Hello everyone.
I have issue with my lg l70.
I recently tried to install custom rom because i got angry with bloatware (it is rooted and i deleted some of for me useless sys apps) and restriction to 4.4.2 os. I wanted to put 5.0+ or even 6.0 on him custom rom.
The problem is that this device is not supported on cwm and i tried to flash it with some img file so i can make cwm work for my device and hopefully update phone with custom one. I ended up with soft brick. I can use phone normally but since then i cannot do factory reset because it pops up with purple error screen.
If you can help me solve some stuff i would be very pleased.
So here are the things i would like to do:
I want to flash it back with all standard apps and roms and whatever else i want to have clean phone like it was when i bought it without purple screen on hard reset.
Second thing that i want is to put custom rom on it.
Hello,
Since you have installed the wrong recovery IMG you can either search for a stock recovery for your device and flash it (on the phone or by PC), find a custom recovery specific to the device or look up tutorials on porting a custom recovery for the device, Good luck!

Thanks ive fixed it.
Ive used Lg Flash tool 2014 and D320n10c_00.kdz (searched it on goole and dl it.)
Now since ive unbricked it i will try to put a custom rom. I am not sure how but i hope i will not brick it again
No problem, glad you were able to get your device back! Make sure to make a backup through recovery to be able to revert if anything goes wrong. Good luck installing custom Roms

Hi everyone,
I was playing around with the app Secret Codes from the F-Droid repo. The first code that I try was something related to updating v500's firmware (i don't really like the Stock ROM, I'm waitin for CM first stable build. It suddenly rebooted into Philz recovery and it keeps booting into recovery every time. There's no way to boot normally.
I am on a rooted v500, with Philz and TWRP recoveries flashed in it.
This poor stupid fool would need some help.
Thanks a lot.

How, when, where?!?! I can't find it. Thenks.
My current situation is as follows:
My G Pad is in an eternal loop into recovery. Philz recovery to be precise. I do not have the drivers for Win 7 so I have to sideload CM or anything I wan't to copy to the sd. I sideload CM's last nightly but it doesn't install at all. It, apparently, requieres Aroma file manager. I sideload it too, install it and execute it but the only thing this file manager seems to do is to copy/cut/paste/create new folders... but not flash zip files.
I've changed the storage to 0 but it just won't work either.
I'm super stuck. Any help is very welcome.
in case you want to restore back to full stock (recovery and rom) use the lg mobile support tool. Take a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2590185 or here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2471370

I couldn't be more grateful. You unbricked my heart!
Hi, I have rooted my device and installed a custom recovery. But that's it, haven't installed any new ROM, and still have the stock one witch it came with.
Today I received an update message, so I downloaded the new update, and as it should be, it requested a reset.
After the reset, the device boot himself into the recovery, ans apparently refuses to boot into the new rom, or anywhere but the recovery.
I performed a full wipe, and did a system restore. And still it always boot into the recovery.
Its a "Team Win" recovery v2.6.3.2
Help please.

I dont remember man...
I last time I rooted a device it was a Galaxy S2, and I cracked opened the **** out of him, and something like this never happened to me..
As I told, I did a system restore, why it still doesnt boot anywhere beyond the recovery?
One more thing,
After I manage to turn it off, it starts immediately as I plug in the power, but stops on the "Logo" and with this title in the up right corner: "Secure boot error! Cause: Device Unlock, so Boot Success"
Thats it... got this message and doesnt boot... After I unplug the power, it boots into recovery, and only then (whie unplug) I can order it to power off.
Iam desperate..
Ok, now I think I am truly Fckd up...
I accidentally deleted the only restore file I had... witch didn't quit helped me the one time I launched it.. but anyways, now even this one is gone.
So now I stuck with god know what system.. (I did launched the restore, bit it didnt helped).
I do have a working recovery, and thats it. Please help me restore the device to fully stoke.

Not sure. I was thinking Mahdi or Cyanogenmod. A complete ROM. If the 4.4.2 is a complete ROM, then yes. The update you are trying won't affect the recovery, correct?

Yes.. the update didnt effected the recovery, and from my experience it shouldnt... (the update is for the ROM, witch was stock)
Thats why I didnt install a custom ROM from the beginning, I wanted a rooted device, but for now I wanted to stay with stock ROM. After receiving an update message, I didnt think for a second that the root and the custom recovery will effect the update...
Maybe this update had something to do with the recovery... and because mine is custom, I have this issue...
Iam not an expert in the LG field, so Iam not familiar with those effects, the update caused...
Can you please look at the installation guide in the link I gave, and check if it is doable on my device.
Thank you for the help! :good:
I would like to update that I followed the instructions from this link: (ROM) OFFICIAL 4.4.2 V500 Update & Go back to 4.2.2!, and now the tablet is back alive!

Please update the post title and add "Solved".
Ok guys I am a noob (also new to these forums) and I'm having a lot of trouble with my phone. The other day, I rooted my phone using towelroot and confirmed it using root checker. then, I downloaded ROM manager as advised by a friend. i followed the instructions and installed Clockworkmod Recovery onto my AT&T Galaxy S3. Feeling I was finally ready to install a ROM, i tried to download Cyanogenmod 10.3.1 only to have it be "downloading" for over 14 hours without it completing. From there, i did some research and decided to utilize the Cyanogenmod Installer. it seemed to work perfectly, even showing the cyanogenmod logo under when my devicec turned on, until it told me to reboot my device. i entered clockworkmod recovery mode to officially reboot it. when i selected "reboot system now" it said "Root access possibly lost. Fix?". i was given the options to say "No" and "Yes - Fix root (/system/xbin/su). no matter which one i try, my phone boots to the stock touchwiz OS. I have installed and reinstalled both superuser, superSU, and ROM manager to no success. What am i doing wrong?
Try flashing Philz Touch via Odin and use that to flash a custom ROM.
From what I recall, CM ROMs are already rooted.

CM is already rooted? What does that mean? I have a feeling that I will be unable to flash any ROMs due to my "possible loss of root access." Thank you for your patience as I am a noob and am very stressed out as this is my only phone.
I see two areas that are potential problems for flashing that rom. If it took 14 hours to download, its highly likely a corrupted download. But also, you may be on too new firmware. Cm uses asserts in the updater-script to check that you have the right base firmware/bootloader build. They dont update this so when newer firmware is released it will no longer flash because the script doesn't see it as allowed.
Anytime you have issues flashing something in recovery, you should copy the recovery log to sd. This will tell you what happened. I suspect it simply didn't flash, but without the log, theres no way we can tell what happened.
Also, you do not need to be rooted to flash anything from recovery. Just flash the recovery, then flash a rom from there. Nearly all roms you will ever see are already rooted. Non rooted roms are very rare and are generally only used as an alternate way to revert to stock.
I dont use cwm, but if im not mistaken, it seems to always ask to fix root. I dont know why, but I see people ask about it frequently.
I use TWRP, so try that, or philz as suggested by audit13. Just watch the flash progress for any errors and copy the log.
Hi all!!!
I am starting this thread because after searching I am still puzzled about this bumped thing.
I am new to LG G3 and have just recieved my phone back after bricking it few weeks ago. I am now more aware of how easy Lg is to brick. so before I jump into rooting again I want to know
exactly what is going on.
some Q:
what does bumped do?
Does it need to be bumped?
Can I get back to stock without bump? or with it?
before I used drake root them flashed twrp in flashify work fine then i flashed ota stock and got bootloader error. no download, no recovery.
Dont want to go there again
My Phone Model: D855 soft:V20f-twn-xx
Thanks
Bump! Bump!
Bump is how we trick the bootloader Sri that we can install custom roms and kernels.
When you are rooted do not take ota's. You have learned the hard way what can happen when you do
Thanks for reply! But what if we don't use bumped twrp for recovery and flash normal twrp recovery & ROM like a normal device?? Does this make it impossible to go back to stock or something??or will it break the boot loader??
You must use bump or you will end up in a boot loop
I think I may have done the same thing with my install of TWRP (a month or two ago). I have TWRP 2.8.0.0 installed, but how can I tell if I have the bumped version? If I don't can I install the bumped version using Recovery without getting stuck in a bootloop? If not, is there to uninstall TWRP and then install the bumped version?
Yes, install the latest twrp for your device in recovery.
Thanks ... all good, now have a bumped version of TWRP installed.
Hi... The bump stuff is something that make me confused too... In my old Galaxy S3 we just have to install custom recovery and start flash roms...
However, in my G3, i just install flashify, flash recovery from flashify and start to flash roms normally... Never understand what bump stuff is and never got a bootloop. Flash lots of roms without problem. If you dont to simplify the process just install flashify and start flashing roms you want
flashify isn't simplifying anything. It's bottle feeding you. It's making you dependent to Flashify. It's making you no nothing about your phone, adb commands, Bump, custom recovery etc..
If something breaks and you end up in a bootloop, let's see what flashify is going to do for you. If you know your adb commands and fastboot commands you know how to push zip files to your file or reboot into recovery/download mode from the terminal and much more.
I have an LG g3 d850 and I made it bump. I see in many forums many opinions about the bump, among them that you can only flash roms previously bumped, but I just flicked my cell phone a lollipop rom that did not say I was bumped and it's all good. I will be free to flash any rom of any version (either MM and then download to lollipop) without problems? In my Note 4 I only had to flash the rom according to the bootloader version and it worked all right! But I see that everything is difficult with the process of bump the cell phone. I do not see many roms "bumped" in the forums and I feel limited and I think that if it is not bumped I can not flash it? it is right? I have some doubts
Not my work but it works now.
How to

what about the hardware keys? do they work with moar rom and this kernel or do we need virtual hardware keys?

Kernel fixes hardware issues
and if I'm on note 5 moar rom with patch.... no issue flashing right?
Sky-high made us a kernel? Sweet sadistic smiles, success! So happy. Anyone know if it'll work like the LP patch did for note roms, or does more need to happen first? Or do people just need to start trying and report back?
-edit-
Clicked the link and saw it was a note 5 Rom. What can I say, I was excited!

Oh I'm setting everything up right now for the flash! I'm so excited. Once I realized you linked to a note 5 Rom most of my questions got answered. My favorite part, the kernel was posted on my bday.
i tried wiping and clearing cache then flashing the rom and the kernel. nothing actually happens to my phone. i end up on the same home screen and apps i had installed on moar 5.1.1 with note 5 patch.
any ideas why wiping my phone doesnt work on twrp 3.0.0.0?

Update your TWRP.
https://dl.twrp.me/zenltespr/
yea I tried doing that with Odin and it would freeze mid way. I also tried flashing a twrp update zip file on twrp and that didn't work either.
you think I should flash with flash fire?
bricked my phone by trying to flash newer version of twrp with twrp manager
been trying to flash unbrick tar and pit file to get back up and running but its not working.
any help is much appreciated
fixed the brick by flashing new recovery in Odin, now on 3.0.2. still can't get the phone to wipe out install new rom and kernel

Have you checked for root with root checker? I have lost root access a few times in the past?
yea I just checked with root checker and I have root access.
I've never had this happen to me... weird
anything else you can think of?

Last thing I can think of is when opening TWRP the first time. It asks if you want to make the system 'read only'. Did you select No?
I never got that message when I flashed twrp 3.0.2 to unblock... how do I make it show up?

Not sure. You can click mount and see what is mounted. I am not sure that will work. I am not sure exactly what you are trying to wipe, but mount the items you are attempting to wipe and make sure the read-only is unchecked.
Try this:
Check to see if oem is checked
Re-root via root tar/odin
twrp 3.0.0.1 from edge files post in general
Backup stock
Wipe
Flash Moar
Don't reboot
Flash skyhigh kernel
Flash xposed(don't have to)
Reboot
Allow it to boot loop a couple time (from sky kernel)
Give 5-10 minutes to boot
I just did it with no issues and I've personally had more luck with 3.0.0.1 than any of the others.
heres my issue...twrp doesnt do anything for me (all versions) whether i wipe or install
so i used flashfire to flash the rom and the kernel at once and it finally displayed aroma installer (wouldnt get that in twrp)
however, after it in stalled i got stuck on boot screen
the only fix for this was flashing unbrick aok3 tar file which brought me to stock
i put on twrp as a recovery again starting fresh unrooted and it still doesnt respond to any of my commands
i think i will try flash fire on stock one more time and see what happens since its the only thing that is responding

Your on Lp bootloader that's your issue.
Download Marshmallow tar from the general post I made for rooting Bpg1.
Flash tar and follow post.
twrp. 3.0.x.x is more for marshmallow. You need to be on 6.0.1 not 5.1.1.
Don't use fireflash on this device.
Fireflash is more for phones with locked bootloaders like Verizon s4 on the of1 update.
Fireflash isn't really up to date with our phone and could easily brick your device.
