Guys,
Am I the only person who has a 10.1? I have a stock rooted, factory SIM unlocked V930.
I love the tablet, and am really surprised. I have scoured the internet for any bootloader unlock/custom recovery interest or dev interest in general and there's nothing. Is anyone else out there with any info?
Thanks guys peace
Att locked bootloader is across the board killing development for att devices.

I first installed Titanium backup after rooting wit KingoRoot. Not to be mistakes for Kingroot!. After I froze the front-end for Kingoroot using TiBU, and installed SuperSU, I then made SuperSU a system app again through TiBU. Next step was to uninstall the Kinguser app in Its entirety. Finally, I rebooted and started Super SU, updated binaries and once again rebooted. After that SuperSU was the default and only Superuser app. I was worried and skeptical at first but it was flawlessly perfect and performed exactalr as it should have. I hope that helps.

And this works even with the marshmallow updated firmware? I just purchased mine about a week ago. If you have any links please direct me. Thanks

I can confirm that this method doesn't work anymore. Maybe it use to work on a different version of android.
Can y'all pull the marshmallow rom?
Well, too bad nothing ever materialized with a custom recovery for the v930. I really like the device. Has anyone else dug up any info? AT&T can smoke pole!

Can i possibly get a copy of your system image so i can have my v930 back? Right now i am running v935 and it doesnt have the same (32 gb)storage. It only has 16gb. Please pm me. Thanks in advance.

I just got this tablet and love it too.
I've also scoured the internet and can't find much on it as well.
The only thing that confuses me is the IR BLASTER doesn't seem to be turned on via the software.
Anyone else seeing that?
My LG G Pad X was rooted with kingroot and now I can't update to Marshmallow. Is there any way to get around this? Or am I screwed? I tried the update tool and nothing came from it.
LG V935 root Success
Hello, I used Kingroot to try a long time, have not been successful, today, I found that China's 360root is very good tool. Incredibly successful. I feel very happy. Although there is no superusu tool, but now it has the highest authority, I am still very happy.

Can you put me in the direction of the V935 image that you mention? I've bricked my V930 by using the wrong version of Kingroot (don't use the new version 5) and there doesn't seem to be any V930 images anywhere on this planet. Right now I'd settle for anything that will give my V930 some wheels again. A V935 image would do the job just fine. Many thanks.

Install Flashfire and run it, or use nandroid on a windows computer. Either will do the job nicely. And you will be the first to help all those ppl with bricked V930 tablets )

Note: This Root method is no longer supported, most models have been updated to newer software and does not work. If you want this to even have a chance at working, you must have the original software that shipped with the phone 3 years sgo.
This is a great root method with easy to follow instructions that anyone can follow and without all the extra jibber jabber most do not understand. The originator of this root is @giantpune, please give him a Big Thanks!!!
**This Root Method has been confirmed working on the models listed below**
E980 AT&T (Does not work on 10P 01/08/2014 update)
E985 Euro/SFR
E986 Euro/SFR
E988 HK
E988 GCC
E988 India
E988 Starhub Singapore
E989 UK
E989 Israel
1st: Go to http://www.lg.com/us/support-mobile/lg-E980 and download the drivers, let it install all the way before going to the next step.
2nd: Go to 7-Zip and download the program, it is the best one imo.
3rd: Download the attached root file below
4th: Un-Zip the Root file using 7-Zip to a known location
5th: Make sure in Developer Options you enable USB Debugging in your phones settings
6th: Make sure your phone is in Charge Only mode
7th: Plug your phone into your computer and give it about 3 minutes before going to the next step to ensure your computer can see your device
8th: Open the file and run the CurrentRoot.bat
9th: When it prompts you to go to MTP mode, do so in the same place Charge Only was found. LET IT SIT, 3 MINUTES MINIMUM!!!!! This will insure that your computer has seen your phone as a MTP device, if you rush it, the root will fail!
10th: Now hit any key to continue
11th: Once it is completed and your phone reboots, safely remove hardware to remove your phone.
You can download many free root checker apps from the Play Store or use SuperUser that is included with the root.
If you need the original AT&T TOT file with the update attached please visit

Thanks @giantpune
side note: I am not responsible for your phone, the above process worked flawlessly on my LG Optimus G Pro US Version E980 on 7/12/2013.
How do I know if I have the "Value Pack Upgrade"? I got an OTA update from AT&T/LG a few days ago, which completed successfully but my Android version is still 4.1.2. Is there a baseband version or build number I can compare against to see if I have this "Value Pack Upgrade"?
That was the value pack upgrade sir ?
I followed these directions exactly and it worked perfectly! I installed Root Explorer and it was successfully given superuser privileges.
Note to others: on step 10, the phone will reboot and the error message you may see on your phone (that a process stopped unexpectedly) is normal. I waited until the phone fully rebooted and finished loading everything before disconnecting my phone.
Android version: 4.1.2
Baseband version: APQ8064/MDM9x15M
Kernel version: 3.4.0
Build number: JZO54K
Software version: E98010k
Awesome, I added a note about waiting for the phone to reboot. I did not see the message you got but I may have missed it looking at my daughter dance last night to Xbox.
Enjoy sir
Thank you for the above instructions. Zero issues.
Waiting the 3 minutes made all the difference.
This is the way to go to root! Thank you again!

I also stated that this was not my root from the beginning. The others posted within this thread did not work for me, this was flawless and also the original on this forum had instructions that were not basic enough and left out stuff for noobs.
I also never asked nor ever want donations, and if I post something, it is never ever ever about money.

Well, the rooting police are after me..... lol
Tried to apply the update while my E980 was rooted. No go, got the 0x13e error. Research says that's probably because device is rooted.
So I unroot and try again a couple days later. Same error displays. Device restarts and a new error displays. Something like "Device is suspected of being rooted and rooted devices will not be updated".
So I'm hiding out until the heat is off.
In the meantime, any thoughts.

I rooted using this method while still on 4.1.2 and it worked flawlessly.
I then paid for and installed SuperSU Pro and activated "Survival Mode"
Lastly, after the OTA update was COMPLETELY finished, I followed this simple procedure to get root back again.
SuperSU disables Knox for you on 4.3 which is also nice. I should have qualified here that I am COMPLETELY stock other than root. I have not "frozen" any apps., deleted any Samsung provided files, etc. and I have stock bootloader and stock recovery. This will likely NOT work if you have done any of those things.
Is there a flashable version of this? If not, can somebody make one? Thanks.
I'm running a custom rom and rollouts/updates from vendors freak me out because I don't trust not one of them. Knowing AT&T they have thrown in some bit of encryption that locks the bootloader. I understand this might not be the case this time but I do know none of them can be trusted.
Now if you excuse me, I'm 1/2 done with 1984 the book and my tin foil hat is making me itch.
Guys I need help I am stuck, I am using unlock att with tmobile, I check software update but it days interrupted, and I even tried with kies but it's not connecting at all, I tried 2 pcs.... Any help... What to do to update it... Please

I have a few questions for you and/or those more in the know:
If I were to do this same thing, would I be able to flash a custom recovery (like TWRP) and/or flash custom ROM's/Kernels like I can already do now? One of my main concerns is that the stock kernel doesn't support Boeffla Sound, and that really makes for better audio on this device...might as well take full advantage of that Wolfson DAC...
I have to admit, it would be nice to be able to use pure AT&T stock, but rooted, as a base...this is why I loved the old CleanROM AT&T SE so much...
TIA for any guidance you can give on this.
Side note: after ODIN'ing back to 4.1.2 MA4, it says I have a 741MB update I can take....I'm sure that's this 4.3 update...Culpeper, VA here.

I did the same as marchusdavis but it resulted in a total disaster. After I downloaded the OTA update from AT&T I restarted my phone and it installed through CWM-Touch. At the end it asked if I wanted to ensure root was maintained and of course I said "yes" there (as well as through my SuperSU Pro Survival Mode). When it booted, my WiFi no longer works AND I lost root.
If anyway has any advice on how to get to a stock 4.3 from here please let me know!
Ugh, having trouble updating atm.
Goes up to 30%, then my phone reboots and says
"The update was interrupted" or something like that
On stock 4.1.2 rooted with stock recovery if anyone can help.

I don't believe so, as I am completely stock, bootloader and all. If you want to install other ROMs, you'd need to use a different method I believe. Likely downloading this update either via Kies or something else, and use ODIN to do everything. If you search around a bit on XDA, you'll probably find someone who has done it successfully and posted how. While I like custom ROMs, I have not had a need to use one yet on this device. However, if Samsung doesn't eventually give us Air Command, that might be enough to make me try it!
Is it possible to get the official update from the leak or do I have to downgrade to 4.1.2? I tried updating from the leak but it said it's the latest version.

Following a thread in the Galaxy S5 forums I was able to root an S5 with Towelroot by flashing a signed (important if you don't want to trip the KNOX flag) kernel from an older firmware release, do the root, and then re-flash the signed kernel for the 4.4.2 version. I can't guaranty it work on your device, and I have the GT-N5100, but if we can extract the signed kernel from your image the pieces should be available to try it.

NOTE 3 - ROOTED
Yea, I looked at it.
You can too by using 7zip to "open archive".
Here's the root directory of the 2400258.cfg file you linked:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
There is no signed "boot.img" file that could be flashed with Odin or Heimdall. When I checked the updater script a patch method is used to updated the previous kernel:
Code:
ui_print("Patching boot image...");
apply_patch("EMMC:/dev/block/mmcblk0p9:5150976:8293cf49006c35a33647cba0f6153bc8320ae5de:6080784:eaee84c0a938f101931ca0b235cbbee112c26499",
"-", eaee84c0a938f101931ca0b235cbbee112c26499, 6080784,
8293cf49006c35a33647cba0f6153bc8320ae5de, package_extract_file("patch/boot.img.p"));
Without a complete 4.4.2 version of a signed boot.img file you wouldn't be able to return to the original kernel after rooting. I wouldn't recommend the method I mentioned previously until that's available.

Thanks for taking a look. Will search for the correct boot.img file. Nothing on sammobile yet

I downloaded the update but did not install it. I put the file on my dropbox. Its a cfg file 800mb or so in size. Can anyone do anything with that so we can get root? Let me know and Ill send a link.

I would like to tinker with getting root on 4.4.2, I have the SGH-i467, but I'm having trouble even getting the OTA update.. (no longer an ATT customer)
Any way you can share a link to your download?
Thanks,

I'll leave that up to @godzulu since it's his IMG file but just want to make sure you know that you need to be 100% stock on the previous build to use that file to update to 4.4.2.
ramjet73
Thanks!
I just started looking for information on viable rooting methods for the i467 after the 4.4.2 update and am a little disapointed with the news i found on this post. I had hoped to find a ez method to remedy a few issues such as the ext SD storage problem.
Thanks to OP and all here working to fix the problem!! Off to research more & hopefully be able to bring something helpful back.
We waited for a LONG time to recieve ANY updates so hopefully we wont be waiting long to get root back.

this is from thread on how to root i467 on 4.1.2 Stock firmware. I'm not on att too and it worked for me.
Triped KNOX counter
Im not shure this will help at all but I found the error file that my tablet made after the update faild since I acedently triped the Warrenty counter in KNOX. Its from the SGH-I467 I also have the OTA file saved its 813mb. My programing skills are limited.
You can successfully roll back to 4.4.4 via 5.0.2.
5.1.1 BLOCKS the ability to DOWNGRADE.
I will keep this post updated as we receive OTA's in the future.
Heres a link to the stock at&t firmware,

Yea i figured its the least i can do since i cant work on an actual root exploit. Atleast we know its safe to update to lollipop!!
yess
thank god. im really hoping this lollipop update is decent im at 85/181 in optomizing apps prebootup.
im so excited for this root exploit though its been too long.
Do you have to do anything to be able to rollback before you update?

Hey guys,
I know alot of people are receiveing the update to 5.0.1 today, i wanted to confirm that i updated to 5.0.1 and i was successfully able to roll back to 4.4.4 VIA Odin. The Integer overflow our devs are working on to root our device is patched in 5.0.1 but we can successfully roll back to 4.4.4!!
This is good as far as rooting goes. we can successfully roll back to 4.4.4 when our Devs release a root exploit.

Hopefully we can get an AT&T Note 4 lollipop stock odin.tar to flash back to that too if necessary.
I'd love to see a L odin.tar for this. My phone fails update everytime so I'm either going to need to odin it or go to the Samsung experience shop.
So what happens when everybody updates to lollipop if that updates the bootloader even if you flashback to 4.4.4 if they come out with root for the 4.4.4 bootloader won't that mess up the newer bootloader for lolly pop?

Your phone blows up and life will cease to exists as we know it.
But seriously know one knows, you know the risks when updating. If you're waiting for root and its that important to you then wait.
Quit trashing other threads with this question. Asking the same thing 5 times in 5 different threads is ridiculous.

How is my question talking trash? I was just curious ive ran into this problem b4 so and im dealing without root Ive learned to work around it like everyone else and the reason i did that was cuz sometimes ppl don't see it and the same ppl don't look at it and just wanted to get word out in case it does mess up root if you update then try to roll back and cant root becuz you have a new bootloader

He never accused you of talking trash. He said you are trashing all these threads by copy/pasting the same post into like 5 or 6 different threads. In other words, you're making messes and getting annoying. Ask the question in one thread, and don't spam all Lollipop-related threads. So many threads are active right now anyways, so someone is bound to see your post.
My bad guys i was just trying to see what ppl had to say and i was gonna ask if any one with the galaxy gear was having any luck with it working on lollipop

I connect to home wifi network and update apps. Its gone. My work wifi block something so that appeared the whole day
I rolled back to 4.4.4 and I can't get any OTA updates; not even the NK3 update released in January. I even tried using an ATT sim. Anyone else with this problem?

Is there a link to the 5..0.1 ROM to flash with ODIN? I am using an MVNO
Mainly posting this here for any devs that want it.
I have removed the check for stock recovery as well as added a build fingerprint check for TWRP to allow this update to take without Stock recovery.
This is the update.zip that T-Mobile pushed out starting today (10/05/15). If you are not on D85120E stock (might work with root, I have not checked) do not flash this as it should fail but it's your choice to risk it.

I would not attempt to flash this over any custom rom. With stock it is as simple as flashing in twrp. However as I said I did not test with root on 20e

How did you test it than. Coming from 20e without root? How does one flash it without root.... I'm guessing this is a dumb question however

So, how long should it take to boot after flashing this? My phone is stuck on the white T-Mobile boot screen. I think its been sitting there for at least 15 minutes.
EDIT: I gave up waiting. I reflashed the stock rom over this and now I'm waiting though the optimizing process. Why didn't I make a backup first??
EDIT2: I redownloaded it, made a backup and tried to flash it again. This time we're good. Optimizing apps as we speak.
Does anybody know if this fixes the "Settings has stopped" error when going to the tethering menu in Settings?
So I need some clarification please and have a couple of questions. I have Tmo G3 (D851) running stock 20e, but it is rooted. I also have TWRP. Can I just flash this update.zip using TWRP and all will be fine or not? I of course will do a full backup before I start, but wonder about data. Has anyone learned whether this works on rooted devices yet? I think I am already Stagefright protected because I run Textra for SMS and MMS (I do NOT run stock messaging), but should I upgrade to this? I look forward to some expert opinions. Thanks to all.

I had unrooted (through supersu script) in order to setup Android pay. I would recommend you do the same, simply because this has the root script at the end of it anyhow...
So, unroot (setup Android Pay if you care to), flash, reroot...move on with life :good:

Did all your data stay intact? After the update I assume you wiped cache and Dalvik? Thanks for your answers.

No wipes necessary ('dirty flash'). Data stays intact. It will optimize all your apps on initial boot though.

Running rooted stock 5.0.1 20E. I've disabled supersu and booted back into TWRP to flash and I'm getting this error when I try to flash the zip:
"Package expects build fingerprint of lge/g3_tmo_us/g3:5.0.1/LRX21Y/151451134d07b:user/release-keys or lge/g3_tmo_us/g3:5.0.1/LRX21Y/15227151285fc:user/release-keys; this device has LG/omni-d851/d851:4.4.4/KTU84P/2:eng/test-keys."
Not familiar enough with the file system to know exactly what that is, but I'm guessing some file on my device is reporting I'm still on 4.4.4? Could that be a kernel issue? I did at one point have a custom kernel, but I went back to stock after that and re-rooted? Just hoping to avoid a full wipe and redo...
