[Q] GPE Unroot/Return to Stock - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
I have spent the last 7 hours trying to unroot my LG G Pad 8.3 Google Play Edition, but nothing I have tried works. The method I tried was to flash toe stock boot, recovery, and system via the Windows command line. Now, my tablet gets stuck at the "Google" logo when I try to boot it, and I get the red exclamation error when I try to boot into recovery. Does anyone have any first had experience unrooting the GPE G Pad, and can my tablet be salvaged or do I need to buy a new one?

Yes, you can at least salvage your tablet. Download latest twrp recovery, and install it in download mode. Then download the 510 ROM from the developer section onto an sdcard, insert sdcard into tablet, mount in recovery, install the ROM. You can then try again if you wish. Make changes one at a time, slowly!
There may be a different way, but this seems the easiest to me.
Why did you want to unroot?

Thank you for the tip, I'll give that a try now. And I rooted to try to install Cyanogen, but the milestone releases kept giving me the "process com.android.phone has stopped" and the nightlies couldn't connect to my Wifi.

So, I've tried flashing the 510 ROM both in the ZIP folder and in the extracted TOT file type, and am getting errors on both. Neither one will flash. Any tips?

You can't install cyanogen mod on the gpe. There are no custom Roms other than the modified stock ROM for the 510.
Let's start from the beginning... Did you install twrp 2.7.0.1? And can you boot into recovery?
Then, did you take out your sdcard and install the modified 510 ROM onto the sdcard from your computer?
Then reinstalled your sdcard to your tablet, rebooted to recovery again, mounted your sdcard, and then flashed the modified 510 ROM?

Don't forget to erase dalvik and cache before you install the rom

No, use the modified 510 stock ROM in the developer section of this forum. Using the " official" ROM won't get you anywhere.

Yes it is. But it's much easier to just sideload the update. Two threads I'd General section with links and instructions.

I don't know if you realize this, but the sideload update is 100% stock. Exactly the same thing you'll get with the OTA. Just a different delivery method.

Okay, I've tried this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448960 to restore my device to stock, and get one of two errors. Either I use the V510 dll and it displays an error saying I have to be in online mode, or I use the other dll and it doesn't flash. What am I doing wrong?

You're not doing anything wrong. This won't work for V510 running 4.4.2.

Flash the 4.4.4 update via twrp. I don't know any other way. If you don't want to do that, then post your question on the V510 update thread in the general section.

Where can I find a stock maguro zip? (GSM)

Need to return phone and have been trying to flash back factory image with no joy. The issue with phone is it can't connect to pc to send files anymore so I have to download the rom over wifi.
I have downloaded two factory tarballs from google dev, unpacked them and zipped one whole package up that failed, then used the zip inside the package which failed as well (clockworkmod flasher). So really all I need is the official ICS/JB rom in a format that CWM will flash!

[Q] Bricked? Black Screen after Splash

Hey everyone. I tried rooting using Heimdall on my Mac, but apparently did something very wrong. I can still boot into download mode, but when I turn my phone on I get the initial logo, then a black screen. Any help to get my phone back up would be greatly appreciated!

If you can still get into download mode.. you're not bricked..
Give me a little more info on what you tried to flash.... as well as what Android version you were on... and if you had or were trying to get cwm recovery on the device via heimdall..
No worries... we'll get ya back up and running... just don't get flash happy and try something until myself or another member can confirm it's right..
I'm going to assume you were following a guide for rooting with heimdall... link that guide so I can look at it..

Ok, no more flashing until I hear back from you. Thanks for the reply! I'm actually not sure which version I was on. I know, big mistake.
I initially used this guide goo dot gl/LZt2l3 but I couldn't get the terminal version, so I flashed the kernel via the frontend. It appeared to work, and rebooted, but I was getting a "samsung galaxy s2 gt-i9100" boot screen and then black. So I tried flashing back to a stock kernel I found. Now it shows the right model number, but still goes black.
Thanks again for the reply. Looking forward to getting this mess I made fixed.
Will I be able to fix this with my Mac, or do I need to try to find a Windows machine to use?

You flashed the wrong model and bootloader I believe... so it messed up you're partitions...
What you want to do is Odin a one-click from rwilco's repo...

The Heimdall one click method does not seem to support the file type that I downloaded for some reason. I can use the regular Heimdall frontend app though. Then, should I just flash all the extracted files? There are 10 or so of them.

I think you can flash all of them or just a select few... but if you can get a custom recovery on at the least... we can boot to it...push a couple zip's over and flash a rom from a safe recovery.... I'll explain more for that if we have to go that route..

Okay, I think I have good news to report. I'm booting now...basically. It's staying on the 4G screen for a long time, but eventually boots. Well, at least the first time it did. I just tried again and it stuck on the 4G screen.
I can still get into recovery though. Should I try flashing a custom recovery using Heimdall? If so, where can I get a compatible recovery?
Progress is good! Thanks!

Did you use the rooted rom... if so.. I would try to go into recovery and wipe cache and reboot to see if it boots up... also.. is it stock recovery, I can't remember what that one click comes with...
If it's stock and we can't get it to boot... then we will have to heimdall a kernel/recovery..remember our recoveries and kernel's are tied together on this device...
If this is the case.. I think we can find you a custom recovery/kernel and heimdall it and then flash a rom from it... after you push the zip's to you're internal storage..

I did use the rooted files. I'm not sure if it's stock recovery, but it looks like it. Definitely not CWM.
I tried wiping cache and rebooting, but it's still looping.

Ok... I would go to rwilco's repo and get a gb27 kernel that has a custom recovery and flash it with heimdall..
Even if it doesn't boot.. we can atleast push a rom zip and gapps to you're phone and the el26 kernel(safe kernel for flashing) and then flash the rom/gapps from it..
I can look and point you to the right kernel if you're not comfortable looking yourself..

Bad root! please help!

Hi, I managed to unlock my nexus 7 and install the latest TWRP.
But now I cant boot to the OS! It says no OS despite me not wiping that.
Within TWRP it says "no valid storage partitions found for mtp"

I lost access to my contact list via bluetooth with this?

Here's how I rooted mine with no issues so far.
MAKE SURE THAT IN DEVELOPER OPTIONS YOU HAVE OEM UNLOCK USB DEBUGGING ON BEFORE FLASHING TWRP.
Flashed
a - TWRP 3.0.0.1-M
b - boot back into recovery (TWRP) and flash BETA SuperSU v2.68
after you do this reboot your phone to make sure things are good.
I then went back to recovery and flashed the Xposed zip and boot back into phone and install Xposed APK.
if you have the time flash the no wipe tar and try my method, check your PM shortly going to send you a link to my drop box where i have all the files needed in one place.

HK HTC10 Returning to stock rom

Hi there, I'm using Hong Kong version of htc10, i tried to root it but when i flashed supersu and xposed arm64 sdk23, it comes to stuck in the system ui interface showing that: 'System UI has stopped unexpectedly....etc.' Looping in that point. So i tried wipe all data in twrp mode and reboot again, still the same situation. Then I download a TW version of stock IMG which is 1.30.708.1(Original was 1.53.708.4) and flashed it in download mode, after that i rebooted it, everything is normal again. Fresh new welcome screen.
But there are some features that i can't use such as can't receive 4G+ signal, can't receive VoLTE, even could't use battery saving mode ....etc.
So I just want to know where can I find the STOCK IMG for my HK version CID HTC__622, which is 1.53.708.4 or so called RUU for it? Thanks.:crying::crying:

I'm looking for the HK stock img as well, I've only found one which seems to have been modified so OTA no longer work. Did you have any luck?

I've found a twrp backup posted from someone else:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/how-to/stock-stock-collection-recovery-ruu-ota-t3359297/post67760253#post67760253
the working link for the download is on the next page.
this is definitely the HK rom as after a wipe the default language is HK Chinese.
only problem is OTA does not work and when trying to manually flash the OTA manually (using TWRP and stock recovery) the check on the OTA zip passes but the system check fails so it looks like system has been modified.

Rename zip file to 2PS6IMG.zip. Place on sdcard. Reboot to download mode and follow instructions. Do full backup before (SD and internal).

Once that file is in correct spot, you will see option to flash it (VOLUp to flash). Been a while since I flashed stock img. Check guide section if you want to confirm.

Please help the Hong kong community by backing up the system image and boot for 1.80.708.6 . I already provided the stock recovery file. It shouldn't take too long.

I would love to help but I've already sold the HTC 10 on already.
But with the RUU linked by purple patch you can get to stock completely. And it's so easy!

OMG, how the hell did i miss such important thing!!! I will try it right away! Thank you!!VERY MUCH!!!!
Sorry to bother you again, I put the 2PS6IMG in the external card, but it show an error message:" FAIL19 RU_MAIN_VER_FAIL os-version in android-info missing."
Maybe the IMG version that i downloaded us higher than my phone currently running? I'm running 1.53.XXX now.
Well, nevermind, I S-OFFed my htc10 and flashed the zip, now I'm using stock firmware and able to receive OTA, Thanks a lot man! You are my HERO!!
I encounter the same situation and like to return to Stock ROM, but my firmware version is 1.92.708.3. Searched over Internet and can't find the corresponded RUU. Anyone have it and can share to me?

you don't need the same version of RUU, just flash the old version. I always flash the 1.53 RUU

I assume you had unlock it, then it may already lost the warrant(not sure for this in HK), so why not s-off it via htc?
