Hi everybody! Since I'm from Brazil, please, ignore any possible write mistakes I certainly should make. =]
I wanna share my experience with my OG. As I hate any branded firmware, I looked for an unbranded one, but, the only one I found from the huge topic posted in our forum was a Vivo branded .kdz. I was pissed off with this situation, because I had a branded firmware and it's wifi signal, compared to a CM10.2 based ROM, was mediocre. It wasn't stable enough and keeps dropping every time, annoying me. So I was forced to use a CM10.2 based ROM until today, wich I don't like much (believe it or not, I prefer all that trash that comes with the original firmware), then, after long nights awake looking for a solution, here we are! I finally solved it =] so, let's begin.
I WILL NOT POST ANY LINKS. GOOGLE AND XDA ARE YOUR FRIENDS. EVERYTHING I USED IS EASILY FOUND.
DOWNLOADING FIRMWARE
1. For no mistaken firmware downloads, I discovered a good tool called B2B LGMobile Support Tool V1.4.9.0 CRACKED BY OOXTCOO. All you have to do is install it then copy the files in CRACK folder to C:\ProgramData\LGMOBILEAX\B2B_Client and replace what it asks.
2. Open B2BCheckApp.exe, write whatever you want in login and password fields, choose your country. Press OK.
3. Click in Applicantion & Download, then Download S/W firmware for cellphone.
4. Choose a country you want, write your phone model (E975, E977, E970, LS970...), click in the magnifier (IMPORTANT), then it you give you choices of branded firmwares and one choice for an unbranded one for each country (usually the one the name of the chosen country and it's abbreviation), for example, BRA/BRAZIL is the unbranded version.
5. Double click on the result shown below, choose a path to place it, then click Download.
6. It's usually compressed in a .zip file, so, when the download finishes, uncompress it, you'll get a .tot file.
FLASHING
1. You now have the firmware downloaded. So, you'll need two more files: LGNPST and LGNPST_LS970.dll. Both you can get links and the tutorial how to install LGNPST and register the .dll in [REPAIR] TeenyBin - Softbrick Quick Fix / Bootloader Unlock [E971, E973, E975, F180*].
2. After downloaded and installed all, just follow the tutorial to flash the firmware.
OBSERVATIONS
1. For brazilian users: I'm using the BIN_LGE977AT-00-V10b-SCA-XXX-MAY-27-2013+0 firmware and it's MUCH better. Unbraded, wifi stable and it keeps all originality of junk apps that comes installed in it. If you wanna a bigger wifi signal, more stable and keep phone originality, this is what you are looking for =] otherwise, just install PAC rom and be happy.
To download it: csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/svc/ezls/MESSW/LGE977/BRA/SWP/3/BIN_LGE977AT-00-V10b-SCA-XXX-MAY-27-2013+0.zip
2. There's another method I haven't tested to flash .kdz, .tot, .bin, .whatever: is to use a tool called LGFlashTool and LGE970_20121005_LGFLASHv141.dll, both easily found googleing them. There's a tutorial how to use it too. Just follow it. I read there's some kind of incompatibility with the TeenyBin file, but it seems to be ok with all other files.
3. The program used to download firmwares can be used to download ANY LG firmware. Just search for the model you want.
That's it. Any questions I would be glad to answer. DO NOT PM ME =]
Falae Gabriel, to com problema para encontrar os arquivos .BIN/.TOT não acho em lugar nenhum, nem esse que colocou o link está mais disponível, queria instalar esse que vc recomendou. To precisando de um help seu
Hello everyone, I need help today, use the LGUP with my new LG K10 K420n and I did not realize that the box was marked REFURBISH with what to start, I ask the Google account with which I previously synced the K10 and , Since I deleted all of my information in Google, it turns out that it does not find the account and does not let me finish the start with what is not brick but as if it were.
I have the smartphone registered in LG, I received it in ORANGE Spain when making a portability from another operator, I have the invoice in which it is stated that it is my property, well, it is as if I had "found it in the street" that There is no information on the subject because it is new, it applies Google as a security measure against the continued thefts of smartphones that are occurring and from what you see Google has not thought that there are owners of mobile phones that, once in a hurry, Wrong and screw up the flash of their smartphones.
Would there be a colleague who could help me with some idea or indication of what I have to do to return it as I had it when I was given it ???.:crying:
Thank you in advance to all and especially to those who get me out of the well.

Simply reflash the ROM With refurbish function, it will format data partition, or make hard reset
Hablo Español, si hay alguna duda, P.M.

Put flash rom again is useless. even hard reset !!!
The problem occurs after the first configuration, internet access via wifi or sim network, google updates of control here and the phone asks for the old account, if you are not able to put, you do not remember, do you have to recover, if not set with sim, but with wifi network, this is not needed. Phone blocked by google!
colegas necesito con extrema urgencia la rom del blu 4.0m a090l, ya probe con la flash que esta en la plataforma de needrom y el equipo me quedo con dos detalles, no levanta cobertura y el equipo se apaga cuando esta en reposo. cabe destacar que le realice el flasheo al equipo xq tenia problemas con la camara y ahora presenta fallas adicionales, ya le realice wipes correspondientes de data y cache y aun presenta los errores anteriormente descritos, de antemano les agradezco toda colaboración posible!

Amigo... Como se te ocurre hacer una solicitud de una rom en español estando en un foro estadounidense...
has la pregunta otra ves pero en ingles, yo tambien necesito la rom pero nadie me la ha facilitado. si tengo noticias te las hare saber.
Hi
im translating the request that this guy made.
he is looking for the a090L stock rom, or the modem file which can be flashed with research download, for at least recover GSM network. ( it was lost when he flashed a090 firmware, having a090L, same as me)
if someone has the flashable backup of the a090L Blu Advance 4.0 M, would you kindly giveit to us so that we can get network again?
very thank you
if you still need it you could walk me through how to find it but chances are you've moved on as I am about to with the 4.0 M
can't find any rom's, roots, or anything else for this phone

Man i have only worked with the Blu Advance 4.0M A090L. if you have the version with letter (A090) or with any other letter it won't affect the process. just make sure it's A090.
Now i'll make a resume of the process. you can check all what we are doing in the Magisk thread here in XDA (https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445). make sure to thank them if you rooted successfully. you probably know that there's no way to root this phone with conventional methods. So i was about to break my head when i found how to root it. Still this is all posible thanks to the Magisk developer.
As a disclaimer, remember that everything you do starting here is under your own responsibility.
The process consist on patch the boot partition of the phone with the root files instead of the system partition as all the root programs usually do. The system partition of this phone is impossible to root.
You will have to find the boot.img file either by downloading the firmware and extracting the file or googling it (it is safer to download the firmware and extract it than to download the single file).
Here the site where i downloaded mine: https://www.needrom.com/download/blu-advance-4-0-m-android-6-0/
NOTICE: If you are going to download the firmware, make sure it's the same version of the firmware that you have ( i mean, A090x). maybe if you flash a different boot file something could go wrong. (it didn't happen to me, but just in case)
After have found the file you must transfer it to the phone either to the Phone Storage or to an MicroSD. We will patch the partition through Magisk Manager (An apk) then we'll transfer it to the pc in order to flash it by fastboot to the phone. Magisk Manager will act as Superuser Manager. All done if you are here.
There's a big diference between Magisk and other Root Apps such as Kingroot. Magisk root it's called systemless, wich makes it undetectable for some apps if you wish so. however some apps are so old that won't detect this root even if you want them to. that's why me, as a personal decision, choosed to switch to normal root instead of this. (i really liked Magisk, but i wasn't able to use some old apps that i needed.)
As i said that was a brief resume of the process, if you want something more detailed ask for it, i'll be pleased to help you. (besides the detailed instructions, i would upload screenshots for help you).
I will attach the magisk manager apk and a platform_tools .zip wich contains the updated fastboot file for flash the boot.img
So this is it. i really expect you to don't go through troubles while rooting. Good look!!:fingers-crossed:

If you are using a sim card you would just have to pull out the card and there would not be any puk code ( this is how i do in my country, it could not work on the states but you can try) About the files, there is no problem if you download them by your own. I just added them here to avoid you to waste time.

El lanzamiento del Pixel Watch ha marcado oficialmente el lanzamiento del Wear OS 3, ahora sabemos cómo funcionará la nueva versión del sistema y se esperan las primeras actualizaciones de los relojes Fossil a partir de este mes.
Dejando de lado las controversias en torno al hardware del Pixel Watch, estamos de acuerdo en que el software del reloj es algo que se está buscando, y aunque Wear OS 3 ha estado con nosotros durante un año desde el lanzamiento del Galaxy Watch 4, el Pixel Watch es el acercamiento a un Wear OS 3 "puro", siendo el referente en wearables como los teléfonos Pixel para Android.
And blah blah blah aside, I think you can create a system dump of the Pixel Watch, just like they've done with other watches in the past. Unfortunately there are no factory and OTA images and the Pixel Watch only supports wireless ADB natively due to being based on Android 11. How possible is it to get a dump of the Pixel Watch?
Please.
Maybe helpfull to get some infos about folders and files...
Maybe lets start with 1 or 2 folders... example:
Code:
/system/priv-app
Is it possible to backup with ADB to PC?
Something like
Code:
adb pull /system/priv-app
?
If not...
Code:
ls -a1l
This Linux Command still work?
Thanx in advance.
Best Regards
Meanwhile few partitions are dumped, look into this Thread:
Pixel Watch successfully bootloader unlocked
Shiny Quagsire has successfully unlocked the Pixel Watch's bootloader via the pogo pins (which ended up being USB like people suspected)

system.img I can easily extract under Windows with 7Zip Tool.
I have no idea how to extract files from:
Code:
vendor.img
product.img
system_ext.img
Maybe somebody can help? Please.

I managed to get a dump of the Wear OS 3 Preview arm64 emulator from Android Studio, maybe it will help. There wasn't much I could do other than ask for help with the people working on the system dumps, unfortunately I couldn't do much more so I've decided to buy the watch.
There may be something of interest:

Hi, I have a Samsung galaxy a13 and i want to install lienage os in it, but in device list galaxy a13 is missing.
I'm waiting on it as well
You Can try to find unofficial builds of lineage os and similars custom roms, but the lack of custom recoveries for this device can make the process far from easy. Since most of the time you may want to install twrp on it to make the process smoother.
I'm waiting for this too
I'm still waiting for the custom rom for galaxy a13 4g since the system that is not very compatible with its hardware is not stable, however I wonder if lineage will have the ram plus or virtual ram for you
I'm from Mexico Galaxy A13 4G with 128GB of storage
I'm waiting for TWRP for the A13 (SM-A137F) and then, hopefully, the lineage OS is available and also important is a root solution to clean the device from unnecessary apps (google etc.) , install afwall (a firewall) and other important apps to have control over the device. Now the device has control over over me (because of google).

mi verdad el sistema no va con el hardware
mis una lastima que no se como programar o como hacer la rom especial para el celular creo que solo los programadores saben hacerlo
Mod translation:
my truth the system does not go with the hardware
It's a pity that I don't know how to program or how to make the special rom for the cell phone. I think only programmers know how to do it.
I don't understand why there isn't just a generic lineageOS you can install onto any device. Why do we have to wait for someone to create a 'special' rom? Or maybe I'm just retarded and I'm just not finding the right tutorial?

a menos que seas programador y como hacer la rom para el dispositivo especial si pero en ese caso solo tienen que hacer una rom especial con la base del sistema ya lista para modificarla o armarla por asi deirlo para el dispositivo en concreto ya que no todos los celulares funciionan igual
Mod translation: unless you are a programmer and how to make the rom for the special device yes, but in that case they only have to make a special rom with the base of the system already ready to modify or assemble it, so to speak, for the specific device since not all cell phones work the same

I get that. But at the same time, there is a limited amount of chipsets and cpus that are available. And, afaik, the lionshare of android phones run arm. There are generic linux kernels for x64/x86 that can be used on any system. Sure, they are not optimized for a particular setup, but they can still be used.
Most of these phones: https://www.gsmarena.com/results.php3?sChipset=85 have the same exact hardware, just slightly different configuration. A rom for one of those phones should work fine on this one. I'm just not keen on being the test dummy.
There's translate.yandex.com if for some reason you are unaware of such websites.
