Hello fellas, I have a LG G2 that had kitkat 4.4.2 before i start to try change the rom.
After read so many things here and there, i still have problems with the installation of TWRP.
Now i manage to put Lolipop 5.0.2 using the LG Flashtool 2014, because no other method worked, but i want to change for a clenaner one like cloudy or something.
But nothing works on my cellphone relative to TWRP. I made the root using LG One Clic.
I did the upgrade on the room couse I had no other choice and I decided to go stock on my cellphone...turns out that i downloaded a ROM suggested by SDK tool or another program from here (no sure) and it was a Lolipop not a kitkat as I thought it would be.
Now I want to know if anyone has an idea about how to install the TWRP so I can flash other roms easily.
---Autorec no worked;
---TWRP Manager says it doesn't have busybox and dont have my model on the list, i think I should use d802 as I read around;
---SDK Tool not worked;
I have no idea what to do next. Please, help me.
I recently rooted my V20 without creating a backup (stupid of me) then once in twrp, I realized there was no custom Roms released for this varient!!! Now even my com doesn't recognise my device as V20 and I can't repair it!!! Is there any way to download any flashable LG stock or Custom rom to recover my phone from TWRP??? THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Try this:
Restore v20 to 100% Stock (!!even for bricked devices!!)
You need to put your phone in download mode and flash a stock firmware. Follow the link @myisn has mentioned. That should work just fine for you.
I recently acquired a second V20 and have already previously rooted my existing V20. Can I use the patched LGUP tool to just clone the relevant partitions of my rooted V20 onto the new stock V20 and avoid having to go through the whole dirty santa rooting procedure? If so, which partitions should I clone and which are device-specific partitions that I should leave alone.
Good day!
I have a V20 Sprint right after DirtySanta. I want rooted Oreo, I live in Europe (sorry for my English) and use a local telecom operator (CDMA2000 1xEV-DO). There are many incomprehensible I did not find it on the forum.
1) Updating which firmware components increases ARB? I.e. aboot, modem etc.
2) How, having an img file or a kdz file, can I find out the ARB version?
3) Does ARB increase when flashing with any of these methods: "partition dl", "fastboot flash", kdzwriter?
4) Can someone share a Sprint V20 Oreo MODEM and SYSTEM dump?
5) Did someone try to cut the leads on motherboard @runningnak3d https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...t-to-brick-your-phone-for-funsies-v1.3673622/ ?
6) It seems to me that the best option is to use SYSTEM (and MODEM?) from US99620f (US99620f_00_1120.kdz) . Both LS997 and US996 support CDMA2000 1xEV-DO frequency. US996 contains no bloatware. Does only vs995, us996 and ls997 support СDMA and they all have ARB 1 on Oreo?
7) How best to try:
a) Flash (Installing KDZ US996 7.0 via patched LGUP "partition dl" -> Re-installing the same KDZ via "update") LS997 7.0 to US996 7.0; then flash SYSTEM.img US996 8.0 (+ core mk2000 Oreo US996)? If there is no connection, flash MODEM.img US996 8.0?
Or
b) The same without prior full flashing to US996. Which kernel @askermk2000 and TWRP @Phoenix591 in the case of such a "Frankenstein" to use - LS or US? Which kernel is better to use in this case: LS997_v2.1, US996Santa_v2.2 or US996Santa_v2.2-BETA38? Would it make sense to flash the LS997 8.0 modem?
8) What is the best way to flash the SYSTEM and MODEM? kdzwriter, LGUP "dl partition", "fasboot flash"?
Thank you guys for your work and time!
An LS997 on Oreo is on ARB1 and therefore completely locked down and unrootable, so I don't think anyone has made any dumps from it. No idea which specific portion causes the ARB to change.
I would not recommend cross-flashing a modem unless someone else reported it to be working. You have a much higher risk of completely losing all cellular signal. Does your phone in its current state have signal reception problems?
The rootable LS997 on ARB0 is generally assumed to be stuck on Nougat for stock-based ROMs, and I haven't seen anyone try to flash any stock US996 Oreo parts, so that could be quite risky. If you really want Oreo or higher, then you should consider looking at the LineageOS-type ROMs.
For more things on the LS997, I've written up a bunch of general information in this post on the V20 Subreddit.
how to check ARB status?
nevermind, i got it back how do i confirm ARB?

As far as I know, only the H918 (software version H91810p or later, includes all on Oreo) and LS997 (software version LS997ZV8 or later, includes all on Oreo) have ARB enabled. So you don't have to worry about it on any other model, including the US996. Or did you actually cross-flash the US996 Oreo KDZ onto the LS997?

I did cross flash my LS997 with US996 10f kdz

Is it 10f or 20f (your screenshots show 20f)? It's certainly interesting to see US996 stock Oreo cross-flashed onto an old LS997 as I have never seen anyone do it before. Do things actually function normally on it?
Anyway, everything's still on ARB0, so you can downgrade any way you like. If you haven't already done so, you'll need to be on 10f in order to do the rooting procedure.
First, I made a backup of all partitions using LGUP. I flashed the unlocked LS997 with US99620f firmware in the "Partition DL" mode via patched LGUP . I have selected all sections except aboot and abootbak. Then, in fastboot mode, I flashed recovery 3.2.2-1. I`ve tried 3.3.1-1, 3.2.3-5, 3.2.3-4, but they can't do format data correctly. Then I flashed modem, modemst1 and modemst2 from the backup in fastboot mode. Then in recovery I flashed the last mk2000 kernel for Oreo - LS997_v2.1-mk2000.zip . Then magisk 19.5
P.S. I need SDMA, so I was flashing the kernel and modem from LS997. For GSM it may not be necessary.

Very interesting. So all CDMA signal reception from your carrier and all root functions are working?
And did you use TWRP made for the US996 or LS997?
Any particular reason you went with Magisk 19.5 instead of a later version?
Also, there are a few more stock Oreo kernels for the LS997 that you could try (of course they've never really been tested since the regular LS997 on Oreo is unrootable):
- Phoenix591 has converted some of the mk2000 2.2 versions here
- ezzony's ezV2020 kernel also has an LS997 version here

it's 20f, not 10f. I had swapped toms to darn near everything on XDA but never happy with any of them. always something not working or I couldn't remove some built-in crap from so-called "stock" roms.
this last go I forget what I was trying to put on it but she stuck in the warning screen and wouldn't boot. i threw so many commands at inside fastboot mode, I am surprised it's not a paperweight. honestly, you name it, I sent it! wipe, format partition, didn't have a concern in the world, and I don't because I have a pixel 4a as the daily driver.
it should be noted, prior to this, I could never get LG Up to work as the app never recognized the phone. after fastboot mode not getting results booting into anything, I said f*ck it and put it into download mode. tiny bit of reading here and shortly after pulling the US996 20f KDZ file from LG, I had a stock RUNNING Oreo!
bro, seriously though, this Oreo runs the best that I've seen! it's smooth and fast! just a little on the heavy side. she's bloated and I need to trim the fat away. LG poisons the phone bad with all their garbage. runs like a champ though
I am extracting stock ls99720a Oreo from ls997 and will test it well before uploading it.
