Just plugged the Gpad in to charge and this popped up. Hoping it's 5.0.
It's just sitting on 0% for the longest time.
I will update the status when I have something to report.

Updated on post:
Nothing. False alarm. I don't know how or why my tablet ended up on the update recovery screen because it was already powered on when I plugged it in, but no update.
That mode is only to update via lgflashtools....
My cousin's v410 is dead and I plugged it in to a USB wall charger. Some conductive trash must have been in the plug, I guess, because it rebooted to firmware update mode on me, instantly and from any state. If you see this mode unplug your tablet, hold down power to restart, and try a different cord or blow/clean the trash out of the plug.
Update to Lollipop lg G pad 7.0 lte v410 AT&T if you got a root issue
I had rooted my lg G pad and could not update to lollipop update this is how I got it to work. I removed the SD card and Sim card then I unrooted the tablet and restarted it. I also performed a hard reset from the settings menu. Make sure you unselected the data backup and automatic restore before resetting, now reset tablet. When it restarts just log into the WiFi and nothing else. Now go to settings and go to update center to find the firmware update download it and install it.

I'm too waiting for the same update, did you get any new link for that, mine is on 4.4.2 v41010d
No the update I got it through the settings menu on the tablet go to about tablet and then to check for updates that's how I got it.
Does anyone have any KDZ files?
I had a corrupted Stock ROM on a G Tab 7 Tablet due to applications that were installed by the previous owner; no matter what I did, Addware apps would always install on there own; I mean, even after restoring factory settings via the settings, or via the hardware combinations keys to reset to factory settings, It would reset the device but it would still install all the annoying apps as if they were Factory installed; weird, I had never seen something like this in any device I've worked on.
Anyways, since Factory Reset wouldn't help I had to Flash the Tablet.
I found the V41007h_0.kdz file which I was able to flash using the the LG Flash tool.
But now there is a a watermark in red "userdebug 4.20.17(42001700)" in the Home Screen.
So I'm hoping at the very least I can find a KDZ file to go back to the firmware version that the Tablet had which was V41010d.
Does anyone have any links to point me in the right direction?
If you can't post it in public, please Private message the links.
Thanks in advance for your help.

You've flashed a KDZ that contained a test build. If you follow the steps in my thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-pad-10/general/tutorial-lg-gpad-v410-5-1-to-4-4-t3232150 then you can recover the lost space of your internal SD card and run custom ROMs. Unfortunately I don't think there is currently a way to go back to stock 5.0.2 from this point. If there is, it has not been documented in this form (to my knowledge).
Please post in my thread if you need help with that process.

I could not get it through SIM card because i don't have an AT&T SIM neither i live in the US nor AT&T has any services nearby, so i definitely need a zip file that might be an OTA or something that can be installed via ADB or system recovery. please share somethings for me.

I was trying to update my GPad 7.0 to 5.0.2 or 5.1.0 from 4.4.2 and no OTA updates no matter what I do.
I'm on Android 4.4.2 with software version v41010d. Hardware says LG-V410 in "about tablet" section.
What's the quickest easiest way. I'm concerned that this is an older tablet and isn't updateable or has some update problems so that is the reason for my question. Maybe I'll keep it on 4.4.2 but wanted to run latest Kodi which won't work with anything but 5.0 or greater.

I never saw the OTA captured or a 5.X stock rom posted here, sorry. AT&T is notorious for blocking the release of firmware packages for their branded devices, so you won't find a V410 kdz from LG support either. If you can't get the System Update to work from the Settings menu, you might be stuck as far as stock goes. There wasn't much interest in updating stock in the community here because stock 5.0 patched the vulnerability that let us sign our own boot images. That effectively blocked TWRP and custom roms since the bootloader can't be unlocked. You could try the old take your sim out, reboot and check for the update trick. Some people say that doesn't work, and others swear by it.
There are plenty of 5.X and higher custom rom options, if you want to update the system that way. Tesla, Tipsy, and Validus were all 5.1 roms and they're still on androidfilehost.com. LOS and Candy have been updated up to 7.1. I keep Tesla on my V410 and it works great. All the custom roms rely on being on the 4.4 stock bootloader and radios since the kitkat bootloader was the only one vulnerable to the Bump exploit, so you're in a good place to start from.

I find it strange that there isn't a separate device category on XDA for GPad 7.0. I guess there must be a reason - but it's probably too geeked out for a common humanoid like me to understand.

You aren't the first person to wonder about that. We requested a different forum for the V400/410 early on and it never happened. I don't know why. It does get confusing. You'll find the V400, V410, V480, V700 and probably a few more devices discussed here. A large majority of the development is for the V400/410, though.

Download twrp for the V410 to a computer, then connect the tablet to the computer and try using this command with fastboot:
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
That should boot you into TWRP without actually flashing it. If it works, from there you should be able to try to wipe and flash some roms. Sorry, but I'm not convinced it will work in the state your tablet is in. If your device is falling back to fastboot, your laf partition is blank or damaged and very possibly some other partitions are missing or damaged too, and that might prevent TWRP or roms from working right.
If that fails, you can use fastboot to restore the laf partition and hope that brings back download mode so you can try the kdz again:
Code:
fastboot flash laf laf.img
I've restored my laf this way; I actually intentionally nuked laf to enable fastboot. I can provide laf.img if you decide to try this.
Hi everyone,
I bought axon 7 (A2017) Chinese version from aliexpress. It's on B07 version, when trying to check OTA updates - it says no updates. If I understood correctly, that's because seller flashed gapps. No problems, I thought, I can do this myself... After 2 days of reading, downloading malware and even trying to register on chinese zte forums I give up.
-Tried simply putting update files on sd card and updating - no luck. Most probably because I can't find b08/b09 updates for straight A2017 (without U or G), have the last two only.
-Installed drivers, tried unlocking bootloader -failed. Adb works, detects device, however after rebooting to edl - adb does not detect any devices (enabled usb debugging and oem unlocking.
-tried flashing with MiFlash - errors "[2,07 COM6]:cannot receive hello packet,MiFlash is trying to reset status!"
-tried rebooting to edl manually (up/down+power) - boots, but adb does not detect devices (MiFlash sees it as com6 though)
-tried using axon7tool and minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.4 - same, detects while on, reboots to edl and nothing
-tried sideloading twrp through the adb sideload - says signatures are bad...
Oh, as a bonus, recovery is in Chinese, so I have to guess what's what
What could be the issue? Drivers, device itself? Owner? I don't want to be on the damn 6.0.1 - my nexus 5 was on that. plus zte skin is awful, I would want to flash cyanogenmod or at least a newer version that does not have the damn bell icon, or permanently stuck sms that I can't delete or mark as read
Is there a way to flash US or EU firmware? Any ideas would be welcome. And sorry for writing here - as a new user I'm unable to reply on the dev posts
Hi I have the same problem can anyone help on this issue to resolve
My unit is from aliexpress also but it was B11 when i received it. What i did was enabled usb debugging and oem unlock from dev options. Then boot in stock recovery and format the phone. I think it was the option above the choices where there is 'sd' written. Then installed the update via sd for b13.

I finally managed to do this via this method
https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-b13-chinese-a2017-root-unlock-t3549873
and now I run lineageOS
you will need a laptop that you have admin access to, which allows you to disable your antivirus though.. which was my main problem
Moderators, if any, you can lock the thread
Hi man I hope you're OK. Today I was on A2017V2.1.1B07(MM) and I just downloaded B11(third one) from this link (http://www.ztedevice.com.cn/support/detail?id=B4C0ACE418834F588FED0C72D6046C78]) and put it on SD card and updated and installed it from settings(although I downloaded and put B11 on sd card, it showed B13 ROM update in settings). Then when It was finished , I got B15 Nougat OTA in settings and downloaded and installed it then again I've got B16 OTA in settings and installed it and now everything is okay. But I wanna ask you if I did it all correctly???(because I downloaded B11 Rom(not b13 rom from that link above) but I got B13 when I put that B11 on sd card and went to the setting)and Did you do the same???
Hi,
To be honest, I don't remember the actual steps. I followed this threadhttps://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-b13-chinese-a2017-root-unlock-t3549873 and finally did it =)But I don't think I was able to get and instal OTA updates =) I'm on US B25 version now, and every time I update I basically use DrakenFX's builds. How do you like your axon mate?
build 16 is latest so you are up to date
I am using LG V20 F800K, Android Nougat, rooted with DirtySanta. I am following this guide to root on Android Oreo.
However, when I used LGUP Patched here, I encountered the error "DLL for F800K10e is invalid. Please, install valid DLL package (*. msi). for the model." (see attached image).
Please show me how to fix this error?
Also, @xcl0udx, I want to ask: At step 4, when connecting my phone to the computer, does my phone need to turn off and go to Download Mode? Or still turn on, in the main screen?
Thank you very much.

Hi
Thanks a ton for saving me from the mental pain, I was in. I also have the F800K as yours and I had upgraded to pie but it was torture to the phone. When newly installed, it was smooth on phone but had a noticeable lag but after few months of use and plenty of upgrades (play store services, apps & other stuff) it had become very painful to use and not to mention the horrible battery life due to OS using a lot of resources. Previously I had an even worse experience with oreo and pie was a bit better than oreo but I wanted to come back to nougat so direly.
The normal way of using LG UP (with & without uppercut) didn't work. I used the LG UP dual-mode as you mentioned and it worked. I did a step by step downgrade, from pie to oreo and then to nougat. Everything worked fine and now I have a perfectly smooth phone. Thanks to you.
OK so I need some help...
When I originally purchased my LG G6 in June of 2019, I made sure it was a US997 model, but I ended up getting a BRIGHTPOINT version during my purchase. I went through the website to check the imei and the device ID and it gave me the not unlockable status.
After that, I went and decided to update the software manually to US99721e since it wouldn't OTA it and have been on that ever since. Now, I just recently tried while on the 21e software and I was given an unlock.bin code!
So if someone could help me out:
IF you're on a US997 BRIGHTPOINT G6:
-Download LG UP and UpperCut
-Download US997_21e_01_0211-UCL.kdz at lg-firmwares.com (this is the one I'm on, try this one first!)
-Once it's done, enable developer mode, adb debugging, and OEM unlock
-Go through the unlocking process
Please let me know what you find out!!
Is that only for us cellular?
Sent from my V60 ThinQ using XDA Labs
I have a brightpoint LG G6, which I bought as the seller claimed it was an unlocked US997, failing to share it was a OEM phone. I don't understand how this works please can you clarify? I tried the unlocking process and I have to supply my phone information to LG. Their database says it is a brightwell phone and so they won't release the unlock. Are you saying that after installing this ROM I don't need the key from LG to unlock the bootloader?
I have installed Uppercut and LGUP (1.14 as newer versions don't seem to work). I downloaded the ROM and I have the LGUP loaded. It shows the phone using US99721a. I have 4 process options, Refurbish, Upgrade, FOTA upgrade or Phonesettings which is the one to use?
It works! At least I obtained an unlock.bin file from LG. I need to work out which is the best LG G6 US997 ROM and how to load it when my SD card doesn't work. Any help or pointers to useful information much appreciated. For anyone else trying this here is what I found. I downloaded the LG windows drivers and LGUP 1.14 (There are newer versions but these don't work with uppercut. I downloaded Uppercut from XDA website and then you run Uppercut not LGUP. This immediately caused my virus checked to block it as it contains a trojan. I didn't like that but googled to find others had the same issue. There seems to be a way to load the correct file to get LGUP to work directly and I would recommend researching that but I disabled the virus software and proceeded. I used the UPGRADE option in LGUP - you need to reboot your phone into download mode. To do so, disconnect USB cable then Power off the phone completely. Now hold Volume Up then plug in USB cable at the same time. Make sure that LGUP is NOT running when you connect the USB cable and start it once you are in download mode. It loads the ROM very quickly and takes a bit longer to reboot and then it needs time to upgrade android as you have a 6 months newer version of Android 8. Then follow direction on the LG unlock site https://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev. You will need to install ADK https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools unzip after you download. LG emailed my unlock code immediately.
Yes, I can confirm that it works with the US997 model now. I already was at version US99721e so I didn't have to jump through the hoops to load this version. I went through the steps to unlock the bootloader via the LG developer website and voila, got sent the unlock.bin file, too.
Now I am pretty sure that I tried that in past perhaps 1-2 years ago and it didn't work, so perhaps LG has secretly flipped a few bits in their database to allow unlocking for these not quite brand new devices.
I just applied the unlock.bin and got the "cannot check for corruption" warning on the boot screen. So this is working - fantastic!
Now have to restore my device from the LG Backup I made before and put on the SD card.
I had tried the unlock last year but I didn't retry before I updated so it may have worked anyway and the update of the ROM wasn't needed. I unlocked the phone and installed Sky Hawk recovery but when that starts it asks for a deception password and nothing I have tried works. I'm not sure if that is a real issue or I can continue safely with flashing a new ROM. Has anyone worked through this issue?

First, when you're in Adroid remove all screen lock mechanisms, you can re-enable it later.
Enable USB debugging, do adb reboot bootloader and fastboot flash recovery with this recovery instead (rel_o2):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g6/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-unofficial-fixes-t3722199
Do the button combo to launch recovery. If you're in recovery, first reformat /data (you have to enter "yes") to get rid of encrption and after that flash the anti-root removal tool mentioned in the post. Then reboot into recovery and then flash Magisk and/or your ROM of choice. Note that I have only used this with stock ROM and Magisk and not tried any custom ROMs, but the thread has plenty of people having also tried other ROMs.
How do you even know if you have a Brightpoint device?
I found out when I tried to unlock. http://mobile.developer.lge.com/
Thanks for the info. I'll dig into this once I know for sure that a version of Android 10 is available to load into the phone.
What I've been dealing with so far keeps asking for a 15 digit IMEI number. My phone only has a 14 digit value.
I pulled box (yes I kept it) and discovered that the IMEI is 15 digits. No idea why the value is the phone truncates the last digit. The site that checks IMEI numbers says that it is the platinum edition: US997PL. Gee, the box says that.
I purchased a Zenfone 3 ZE552KL ( actually ASUS_Z012DC) on eBay that I wanted to put a custom ROM on.
It was indicated that the 3.5mm jack did not work. I thought it's a hardware issue, it's fine and I'll just replace it eventually.
However, after starting the procedure to install LineageOS, the phone would not be detected when plugged into USB, it would only work for charging
I tried:
- different USB cables (I am sure they are data cables)
- tried with USB debugging.
- tried different OS (mac, Linux, Win10) on different USB ports.
I did some research and found this thread that has the same problem: https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3/help/headphone-jack-usb-file-transfer-to-t3855942 The person seems to have fixed it:
What I did was I flashed (while device is unlocked) the Nougat raw firmware (WW_ZE552KL_14.2020.1712.85_M3.10.47.15), tested it and both were functioning. I decided to update to Oreo using the system update feature and it is still now working after I installed all the Oreo updates. I'm not planning to re-lock anytime soon as I installed root and found it beneficial.
I did follow the unofficial unlock/ re-lock prior to doing the previous steps, although I first flashed the factory raw rom (CSC_ZE552KL_13_13_1_36_M2_6_7_P7_userdebug.zip), unlocked and the flashed the Oreo raw firmware (WW_ZE552KL_15.0410.1806.68_M3.10.47.19) . Maybe skipping to flash the Nougat Raw firmware caused the problem? I'm not really sure, sorry I'm relatively new to all these.

The only difference is that this user burtosdad has "ZE552KL" in the firmware, but it seems to be the same phone. I was not able to find the firmware that the user refers to.
I have tried flashing "UL-ASUS_Z012D-WW-14.2020.1708.56-user.zip" by putting it on an SD card and going into recovery mode, but it failed (I think the error was that it failed an identification check or something).
What should I try next? Any way to get Nougat on this phone and try to fix the USB+phone jacks?
Thank you
Update:
Ok, so I found the official Asus files and here's what I tried doing:
Unlocked bootloader using ZE552KL_SIGNED_Android_M_UnlockTool_2016_0715.zip
This worked (getting a black screen before the ASUS logo now), and after this was done, I tried to flash the official firmware UL-ASUS_Z012D-WW-13.16.5.36-user.zip
However, I get this error:
This package is for "WW_Phone" devices; this is a " ",
and then an error " /sideload/package.zip (status 7) "
