[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
You can't judge battery drain from 100-90% once it goes below 88% that is when you get true readings. If you unplug your phone at the high 90's the charging algorithm could have had it at 92% and over those hours it just equalized itself.

I.E. I had my phone at 99% charge on the charger for an hour or two while using. The phone will still show 99% but the battery isn't getting a trickle to stay at 99% it will not get power and drop to roughly 91-93% depending on kernel then charge back up to help battery longevity but the system will still show 99% to not make the average user freak out over their battery level dropping while charged. There was a in depth post about this years ago on this site. Too lazy to search and post, but it is a simple search.

Edit: here you go, found it. It's a great read.

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Chrisy8s:
It is a good read but not really what I am talking about. I never leave my phone on my charger at night. I charge to 100% before I go to sleep and sometimes I use for hour or two before bed. So the drain I am experiencing can't really be related to a false reading due to changing currents after a long time on the charger. Sometimes it's down to 70-80% by time I go to sleep and I am still losing that amount in drain. Dozing doesn't appear in my charts at all at night so it appears the phone is never truly dozing... But hey, I'm not a genius about all this, I just know it's not dozing and my cycles in gsam suck for an 835 processor phone even taking into account the smaller battery.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Chrisy8s:
My buddy just made a good point... If I am sleeping with the battery mod connected, even if it's not "charging" maybe the connection makes the phone"think" it's charging and not doze? I'll have to test that tonight.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
That makes sense and I was just going off the image showing 100-92 drain. I wouldn't have a mod on if you're not using it, it can cause drain.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Molotov22:
Hello

I searched the forums for similar problems but unfortunately couldn't find an answer to my specific questions so hopefully i can get some help here

Like the title says i have a problem with my phone (g900v)

it just keeps bootlooping and worst of all i cant even access the recovery menu

every time i tried that it says "recovery booting..." in blue letters but few seconds later the phone restarts again and again with the same results

its bootlooping at the samsung logo not verizon logo

One important thing to consider is that i dont know which android version the phone had before this problem since i got the phone from a co-worker and she doesn't know that info

This is What i tried so far:

I tried flashing the stock firmwares

G900VVRU1ANE9 android 4.4.2 and G900VVRU1ANK2 android 4.4.4

No luck odin gave me an error both times something about *FAIL! (Auth)

So then i jumped to this one

G900VVRU2DPF4 android 6.0.1

And everything went good according to odin but unfortunately the phone is still bootloping and no recovery menu either

So what about flashing a stock PF4 kernel to make sure it matches the firmware?

Do you think this could help?

Please let me know what you think any help would be appreciated

By the way if you think its worth a shot

do you know where can i download the kernel?

Im kind of looking myself but no luck so far

Thank you
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbsc:
Any factory firmware already contains a kernel, no need to flash it separately.

Try to flash the latest service firmware. If it does not help, you have a hardware problem.

Here it is: https://mega.nz/#!j5cH3ZjA!lbEvEg1iZlrjWYfbVKyc8LA6AaQOc9zKo8gn7e6ofJ0

Or download it with Samfirm from Samsung.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Molotov22:
Ok sorry didn't know that but let me try your firmware and let you know what happens

Thank you for the quick reply
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbsc:
N.B. The first boot takes 10 min. or even more (but not more than 20 :) )

So be patient.

Good luck.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Molotov22:
Unfortunately didn't work

same thing happened

it still looping at the samsung logo

I also tried the verizon Software Upgrade Assistant

i used the option to repair

It recognizes the phone in download mode and goes with the repairing process just fine

but at the end guess what? Yes still boot loping

So thats it then?

Is the phone beyond repair?

What about a bootloader flash is that even posible?

Flashing only the kernel

there is an option in odin to repartition

What about a new pit file?

Sorry im kind of newbie to this just throwing some ideas before i start salvaging the phone
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbsc:
Well, to clarify the things:

You've flashed that firmware successfully, waited for 20 min and there was no red verizon logo, right?

Asking because everybody understands "bootloop" in a different way.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Molotov22:
Well like i said before according to odin yes everything flashed correctly

But no i didn't wait that long for the verizon logo to appear because the phone keeps restarting after the samsung logo usually after 18-20 seconds

From what I understand is that when you flash a new rom or do a factory reset the phone takes a long time to fully boot for the first time

but in this case the phone keeps restarting (boot loop)

The only difference that i see is that after flashing the firmware the phone is always trying to boot into recovery mode without success
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbsc:
I'm sorry, but I think it's a hardware problem caused by a defective EMMC (memory) chip in your phone.

It cannot be repaired by "flashing a bootloader" or something.

That firmware you've flashed already contains everything you asked about: bootloaders, modems, kernel, system, etc. It contains a proper pit-file too.

The difference you talk about caused by an attempt to reformat memory and execute so called "cache commands" before reboot which definitely was unsuccessful.

So, there's nothing more to do with Odin, sorry.

The EMMC chip can be replaced (in theory), but this operation requires a qualified person and complicated equipment. I'm afraid this procedure may be too expensive.

That's why, in my opinion, your choice is to swap the main logic board (motherboard) of the phone (if your phone still is in a good physical state and has a good display, certainly). It will cost you $25-35 if you do it yourself.

You'll need, say, this and this (I'd buy 2 or 3).

You'll also need to solve the problem how to disassemble the phone (remove the screen) because it's the most complex and dangerous part of work.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Molotov22:
Yes i think youre right

i have been reading some other posts and info related to my problem and apparently it is going to be the emmc chip

I own another s5 with a cracked screen so im going to use this one for parts

Hey thank you very much for taking the time to help me
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbsc:
And definitely use it for training in LCD removing.

You're welcome.

This can relock G6 bootloader like for warranty purpose?

Which functions are available/unavailable for G6
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] mauronofrio:
The only functions that are not available are flash stock recovery and flash factory image. The others are all available. Locking the bootloader you can brick your phone, the tool will send just a fastboot command. I've tested the bootloader unlocking procedure for lg g6 and twrp flash. There are a lot of others function that i've not tested but they should work (Apk Installer, reboot commands, zip flasher, ....)
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] outlawman007:
Hello, sorry i'm a noob at G6 (just got it last week) i came from an easy to unlock/flash Nexus 5X, i have some questions, do i still need the LG Develpoer site to unlock bootloader? or is this done internally in your program?
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] mauronofrio:
You always need the LG Developer site. This tool is done to simplify processes not to bypass them. With this tool you will never use the terminal anymore.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] outlawman007:
oh, thank you ;) will try it out when i decide to unlock and flash some custom roms ;D still quite happy with the stock rom it came with :D...OR maybee when there is a working option for locking the bootloader, but i guess we will have to wait for that for some time :P...
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] mauronofrio:
The command is there but you can brick your phone. I think you need of a QFIL stock rom to relock bootloader. But i think Lg has a database with all device unlocked...
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] JoaoVr:

[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] tron4200:

[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] galerio:
Just tried to unlock my g6. It works. Then I tried to flash recovery, but, maybe I'd have had to reboot phone prior to flash recovery, infact after reboot the recovery installed was the stock one. So I flashed it via fastboot command manually...

Anyway, simple and working. Gread job!
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] mauronofrio:
Thanks for feedback, can you please tell me what recovery you have installed through fastboot?? Maybe the recovery in the tool ai wrong or have problems.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] galerio:
Have tried the H870 one, TWRP 3.1.1, the one that the software automatically download from server. The final message saied it was installed correctly, but after reboot, normal recovery was presented (the one that reset phone to factory reset, and infact it has resetted the phone)

---------- Post added at 01:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:15 PM ----------

Maybe the problem was not your software... Now that I am in twrp I have transferred a rom in the internal storage, I have installed it, but phone is in bootloop. And now, entering in twrp it says the storage is encrypted and asks me for the password.... now, what to do??? Damn...
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] mauronofrio:
Format data from twrp
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] galerio:
[MENTION=4712355]mauronofrio[/MENTION] Ok, I solved and reinstalled from scratch everything. What went wrong, I think, is that after TWRP installation I haven't installed Magisk immediately.

Using a tool like your can induce people to just push a button and not follow every step of a good unlocking procedure. Anyway, it was my fault. Your tool works perfectly
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] mauronofrio:
I can't do all, this tool can not replace a person. You need to root your phone or you will go in bootloop, it's a recent android feature
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] galerio:
I used your tool to flash an experimental twrp. I checked "and boot it" after flash, but nothing happens (twrp was correctly fashed, but reboot wasn't done).
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] mauronofrio:
Seems this function doesn't work on lg g6. The command sent is "fastboot boot recovery.img", it will boot the recovery image. Maybe is a recovery problem or maybe is a block from LG
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] galerio:
I understand, so it's not a "reboot into the recovery I've just flashed" but a boot into this "live recovery" image on my pc.

Thanks
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] mauronofrio:
No no. The tool normally flash the recovery you have choosed, after the flash if you have checked "And boot it" the tool will sent another command to boot the recovery you have flashed a sec before.

Italiano:

Il tool flasha la recovery e se poi hai messo la spunta su "And boot it" manderà un altro comando che la avvierà, forse è questo secondo comando che è stato disabilitato da lg
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] galerio:
Ok, that is logical! But you mentioned the command "fastboot boot recovery.img" that boots a recovery without haveing installed it.

Anyway, I love your tool, it's a drastic time saver!!! Grazie ;)
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] mauronofrio:
Preciso, "fastboot boot recovery.img" non flasha la recovery ma la avvia semplicemente, se però prima tu hai usato il comando "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" ti avvia la recovery che hai su. Su alcuni device se dopo il flash non avvii direttamente la TWRP questa si perde e viene risostituita con la stock, ho aggiunto quel comando per ovviare a questo piccolo problemino. Da fastboot non c'è purtroppo un comando generico che riavvia il telefono in recovery (per intenderci non esiste un "fastboot reboot recovery" come invece c'è per adb "adb reboot recovery"), quindi questo è anche l'unico modo per passare da fastboot a recovery senza dover premere dei tasti sul telefono. Io vedo questo tool utile agli inesperti, ed anche una buona base per i già esperti. Scusami l'Italiano ma mi faccio capire sicuramente meglio così.

Precisely, "fastboot boot recovery.img" does not flash recovery but starts it simply, but if before you've used the "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" command, it starts the recovery you have. On some devices if after the flash does not start directly the TWRP this is lost and rebuilt with the stock, I added that command to overcome this little problem. From fastboot there is, unfortunately, no generic command that restarts the phone in recovery (so to say there is not "fastboot reboot recovery" as there is for adb "adb reboot recovery"), so this is also the only way to go from fastboot to recovery without having to press keys on the phone. I think this tool can be useful for the inexperienced, and also a good base for the already experienced.

Hi guys! So, today I bought a "barely used" LG G6 at what seemed like a pretty good price at the time. I was pretty happy with it until I realized it won't install some of the apps and claims they're incompatible with my device. Well, then I realized that I've been ****ed over big time and that the bootloader has been unlocked. I probably don't have a valid warranty now, do I?

Since I never poked around Android phones, all of the information I found on re-locking the bootloader seem pretty vague and incomprehensible to me. And the only video I found of a guy re-locking the phone just shows the phone in front of him and him mumbling stuff that's he's just doing on his computer, not actually showing the computer screen so I can at least begin to figure out what he's talking about. In short, I need "re-locking the bootloader on LG G6 for dummies". I really don't have a clue how it goes or what I'm supposed to to, so I would appreciate any help you may provide.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] mauronofrio:
You were the first to ask before doing a ****, this tool only send a generic command to lock your bootloader, but before lock your bootloader you must have a complete stock rom on your phone. Advise you to use the lg tool to install a stock rom, as a result you should find yourself with the rom stock and with the bootloader locked
