[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Team DevDigitel:
HELP ME PLEASE FOR ISSUES AND FIXES!​

PLEASE READ THESE BELOW BEFORE POSTING WITH A ISSUE, EXPECIALLY TO DIRTY SANTA ETC!!

YOU WILL BE IGNORED IF ON THE LIST!!!​

​

==================================

I Flashed Magisk But No Root?

=====================================

Two ways to approach this one:

Re-flash the whole Rom without wiping. Reboot.

-OR-

Pull the Magisk11.zip from inside the rom under the

/Magisk/Magisk11.zip directory, and flash it by itself and Reboot.

==================================

How do I get into recovery

=====================================

pull battery and put it back in

hold volume down and power.

when lg logo shows up click power and re hold it while still holding vol down.

if you do it right in about 4 seconds or so it will boot to a menu, choose yes both times and you'll be back in TWRP.

====================================

Stuck in a endless boot loop to twrp

=======================================

1.)Do it from twrp:

Make sure system and data are mounted with Twrp.

We need to clear out some directories causing issues. Once mounted partitions are verified go to advanced and use the file explorer buit into TWRP.

We need to delete the entire "Fota" and "Misc"

locations.

They are located under these locations

Don't worry if they aren't all there.

Delete any/all of these:

/fota

/misc

/data/fota

/cache/fota

/data/misc

/etc/fota

/system/etc/fota

Then reboot from TWRP. This should fix the issue.

Or

2.)Requires Pc and Fastboot setup already.

Pull battery and put back in, hold vol down and pulg into pc

phone will boot to Fastboot*

Now on pc send these commands via command prompt

Fastboot erase misc

Fastboot erase fota

Fastboot erase cache

Fastboot reboot

still stuck? go back to fastboot as stated above

Try this as well

fastboot erase system

unplug and pull battery and put it back in,

dont plug back in, lets try to get into recovery,

hold volume down and power.

when lg logo shows up click power and re hold it while still holding vol down.

if you do it right in about 4 seconds or so it will boot to a menu, choose yes both times and you'll be back in twrp.

restore backup or re-flash a rom again..

Good-Luck!

===================================

Locked out of device after restore / dirty flash

pin # / pattern / Fingerprint wont work?

=======================================

Steps:

Boot into Twrp ( if you dont know how see above steps on how to access twrp

Using the TWRP file manager navigate to this location

/data/system/locksettings.db

delete this file and reboot device, your pin/lock is now gone.

==============================

Some apps wont login or work

===================================

These may also quire the troublesome app to be uninstalled first/and re-installed after steps completed. This is semi generic.

Alternative 1:

Download this app from the playstore to

download the latest versions of google play services,

Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.weberdo.apps.serviceinfo

Open app and use it to force a update

It gives you 3 options to do so

once done reboot into recovery and clear cache and dalvik-cache

this should resolve the issue once completed

Alternative 2:

Try fully un-rooting. This will require you go into the settings

and choose full unroot. When super su asks to replace with stock image,

say no. The phone will need to reboot after it has complete. Once rebooted

try to login to the application and see if it worked. If yes then get everything logged in and then pull the supersu zip from the rom (this will be in the rootzip folder) Take it and flash it using twrp. It will reboot atleast once. Do not disrupt the process!

Alternative 3:

Depending on build you now have the alternative option to switch to fully Magisk and the phh superuser app. This is still some uncharted territory with Magisk and what exactly it does to force hide root. In the Magisk manger app you can choose to hide root. This may be buggy but have the app downloaded and go to sign in after enabling this option. If this works you are more then likely fighting the battle with safetynet and its not something I currently have much support or full understanding of. Goodluck!

=====================================

Hostpot/Tether Settings Missing

Other SystemUI things gone

======================================

Its best to do this on wifi but do it as you wish

Steps:

go to dialer

enter ##27269# (##BRAND#)

Hit Yes if prompted to do so,

the phone will reboot and add the carrier branded files back

and replace the systemui setup with the correct one!

Other Codes that do the same thing essentially : ##UPDATE# ##72786#

These will not erase any user data, so dont be worried!

=====================================

Storage Showing 0mb in Twrp? Device cant wipe any data?

=======================================
​

This may show error 150 in twrp when trying to wipe any data.

All of your data is gone either way, this will hopefully fix the device.

Steps: This requires twrp access still,

Go under wipe,

and choose Advanced wipe,

once there choose repair/change file system

after clicking repair file system you will now see all of your storage options here.

The storage will need to be wiped with the EXT4 Option.

You must only select 1 at a time, and they all must be wiped to resolve this issue.

Do each one down the list, and wipe every storage location 1 by 1. Once done,

back out and check to mount each partition. This show now be successful.

I would go ahead and flash a clean rom or go and restore from a backup.

*This can also fix issues with some sd cards being corrupted*

=====================================

Cant Get Service? No Calls or Text But LTE works?
