I just picked up a new g4 At&t. Pretty awesome phone. I would like to root it, But from what I can see I can only flash a "prerooted" stock image. Seems simple enough. But it looks like the only images that are out for the h810 are for h81010x software.
The software that is on my phone shows ip as H81009e
I assume that H81010a would be the newer software after OTA's. However I cannot update mine because I am using it unlocked on T-Mobile.
From what I read I can manually update using a stock KDZ or most likely a TOT file for at&t.
My question would be, Is it safe to flash the H81010a KDZ over my H1009e software?
I am new to LG and the info im finding out there is very contradictory and I couldn't find any info on h81009e.
If I am way off with what I am thinking. then please enlighten me.
Thanks.
( I did post this on the low effort root thread with no response)
Please let me know. If I can't root it. Then I will back to HTC. Just wanting to try something new.

Never heard of v09e, so far as i know an earlier version of att is 10b..if its really an att device than it should be ok flashing 10o kdz but you will be in qfuse 2, that mean you'll loose an opportunity to unlock bootloader(if it happened)

Now I'm even more confused. Its defiantly att. It has all the software and the leather back has an att logo.
So what your saying is by flashing to 10a, I would also be updating my boot loader.
Are you saying that as it sits. I may have a boot loader capable of being unlocked.
I did a quick search for qfuse but I don't know what you mean by I'll be in qfuze2.
Is there a way to check that info on my phone. Or check which bootloader I have.
Sorry for being a noob. This is my fist non htc phone in a while.

If your software version already in qfuse 2, there's no problem to flash tot file because either way you cannot unlocked bootloader anymore(as they're saying its for qfuse 0, yet it still doesn't available) but i doubt about your sw version..

So you have no antirollback, thats mean you're in qfuse 0..and i guess you're the one that came with an earlier version of att sw..
Depend on you whether you want update or not as your bootloader can be unlock(if you really,really, really wanted custom kernel or rom)..lol
Maybe @autoprimecan clear things out

Ok. Thats pretty awesome.
Of course, that opens up so many more questions. Especially since all the tutorials say it only works with t-mobile and a euro model.
I was honestly planning on stripping down the stock version. But if i can actually install a recovery and flash roms. That would be great.
I guess the problem would be all the custom roms are made for either t-mobile or h815.
Would it be safe to flash a t-mobile rom on my phone if the bootloader is unlocked?
That would be awesome considering im using t-mobiles service. Maybe i can get tethering to work.
I know ive used European roms on my phones for quite some time. But those were usually htc devices, Never a LG

hi guys im new to the lg g3 (well any lg phone) just a couple of questions
from what ive read there isnt many roms due to the locked bootloader will the bootloader be unlocked in the future?
i have the D855 uk vodafone model is they a working TWRP or CWR for the g3?
ive rooted so does this mean i can at least remove some bloteware?

Probably yes, if the @thecubed and others beat the protection (last post - http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...3-vs98510b-t2890349/post55729952#post55729952)

There is only Tethered version and I would not recommend to use it. It's for advanced users only and it's not a "real" recovery. More on http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/recovery-twrp-2-7-1-3-t2831668

Yes, you can... , or freeze it. If you will the cause softbrick, use LG Flash Tool 2014 and flash in NORMAL mode latest stock ROM you used or use LG PC Suite. After this you need to re-root it. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-unroot-ota-using-lg-pc-suite-pc-t2802286)

thanks for the replys if the bootloader doesnt get unlocked then thats going to destroy the g3 for development isnt it
is they a way to flash latest stock rom and get off the vodafone branded rom so i at least get all the latest OTAs?
Not sure I understand you question, but if you mean, whether you will be able to update the phone via OTA in the future, it depends.
If not or if it will not work, unroot your phone, install OTA and the re-root and you should be fine.
But still - all of that is already described in dedicated threads, don't be afraid to take a look around. :fingers-crossed:
As for the development - I guess when it will not get unlocked, it will be from my perspective one of the most wasted money on Android phone for many.

lol sorry what i ment is im on a vodafone branded firmware now and i wanted to flash a unbranded latest uk stock rom so it will be first to get OTA as branded firmwares can be a bit behind is it possible?
thanks again:good:
I don't think so, but someone else should confirm it.
Eg. you can download FW based on IMEI (http://lg-firmware-rom.com/download-firmware.php?f=YOUR_IMEI_HERE), not based on whether it's branded or not.
But still you have option to use the tools like LG Flash Tool 2014 and simply flash latest firmware you want (for your variant)

I wonder if someone nice can help me understand a little better re what version's of firmware I can install on my G4
My G4 is Model LG-H815 I noticed the box has TWN on it so it most likely came from Taiwan (I purchased it on ebay from Kogan) and I am in Australia on Telstra network.
Is mine classed as the international version then?
It came with V10b-TWN-XX installed on it.
After reading another thread I yesterday flashed it using version from Poland 10D H81510.kdz using the KDZ flash LG Flash Tool 2014 method
It is running fine on the above and doing that flash removed the Chinese keyboard and stuff so that was good.
I noticed after checking I am still vulnerable to the Stagefright issue so would like to find a newer rom that has this issue fixed if possible.
I am confused about all the versions of ROM's going around and was hoping someone could give me an overview of the various one and pros and cons against using them on my particular G4.
I dont mind doing a complete reinstall so keeping current data isn't important.
I would also like to root the rom (mainly so I can adjust the DPI) So some help on rooting the latest ROM would also be appreciated.
Thanks for your help.

I don't know for sure, but you could try cyanogenmod, it should have a working installerar that helps you (depends on if they made the installer for your devices)

If your model in the model report is H815, then you are safe to flash the unbranded European kdz. As I have said in other topics, as long as it's not H815T, or H815P or whatever, then it's fine to flash EU kdz on it.

The latest version that I know of is the European Open 10E.
After you flash that one using the kdz flashing method, you can check around for the rooted 10e img and flash it using low effort root method.

OK all done - all working fine..
One small issue one of the apps I use "Netatmo" will no longer install "This item is not compatible with your system" error when trying to install from the G4 or via GooglePlay on PC..
Must be some sort of region thing perhaps?
And I get "Warning current version is not avalible for user ....." error on boot up.
Any idea how to get around that?

AFAIK no way to get rid of that, but it doesn't affect any usability of the phone, so I just learn to ignore it.

Hey guys,
Does anyone know how we can get the rollback number on our devices? I was reading this thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/...wngrade-g4-t3197675/post62748057#post62748057
I guess you need to know your rollback number to do a KDZ becasue there is a chance of a hard brick. I tried the numbers highlighted below but it didn't work for Verizon. Anyone know how we could get this information?
waylo said:
This was not written anywhere specifically on the LG G4 forums that I could find. But every flash-addict needs to be warned. It is something you want to know before you continue tinkering.
Several users (myself included) have made the unfortunate mistake of attempting to downgrade their bootstack (for various reasons) to a former version.
DO NOT DO THIS (at least for the USA T-Mobile H811 version, and possibly other USA versions, per @autoprime)! It will result in a hard brick! Specifically, this results in the "Qualcomm QDLoader HS-USB port ( 9008 )" error. Connecting your phone to a PC will pop up with this active connection, but nothing else. There is no download mode. There is no publicly available fix as of yet.
This WILL happen both through KDZ restore as well as flashing bootstack .zips.
Yes, an official KDZ image can BRICK your USA phone, if you try to rollback.
This is in stark contrast to other manufacturers (i.e. Samsung), where the attempt to flash an older bootloader/modem/radio will simply fail, but your phone is not bricked.
I have conferred with @autoprime, who confirmed that with each OTA firmware release (on T-Mobile it was 10H, and now 10N), the version # increments. Flashing a lower version # will result in brick.
I have searched far and wide for a DIY fix. Without the proper firmwares in the right format, as well as the right flashing software, your phone is done and must be sent in for LG repair.
To check what antiroll-back version you are on, input this sequence in the dialer (T-Mobile and ATT) and scroll down:
*#*#244773825625#*#*
Flashing a bootstack version less than this # (through KDZ or zip) will brick the phone. You are free to flash anything equal or higher than the version listed.

If you are still on the original software version 10b, then you have v0. If you took the OTA (or flashed the KDZ) to 11a, then you have v1.
We have a new OTA out now, 12a. I'm not sure what version that one is, but I'm willing to bet it is v2, and you will not be able to rollback if you install it.

Yeah right now I'm stuck with 11A and I'm not sure what I should do. Even though my phone sucks the way it runs, I'm gonna hang in there and wait a couple weeks. See what comes out of 12A.
Well I don't believe there is a way to check or there is a known way of finding it yet. Apparently there is an APK app that reads it. Perhaps we can rip it from another rom and access the APK via the same method we do for accessing the Themes (using a launcher to do custom shortcuts).
The inability to KDZ back to original software is ridiculous. Just like 12A and the broken notifications. How stupid is it to force broken updates yet make it impossible to go back to previous backup/software. I am half tempted to just take the 12A update and force Verizon to give me another phone just to emphasize my dislike for their method of locking the system down.
Samsung just put out a new update and the oreo rooting method listed on here fails at odin.

It's fine. I was gonna be rooted only for a short time just to check those things out. It sucks not having root but I'd rather not deal with the lag from the boot image if it worked on this update that is. Maybe someone will crack this update in time cause nothings unhackable.
So is downgrading possible still or does this update block downgrading to? I haven't tried yet but if you have then save me some time

The U firmware would remove the Verizon bloatware. For example, if you left Verizon and went to T-Mobile...the U firmware of T-Mobile firmware could be installed to get the full bands for LTE coverage available. But if you are on Verizon and happy, probably not worth the trouble.
Basically forgot that I'd unlocked the bootloader and allowed the update, pretty stupid
Pretty sure that the next step from here is to flash the stock firmware, unless I'm mistaken?
Looking for any firmware for the XT1922-2 JETER model, which I think is an exclusively UK thing. Haven't been able to find any thus far which is both Jeter and XT1922-2, so would be intensely grateful if someone could help me!

That's not Jeter. It's Aljeter. There's a bunch with that model number. But helps if know your original software channel.

I dunno what to tell you, it says Jeter on the bootloader screen. Will have another go at flashing Aljeter software, but hasn't worked so far.

Some say Jeter in one line of props, then Aljeter in another. I know it's stupid. But all the ones with your model number (that I have seen anyways) are Aljeter. I could be wrong. But I don't think there is a Jeter with 3 GB of RAM

Yes just reflash latest stock firmware and you'll be good and what's your sw channel version? Like does it say reteu or something like that. There alot of models under the xt11922-2 device number.

Having some trouble, I get error messages when I try and flash both gpt.bin and bootloader.img - for both I get an error saying that the image failed validation/ preflash validation/ remote failure. Is there something I'm not doing?

You're likely trying to downgrade or have a locked bootloader, or both.

You can't downgrade if the gpt.bin has been updated which it has. Use the latest most recent firmware and everything should be fine. If the latest firmware has not been uploaded then I'm sorry to say your stuck with a bricked phone until the latest firmware is uploaded. Keep checking the link with the firmwares untill you see the latest one

Actually, after trying the whole thing over a second time, flashing each command line by line, my phone is fixed. Have no idea how if what you're saying about it being impossible to downgrade is right, but certainly not complaining. In the end, the RETGB software for ALJETER was the one that worked.

Hey as long as my guide helped you that all I care about In the end lol the biggest common issue most people have is not paying attention to the command lines lol. Glad your able to enjoy your phone. And it sounds exactly it sounds once the gpt.bin is updated you can't use a older firmware which in turn would be downgrading.
lol am I the only one who's been taking updates with unlocked bootloader having no problems?

it seems the problem people are having is after they have already rooted their devices they're trying to take an ota update. Which you can't do. Having an unlocked bootloader doesn't affect that. the reason is because the stock recovery has been replaced by twrp. In order to install an ota update when your phone is rooted you must reflash either the stock firmware of the current version you're on or just flash the new stock firmware. Or in this case accidentally using the command lines wrong lol

yes, just what I thought. unlocked bootloader doesnt change anyrhing, but having the phone system modified may do

Also, people confusing 2 different issues regarding updates.
The only REAL issue I've heard is, after flashing firmware on an unlocked bootloader, they are no longer receiving OTA updates. Maybe changed their update channel or something.

Yea that's why I've been starting to ask for sw channel version ? its been alot more helpful knowing that before anything lol. I haven't had any issue flashing stock firmware then taking an ota update its how I was able to take the latest security patch update as well as the other updates before they were uploaded on the firmware site ( I hate saying mirrors.lolinet because well darkweb has sites called that also unfortunately and there just not good lol) but that's just me lol
