Slow Down Guys

I think a few of us are getting too carried away with root lol. I, myself, sure had to catch myself. Don't forget that most of us do not have a custom recovery which means if you brick your device, you'll probably have to pm the devs and if a lot of that happens, they'll end up with an even bigger inbox than before root lol but my main reason for the thread is that everybody is speaking on unlocking the bootloader but I haven't heard one word on a bump'd recovery like on the G3? Is that even possible on this phone? By the way, would it be risky if I tried the universal init.d app? Kinda wanna try L Speed on this.

We can get custom stock roms if any dev wants to do it. We just flash the img file.

We have custom recovery TWRP works just fine and I'm already running a debloated ROM, I guess I don't understand your issue.

TWRP is only working on a very small number of devices.

Lol who's being a "donkey"?

Only the 815EU and 811 have unlocked bootloaders hence TWRP the rest of the g4 community does not have this benefit... On the subject of bumped, pretty sure that exploit used has been closed by LG...if you guys thought root took long the wait for another BL exploit likely will be much longer. I hope I'm wrong but I can't see another one being found for a while. Seems this time around LG really wants to lock every avenue down. The next coming soon firmware update will patch the current root backdoor, also the root that vnmobile discovered seems to be patched as well, although he hasn't released any details, it could very well be the same backdoor.

Problem when updating to Official Lollipop

Hello everybody, I don't know what to do, I'm trying to update to Lollipop (I'm comming from Stock android ROM on my device), the phone do the necesary stuff and when it reboots it stays the same, no lollipop installed, no error message either. The phone is exactly the same as before. What could be the problem?

Yes, it is on KK.

How are you updating? Are you using OTA(a notification that tells you that there is an update available)? Or are you flashing factory images via fastboot?

Is your bootloader unlocked? If so have you rooted or installed a custom recovery?

I would flash stock 4.4.4 system partition image in fastboot and give the ota another go.

Anybody can upload the zip for it?

Can you flash OTA 2.2.0 zip inside TWRP blue_spark recovery, or do you need stock recovery ?

No duh Sherlock .

I keep refreshing the Nexus factory image page to see when the time stamp changes.... I don't have patience to wait for an OTA lol. It's just a really likely rumor that it will be released today though. Not a whole lot based on actual facts.

www.android.com According to this website it's already here. Now we just have to wait for factory images.

If one manually flashes the factory image, will that process properly repartition the drive so that it'll be able to take advantage of Seamless Updates?

No. That won't happen however you do it; I believe seamless updates will only work with new devices designed specifically to make use of it.

Can you upload the OTA or something?

FYI, you have to be running Preview N and enrolled in the link below to get the update. I enrolled my device and the update came in instantly.

thx man that did the trick got it too

Rooted unable to flash stock or accept OTA

A little background: I rooted my phone right when I got it over 6 months ago and that was it, no Roms or anything special, everything was left stock after root. Bootloader is still unlocked.
For the life of me, probably because its been so long since I've done it, I can't figure out how to get updates again now that I'm trying to get all the latest security patches and update to Nougat and that's all I want to do.
Anyone link me to a thread or explain what I need to do to be able to flash the latest factory update and update Android? I've tried flashing images in TWRP and it gives me this error:

You can't install OTAs normally with a rooted device. You'd have to install a full OTA via ADB side load. Otherwise, you need to fastboot flash factory images. Or, return your device to stock first.

You can't flash android 7 google factory image through TWRP
You have to either use fastboot commands or use adb with flash-all.bat but that will result in losing all your data.
Just get OTA from MM to Nougat and you'll be just fine.

Got it. So just find a 'getting back to stock' thread and follow it will fix my issue?
