[OFFICIAL][RECOVERY][QUALCOMM] TWRP 3.X For LG G4c (H525n) - LG G4c ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm

Hi guys!
I built TWRP [Ver: 3.2.1] from scratch for LG G4c.
Update: TWRP is official now!

Supported Models:
LG G4c

First, UNLOCK the bootloader!
Steps:
(1) Download the Official TWRP App.
(2) Open Official TWRP App > Select TWRP Flash > Select A Device > Search for G4c (c90).
(3) Select G4c (c90). Then select "twrp-3.2.1-0-c90.img".
(4) It opens a broswer and select download "twrp-3.2.1-0-c90.img".
(5) Open Official TWRP app again, select "Select a file to flash.." and select the file you just downloaded and then select "Flash To Recovery". Confirm flash.
(6) Then reboot to recovery.
You are in TWRP!
NOTE: To boot into recovery with hardware buttons use this method. Power off the device > press and hold Power + Volume Down buttons simultaneously > keep pressing them until the LG logo shows up > when the LG logo shows up, let go of the buttons for 1 second and then press them again. A factory reset menu will show up. Select "Yes" two times to "wipe" your device. Don't worry, this will actually NOT wipe your device. It will boot into recovery normally. This is because LG phones are a bit different and they instruct the recovery (TWRP in this case) to automatically perform a factory reset of the phone by triggering the /misc wipe flag. I mapped /misc partition to a different partition (/pad) so TWRP doesn't perform a factory reset.
BUGS:
None!
Device Tree I created for G4c: https://github.com/PVineeth/android_device_lge_c90_recovery
Thanks to my friends on XDA for helping me in building device tree and building TWRP from scratch!

All right but why? You can't do it as it has locked bootloader so no recovery flashing? Unless I missed something?

Indeed, there is something you miss (but not mentionned in this thread).
The bootloader unlock method is coming soon.

You mean FISH? Well it's not a bootloader unlock but it allows you to use custom recovery but not directly 'flashing' it

What is FISH? What I know so far is that the OP did a tremendous job recently by unlocking the bootloader of LG's Snapdragon 410 powered devices. Looks like our device is the next one.

The patched aboot method was just a test for SD808s. People know how to criticise. They can't get their asses of their chair and work or just need ready tailor made solutions. Everything is trial and error. The patched aboot was a success in phones like K10, Spirit which have SD 410. LG G4c has SD 410. If you can't say anything good for the work we do... you can leave XDA.

Any news in bootloader unlocking for G4c?

I know.. I know. I'd really wanna help, but I don't know how.

Any news ?

It would be very easy to bring TWRP in FIsH to this device because you're already have build a TWRP image we just need to copy the compressed ramdisk image out of your TWRP plus the FIsH installer and then using this to do bring up TWRP in FIsH.
This requires root access and so I don't know if this will work for this device because I do not own it
TWRP in FIsH will not enable you to install custom ROMs but you can make backups and restore plus you have the option to install zip files as long as they are not touching any signed partition like exposed or audio mods etc
If you have never heard of TWRP in FIsH then just check my signature for some links

Will realy the FIsh moethod work for our device - LG G4c?
"..there are hacks (up to KK) which have a workaround for this but I couldn't find anything for LL (sorry if I missed something) and what I found was not easy to port so nothing generic which i could just adapt easily."
It's running Android 5 or 6, NOT 4 (KitKat)..

Why would you use FISH anyways, I thought @pvineeth97 posted in another thread that he already knew how to unlock the bootloader. I could be wrong though.

But FISH will be not that useful in long run and it is a tedious process. This phone has a Snapdragon 410c which is similar to K10. We are in process of patching the bootloader. Wait for the results.

need to original rom, that i can use to flash with recovery though?

for some reason no computer can recognise my phone over USB it always says thats its malfunctioned, but the phone thinks its being charged on AC instead of USB i have never found a solution ive tried CM11 by Novafusions, PAC ROM and 2 different CM12's but all face same issue but i want to go back to the original ROM, i lost my nandroid backups so was wondering if their was sort of way to flash it from the phone or if someone could give me their nandroid backup?
if someone has not done a firmware update, then a simple thing you can do for me is to download the firmware then use a app to pll the update.zip out so i can flash it i think you can find it in chache files if you dont want to use zip
Have you tried downloading the appropriate ROM from samsung-updates dot com (can't post links) and flashing it through Odin? Or perhaps download mode isn't recognised either?

Try to find one near your home with an Riff Box (or another brand) - They can repair it quite easily by low-level-flashing of new FW.
I could do it also but sending it back and forth from UK to DE is quite useless....

You would need a special hardware box (I have "Riff Box" - google for it to know what i mean) for that...
You cannot do this only with software or simple guide....
Watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TTjZgQYRfw
And to buy this box only for Ace2 is quite sensless... Box is much more expensive than ace2's value (nowadays)
OR
Try to find an service on ebay - search for "jtag repair samsung" OR "unbrick samsung"
And before you ask: Don't wast your money for one of this "USB Jig Dongles" - That do NOT work for Ace2.

You are screwed then. I dont think we have a flashable BL to recover from hard brick like that. How did you get there? It is possible you just triggered the qualcomm DL flash mode and hard reset will let it boot normally. If the bootloader is truly corrupted there is nothing you can do.

Hard reset by pull battery and put it back in. I do not have the bootloader flash file to unbrick from qualcomm DL mode, no one does for this model.

Unbrand zenfone 3 deluxe

Hello everyone! I bought recently zenfone 3 deluxe branded tim (Italian telephone company). Do you know how to unbrand (debrand) my phone to get updates when they are released by asus? Otherwise there is a way to install the firmware downloaded from the ASUS website? Thanks to everyone in advance

1: you should be able to unbrand by installing generic WW firmware
2: just download it from the firmware section here: www.asus.com/us/Phone/ZenFone-3-Deluxe-ZS570KL/HelpDesk_Download/
Make sure you select the proper variant ("pro" is for the SD821). Place it in the root of your internal storage, reboot the phone & you should receive a msg that the system found a new update + a prompt to install it.

That's strange. The update utility should've picked it up.
I am only aware of 2 SKUs: WW (worldwide) & JP (Japan). Unless your carrier modified the SKU, then the phone will not accept others.

Is there any reason for you to hijack this thread? There are already other root threads open.
You can always do the community a favour, investigate & share your findings. Maybe some of the dirtycow exploits could work.
I don't believe it will... The branded rom might need bootloader to be unlocked as carriers in Australia,(Telstra, Optus and Vodafone) have their own ROM's which will not be flashed onto other devices.
You might find there is a part in the bootloader which checks for specific information, just like if you tried flashing a Japanese rom on an International( WW) device.

update: I tried to rename the zip file UL-Z016-WW-4.12.40.1505-user.zip in UL-Z016-TIM-4.12.40.1505-user.zip and the phone has recognized there was an update. However, after processing and installation it gave me install error. Do you have any idea on how to proceed?
You need to unlock the bootloader. This is not available at the moment.
The update has to match more than just the name. You won't be able to install anything else until you have the bootloader unlocked. Was the same with the Zenfone 2...

The only bugs i can see so far are:
magazine unlock not working, cant get it to work no matter what
sometimes the background of the notification shade is black instead of showing a darkened background of whats behind
everything else is fine, though i dont know about dual sim

I checked with HiSuite on PC but it said its the latest version. It says its a developer version doe. And since it's a pre build i guess there is not OTA Update or atleast i couldnt find one so no i didnt receive one

ok thank you very much for the info mate, gotta decide if I'd go with this or not ??
I installed 7.0 from the provided link and everything works perfectly. This phone is now super smooth, very quick and sips battery... huge difference! Feels better than my Moto Z.

Do you have the same bug like me? Magazine unlock not working and when you open the notification shade on homescreen and change brightness then the background of the shade will be black everywhere?

I do not have the shade problem you describe, but magazine unlock is not working for me either - not really a feature I'm interested in personally.

H818P for now. If your phone is similar to H818P and you could successfully flash H818P firmware in your phone. You can use the patched aboot.

Hi guys!
Disclaimer:
No more secure boot error!
I thank my friend @cerg2010cerg2010 for helping me out in patching the aboot.
-> Requirements:
LG G4 LGH818P
Rooted Phone
-> Steps:
(1) Downgrade to Lollipop version of the Android. Download here.
(2) Root your device.
(3) Download the patched aboot file. Click Here.
(4) Connect your phone to the computer. In command prompt, type "adb shell".
(5) Transfer the aboot file into /sdcard/ folder.
(6) Type "su" to enter the root shell. Then type "dd if=/sdcard/aboot_237568.bin of=/dev/block/<your aboot partition>".
(7) Restart your phone by typing "reboot".
You have unlocked your bootloader!
Refer Notes for more information.
-> Notes:
1) The aboot_237568.bin is the patched version of aboot partition of your device. Secure boot validation has been patched such that secure boot is always valid, so you can flash your own TWRP and Custom ROM.
2) Don't upgrade to any updated version of Android if you get any through OTA update. It might brick your device.

Sounds amazing. Please provide the details about the patch meaning what have you done exactly to get that patched aboot?
Could you please download my latest TWRP beta(!) and provide me the recovery log? Or someone else of course
My latest beta is a unified variant and so should work for h818 as well but maybe I need some small adjustments..

Well I have to say I'm impressed. Share your method with us and spread unlock for all variants! G4 might finally reborn!

When you flash the patched aboot, the bootloader is unlocked. You don't need to do anything else.

Patched the secure boot validation function. The patched aboot has the secure boot set to always valid condition no matter what image you flash.
And after flashing KDZ the bootloader will still be unlocked ?

Proably not. Aboot is part of kdz flashing.
This is fantastic news! H812 user from Canada here hoping you can make this patch process work for our aboot too!
As in case of g flex 2..
Everyone be warned..
The aboot on lg k10 is not signed
But in lg g4 there is a hash verification to aboot.
It may result in a hard brick.. so be warned
first of all , thats great news. this is the same method we use in h815 with the unlock.bin from lg but instead of pushing the file directly, we flash it in bootloader. clever and nicely done.
since its public you should share it the right way not like this. i mean this is not a development project, this is about unlocking and flashing twrp. it should be a DEVDB thread in general under utilities section so that everyone can find it. Also the title should be: "Unlock Bootloader H818".
As it is, in a week or two its gonna fall at a second page and in search results also almost noone is gonna find it cause of the title.
in the op tell them about mmcblk0pX. They are not all expert , they don't know mmcblk0pX in g4 is like our sdX in linux.
Tell them the ls command to find which mmcblk0pX is the right one or how to find it with a root explorer. As it is, its just gonna give them an error and gonna ask you everyday about that.
We need h818 users too. To be able to start developing for more variants its important. Cooperate with steadfasterX to correct bugs in twrp (if there are any).
This would be the 1st step to start flashing together with us , custom roms.
Finally , Welcome H818 users
Oi funciona no h815p Brasil com o Android 6.0?
