Bummer.

I was hoping to come back to XDA to find that advances were made to allow Sprint users to restore and downgrade, root ZV7 and not have a static boot screen, etc. Alas, our devs are overworked and underpaid :D. SSDD.

What's with the DoD level of security on these files???
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] pbedard:
Theres no kdz for our device
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] rootlinux:
I understand that but this method looks like it can build from pulled stock system.

I will have to go read it again but it seems like a blend of both Technics might get closer to solving the kdz issue.

If you gain root, the kernel can be changed to get rid of the static. Classic rom kernel has no static as a few others do the same.

Ah. I am trying find the exact post. I copied post number but the link is just going to the thread. There is a post there about building from pulled system images.

---------- Post added at 02:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:33 PM ----------

search XDA for uppercut, you will likely get a virus warning when running it but it seems safe enough.

or make a folder called common in C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model.

you will need a model specific dll file in there. if it works i have attached mine otherwise you can extract the .KDZ with WindowsLGFirmwareExtract-1.2.5.0-Release-1 and it will provide a LGUPc.dll, rename to LGUP_Common.dll and place in C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model\common\

---------- Post added at 02:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:34 PM ----------

I haven't tried that method as I am already unlocked.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] me2151:
LS997 CANNOT USE UPPERCUT. We have no kdz. it NEEDS a kdz.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] rootlinux:
Ah, I think I was misreading that post. I was reading as the process could extract the kdz from the device. My mistake.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] me2151:
You misread. Probably what you were reading was where it could decompile the kdz to a dz and dll(bad choice of words with extract)

[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] emdroidle:
The first issue with creating KDZ files is you need to figure out all the unknown bits. I managed to attribute meanings to most of the data in KDZ files, but not all. Depending upon the effect those extra fields have on LGUP, leaving them blank could cause an update operation to abort early or corrupt data.

At present I know of 3 places which could easily include a signature or other form of verification.

First, there tends to be a lot of space between the KDZ header and the Windows DLL. A year ago (G4/V10) that space was always zero and thus obviously didn't have anything. As of now (G5/V20) there is a fair bit of non-zero data and 80KB is plenty for a signature.

There is some amount of verification for the Windows DLL and MacOS dynlib contained in the KDZ file. Based on the problems lglaf has had, at a minimum those libraries have some effect on the download mode protocol, but their behavior seems to suggest they also verify the DZ content. The procedure to root the V10 included a DLL, and I suspect that DLL had been modified to not enforce verification of the DZ content.

The DZ area contains a bunch of chunks. An interesting part is the first chunk doesn't contain data to be loaded onto the flash of the phone. That data might well be a signature or other form of verification.

Right now I think the best bet for getting into LG devices which have got current firmware and no olde KDZ file available are the attempts to get into download mode. Reads like they're starting to make some progress, but I'd worried LG may well have changed the keys for the G5/V20. Hmm, on more reading there is a mention of a "second key" which might be for the G5/V20...
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Astr4y4L:
So has anyone managed to create a flash-able KDZ yet?

Or even a ToT file?

I ask because we are working on exactly that over here for several Lower-end lg devices

the k4, the k3, the Zone3(i personally have made leaps and bounds with this device) and the Lg rebel.

https://xdaforums.com/general/general/lgvs425pp-optimus-zone-3-stock-t3515462/page77

the problem is that we've found a method to flash individual partitions to our devices and even managed to create a quick-flash-root for the zone3 Using LguP But I want to combine parts of other roms into what I'm working on and then flash the whole file wrapped up in .kdz format or ToT can work also.

But can't get lgup to flash the .kdz's we have created...

Real stupid Head-ache. Kinda Hate Lg for allowing Vendors to Lock things down so badly in our firmware.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] rootlinux:
Is it possible that the us996 kdz would work on the ls997? I only ask because us996 ROMs will flash and work on ls997. If that kdz works we could just flash an ls997 rom back possibly.

Any ideas?

Hello friends. After a while of experiencing the LG V20 a lot of fun and I started working on the line and find out. However, some US versions often weak waves affect call quality as well as 3G 4G is very good price. It's 1tr better than the Korean version. So I decided to implement this project. During the deployment I was completely brick 2 LG V20 can not save, With high determination I have built the file TOT FULL convert all the US to welding.And had the desired results. All worries about the LG V20 are no longer available. Full wave, 4G strong. All functions used as original LG V20 welding without a minor error (I have compared with a machine original 2 solders of the same quality).
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] rootlinux:
Looks like they built a TOT to convert the LS997 to an F800s. Useless for LS997 owners that need an LS997 TOT.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Aballamis:
I know it's been a long time since the V20 was relevant and thus the same on this thread, but I'm trying to re-compile .dz and .kdz files from the extracted parts using LG_Firmware_Extract_v1.2.6.1 and kdztools with python to root low and mid grade LG devices that do not have a working fastboot mode but do have a download mode. I've managed to get the boot.img (I'm using LG K51 and it has 2, I believe bc it's a treble device), but they are identical) and patch with Magisk 23.0. But I've been looking around and only found a few threads partaining to re-packing .dz and then .kdz files and they're dev heavy - meaning the instructions are breif and assume you have extensive coding/programming knowledge.

Any help greatly appreciated as this would lead to a very relevant root exploit for modern low and mid grade LG devices!

[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 77andyb:
Hi, bought my daughter an X Play, October 2015. A few months ago we realised that whenever anyone tries to call the phone, they just get the 'busy' tone. Daughter also says notifications don't come through, and options have disappeared from the pull-down menu.

The phone makes outgoing calls with no problem, no problem browsing online, no problem with using Snapchat, Whatsapp etc, but she has to check for messages manually as she isn't receiving any notifications. As far as I can see, no option has been accidentally selected to turn notifications off.

Is this a known problem? If anyone can list the things I can try to make the phone fully functional again, it would be highly appreciated. We have not made any modifications to the phone at all, it's just the standard phone, not flashed any custom ROMS etc (I'm really not technically minded enough to do it if I wanted to!). Hope someone can help.

Many thanks, Andy.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kos25k:
I have similar problem,but people say that they call me normally.my phone doesnt ring or screen opens,or missed call appears anywhere.very weird.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minimale_ldz:
Reboot > reset network settings > factory reset > reflash radio firmware > reflash whole firmware. If this doesn't help, there's 99% chance you've got hardware issue.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kos25k:
thanks.where can I find radio firmware?
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minimale_ldz:
You need to download the whole firmware. The NON-HLOS.bin file is for your radio. You also need to erase modem stats after flashing it. The fastboot commands are as follows:

fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kos25k:
thanks.I will wait till new firmware with January OTA included,is ready for download,or someone creates a flashable rom and then I will do this.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 77andyb:
Many thanks for responding. I've never flashed or reflashed anything, so I think this is something beyond my capability. I have some techie friends who I'm sure can help with this though. If it needs anything doing to it beyond changing some settings, clearing the cache, or factory reset, I don't have a clue! But at least now I have some info I can show a friend when I ask them to see if they can sort it for me, in return for booze. It seems to be the currency of my techie mates.

Thanks again for the info.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minimale_ldz:
You can clear modemstats without firmware, it helps sometimes. Just execute

fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2

And roms are very unlikely to contain radio files. They usually have system and kernel only.

---------- Post added at 18:54 ---------- Previous post was at 18:45 ----------

No prob. What you can also try yourself is dialing

*#*#4636#*#*

This will open Testing menu. In Phone information section you can set preferred network type and check the following settings:

GSM only

WCDMA only

LTE only

(2G, 3G, 4G respectively) and see if your problem persists on all types of network. It could be that your phone will work normally on 2G but not on 3G for some reason, so it's still usable. If you change these settings they will persist until reboot.

BTW: is your Home button working?
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kos25k:
if we clear modemstats is safe?I mean we do this with commands and then just reboot?
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minimale_ldz:
should be ok. some say it's better to remove sim card when you do it, but I never've seen explanation why exactly.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kos25k:
ok thanks i'll try.can u also remind me the process to make these commands?I have forgotten the process!
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minimale_ldz:
The process is the same as when you flash firmware in fastboot, so you need pc with motorola drivers and fastboot software, you then boot your phone in fastboot mode (bootloader) and enter two commands:

fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kos25k:
thanks dude.I think I press and hold vol down while power up..but if I wait to flash the new upcoming rom...shouldnt be the same as I would flash the modem?I confused a little sorry,because you said roms doesnt contain radios...just system and kernel files.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minimale_ldz:
Yes, just turn off the phone and then powe and volume down and you're in fastboot mode.

and for the second thing - firmware is everything - system, kernel, modem, recovery, bootloader and all the other stuff and that's what you flash in fastboot. Rom is just system+kernel we flash in TWRP.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kpamkar:
I had this issue. Reflash the rom or install a custom rom. This isn't a hardware bug, simply another unexplained weird android bug

[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 77andyb:
Hi, no, the Home button isn't working. I'll run through the tests you've suggested but I think I need to put a SIM card in, as my daughter removed it to put into her new iPhone :rolleyes: Not my decision, all down to mother... think I have a spare PAYG SIM around the house I can use though. Thanks for the suggestions.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minimale_ldz:
Don't bother the tests. If Home button is not working then your phone went into setup mode, it's a software bug and you can fix it yourself.

1. get Activity Launcher from Play Store

2. find Setup Wizard on the list of All Activities

3. launch com.google.android.setupwizard.SetupExit activity

Your phone should be back to normal.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 77andyb:
I think it is!!! home button works, notifications showing, pull down toolbar shows all options, this really seems to have sorted it! I need to test with a SIM inserted, but whatever the hell you told me to do, seems to have worked....thanks so much! We now have a very useful spare Smartphone. I'll comment again once I've done a full test with SIM inserted etc, let you know if it really is all good. Cheers for now! Andy.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kos25k:
hello again.I reflashed firmware with pc commands.it seems that I have the issue again.my phone doesnt ring at all!which commands can I execute without reflashing again the whole firmware??thanks.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pijes:
I always go back with stock rom using rsdlite whenever reflashing rom didn't work and so far everything went back to normal again.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kos25k:
first time I hear about this rsd...is better from flashing with commands?today I reflashed radio and cleared modems..the weird is that the caller hears the tone that means my phone rings and on my phone just nothing!even a missed call notif.!like I never had a missed call!

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Dudash:
They didn't stop supporting the device. If the last update we got (QB2) was indeed the last one, why include a bootloader fix for Qualcomm Galaxy S5's in the March Security Patch? Samsung is still updating International S5's so I'm sure we'll keep getting them.

We won't get Nougat. That's a guarantee. But security patches still go out to devices that are EoL for OS updates.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] sean19661:
Yup that's about all you would get security updates this is why I moved on from s5 and Verizon with all the bloat ware they put on our phone we pay for and locking down the boot loader now I have the s7 rooted with xposed. Good luck!!

Hi,

Not sure if this is the right place (but only place I can post) I've been trying to root my phone in order to install TWRP on my Pixel XL, in order to do so I need to unlock my bootloader.

Now this won't work as in ADB it shows my device as unauthorised, and I've tried everything! Revoking permissions USB debugging, rebooting, the other solution involces deleteing the adb key in .android, but my only .android folder is under c:\\users\MyName\.android and has no adbkey here, only 3 folders -> avd, cache and studio, all of these being empty!

I'm at a real loss to authorise my device so I can continue to root my device.

Any help would be appreciated.
