need help lg v20 h918v10r.please help me.

need help lg v20 h918v10r.
Does anyone have any way to help me downgrade it to h918v10j?
Currently the h918v10r version is antirollback version 1 so downgrade to h918v10j is not.
Thank you all.

This has been covered already. No way as of now.

So basically you answered your own question in first post. I fail to see the point in making it.

Help me, please. Point me in the right direction (H918)

Okay, first off, I've looked around for guides but only found ones dated years back, so I'm sure if they are still relevant (I don't want to brick my phone).
All I'm trying to do is install TWRP on my phone, I've only gotten as far as unlocking the bootloader. Maybe I'll root it later but for now, I just want TWRP installed.
Someone please help (be newbie friendly?)

This one?
Yeah, that's the one I found originally, it looked super promising but I'm stuck at two spots that he doesn't really explain, like the following:
"You must have a version of laf that has the COPY opcode." -I have no idea what that is/means, or how to even check that.
"This is NOT a guide for flashing KDZs -- there are plenty of those out there -- search." -I've searched, really. I searched "Flash KDZ H918 10t" and only found guides for 10r and earlier, and then the one 10t guide I did find wanted to have my phone already rooted... which brings me back to square 1.
I might be asking for a lot here, but I figure someone out there can guide me.

So he did put a link to the KDZ you need. Later on I'll give a Dropbox file for LG up and uppercut. Not at my PC right now.

Hello guys, a friend of mine and, myself are moving over from the LG K20 plus to the Tmobile variant of the V20. I wanted to know what you guys are running on it, most stable rom, kernel etc. Any ideas, suggestions and, advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, in advance.

I took a quick glance at that thread. I hope that the Bluetooth works better than originally stated. I'm also hoping that volte works on it.

Not sure on the Bluetooth issue, but if you use the mk2000 kernel you'll probably be good, shouldn't have any issues with Volte as long as you run a 918 rom and have a tmobile sim

Unless your phone is on a very old security patch, yes it's the only way to root

Could you please explain to me what 'FWUL natively from USB' is exactly? Sorry if it seems like a dumb question. I am not new to rooting phones but, this way of rooting is very new to me..Also I read in the Laf thread that you need to use a program called Rufus? What does all this mean in simple terms?

It stands for Forget Windows Use Linux. Its a operating system that is ran from usb. If you choose to root, make sure you follow the instructions on the lafsploit thread very carefully.

I appreciate you explaining this to me.

Hey guys, I just received the devices in the mail just now. Can anyone confirm that the post created by Kish9046 is still the only accurate way to gain root? Both devices are H9180P. Also, I'm looking for a stable rom that has volte and, stock camera. I am aware that some roms do affect the camera quality. Any ideas, knowledge, or opinions are greatly appreciated.

Just follow the laf exploit thread read and take your time numerous people have gained root. Alpha has a choice of the stock v20 camera and the v30 camera. I use the stock v20 camera and have no issues

OK thanks for the feedback and heads-up

Could I use an Type C adapter on my standard USB cable with a 3..0 quick charger head on the other end of the USB cable to get quick charge on this device? The cheap after market charger that came with this refurbished phone gets very hot and, I want to replace it.

I'm hearing that Tmobile is finally pushing out the oreo update for the H918, I don't have it yet. Does anyone know of how long it will take for everyone to get it?

Noob Question Please please reply....

Hi,im using a couple phone,ip8 and an LG G4 LS991,i love lg but things that i hate is this g4 is the bootloader cant be unlock coz my device antirollback was v4 and i cant root or modifying the phone.
Looking for a month but many thread say the v4 cant be bootloader unlocked.
So...
I want buy a brand new LG V20 or a Refurbish one,but thing that i want to know,is there a version of the V20 that the bootloader cant be unlock and have a antirollback version like the LG G4 LS991???
Please answer me,your ans very helpful,after solved ill delete the thread.
Huge Thanks.

Whatever you do, don't EVER buy a phone from Sprint. You really should stay away from ALL carriers, but if you must buy a carrier branded phone -- T-Mobile is the only choice.
For now, the LS997 (Sprint V20) is the only model that can't be rooted.

Root for H910 V20h?

My V20 having an issue with GPS since Oreo update. (I've tried the GPS locker apps but those are not really working) I didn't really care about it as this was my secondary phone, but now I want to use it as the main one. My theory is, if I downgrade it or try different kernel/rom, it will solve this problem. I swear I've looked everywhere, but I did NOT find any solution. All that I've found stops at version v20g... Can I downgrade/root somehow? My device is "virgin" means it is stock. Bootloader locked etc...
Thanks
ps. It was 3 years ago when I last rooted a device... the world has changed a bit since then (So let's just say I am a noob beginner )

The only thing... I didn't find anything for h910 v20h. As I've mentioned before, the latest was for the stock ROM version v20g. I just don't want to brick my device using the outdated method on a possibly unsupported version of ROM... But I would be happy if more then 10 people could confirm that I can use the same process on my v20h what was good for the v20g.
