[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] seadersn:
would like to know these advantages, too :)

could it be, that the advantages are that it won't get overwritten and that you can flash kdz with it then? at least the v20 has a module named "kdz writer", which is built from source for that device. (edit: after closer look this is not connected to each other, kdzwriter is a binary independent of laf partition).
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
But TWRP won't get overwritten if you just uncheck "recovery" partitions in dev patched LGUP when flashing KDZ.

Of course KDZ flashing needs PC with dev patched LGUP. You're saying with V20 there's a way to flash KDZ without a PC? There's no way with V30 that I know of. So, you still need PC no matter what, if you ever want to flash stock KDZ. Unless you just stick to custom ROMs, which you can flash with regular TWRP and can download on your phone.

I'm really curious what the TWRP LAF advantage is, because I don't see it just looking at it from the outside. Maybe with the V20 it solved something, some problem we don't have with the V30. Maybe with the V20 they couldn't flash TWRP over stock recovery or something? And they HAD to do it that way? I don't know, as I am not familiar with V20 development.

DOWNLOAD LINK IN WTF GUIDE

[MENTION=3475147]SGCMarkus[/MENTION], for now I have uploaded [MENTION=3138121]seadersn[/MENTION]'s updated TWRP to Android File Hosts and that's the link I'm posting in my WTF Guide. When you get a chance to update the OP to include this newer version or even your own TWRP update, I'll change the link back to this thread. I am not taking credit for TWRP, but right now I just wanted to get a reliable download link for TWRP-3.2.3.0 into play.

Added LAF/Download mode as a target for flashing images and creating backups, you may replace laf/download mode with a second twrp install if you so choose.

I think he's thinking of the above that's after the date. Looking in the v20 threads and this is from a changelog in twrp.

The kdz writer looks very interesting though
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] seadersn:
so nothing special: it just adds this partition for being able to backup, mount or flash it within twrp. no real advantage :D we can enable this partition on v30 too, but on the other side it's not really a partition to play with.

btw: first encryption tests were partially successful. it's a mess to restore a rom with this encryption enabling config, but aosp encrypted (not stock, for now) partitions can be decrypted, backed up, mounted, restored and read in twrp.

if someone wants to test this, feel free to send me a pm :good:

edit: i'll do a build with this kdz writer included, this really looks interesting :good:

edit2: i'll do a dedicated thread for the new recovery. i'll test this kdzwriter stuff and will post this in about four to five hours. stay tuned :)

edit3: kdzwriter included, works from commandline on phone :)
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] seadersn:
Here is the TWRP Joan 3.2.3.0 with timefix and kdzwriter module integrated mentioned above. Module is accessible / executable via adb or TWRP's integrated terminal. Maybe mainly the modem / bootloader / partition table writing options of kdzwriter are of interest.

Btw: TWRP now has some mount- and explorable extra partitions, even the seemingly beloved LAF partition is integrated (only for backup and restore, not explore) :silly: don't do bs to it :svetius: encryption stuff almost completely disabled, this just isn't ready for the moment; it's nice to play with, but nothing i would like to provide support for.

have fun with it :D some info from kdzwriter testers / users would be nice :) it's tested and confirmed working (kdzwriter off), but sry, i'm not responsible for anything that may happen to your phone.

[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] BROKEN1981:
You only need a PC to get TWRP /root.

After that, if you want TWRP on LAF, again, you need a PC. Then if TWRP gets updated, you need a PC again to update TWRP on LAF.

The advantage of TWRP on LAF is that it's a "get out of jail free card".

Updated your ROM but forget to flash TWRP? Boot to download mode and get greeted by TWRP. Flash TWRP to recovery and you can skip the whole "damnit! Now I have to do the whole process again!

Flashed a new version of TWRP but it bootloops? Boot to DL mode , get greeted by TWRP and flash an older version.

---------- Post added at 05:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:25 AM ----------

Being able to use TWRP to flash to LAF is a " get out of jail free card". A "safety net" if you will.

I have TWRP on my LAF. When a new TWRP is made, I use my PC to push the newer TWRP to LAF.

Never know if you flash a zip and forget to flash TWRP as well. In the event you forget to flash TWRP after the zip, just boot to download mode, get greeted by TWRP, and flash TWRP to recovery.

Here, this if from LAFSploit

OPTIONAL:

If you would like a second copy of TWRP on your laf partition (I *highly* recommend this), follow these instructions:

Download the version of TWRP that you want to install onto laf.

Rename it to twrp.img

Boot your phone to TWRP, and connect it to your PC

Open a command prompt where you downloaded TWRP and type:

adb push twrp.img /sdcard/

adb shell dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/laf

With the phone off, hold vol up and plug in the USB cable and you should be greeted by your second copy of TWRP.

CLEANING UP:

If you do NOT want TWRP on laf, then we at least need to get the H932 laf back onto your phone.

Download this zip onto your phone: h932_laf.zip

Boot to TWRP

Choose install, and browse to where you downloaded the zip

When it finishes flashing, you will have the H932 laf back.

I can't say this enough, you should really consider keeping two copies of TWRP around. You will never be in a situation where you go: "Man, I wish I had download mode, but all I have is TWRP".

However, there are plenty of times that you may wish that you had a second copy of TWRP. Imagine flashing a ROM that wipes out recovery. Oppps. Imagine flashing a new version of TWRP and

it doesn't boot -- again -- opps.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] lost_:
Google LG LAF Partition and you'll have a better understanding of what Brian said about the importance of a second copy of TWRP in the LAF partition (in addition to the first TWRP in the regular recovery partition). In emergency cases, LG phones look for what to boot in LAF, which normally stores the Download Mode. If you store (a second copy of) TWRP in LAF, then you'll have TWRP instead of Download Mode for those emergency cases (especially when you don't have a PC to ADB boot an image). It's your choice what to keep in your LAF: factory download mode or TWRP. And you can always change what's in there.

After all said and done, the first TWRP copy in the regular recovery partition shouldn't need reflashing unless something unexpectedly wipes it.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] me2151:
Thats for H932 since H932 doesnt have Laf anymore and doesnt have flashing commands in fastboot. so if something happens to twrp you would have to redo everything. HOWEVER for other devices i would not recommend replacing laf because its a easy fix for them. So please dont recommend flashing twrp to laf on non h932 devices.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] seadersn:
i would recommend this too (ehm, *not* flashing twrp to LAF xD). reasons told :) who wants it can do it now, as this partition is included in twrp now.

a little idea:

[MENTION=3475147]SGCMarkus[/MENTION] what do you think about letting me do recoveries (in a new thread) including updates etc pp so you and [MENTION=4591212]me2151[/MENTION] can dedicate all your ((because of studium =) rest-) power for developing roms etc? i already did recovery stuff back in htc hd2, sensation, hox etc. times and have some experience (and some plans too) in doing them. my proposal: opening a new thread and start fresh, in the beginning with this new kdzwriter recovery and later maybe encryption stuff included (in ramdisk, not via script as it is now ;)). i e.g. want to add a new entry for wiping /sdcard/Android too, as this is helpful when starting completely fresh, with a rom structurized an other way the before installed one was (stock vs. aosp for example).

now, as my androidfilehost account is up, i have the possibility to share these recoveries in an easy way (mega.nz mirror via bit.ly link will be provided too).

let me know what you think about this. i ask this because of i need to know if i should dedicate some extra time for being available for the folks and their problems (support etc): which is not needed when you continue this ;)
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] SGCMarkus:
I dont mind, and yeah, im rather busy with other things (not only roms). I actually only made this TWRP out of neccessity :p

And thats also kinda the reason no updates were published anymore... I didnt need anything more ?

[G Pad 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jason2678:
You must be on lollipop. You have to be on the kitkat bootloader to run custom recovery/roms.

Do not try to replace kingroot with supersu. That has been reported to brick this tablet.

Since you seem to be on rooted lollipop, the only guy left who seems to be interested in maintaining LOS for the V400/410 has said he'd like to get the LP blobs. A system dump would be helpful, if you'd be willing to pull it and share it. This should pull it:

su
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system of=/sdcard/system.img

People have successfully downgraded the V410 from lollipop to kitkat using the kdz for the V411. There is a test kdz for the V410 too, but it makes a mess of the internal storage and has some other issues. I wouldn't recommend the V410 kdz since we have a better alternative.

Once you're on stock kitkat, you can root it with purpledrake. Then use flashify to flash TWRP and flash away.
