[Solved] Unbricking: can't flash stock & can't get into recovery

[Solved] Unbricking: can't flash stock & can't get into recovery - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

EDIT:
Solved by flashing .tot from a Windows that is NOT a Virtual Machine.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I need some help. I bricked my phone but this time I am unable to unbrick it.
I recently got a new F320L. I flashed it with CloudyG2 3.3 and it was working fine for a day, but I decided I don’t like lollipop so I wanted to downgrade to CloudyG2 2.2 KitKat.
Here’s what I did:
1.Installed and run AutoRec f320L apk. I figured that since this is KitKat recovery installer, it will downgrade the bootstack. By omission, I did not flash KitKat baseband linked the Cloudy 2.2 installation guide (which might be the cause of all this).
2.Rebooted into TWRP recovery, wiped System, Cache, Dalvik, Data.
3.Installed Cloudy 2.2
4.Rebooted.
Now, the phone gets stuck on the LG logo and does not go past it even when I leave it for an hour.
What I tried to do:
1.Return to stock with KDZ method (tried both KitKat and L KDZ files).
Result: Error at the beginning of flashing telling me to unplug the phone and plug it back again.
2.Return to stock with .TOT method.
Result: Error at the beginning of flashing.
Code:
[10:52: 1] CrossDL [] to [F320L]. SWversion[][10:52: 1] ¡Ú¡Ú ERROR REASON : LAF_ERROR_INVALID_INPUT_FILE

[10:52: 1] [10:52: 1] CrossDL [] to [F320L]. SWversion[]
[10:52: 1] DoDownload() Exception
For some reason my phone lost its model name...?
2b. Hex-editing .tot file to replace “F320L” with zeros to get around the above error (but I don’t know if it would help at all with flashing higher stock roms because it would probably not restore the model name if I blanked it, would it?).
Result: at 6% process stops and I get this error:

Special notes:
My phone does not enter into Recovery mode when pressing Power+Vol Down, releasing on LG logo and pressing them again. It Never DID! I tried many times, when the phone was working fine on KitKat, JB and L stock roms, or on CloudyG2 3.3. And it doesn't work now.
This button combination never did anything. The phone powers on, the LG logo shows up, I release the buttons and press them again, the LG logo keeps showing up for some more seconds and the phone shutdown due to prolonged pressing of Power button.
So as far as I can tell, Download mode is all I have at the moment.
Is there anything left to try?

Easily Moddable HDMI Capture box

This looks like one of the most easily moddable/hackable boxes I have ever seen. It is sold by a UK company Maplin and is called a "Maplin Game Capture HD" .
(Sorry in order to get through the new user limitation on posting links I have had to horribly mangle my links)
world wide web dot maplin dot co dot uk /p/maplin-game-capture-hd-a84qu
It is a (cheap) HDMI capture box up to 1080p that has three modes capture to SD card, stream to network and capture to PC via USB. For game play, but can capture any HDMI input (non-HDCP).
The reason it's potentially easily moddable is that a telnet to port 23 in network mode gives you a root shell on it straight away. With a fully writeable root file system.
So far I have used this to start an FTP daemon that lets me FTP files straight from the SD Card though the NIC is a bit slow. Stole the command from their /plbin/start_ftpd.sh file and run "tcpsvd -vE 0.0.0.0 21 ftpd -w /".
There is a also a web interface for debug, that can be started with cd /plbin; ./test_web.sh. I may have had to set the WEBPAGE_LANGUAGE to "en" in nvram, to allow it to start. "/bin/plnvram wr WEBPAGE_LANGUAGE en"
The admin password for the web interface is just blank.
Very interestingly, if you use their app to display the streamed content from this device it allows you to see HDCP content, just not record it. I have so far had no need to look into this.
Lots of other functionality looks just commented out in the configs.
The web interface tells me this device is actually a SIGMA-PL330B,
world wide web marketwired dot com /press-release/sigma-designs-introduces-new-hd-video-encoder-technology-1518168.htm
And may well be the same (or a repackaged) version of this box
world wide web dot maxmediatek dot com pd-page/MM_V.htm
HS602 as they seem to use the same app to display the stream.

Did you come across anything that allowed you to record using software other than VivaStation?

I didn't but I haven't looked to hard, as recording to SD card was all I needed.

Hi - I've been looking for a way to start the streaming on this box by command line when logged into the box via telnet, but no real luck.

I bought this from Maplin, but had to return the first one for a refund as I could not get the software to install on W10 (even with .net 3.5 installed), just kept throwing an error in Chinese! After looking online for replacements that do the same thing, costing between £80-250 (even the used ones, granted they do proper 1080 over Ethernet), I decided in the end to buy the box again, but from ebay...
This time I did manage to get the ShareView software installed on another machine after I spent a day installing windows 7 on it (it's an old machine + 235 updates!)..
Anyway, the commands the shareview software sends (via telnet) to get it to stream over ethernet seem quite straightforward..
First it "uploads" a config file with the contents..

to /plbin/hs_enc_ts.cfg
And then launches the following command, three times, not sure why but it does., because when I run it, it only needs to be ran once..
Code:
/plbin/plstrm enc config /plbin/hs_enc_ts.cfg oudp <IP ADDRESS> oport 8085 reduceprintf nouserinput
That's all I know for now, will update if I find anything new to report =D

Hi mpmc - I think it does more than just uploads that file and runs the plstrm executable. Somehow it also passes the stream settings too. I feel I am getting somewhere, but still not able to kick off the streaming via the command line.

Sorry for such a late reply.
I'm guessing by stream settings you mean the settings that upload to places like youtube? If so, I'm not sure myself as I don't need it for that function, but I will have a go & see if I can figure it out, but hopefully somebody has already worked it out by now.

Sorry for necroposting, but this thread hid me right on the spot. I got this box (in the form of Startech's overpriced variant), mainly for its standalone streaming to RTMP, but also as it has SD recording and HDMI capture (which I needed exactly, and nothing else).
The 720P streaming is horrible - bad codec settings (bitrates and gop probably), which means that 720P looks like 320x240 upscaled. So I opened the box to find a board number, so maybe some hack would pop up.. But telnet? - This is golden
Before I start reverse engineering (I don't really have any experience with telnet or *nix based stuff), maybe someone here worked out the details and would like to share?
TLDR. How do I set up the streaming codec settings via telnet and make them stick?

Glad I'm not the only one still playing with this box.
I did have a go at working out the protocol used between the box and the software, I got as far as understanding how they find each other. The software makes a UDP broadcast to 255.255.255.255 on port 8086 with the message "HS602". The box then sends a UDP message ("YES") back, direct to the caller on the same port. The box then opens tcp port 8087 to which the software connects & they converse..
Sample of their conversation goes like this..
Client to box..

I have no clue as to what this is! Hopefully you'll have better luck trying to decode it!

What I found so far, is that when I set up FTP the way OP posted, I can access the whole file system. I have copied it all, and am trying to find where the stream settings are stored. The mentioned cfg file does not exist though. If that works, I'll just make some custom app, that will telnet to open ftp, and upload my settings every time. However I am currently trying to just work out the basics of telnet controlling a linux system. None of the tutorials online help at all, but I found, that I can execute commands that are compiled packages in the operating folder. So far that helped for nothing I found a qzip thing in it, so maybe I will image the filesystem a little more properly than over ftp.
How could I listen the telnet communication between ShareView and the HS602? Btw - both of your pasted pieces are the same - intentional or mistake?
It also seems, that there is a whole settings web interface in plbin\www\, but I don't yet understand how to set up the webserver.

After finally launching the webserver I found that the website is some sample design and while it saves it's settings, they have no relation to the operation of the device. Going back to searching where ShareView puts it's settings and how to change them.

The stream settings aren't stored anywhere as far as I can tell, it gets sent to the running plkw binary, which appears to be the "server" for the software. This is what handles the upload to the receiving rtmp server, receiving of the encoder config, etc.
I used Wireshark to intercept the chatter between the software & the box. Yes, I know they're the same, I'm assuming it's just an echo.
I'd actually bricked mine by disabling the auto.sh scripts & ended up with no network. Thankfully mine has serial/uart pins populated & I was able to reverse the changes! Took me a while to figure the pinout (no meter) and why some chars weren't registering (needs parity set to EVEN).
Code:
Pinout starting from back of the SD card slot (Look underneath for the square pin).
[ 1 ][ 2 ][ 3 ][ 4 ]
1 = VCC (5v) - If not powered by usb it'll crash if ethernet is connected shortly after boot.
2 = TX
3 = RX
4 = GND
Will update if I find anything else out.

The thing is that it does work as the manual says - set it up, and then it can be used standalone, even after a reboot. Some kind of settings seem to be in the binaries plkw, plstrm and quite a few others, stored in plain text (echo texts maybe?)

Good to know. I thought that looked like some JTAG.. Did you go via telnet there as well?

Could you elaborate on how did you find what file and what command it sends over telnet? (The ones mentioned in #6)

By killing the already running plkw process on the box & running it again, you get to see what it outputs when they talk. That output is from wireshark.

Yes, it appears that I was wrong, it does in fact store them, it writes them to memory (I'm guessing to the nvram block (see cat /proc/mtd)). I only found this out after watching the plkw binary via serial & by chance running "plnvram list" which makes the running plkw (not plnvram) print out it's current config.
The values set are
Code:
rd = read
/bin # plnvram rd username
username = http://foo.com
/bin # plnvram rd password
password = ONETWO

I'm not sure what you mean via telnet. you connect the pins to your ttl/uart serial converter (I used this one) & which drops into sh on tty0.

To be fair, I actually don't really understand what you did here exactly. I don't have an uart usb adapter handy to try. But it brought me some (a lot actually) random pieces of understanding
I am unable to make it list out plnvram contents, only rd exact variables. I found a lot of those in plnvram_default.dat, but those appear to be useless. They are the values stored by the web interface and have nothing to do with ShareView settings, or how the box encodes the stream when its button is pressed. What I really want to find, is what variable names are used for ShareView settings (other than password, username, which are the places I can put RTMP link into).
ShareView has two dropboxes "Outputsize" and "bitrate", which I assume generates a quite few lines to plnvram that include exact encoding settings. Could you by any chance find where those fall into?

As I already said , the plkw binary handles communicating with the software & this is what sets everything up, streamurl, streamkey etc, it is also what does the streaming when triggered by the button or software, unfortunately I've yet to figure out how it actually triggers! When the software connects it sends the encode config (creates the hs_enc_ts.cfg file and client.cfg in /plbin). The plkw then launches the plstrm binary three times (no idea why as one is enough from what I've found).
The outputsize & bitrate are set in the hs_enc_ts.cfg.

I've attached a screenshot of how I got the plnvram config to output (COM8 = serial connection).
---
I've also managed to build a test "hello world" binary & have it run on the box, so I might be able to build a better rtmp server. I may have to rely on the plstrm to get the output though :/

Some good news.. I think. I managed to "decompile" the android "Shareview" app source code using javadecompilers.com With any luck I should be able to figure it out!
If you're any good with java (I'm not) download the shareview apk from here: https://apkpure.com/shareview/com.asdfghjkl20203.hs602player/download?from=details.
And upload it to http://www.javadecompilers.com/.

I'm also not, but I have a friend who does have some experience. Thanks for the idea.
The variable name thing threw me off, since it makes no sense to me, that it stores "password" and "username" straight to nvram, and the rest go through hs_enc_ts.cfg. I tried to manually change hs_enc_ts.cfg parameters, but they had no effect to the output stream, which is why I assumed, that it sends some other settings.
Could you save the whole putty printout somewhere? It does contain different parameters and variables than those in hs_enc_ts.cfg and plnvram_defaults.dat

[Qualcomm] Subsystem Interface Control

I'm looking for any information on the DMSS subsystem commands. I have a list of subsystem ids but none of the commands that correspond. My goal is to figure out how the Wireless Messaging Service (WMS) subsystem works. DCN 80-V1294-6 contains the information on building the payload packet but I can't find it anywhere. QXDM doesn't have any SMS controls as far as I know, so I can't spy on its communications. If anyone knows how to construct the proper packet request, I'd be very grateful.
Thanks

Doing some testing with the information I have, came up with the following responses. I spied on the Call Manager subsystem command and figured the structure would be similar to the rest of the subsystem payload markup.
STRUCTURE
Code:
4b 0e 01 ZEROED BUFFER df 80 7e
4b is DM command for subsystem
0e is subsystem id for Wireless Messaging System
Next is a sequence of 1 - 8 that I've sent. Anything after 8 results in response code of 13 which is an invalid command.
Zeroed buffer length of 258
The usual CRC high low
7e terminator
RESPONSES
Code:
4b 0e 01 00 bf 23 7e
4b 0e 02 00 d7 09 7e
4b 0e 03 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 74 44 7e
4b 0e 04 00 00 00 00 00 63 d7 7e
4b 0e 05 00 df 44 7e
4b 0e 06 00 00 00 00 00 35df7e
4b 0e 07 00 6f 77 7e
4b 0e 08 00 a7 f4 7e
Looks like subsys commands of 3, 4, and 6 are interesting. Need to figure out what else to pass in the payload.

Quick question --> How did you spy on the Call Manager?

Root method (Brainstorm)

Hey everyone. This is not tested but I would like input. On the LG G3, I could flash partitions in fastboot mode which allowed me to change the device from an AS990 to a US990 or LS990. Would it be possible to flash the H918/H830 bin files through the patched LGUP partition DL to change the device type? Again just a brainstorm thread. Please post below.

What could we gain from changing the device type? (Some have incompatible hardware if i'm right)
Also Aren't partitions checked by the bootloader( or kernel i dunno much) for any modification?

I'm not sure about the hardware but I think the RS998 might be close enough that a custom Rom would run

I'm interested in this. I have a us992 and it's the same hardware than rs998 but I can't root or unlock bootloader. It could be cool if there's a way to change it...

By attaching a debugger to LGUP I found a couple of new commands
INFOSPRO is called 4 times which by reading is setting some sort of properties
SIGN
SIGN is called twice before anything begins to work such as the OPEN or WRTE command and the response should be something like success cmd SIGN
I think this is the missing link as after this all commands are given with 2 kilocent commands then 2 kilometr commands in that order so possibly the SIGN command is important but also the fact that the kilocent command is given twice then the 2 kilometr responses are sent but that's just speculation. Let me know what you guys think
also two other commands that were found are
OPCMCHEK
MISCWRTE
EDIT: I think CHCKCLER is our missing link. Disclaimer I am on the LG G5 but it has the same issue. Also the INFOSPRO may also need to be set [/B]

It's nice that you're looking into this, there is another guy in the V20 section, @runningnak3d who is also looking into making partition dl work.
BUT.... don't try to flash T-Mobile bootloader on any other variant phone. You will hard brick. T-Mobile uses a different key to sign it's files, and that key is programmed into the read-only-memory of a TMO phone.
Edit: Besides, he is looking into a different way of unlocking, by flashing a modified persistent partition with LGUP I believe.

Don't worry I'm not an idiot I did my research like the thread says Brainstorm. Sometimes crazy ideas lead people to start thinking. Which reminds me.... Ooo look Squirrel. Be sure to post your ha's when you read that. Anyways in all seriousness checking with the other persons and who knows possibly sometime may have a solution.

I see. So you where offended, and you're subtly calling me an idiot.
You must be a proud person.
And you couldn't have "done your research" at the time of posting, as why then would you ask about flashing TMO bootloader on a non-TMO device?
Would it be possible to flash the H918/H830 bin files through the patched LGUP partition DL to change the device type?

Also your reply reeks of utter nonsense.

Seriously man no harm intended and as for utter nonsense yes,yes it was.....partially. Also, like how you quoted me saying bootloader... wait you didn't. Missed that somewhere. Not necessarily pointing to that you could flash a system partition that was already rooted or something like that again emphasizing brainstorm thread here.

Well how else would you change your "device type"?
Maybe I don't understand what you mean by that. I may have jumped to wrong conclusion, if so then I guess you where right to be slightly offended.
Anyway, persistent.bin seems to be where it's at. You should work with @runningnak3d he was looking earlier for some help.

VS995 - Error using Uppercut - Cannot decide device boot mode. set Unknown Mode

I recently acquired a Verizon-branded LG V20 (VS995) and I my eventual goal is to put TWRP and LineageOS on it like my last phone. The first step is to downgrade it to a vulnerable stock image using UPPERCUT. However, I'm finding that LGUP is unable to begin to perform the flash.
My setup/procedure is as such:
1. Fresh Windows 7 x64 installation in Virtualbox 5.2.16 on Arch Linux
1a. USB filter setup so that USB 1004:633a is always passed through to Windows 7
2. Installed drivers: LGMobileDriver_WHQL_Ver_4.2.0.exe
3. Installed LGUP 1.14: LGUP_Store_Frame_Ver_1_14_3.msi
4. Insert battery into LG V20 VS995
5. Insert USB into computer
6. Hold VOLUP while inserting USB-C into V20
7. Wait as "download mode" message appears and then changes to "Firmware Update" screen.
8. Wait for Windows to install all drivers, ensuring devmgmt.msc shows COM port
9. Launch UPPERCUT v1.0.0.0, granting admin permissions
10. Wait for LGUP to launch, initialize, and show a VS9951CA device
11. Select the December 2016 KDZ: VS99512A_06_1114_ARB00.kdz
12. Select UPGRADE and hit Start
After waiting for the 15 second initialization period, LGUP displays the error "Cannot decide device boot mode. set Unknown". If left in this state for several minutes, LGUP will eventually bring up a dialog saying "Error: 0x2000, Port open error (COMX)". LGUP sometimes says it is on a step which I have not transcribed correctly but resembles "_prepareAndDL" before showing the "Cannot decide device boot mode. set Unknown" error, but I've only seen this step once or twice.
SHA1 sums of the files I'm using:
eac54e3e0cfe6e8d7cd395e245170e13de4fcd67 lgmobiledriver_whql_ver_4.2.0.exe
f7b41f77047698bc8e030dddf4ef6fbdb5c3af41 lgup_store_frame_ver_1_14_3.msi
46c9a349d62287d81c94ce7148233c0922604273 uppercut_1.0.0.0.zip
3104b93b7243e3274932b2c56b8383cdecf7ede3 vs99512a_06_1114_arb00.kdz
Is UPPERCUT still the recommended tool to flash stock firmware for this model? Should I be installing it via fastboot instead (if so, is there a thread to follow)? Is the 1CA update no longer downgradable?
--------------------
I tried to use the patched LGUP tool instead of UPPERCUT to see if that helped at all. I did not try to flash the KDZ, but rather just tried to DUMP the existing partitions. I ran into the same error as the post title again.
Procedure:
0. In the LGUP program files directory:
1. Copy the original LGUP.exe to LGUP.original.exe
2. Copy the patched LGUP.exe into it's place
3. Copy in the 'model/common' directory from the patched LGUP zip
4. Steps 4->8 from above
9. Launch patched LGUP (no UPPERCUT)
10. Same as above
11. Select DUMP, hit start, select dump location

I captured a trace of the USB communication with wireshark. I used the LG LAF protocol plugin (can't post links yet: github com/Lekensteyn/lglaf/blob/master/lglaf.lua) and it didn't find any USB frames that matched the protocol. I'm no USB wire protocol expert, but it looks like the phone is sending a response:

There were five such frames, all essentially identical less a byte or two. I suspect if I had let the capture go they would have continued to arrive at an interval. So it's possible the LGUP tool just is not recognizing the ping that the phone is sending?

Install the VirtualBox extension pack and set your USB config for that VM to 2.0 or 3.1, and you should be good.
1CA is definitely downgradable. This is a USB communication problem.
-- Brian

I re-confirmed that I had the guest extensions installed (VM has no nic and all files were transferred in via shared folders, which requires guest extensions). But it turns out I did have the USB bus set to USB 2.0. After setting that to USB 3.0 and installing the Intel USB3 drivers for Windows, LGUP started the download without issue. This is still the patched LGUP (no UPPERCUT) and using the UPGRADE option with the KDZ mentioned in the OP. Oddly enough, it did not clear my data, as it asked for my encryption passphrase when it rebooted. It did successfully downgrade me, so I just did a factory reset to clear my old data and apps. As a reminder, the LG out-of-the-box experience starts checking for OTA updates as soon as the phone starts up, so remove your SIM before you start.
1. Remove SIM
2. Do one of the following:
CLI:
Code:
vboxmanage modifyvm $vmname --usbehci off && vboxmanage modifyvm $vmname --usbxhci on
UI: Right click VM > Settings > USB > USB 3.0 (XHCI) Controller
