Is this is TWRP for Marshmallow? Because the recovery files.you have uploaded are dated 25th September 2015?
@mfbcool yes...this is for Marshmallow... But dont swipe allow modifications!!
Member gettin error after swiping...just do read only...
I root my device by this method yesterday
but today root not work in titanum backup
I check it by root checker and everything is ok
Even though this method works, I would not recommend moving SuperSU to system partition. I didn't moved it and still SU permissions are working fine. I say so because Chainfire in his new SuperSU adopted a 'Systemless Root' method that roots without modifying the system partition so that apps like Android Pay work properly. He achieved this by patching the Boot image and so root is installed in boot image and is enabled at every boot (that's why you may experience some boot loops after rooting). This makes taking OTA updates and unrooting the device easier as you can unroot by flashing the Stock Boot.img instead of flashing the whole system partition.
I believe moving SuperSU to system partition destroys the main purpose and idea Chainfire had while making SuperSU compatible with Marshmallow. We all know EMUI won't update on Rooted devices. So it would be a pain to reflash whole Stock System Partition before taking OTA.
Hi thanks, I'm root my mobile I'm in android 6.0 now how to get back to kikkat a stock rom from twrp
@G E N E R A L open supersu app and tick the mount name separation and restart phone... Titanium, kingroot all will recognize root
Hit thanks if it helps....
@TMDMOOSA if you wanna go back to KK, Flash stock recovery first!!
Then flash the back pkg B320, then B070
If you gets error, flash middle pkg of chc rom and then flash directly KK Rom usin stock recovery!!

hi
plz help
i flash stock recovery and my phone go to rescue mode
help
I have successfully built TWRP 3.0.0-0 for our device which fixes the weird swipe to allow modifications bug and is fully compatible with Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/recovery-twrp-3-0-0-0-huawei-honor-4c-t3349495
Also, to re-flash Stock ROM, you don't need to flash Stock Recovery. Huawei phones have 2 inbuilt recoveries. The second recovery (which is the Stock) can be accessed by 3 buttons method (Power + Volume Up + Volume Down).
@mfbcool i saw that thread early... Great work man... I know huawei have 2 inbuilt recoveries but 2nd one is erecovery and thats of no use at all... I tried it too many times!! If twrp 3.0 can flash update.app files,,, it gonna rocks , wish u best of luck man!! You did it
The instructions are updated as of 11-20-17. Win7 only cause Win10 sucks and uses powershell and the fastboot commands don't work in powershell.
These are the proper files and procedures for installing Root, the latest Kernel, the best Superuser version and TWRP.
This is for NOUGAT 7.1.1. (and possibly beyond) There is a special procedeur to make flashtool work with the latest firmwares for Nougat ..
Before you Root and install TWRP you need to go back to my link and unlock bootloader..
You also need to download and install Android Studio Software and install it. Back to this portion of the install later.
You also need a special kernel to allow things on the phone to keep working.
This will work only for Nougat firmware.
You will need to download Boot img, TWRP img, SuperSu
Save TWRP and boot img files to the Android Platform folder in your PC here C:\Users\enter the current pc users log in name here\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools . Save the Kernel zip and SUperSU zip file to an SD card and put the card inside your phone to access it through TWRP later in the process. Keep in mind that the Kernel may be updated. Check for updates herel here. Do a "date last modified" list of the files on that page by clicking on the grid view box on the upper right portion of the screen just under the "sign in" button. This helps you see what files have been updated in most recent order.
You will need to download the special Flashtool file here Install it.
Download the .jar patch file that makes the software version updated to the latest 9.23.2 and place it in this location C:\flashtools.
Now, download the special .fsc file and paste it in C:\Users"current user that is logged in"\.flashTool\devices\F81XX. Without this file you will not beable to update the device to nougat.
Goto C:\Flashtool\drivers and click on this file which was installed during the Flashtool installation.
Check off these boxes to install the drivers for the device you will be rooting. "Flash Boot Drivers, Flash Mode Drivers"
Now download and install these special ADB drivers to allow it to perform the Firmware update. Without it you wont beable to install the FTF file.
Open Sony Flash tool. Click on XI button. A window open. Click on Xperia Performance and then a small menu open under that. Choose F8132 ( i choose dual for my device)
If you can not get the newest firmware to show up for your device.( mine is 41.2.A.7.8 aka Nougat 7.1.1) then you can download it here Close Sony Flashtool.
Copy this FTF file and place it in folder C:\Users"The user you are currently logged into your pc with"\.flashTool\firmwares. Open Sony flash tool. Click on lightning bolt. Choose Flash mode in the small popup box. Window opens and shows your formware in the "firmwares" box. Click on plus symbol to the left of that firmware and it opens to the bottom to show the device model ( mine is F8132)/ Click on that plus symbol to the left of the model number to show the location of your firmware origination. Click on plus symbol and it then shows the firmware number 41.2.A.7.8. Click on the firmware and the entire window will populate a bunch of new options. If you want to wipe everythign on your phone then you need to check off the boxes "SSD and UserData" in the "wipe" box. Leave everythign else unchecked. Click the flash button at the bottom and it will start to prepare the files for installation onto yout device.
A window pops up that tells you to turn off your phone.
Turn your phone off. After its turned off, hold the volume down button while plugging the phone into your pc to get into fastboot mode. Your computer should be looking for the correct drivers to allow the device to work in this Flashboot mode. Once the flashing is done just close the flashtool. Turn your phone on. Go into settings and scroll down to "about phone then click on "build number" about 7 times. You will get a new optioon back in settings menu called "developer option". Click on that tabturn on "usb debugging" and turn off "verify apps over usb". Turn off phone.
Hold volum button UP this time while plugging phone back into pc.
Now go back to the folder C:\Users" name of user that is logged into the pc"\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools. You will open a cmd prompt in this folder by holding down your right mouse button and click on the shift key then release the mouse button. This will open a pop up window where you can choose to " open command window here" when the cmd window opens, copy and paste this "fastboot devices" press enter button, your computer should respond with this ......CB512A697c fastboot.......This lets you know that your phone is in the correct mode and ready to be programmed.
Now you will install the boot img by copy and pasting this in cmd line "fastboot flash boot boot.img" The PC should tell you OKAY with some other irrelevant info.
Now you will install the twrp img by copy and pasting this in cmd line "fastboot flash recovery TWRP-3.0.3-0-dora.img" The PC should tell you OKAY with some other irrelevant info.
Now you will install Kernel, and SuperSU. Turn on phone while pushing power button holding volume down button for about 5 secnds then release the bottom volum button then after 5 seconds release the power button to initiate TWRP.
Swipe to allow modifications then choose "Install" to install the zip files. Navigate to the SD card that has the kernel and SU zip files. Click on them to install. Reboot. TWRP might ask if you want to install the TWRP app before the phone starts to reboot. Just say no. After that, a few seconds later, the device reboots and then the Phone might go throw optimization process which takes some time. You will notice the counting of optimized files. Be patient.
When phone is booted and running, you might have to reinstall SuperSU via the Operating system as a APK like you would a normal app just to get root going. No big deal.
A caution...
When doing a backup with Twrp you should only backup System and Data
When doing a full restore, wipe only System, Data and the cache files. Do not ever delete your SDcard with the backups on it.
THIS IS THE VERY LAST UPDATE FOR ROOTING THE X Performance. IT IS NOUGAT 7.1.1
FORGET ABOUT ROOTING OREO>> ITS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. PLUS IT IS NOT A DECENT UPDATE TO BE HONEST> IT JUST CHANGES A BUNCH OF MENUS AROUND AND LOCKS DOWN YOUR PHONE MORE>
Please do not upload my kernel to other hostings!
Official website for my kernel is
https://kernel.andro.plus/tone.html
So, if I was to relock my bootloader after installing TWRP and rooting, what would happen? Would TWRP go away? I'd like to let the phone OTA update to nougat, and you can't do that with an unlocked bootloader....

-relock phone using Flashtool.
-repair device using Xperia Companion(it will update automatically to Nougat).
-unlock phone again using Flashtool.
-install AndroPlus Kernel through command prompt(or you can also use Flashtool to do it.however you prefer).
-install TWRP recovery..you're all set!
P.S.
on steps i said(this is optional),you may not turn on your device along the process..that's what i do & i find it easier that way..goodluck!

I did try that - although, I set it up with a pin rather than a password. It didn't accept my pin when asking for the password.
Now I have a phone with a locked bootloader, running nougat, and I set it up with a password. I wonder if that password you use on the lock screen is the same password that Android is asking for when I unlock my bootloader?
I also could not seem to get the phone to boot into recovery after rebooting when I got the password screen. So weird....

So if unlocking the boot loader wipes data, how can android ask for my password when I reboot? I am a little mystified at how this is supposed to work Rooting Marshmellow was easier than Nougat....

true!MM was easier but Nougat is a bit complicated..however,you could still make changes on Nougat when phone is rooted.anyway,try again from the very beginning then this time after fixing phone using Xperia Companion,do the steps i mentioned..i myself couldn't figure out how it's asking for any password at first.AndroPlus also mentioned it before but didn't explain further.but it's alright coz i got it working now.

I think my issue with the unknowable password after unlocking the bootloader on Nougat could have been fixed by wiping data+dalvik cache. I was having issues with the camera under nougat so I flagged trying to get it going and flashed MarshMellow. Once that was done, I got the bloody password prompt again, so I wiped data + cache and it booted correctly.
Anyway, gonna ignore Nougat until fastboot supports nougat
Issues with passwords kept / unknown and blocked are due to the fact the security portion is stored
next to the data partition area, in what we call the footer, and that area was wrong for you.
By wiping data completely (most reliably, a factory reset which will format the data partition),
the footer is also erased instead of simply deleting the files like a Wipe would do.
lost system?
I got as far as getting boot.img and twrp.img in my phone, and then appeared to lose my system since it stuck on the Sony logo and wouldn't boot into the system despite several tries. Idiot that I am, I panicked and come onto the forum to post a plead for help. I've managed to get my system back on now and feel very foolish, so just editing the post to remove the request for help. Thank you so much for the guide, very greatly appreciated! Looking forward to upgrading to Nougat.
Will this guide work with Nougat? I have a F8132 with 39.2.A.0.327

It works if you get updated files. I struggled a bit before I finally extracted the boot.img from the AndroPlusKernel for my version which I flashed in fastboot and flashed the kernel and supersu in twrp. I think that's what did it. I was so eager to root that I missed that I was using MM-files at first. :silly:

I ended up finding a way to downgrade to marshmallow following some instructions from from @sdugoten
The instructions are updated.. With proper files for the latest and greatest kernel and SuperSU and TWRP. NOUGAT Only .. Will not work for any other OS versions
AS flashtool does not work for 7.1.1 how to proceed to install nougat 7.1.1 and enable root and install twrp?
Hey Guys. This guide will help you if
1. If Using Custom Rom and want to revert to latest stock rom.
2. If Stock Rom got corrupted or became laggy.
3. You want to reinstall stock rom.

2. This will clean your phone just like new phone.
3. First read the post twice carefully then proceed.
4. ALL .bat FILES TO BE RUN IN FASTBOOT MODE ONLY, IF YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT FASTBOOT MODE THEN GOOGLE "HOW TO GET FASTBOOT MODE IN ASUS ZENFONE 2
5. I may change name of files in folder. Use common sense to identify them.
Pre-requisites:
1. Charge your phone atleast 60%.
2. Backup any important data you might not wanna loose to either sd card or usb drive or pc.
3. Copy the rom zip in the sd card of your phone. (The one with size in GB)
4. Android USB Driver should be installed already, if it is not then install all drivers in the "Drivers Folder".
5. Enable USB Debugging.
For that go to "Settings" ,Scroll to bottom goto "about", goto "Software Information", tap "Build number" upto 7 times or till it
says "You are a developer now". Then go to "Settings" you will find "Developer Options", open it and enable "USB Debugging"
4. Common sense, patience.

Step 6: You should see stock recovery options. Then choose "Update from sd card" and select the rom zip you pasted in SD card.
(If you don't have sd card, then paste rom in internal memory and don't tick "internal storage" in twrp in step 2) But micro
sd is preferable.
Step 7: Wait. Your phone may take 20-30 or more minutes. So leave it on charging.
METHOD 2Step 1: Download and Install all drivers given in download folder. Download RAW firmware for your phone. See above in download links.

Would it not be easier to get the stock raw image and just flash it with the asus flash tool?

Thanks for suggestion. But the reasons are
First thing is stock raw image of latest version is very difficult to find.
Second thing sometime asus flash tool stops responding. So you have to wait again for 30 minutes. Also it doesn't show progress sometimes.

No offense meant. But the entire collection of raw files are here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3448966
As long as you have the correct drivers (which you need for your process too) the AFT will get the job done in one easy step.

No offense meant. But the entire collection of raw files are here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3448966
As long as you have the correct drivers (which you need for your process too) the AFT will get the job done in one easy step.

I have the Asus Zenfone 2 ZE551ML with sound issues, (it's only when the phone rings that the speaker works) and I put it into recovery mode to wipe cache/data, but it got stuck while doing that and I forced it off. But now, it's stuck at the Asus Boot logo with the rotating icon underneath.
Please help!!!!
Hello, my 551ml has stock LP, it's rooted with bootloader unlocked and Xposed installed. If I want to install the latest MM with through the raw flashing tool, should I install the MM bootloader first or it is included into the raw file? Thank

Ok. humm, in AFT, it recognize my phone. (there is no OS on it), i choose the good model, i choose the good firmware, but i got this error in a box
"Can't open file 'SERIALNUMBER_frp_request_server_log.txt' (error 5:denied access)" i can only press OK
and now the button under "state" is red and under description, it's " check the detected serial number failure (not found the device of "SERIALNUMBER") "
you understand the i've replace the real serial number by SERIALNUMBER in those lines.
Anyone ever had this problem?

did you find any?
i want to remove the lineageos and install latest stock LP but i have no clue how to do it
I have a LG K20 plus with t mobile as the carrier. I believe the model should be TP260. I mistakenly restored a twrp backup from a metro pcs phone that I got from this site coincidentally. Now my phone drops calls and data frequently and shows metro pcs on bootup vs tmobile. I have a kdz file but it won't flash because it now also thinks the model is MP260...not TP260 and says it's a mismatch. Any ideas on how I can get a restore for tmobile to try to reset the phone?
Just bumping
i could use a restore too. I installed super SU root and lost access to android pay. I wasnt to try that magisk root
I restored mine with the linked files.
install LG driver (uninstall any other drivers first)
install LGUP
remove battery from phone and replace
hold volume up key
insert USB while holding down volume up key
phone will boot to download mode
drivers will find phone
run UPPERCUT.exe
UPPERCUT.exe will launch LGUP with phone connected. if phone is not connected try again.
in LGUP lower window browse to TP26010k_00_0316.kdz
choose UPGRADE option in LGUP
click START in LGUP
factory ROM and Recovery will be installed, bootloader will still be unlocked
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BygTApD1iNSSb3pCcU9RRlV1MVE
magisk can be installed using the same method as superSU. Mine is working along with AndroidPay

You were able to install TWRP after this process with the TP26010k_00_0316.kdz?
I am on TP26010E and don't want to upgrade to TP26010k if TWRP cannot be flashed as it has been stated here.
Yeah, you have to perform OEM unlock again, but I have been able to flash TWRP after flashing the previously attached .kdz with the LGUP tool

Can I install this kdz from twrp and install supersu?
no, you have to use LGUP tool. This is a LG image that will flash everything including your recovery partition, and not a flashable ROM image.
You flash root through TWRP, you use LGUP for kdz as the user above said rom flashing and kdz flashing are two different things
See this post which reflects the new kdz available https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73690098&postcount=3
Just a Heads up there is a new version out, as of 9/01/17
MP26010r_00_0817.kdz

I flashed the modded ROM for MetroPCS, and couldn't flash kdz file because my phone was identified as MP260, instead of TP260.
I wiped the phone and re-locked the bootloader, and the phone would only boot into download mode, It gave a message about it being corrupted.
I took it back to TMO, and the sales people thought it was a virus, and replaced the device.
I've made a TWRP backup for anyone who runs into the same problem. This will fix your problem, so you can use the flash tools available for this device.
NOTE: I also provided Root tools and instructions for those Rooting for the first time.
1. Power off device, plug into computer, then hold volume up for download mode and let COM drivers install, you may need to change COM port to 41, through device manager.
2. In LGUP, choose upgrade or FOTA upgrade.
2. Once you flash firmware, you'll have to hit reset once or twice to get rid of the encryption failure notification.
3. Enjoy rooting your device again if you so choose.
ROOTING:
NOTE: Must have ADB & Fastboot setup already.
First you must unlock your bootloader.
1. In about phone settings, tap build number 6x to get developer settings, enable adb debugging and OEM unlock. Now plug into your computer.
2. Boot into Fastboot mode.
A. Open command prompt and type: adb reboot-bootloader.
B. Next type: fastboot oem unlock.
WARNING: You'll be prompted to factory reset device to protect your data. Your chance to turn back, if your brave then continue. Your device will factory reset, and you'll have to perform the first step again and you'll be ready to root.
1. To flash TWRP, plug into computer, then in command line navigate to where you have your recovery.img
A. adb reboot-bootloader
B. fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
2. Pull battery and manually boot into recovery,
A. volume+down as soon as you see LG, release then press again quickly and hold, follow the steps provided.
3. Hit cancel for the encryption notice, and swipe to modify system.
4. You must format device to get rid of encryption message, so choose format and it will ask you to type, yes.
5. Stay in recovery and flash the no-encryption.zip, and Magisk, if you choose to use it for your SU manager. Stay in recovery.
6. Reboot into recovery, and then set up your TWRP environment.
7. Enjoy Root:laugh:
NOTE: If you decide to root again, try using Magisk for SU management. Magisk's mods are excellent, and can run along side Xposed. If you choose Magisk, do not flash SuperUser.zip

You could probably flash the TWRP back up. After that your device would be Identified as TP260, by the flash tools and you'd end up with the same issue I had, when you decided to go back to stock, so make a TWRP backup on external memory. The KDZ file most likely won't flash because it performs a DLL check, to match device with firmware.

I've got backup after unlock Bootloader and before root. Pretty sure it's got recovery on it. I always make a backup asap. It's the mp26010t (I had the November patch but some reason after root it says Oct).
Is that what you need?
Pm me if this is what you need and I'll send you a link
I have a Metro LG K20 Plus phone and want to change the firmware to T-Mobile. I have not been successful doing this as I always get invalid firmware, because LG UP recognizes the phone as a metro phone. Is there a way to succeed in getting the T-Mobile firmware on the phone?
thanks in advance.
lg k20 plus tmobil
lgup recognizes my model correctly as lg-tp260 on [com41] but it just sits there initializing for eternity. With my model highlighted I select it and I keep getting the error "LGUP cant load the model [C:\Program Files(x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model\com. I have installed lg air drive, lg bridge, lgup8994.dll, lgup for store. I desperately need to get this thing back to stock, I have the AICP rom installed but I dont like it. it was a mistake, if anyone can help I would appreciate it.

Could you PM me this link to the Metro PCS stock backup, if you still have it?
*After I wrote this whole thing as a DM i figured it might be helpful for a couple of people that are struggeling to root and install a custom recovery on their d722.*
Before we start you will need a PC with internet connection and a USB cable.
If you get stuck or need something about the device you can find it here. It's an XDA thread about the d722, it's mods, roms... : https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/lg-g3s-beat-d722-thread-t3110048
First you will need to flash your phone back to 4.4 kitkat firmware to ensure maximum compatibility (this is the only way my device would root) ( find it here: https://lg-firmwares.com/ (type in your model and download a 4.4 firmware closet to your region, language...)). We will do that with the lg flash tool (find it here: https://lgflash.com/download/) + also install lg drivers if you don't have them already (https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-mobile-drivers-and-software-CT10000027-20150179827560).
1. First enable developer options in phone settings by tapping the build number 7 times. Go to the developer options and there tick usb debugging. Than you want to turn you device off. Hold volume up and plug it into you computer. You will get into download mode. On your PC extract and open the lg flash tool. There you will chose your kdz firmware file you downloaded previously and click normal fash. Choose other instead of korean and your preferred language. When you flash it the tool might report an error but just ignore it and wait for the phone to reach 100% download. It will reboot itself when finished. After that you can close the flash tool and continue to the next step.
2. Now you will root your phone. You will do that with lg one click root (found here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-root-lg-firmwares-kitkat-lollipop-t3056951). Download the latest GUI version, install it onto your PC and open it. When your redy plug your phone into the computer (turned on no apps open) and click start. Wait for it to be done. It's normal for it to restart a few times.
3. Now we will instal the custom recovery to be able to flash ROMs. To do that you will need to dowbload this zip file from here and extract it with 7zip (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61220755&postcount=100) and install ADB (remeber install folder) (from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979). Paste aboot file into /sdcard folder (or folder of choice with adjusted path in command) ob your phone uding file manager. Than open CMD and type in
cd *path of your folder*
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/aboot.bin of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot
If you get an error that says there is no aboot file or something similar than you nees to change this command : dd if= *your phones path*/aboot.bin of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot For me it was : dd if=/external_SD/aboot.bin of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot
4. This should have installed a basic version of TWRP on your phone ane booted into twrp recovery but we will be updating it.
To get into recovery from off state hold volume down + power button until you see the LG logo. Relese both for a split second and hold both down again (volume down + power) until you see an option to factory reset (wont actualy reset anything if you did all steps correctly). Click yes and yes again by using volume and power buttons and you will be booted to TWRP.
Alternative is to go to playstore and download root app that boots you to recovery if you do it often.
This version is quite old and not capable of flashing newer ROMs so we will be flashing an updated version (download it here: https://vasy.ru/TWRP/jagnm/ and rename it to .img if it isnt named like that alredy). Easiest way is to download it to your PC and transfer it via USB if your PC detects the phone while in TWRP. If not boot it up transfer the files and boot back to recovery. Now just flash the .img file and reboot.
5. At this point you have root privilages (super SU) and a custom recovery. Now all theres left to do is to flash ROMs and mods.
You boot to TWRP recovery, connect your phone to the PC and transfer the .zip files you want to flash. Tha you click flash in twrp chose your ROM files and click add more, your GAPPS click add more and the mod (if you want to try it of course). Than you flash them, wair for it to finish and click reboot.
If it takes longer than 15 min+ than you probaboy have a bootloop. To fix it take out the battery put it back in and boot into recovery (volume down + power until LG logo pops up, release for half a second hold again, yes and yes). Try factory reseting (type yes). And than just flash the ROM and boot. If it boots go back to recovery and flash GAPPS and mod and it should normaly boot into android.
If nothing fixes your issue you can alway use the firmware and lgflashtool to go back to default unrooted kitkat or lolipop.
My recomendations:
I personaly use this liniage (14.1) 7.1 ROM as it's still getting updates (I also tried 8.1 but it's buggy, laggy and gapps don't work):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/cyanogenmod-14-1-lg-g3s-t3508224
And of course you want google apps to go along with it:
https://opengapps.org/ (pick ARM, android version of ROM (7.1 in this case) and how many preinstalled apps (I use nano))
I also have this mod installed which makes colours of your display a bit better:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/6z9yg1d3gooyz37/Sony_Bravia_3.zip
From here you can also get Exposed framework, root apps like LSpeed to speed up your phone even more, greenfy and amplify to improve battery life. Again every mod for this phone along with overclocking and other mods is or was discussed here at one point so dont be afraid to join the conversation in this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/lg-g3s-beat-d722-thread-t3110048
And ofcourse google is your friend if you get into any issues. Hope this helps, typed it on my G3s .
Thanks

It would be better for our phone to release an android 9 custom, it would be great. Here is the same phone as our processor and video accelerator. Android 9 would work great on our phone https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=633150&view=findpost&p=36961339
Thanks for the guide!
I bought a G3s D722 cheap off ebay to experiment with. I tried to flash four different kitkat roms many times on 2 computers and each time the phone went into boot loop (start tune and logo over and over) so I flashed the first UK Lollipop on the list and all went fine, there are not UK kitkat roms in the link.
The UK kitkat roms must be different is all I can determine anyone know where I can get one?
The preflash OS was V20e-EUR-XX and now its V20d
Any thoughts or suggestions anyone?
Thanks!
I couldn't get this to work so tried the very easy no PC method in the link and it works great!
