Sadly thats not gonna happen .

For android N touchwiz ported roms required note 4 Nougat kernel and note 4 will never get android n official update from samsung.:crying:

At this point only aosp android n roms are available.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yashthemw:
There is a variant of tab s2 which has similar hardware like that of note 4. Luckily, it is getting android nougat officially.

So, we can expect a port once nougat is out for tab s2.

FAQ​

I got confused on which Flash tool to use and with this megalock stuff?

Ans: Thanks, you asked, Just download LG Flash Tool attached in 2nd post, unzip, install tool, there will be a megalock.dll too, copy that to installation folder (by default that's "C:\LG\LGFlashTool") and overwrite, (written in install.instructions too inside zip).

This method isn't working for me, what shall I do?

Ans: The possible reasons, for that not working, might be,

A: You didn't installed drivers properly, try uninstalling old drivers and restarting after that.

B: LG COM PORT isn't set to COM41, here is guide for that.

C: And Most important, You are not following steps in the order in which they are written, so read carefully.

I followed the method and now my phone is totally live but now I want to root my device and have TWRP, so I can have full freedom with this phone. Can you give me any thread for that?

Ans: Nice question. There's a lots of nice threads out there here's a thread currently covering H830 only but you are welcomed to try this on H850 and let me know if this works so that I can update the thread.

Can I lock my bootloader again so I can take OTA updates?

Ans: First of all, always remember, bootloader has nothing to do with OTA. It means that if your phone is flashed with stock rom without any root or TWRP and bootloader is unlocked, you can take OTA uodates without any brick. So there is no connection between OTA and bootloader.

But if you still want to lock bootloader, here's the process. Make sure drivers are installed and minimal adb & fastboot is installed too.

Take battery out, put it back, hold vol- and connect phone to pc with data cable, it will boot into fastboot. Enter command in adb & fastboot cmd windows,

fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot

Your phone will now try to boot into system, if stock rom is installed phone will boot without any issue else you will have to flash stock kdz again.

Where I can download stock KDZ or dll for my LG Phone (other than G5)

Ans: Most LG Phone KDZs can be found at this website.

I'm trying your method as described above but my issue into your explanation I can't locate the megalocks.dll file to put into the lg flash tool. lil help? I'm having issues with H830 being recognized in LGUP to flash back to stock. ok found it and downloaded it and dropped it into the flash tool folder.

I got a little confused on which Flash tool to use and with the megalock part but everything worked just as described. thank you for your help!!! I'm on a Tmo G5 (H830) and had no issues.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] isholay:
I followed all the steps. LGflashtool got stuck on 10 per cent and failed after 63sec. Same thing on LGbridge it got stuck on 10 per cent. And LGUP wouldnt recognise it. It's on com41. The phone is stuck in download mode. No recovery. What can I do please?
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dksoni411:
Is it fixed? If not you can download flash tool from 2nd post.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dksoni411:
Have you followed it as described. You have to do the process 2 times with lg flash tool and after that with lgup (only if you stuck with big 2).

Please read care-fully..

Tell me if it worked or not.

Finally, it has come back to life. I retried it using LGflashtool but this time I used stock Nougat rom for Vofadone UK cos my phone was simlocked to Vodafone UK. I was using MM rom for 3 Networt cos I wanted to install xposed framework which aint compatible with Nougat.

I am on Verizon G5: VS987. Besides getting vs987 firmware, need I find LGUP_VS987.DLL, or just use LGUP_H830.DLL ?
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dksoni411:
Yes, you need kdz and .dll specified for your model.

Im having a problem.

Flashed stock and Im getting the following message on my H850: "Current version is not available for user. Can't find matched cust for NTCODE = [,]"
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dksoni411:
This error usually comes when you flash kdz of different region e.g flashing European rom on an HK H850. It shouldn't harm you phone but will only show that error on boot up.

You can either flash right kdz for you region or keep up with that error.

I also read somewhere that by deleting the cust folder you can get rid of that error, which requires root ( But I'm still not sure about it because I have H830).

So that's not a flashing error but wrong kdz error.

Hi! I managed to follow this thread and get my LG G5 back to life, but now it won't connect to LTE at all. I think this is due to the .dll I used (Revised LGUP_H830.zip), being my phone a F700L.

hello, [MENTION=5594713]dksoni411[/MENTION] first of all thank you for all of this, i am having trouble, i had everything working with installing resurrection remix and twrp but then i tried to flash a different version of twrp because it kept thinking my sd card was corrupted, which it wasn't, then when i did that i somehow ended up with no recovery at all. so now i have fastboot mode and a bootable rom but no recovery.

edit: i was having some problems but they were all due to user error as usual. figured it out eventually. thanks so much for the detailed instructions! now hopefully when i redo it my rom doesn't think my sd card is corrupted. might not be the right place for it, but has anyone else had that happen? does anyone know why?

I seem to be at a blocker for your method. I believe there is no KDZ or TOT file for my RS98821a on nougat. The only files I see for RS988 from your link are here. Do I *have* to use the 11c KDZ or is there a way for me to use the RS98821a files in that list? Maybe [MENTION=2684188]autoprime[/MENTION] could comment?

I tried to flash the COMPLETE zip from this post using autoprimes method. I had twrp installed so I flashed it from within twrp. This resulted in a bootloop with "boot verification fail cause mismatch_sig_len" in red at the top left of the screen. I was able to get into factory reset (vol- and power) and do that, but it still just bootloops, though with the red error gone. I am able to get into download mode, and I'm able to have everything else appear to work in your method up to the point where I need a KDZ, which is at the beginning.

My computer sees my device. I can change the port to 41. I'm just not sure how to proceed.

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I used the KDZ from 11c and it worked. So now I'm on MM. At least my phone is back, however my question about the use of autoprime's zips I'm still unsure about. Thank you for this excellent guide.

Dead Boot LG G5 H820. Is there a way to fix.

I had LG G5 H820 AT&T handset.

Last week I decided to Update my device to Nougat Update manually using LGUP software to H820PR20a_00_1123.kdz file. But the phone never restarted after the update was completed successfully. Now it is only showing qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008 port in Device manager.

It was the worst decision, now is there any way i can repair this issue. I have tried Qualcomm tools with LG G5 H850 ROM kdz file, also tried LG G5 LS992 tot files. But nothing is working out.

[EDIT] I have the common DLL. Where can I get the other DLL for my model?
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dksoni411:
You can get one by ectracting kdz. I'm not sure about other dll because I don't have that phone, also I didn't found any related thread for g6 about this topic. So, if you have first dll then extract other from kdz.

If you can find any thing then let me know so I can make a related thread.

No. One dll from kdz and other from some other source. In case of G5 there are dll available for some variants (maybe all).

Need help. Phone returns status 2

Ive got a lg g5 h830 which apparently didnt like being messed with. Unlocked its bootloader and tried to flash sonething on an apparently flash-locked version. I really did try though, my bad...

Now ive tried both methods posted here. First i got a status 3 result, but when i restarted it went back to download mode. When i tried doing everything again i got a status 2. I tried the second method but it didnt seem to work.

When i tried everything from tve start again, i got a status 2 return this time and while everything was leadong to that status changing tl 3 like the first time, this time flashtool said something like "cant access COM 41" when it had rebooted the phone.

Any ideas? Ill keep posting as soon as i get back home with my pc and keep triying to do this.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dksoni411:
You should try whole process on some other pc with usb 2.0 port.

Also if you get status two and phone won't boot into system try locking bootloader (you can unlock it later) and booting or repeat process. It's worth giving it a try.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] jpkillerage:
Thanks!!! it worked

Seems my asus notebook only had usb 3+ ports, when i tried it on another one it worked. thank you very much.

Also, if someone gets the "not lg g5" message on the modified recowvery, you have to adb kill-server before running the script. thats if you have installed adb before, of course. otherwise i dont konw.

dowgrade to marshmallow :D
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheMadScientist:
Thats your issue. Downgrade to marshmallow is not possible. Thats why it errors. Anti roll back prevents this. Im suprised it did not brick ure your device.... Once on 7.0 thats it never can go back.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dksoni411:
Sorry for being late to reply. I was kinda busy with working stuff.

So you want to to rollback from Nougat to Marshmallow. Yes, it's technically possible (I can't confirm because don't have mine G5 right now).

So if anyone want to say "Anti-Rollback won't let this happen". Then here is more details.

Technically:

build after 10d (which was Marshmallow) had increase in Anti-Rollback (ARB). Previously it was ARB 00, after 10d it incremented to ARB 01. At the moment it is ARB 01. Which means you can rollback to any version which has ARB 01. LG (or T-Mobile) did this to prevent user from installing Rooted Tot file which had ARB 00. But as V20A (on H830) is rootable (only H830), you actually don't need to downgrade to Marshmallow (that rooted Tot still can't be flashed). But, if you want to enjoy that fast Marshmallow firmware (if you think it is more faster and battery-friendly than Nougat) then you can flash Marshmallow firmware which were released with ARB 01. I'm providing link with ARB 01 but still do note that I have not tested this yet so only flash this if you want to do so and if possible let me know about your result.

Download KDZ if you want to flash with LGUP (or LG FlashTool). But if you have TWRP installed on your phone you can download flashable ZIP and flash it with TWRP (if you want root then you will have to flash Supersu or Magisk zip after flashing zip).
