I managed to root my new V20 using this guide, and even installed the WETA ROM. It took me about 15 hours and many many failed attempts, but here I am. I mostly blame an excessive amount of alcohol, but I will also say the OP could be a LOT more explicit and logical. For example, just look at the numbering of the steps.

I definitely appreciate the work of OP, but as someone who has released OS tweaks/hacks, I always tended to be very detailed and meticulous with instructions and alerted folks to potential delays and hiccups.

Anyway, I'm rooted and I am very grateful for this guide and the necessary files.

Maybe this will fix my phone!! Sprint repair center couldn't flash or fix it, they said I have to replace it with my insurance ... basically when u boot up, it stays on the LG logo.. it does go to fastboot mode, which tells me I might have a chance and hope I didn't brick it.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
The plan was to remake the guide when i released the one click method but all that was lost. I might redo the guide soon to fix unnecessary steps but not quite yet.

I rerooted my sprint version today with no issues..... Follow the instructions and make sure all files are in the correct spot. Thanks to [MENTION=4591212]me2151[/MENTION] for the root method!

does anyone have a mirror for the ls997 rom posted in the op?..android filehost is running soooo sloooow...dog crap dries faster then its downloading..
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] sykoj82:
Yeah I'm still trying.. not having any luck with windows so Idk if I should install Linux and try it that way or what.. only have download mode available and it just won't recognize device.. installed drivers , tried different computers, different windows versions, no go. Somehow I fudge something up after step 2. I Watched a video how to do it.. hoping someday I get it going again and call up sprint repair center just to say I did it with the help of devs from xda, etc.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Chaz187:
If you ran the 3rd step and twrp was installed.... Try doing a battery pull , then from powered off state push volume down and power.... Release power button for a second while still holding volume down push power and hold again. It should boot into twrp... If you get the corrupt screen let it boot into twrp. And do the wipe sequences... Hope it works for ya...

Hi guys, I've been using a LS997 rooted (thanks [MENTION=4591212]me2151[/MENTION] and sorry for your theft!) that was flashed with Team DevDigitel's rom (thanks [MENTION=4731846]Team DevDigitel[/MENTION]) for a while, but now I'm in China on assignment and can't get global roaming / LTE data working. According to the web, the LS997 has the right bands for one of the service providers here, China Unicom, and so I thought it might be a rom issue - on a lark I tried two AOSP roms (lineage and resurrection) that got data working but was lacking too many of the proprietary features of the phone (I'm a cinematographer, the camera's too important to me...)

Then I tried [MENTION=3812611]elliwigy[/MENTION] 's Extreme Syndicate 1.1 but on konverged and werewolf I never got past the bootloops (does anybody have a working combination?)

I wonder if anybody else on a rooted LS997 has successfully used their phone abroad (and on what rom?)

I'll will be here for half a year so don't really want to get a new phone and keep using my still-kinda-new v20!
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
go ahead and give the stock rom a shot on the front page. still need to flash supersu but you will be rooted and it should work until you get back.

I have the Verizon LG V20

followed all the steps and i am now stuck in TWRP.

I installed WETA rom it seems to go ok but boots right back into TWRP also before TWRP I get the triangle message saying its corrupt.

How can I fix this so the phone will boot up? I dont think its fully bricked just stuck in TWRP
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
Of course its not bricked.

Go into twrp manually from the off state by doing vol- and power until you get Lg then ONLY let go of power then hold power and vol- again til you see factory reset. Say yes twice then twrp will load. From there go to reboot then system
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sheon849:

Stuck on Recovery LG V20 Sprint

Hi man,

I followed all the steps to root my LG V20 Sprint and it worked, the phone started with the warning: "this device is corrupt... etc.", but it was displaying some bugs like: "android.app was stopped" or something like that, then I decided to factory reset throug Recovery thinking this could help to fix some issues, but now everytime I power on the phone, it boots on Recovery and the system never power on (or turn on, or start up, sorry for my English). I flashed the boot1.img, then the TWRP.img, but keep getting stuck in the Recovery mode.

LG is pretty different than Samsung devices, so at this moment I think some help from you or anyone who could give me in how fixing this, it would be very appreciated.

Twrp loop fix

As for your crashing apps. Thats because you didnt flash the stock rom. Thats the only reason it would do that. Sprint doesnt follow all the extra directions that the others do. Once you flash the stock rom from page 1 and supersu and you are done

Edit. And NEVER factory reset through twrp on our device. Thats what causes the loop.

OMG! I thougth I finally could fix this issue. I have the same problem, the phone boots in TWRP like if there wasn´t any OS. I followed the steps you mentioned, but after re-flashing, boots into TWRP again :(. This is what is shown in the CMD prompt.

I noticed what looks like a typo in the step3.bat?

fastboot flash boot boot1.img

fastboot flash boot boot1.img

fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-1-us996.img

fastboot flash boot boot1.img

fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-1-us996.img

fastboot flash boot boott.img

fastboot reboot

Should that last flash boot command be boot1.img and not boott.img?

Trying to complete this root process and ran across that line while troubleshooting.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
I know about it. Doesnt matter so im not changing it. The only way it would do anything is if you have a file named boott.img in the folder
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] GlitterKill:
So, the trouble I am having is this... I was a bone-head and didnt have the twrp .img file in place when I ran the third step. So it never flashed the twrp file and then rebooted as per the step3 script.

I am able to get a connection via ADB still, but am not sure where to go from here. I have tried running step3.bat again once the twrp file was in place, and it seemed to run it ok and then proceeded to reboot. It never got past the animated "LG Life is good Logo". I have tried some other things, like trying to boot straight into recovery, but cannot get the phone to do it. I can boot to fastboot pretty eassy by just holding down the Vol- butting and plugging in the usb cable (instead of pressing the power button). I just tried running the "fastboot reboot" command and it just did a complete system reboot with me looking at this animated LG logo again.

How long should it take to load the phone os? WILL IT even load it without me fixing something?

Thanks!

UPDATE: Actually, just got recovery to load after about the 10th try. :) Crossing fingers and proceeding with caution. :)

Flashing ROM Done

[MENTION=4591212]me2151[/MENTION] Thanks for your quick answer. I started again from the step 4.1 Sprint and everything went good, but once reboot the screen seems to be distorted. I´m attaching a picture of the issue. Then I can´t proceed with the step 6 because my device is not recognized... I think that´s because the USB Debug should be enabled, but I can´t do that because the screen issue.

[IMG="Screen Distorted"]https://i.imgsafe.org/76b6a26ed2.jpg[/IMG]

I would proceed to pull out the battery, reinsert it and holding VOL+POWER keys until back to bootloader, but if I do that, then I´d have to reset data, and I don´t know if I have to re-start again to the step 4.1 for Sprint.

Please let me know your thoughts.

Regards.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
Ok. You havent been following the guide. That screen is normal. If you look carefully you can see there is writing on the screen. Thats the static boot everyone talks about. Fix is on first page. Now for the reason why you arnt following the guide. You dont do step 6 on sprint. If you read you will see that once you flash the sprint rom and supersu then SPRINT IS DONE. No more steps after. Static fix is in the 2nd post.

[MENTION=4591212]me2151[/MENTION] First of all let me tell you that you are awesome and I want to thank you for guiding me to solve and understand better the procedure of rooting my LG V20 Sprint. I didn´t read carefully this procedure because when I was looking for a root guide, I found this website where it shows all the steps, but missed the difference for the Sprint ones:

http://highonandroid.com/android-root/how-to-root-lg-v20-attsprintverizonkorean/

Then I searched again and realized you´re the owner for this. Then I decided to read the thread, but I didn´t know where exactly could be made a mistake.

My phone is working again, it´s running slow, but it´s alive again. There´s an anoying app that I´m trying to fix. I already clear data from the phone and I disabled the automatic time zone, then restart, but it keeps showing this error.

[IMG="Error App"]https://i.imgsafe.org/7c33cbf164.jpg[/IMG]

Hope to fix it, then unlock it throug Z3X Box.

Refused to boot on stock using linear I like it
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] jimbosi:
Just bought a VS995. I'm coming from a Note 3 in which I unlocked the bootloader. Would it be possible to go so far as unlocking the bootloader, but installing a stock rom or a rom with which root can be toggled? I want to install the bootloader to prevent a VZW OTA from updating, but I'm not sure I want to root yet. Android Pay and Pokemon Go (I think) are sensitive to root. Finally, there are known bugs on the first page (FM radio, YouTube, and so on)--have they been corrected? TIA for responses. Cheers!
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
Vs995 does not need to flash anything other than twrp and bootloader. It uses the stock rom already. All bugs were caused by debug kernel. Thats fixed by using your stock bootimage that is automatically backed up. I am able to hide root on my phone fine by using rootswitch. I can use snapchat, android pay, and pokemon go just fine.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] jimbosi:
stock

So I can unlock the bootloader, then do a factory reset to reinstall the factory image?

Also, are there any significant bugs that may make me regret unlocking the bootloader?

Tks for the response!
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
Nevernevernever factory reset. You will go into a twrp loop. The device will reset when you root. Main bugs are static on boot( there is a workaround) and vs995 vibrates during boot sometimes.

But yea once you install bootloader and get into twrp go back into bootloader(fastboot) and type

Band support looks same as International http://i.imgur.com/wz8DvyD.jpg
[HTC One A9] The_scam:
Sorry, as the model is not the same, I would not risk buying a phone which doesn't support the ROM you deserve. Can you get it somewhere else as an a9?

I believe that you can buy it from htc's website. If your looking for installments/monthly payments. They offer PayPal's installment program
[HTC One A9] CSnowRules:
Technically speaking, the phone is considered the HTC One A9s, model 2PQ9100, FCCID NM82PQ9100. The hardware is identical to any other A9 UHL variant.

IF the phone can be can be rooted, I'm pretty certain that you'll be able to s-off with Sunshine and do a full conversion. Maybe [MENTION=2376614]jcase[/MENTION] knows more.
[HTC One A9] jcase:
Never heard of it, what CPU does it have?
[HTC One A9] CSnowRules:
MSM8952, it's a rebadged HIA_AERO_UHL.
[HTC One A9] jcase:
yeah if htcdev.com doesnt work, sunshine could do it if root was achieved
[HTC One A9] The_scam:
Even if you couldn't flash cm13, it would definitely be able to run Supersu, as it is obviously some variation of hiae, you could flash TWRP.
[HTC One A9] CSnowRules:
Here's the catch...

Unlock bootloader>flash TWRP>install SuperSU>use Sunshine to s-off ---the device could then (in theory) be converted to the desired A9 MID/CID, and be like any other non-Sprint A9

OR

(Somehow) get root with locked bootloader>Sunshine bootloader unlock and s-off ---same result

If the bootloader can't be unlocked, and there's no way to root otherwise, then the device will be locked down tight until a root exploit is achieved.
[HTC One A9] The_scam:
It should still be able to be unlocked, it is solely based off a model number.
[HTC One A9] CSnowRules:
That's true, unless the carrier has prohibited unlocking and/or htcdev doesn't support this carrier branded variant, which is possible. There's just no way to know without additional information.

I wonder if there's a RUU for this device...
[HTC One A9] The_scam:
I would go for it, you can always return it if it doesn't work.
[HTC One A9] anunknwon:
I have this device and its rootable also have Oct update too. do not much different from unlock device.
[HTC One A9] CSnowRules:
Awesome! That means that a full conversion to unlocked should be possible. Are you going to have the first known converted Signature Premium?
[HTC One A9] anunknwon:
Haha thanks I think. The difference here when I flash recovery and unlock I needed to go to bootloader mode not in download mode. (similar to another device)

My phone full root now. And well function. About conversion? Maybe if this model no longer receiving updated (I mean unlocked device)
[HTC One A9] CSnowRules:
It's pretty strange that fastboot is implemented differently than with the A9. It would be logical for the Telstra to share a similar firmware base.

Do you mind posting the output of fastboot getvar all and cat /proc/emmc? (remove your IMEI of course)
[HTC One A9] anunknwon:

[HTC One S9 Questions & Answers] nuts77:
OK... That's a Root method. That's not how you flash a RUU. You can't flash an RUU from recovery.

You need to flash from fastboot (computer) or rename and place on root of your SD card and start in download mode.

I suggest you search and read tutorials on how to do that ;)
