No where does cm rom state its for the ls997.

Its a alpha rom only for 1 variant. No one has attempted to rebuild the kernel for the ls997 for cm.

The device tree is 150gb. And if i build via source i have to publish my source code for gpl. And i dont have time to decompile. Recompile and the put source out for a cm build atm. In future yeah. But its still in Works for others atm.

I know bt was really buggy using the us996 kernel. The stock sprint kernel resolved the issues as far as i know. If you havent done a full wipe and format data after dirty santa do so.. Then flash this rom and see how it works. Just to make sure your using the ls997 right?

and yes. Device is going to show as us996 because it's running its debug bootloader, same reason we have static and it dosnt on boot. The boot.img is failing check for correct image and distorting display. Ive made a kernel post to start unified work to build a kernel that stops this. But again to abide by gpl its a big project

​

Sounds like you didnt wipe data. And your old sc is still being

Overriden. Make sure you wipe all. Cache.system.data.dalvik. and do a format data also. Id wipe internal to be fresh start.

I use snap chat a ton and have clean installed all versions with no issues. Your probably restoring sc from google on 1st boot witch is a no no.

I dont us tb for my apps either. I just re-install, and if im planning on being on the go i have a flashable zip for all my go to apps to be installed lol

Attention all

i need help!

I need a full stock system backup.

Not just any backup. I need a clean one. And what i maen by clean:

I need a phone that was on zv5. And rooted with dirty sanata. After you rooted you made a full backup of the phone before you ever flashed anything using twrp.

If anyone has a ls997 unrooted on zv5 that is willing to root it for the cause please let me know.

I need you to stop after step 3 in dirty santa.

Youll have twrp and a non booting phone at this point and about to flash the stock rom. Dont!! Please make a backup of system and the system.img and send to me. Please dont post a full backup that has ur efs backed up. Pm me and ill delete that part and just use the system. I cant stress enough that it must be a backup made of zv5 and nothing can be done to the system. It must be right after dirty santa is complete.

Please and thank you
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] elijah420:
this is sadly correct.

the copy on write bug (which dirtycow was named after) was fixed. this phone now needs a new exploit to be able to root.

i would imagine that anyone who receives a replacement/refurb/whatevs is going to be disappointed if they expect to root.

this is sort of the double edged sword of the matter... need the exploit to root. once you publish the exploit, the vendors know about the exploit, and are able to patch it out. no more hole.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] me2151:
That is correct. HOWEVER THE GOOD NEWS IS they did not target dirtysanta specifically. meaning if we get a new exploit it can be easily adapted to use dirtysanta

Look at screenshot.

This is the only page youll use on cdma workshop for prl change.

Youll need ur msl for this as you'll need to send it to phone 1sr before it will let you write..You will need to download a prl for your phone to use also. Once you have a 55xxx prl on ur phone youll be able to update it to latest one on phone using update prl again.

When I am in QPST it lists a device on com 3 as LGUS996cd45037f. I thought I might have the wrong driver but when I toggle charging off and change to file transfer and look in Device Manager "This device is working properly". The driver date is 8-23-2016 the driver number is 4.2.0.0. In Device Manager in the V20 Properties Dialog Box under the Event Tab it list this - Driver Management has concluded the process to add Service WUDFWpdMtp for Device Instance ID USB\VID_1004&PID_631C\LGUS996CD45037F with the following status: 0.

---------- Post added at 04:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:50 PM ----------

I am posting this back for others that have the same issue. In the CDMA Workshop I needed to click on the security tab put in my MSL number in the SPC field. Then left click on the SPC button and click send. That unlocked the phone and allowed me to send the PRL file.

Now that the calling is fixed. Now time to fix the static screen. I DL the Kernel from post #3 but I don't know what to do with it. Thanks for all your help and the time and effort you have put into developing the ROM.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Team DevDigitel:
Albatros V1.0 was discontinued due to touch failure. Id suggest avoiding it. We need somone to rebuild the kernel with some debug deivers from the debug kernel to resolve.

Make a efs backup with twrp now lol. So next time a efs restore will resolve ur issue next time.

The wait is 100% based on needing the above requested info. Unfortunately i do not have a clean backup of ZV5 and need one supplied to me to take the ota and apply it. I have a working zip to use but due to system modification i cant apply until i get a full system backup of a zv5 device that had never had a rom flashed.

So until we get a clean backup of zv5 from a new root user or somone who made a backup after doing dirty santa and never had flashed anything to phone yet we wont be getting the rom up to date.

Sorry guys. I can't get it done till i get the files.

Clarifying question [MENTION=4731846]Team DevDigitel[/MENTION]

When switching from SU to magsik and the rom has SU I only have to flash the magsik file and install magsik from the app store right? Should remove all traces of SU??
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Team DevDigitel:
If you want full magisk and no more su?

You would need to go into su and choose unroot and have it restore boot.img only. After its done then you flash magisk rom and dl magisk from play store.

Magisk detects your root method and uses it.

So supersu builds get kept supersu.

No root builds get magisk..

And magisk stays magisk lol

It will be difficult to convince someone to offer a full backup with all of their data attached, won't it? Or is this what you mean by a "clean" backup? Why is a ZV5 backup needed to move to ZV6? You may need to post for this elsewhere because it's going to be a longshot that someone with a backup sees this buried in a ROM thread. :)

[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Team DevDigitel:
[MENTION=3380852]charlie95113[/MENTION]

yes we still need a system.img backup. if anyone willing to share a system backup of zv5 ill take a look at it and try it.

ultimately i need a ORIGNINAL backup, so right after you run step 3 in dirty santa and got twrp, you backup system, and system.img / im not sure witch one ill need but both would be fantastic. Ultimately anything after that point it "custom" as you flashed some type of rom. This is breaking the ota stuff. So anyone who is willing to upload a backup of those things would be great, if it was a backup of a rom you flashed it wont work.

send me a link via pm if its a backup of more then system so its not public, ill pull just the system partition and destroy the rest and notify you when i no longer need the link and you can erase the backup online as well.

Thanks guys

New SD Card - Now I can't boot into TWRP

Now that my phone is back to working, thanks to those of you that helped me out, I wanted to do a back up but not enough space on SD card so I bought a new one. I copied all the files from the old card to the new one but I can't get into TWRP. I hold down the volume and power but it won't get to the option to run TWRP. Any ideas on what to do?
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nexus6r3plicant01:
You hold vol down and power with the phone off.... As soon as you see the splash screen say lg let go of vol down and immediately push it again ..... Then choose yes X2 and it will go into twrp

It has nothing to do with the new card.... Recovery is on internal storage... Do it with the back off the phone and if it gets to corrupt screen just remove battery... And try again it may take 3 or 4 times
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] rajbsn:
While the phone is completely powered off..hold the volume down + Power button and then once you see the LG logo release the power button for a second and hold it again. This is take you to factory reset screen and say yes to reset which will take you to TWRP.

I would say probably not.

chaps my ass, but i think development for the sprint variant of the v20 has gone flatline due to not having a clean zv5.

Chaps my ass because i had a 4gb flash drive with zv5 stock ON it. (I have a box full of identical 16gb drives that I purchased last yr for a im-bored type experiment) and for the life of me cannot find it. I have literally torn my home apart and involved my kids in the search for the missing USB. It will turn up in a year, when the v30 is being mfg'd.

Meh.

Last time I ever not backup on box\google drive, you can bet the farm on that.

Edit : After rereading this, it might come across that I'm directing some flak at someone particular. I'm not. I really am just peeved that I cannot find the backup I KNOW I made. Major peeved.

Sucks that this thing has died on the vine. I started to look into other ROMs, which turns out to be a huge mistake. Now I'm trying to reflash 7.5C and get nothing but bootloop after bootloop. Sigh.

Bootloops huh? I ran into that and ended up flashing 7.0 then 7.5B on top of it. Let me boot. All I did was let 7.0 boot fully, sit for about 15 minutes then flash 7.5B. All C brings is the viper mods.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] bgibson72:
Yeah, I finally got it to go. The System partition would not mount for some reason. I pulled the battery, then booted back into recovery and rebooted from there and it finally took.

Is Viper the only difference between 7.5C and 7.5B? Because I don't really care about it. I'll give it a shot.

On a separate note, is there such a thing as flashing a ROM too much to the point of wearing out the hardware??? The phone gets awfully hot when flashing new ROMs, so I have to think SOMETHING is getting damaged in the process...

You can't just switch from a CM or AOSP rom to a stock android based rom and retain your network connectivity. There's certain steps you have to take that I can't help you with. Hopefully someone in the know will chime in.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] elijah420:
What was it you were attempting to attain?

I understand what you did, but do you? Do you know what you messed up? Reason I ask is because you have a good chance of rendering your telephone useless, permanently. This is not something you should just attempt all willy nilly.

Is your phone a Sprint variant, to begin with?

Why are you asking about GSM on a CDMA phone? Unless your phone is *GSM* , you don't need to be flashing a GSM ROM.

Look around in the questions/answers area​ for a post on how to manually program your sprint phone. A little reading, some decent comprehension skills and you should be hunky dorey.
