What about root? Is there a clean root method that doesn't cause a bunch of ****?
Want to try to play shield games, mount and blade for instance.
stock firmware
I've heard the same about our bootloader
but here's the firmware you were asking for:
dubdubdub sammobile dot com slash firmwares slash database slash SM-G935p
(sorry about the lack of link, I'm under 10 posts still)
I have been using the G935U firmware since October. I like to pretend it's the closest I'm going to get to a debloated ROM for this phone.

I'm thinking of getting the edge. I'm not an expert. I have rooted phones but never used abd. Is it hard to use? And with root can you use Hotspot ?

Rooting after a certain version has the issues you described. I think it happened when the BootLoader upgrade happened. Look into the u firmware. Rooting on this device is different and kind of unstable.

to my understanding from other methods that i've seen on here they all say to remove ur sim card so idk might be an option if someone wants to attempt it and if it works I'm down for doing it
I found one with all workarounds for the problems with rooting this phone. Fixes for data cell service, and you can google wifi fix to save your wifi information after reboot. Involves build.prop editor.
@Nickvanexel Normally when folks boast about something important on a popular device, they back it up with either a how-to or links that point them in the right direction. Not only to verify proof but its also common courtesy. I see neither the 2 from you on this post or anywhere else. So tell me...

So, I think I've bricked my LS980. Was rooted runing the stock rom happily when I stupidly accepted a LG UIUU? update. Phone rebooted into TWRP recovery and thats all it will do. Didn't make a backup yet because as I alluded to earlier, I'm stupid. When I power off from TWRP it asks to Install Supersu to gain root yet that does nothing. When I boot into download mode it says rooted on the bottom. I have no idea where to go from here. Is there even an option? I'd love to go back to stock and never mention this again... Any idea? Sorry that I suck

Unfortunately I think you'll probably need to revert to stock, then. Unless something has changed since I had to do this with my vs980, you will lose all data, but the good news is your phone won't be bricked anymore:

Hey cmm67 I don't know if this will help you but I was trying to get my phone back to stock a couple days ago and was having trouble. Mine would stay in download mode at 0% every time until I retried the instructions for the lgflashtool. I was extracting the file into the LG flash tool folder using Zipeg but once I tried 7zip it seemed to work. Once again sorry if this doesn't help at all I'm writing this from memory (hence being so vague about the instructions) and on my phone. Hope you get it fixed!

...I read this post 5 times trying to figure out exactly what you want to do, or even think you can do! Honestly if you don't know anything about rooting then this particular phone will end up as a brick. The bootloader is locked on AT&T S4. No way around it unless you are NOT on MF3 or later... Is your phone actually rooted?? You can't reset the counter anyway.

The recovery that works with Safestrap is TWRP. And depending on which firmware you just flashed it will either be version that is specific for that firmware. Do you have Safestrap installed yet?

It should have booted past that screen before waiting the ten minutes. Can you still get in Safestrap? Sometimes you can have a bad download. Try one of the mirrors for the rom link and download again. Or you can try to wipe and flash it again. I had problems with hyperdrive when i tried using it. (Some roms just don't work on some people's phone). Can you try another rom like. Deadly Venom or Google Play? Seems most people have fewer problems getting those installed.

Your best option, and proven to work would be to just reflash your current firmware or downgrade back to MK2. Then root it easily with Saferoot. Then Safestrap it, which comes with TWRP recovery. Once that is done you can either restore a backup of the rom... if you have one on the SD card. Or download the rom again for the firmware you are on.
That's what I would do, (have done) when that happened. None of which is very hard to do either. So... what firmware are you on?
---------- Post added at 09:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:32 AM ----------
I really wouldn't know how to correctly walk you through with installing Safestrap through ADB because because of the different way it mounts.

I had forgotten that you could not do a permanent root on 5.1.1 and used kingo root on it. Now i'm in deep trouble. My new unlocked (once at&t) tablet is boot looped and it has the custom icon, which means once the seller sees that they will know that I tried to root it if they are techy enough. So I must at least get rid of the custom before I can send it off to them for a replacement. (I might be able to blame it on a kid but I don't know how that will fly) I've tried kies, odin and everything else I can find but haven't be able to fix it. So I was hoping that someone here could advise me. I don't care about the info on it, that's replaceable but I really want to know how to fix my tablet. I can get it into recovery mode and download mode but it's stuck on the at&t logo. Can anyone help me? Thanks

I wound up returning mine to the seller....they accepted my explanation and agreed to RMA it. I wont touch this next one, I learned my lesson. Samsung loves to lock the boot loader, I'm lucky it didn't happen to my old note 4 when kingroot unlocked it. It's a shame we cant find or make a good flashable image for odin. Then it would be safe to play. But I know nothing about android except how to use it.

After you fix it. Root with Kingroot only and you will be fine. Then search for triangle away online, you can get it free. Open that up and click to reset counter. That will remove the custom lock that you are seeing. Every time you reboot, you will lose root, just reroot with Kingroot and you will be fine.

It will be fixed. Just put file in the AP slot in Odin and flash.

So I ran it in Odin in the AP slot. It runs all the way through and succeeds however when it boots up it is still stuck on the ATT logo... is there any settings within Odin I have to change possibly?

Glad to help out. It is safe to root it with Kingroot but after you reboot, root will be lost. Just reroot with Kingroot and you will be rooted again without a problem. Ive been working on a way to maintain root but no luck yet. Just don't replace Kingroot with SuperSU or you will brick it again but at least it can be fixed again if you do brick.
Link please
Link to the firmware for SM-T377A mine is bricked!
Just wanted to ensure everyone here knows that root was achieved for Snapdragon processors. I had nothing to do with this except to root my Note 8 based on the below link.
See thread below for instructions.

What is the possibility of a fix so that we can charge the battery to 100%?

0% without terrible hacks that require the phone be unusable. It's built into the combo/eng bootloader that makes root possible

I see, Thank you for that information. I guess I will wait to see if Xposed Framework is made to work with this device.
My only real draw to rooting is the Per App DPI and a modified hotspot app

They were able to overcome this with the S7, and Keep samsung pay working so I am hopeful they will find a way for the note8.
It might take awhile but it will come. Other than 1 or 2 mods i feel no need to root. But I would like to have the dual speaker mod.
Peace
This setup runs very smooth and fast. System root, no lag. Very resource friendly.
how do you like root so far? I just put the unlocked version would it be worth going to the rooted version?
Rooted then reverted back to stock but now I can't get any of the stock Verizon apps back ie visual voicemail app. Does anybody know how to get these back? I wanna be able to update to Oreo later on without any issues.

I don't have one, I want one though. If all else fails, after rooting I was able to the ADB trick, but I still have to turn off mobile data, turn on hotspot, turn mobile data back on.
I really want to be able to click the hostpot button and have it just turn on.

Did you flash the userdata partition when returning to stock?

Thanks for your reply.
I heard about doing that but didn't know how. I do know that I have the Verizon boot up screen and the 4G LTE logo for the data. It looks like I got HD voice but not for video. I can't even get WiFi calling to activate too.
If you could help me that would be great otherwise I might have to do a warranty replacement which is a last resort that I don't want to do in the first place.

Hi, were you able to flash the userdata partition? I'm not sure how to do this or if I even have the necessary file if needed. I was able to get the UMS button to show with your instruction but now I'm stuck.

Is this under the option tab or UMS button? Do I need another file? Seems like I'm missing something. I'm going to do a search here in the mean time. Btw it seems like I have to use Comsy Odin 3.12 to flash my files without errors.
Thanks for all of your help so far.
Ok looks like I finally was able to get all my Verizon apps back on it. I had to download the N950U firmware which had the USERDATA file that I needed to flash. I'm not sure why there is even a N950U1 firmware to begin with.
I have the August security patch and is still have the U1 baseband. WiFi calling is working but I didn't activate my visual voicemail yet but the app is there though. I didn't activate video calling yet because I would need to setup basic voicemail service first.
Thanks again for all of the help guys.

I'm in the UK and imported the v10 shortly after release which let me down earlier this year by turning off, so I upgraded and imported a v20 which was fine, however I received an update this morning which after running, has left me with no network or reception. I've checked around and the radio is off and there doesn't seem to be a way to turn it back on.
I've tried whichever code it is that gets me into the phone information and then get an error message saying the application isn't installed.
I've read that restoring the phone fixed previous problems for some people, but it's only created more problems for me as despite using LG's useless backup app to backup personal data, settings etc, none of the settings/home screen/passwords or whatever have carried over. I've been kicked out of most of my apps and contacts aren't connecting with others.
Can anyone suggest a way to either roll back to whatever the previous version was, or to get the radio to turn back on so I can use my phone as a phone?
I seriously should've stuck with my G2 which is still working after all these years!
Same here...just updated and no service...trying to get the radio on but to no avail. This code will let you enter the service *#546368#*version number#.
I am on US996 version, what is yours?
US996 as well. I'm talking to someone from LG USA now and they're saying there's no way to fix it unless I send it in, which I can't do.
Wondering if rooting and flashing a new OS will work. I need the security for online banking, but I also need to be able to receive calls.

For real? Send it in back to the states? Why would they release an update that bricks a phone seriously? I was now live chatting with someone from their support and she's like i need to send it on my expense but it still under warranty so i wont pay anything but they ship only back to the US and i live abroad...What a big hassle... Hopefully someone will have a fix.
Did you do a factory reset?
I think I would find a kdz for the last known good firmware and restore back to that.
Factory reset and lost all my settings. I can't get back into half of the apps because they require security confirmation via text or phone call.
Luckily my phone is still under warranty, so I might have to send it. I have a friend who can receive it and send it back to the UK. Cheaper than a new phone.

I did using LGUP...the service is still off...i donno why would they update the phone in order to brake it...Anyone had any luck with this??
Damn.
Well I'm trying to figure out when is best to send it overseas, but I'll be doing that. Using my G2 for the time being.
This really might be it with LG. I haven't liked what they've been doing with their phones since the v10 and there seem to be endless problems with everything since the G2.
No Service after the update
Guys im stuck as well. did everything restored the old firmware using LGUP. and then updated again. still no service. i don/t know what to do. please help.
You can try using TWRP flashing this modem.
Remember to use Dirtysanta to unlock the bootloader, not through the LG Developer Program, so you can save your warranty.

Thanks Anoneko for your great suggestion . I installed that modem image using TWRP and WOOOOOW my network came immediately.
I followed the below thread of installing TWRP before installing the modem image.

Do you lose security stuff? Internet banking, android pay etc?
SAME! I have to force mine by making one FAILED call, then another that connects.

I've read over the information and I'm fairly sure rooting it will lose all the stuff I need.
I'm not fussed about warranty as it runs out in 2 months, but I use android pay /Internet banking daily.
Glad you got it sorted out though.
