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.

Backups don't need root. They need TWRP to be flashed.

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

Howdy all,
This here is my first post, and I'm pretty new to the android world as I just recently switched from the iphone to the GS3.
I have my phone rooted and had CWM installed, and some of the bloatware apps disabled. I tried to get the latest OTA from ATT and it wouldn't install with CWM. I went back to the stock recovery and re-ran the update. It got about 31% into the update and stopped, restarted, and said the update was interrupted. Then I tried the newest CWM (6. whatever) and that didn't work either. I've also enabled all the bloatware. Lastly, I tried Kies and it says that my phone is up to date even though I know the update was not applied.
I've searched high and low for the answer to this and can't find anything. I'm at the point where, since I'm new to the android scene, I'd like to get my phone back to the factory settings (unrooted and such) but I can't even find clear instructions on how to do that, either.
I'm used to the ease of jailbreaking the iphone, then restoring it via itunes whenever needed, but it seems that it may not be that simple with the GS3.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Maybe this thread will help: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1896773
Thanks! I'd still like to know how to restore to complete factory.
The ota is failing because of the frozen bloatware. There's a guide I wrote in the general section explaining how to go from rooted stock to rooted ota.

I was able to apply the OTA with bloatware frozen. It will fail if it's been removed, but freezing (through Titianium Backup) didn't break the process for me.

Download the unrooted, completely stock LG1 image from here: http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SGH-I747
Flash that with Odin, then boot and install the OTA as normal. In the end, you'll be at LH9 completely stock, with the stock recovery and no root. If that's really what you want.

thank you so much. honestly, right now i think i should learn more about android and everything before i start really messing with it. it seems a lot different and, perhaps, more complicated and delicate than just jailbreaking an iphone, and right now, i just want a fully working phone that i don't need to worry about.
i really appreciate your help. thank you.
also, i never had any bloatware frozen except from the disable action in the application manager, it still never worked. thanks to everyone else who replied with some assistance.
UPDATE: I followed your directions, and went to check the ABOUT section of the phone. It still says my kernel is a USER one. My wife's un-messed-with GS3 does not say that. I think I may have missed something.

If you want to go back to stock and get update just use Kies.
Open Kies ( do not connect phone yet)
From Tools open Firmware Upgrate and Initalization
In model write exacly w/o quotes " SGH-I747" click OK
then write your Serial Number from under battery all capital letters click ok.
Put phone in download mode ( like for ODIN) click ok.
On next screen you see info about deleting data and if you want to procced. click OK
and connect phone you have in download mode to PC.
Follow instruction
After you get software installed this will look like new phone you get from store. Get update and enjoy.
ok guys, i have a question for you. keep in mind that im new to the phone world lol. ok so a bout a month ago i wanted to unroot my phone but for some reason the tar files on sammobile wasnt working right. so i came on here and downloaded what i believed to be the file that i needed to go back to stock. after i used odin and the phone rebooted it automatically notified me that i had a update. after i accepted the update and it rebooted, it again notified me that i have yet another update. so after this happened i noticed that my phone was updated to 4.4.4 kitkat which would be great exept for the fact that it keeps freezing and when i am on wifi i have a problem getting phone calls aswell as text messages. also when i disconnect from wifi i have to restart the phone to get any data back. is there anything that i can do? is it possible to go back to 4.3 or even 4.2.2? any help would be very much appreciated.

Hello! Did you make a back up of your phone before you started the update? That would be the easiest way to go back to how it was. If you used Odin and didn't install a recovery like TWRP or Clockwork you may not have done so. I believe you can reload from Odin with an older ROM it will just erase everything you did. There are stock ROMS here at XDA and galaxynote3root.com as well. Let me know it this helps, sorry for your troubles.

I'm actually surprised that you did get an update to 4.4.4... You could try going back to NF9. The safest route I see that you can take is to install a custom recovery and make a backup before doing this. If you odin NF9 and it doesn't boot then you're kinda screwed because we technically don't have the 4.4.4 update yet, so if anything goes wrong, you can install a recovery again and restore the 4.4.4 backup.

You can get the latest TWRP recovery here : http://www.techerrata.com/file/twrp2/hltetmo/openrecovery-twrp-2.8.1.0-hltetmo-4.4.img.tar
Just odin that and after it's done, go into recovery by doing Vol down + Home and do a backup either in your internal or external storage. After that finishes, you can go back in download mode and odin NF9.
ok thanks for all you help man,

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.
So I'm just getting into the whole ROM thing and I'm pretty sure I've messed up here. I encountered a problem after installing CyanogenMod 12 Unofficial (trltespr NIGHTLY) where I could receive text messages but not send them. I could still load pages and apps over lte and call people but I couldnt send messages. I gave up with the idea of finding a solution after browsing forums and decided to preform a factory reset through settings. The phone was rooted but not after I installed the rom. after rebooting it went into recovery mode and began to loop showing the Team Win screen then going black only to do it again. I removed the battery and booted the phone into download mode and it is now sitting here connected to my computer with Odin up ready for whatever it is that I need to do to fix it. I have absolutely no idea what to do. Help is very much appreciated.

Youre an OE1 victim and Good Luck in your endeavors until a .tar comes out.
Search The Q&A threads pertaining to OE1 and see if you can manage to come out with a successful gathering of info and get back your phone.

Is there any way I can remove or reinstall/repair TWRP so i can properly wipe the system or just get another rom working?
Solved
Ok so I did some searching and didn't find any definitive answer as to how to fix this. Finally, figuring I couldn't mess this up any further I went into odin and re-ran the CF Auto Root. It rooted successfully and the moment it rebooted it loaded me back into Cyanogen. None of my settings were changed and everything was how I left it. As for my message problem they still wont send but at least I got my phone back. Thanks for the help as I'm now going to restore to factory settings so long as my recovery is working.
The reason rooting it fixed the problem is because it restored the factory recovery and I can now reinstall TWRP

Yep, the trend seems to be pointing to CF Auto Root after trying to flash stock tar over OE1 build. Although I'm thinking the stock recovery is from way back unless CF updates his build.
About the text sending issue, did you apply the fix found in link below? Check under the spoiler.

Are you in stock or Lineage?
I have managed it already by flashing the right twrp then flashing lineage. My phone is okay now. Hehe But the problem im having right now is that my lineage is not rooted. I thought flashing twrp, automatically roots your phone. Any solution for that?
