Looks like I can't delete my reply. I had a problem after rooting and I had either misread the instructions to get into recovery or they were typed wrong where I was looking. I finally found a site that gave the correct procedure: vol down+power then at LG screen release power while still holding vol down then hold power again with vol down. I was able to flash a rom at that point. :)

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HyperV1per:
So my friend used a all in 1 toolkit to root his phone but failed when it came to booting into recovery to install su after that he can't boot into recovery, can't factory reset his phone and when he wants to turn his phone on after it has switched off he needs to hold down power+vol up and down as when the batterie is flat the charging icon pops up with the yellow bolt of electricity and the orange light, when this happens the phone is frozen on that screen but he can turn it on.

Just yesterday he saw a tutorial on how to relock his bootloader and start fresh so he can try again to root his phone but now his phone can't even boot it's stuck on the HTC powered by android screen with same issues as b4

The bootloader

He tried to use RRU (latest version) and got error 133
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
That's your biggest mistake ... all in 1 toolkit

There is no such tool that would work on your M8s device.

You need different fastboot not the generic, you need different TWRP (that is made for M8s) and you need the updated SuperSU not the one provided by that old TWRP version that you have in that outdated toolkit.

Again ... you can't simply use any RUU .,.. the one for M8 won't work on M8s.

The RUU that works on your M8s is 0PKVIMG_M8_QL_UL_M60_SENSE70_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.1 _Radio_1.0.U20410.1 @ 60201_20.05_018_F_release_479349_combined_signed.zip

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] khampton_03:
I have rooted many phones before without an issue, and during the root process for this phone, everything was going great, I flashed SuperSU zip in TWRP and rebooted, since it was the first boot I expected a decently long wait, after about 25 minutes I followed the guide's instructions for Verizon since it did say some Verizon users were experiencing long first boot times. I took the battery out like it said, put it back in, then proceeded to fastboot boot2.img, like the guide said. After letting it sit for an hour this time, I got the idea that something was obviously wrong. After multiple attempts with no success I tried to fix it myself. So far I have learned that on the fastboot screen it says my bootloader is locked again, even after unlocking it. I have tried flashing TWRP as a recovery, just to at least have a recovery boot, that does not work either unfortunately. So as of right now, all I have is a v20 that has no OS, a locked bootloader, no way of booting recovery, I can fastboot with no ADB, and its virtually a paperweight. If anyone has a solution to at least get back to Stock, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] lcovel:
I managed to un-brick mines after returning sadly from the Sprint store.

First, get to the boot loader screen and try running thru the steps again, especially step 3. You need to make sure you have TWRP.

Use this link to make sure you can get into the different modes (Download mode, fastboot, etc) http://www.hardreset.info/devices/lg/lg-v20/

Once you can get TWRP to show up,then you are good. In the mean time I downloaded "LS997-deODEXd-signed"

When I got into TWRP, I transferred the file to my phone. Rebooted from TWRP back into TWRP and flashed the ROM.

During my reboots, I do get a message saying my phone is corrupt, blah blahblah, but I just wait a few seconds and it will boot up.

Hope this helps.

I had managed to brick mines only 3 hours after upgrading from my Note 4. It took me from 9pm to almost 2am to get it back up again. I can live with the message about my phone being unbootable until someone comes up with a work thru.

Dirty Santa root is not for the average user who has a couple of experience in rooting.

You have to at least have background on Hard bricking phones to fully understand what you are getting yourself into
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Lumince:
For anyone that isnt on sprint that has "bricked" their phone. There are kdz's that will allow you to reflash back to 'stock". Someone had an issue with the kdz, but it was an easy fix. If you failed the process, it can be restored. Just if it doesnt want to boot, just lock and unlock the bootloader...

If your phone doesnt have a kdz, I know TeamDev is working on a custom kdz for such phones. Don't bug him if it isn't finished as I type this.

Anyone that can't get into TWRP, or has failed the process. Either start back at step 3, or if you have TWRP installed but can't get to it, the manual way to get into TWRP is a pain.

Keep your back cover off and hold the volume down button for ease. Now press the power button and as soon as you see an LG logo, let go and repress the power button. Its tricky.... If you get the corrupted screen, pop your battery out and put it back in quick and repress volume down and power. Usually if Im quick enough the first LG logo will hang a lot longer than usual and that gives me time to enter TWRP. A factory reset screen will pop up. Hit Yes twice.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] yuppicide:
What does that mean? Not for the average user who has a couple of experiences in rooting.

I've only rooted 2 phones, this is my 3rd (maybe 4th). I am on Sprint. Instructions worked fine for me. I did have one hiccup, but it was my fault, and I was able to root just fine. I've been running for a few months now.

I have not flashed any custom ROM yet, I'm going to wait for the next major version of Android to come out. The only mods I've done so far are Titanium Backup install so I can remove Sprint crap.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Jaistah:
it means dirty santa root got a high posibility rate of bricking a device compared to other root methods for other devices and if you have no experience in bricking phones before then you're screwed if it happens to you
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Buzzy42:
Actually, if you follow the directions, almost none of the problems create a true brick-- which means unrecoverable. For most of the cases, you might get a soft brick, meaning you have to back out, use a KDZ to repair it or reflash something else, or start over from scratch and try again-- but usually (maybe with some help from here) you can pull the phone back into a usable state.

I would hazard to guess for the vast majority the process works fine, maybe with a hiccup, but I've not seen many reports of a truly unrecoverable brick from this method. It's complicated, yes, and you need to be ready to read a LOT to understand what's going on, but it seems pretty difficult to end up with a $700 paperweight with this.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] love4stupidppl:
Ok, I managed to brick mine too. It's a VS995, it was running stock 1AC. I used the LGUP tool to downgrade it to VS99512A, and then did Dirty Sanata and TWRP. After booting into TWRP I decided to try lineage OS with Android 8.0, I did not make a backup of the Stock ROM, which was very stupid. Lineage OS 15.1 flashed but I had no cell service so I panicked and instead of wiping it in TWRP and using the backup of stock I should have created, I just opened LGUP and tried to downgrade it back to stock VSS99512A. Well LGUP said it worked, but when it went to boot it would hang at the Verizon logo with 4 pastel dots. Device manager could see an ADB device and I could connect to it with ADB. So I did and read the logcat. I could see it was trying to update as part of the rollback, but it appeared that some components from Android 8x could not be "upgraded" to Andoird 7.x. There was a repeated error about failing to update SQLite instance version from 3 to 1.

The one feature that could fix this is if the refurbish function worked with any of the VS995 KDZ files we all have access to. But alas, none work instead we only get the upgrade function... or so I thought. Somewhere in my search for the past 2 weeks I found a modified LGUP https://xdaforums.com/v20/how-to/guide-patch-lgup-to-unlock-features-t3652222

**Please be warned what I did was absolutely ****ing stupid, and it was sheer luck I didn't screw anything up.**

From what I can tell if you only flash ("LGUP Upgrade") the KDZ from the same model it never clears the partition it just adds to it. My problem was there was stuff from lineage OS 15 stuck on one of the partitions that was making the rollback to stock fail because it kept saying it couldn't update the SQLLite DB from 3 to 1. So no "upgrade" within LGUP would work because the upgrade function does not clear internal storage. But the link above is to a version someone modded so you can force a partition update from any KDZ onto the system. So I started playing around with forcing KDZs from other models onto my VS995, and I noticed when using the Partion DL function with non-VS995 KDZ files it would say something about the partition changing. All I can assume is that the partition layout is so different on each model and it forces LGUP to re-partition the storage.

**Again I state for the record this was stupid, and I'm only fortunate it worked.**

I forced Partion DL of H91510d_00_VTR_CA_OP_1110.kdz, then H990N10b_00_OPEN_HK_DS_OP_1017.kdz, then back to VS99512A_06_1114_ARB00.kdz, then when it booted it gave the Verizon hello, and moved on finally but the setting service kept crashing while it was trying to load the Secure Boot screen. So I yanked the battery and went into the boot menu and did the Factory Reset function, and it worked.

Lesson learned, always make a backup and don't be so hasty to use tools that aren't fully functional (LGUP).

Perhaps what I've done may help others, maybe I've found out how to reimage or unbrick our V20s. Or maybe I just got really stupid lucky.

After about 6 weeks of ownership, I've found my AT&T Tilt to be very reliable. One reboot only during that time, after an odd laptop tethering experience. I'm not running much third party stuff, no registry edits, etc. I have installed Google Maps and OperaMini with good results. Battery life is shorter than my old "dumb" phone, but I expected that. I have no problem with this being my primary cell phone. I prefer Verizon's network, but mostly because AT&T's 3G seems a little less pervasive. No problems with phone service.

I am using Dutty final 7b touch flo. I is amazing. I have not had to reset since I put it on and 7 before that same thing. The only reseting for me has been new roms. lol

I tried Q 1. It was not for me. It was a good rom but I like all the extras in Dutty. PPL were claiming faster speeds, I have found that Duttys is faster for me on my device.

I love the BT voice dial through my Jawbone headset.

HTC Home is great.

I run my own mail server (Kerio) and the push with activesync is 100%

I would say I use the camera the least.

I do not put many programs on.

This is by far the best for me. I love it. I have also had the least amount of issues with this one. So far I have had 1. The newest MS bt voice command will not go through the headset. I have to use the previous.
