Actually the software was posted but someone kept aggravating him and because of one idiot he decided to cease all contact with LG people in general and pulled the software. That being said the backdoor does exist here's a backup copy of the post before it was deleted however not sure if this is jcase or the idiot though that posted this but I think that is the original post from jcase, the software is no longer there so don't try the links as they 404. The point is that somehow they found a way to get more commands in LAF mode so we just have to figure out how.

EDIT: here's the jcase post: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66496059&postcount=139

Everyone giving up? I'll be getting a V30 soon, so i guess I'll keep checking to see if my unlocked H872 will ever see root.. hahaha doubtful, thanks everyone for all you're doing..
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Barsky:
Might want to wait for the US Unlocked, as the tmo v30 will most likely have the same non-root problem
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] brossovitch:
Yea, probably but I can't finance it with monthly payments.. and I'd like to get a daydream viewer as well.

I pretty much just use my TMO branded G4 for all my fun root stuff since TMO is blocking us.

BTW, not once in anything about root or Bootloader unlocking have I seen anyone mention the OEM unlock switch, I mean it's kinda given for the past few years but it would be awesome if that was our issue.. hahah, not likely.

I'd buy the US Unlocked V30 but it's probably going to go for somewhere around $900 which i can buy a good project car for so that's kinda not an option. If it was more like $700 yea Id wait but 2 V30s for 1k isn't a bad deal from TMO

---------- Post added at 01:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:20 AM ----------

I mean, the friggen TMO Note 8 has root already. I feel like we just got screwed on the, "Back to Basics," moto of the G6. It's missing a lot of little basic options in the OS like notification options that used to be in LGs OS and even a way to hide the navbar, as well as other little things. Its possible LG just left all kinds of stuff out of this device simply to make it a basic and reliable device. I have some good hope for the TMO V30 especially with it's premium pricetag. Even if it doesn't get root, well, it'll suck and I'll still have to live with ads but at least it will be an awesome device.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Barsky:
Ah, G4. The good old days when fastboot had it commands still instact. And the leather is cool :)

Hahah yeah, pretty pricey, but LG flagships have a habit of shedding $100 pretty quickly. Hopefully same with the V30. Let other people get the first ones and figure out the problems ;)
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] brossovitch:
Probably not a bad idea.. but i really really want it! And with the TMO BOGO happening its hard to pass up. I almost didn't get the G6 because i was going to wait for the v30.. hahaha, then they did BOGO so i got 2.

So, I found an app that can read Root.

Cannot write to root, but it's still pretty useful.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kafuiutils

Can copy anything from root, well so far what I've tried has worked.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] christopherrrg:
You can copy from system already as it's readable it's just writing back to system that we need the root for.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] brossovitch:
Yeah that's what I said. I just never used an app like this that would allow navigation and copying from root without SU. So i was kinda excited. Which is cool because now i can copy system apks...
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Hex-US:
There will eventually be a root for this device, however; it's not coming anytime soon.

---------- Post added at 10:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:01 PM ----------

Unless there is a loophole, in the upcoming update to Android Oreo; we will have to find a work around one day.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] christopherrrg:
Oh my mistake. Yeah I found the same thing when I had used the the other version of root explorer (just named explorer) and realized that it could also read into the system. So basically the same discovery, neat right? That's how a lot of theming is done. :)
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] brossovitch:
If only we could use substratum like on Samsung...
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] christopherrrg:
Right? Come oreo we will be able to do just that. Root or no root!
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] jcase:
It was many people, in fact the LG community as a whole.

Our software was repackaged, and SOLD.

People accused us of stealing our own software.

Community members couldn't bother to read where I said it was unsupported.

Members went as far as to call me asking for help on it multiple times after I denied them online. When explained that I didn't have time to go further right now, they cursed me and my family.

It was A LOT of people, not just one. The community as a whole went to far.

Just to be clear, I have already obtained two judgements against people distributing our software or derivative works based on it. It isn't hard.

Unless someone knows what they are doing (like thjubeck), and wants to ask MINOR questions, please leave us alone.

I have abandoned LG and jumped ship to Sony.

[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] christopherrrg:
That is simply disgusting, as an enthusiast in our android community for a while now (just got the G6 in June) I backlogged and read a lot of what had gone down with what you guys had going on. That's incredibly petty and whomever was in charge of that should be ashamed of themselves, even more so for any type of involvement or mention in regards to your personal lives and family.

Unfortunately with the popularity of google and XDA from any type of sentence involving the word 'root' it directs to here. Since then the flood of greedy unknowing users has increased by the thousands, hell half of the accounts on here are people creating an account to post one question and dumping it.

I apologize for the major OT but as someone who watches a lot of what happens to android devices it's a sad day when I watch this website ruin people working hard to provide things for others at no cost and the demand for free stuff is insane. This definitely isn't the first case too. :(
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Yazuken1:
Hey guys. So.. I may have found a potential way to root the LG G6.... Its an idea I mentioned before, but I didn't have everything necessary in order to give it a try... As stated before... There is a firmware for the LGH872 which is from Claro Mobile (A cell phone carrier In Puerto Rico). I wasn't able to find a KDZ of the firmware anywhere before.... but just recently came across one. The firmwares are labled H872PR10x ... (replace "x" with whatever version letter)... What I am wondering is if maybe the Claro firmware doesn't have as much security preventing the phone from being rooted. And I feel since it is for the exact same device.. (H872) It should be able to flash just fine. The language on the firmware may be in spanish by default, but that can easily be changed after flashsing. It would be really cool if rooting is actually this simple.. I only have ONE small problem getting in the way, if anyone knows a work around... root may be very close... what the problem is... is that the firmware is an "A" version... So I need to be able to roll-back seeing as right now I have the H87210_P firmware... if anyone knows a way to bypass anti-rollback in LGUP and allow for downgrading, please let me know. I'm willing to try this with my LG G6. Thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] brossovitch:
Probably not feasible or doable. Good luck trying. One of my G6's is on the newest update (10q) and the other is on 10p. And they can't rollback from what I believe.

But that would be huge for anyone who's never updated their device yet. Personally I'm going to leave one on 10p for a while and upgrade my other to a v30 in the morning. Even knowing there's no way to root the TMO versions of these devices, i guess I'm just going to have to use locked down amd secure phones. Sad times.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] nima0003:
I've rooted a Claro S7 with global files before, so yes, Claro phones don't use too much security and are only normal variants with Claro branding and firmware. So yes it might be possible
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] mattlowry:
i have the H87210o software version. i recently bought this phone and never updated
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] runningnak3d:
Before you guys go flashing Claro firmware, you might want to check that it uses the same RSA key. Dump the XBL from each phone and compare the signature. If they match, you are safe, if they don't, you will have a 9008 brick on your hands.

As to the question about bypassing ARB. Unless you can inject code between the NAND and the CPU -- can't be done.

[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] johndc7:
I have never updated my phone just in case something like this came up.

My software version is H87210e.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Yazuken1:
Is the H7210o Firmware you have the Claro Mobile variant? Or T-Mobile? Cause what I need in order to test what I'm thinking will work, is the Claro Mobile firmware.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] mattlowry:
Tmobile
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Yazuken1:
Aww man. Yeah. Unfortunately thats not the one I need. See the claro mobile firmwares are usually named "H872PR_10x"... "x" being whatever letter version. PR im assuming is Puerto Rico since claro mobile is a carrier in Puerto Rico. So if you or anybody can find "H872PR_10o.KDZ" that would be good. Its not a guarantee that it would be rootable. But its definitely worth a try in my opinion. Id be willing to flash it to my lg g6 using lgup. Even with the risk of bricking...Im that desperate for root.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] FCORivers:
Anyone knows someone in PR with a working phone signal (after the Maria hurricane) that has a claro LG G6?

Lol, PR just like the US is a iphone's Galaxy's place, ppl don't buy this crappy phones, and those who do are not interested in root stuff, everyone I talked or showed what root was about to never heard of it.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Yazuken1:
Hmm. Yeah good point.. I did see a post from one guy on here from a long time ago though... He actually was looking for the opposite of what I'm looking for I think... He had a Claro G6 and was wanting the T-Mobile Firmware... It was either that or he was wondering if the Claro G6 would work with a T-mobile sim card... says he hasn't logged in for a long time :/

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Crosscade:
I have an issue with my MTCB-KLD6 RK3188 800x480 headunit where I can not get any phone to be detected, or do anything other than charge when plugged into a USB port of the headunit.

A USB flash drive has no issue mounting and being accessible on any of the USB ports on the headunit.

Using Easyconnected, the app will not progress past step 1 (connect your mobile). Step 1 times out and tells me to enable USB debugging.

I have tried the following:

- Different roms (DSA and Malaysk 4.4 and 5.1)

- Different MCU versions (KLD6 v2.85, v2.86 and v2.97)

- Different phones with different Android versions (rooted and non-rooted)

- Different USB ports on the headunit (front usb and two rear usb)

- Different micro USB cable

- Different Easyconnected versions (three different ones)

I am at a loss for what to try next.

I am considering attempting to flash an alternative MTC image as I am not entirely sure if I accidentally flashed a KLD6 MCU as part of flashing a custom rom ages ago when I first got the unit. Could this be the issue? Is there anyway of verifying the make outside of the version information in the software?

FYI, the unit looks identical to this image:

https://img.xda-cdn.com/HO6e7mFsPo5pdB5KZz39NyVkCHc=/https%3A%2F%2Flh3.googleusercontent.com%2FpqI4HxuqV5qoWcGXi6yIa8orHxcsbVYcR5RkYagHZVo%3Dw840-h480-no

Any feedback is appreciated.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Crosscade:
EDIT: Turns out the shorter USB cable did not solve the issue. I have not been able to reconnect after the one successful attempt. Interestingly though whilst connected to the headunit, the phone sometimes pops up stating that the phone is unable to transfer data to the connect device and to try reconnecting the USB cable [or something to that effect]. Unpluging and replugging, rebooting both the headunit and the phone, toggling usb debugging, none appears to work. Again tried with other mircoUSB cables that I know work, and no luck.

Any ideas?

After a review of more topics in regards to general USB connection issues, I attempted to use a very short micro USB cable I had from a USB charger.

The shorter USB cable seems to have solved the issue. I am unsure why this is the case. But if someone else has this issue, try to use the smallest cable you can find.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] i2andog:
I recently crack my screen on my OP3t... Save the first couple incidents, I found that ordering the parts and doing the labor myself saved a lot of money, It also was kind of fun (yea I am one of those guys). Anyway, Before doing any research what so ever on the tear down and repair I ordered an OEM original piece of glass considering that both the digitializer and LCD were both working well. My confidence rapidly depleted when I started the research and came to the conclusion that this particular repair was beyond my pay grade. I reached out to OnePlus and astonishingly they only charged around $65 USD for the parts, labor and shipping. Which is very reasonable considering that I couldn't find a display assembly for less the a hundred dollars. While my phone was still being repaired the glass I ordered arrived and I was blown away about the quality of glass. So my question is... would I be able to use the replacement glass in place of a tempered glass screen protector? With the glass they send both UV Loca Glue and Mini tools and an UV flashlight to activate the glue that from what I've read dries completely clear.. My fears about this are would it decrease the touch sensitivity of my phone and if no how would I apply the glue. IE. All over the glass or around the corners.... I obviously have no idea but I do know that if this is possible I would be ecstatic! thank you for your time and look forward to hearing the response.. Randy
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] mekanismen:
I would not recommend using the LOCA for this at least. It'll be a true pain in the ass to remove if/when that time comes. If anything I'd try using an OCA film, if you can get your hands on one that fits.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] maddler:
Well, that could actually make some sense :)

As for the glue, that could actually be the trickiest bit.

Most of the bi adhesive strips would actually be too thick. And permanent glue could be a pain in the arse to remove.

Not sure the LOCA glue would actually work, as you'd need to only glue the two white/black bands on above and below the screen area so the UV wouldn't really get there.

Maybe a few drops of Loctite? That could be enough to keep it in place.

If you fancy giving it a try let us know how it works, finding a proper tempered glass screen protector proved to be quite "challenging" :)

Mission OEM GLASS ABORT

Quick update... The day after I made this thread my 3 year old daughter was running to me estaticly because she took a sh!t in the potty... (fyi: Potty Training sucks) Anyways during her excitement she accidentally knocked my op3 off of the table next to the chair I lounge in most of the time. Its not a high table by an means maybe 3ft (1 meter).. Ruffly.. Anyways it landed and on very soft carpet.. (You know the spots on the carpet that are still brand new because they never experience being walked all over.. Like the high traffic areas of the same piece of carpet... Its Like if you're going to drop your phone on the carpet... That's the spot you aim for..{ADHD BAD}).. to be honest I didn't even know it fell until I went to look for it like a hour later... When I picked it up... I was the one sh!tt!ng my pants..
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] genuine55:

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] acmerw:
don't use any glue on top of cracked glass. remove screen from plastic frame, separate with cutting wire, clean old oca film, apply loca and new glass, and leave under uv lamp for 30-90mins. don't be lame with such waste of time and glass on top of cracked.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Anova's Origin:
That damage seems excessive for falling a few feet onto carpet... Perhaps it's time to invest in a case
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] i2andog:
Yes... It is the reason for my indecisiveness on how to proceed forward... Because I honestly just received the phone from the repair center from the first broken screen... and for it to fall... on Charmin soft carpet and break like that is beyond my understanding... I absolutely love this phone because in my opinion it is the closet phone that would be comparable to the nexus line... but if this bullsh!t keeps up I might as well just buy a friggin' Pixel.. For perspective I purchased the 3t to replace my LG G5 which is not broken... but it is very limited on the software side.. not my cup of tea... but the thing is a tank. I have dropped that phone at times where I just knew before I picked it up that the screen was shattered... but that was never the case. The thing is still 100 percent OEM... I am starting to get hesitant about throwing anymore money at it.. I guess ill wait for a response from OnePlus support to see which pill I should take.. red or blue?? f*ck it.. ill take both

That you for the tutorial my friend but I am assuming you misunderstood the content of this post. I broke my phone, purchased glass, sent phone to OnePlus Service, Glass arrived while phone was being repaired, received phone back, was curious if I could use glass as screen protection, broke phone again, $h!t my pants..
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] i2andog:
You're godd@mn right it is... That honestly crossed my mind. They f'ed up somehow.. skipped a step... who knows.. Or, maybe, just maybe the glass they used was defective..

believe it or not.... it is much cheaper then buying the parts and doing the work myself compared to sending it to the repair center without worries of more damage.

I just realized that the way I wrote this is confusing af

It is cheaper to send my phone to the repair shop then to purchase the part off the internet... that is if you purchase the display assembly.. the glass runs around $5 usd the assemblies are well over $100 usd. If you know of anywhere I can get the assembly cheaper please let me know

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] mikeprius:
Noob question, but what is the difference between side loading the OTA and downloading the factory image ? Generally whenever a new version is online for the factory images, I have downloaded then flashed via fastboot. If I have stock recovery (I don't right now), but if I did, I put the OTA zip in the internal storage then use the stock recovery to side load OTA ?

Are these basically doing the same thing ?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
The factory image is a full image, where as OTA is the update to the current version your phone already has and OTAs are normally smaller in size. I personally would use factory image if I want to flash the whole thing because of some issues that the phone may have. If you don't have any issues, then you could wait for an OTA update or side load it, as you mentioned in your example.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] mikeprius:
If I were to sideload with TWRP will my data be wiped and do I need to reflash TWRP ? I've never done a ADB sideload before I've always just reloaded the factory image so I'm not familiar with the process

I got my Nexus 5X to properly sideload, but I keep having problems with the Pixel. Keeps saying error no devices/emulator found. Fastboot and adb reboot bootloader commands work on my phone.

Using twrp rc1 adb sideload feature. It just occurred to me it may be a twrp issue.
