If you are unlocked and running a global rom, you can try but take the stock kernel boot.img backup just in case it loops. Its best to rewrite all partitions on the T mobile device if you are unlocked which can be done by using the unbrick tool once :good:
Edit: You should follow this thread for a detailed discussion :good:
U may have to change the device check for any op6 kernel...they all boot. I tested every kernel. Flash rules.. And we can't use the tool to rewrite the critical partitions, we don't have access to them..can u please see why we cannot access them even with fastboot oem unlock_critical? We are all totally unlocked

T-Mobile users currently cannot use the unbrick tool to overwrite critical partitions due to a hardware/software check that mismatches.

I'm just hoping someone leaks the ops file for t-mo, since i'm not sure where these files come from to begin with.
So yeah, go for it, you might save us all.

All these files are possessed by the support staff who generally share those during a remote session and there on those are further uploaded. So someone with t-mobile variant can contact support and try getting the tool.
I am on tmo model flashed with international software and run in ex kernel. I did make a backup of stock kernel before hand

Below is stock firmware(.tot) for V510...
HERE for V510 stock .tot, LG Flash .dll and individual partitions
LG Flash directions etc can be found here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448960
Just apply same steps but with G Pad tot/dll instead.
Below are some conversion ideas... only try them at your own risk!!! They may result in a hard brick.
So which brave soul will try converting their current non-GPE G Pad into a GPE?
If LG hasn't added any tricks... flashing the stock V510 .tot file into the device should work. I've also included just the individual partitions for the boot chain... modem.. etc. Those might be able to be flashed to the V500 instead of running the entire tot if you only want an unlocked bootloader but nothing else. Loki would no longer be required at that point. If flashing just the bootchain.. I would flash aboot, sbl1, sbl2, sbl3 at minimum.
To flash the .tot.. LG Flash 1.8 is required. To flash the partitions... you'd use dd commands via adb shell.
example:
adb shell
dd if=/sdcard/aboot.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot
I would love to see this converted to kitkat 4.4.. =D but not willing to risk it myself..
I'll risk it later, considering we've got a way out. Very exciting!

check the root LG folder in my link i posted in OP.
is 1.8 needed for G Pad? The dlls suggest only needing 1.6.
probably won't work given that secure boot is on, once it's on it can't be disabled at least on the on the snapdragon 600+, you'll probably just hard brick it

I want to extract system.img, but it's not in the OP link, I could do it myself if I knew the offsets of where it begins/ends.
Found it, thanks. It notified me that my version was out of date. What do you think? Hard brick coming or recoverable? No liability, just want your honest opinion @autoprime

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.

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?

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.

It can't. It's just a dump of the system partition. Usually benefits people with other devices looking for something off this device. Maybe an updated app or lib.

If someone could modify this to be able to prompt me for an unlock code when I enter a different SIM card, I would be very, very happy. Apparently T-Mobile does something to stop the prompt from coming up, and I want to be able to unlock it almost immediately. I'm on my way to get the phone now, but I don't want to come home with a useless paperweight.
Apparently a similar stock ROM was created for the LG G4 as it had the same problem. I would love to see a ROM for this once TWRP is publicly released for the V10!

No need to be sorry, if your a us996 (unlocked) user you can test you'll most likely get a response out of it. If you're a vs995 (Verizon) user it'll have you in a bootloop. With that being said TEST AWAY! lol

TEST AWAY! BEWARE OF CATS, THOSE MF'S BITE
Vs995 boots!
@OneDon It booted!
Flashed ARM64 7.1 nano gapps and it works. Stock gapps also works.
Wi-Fi works
Time service crashes during setup and it crashed when I changed it to the 24 hour clock but that's it. It doesn't seem to be an issue.
You have the name as the us996. Not important but figured I'd let you know.
Default cam is working but touch to focus doesn't seem to respond. Auto focus was working though.
Substratum is working .... Partially...I just broke it applying more stuff with substratum :[ Not booting now....dirty flash fixed it
Overall this Rom is ready for it's own thread so it gets more attention and more users can test it out.
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 have the h910 currently running NATF Mega rom, but getting ready to switch to Alpha, it's still being updated and is the most stable stock roms around

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?
