You very likely brick your device if you try. Questions about specific devices need to be asked in their devices specific forum.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] twidledee:
I need information, programs, files to boot up my new sweetheart, Elsa.

She is a tmobile h918 v20. I last saw her in Stock 10j then I rooted her on 2/2/17. We played around together for a bit and got disinterested with what we had.

We then decided to abandon Nougat 7.0 for Lineage v7.1.1 which went real good. Then I wanted to use gaps kernel which I flashed and put Elsa into a coma.

I did surgery on my dearest Elsa with TWRP resizing formating and wiping. Delvic/Art was a bane. So I brought out the heavy guns and used F2fs on him. For over an hour dalvik and twrp battled. As the battle raged on it looked as if twrp would win and dalvik submit.

The last 20 minutes I had to keep Elsa cool due to the raging fever produced within from the warring factions. Fearing the worst I pulled her battery... Nooo! I feared that Dalvik or Art used their Nuclear bomb in their defeat.

Booting Elsa into recovery with volume down+power I got back to Team twrp. Over and over I asked what happened... Please answer me... WAKE UP!!!

Twrp didn't wake up. It was just an image with no life left. That was the last time I seen team twrp.... I've tried all day to recall them back into service. Nothing... Cry cry...

Now I research. I believe that if I can produce a Bootable micro SD card I can use it to reanimate my sweetheart Elsa and we can frolic with Andy and all the wondrous realms.

Please help me... resurrect Elsa

I need files, instructions, links, programs.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jinkerz9430:
Lol Well.. This turned out to be an interesting reading. What about fastboot? can you go into fastboot? does the phone even turns on at least? :eek:
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] twidledee:
Hello.Hello

:silly:

She does turn on. There's 3 stages currently. A .001 (seconds)LG gif splash followed with the orange google boot (4 seconds) corruption warning ending with the Life's Good tm (hours). That's all. It will not advance any further.

It won't go back into twrp recovery except the initial showing I mentioned in my previous post. The Imei splash appears on que with the upvolume+power button.

I can't get to it with adb or fastboot.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] twidledee:
I have an idea on using Rufus to make a Bootable USB drive converting twrp, Nougat+ lg firmware+whatever with PowerIso, using ubuntu Linux as the os of the Bootable USB under fat32. Which Ive been tackling all day. _shrug
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jinkerz9430:
But here is my idea. You have done the process of rooting before already (which included going into fastboot mode) >> unless there is another way now. and also of pushing TWRP by using ADB. Now, if you can go into fastboot mode once again, that is: http://www.hardreset.info/devices/lg/lg-v20/fastboot-mode/ >> to make it easier to do, then you just have to repeat the steps to push the TWRP into the system once again and chances are somewhat high that it would fix the issue. If it doesnt, you wont lose anything.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] twidledee:
Oop. A video of it didnt post.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jinkerz9430:
I take it that the video (which is not posted) showed that you couldnt go into fastboot. right?

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] twidledee:
Thank you for the save. I been up all night actually unpacking 91810j kdz and reading.

So in fastboot in order for me to get those files into my i tried i did

fastboot flashall -p GENERIC_ANDROID_DEVICE /sdcard/ [twrp.img]

I pissed off adb and fastboot both who slammed the door on my face.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jinkerz9430:
DId it worked? when you pushed twrp.img , did it say wait for it to complete? and did it finish?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] twidledee:
Adb wouldnt look at elsa.

Fastboot saw but push wouldnt work so i tried flashall, flash -p /sdcard

Spent majority of the time surfing and reading.

whats the a cmd on fastboot to push twrp.img in or is it twrp.zip?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jinkerz9430:
wait. what method are you using? because i was refering to try from step 3 and beyond from jcadduono's thread to root the v20.

have you installed the lg v20 h918 driver on your computer? go to device manager and see if it is there. if it is not then install the lg v20 driver, then reboot your computer just in case, and see if then it does detects the driver. If you already have the drivers uninstall it and install it back again

So android and google is the dominators.

Lets retract a bit ,!,

I root h918j stock with dirtycow method. I played around with overclocking and benchmarked really well. Got bored and wanted to see what 14.1 lineage 7.1.1

So I wiped 7.0. Flashed lineage and mistepped flashing gaps which looped me with my custom bootloading screen (i replaced tmos) Effed with the partioning, battled with delvik/art cache in ext4fs format with threw it into a formating loop.

Now phone boots into recovery. Only way in is with fastboot..

Ive tried

Fastboot flash -p /data twrp.img

/data twrp.zip

/data recovery.img

/data recovery.zip

/storage

/system

Im exhausted

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Team DevDigitel:
How about the fastboot erase recovery command

Same result failed?

Do you have a kdz for the phone. You can use lgup tool to fix it if you have a kdz for that variant

Rename ur twrp to recovery.img and try. Name size may be issue
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Team DevDigitel:
How to enter recovery:

Pull battery and put back in

Hold volm down and power

Once lg logo shows up

Let go of power for 1 second then rehold it

Dont let go of volm down at all..

If you get menue asking yes or no

Choose yes both times

It will boot into twrp in a min or 2

Jesus Ive got to get out more lol. i actually had the resounding voice in my brain
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Team DevDigitel:
Well it looks like you still have those partitions. Thats good

Im not sure why :format: is working but erase didnt.

I wonder if you can do

Fastboot format ext4 system

Maybe it formatted to diffrent structure.

The kdz method is last resort to revive a brick.

Need to involve a verizon dev here

Let me find [MENTION=4591212]me2151[/MENTION] or tidle as they are more informed on this variant.

Did you try formatting phone using some other tool 1st?

This concerns me and you may need the ( pit ) file for the device to replace the partitions that have been changed.

We need a vzw dev to awnser why its accepting format but bot writing. You obviously can write to it

---------- Post added at 06:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:20 PM ----------

Need only kdz.. As tot is for diff tool

Grab lg up and use it to push full kdz to phone.

This will unbrick almost anything if lg up tool can see it and write to it
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] me2151:
The reason it says unknown command is because it is a TMO variant. Meaning it doesnt not HAVE those fastboot commands. What he needs to do is KDZ restore it then reroot using recowvery.

918 bootloader has no Write/flash command access.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Team DevDigitel:
Thank you man. I thought that was a possibility

Listen to him bro

Use lgup and the tmo kdz youve got.

Let it full restore. I can assist with data recovery also later

Im on the road now.. But i trust his awnser 100%

You cant fastboot the tmo variant. No read write

Yes. I used twrp v3.0.2-1 after stock H918j Nougat followed by Lineage 14.1 which I flashed Gaps over (I was trying to dual)

I wanted to zero the card. So I hit every Partition with fat32 with a format and a Resize.... Oh THAT'S RIGHT!!! I Remember why I started to hit the cards extra hard. /System was Zero space in every sector. No space allocation, 0 size, 0 mbs...

I started with that formating and resizing which worked on fat32 but Delvik/Art wouldn't play nice so I used ext4fs and that went on for about 70minytes when I finally pulled the battery do to device temperature and the final sentence said done. I've got photos of the del/block/ada18 and 19 sectors resisting but TWRP cleared and the partitons were resized nicely

Hello :)

I just been out verifying my phones stock firmware for h918TN 8668 elsa

So Ive been torn between 10i or 10j. I vaguely remember doing a test in the past that did a test on hardware or was it software.... i chose Kdz or was it kdz? in the test and it couldn't find any kdz or krz... vaguely recall it.

Anyways. im looking at the information that's on the phone directly under the battery. Model# LG-H918 FCC# ZNFH918

H/W 1.0

S/W: V10c|

Do I install V10c as my stock?

Information that was in the about phone before I rooted

SW: H91810j

build: NRD90M

Kernel; 3.18.31

amdroid securitu patch 12.1.16

security software version MDF v.20 rls 4

Bootloader unlocked

unrooted
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Team DevDigitel:
Dosnt matter

As long as it's H918 the version shouldn't matter

J/C just is the version identifier..

It looks like J is older then C. I belive tmo has same anti rollback 0 so you should be able to go to either without issue.

Did you use LG UP tool and push the kdz to phone and repair it yet?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] twidledee:
Not yet. Im getting my ducks in order
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] twidledee:
Im confused though. you say j is older than c?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Team DevDigitel:
Or vise versa i dont have tmob variant

Version here zv3 zv4 zv5

Sprint is 3 4 5 revisions..

But i don't belive tmo is antirollback as you can restore either version with KDZ. The lgup program for Windows will select the kdz and connect to your phone and restore it..

Once this is done you can follow tmo process to get twrp

Then go to a rom listed (h918) and flash via the devs instructions.. Im just very confused on why theres 2 or 3 posts for the same instruction to unbrick/restore your device.

Are you aware of the lg up tool ?

What kdz file do you have?

Lgup will refuse to flash a kdz to wronf device or if its antiroll vack and you chose older version. Im unsure where the confusion is here.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] twidledee:
Well I have to say that this has ben a blast. This phone is incredible. Making mistakes and being able to correct them. Thats what this phone is wonderful at. Ive gone from stock h918j to rooted dirtycow H918j method to lineage Os 14.1 to soft brick. Persistence and patiently getting back to twrp after 3 days while researching other folks' Q&A on the xpa board, interjecting my own inquiries as well.

From twrp to another install of Lineage OS 14.1 Unofficial+gaps. I disliked that my secondary screen

didn't function anymore and that the Lineage OS had no support. I did interact with a Lineage staffer that was stressed out and had nothing productive to or useful information. He reminded me of a rent a cop and pepper that had no business interacting with the public.

Honestly I would have stayed on board and helped test Lineage Os, give my inputs and risk the overall health of my $900 device. I uninstalled That OS less than an hour later. ANyways...Uninstalled Lineage 14.1. Then to a KDZ H918 stock i then j install with the tutelage of LG Uppercut back to Dirty Cow Root method. I've been busy moving things around and making new contacts. My plan is to make eforts to improve upon the j kernal for my own interest and hobby. I am a hobbyist with early 90s scripting experience. Now I will be giving it a go with 10j kernel provided by Tilde88 and [MENTION=5672995]jcadduono[/MENTION]. I am going to use official sdk materials and tools provided by the Qualcomm website that I personally downloaded to tweak the snapdragon 820 quad core, the modem, camera, and other hardware to fit my own interests. Wish me luck :)
