I don't understand why US carriers are such assholes.

Why the need to create different models, steal accessories from the box, use different bands, lock down the phones, unlike what the manufacturer decided etc?

It's just stupid. Why don't the people complain about some of those issues? Sorry for the offtopic, just didn't find a more appropriate thread to say that.

TWRP SuperSU LG V30+ H930DS

[MENTION=5672995]jcadduono[/MENTION]

Hello from Italy.

I'm waiting for you to get me LG V30 + H930DS unlocked purchased here:

https://www.bravobuy.co.it/it_IT/product/lg-v30-h930ds-dual-sim-libero-128gb-4g-argento.html

I wanted to ask you a courtesy.

I do not know English to read all the post # 1.

With which adb command you installed the TWRP and which SuperSU did you use for the Root ... ???

Thank you.

Google translator
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
Good question about SuperSU. I'm curious to know also, for when the US998 gets added to the LG Developer Bootloader Unlock list.

On some phones like the Moto Quark, you have to actually FIRST flash a specific older version of SuperSu, THEN you can update to the latest SuperSu.

So, which SuperSu can you flash on the LG V30 for current Nougat 7.1.2?

The answer may change for when it's upgraded to Oreo...
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Mr. Schnabel:
Yes, suck to be stuck at 10f. Holefully we maybe have someone soon that can provide a flashable .zip to upgrade. Would be worth a bounty thread if you ask me :)

[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] SGCMarkus:
Your /data partition seems to be partly encrypted (or fully encrypted in a way the rom doesnt know how to decrypt it).

Completly formatting /data in TWRP should remove any form of encryption (not just advanced format -> data/internal, you have to use the other option that requires you to type "yes") and make it usable again (if the rom afterwards decides to encrypt it again or not depends on if you flashed no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip or not)

Hi!

I've got the same issue and would like to try your solution. Can you tell me, how to flash stock recovery? Where can I get the file? Did you format the data partition in TWRP?

Just flash it as it is? OP says H932 should work too if someone manages to flash it which is after all an US variant too. You can't brick anything by flashing /recovery.

[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] kanauru:
That's why I'm asking if you tried US998U , not US998, because US998 is specifically the non plus model.

It's possible the V30+ requires you to use US998U and not US998.

I just wanted confirmation on this, thanks.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
Are you sure? I thought US998U meant it (both the V30/V30+) was the officially carrier unlocked model.

As opposed to the U.S.Cellular model US998...

It doesn't refer to storage, that I'm aware of.

But I have no problem trying it when I get home...

[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] SGCMarkus:
It doest recognize /data (or /data/media which is your internal storage) because its using a special LG encryption. TWRP cant decrypt that.

If you want it to recognize it, perform a backup of everything you love of your internal storage and perform the following steps:

1) fully format /data (the one where you have to confirm with "yes")

2) flash the no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip (when you then boot up again it wont encrypt anything and you can perform backups like youre used to :) )

3) go through the initial setup again (as you completly wiped data, but atleast you can do backups from now on)

Could someone send me a boot.img ?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] kanauru:
BH and the LG website lists it specifically as LGUS998U so I was just judging off of that.

But like someone posted in another thread and what my coder friend said, it's possible that it doesn't even matter what we rename the drop down as , as long as we select US997.

If that's the case , that means the V30+ is not available. At least for now ...hopefully.

But it'll be great if you can try anyways. Thanks chazz

sorry to bother, but probably i'm too stupid and can't understand instructions.

i managed to unlock my h930 and to flash twrp.img in recovery partition.

still in bootloader i press volume down to switch to power off, and i power off the device.

then i press vol down and power, when i see the white on black "lg v30" i release power for one moment and then press again: it enters a factory reset menu. i navigate to yes with volume buttons on the two screens, after o give ok with the power button it does not enter twrp, as i would expect, it appears a screen with "your device software cannot be checked for corruption. Lock the bootloader", and then it boots in the android os... what am i doing wrong?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Wotta:
Same question. I can install it, but seem completely unable to boot into TWRP. Following the normal recovery process results in a soft bootloop.

The Developer Options do know that the boot loader is unlocked, but I can't save TWRP on it.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
It took me several tries. When you see the LG V30 logo, quickly release power button and immediately press again.

Say yes you want to remove all data. You have to actually answer that same question two or three times before it will reboot into TWRP. And yes, in between you'll see the very annoying bootloader unlock warning.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] airone12:
actually i have become quite good at entering the factory data reset menu right after flashing twrp... problem is that even after that it does not enter twrp, it just reboots.

i also realized that, once, i flashed the wrong twrp (one for lg h815)... i am afraid that is the real issue here.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Mr. Schnabel:
Try down or upgrading to different fw version via .kdz and then install twrp. I am too only managed to get it to work on 10f and no chance on 10v or 11m on international H930 ... Maybe different fw vers. helps. Other too had same problem on H930 and it worked only with 10f fw
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Dwaalspoor98:
I also had to downgrade to 10f to make it work, was able to install the debloated 11m version through TWRP after that ;)

I downgraded to 10f, installed twrp, magisk and the no-verity-opt file as well as the rct disabler file without any problems. Then I flashed the 11m rom.

Everything seemed fine, no problems to boot normaly or to boot into twrp manually. Except I cannot do backups via twrp. Not at sdcard, internal memory or my otg-usb-stick.

The backup starts and runs until system image and then it says: backup failed. Cleaning up backup files. No more explanations. I tried 5 times...

Any ideas?

What to do with TWRP decrypt pw screen? ignore?

Like others I've tried my pin, pw and defualt_password, none working of course. I haven't beem able to dig up a definitive answer on what exactly I'm supposed to do with this screen. I saw it discussed on page 5 and on, it was mentioned something about op said he didn't mess with / support encryption etc. but nothing was ever mentioned, at least that I saw what the poster was supposed to do about the (password/ mount decrypt) screen.

So it can be skipped, but the immediate problem I see, on the next screen I'm only left with one option,to set system read only, which I have to select in order to enter TWRP menu. In the Unlocking and Rooting - TWRP/Magisk Step-by-Step thread the op clearly instructs, after booting into TWRP the first time, to set system writable. If I had seen the option to do so after cancelling the password screen, I would have simply went on with the next steps. Couldnt find any option in the menus tho set system writable.

I just don't want to waste my time running through all the other steps if I've not done thongs right in the first place.

Apparently this is old new for TWRP, found other forum threads where others using different phones and different versions of TWRP were having the same issue with this password screen, so many had their own solution to the problem but nothing was concrete.

will probably never work:

Encryption - LG's proprietary encryption is beyond my capabilities - it is possible to support encryption on custom ROMs however.

(you can flash no-verity-opt-encrypt then format your data partition to disable encryption) I wonder if flashing this will remove that screen...
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] bvannier:
Dear sir I saw the answer a few pages before :cyclops:

The only thing to get rid of this message in TWRP is to allow changes, then first press back and ignore the decrypt screen, then format your actual data, you know where you have to write "yes" to do it.

Then you will be allowed to use TWRP, normally :victory: and you will not have this message any more
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
Right. When you get into TWRP the first time, swipe to allow changes and then FORMAT your data (not just wipe).

Thanks alot man for your reply, that all worked, I'm all rooted and gtg now!
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] breacherman:
Well I was getting ready to flash my first rom on this thing when I discovered, like a handful of others on this thread I wasn't able to boot into twrp, only getting stock recovery (white factory data reset screen to be clear). I've read every page on this thread, but am unable to find a solution for myself.

I've successfully flashed twrp, on multiple occasions actually, swipe to allow modifications, backed up, data wiped, installed magisk, no-verity and LG-rctd-disabler. Those are all the steps I took.

I am rooted now, but yea, like others booting into recovery gives me stock recovery, volume + power, release and press at lg logo etc.

I have the understanding, you just basically need to make sure you boot directly into twrp right after flashing, which again, to get twrp to stcik. I've lost count of how many times I've done that at this point.

I'm have the US998 so I'm on 10c. As usual, maybe I'm missing somthing, hope someone can pick up on somthing I'm doing wrong.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] dvgb173:
Where you say data wiped, you should have FORMATTED the data partition. Did you do that? If not, you get to start over.

Or so I've read.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] breacherman:
Yea, that's right, I did format data, the one where you had to type yes before going through with it?

I realize I did only do that once, all the other times I kept reflashing twrp trying to get it stick, I wasn't formatting data each time, so I suppose all those times were irrelevant, wouldn;t have stuck anyway. I didn't see anyone mention on the thread that these processes were necessary in order to make twrp stick. I understood just as long as you enter twrp after flashing it should stick.

In the twrp install instructions, op mentions two wipes, factory reset, and format partition. I did the factory reset, the second though was the option "format data". I never did anything that was labeled "format partition".

I'm going through the whole process again atm though, we'll see what happens. Thanks for your response man.

---------- Post added at 02:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:37 AM ----------

Ok, so I went through the complete process twice, I did realize the first two times I completed the entire process, I did the wipes out of order according to the instructions, factory reset first, then format data, which I am assuming at this point is the same as "format partition. I'm still booting into stock recovery. I swear I've followed every step to the tee at this point..

The only problem is if he doesn't immediately boot to custom recovery after flashing custom recovery, the custom recovery doesn't stick. He still has stock recovery. So, that app won't help. If he boots to regular LG GUI to use that app, it's already too late.

After flashing custom recovery while on the bootloader screen, you then have to power off the phone and do the "button dance" to boot to recovery, and allow TWRP to write to memory. THEN, you can boot to regular LG GUI and use an app (like TWRP manager) to reboot to TWRP whenever you want.

Now, if you've already done the button dance, and TWRP is actually installed, yes apps like hololight reboot or TWRP manager will let you reboot to TWRP.
