Need Ntelos AS991 love - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know it's a regional carrier so there's not much support but I can't find anything at all out there. I'm pretty sure it's the same as the Cspire G4 but I don't know if there would be any software changes.

What kind of support are you looking for?

There are no ROMs for this phone. Would love to see CM13

Pretty sure AS991 has a LOCKED bootloader. So no CM13 unless someone built it around the stock kernel(Like the Amazon Fire 5th gen) instead of the typical AOSP/CM custom boot.img method which requires an UNLOCKED bootloader.
AS991 can only flash custom system.img's.. not a custom boot.img (kernel). The current G4 "Low Effort Root" method uses this to root G4 devices, including the AS991. I have commands for backing up your current stock system.img and flashing a rooted system.img at this post here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62028523&postcount=2
To backup stock system:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 bs=8192 skip=65536 count=509952 of=/data/media/0/system.img
To write rooted system:
Code:
dd if=/data/media/0/rootedsystem.img bs=8192 seek=65536 count=509952 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0
So you can backup your system img.. pull it to your computer than use the following thread which shows how to root/patch the stock system.img you backed up.. then flash it back to your phone to get root - http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/lg-g4-100-root-success-directives-root-t3180586
Patching your own system img is sometimes easier on less popular devices since pre-patched files don't always exist for the current software version you are using. :good:

works in a as991 marshmallow 6.0?

Does it work in a Lg G4 AS991 with marshmallow 6.0? if not is there a solution?, thanks

AS991, hmm, seems to me it is a throw off of Sprint, LS991, but with custom for different carriers, I would look into the Sprint forum.

This thread should be locked since Ntelos was bought out and is now Sprint.

Yes I suspect the same, I saw the sprint lg g4 forum but I don't see if the simple root can be applied to lg with marshmallow 6.0 , can be?
by the way don't close this threat just move it on to sprint forum, I am not so shure it is the same phone. are you?

I would think not. I had to turn in my Ntelos G4 for a Sprint G4

If you can get me your aboot image I can add Loki support. Since I don't have aboots I just white list devices till someone says it doesn't work, since worst case is it soft bricks.
I'm in the middle of reworking freegee so I can upload aboot images for proper support and better checking algorithm without having some soft brick to figure it out.
For now I'll remove all 986s from the whitelist.

Works like a charm and as for root used the Chinese root method and no funny behavior on my end :laugh:

Just use flashify to do this. Download the proper recovery for your device from the twrp website and flash away. Works perfect and is much easier.

Hello, i tried this method and this does not work on my TELUS d803 model. Tried with the bell TWRP and the rogers TWRP but no luck.
I'm getting "Loki aboot version does not match device.
I'm on rogers. I downloaded the rogers one
http://www.droidviews.com/install-twrp-recovery-on-lg-g2-running-android-4-4-2-kitkat/
I'm the one who commented on that page about the Videotron D803 phone, Autorec works fine as long as you do your homework and read about which version is compatible with your specific model.

[D680/D685/D686][4.4][BUMP] Unsecured boot.img / TWRP 2.8.7.x / Root

It's for LG G Pro Lite DUAL! You can port it to other versions if ya want.
Also the boot.img is for V20D firmware (D686 model only, install it only if You need it!)
Every boot/recovery.img needs to be BUMPED.
TWRP + unsecured boot.img
* You need to be rooted at least for the while to do it. The easiest way is to use KingRoot. You can uninstall it later and/or replace it with SuperSU.
1. Download the images and copy them to internal storage -> Google Drive
2. Turn on USB Debugging, then use Android Emulator or ADB shell to type those commands:
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/TWRP_2.8.7.x_d686.img of=/dev/recovery bs=10485760 count=1
dd if=/sdcard/unsecuredboot_d686.img of=/dev/bootimg bs=9437184 count=1
Root
1. Just flash SuperSU in TWRP.
Bugs
*everything should work
I didn't test External Storage, also I may provide sometime a AutoBUMP in TWRP so bumping the images won't be necessary.
Source: github
thanks

Is an unlocked bootloader being developed?

I know there is an unlocked bootloader for the h815, but I'm just wondering if one is being developed for any other models. Either way, anyone who is involved with developing roots and anything like that keep up the great work! Sorry if this has been asked. If it has can you please give me the link?

Yeah i installed Xposed successfully through flashfire but Xposed doesn't replace the whole entire OS it simply only overwrites a couple of files and places a few new ones. Hopefully a Unofficial bootloader unlock gets released like it did for the LG G3. Once it gets released i will definitely donate.

Magisk way of rooting - how to get boot.img?

As some of you certainly know, Magisk manager has capability of rooting system.
The needed thing is kernel image, boot.img, very the same which seats in the device.
If the stock ROM was available to download then the kernel image would be possible to obtain by pulling it out from the ROM file (preferably zip).
So where to get the stock ROM file, please?

Here is a link to the Q610TA10K firmware
I'm thinking about the LG tablet I had. No root for it so someone did the Magisk thing also. Tablet was easily unlocked allowing us to put the image in place.
For the Q7, once a boot image is modified how would you get it in place on a running ROM? Far as I know the device is still locked down.

BTW. We're talking on ROOTing the device, not unlocking.
We can root it without unlocking, I've a Huawei tablet with MediaTek too and it has been rooted by KingoRoot without touching anything else.

LGextract.exe did not work for me. Even If the boot img could be modified, as @marcdw stated "how would you get it in place on a running ROM?"
Without unlocking the bootloader this is not possible.
Kingroot, kingoroot will not work on this device atm, I've tried every method possible that's why I gave up on root on this device.
Maybe some day it will but I doubt it.

I had this problem with my q7+ I bought in Brazil where I live, it did not have Norwegian language, and I'm Norwegian. So I had to use an app; custom locale. This app needs root, but I was able to give right permission using ADB, so now I have Norwegian language. (Or any language I want).

Excuse me, where to get LGExtract.exe from?
Why haven't you managed to extract boot.img? What were the errors like?

Sorry, not gonna kick a dead horse.
Even if the boot img could be modified with magisk, there still is no way to install to device without unlocked bootloader.
And have you refferred to this method ?
What do you think of these instructions:
https://www.techdroidtips.com/lg-q7-2018-unlock-bootloader/
especially this:
In conclusion, Android versions later than lollipop come with an option of OEM Unlock in the developer options. So, its quite easy to unlock the bootloader on any latest smartphone devices. And Still, some of the smartphones may not come with this option. Hence, in order to unlock the bootloader, you need to manually do it via PC.

There is the option OEM Unlock in this device, so?

LG Q7+ is not on the list of supported devices from LG.
And mine is LM-Q610.EMW, it isn't "plus", so has it a potential?

Not on the list
However this list is extremely scarce. It seems something is wrong with it.
This is why wanted to try. The first obstacle is it is impossible to reboot into bootloader (which is needed to obtain device ID). When the command "adb reboot bootloader" is executed then the phone simply reboots into system again. (Attention: when "adb reboot recovery" is executed then it does Factory Reset!)
How to make it boot into bootloader? Is there any keys combination for it?
