Does supersu work with f2fs?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] null0seven:
Format data in recovery WIPE ALL in youre phone.

Recovery > Wipe > Format Data > Yes.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] eraser3000:
yes but...It will wipe only internal not system partition right?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] null0seven:
Mate, format data erase ALL.

You only have a empty TWRP directory in internal memory. It's healty for the phone, but if you like to keep data...
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] eraser3000:
Lol, now i only became more confused. If i format data all my internal storage will be wiped, right? But my other partitions will be kept? such as system? after formatting and clicking on reboot system it will boot or stay in boot loop?

There's no major difference you will see in changing the filesystem to F2FS. I am using F2FS on Data Partition on Sultan CM & there is no major difference in real life.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] eraser3000:
I want to give it a try, if I don't see any noticeable difference I could come back to ext4
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] uudruid74:
There are a few partitions on your phone, just like a hard drive. Think of your /system partition as your C: drive. Your /data partition would then be D: Your apps, the data for the apps, your dalvik/art cache, and your "Internal storage" are all on /data.

Changing your file system is literally formatting the drive, which initializes a new file system. For Windows, it's NTFS, for Linux it's normally ext4. You are basically going to format D:

Got it? Your Rom is on C:, data and apps on D:
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] null0seven:
About F2FS some users sad that it's better on gaming. And benchmarks (this it's useless).

Other than that recovery open slowly comparing with ext4.

Le

You will see that youre internal memory it's smaller on F2FS.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] niki.b:
Does someone has them please PM me I will give you credit$ because I'm in dead end with unusable anymore ls997 device.

I have lost my backup (pre-santa pre-rooting pre-custom roms) it was on my sd card which I formated after a while not thinking.

later I did other mistakes: on my dirty santa rooted ls997 I flashed LS997-deODEXd-signed. All fine but than because in software info it said US996 (yes because of the bootloader) I went for stock us996 10f .kdz using uppercut which didn't stop me because it recognised the device as us996. us996 .kdz rom removed root and twrp, all was fine except I got no service (all type of networks). phone recognises the sim card, but that's that no more (even manual setting the apns and manual choosing the network(can't be retrieved) even 112 and 911 won't work. Than I went re-rooted and re-flashed LS997-deODEXd-signed again, but my service was gone there as well (previously okey). tried other ls997 custom roms, in all of them service was gone. I guess I can fix that with twrp recovory of original stock backup files (mine I deleted by acc). I will give credits to anyone helps me.

You probably need to flash the radio from Sprint using dd

Go here for modem https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3548454

dd if=/storage/emulated/0/modem.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modem

When the modem file is on root of internal storage
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] niki.b:
I will try it today and report back thank you fellow.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] niki.b:
I flashed (wrong) modem.img via twrp->install successfully. Big mistake as I ended up stuck in (attached photo) green screen after lg logo. Twrp still works, also adb still works when I hit volume down + plug the type-c cable in. Tried fastboot erase system than fastboot flash recovory twrp.img than from twrp flashed 1)twrp flashed other custom rom-no success(green screen still there after flash->reboot->lg logo) 2)flashed twrp backup I created the other day (only boot & system were ticked when I created the backup, they are from working status with custom LS997-deODEXd-signed as it is the same rom on my 2nd working v20) - 2) also went not successfull

3) opened uppercut on my pc but it recognises my device's port but version is uknown therefor can't use uppercut(it won't start because unkown version, pre-issues it worked, also on my 2nd v20 works but I suppose rom must be ok and booted in order uppercut to starts and gets the version of device).

4) I'm stuck. Can I somehow use my 2nd v20 (rooted, twrp ok, custom romed LS997-deODEXd-signed (old one from december),all software and hardware works perfect(including radio I do have signal bars data etc.) to fix my green screen on 1st v20 so if I fix it I can proceed with your instructions for the sprint radio via dd :confused:
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] nexus6r3plicant01:
If you did flash radio then i would try to flash the radio but i have never seen the green screen
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Lumince:
If your device has a kdz, you can extract everything from it and flash accordingly. Or I think there is a fix for the unknown thing. My device does it as well.. There are dll files you need to get it to work.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] niki.b:
I have kdz but can't fix the unknown thing which doesn't let me in the uppercut/lgup window in the 1st place nah
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Lumince:
https://xdaforums.com/v20/how-to/v20-kdz-restore-failing-9-completing-fix-t3546817

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] nexus6r3plicant01:
Where did you get kdz for Sprint it never

was leaked
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Team DevDigitel:
He dosnt have a sprint kdz. Im asusimg hes talking the us996 kdz. Why you would have hit the sprint ls997 with the us996 kdz is unknown to me.. The sprint kdz is not avalible and the version that was leaked isnt in circulation and is encrypted.

---------- Post added at 01:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:59 PM ----------

Im assuming you'll need more then just system and boot.img

The kdz i assume replaced your custom aboot. And the radio and modems all got swapped with us996 the unlocked version i hope and not tmobile variant.

I have full backups but parts contain things like ur esn imei and cant be shared.. Need more info on what is what. The green sceen is a big issue. Thats aboot crash
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] bicoro:
Maybe you lost the phone's EFS/IMEI file folder, Did you check that?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] niki.b:
yes I used us996 .kdz. Im willing to do it again in order to undo the green screen and unbrick my phone.

your words seems legit yes I assume the us996 replacaed radio and modems that's why I got no service. BUT all else was working, no green screen. AFter that I flashed h918 modem.img using twrp->install->choosed modem.img->swipe to install. Only than I got stuck with the green screen and no re-flash helped. Tried twrp restore with 5gb backup fom us995 nrd90m stockimage (system,boot,chace) with no result - again green screen after lg logo.

If I can get uppercut/lgup reading my phone version again (with dd command and changing dll) I will swap back us996 kdz which was fine (than re-root re-flash twrp and custom rom - all back to square 1). us996 kdz is fine it did not make the green screen, booting h918 modem.img after that through twrp did it. us996 kdz only swapped my radio and modem therefor got no service but that's it no more harm.

I was in the US only temporary, now Im in europe using my tmobile(usa) on roaming(not for long I don't need my us number anymore) and european sim card on my 2nd v20. Therefor I don't really care anymore for my ESNs

How can I check that and could it be the reason for the situation
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] bicoro:
Well, i think you have to check on Settings> About phone> Status and here it shows the phone's imei number, if you only see "000000000000000" then your phone does not have the EFS folder, then you have to fix that....
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] niki.b:
I checked, it's fine, imei is ok - the actual and full one

Update: I'm considering buying another clean ls997 sprint v20 since mine are both rooted etc. My Q is how can I extract the .kdz from the new clean sprint v20 unit ? (As I noted even with full twrp backup images the green screen is not fixed it's deeper issue

maybe

.kdz will fix it hopefully). I don't mind sharing the sprint .kdz afterwards since I will not use the phone in the US anymore anyways.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] nexus6r3plicant01:
The kdz has to be leaked from Sprint....The only one that got leaked wss encrypted and we can't use it...the only way to get it flashed to stock is at a Sprint store unfortunately...it sucks
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Tilde88:
Lol... As you learned, cross flashing radios is a great way to brick. Also, never flash a radio through DD unless you are 10000% sure you know what every part of what you are doing does, and how it works.

Here is your problem. Your baseband (radio) partition is supposed to be a certain size... However, upon flashing a wrong image, with a low-level tool (DD), the partition is now corrupt and/or mis-sized. That means that another partition is overlapped by radio, or a part of radio is overlapped by another partition.

If you somehow get a KDZ to flash, it may or may not fix it.

The only way to fix this, would be with a very low-level tool, to manually repartition everything in pristine condition. If KDZ does that, then great. If not, then there is really not much you can do.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] niki.b:
I'm trying my best to get the KDZ to flash, but it won't let me. Download mode on thehpne successfull, from there on - not.

Please recommend me some workshop where they can fix this green screen and get me going. It's sprint bad esn lg v20 should I contact Sprint and tell them I rooted and soft bricked and can they get me back to stock and charge me for this service that's fine ofcourse ? I can ship it asap since now it's just 350$ piece of shiny plastic in a box.

Did you 'update PRL' and 'update profile' from Settings > System Updates?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] elijah420:
i get the impression that you didnt actually read the OP's post.

he has a kernel panic, and is unable to get his phone to boot android. the green screen in the very first post indicates as such.

in a small nutshell, OP flashed a file to a place that it should not have been flashed to. most likely, OP has given him/her self a really expensive doorstop.

unfortunate, but a lesson can be learned here. expensive and avoidable, unfortunately.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] bgibson72:
Apparently. You could have saved all of us time by giving your obviously superior answer in the first place.

Make assinine remarks, expect assinine replies.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] elijah420:
OP -

i apologize ahead of time, this is going to come across as me being an $%#hole -

you did not read the instructions fully. or if you did, you didnt retain what was put up (i realize it is a ton to digest, but this phone has a rather intricate rooting process, and as such, extra attention should be paid to the process.) as well, i am not sure exactly where, but it is mentioned, there is NO .kdz file for this variant of the v20 (ls997) available, no matter what version your phone thinks it is. it is an LS997,whether it identifies as one or not.

your original pre-santa backup is useless. it would NOT help you were you to have it anyway. it is encrypted, and therefore unusable. in the process of rooting your phone, you are forced to decrypt the devices contents, and they have to stay that way due to the method of root. had you attempted to install the backup, you would have ended up at this point (a bricked device) via another set of undesired results, due to not retaining the information put up in the rooting thread (this was spelled out fairly well in the rooting thread - deleting your backup, not bothering to restore it, etc) again, it really isnt my desired outcome to be an asshole - just trying to stress that the bar for entry is rather high, and if you dont have a good understanding (or just plain old good luck) of the process, the chance of bricking is higher than desirable.

as far a taking advice from someone at face value next time, please spend a few minutes googling the procedure/the commands/etc.

personally- when i attempt something such as this, i double check my command line input before i hit the enter key, if i cannot outright just cut/paste the command (once it is known to not contain grammatical errors, switch errors, etc).

one last bit of crud from me - Sprint cannot/will not fix this mistake. I think DevDigitel can confirm as he is a Sprint employee, but Sprint does not have the needed files to fix this mistake (my thinking for this is most likely if they were available, he would have either made them available to a trusted group of someones, or he would have flat out alluded to the fact that it can be fixed even if he did not mention the exact method of doing it.

tl;dr

Rooting our variant of the v20 (LS997 version) is a more complicated route than click-click-click reboot; viola root!

---------- Post added at 04:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:11 AM ----------

not superior. i just bothered to read into what the OP's problem actually was.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] niki.b:
I did one major mistake flashing radio.img with no man or no instruction making me to do it. totally my stupid fault. Now I know what is the feeling to brick a phone. If I can get us996 .kdz flashed successfully I can than re-root, re-isntall twrp and from there install custom working ls997 rom (which is the case fully working on my 1st of 3 devices) but the process won't let me because recognises the phone as ls997 and wants ls99 .kdz to proceed. I know there is no ls997 .kdz as it must come from Sprint {and other stuff I don't understand as low-leveled noob}

That said, I do need someone to take care and try fix the phone as is soft bricked or maybe even final hard bricked. As a payed service. I understand the chances for success are low even if you suggest someone to do the job and try do the miracle. Because I need miracle.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] vlad48:
Miracle is not what you need - actually you needed here a JTAG box - try to search someone in your area and visit him with your 2 sprint devices.

Also if you have a right map of partitions you have messed up and with some reading here you might try to fix it, but one big fat warning: be aware that you are walking on a very thin ice.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] einsteino:
Are you saying after you did dirty santa on your LS997, you were able to flash US996 kdz again and it didnt brick?

By the way if your bricked LS997 is recognized by LGUP as LS997, you should be able to flash US996 kdz by selecting Partition DL (and ticking all) not UPGRADE

How do you do a full backup for LS997 before rooting so it can be restored if needed.

All you needed to do is get the patched lg up version, flash a vs995 kdz, then re root and switch back to ls997.

Hey

I have a small grip against Comm Manager. I use it a lot but I hate the fact that when you hit exit it actually stays open in the back ground (if you go into your memory settings and view active programs it will say Comm Mgr there)

Anyway to make it force Exit Comm Manager when I hit exit ?
[Touch CDMA General] Bondie:
Hi ludester..

Dunno if ya figured it out yet, but it is possible for u to ask the phone to shut down the progs(comm man. by just pressing, not holding the "X"

>settings>buttons>..go figure :)

kind regards
[Touch CDMA General] imdarkside:
hold x

if you push on the x and hold it for a few seconds it turns off the running program. a short push on the x just minimizes it. you can also go to running programs and shut it off. hope that helped.
[Touch CDMA General] RodKahx:
I haven't seen any tweak that will force quit an app or running process by just tapping X if it designed to keep running.

Wk task mgr works very well to force quit. Also shows the comm manager still open in an XP style task bar. Similarly you will see active sync running after a soft reset. (not just running in the background as you say)

Or just map a link to taskmgr.exe in the windows directory. Quick access to force quit any app or process.

I agree about your gripe concerning the comm manager kept running.
[Touch CDMA General] WillyStylee:
If you go to Start->Settings->System Tab->Task Manager->Button Tab, you can change the shut down command from tap and hold to just tap.
