on my TWRP backed-up 47A and 35B Bootstack! WOOHOO!
[Verizon LG G3] DeanGibson:
Bye-bye app

I think there were four Amazon apps that I had disabled, and now there are only three. "Amazon Music" is still on my VK815 tablets, but not on the VS985, so perhaps that was it???
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Ah, thank you! By the way, I noticed in the OEM source code zip for the VK810 (I believe the 35A source), there was code for LG Backup. Huh!

Updated my fifth post. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=68054128&postcount=5:

Is 48A 6.0.1 or still 6.0?
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Still says Android 6.0 in the About screen. June 2016 security patch level. Added this info to the OP.
[Verizon LG G3] jlb1959.01:
I'm not the best guy for info, but when I was on stock 6.0 Verizon to me there was update of which your talking about which was to be small changes to problems with battery life, the update was to be 6.0.1 as you know I'm no longer stock Mm, but that's what they told me when I hold a bootloop problem when going from 5.1 to 6.0,at that time they had to give me a new phone as I bootloop ed on upgrade.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
You're welcome!

There's nothing to test, but thanks anyway. Until we either have a method to root 100% stock 48A, or the KDZ arrives, there's nothing to do. And then if we get either it would have to be modified to be nasty KingRoot free and have Bump'd kernel and systemless root. I haven't ever experienced extricating KingRoot from the system.img or bumping and implementing systemless root - it's not too likely I'll find the time to learn this anytime soon.

Edit: Downloaded the 48A_03 KDZ using the official phone Windows tool, uploading to Android File Host now - same place I have all the other KDZs and TOT available to download. Slow upload speed so might take a couple of hours.

[Verizon LG G3] Thee GOC:
Ok, I haven't flashed or rooted in over 2 years. I've been running my G3 on the newest software, 48A, and have had nothing but problems. Since I feel like a newb all over, am I correct in reading the newest 48A doesn't have a root capability to it yet?

Do you need a test subject? I haven't touched this phone since I bought it other than OTA updates that came from Google or Verizon.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Hi! The first post and 8th post tell what I tried and that it failed, and the 7th post details what had always and still works.

I'm not a developer so other than trying new versions of Kingroot (BUT you shouldn't) there's nothing to test, but you don't need me for that.

The only reasons I tried it at all is:

As it was with 46A, it was possible a KDZ would never be released and rooting 48A would be the only way to pull the partitions for anyone to make a ROM out of it. A KDZ did come out a week or so later, so now no reason for that.

There's a relative few who have weird trouble trying to downgrade via the TOT method, at least when they start with 35B and higher, and I have a thread in this section regarding a workaround for the "KS Error" they get when they try it. It requires a working root method and unfortunately Kingroot was the easiest method to try that worked before 48A.

Have you tried a factory reset after using the built-in LG Backup to back up your user apps, user data and select system data, and moving everything you want to keep from your internal storage?

Since you have an older VS985, you probably don't have to worry about this but if the small printed model number under your battery has a K in it such as VS985WK or other examples, then you can not downgrade from 48A at all (so no root or custom recovery).

Otherwise you can downgrade via the TOT method to root, put TWRP on and flash whatever ROM and the appropriate Bootstack for the ROM that you want.

I am habing that usual "sim card not working" issue i wonder if 48A update can fix it.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klingimal:
Hi I have a ZE551ML and it is in a pretty sturdy case. The other day it took a fall and since It is unable to charge and the sim/sd card slots don't work. After watching a few teardowns I am guessing the fall knocked one of the connectors loose (since the one connector in question would support all of what has stopped working). I set up an RMA but am afraid to send it in because it has 9% battery left and I have a ton of pictures that I would like to get off and all of my accounts are synced and I am not sure I would be able to unsync them in time and do a full restore.

Does anyone have experience with ASUS RMA and how they handle data recovery or will the just blast the phone when they get it? Also is it worth biting the bullet and popping it open to see if that connector is indeed loose?

The phone is in pristine shape thanks to the case and still in warranty. I am afraid to break the warranty screw just to see if it is just a conector.

Any help is appreciated.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tilde88:
First things first, I'm extremely savvy in Android / cell info.

As the title says, anytime I load up something that uses GPS, it turns on the GPS, and cycles the cellular radio. I've tried QPST, factory image flashing, radio flashing, reset AGPS, downloaded new AGPS. Tried every GPS Tools app there is. Calibrated GPS.

If I disable GPS, and only use Data for location, it does not do this.

I've noticed that the APN table gets corrupted sometimes. Doing a reset to default restores all APNs, but adding the APN manually does not activate Data (even though the info is correct).

If I set the Preferred Network Type to LTE Only, and run GPS Status, it will eventually lock GPS location, and keep data active (after cycling the radio off and on), but then after a few minutes, it goes back to LTE, GSM, CDMA preferred, and I'm back at square one. Also, going into Cellular Networks (in Android Settings), and forcing 3G without LTE does the same. My best result seems to be leaving it on 3G in this menus, going into the *#*#INFO#*#*, and then setting it to LTE Only. But again, eventually it reverts, and/or if GPS is turned off at any point, then the cycle has to be started again. This only works for like 15 minutes at a time, so this is not reliable.

Due to this, I can't use any Maps, or even run Speedtests, since it tries to get your location first, and then do the test.

Obviously Pokemon Go is fudged up.

I have spent the last 3 days and nights fighting with my phone, flashing ****, modifying, restoring... I am so frustrated I have actually begun to fling and throw my phone around (very very harshly).

Failing this, I will break it in half, but I can't do that until I have my Note 7...

Please help. I know it sounds crazy, because GPS should not affect the data connection, let alone the ENTIRE cellular radio.

I'm thinking of wiping the EFS partition, but the only backup I have of EFS is from after this whole ordeal started.

IMEI is intact, I can see it with *#06#.

It is worth noting, this all started by Maps locking up (or I suppose the GPS getting messed up and crashing Maps). After I reboot the phone, GPS and Data still worked, but my location was stuck at the same spot, even though I had driven miles and miles away.

Trying to be as thorough as possible to try and get whatever help I can get. Would any debug logs help anyone at all? If so, which.

Thanks in advance!!

Best thing I can recommend, is get on Google Maps, put in somewhere to go... Let it lock GPS. Then go use your app. The problem is only with turning ON the gps... once it's on, and doesn't turn off, you are good to go. Can even play pokemon go. Obviously your batter will be **** but meh... 22000 mAH battery pack.

There's a thread in Q&A, but the short version is that it's a known issue affecting Nexus 6 almost exclusively on carriers worldwide. I haven't found any full workaround. Freezing Google Connectivity Services helps quite a bit, I got about 10 hours out of the data connection that way. But GPS eventually screws it up. Disabling location services is the best option for me right now, I need data more than location.

Google has acknowledged the issue, as has t-mobile. They claim to be working on it. No one knows how long that might take.

---------- Post added at 04:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:35 AM ----------

Think about how strange this legitimately is. All to a sudden, nexus 6 owners are having dropped data with GPS. Not just ones who've accepted an update, not just ones who have rooted and installed custom OS's, just those of us who own nexus 6s'. Its strange, but it makes me think that its a bug within one of their application, possibly connectivity services. I wonder if its all to a sudden appearing because they're editing code to get ready for android n
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tilde88:
Nothing against you... I'm just flustered that I've spent countless hours trying to fix a problem that had nothing to do with me.

The legitimacy is real... But this was a hidden update pushed by Google. I initially thought it was me, then TMO. But its the phone/google/motorola. Just angry of all the time I've wasted.

Download GPS Locker, let it get a lock on. And just don't turn off GPS. The issue only happens when GPS is enabled/activated/awoken. Just leave it on 24/7 and that's all.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skinzy98:
But if its a hidden update how is it effecting those of us who haven't updated a ROM or anything since before august. Is that when this started for you? Because come to think about it that's when mine started lol. I'm thinking its a system app update issue that they were getting ready for android n.

And I completely understand your frustration, I think most of us have been in this situation one too many times, except normally its our own fault lol
