[LG V30 Questions & Answers] d3viou5:
Hi,

I have a H932, unlocked bootloader and twrp installed twice as advised in thisthread.

I've tried liquid, lineage and Resurrection and all of them except RR bootloop. I'm assuming because it is a GSI? I'm flashing the H932 versions of all these roms.

I must have missed something so if anyone has any suggestions?

I wonder if it's because I'm using TWRP 3.2.3-7 instead of 3.3.0 but I couldnt flash the No_Verity files using the latest version so had to drop back to 3.2.3-7. If this is the case, how do I flash those files to ensure I don't get encrypted. What happens if I don't flash the files and end up encrypted?

I am clutching at straws here, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] SGCMarkus:
My lineage is tested on H932, and works ?

Whats your flashing process exactly?

Wipe system, data, cache and dalvik cache (after you took a backup)

and then flash

ROM, Gapps, (optionally) Magisk

For encryption: all AOSP roms have /data set to encryptable, not forceencrypt, so except you (try to) enable encryption in the settings, it wont do anything (and even that is broken to my knowledge)
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
You are using the right TWRP.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] d3viou5:
Hey, thanks for the response. I'm just reading through the [ROOT] H932 - lafploit 1.5 up to v20k thread again and realised I haven't flashed a stock Oreo TWRP flashable rom before flashing lineage. Do I need to do this?

I have factory reset in TWRP and wiped system, data, cache / dalvik and then flashed the rom, gapps, magisk and No_Verity 6.

If not flashing an Oreo rom is the issue, can you recommend one? I've got a 3 gig H932_20o.zip from the root thread, but really I'm just interested in the custom roms.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
That's old. Flash the H932 20S

Yeah you shouldn't go from Nougat H932 firmware to Pie custom ROMs.

People have fingerprint sensor issues, etc. if they don't have at least Oreo firmware when flashing custom ROMs

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Well, I hope that solves your issues. But yeah, you are using correct TWRP and yeah you do need newer stock firmware than Nougat before flashing custom ROMs.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] d3viou5:
Thanks again, I'm rocking Lineage from February and everything seems to be working great.

I'm just wondering if someone can actually clarify what I've done by following the H932 TWRP and Root guide. I've been flashing roms since the days of the original XDA and the HTC HD2, but this seems like one of the wierder devices and I'd really like to understand what's going on.

So I have 2 versions of TWRP. One on LAF and one on the bootloader?

What is LAF?

In my haste I flashed the old H932_20o which works for now and has made the february Pie roms work, but I would like to flash the H932_20r from here, as from what I understand this is necessary to ensure less issues with the April pie roms. If I flash the full version of this, will it overwrite LAF?

Do I even need to retain TWRP on LAF when it's already on the bootloader? Do I need to boot back into FWUL and run the script from there to get TWRP back onto LAF if the 20o rom overwrote it? I'd try and find out myself, but it seems the only way to get into the TWRP on the LAF is to hold down and go through that wipe process with the white screens, which i'd rather avoid.

No one seems to talk about vendor images being flashed to match the latest security updates. Is this becuase LG are so slow in releasing vendor updates?

Apologies for all the questions. I appreciate that these have probably been answered already, but they are spread across multiple vendors of hundereds of pages and I'm having trouble piecing all this information together.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Why 20r? Why not newer 20s?

LAF TWRP is redundant and you no longer have LGUP Download mode, since you wiped it out from flashing 2nd copy of TWRP over your LAF partition.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] d3viou5:

Yeah you can flash H932 20r for now.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] d3viou5:
So if I flash the full stock, it'll update the LAF, recovery, bootloader and modem firmware. Which is presumably what I want if I want to be on the most up to date vendor, modem etc.

But if it overwrites LAF and the bootloader with stock presumably somehow I've got to get TWRP back onto it? Can I just flash a TWRP image to the bootloader straight after the stock flash or do I need to go back to FWUP to do this?

I think I'll wait for the 20s version, but it'd be useful to fully understand what's going on so I don't brick it.

If I do brick it, can I just go back to LG UP and flash the 10d version and follow the guide again?

OK, should read properly:

None of these Zips flash the Recovery partition.

Besides StockLAF, these Zips DO NOT flash the LAF partition.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
This is TWRP-flashable zip. You will not lose TWRP custom recovery. Why would you brick it?

You need to read the instructions, please.

IF you flash the LAF file, you will regain Download mode and "lose" the redundant copy of TWRP you also flashed over your LAF partition.

"Flashing LAF WILL REMOVE TWRP from your laf partition and restore stock DL Mode"

"None of these Zips flash the Recovery partition."

You may have to flash the no encryption and no root check files again, besides Magisk.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] d3viou5:
I think I'm misunderstanding where TWRP is actually located on the device. I am reading, just failing to understand.

So basically never flash a LAF zip or a recovery partition and I'll never loose TWRP. Stay away from unmodified KDZ's.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
You have it in two places right now. In your recovery partition (normal), as it's TWRP custom recovery that replaces the useless stock recovery.

And due to the way the H932 root Instructions are written you also flashed it over your LAF partition, where your Download mode WAS. Right now, you no longer have LGUP Download mode if you wanted to use that, and instead you have TWO copies of TWRP.

In the WTF INSTRUCTIONS, we never do that. However, the dev who rooted the H932 (and wrote those Instructions) feels there's an advantage to having TWO copies of TWRP and giving up LGUP Download mode. Been discussed in depth elsewhere and we've agreed to disagree.

When you flash H932 20R TWRP flashable zip, you can choose to keep both copies of TWRP or you can choose to restore your Download mode and have the normal recovery partition copy of TWRP. Your choice.

---------- Post added at 02:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 AM ----------

Right now you couldn't flash a KDZ if you wanted to, as you no longer have Download mode. Instead you have redundant 2nd copy of TWRP where LGUP Download mode used to live.

All you can install right now is TWRP- flashable zips or ROMs.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] d3viou5:
Thank you, that's super helpful. I really appreciate your patience.

So just one last question and I think I'm clear........ I'll avoid getting into a debate about the merits of 2 TWRP's vs Download mode.........

If I restore LAF and have a download mode at any point I can flash the 10d firmware and start over.

The flip side, is that I can then only get into TWRP by holding down + power - hold and release power and going through the "factory reset" process to access the recovery, or getting an app that boots directly into TWRP. But the assumption is that the rom is bootable for that to work.

Seems strange that it makes you do a factory rese to the device to access the recovery.

Basically, just don't flash anything over the recovery.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
I never get into TWRP that way. What you are describing is the hardware button dance, which is only for emergencies.

To boot to TWRP initially (first time after installation) you simply use fastboot boot recovery command. You're already connected to the computer.

After that your use the Reboot Recovery app, as STONGLY suggested in the WTF INSTRUCTIONS. Put shortcut on your main screen.

Sent via open market LG US998 V30/V30+
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
See screenshot.View attachment 4751933

Here's the relevant section of TWRP Instructions from WTF, which also works for H932 (the TWRP installation part is universal)

_________

TLDR:

* flash twrp: fastboot flash TWRP.img (TWRP-3.2.3-7-default.img re-named as just "TWRP.img")

* boot twrp: fastboot boot TWRP.img (TWRP-3.2.3-7-default.img re-named as just "TWRP.img")

* swipe to allow modifications (do NOT leave read-only, TWRP NEEDS to be able to make changes to your system.)

* select WIPE, then also FORMAT DATA, then type yes

* wipe cache, dalvik, data

* flash magisk 18.0.

* flash encryption disabler

* flash root disabler

* reboot

STRONG SUGGESTION: After successfully doing all this, when you finally boot back to LG Oreo, install THIS app to easily facilitate rebooting to TWRP recovery in the future:

Recovery Reboot

Also, please make another TWRP backup. ;)
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Yes. Whereas without Download mode, you could NOT flash 10d KDZ and start over. Now you are beginning to understand why I (personally, my opinion) do not advocate giving up Download mode...
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] immns:
If it's H932, there's no way you can access twrp via fastboot. Fastboot just fancy bootloader (un)locker there. Is that all about twrp on laf Vs. twrp on recovery? I know, we can boot up twrp via device reset combination, but then how to access laf's twrp? Does vol up + power works? Let me assume that twrp only managed to handle "customization things" and DL mode laf for "lastest hope". If one twrp can't handle some "recovery" task, so two trwp(s) won't get things better. But download mode certainly does.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
See my comments about the Reboot Recovery app. If you are rooted, it works.

Oh man, my phone does have boot to recovery option, directly on power menu (havocOS). Thanks btw.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] d3viou5:
And this is because LAF has had the fastboot commands removed on the H932? So if I reflash stock LAF I can only have the full set of fastboot commandsin TWRP?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
No, I spazzed and momentarily forgot H932 doesn't have fastboot flash commands. (I'm carrying on three conversations at the same time )

But if you restore your LAF partition, you will have LGUP DOWNLOAD mode back.

I would still download that Recovery Reboot app -- so in case you ever go back to rooted stock firmware you have easy way to reboot to TWRP custom recovery.

Going to bed. No more questions tonight.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] immns:
There's nothing to do with laf or twrp. I have TMobile G6, TMobile V30 all of them doesn't have any fastboot command besides fastboot oem unlock. Whether you 2 twrp(s) ore one, your fastboot will always refuse other command.

If you don't mind, i just want to share. Now, I'm using h932, rocking HavocOS and installed over 20r stock. TWRP is version 3.3.0 (only on recovery not laf I'm unsure if that's related to your bootloop) + magisk v19.1 + Orion Kernel provided in havocOS thread. All working great, one minor bug "OK Google" voice command doesn't work. I don't use no-encryption zip since twrp itselt can decrypt your data so don't bother to update your twrp because as i noted from there "only twrp 3.3.0 could handle pie ROM perfectly".

H932 V30

Hoping for some help...

I unlocked the bootloader and did the exploit to install lineage on my V30.

I didn't like it right away, so I was trying to go back to stock.

Unfortunately, I locked the bootloader before flashing the stock rom, so now all I get is the g.co/ABH warning screen and the phone won't go into download mode.

Any ideas on how to recover, or am I just screwed?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Can't answer your question specifically, but going back to debloated ROOTED stock firmware (keeping TWRP custom recovery and ability to flash Magisk mods) would be preferable relocking bootloader and having no control over your phone. I am still using rooted stock firmware myself.

I don't understand why if you didn't like Lineage, you still didn't want to keep your phone. Instead by relocking bootloader you are giving control of your phone back to carrier/OEM.

You should have flashed this instead:

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Gr8M1ke:
I would have, but this was my first foray into unlocking and using custom ROMS. So, is there a way for me to proceed since the phone won't go into download mode and fastboot only has option to restart or power off?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] TheDannemand:
If you can get to fastboot (which it sounds like) does "fastboot oem unlock" work? That would factory wipe the phone, but more importantly it would relax the security checks during boot that may be your problem.

No guarantees, of course, including no guarantees that it won't make it worse...
