[Q] Updated T-mobile G3 and now I have no bootloader - T-Mobile LG G3

Hi everyone,
I've been looking for the past hour but haven't been able to find a solution that I can follow. I forgot that I had root on my phone since I did it so long ago and never put a custom rom, I did it to just use Titanium to back up my apps. I got a notification to update my phone and clicked it in excitement without thinking. The phone just went straight to TWRP (v 2.8.3.0) and if I try to reboot into bootloader it goes straight to recovery. Even if I try and just power the phone off it goes straight to recovery. I've come back from pretty bleak situations before...but this.. I just don't even know where to start.
Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

Go here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=19229 grab which version you want. Flash in twrp and your phone is fixed. You will need to factory reset in twrp so you will lose everything on internal storage. Best of luck.

Man you totally saved my ass! Thank you so much for sharing the link!!!

I did the same thing...but how do you get the file downloaded to the phone so you can flash it in the condition its in?

your help
If you have twrp installed. You just turn mtp and transfer the file to sdcard or put file on external sdcard and insert into phone

Thanks
I did the same thing; thanks for posting this fix!

IF you too have this problem, try one of these (here &/or here) before doing this one. Those 2 save your phone at it's previous (before OTA) state and do not delete / lose anything.
This is good overall as a last resort.

Thanks very much for this additional tip -- the first link worked well for me and allowed me to fix the problem without losing all of my data/settings/etc.

[Q] HELP - Wiped the OS off of my Galaxy S3 I747

Alright, well I've come to a problem and I'm not quite sure how to fix it.
The title pretty much says it all, I've completely wiped the operating system off of my phone. There is nothing left, absolutely no data or anything. I was much too hasty and irresponsible, and I fear for the worst. I had previously attempted installing multiple ROMs multiple times using CWM to no avail so I re-rooted and switched over to Team Win. I know before installing a ROM you have to wipe your phone, well... I hit advanced wipe and within that I hit "system", went ahead and wiped. There's nothing left on my phone my phone and there are no ROMs on my SD card. I had backed up my phone before wiping but when I wiped that was also deleted. Before restarting it always warns me "No OS installed on your phone, are you sure you want to reboot?" Of course it's bricked and stays at the "Samsung Galaxy SIII" screen. I attempted putting a stock ROM back on my phone through ODIN, but a'las it didn't work (always stops at "SetupConnection"). I have nothing and there is no way for me to get a new ROM on the phone, I obviously cannot connect to my computer unless through download mode because the phone is bricked. So, what do I do? Is there any hope left for me or am I just completely screwed? The phone is less than a month old.
another option is to purchase a micro sd card and place a ROM and gapps (if required) on it, install the card and boot into recovery.
so when you connect your device to your pc, you're getting a yellow com connection in odin? what link did you follow for a stock ROM?
as long as you can still access recovery and download mode, there is hope, buddy.

Yeah, when I connect to the PC I get a yellow com connection in ODIN. I followed what is, perhaps, a sketchy looking link for the stock ROM... It's not letting me post a link because I'm a new member to the board, though I've looked over this place plenty of times in the past. Should I look for something a bit more official and retry? I don't think it's going to work. Will a ROM work, without an OS? I know that may sound silly but everything I've tried so far has failed.
here's a link to the stock firmware with root already injected: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739426
flash the tar in odin like you have been. make sure the auto reboot box is unticked. if you get a PASS after flashing, unplug the device, pull the battery, replace it and press the recovery button combo. once in recovery, wipe data and wipe cache. reboot.
lemme know if that worked, otherwise throw a ROM on a micro sd card as stated and go that route
btw, a ROM is the OS.
And also, my phone has to be rooted for a ROM to be installed, right? Well there's no guarantee my phone is still rooted since I've wiped literally everything on the phone. I like the idea of a placing it all on an SD card but that could be wasted money and I don't have very much money to spend, especially if a ROM isn't going to replace all of the needed system files which have been deleted.

I accidentally wiped my OS on my Galaxy S3 AT&T - Please Help!!!
Hello all,
I am a rookie user of smartphones and I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 AT&T. I accidentally wiped my OS leaving me with no OS. The good news is that I can still use Team Win and boot into recovery. How can I download and install a new OS? I live in a rural area with no place to go to get this fixed; so I would really appreciate any and all help on this matter. Thanks for reading

Sprint LG G2 Boot looping

hello,
This morning i was using my phone like every day, but i notice that i had no signal so i decided to restart the phone. When it restarted out of nowhere the phone started to boot loop.. i didnt do anything for it to start doing that.. after a long while trying to fix it i gave up and got into recovery and decided to clean install the rom. It did install but after 1 minute of being on the screen it would boot loop.. I download it the same rom and installed it and still kept doing the same thing.. i had a back up so i decided to install it which i did but again after 40 seconds of start up it would boot loop.. finally, i decided to use the LG Flash tool TWICE and it did work but again after a little while the phone turns off and on.. idk what lese to do??? any ideas?
Check if it displays your IMEI in the Settings. If not you should check if you've got a EFS Backup.

I've seen the question somewhere else (to use a backup from another g2) and they said, that it will boot but don't login into the network, cause you'll get a IMEI with 00000 or something like this.
Don't know a answer. I think I must send my G2 to LG and pay a lot of money IF they'll fix it.

OHH i see what you mean... I have added EFS backup to the IOroot scripts so that everyone that roots will have a copy of their EFS partitions on the computer you run IOroot from. Regardless, this current thread will still be a good "heads up" and an alternative for those who insist on using other shady root methods or for those who just want another way to back things up.
I did use IOroot, does that mean that if i connect it to the computer and try to root it again it would fix it? you think???

[Q] Stock Apps Keep Re-installing after restart?

So I unlocked my bootloader, installed TWRP and rooted my phone. Next I downloaded titanium backup and uninstalled all the apps that I didn't want like kid mode and fitbit and TV etc... But whenever I restart the phone, all the apps are reinstalled again. Never had this issue on my S4. Does anybody know what's up?

So what you're saying is that I have to flash a new kernel? If so, that's too complicated... I only rooted because I wanted to remove the bloatware stuff and leave everything else untouched. I'm kind of regretting it now.
Has anyone figured out a way to unroot and lock the bootloader again for the M8?
I understand - you're pretty new to this device and maybe to HTC's write protection they invented last year. That's ok mate.
With TWRP installed it's a very simple thing to flash the new kernel. Did you already do some flashing on these devices? I think it's more complicated to get root the first time than flashing a zip from TWRP. :good:
Anyway I'll help you there. Simply download Flars kernel and copy the zip-file to your internal SD-card. Boot into TWRP and choose the install option. Navigate to your internal SD and select that zip file. Start flashing and choose simply the defaults you get offered by the aroma installer. Finish, reboot and the write protection is gone. TB will work as always.

Thanks a trillion. But this thing was bugging me, so I said to hell with it and just installed the GPE RUU. How I don't have to deal with any of that nonsense since none of the bloat apps are installed in the first place. Now I just have to figure out how to reinstall TWRP and root again... This stuff seems a lot more complicated then just using ODIN on Samsung devices, at least for the time being while I'm still so new HTC stuff.
worked.
I'm using HTC since a couple of years and bought a S4 Mini for my daughter last year. Last week my sister stepped in with her Sony device. Don't ask how long it took me to understand and root these devices... lol.
If you need to know sth about HTC devices simply step in and pm me. But I think you'll be soon familiar with the differences! :good:

How do you flash the wp_mod.ko file you posted the link to? Sounds like it will do the trick and stop reinserting of deleted apps.

*Help* I unrooted on a rom and now I can't root my phone.

Device: LG G3
Rom: [AOSP EXTENDED V3.0] [LG G3 - D855] [OFFICIAL] [NOUGAT R9] [by MARCHETTO96]
Hey again,
So i'm running this rom right and I was reinstalling my apps onto my phone and one app I need to log into but it noticed it was running root (Snapchat). So I followed someones advice on here on XDA to fully unroot the device and I did that I fully unrooted the app from the phone and then here comes the worst part that I realized this will kick me out of recovery and i wont be able to get back in because I need to get on to recovery to re install superSU back on. So im stranded on nougat 7.1 and dont have access to root at all except for root access on developer settings but that doesn't nothing at all I re installed the app on play store but its telling me the phone is unrooted of course.
Anyone can help me out here. It would be greatly appreciated .
P.S I did get snapchat working after that method kinda did work/backfire at the same time.
Do you have nandroid backup? If yes, flash that. It will be all well.
Other hard method is to downgrade to KitKat and then root and then TWRP. ?
I do not have a back up for this ROM but I have other back ups on my phone that still works. I can't do it as well cause I neeed root to l get it to work.

Yeah thats the only thing I can't get access to TWRP. When I fully unrooted It would not let me in my recovery at all just bootloops until i take the battery out then it reboots to the system fine.
Just going to ask a hopefully obvious question that I know doesn't help but I'm intrigued... Why didn't you just unroot using the supersu app?

I did do that....now my main problem is I don't have root anymore and I can't get access to my recovery and plus I'm running an Nougat rom so I need to find a way to re-root my phone again to get it all back.
The supersu app doesn't delete the recovery on your phone so something had to have gone wrong. Either way the best bet for you I would imagine anyway would be to follow a guide to install recovery - it's been that long since I had to do it I can't be of much help but I'm willing to look into the easiest options for you if you want. There will be a way, pretty much guaranteed

I know that my recovery is still there but It wont allow me on there for some reason. But im thinking that If I factory reset the phone it would PROBABLY fix the problem but theres one risk that it could probably happen and im guessing that it will go straight into a bootloop. If you want to help me It would be great
I'll research for you mate!
Did you modify your ro.product.model in build.prop file and when supersu app asks if you want to flash stock recovery you pressed yes?
For example if you have enabled google assistant by changing your ro.product.model to pixel or pixel xl and after that unrooted and pressed yes to restore stock recovery (to get OTA to work), supersu flashes pixel recovery and thats why you can't get to recovey again.
There are ways to get your phone back to factory clean and start over.
Okay I have spent a whole day figuring out this problem but i finally managed to fix it.
So I went onto download mode
opened up LG Flash Tool 2014
Flashed an LG KDZ File managed to work after the 2nd time
10 or 15 mins later it finally worked
LG started to boot up and started loading in the apps
THEN
I rooted the phone again using this forum: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/root-twrp-marshmallow-d855-30b-t3286268
Then I finally got back onto the glorious TWRP rom.
I re-installed the ASOP rom again.
I'd Like to thank Juhkimo, Jahanzaibawan and pffcouk for helping me out. You guys got my phone back to what it was before so thanks a ton

N910P - Please Help - Tried to root and failed No Bootloader found?

I'm really hoping someone can bail me out here before I...
I have made a mess of my new (to me) Note 4. I bought it as an Unlocked GSM. It arrived booting with a Sprint screen. I have Safelink BYOP service. When I switched from my Note2 to Note4, yesterday, an ATnT sim card was used to activate it with Tracfone. Everything seemed to work EXCEPT for MMS - I could not send nor receive pictures. I read -what I thought was- clear instructions here on the forum, I started downloading and attempting to root my phone, hoping that would solve the problem, since tech support had no answers.
I followed the instructions in this post - https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/help/rooting-sprint-note-4-pj1-t3495306 . Now the phone will only boot to download mode, or I can use the up volume button to get to the program to install, restore, etc. I have tried several times - with a couple of different .tar files. This last attempt - I tried to restore it - that also failed. My old eyes can not really see the tiny text but I did see in Odin3 that 1) No MDS found 2) Systemless mode Boot img support required 3) Boot Image Patcher Failed. When I attempt to install the SuperSU, from the thread, it gives me similar errors 1) NO MDS file found 2) (under Boot Image patcher it says FAILURE / Abort after extracting Ramdisk.
If anyone could help me out, I would be most grateful.

Use that program to download the stock firmware for your phone.
Use model number: SM-N910P
Use Region: XAS
Then use Odin to flash stock firmware. All should be good then!
Added Odin! Use this version!
Once you get phone back on stock. I'll show how to root!
Thank You
Thank you so much for the reply. I have downloaded the files you put in my post. I will attempt to do these things now, but I have a question. I stayed up fighting with the phone all night. I probably did some things I shouldn't have? I realized that I was getting stupid and quit, but I did (maybe) put some other stuff on the phone that night. Should I use the Clean or wipe function in TWRP before I do anything else???
Yes, I can boot to downloader or to TWRP. The phone (on its own) is now stuck trying to load with the Note 4 splash screen - but I can boot to either with the vol +/- buttons.
SamFirm did not work. It said Unable to fetch... please check data or enter manually.

First - THANK YOU all for the assistance.
Yesterday, none of the suggestions were working, but I kept at it. I was finally able to install the most current Stock tar that I could find. This phone had updated to the most current version available for the phone - it had Marshmallow 6.01. NOW, the red and yellow tamper errors appear to be gone from the Note4 splash screen - BUT, it boots to Sprint Activation so it won't fully load to OS. I read a post about removing the Sprint Hands Free Activation, but it gives two ways of doing so. 1 requires having a rooted phone (I am assuming it is not rooted now?) and the other uses ADN Connect, and I am not sure what that is.
I'm not really sure what to do from here? Any assistance appreciated. Can I start from step 1 of the original post to install SuperSU now?

Well, the sun is about to come up - again - but I think I got it! This has been a learning experience to say the least. I wasn't really planning a crash course in Android, but thank you to all who responded. And to :Samep too!
I think I get it
So, after a little rest I have a Note 4 with the most current stock tar. When I left it, at sun up, I had a slightly older stock version and rooted through TWRP 3.0.2.0 and rooted with the latest version of SuperSU. I spent a couple of few hours continuing to read and figure out how I would get it updates. If I could ask just a couple more questions??
If I put the TWRP 3.0.2.0 will the tamper warning come back to the flash screen?
Can I put TWRP on without rooting with SuperSU?
If not TWRP - is there a way to do a full backup without it? I REALLY want to get a good backup of what it has now - a fresh install of the latest 6.01 - and nothing else.
Thank you again.

So, after a little rest I have a Note 4 with the most current stock tar. When I left it, at sun up, I had a slightly older stock version and rooted through TWRP 3.0.2.0 and rooted with the latest version of SuperSU. I spent a couple of few hours continuing to read and figure out how I would get it updates. If I could ask just a couple more questions??

I pm you also. Read it first, make sure I'm right.
Then download attached file samfirm.
Here's it's original post, to show how to use, https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/tool-samfirm-samsung-firmware-t2988647
Use that program to download the stock firmware for your phone.
Use model number: SM-N910P
Use Region: XAS
Then use Odin to flash stock firmware. All should be good then!
Added Odin! Use this version!

Sorry I don't get on here much lately. Just seen your post.
Without knowing exactly what you did. I'd say you lost your unlock. If you had an unlocked sprint phone. And tried nougat. I believe i remember that upgrading to nougat was messing up people's EFS partition. And that's where the unlock happens. Did you make a backup?
I always tell everyone, the most important thing you can do is have a full working backup of every partition.
Hope that sheds some light
