LGUP - LG V20 Questions & Answers

Hello,
Has anyone been able to successfully flash one of these stock firmware .tot files? If so could you please provide a link to the version you used?
As far as I know there isn't currently one available that works with the V20, but I have seen posts claiming to have done so.
-Thanks

Yeah... so if you can only get to fastboot you are screwed. Go to the t-mobile store and get a new one. I had to do that early on and they didn't question me at all.

I did this and now I'm stuck on the logo screen after flashing cf auto root via odin. I can still get back to the download screen so if anyone knows where to get a stock image that would be great. ..lol

Read this forum before trying anything.

I believe you flash the normal GS6 file not the GS6 Edge file but read thru.
Good luck.

LG V20 Device Corrupt Help!

I have a Verizon LG V20 and I need help. Every time I boot my phone, I get this message "Your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted. It may not work properly". How do I get rid of the message for good? I'm not rooted, my LG V20 is stock like it was out the box. Also, I factory reset my LG V20 numerous and nothing. Any help and suggestions would GREATLY be appreciated! Thanks in advanced..

The message can be caused for either you unlocking the bootloader or in very rare situations by an app sticking its nose where it does not need to. If your phone still boots after that message then you are just fine. On the other hand, if it doesnt boot properly, or if you want to trick LG or your carrier into believing you havent root your phone .... Then you are not fine. You can use LG up clean installation the KDZ for your variant and it will remove the message and relocked the OEM (preferably using the refurbish function and not the upgrade. I see that the Verizon's variant does have unmodified KDZ's so.... I think you can do that too.
https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-vs995-firmwares/
You can use LG UP and install one of the KDZ. ( and do not unlock the bootloader unless you want that message to show).
Now, if for X or Y reasons your message is showing for any other reason im not aware off... Then i hope someone else can help you with that

Hmmm... the only way to get red is if you tried dirtysanta... or got malware but if you got malware it wouldnt(or shouldnt...) boot. Best thing you can do is use the verizon kdz and reinstall the whole phone. that will get rid of the triangle.

Thats the only way to restore it. You most likely did do the DC guide... Theres not really any other way you could get that screen. There is no removing it even if you factory reset... Its either the KDZ restore or you live with the screen lol

Is it easy to use KDZ restore? How long would it take?

I uploaded the h910pr :( need help getting back.

So I got stuck in a bootloop and got reading about kdz files and well, I didn't do my home work. I loaded the H910pr. Which has some nice features but I am now stuck. I have no service, lost my way back to my twrp and haven't been able to find a way to root. Any help would be great! The old lady about to kill me, lol.
P.S. Not having a phone isn't so bad
need someone with a 910 to copy their modem for you.

Custom-ish ROM (Possible TWRP/ROOT) for J327T1(?)

I have compiled for you an Odin-Flashable downgrade to original Nougat ROM.
Does NOT have Google FRP in this version (the ROM came stock this way; unmodified), this is useful if you forgot your Google email.
Download Odin3 and the .tar file HERE
- Open Odin v3.12.7
- Plug in phone to PC
- Simply boot into download mode (Powered off- Hold HOME+POWER+VOLUME DOWN)
- Click AP
- Select J327T1.tar
- Click Start
Once it finished it will reboot and update. It is going to get stuck on 32%, do not worry.
It will take a second, but the recovery menu will pop up. Select Reboot System and it will take some time to get to the OS but you will eventually have Nougat pop up and ready to go!
Enjoy!
*UPDATE*
In the download links I have the "Factory Binary" Custom ROM. It's pretty useful in messing with the phone software, although I do not know the specific use. Use the same method above to install the ROM.
Also, I do believe you can edit the .tar and add TWRP by downloading the recovery.img from my link and replacing it in the .tar and following the same steps. I have not tested because I was helping my brother access his phone because he forgot his Google account after he reset his phone.

Well idk if it is considered to be custom. Its still the stock rom. But idk he shoulda tested twrp bc if it works then that would be awesome. But idk the bootloader is locked. If anyone has this device and willing to test please do so. I cannot test since this phone is my primary phone that i use on a daily basis.

I only have a similar device, not the same, but bootloader was already unlocked, all you really need to do is wait for an unknown command screen to stop.

Good ish' Brad, now hopefully someone will get twrp and I'll cough up the money for another cheap t1
Ok so its not truly the factory binary, its an emulator of that, meaning any changes were not flashed over as in other devices. but i have been thinking and, i'll post this in the original as well, magisk....only works if you completely wipe the device first, same with custom roms, i never tried that when i had the j3, bricks be damned we got odin3 and i got scripts to get outta brick an into download.
if someone would be ao kind as to factory reset and tr installing twrp, that wuld be amazing, i have been working with the note 4 sprint variant and there are a few steps in installng custom roms that we were over looking

Only way I can help you is by telling you go buy yourself a PC if you're going to start routing and or developing the firmware on Android devices it is extremely hard nearly impossible these days with Android devices running version Android 6.0 and up to root without a PC the best and easiest way I've found to root a Android device is to First install a custom recovery like TWR p or ClockworkMod and have a unlocked bootloader then from there you can easily download SuperSU and Flash it with a firmware flashing application like ClockworkMod ROM manager that is downloadable on Play Store what I'm trying to say is if you are using kingroot or kingoroot you're going to be hitting that button 4 million years and nothing will happen either by an Android that has a lower version like any version below 5.0 or get yourself a computer and do some research because it is very easy to do the stuff as long as you know what you're doing if you don't it seems way more complicated than it actually is you're in the right place here on XDA to learn everything you need to know so you're off to a great start I hope this helps have a good one good luck
So is there no way we can downgrade further to a firmware that includes the developer option to oem unlock?... I'm about to try and flash what the op posted right now... I'll post results

Need help rooting an LG V20 h91810s?

So I am interested in rooting my LG V20 h91810s. From what I gather I have to roll it back to 10j or i. I have the bootloader unlocked already. But I'm not sure about the rollback. Will a factory reset take it back to 10j or 10i? If not, I haven't been able to find step by step instructions on doing this. I think once I can get it rolled back I should be able to follow https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/instruction-to-root-h918-10i-t3536472 in order to root it. Any help or comments would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.
No can do..... You will make your phone into a paper weight.
So there is no way to root it? I need to root it in order to recover some very important texts. If it can't be rooted does anyone know how I could recover a deleted sms thread?
Thread title changed on OP's request
Thank you very much.
As of right now anything 10p or higher is ARB01. Which means you can't roll back to root. Trying will create a brick. There are people working hard to make it happen but until then it's a waiting game. As for the recovery of SMS hopefully someone can help you. Chances are if you've searched and searched for an answer with no luck, it'll be hard to get that answer here. But you never know. Good luck.
Ah, that sucks. Well tyvm anyway.
We are both on the same boat unfortunately, we'll have to wait patiently.....
Me too waiting to root my h91810s.... hopefully someone will find a method soon.....
Sucks! But I like this phone. It'll be a shame to switch. ?

No I remember I used it to root get the used flashify to flash TWRP.img then flashed magisk and removed kingroot after. If someone with a unlocked boot loader could try it because they had many requests for root

Care to interpret what exactly they did to root? Where to get files and how to? Maybe this can be changed to English format.....
Just wondering if there's a progress thread for the h91810s exploit. I just received mine and it's on the same firmware.
