Hi..

I've made some easy files to flash in QFIL for sprint owner. This will give you a debloated A11 on your phone. Took me a while, but i finally got deepsleep working.. So I feel like this is worth sharing. I will likely update that guide with the korean android 11 once it's released.

This was tested by Arkadii on TG. (and myself)

What's broken: (using the canadian OP provided, I lightly tested the EU OP, so I can't provide a list for it)

- Vowifi​

- no volte toggle (but it's working..)​

- lg mobile switch​

( I use this one :) )​

Step 0.

Extract All downloaded zip.​

You should have 7 bin files.​

​

Step 1.

Unlock bootloader...​

there's another guide for that on the g8 forum​

​

Step 2.

Disable vbmeta. (Important! Likely needed for other crossflashing roms too)​

- Get in QFIL​

- backup vbmeta and abl​

- Flashback the eng abl from the unlock bootloader guide (from step 1)​

- boot fastboot on your phone and plug it in your pc (note which slot (a or b) you are using right now)​

- Using the backed up vbmeta, open cmd and enter the following command:​

- fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.bin​

- fastboot oem edl​

​

Step 3.

Make a backup of everything you flash on. ​

(use the read option before using the write one lol, don't forget to rename the file before switching to another one)​

Flash the following partitions in QFIL, (using the downloaded files)​

your phone should have already rebooted in EDL with the last command.​

Product, Vendor, System, OP, ABL, Boot, DTBO​

​

Step 4.

Master Reset..​

The same factory reset combo from any other lg phone..​

some user report simply holding vol- + power works for them too...​

​

Step 5.

Setup the device..​

Everything should be working except deep sleep.​

​

Step 6.

Fixing deep sleep....

Boot in EDL again and flash the following modem in QFIL:​

(extract the zip before)​

​

Step 7.

Reboot the phone.​

Go in network tab..​

Switch the network mode to "GSM / WCDMA / LTE auto" ...​

This one works for me.. you might have to put airplane mode or go in the *#*#4636#*#* and try different preferred network type.. (5g will never work on this phone....)​

Step 8.

Enjoy!​

For other people enjoying early access to other A11 roms, or even Nemo's rom! The modem from step 6 should work fine with them (and will solve deepsleep issue). If you are a rom maker, please refer to this thread when adding the modem to your rom :)

Have a nice day.
