Thanks for the swift reply.

So the TWRP linked in the main post for h918 is for the firmware prior to 10r?
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
Basically the only way to have TWRP (any version) and be on 10r is to have TWRP already and flash the 10r flashable zip from the thread on here. There is no way to go back from 10r to a rootable version.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Zenns:
Hi possible if you build for H990DS
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
Just added experimental H990 build
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
Are you using the second H918 version I listed? Try the first one (thats about how far apart they are iirc).
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
Not worried about the errors since the time itself is fine, got a new build up that should be good for yours.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] SJMarty:
I saw date issues mentioned in the fixes but that was a month or more ago.

When you say "never right" do you mean the build for the H918 or just build v3.2.1-2?
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
First Ive heard of it... I cant fix things I don't know about. Did it work on any of my builds?

[MENTION=4193208]SJMarty[/MENTION] at first I was thinking might have been a freak once off (the date gets checked to make sure its 2018 every few seconds), but since [MENTION=1337208]scottyrick[/MENTION] has problems too, I'll see about a better solution.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] scottyrick:
Sorry for not reporting it earlier. Date and time were perfect on the 04-06 build. They have not been perfect since.

H918 v3.2.1-2
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] SJMarty:
On another note...when creating a backup, in the partition list, what is the difference between the "System" and "System Image" partitions?
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
System backs up the individual files, system image backs up the exact layout of how its stored on the disk. They both generally get the job done, but system image is more exact but uses more space.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] shadavis08:
You can edit it yourself and change it to whatever you want.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] hotcell:
Date n time are fine on h990ds at least starting from 3.2.1-1 and up.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
Guessing you're running Lineage? The problem was in my script that changes affects the time from stock based ROMs more.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] hotcell:
Nope. Pure stock with dots 1.5 kernel + Magisk. But I thought we are talking about recovery timestamps?
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
Yeah, but TWRP uses a file (stored in /persist/time) thats maintained by the rom that says the current offset from what the hardware clock is and stock and Lineage have a different number for some reason so I made TWRP's default to have Lineage time accurate and made a script that checks if it's wrong like it is with stock ROMs and adjust it.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
[MENTION=4193208]SJMarty[/MENTION] [MENTION=1337208]scottyrick[/MENTION] pretty sure I fixed it with 3.2.1-3
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] scottyrick:
You have. Time and date are perfect again. H918 3.2.1-3
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] hotcell:
Well, then apparently your script just works:good:
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
Well I did fix a couple issues in this mornings release in the script. Didn't take into account doing math with a number would drop a leading zero so it wasn't working for days 1-9 of the month.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] hotcell:
Ouch! then your new fix introduced a new bug at least in h990ds. Just saw year 1973 in v-2, flashed v -3 and now backup offers right time but wrong date 2018-05-04.

Thanks for multipartition USB support, although it shows 5 partitions and mounts usb1 and usb4, is OTG USB just a handle or placeholder, or there all 5 partitions max? Guess you made the space for 4 primary partitions according to dos time standard...

EDIT: Have to withdraw bug report above, as after subsequent 2nd boot into TWRP v-3, after intermediate booting into system, the date shows right also!
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] SJMarty:
Yessir...working perfectly!
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] TraderJack:
I just wanted to make sure this behavior was normal on my VS995:

Whenever I enter recovery it gives me a white "factory reset" screen. I have to select yes to reset and then it brings me to the same screen again.

When selecting yes the second time it launches TWRP.

normal?

thanks.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cnjax:
Yes, it's normal
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Qron:
On 3.21.-3 I'm unable to use external SSD (which I'm using as pendrive) as OTG device. I can still mount it under TWRP and browse it with file manager, but it's seen as USB-OTG-1.

I went back to 3.2.1-2. H990
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
This is normal, I made a change so that if the ssd had more than one partition it would list and be able to mount all of them.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Qron:
Sure I understand, but because of this I'm unable to chose it as source storage for installing things or making nand backup.

It has only one partition, but issue might be specific for this drive. It's Intel 540 in m.2 to USB case.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
no its not specific to your drive, I see the issue (looks like twrp doesn't add entries to the select storage menu for wildcard fstab entries).. I'll fix it soon
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] jimzweb1:
I was wondering if you had a fix for the date and time issues. Does the battery still read 50% sometimes? Definitely would like to flash your version of twrp! Any info would be great!!!
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
No time issue at the moment. Battery indicator works fine 95% of the time, mostly it seems to get thrown off by rebooting from twrp to twrp again.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Sadistic_Loser:
Not to be rude, but in all honesty this is terrible, just use the material design for TWRP. Much much much much better
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] hotcell:
Rather strange request. Recovery isn't something you either sitting nor staring at. The functionality is what required. In that regard the author did excellent work. The only recovery that works on our devices in full. Likewise, I don't see a feasibility to put a time and effort for at least questionable extra value. Maybe you could do that part and just show us the screens with difference, and send source code and politely ask the author to integrate, if he is interested?

I personally don't see anything is missing and very thankful for the TWRP as it is.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Same. I'd rather have a full working TWRP.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Sadistic_Loser:
I think you misread what I wrote, I am very happy that we got TWRP. I was quoting someone who had used a theme for TWRP that was (In my opinion, a ugly theme) worse compared to the original theme. Not saying this TWRP is bad or ugly, you'd have to be a moron to criticizes the original, especially since hard work was put into it. I appreciate the work being not only done on this device but the work that'll be done in the future. I could care less about the the way TWRP looks, as long as it functions the way it should.

So with that said, I'd like to thank [MENTION=2881807]x86cpu[/MENTION], [MENTION=8639605]Phoenix591[/MENTION], and [MENTION=227485]dudeawesome[/MENTION] for the awesome support, I have said this multiple times before and I'll say it again, thank you for the free and open support on this device.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] x86cpu:
I add [MENTION=5103965]Omar-Avelar[/MENTION] as a thank you too. He is helpful for some Lineage kernel changes.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] shadavis08:
Umm you kidding lol opinions.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] DesertEagleSlim:
If I have an h910 but rooted using us996 dev bootloader (dirty santa) which recovery do I use? H910 or Us996? Wanted to know before I try to flash/update and mess up my recovery thanks
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
H910. Not that theres a whole lot of difference, but the us996 might complain when you try to install h910 roms.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] SJMarty:
Hate to bring up the date issue again...I went to run a backup today and the backup name was yesterday's date. I rebooted from recovery into recovery and tried again with the same results.

I'm running 3.2.1-3 on an H918.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] hotcell:
Maybe you need to boot into system once to sync the recovery clock?
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] SJMarty:
I had rebooted several times but did it again today. Selected the backup option and it populated with yesterday's date.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] goldybewon:
New to LG...!

Hi

You did a great job for LG.

I have read many threads for last few days and found there is no easy method for rooting and flashing twrp.

I want to confirm at this moment fastboot flash is not working with T-Mobile H91810t firmware.

Please suggest me trusted method of rooting and flashing twrp on t mobile.

Thanks,

goldybewon

LG V20 T-Mobile

H91810t - Stock
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
confirmed fastboot flash missing on h918, to root: go to developer options, allow oem unlocking then adb reboot bootloader then fastboot oem unlock and then use lg up to rollback to 10p/10q (those are safe to rollback to as they are arb 1 just like 10t is). Then carefully follow this guide. Once youve rooted and installed the exact twrp used in the guide feel free to upgrade to mine using (twrp) install-install image or on a rooted rom flashify or similar.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
Yeah the time is being buggy again, its whats holding me back from releasing a couple changes
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] shadavis08:
Whatever you say! Good day.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Sadistic_Loser:
See now that's a beautiful theme. I meant nothing offensive by what I said earlier. I don't know if you made this but it looks amazing.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cnjax:
Just flashed your latest twrp on my 910 went without a glitch. Thanks for your contribution. Just wanted to note that after reboot into recovery after the flash the time appeared correct.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] poixninja:

I just tried the most recent version of TWRP 3.2.1-3 for H910, and I think F2FS is broken. Haven't check older version or other file system format either, but F2FS is broken for sure.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] jerryspring:
Vs995 ok to flash?
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Yes. Download TWRP for your VS995 from this link. https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=962339331458990457
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] poixninja:
Just a warning:

DO NOT TRY AND USE ADB TO DO TWRP BACK UPS!!!

It will not recover, at least on vs995 - LOS 15.1 06/11/18.

I'm looking into why and how to resolve the issue now, and will keep things updated.

But I lost all my data today.

If adb backups work for you, please pm me what rom and recovery version you use, but BE CAREFUL. keep an in-place backup on your phone as well as the adb backup!

Edit: all other functions are fine as far as i know, just the adb backups via

adb backup --twrp

are broken.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] jerryspring:
Shouldn't twrp us996 work on a vs995? Asking cuz dirty santa exploit flashed 3.0.2 twrp for us996 and it works
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cnjax:
Dude, don't quote the OP, it's unnecessary and very annoying
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] poixninja:
As cnjax said, don't quote OP, but it might work, however it isn't recommend. If you have vs995 flash that.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] brandik685:
someone is probably going to get mad because this information is available on one of the other 10 thousand threads but I have been at this for days and I cant get past the twrp 3.0.2-1 build issues. I am runing the h918 10q, my bootloader is unlocked, my phone is rooted with magisk. the version of twrp I have asks for a password and then will not mount my internal storage, so i cant put any files there to flash. it wont show any files i put on my sd card to flash either. the only way i could get magisk to flash was to push it with adb, but it seems I cant push any other format besides .zip files. I tried to just follow the steps to initially flash twrp after bootloader unlock but i get a fail message. I used 7zip to put my recovery.img into a zip file and pushed onto my sd card, it worked but now I am nervous to flash it because my twrp also does not read my sd card storage space accurately so I cant do a backup in case I mess something up. I know how to fix all these problems- I need to flash a different version of twrp and instead of reboot back into system i need to reboot right back to recovery in order to keep it from getting encrypting or something.

to sum this all up i need to do a clean install of twrp without being able to see img files in twrp, push a .img file manually with adb, or use fastboot mode commands with adb. and all without a twrp backup to revert back to. (i did a backup with titanium and saved it to my sd card as well as pc but that's just apps i think now system image)

there is probably some easy method i have over looked but i don't want to flash the zip i made of the recovery.img until i get other peoples opinion that know way more about this than me. Please someone help
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
the zip with just recovery.img wont work. All you should have to do is on the twrp install screen, hit the image button, then browse to your sdcard and recovery.img should be visible. Tap it, then tap recovery on the screen that shows up asking where to install it.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] brandik685:
I copied the original tarp 3.2.1-3 OMG to the root of my SD and I put a copy into my download folder on SD. I tried to find them in read only mode and the allow modifications mode in tarp but they are not there. My internal storage says 0 and mb SD card says around 9,000 mb but I know I have at least 11 gb of free space on my SD card. When I go back to my PC and look for the img file they are gone also. Once before I found a post that said to format data and then factory reset but that takes me all the way back to having to flask Magisk again and I'm back to where I am now. That's why I wanted to do it through and on my PC. Should I try the adb sideload option. I briefly saw a post about it this morning but it seems complicated
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
ok, heres an even simpler way to install since you're already rooted: just download the flashify app and use it to flash the img.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] brandik685:
OMG that worked perfectly in like 3 seconds. Thank you so much. Now maybe I can get good stable Tom and I'll be good to go.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Redline:

[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] pressmoon:
Exactly. Waste of time scrolling to get to the end of it.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] SJMarty:
On my H918 I just tried it and it was successful. The backup was 53496 MB and took 3290 seconds.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
That's what the CODE tag is for. But I tested it when I added it, havnt retested on the current version, but I will soon.. Tbh I'm not entirely sold on keeping it in, not sure if it cooperates if /data is encrypted and its not that hard to manually backup internal storage for personal files.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] luuhungit:
don't support kdzwriter

I have to use TWRP v3.0 of US996 for H990DS to update via kdzwriter
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
Kdzwriter should be included in the latest several versions for all variants, including the H990* variant listed in the OP. You shouldn't use the US996 download, as the H990 needs a slightly different display fix if I remember correctly.

If that doesn't cover your question/concern please try to restate it more clearly (if you are trying to use it on one of my H990 builds and theres some error message please include the full error message) because I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to say.

TWRP 3.2.2-0 is out - with some fixes for date handling for Qualcomm devices so you may have to remove your fixes :), let us know if you want any testing.

https://github.com/TeamWin/twrpme/blob/master/_posts/2018-07-01-twrp-3.2.2-0-released.markdown

* adb backup fixes
* OTA style update zips will now install automatically without prompting for decrypt
* minor tweaks to handling date/time on Qualcomm devices
* updates to some language translations
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
Well, those ARE my fixes ;)

Anyway I'll do up a build soon for the other minor changes.

:o oops.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] bigcletus:
When I try to restore backups, they will not get past the pin/pattern screen on boot and it's not accepting the pin I had created. Somehow my backups are getting encrypted. I have been formating data and wiping all partitions before flashing a stock ROM. Then if I make a backup once things are running good, the TWRP folder is only accessable from within TWRP, not with the ROM booted through a file manager. What am I doing wrong? I'm on version 3.2.1-0 H918. Thanks.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
Happens with all data backups on nearly all devices (not just the V20). One article with a way to fix it.. Not all those files will exist, just delete the ones that do.

The twrp folder by default is hidden in roms, to access it use a root file manager or give yourself permission to access it in a root shell (either in twrp advanced->terminal or an adb shell youve used su in or another terminal app youve ran su in)

chmod +x /data/media/0/TWRP
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] bigcletus:
Thanks for the info! My last phone was a G3 so this V20 has been a little bit of a learning curve.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] x86cpu:
Or flash my lockscreen-db_removed-signed.zip from my unofficial 15.1 thread. It does the same thing.

What Rom are you running Lineage 14, Lineage 15, or a stock based rom?
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Gadianton:
I just installed on 918 with super v20 4.0 rom and had no issues decrypting. Thanks.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Capt_rusty:
lineage-15.1-20180712-UNOFFICIAL-h918-10p.zip, decrypted under 3.2.1-3 no problem (recovery-twrp-h918-2018-05-05.IMG)

If you think it would be useful, I'm cool with doing a clean flash of lineage and re-encrypting to see if it makes a difference.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
[MENTION=2881807]x86cpu[/MENTION] so I just tried encrypting a mostly fresh lineage install twice and it would just hang at the lineage boot animation, I''ve an H918 myself (my us996 let the magic smoke out literally through the usb port) now. I let it sit 30 minutes after encrypting and reentering my pin after the reboot since it was a super fresh install, 2nd time after formatting data I was less patient and let it go maybe 10-15 minutes. Pretty sure it was the same build as above from the 12th or 13th.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Capt_rusty:
Oh wow, that's worse than where I am, sorry for not being specific enough. I actually only can't decrypt data when in twrp, but I can boot to system with encryption no problem, though I did dirty flash lineage, so maybe that made a difference.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] x86cpu:
Battery pull? I'm have to wipe and try an new encryption again.
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
Yep, set up everything unencrypted on 15.1 for now. I was running on Alpha previously and it was working with the stock encryption.. I haven't tried 14.1 I suppose, but this is a post 10p h918 so can't do it personally (well, not without building my own unofficial with those 3 blobs replaced). I didn't touch anything encryption related personally between releases, but there was this upstream commit that may have broken something
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] NicoCoded:
I am currently testing out this version on LS997 and will report my findings soon.

TWRP 3.0.2-1 is causing major issues where the tar process is killed for no good reason during /system backup.

Also, major off topic, I realize I'm new here but I am trying to start a new thread called "[FIX] [LS997] modem.img - No Service issues after downgrade / ROM flash" --- I've posted my fix for the annoying No Network issues that I've come across after flashing a VS995 KDZ to my Sprint LS997 version ZV7. Ugh looks like I can't even post the links. Even though all the NAM settings were correct and the modem partition was supposedly not flashed, it somehow got corrupted. However I did a full dump of the stock Sprint firmware incl EFS and all partitions available via LG UP.

So anyways, can someone grant me permission to post new threads? I've also got an LS997 KDZ file that I'm SURE everyone in this subforum wants to see posted.

If I can't be promoted then maybe someone else in here can post the thread for me? Send me a PM if you would be able to copy+paste a few threads for me.

Thanks!
[LG V20 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Phoenix591:
Don't share your efs or any other partition not in a regular kdz... there is a reason there's not already one: it's unique to each phone and controls the IMEI among other things.

As for the forum, xda like many oher forums requires people to make some replies before starting their own threads or sharing links, hinders spam bots.
