I just installed the 2.8 Twrp D2vzw.tar on my Verizon GS3. I use Odin for Twrp, best way to me and I was told Goo manager n the like are no bueno. I had a problem with it, but it worked. It didn't funk up my phone that is. The .tar is on the Twrp website. Good luck

Hi. This is an LG G3 forum, not samsung. LG does not uses ODIN to flash. And, at the moment, without a unlocked BL is impossible to flash a full recovery. The TWRP team has not released any version for G3.
Regards

Done

So no working twrp recovery for g3 yet?

NoCrAppleHere said:
That's nice. Couldn't care less, you punk. I thought it said GS3 general discussion and the fact the person I quoted said "idk if I'm posting in the right place" threw me off too. I made a mistake. SHOOT ME. Some people need to GET A LIFE. All you had to say is "the guy you quoted was asking about the G3 not GS3. Lol. Fyi " LOOK AT THAT, HOW HARD WOULD THAT HAVE BEEN? SMFH. I'll remove my post, and you GFYS!

Anyone can make a mistake. I advise you to calm down. If you read again, I've explained the solution to the op.
Until the lg g3 doesn't gets the bootloader unlocked we will not have a custom recovery 100% functional.

I have a functioning version of TWRP on my tmobile g3 but that doesn't mean a newer version can not be ported to the g3.if that were true I wouldn't have TWRP on my phone right now. I'm guessing you're one of the unlucky g3 owners on one of the three locked networks?

You have this version http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/recovery-twrp-2-7-1-3-t2831668 right?
Then this is not a flashable custom recovery. I have a D855 with unlocked network from factory and the bootloader is locked. As far I know, all versions of the LG g3 have locked bl. Doesn't matters the network. Or I'm wrong, in this case please help me because I need it to make backups and restore.
Please, can you explain how to flash? Not from adb. From flashtool. I cannot find any way to flash a FULL custom recovery. At the moment, the only recovery we have is a tethered recovery. Hopefully this will change soon...
Anyway, as you can see in teamwin official web site there is not any version for our g3 (any variants).

This will only work for the T-Mobile G3 with the unlocked boot loader. If you do not have the T-mobile Version DO NOT try this.
There is a fix for the mini screen you are talking about. You need to update TWRP to a newer version, which can be found here
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/d851 titled "openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.3-d851.img"
Once the file is download, transfer the file to your phone.
1. Download Flashify from Playstore
2. Open Flashify and click on Recovery Image
3. A popup will come up, click Choose a file
4. Locate the file on your phone titled "openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.3-d851.img"
5. Click on the file and a pop up will appear, click "Yup"
6. Boot to recovery to make sure everything went well
There is also another method to flash recovery(using ADB), but this is the easiest. If you are having any trouble let me know

That is not the recovery he is talking about. It seems he has the Tmobile G3, which is the only model that comes shipped with an unlocked bootloader. There is no way at this moment to unlock the bootloader on the other network providers.

Yes, Tmobile is the only one with the bootloader unlocked at the moment. LG did state that they are planning to offer an option to unlock the bootloader in the future, but so far nothing on that.

How can I root or at least get Lineage OS with Nougat?

I have nougat already and was expecting for a easier way to unlock bootloader than in Marshmallow so I waited for it. Now with Nougat I see it very impossible to root or get Lineage. So can someone please do a guide for my problem please?

Lots of guides already.

It's the same process. Downgrade bootloader to unlockable version, unlock, flash TWRP, flash ROM, flash Gapps. Pays to read and search player.

I agree readling through all these threads its mass confusion. Some say it works with nougat some say it bricks there devices. Is there a simple one click root like wugfresh has with the nexus devices

Many guides explains very well. If you are unsure about what you are going to do with your device then my advice is that you stay on stockrom until you understand and know what you are up to.

Oh okay, let's just assume that you know what EDL mode, DFU mode, and FTM mode are. And that you know what happens if you get a DFU brick, what is the solution... Read a bunch of guides and help threads before doing anything, especially if this is your only phone or if you can't use the warranty

To be fair, there isn't a guide for using MiFlash to downgrade the device from Nougat to MM.
I'd suggest you look for the MiFlash download link in the Download Center sticky and then download the necessary MM ROM for your device.
From then on you can just follow a guide to unlock the bootloader using axon7tool and install twrp etc.

Very nice, but I think his problem is that he needs to downgrade to Marshmallow before he even attempts to unlock the bootloader.
I'm an A2017G user, not a 2017/2017U user, so it might be slightly different for you guys (didn't think it was?), but I believe that you can't unlock the bootloader if your device is already on Nougat, it must be downgraded first.

Yes you do need to downgrade, there's a toolkit that does everything for you and I believe it was mentioned a few times in this thread.

If you can boot to the bootloader, you need to flash the firmware with adb/fastboot. If you can't boot to the bootloader, you may have a brick.

Isn't the "Retail" version the one on the unlocked E4's?

The retail unlocked model is XT1768. Unless someone knows otherwise, I think there are really only two US versions (well and the Verizon bootloader version) - one with a fingerprint reader and one without. I would go ahead and try the retail firmware, but maybe only flash the system partition to be safe.

How To Root easily without any kind of Tools and installing OTAs - beginner's Guide.

Hello,
my aim here is to sort out things easily for beginner's, hence I made a detailed video on How To Root and Unlock Bootloader using TWRP and Magisk with the help of ADB drivers and Magisk. :laugh:
which is,
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flash recovery xxx.img
flash the TWRP and Magisk, you have a rooted device.
I have made a detailed Video, check it out,
Links are provided in the description and I will be updating it.
TWRP Credits to @eng.stk
Magisk Credits to @topjohnwu
while updating your ROM,
Flash the FULL ROM ZIP
Wipe Dalvik Cache and Cache
Flash Masgik
to be on the safer side, reboot.
backup stock kernel
flash the custom kernel
you will continue to get the OTAs but in FULL ZIPs, not in Incremental Updates.
ROMs are updated here - https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...-5t-mirrors-official-oxygen-os-t3708099/page5

Nice video. Perhaps the phone portions could zoom in a little more, but you mention in the video links but I didn't see them. It would be helpful in your first post to have the links to adb/fb, recommended twrp, and magisk. That will save N00b from hunting around for the drivers and packages. Also when I make videos I tend to stay away from version numbers because they are always changing, that is why it's easier to update in the post, unless you expect to keep updating the video. HTH

As far as I know, the ta 1025 is basically the same as ta 1021. The recovery is in the [RECOVERY] TWRP 3.2 (and a sneak peak...) Thread here in the forums.

Well its a long process I used a post called convert global to Chinese ROM nokia 6 and I followed the instructions.then I proceeded to buy a bootloader unlock key and did the note you must click on edit phone information in OST before attempting the unlock as it needs the service permissions then just use fastboot with latest adb platform tools .i used the dm-verity commands to allow partition flashing and the critical commands for bootloader flashing and I flashed the unlock bin file.Im using the Chinese ROM as it has more features and NFC you'd have to sideload the play store but it works.also wouldn't hurt to check the forums for the other commands.the official recovery on twrp.me works flawlessly.also make sure you battery is at the least 50% charged anything below 15%charge ost will refuse to flash

Well its a long process I used a post called convert global to Chinese ROM nokia 6 and I followed the instructions.then I proceeded to buy a bootloader unlock key and did the note you must click on edit phone information in OST before attempting the unlock as it needs the service permissions then just use fastboot with latest adb platform tools .i used the dm-verity commands to allow partition flashing and the critical commands for bootloader flashing and I flashed the unlock bin file.Im using the Chinese ROM as it has more features and NFC you'd have to sideload the play store but it works.also wouldn't hurt to check the forums for the other commands.the official recovery on twrp.me works flawlessly.also make sure you battery is at the least 50% charged anything below 15%charge ost will refuse to flash

*mods im not promoting this site for bootloader unlocking it worked for me so id figured ill help some people out please don't rape me..
In the mean time when the firmware is flashed update it decided taking risk at this for fun.also I can't live without my magisk modules.so anyone that sees this post follow it.it should work. I assume it should work on other Nokia 6 variants as well.
