Hey, need the twrp for d855 lg g3, 32gb version.
*need a file that i will be able to flash via Rashr.
(Rashr - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mkrtchyan.recoverytools)
Thanks.
Dude, this has been the biggest news regarding the G3 for the last few days..... How can you miss it? It's the file that matters (the bumped TWRP version), the method if installing it doesn't.

This IS the one and only way and to install a "simple" recovery on G3 as of now since the bootloader is not unlocked on D855.
Do not attempt to flash anything else and risk bricking your device.
Friendly advice: Spend some more time on this forum reading the various threads and you'll realise what Bump! is and why we don't go for a "simple" recovery.

haha, what do you expect? It can't be any simpler? Bump is the only way you can flash a recovery image on the G3.
All bump is doing is replacing stock recovery with a special version of TWRP that can bypass the bootloader, which is pretty much exactly what any normal flash of TWRP on a device other than a nexus is like (except the modifications to TWRP will be different or unnecessary depending on how the bootloader of the particular device is locked).
judging from your reaction it seems to me that all you know is nexus devices? You need to fast learn about how real devices work where things are a little more hacky to bypass securities that OEM's put in place.

TWRP with the bump modification IS a simple recovery with a boot.img tweak that allows the file to pass the signature requirement for the encrypted bootloader of the G3, thereby allowing the phone to flash the file.
But you are more than welcome to come up with your own solution. I wish you the best in your endeavours!

Is the phone rooted as well? Have you made any other modifications to the phone?
the update wont flash through twrp since its a custom recovery. (thats what I know)
anyways, assuming that you have your bootloader unlocked and a custom recovery installed, why dont you just do a backup of ur current rom and flash a new custom rom like viper or insert coin. they provide the latest updates.

Hi,
Please use the original thread here --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729439
Hi,
Sorry if this is a silly question. How do I go about installing CyanogenMod on the d855? I had a OnePlus One and had to return it due to a fault but loved CyanogenMod and want to use it on the G3.
I rooted the phone and installed bump as I believed this was the only way to install TWRP on this device. However I realised i could only installed Bump'd ROMS . I therefore put it back to stock as I want to use the official install. How do I go about installing this? I may have the wrong end of the stick. Any help to point me in the right direction would be appreciated.
I am sorry if I am asking a daft question, this is all new to me, please help
Thanks
Root via Purpledrake > Install TWRP via Bump! method > Install CM12 .zip
That's the only way, and the good way. Google on how to install TWRP via Bump!. Links are seriously right here on XDA. Bump! in in the OG Dev section with a very clear explanation.

Thanks for your reply. I managed to root and install bump and I then tried the install from the CyanogenMod website which didn't work. This is where I am struggling. I wanted to use the official install.

You can also just flash the TWRP.img with Flashify when once rooted.

Flashify.. God.. If you're using flashifhy and something happens, you're on your own. Only an idiot who is incompetent of using a few adb commands use spoonfed programs like Flashifhy. I never, and especially to newbies, suggest the use of Flashify.
Please OP, for the sake of solving your own problems: stay 10 foot away from programs like Flashify.

Dude are we talking about the same Flashify? It works perfectly for flashing and backup/restore of recovery`s and kernels in .img format. Can`t imagine users having issues with it unless unless for the incompetent idiots you we`re refering to
At my friend's G3. I suggest to flash it with Flashify and He hadn't got any problem. It's easier for newbies flashify, OP you can go for it
Sorry for the nooby question. I am a little familiar with rooting and such but have been in Samsung world with TMo for 3 years. I just got an LG G3 (still TMo, D851) that has already been updated to Lollipop v 5.0.1 (v20b). I have found the one-click root by avicohh, so I am comfortable with that. I have read everything I can find and just want to make certain of one thing. Is it correct that we CANNOT flash TWRP while staying on Lollipop? Do I really have to downgrade the software, then root, flash TWRP, and then upgrade back to Lollipop? Thats what I've read but I am hoping someone can tell me that is not true. I need some good news!
Thanks to everyone for the help and support.

No because the 851 variant is the only variant with an unlocked bootloader. You don't have to do anything except get the 851 twrp recovery img and flash it..

Thank you very much for the response. So can I just use Flashify to get current TWRP? (the phone is rooted!)? So the T-Mo bootloader is different than other variants? My confusion comes comes from this quote below...
"I saw a lot of questions of G3 users about how to install Twrp after the root, so I will explain briefly:
For now, if you are on stock lollipop you can't just flash Twrp via flashify etc like the old days in KitKat, but you can follow this guide over here."
that is a direct quote from this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-root-lg-firmwares-kitkat-lollipop-t3056951. It is true that that statement came from the General LG G3 forum, not the T-Mo forum. If I can just do Flashify or TWRP Manager and keep on going, that would be great. I guess I don't know exactly how I would flash it? Thanks again. I just need a little more clarification. After a couple years I just figured out Samsung procedures! Now starting over with LG procedures. THANK YOU FOR THE HELP.

Flashify still works in lollipop, I know cause thats how I got TWRP on my device and I have done it more than I can count. But I suggest you go to TWRP's official site and download their latest .img for the D851. Put that on your phone external SD then use Flashify to flash that img. Sometimes flashify does not have the most current TWRP img for the device when you download it through their collection.

Yes sir! Flashify worked great on the D851 with Lollipop installed. Thank you so much. I wish the info out here about the need to downgrade back to KK were a lot clearer. Evidently, T-Mo G3 (D851) users have it best. That info can be tough to find. Thank you for your support. I am good to go now!
I'm somewhat certain I already know the answer to this but I just need confirmation.
With a locked bootloader, flashing anything other than stock will be unsuccessful, right? I've just rooted my t807a and am looking to get xposed running. I just don't want to brick this thing now that I've FINALLY got it rooted.
So what's the bad? What happens if I try to flash a custom recovery? Will it flash and then not work? Will it fail to flash? Will I be bricked/caught in a bootloop?
Right off the bat, let me make one thing abundantly clear: I do not care if I trip Knox. I assume the warranty is voided as soon as I take a new device out of the box so I really don't care if Samsung or AT&T finds out that I've been misbehaving.
In case it matters:
Model: SAMSUNG-SM-T807A
Android version: 5.0.2
Baseband version: T807AUCU1BOD4
Kernel version: 3.4.39-4727547
Build number: LRX22G.T807AUCU1BOD4
Device Status: Custom
Okay I'm no genius, but maybe do a search on using the app flashify to flash custom recovery (twrp) ......obviously the right file for your device.
I've used thus before on other devices and it work well but do your research . Flash at own risk.

DO NOT flash a custom recovery or kernel on a bootloader locked device!
Unless you want a nice brick.
If you want xposed use Flashfire.

Just to make sure I understand what you're telling me: even with a locked bootloader, it should be safe to use Flashfire to apply the xposed .zip? I'm not familiar with Flashfire yet, so I'm off to educate myself.

Modifying or flashing a custom rom is fine, the bootloader doesn't really care, neither does knox seemingly.

Having trouble finding documentation on this device's partitions, which are (it seems) not quite the same as most Android devices. To make sure I can recover from (for example) a bad ROM flash, what should I backup? Is flashfire the thing to use for making such a backup?
You can use Flashfire to make a backup, but it's not going to help you in a no boot situation. Be very careful what you flash. Some things such as xposed can leave you in a no boot situation if incorrectly flashed.
My first port of call would have been capturing the ota for backup purposes. Unfortunately that is probably out of the window now you have rooted.
There is apparently a way to get kies/smart switch to redownload the firmware, so I'd be going down that root first.

If I can boot to recovery, won't I be able to access the flashfire backup on my microsd card? As long as I don't try to flash a custom recovery, shouldn't I always be able to work from that backup? Or does a flashfire backup need the flashfire app to be useable?

Anywhere you could point me to figure out how to do that? If I had that, I'd be golden. Hell, I'd share it with the world since for whatever reason nobody seems to have stock ROMs for the 807a.

Hey all,
I'm a bit of a nub at this, but can I boot into TWRP and root my OP3, without losing stock recovery? If I remember correctly from a while back, when I Odin'd TWRP to a Samsung device, it asked me if I wanted to install TWRP and allow system modification. If I choose not to, will I keep both stock and root?
Thanks!
I am no expert by any means, but for my Nexus 6, I could use the nexus root toolkit to boot into twrp without changing the recovery. It used 'fastboot boot' command I believe, so you should be able to accomplish the same by typing 'fastboot boot twrp.img'.

I selected "don't allow system modifications" when it came up but it kept twrp so the stock OP3 rom does not overwrite your custom recovery. Though my ota installed fine using twrp so I see no reason to use the stock recovery.

It DOES still required an unmodded + system never being mounted r/w just fyi.
I just got my oneplus 3 and I really wanna root it to be able to switch out the stock android emoji's. On my OPO I were able to temporary run TWRP to get root but on this people are saying different things. AM I able to temporary run TWRP with fastboot boot blabla and then flash SuperSU and then still have stock recovery because I really don't wanna have TWRP if I can't update using the OTA's. And emoji switcher requires root so
Or am I able to flash TWRP, Flash SuperSU and then download emoji switcher and get my iphone emojis and then update with OTA not by flashing?
