Hello there.. I flashed RBJ (v. 8/12) for the first time & i had absolutely no problem.
Then i clean installed the v. 15/12. Everything was smooth & worked flawlessly, except this: (check the attachment plz)
Those blue lock icons at the notification status. That same problem continues existing even when i flashed the latest version.
Apart that everything works as it should. Is it normal? If not, can any1 help me how to fix it?

hmmm, okz. But if i have to reflash the rom, should i consider a clean install?
btw the right steps are these right?: wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, flash ROM, flash Gapps, flash kernel.
In case i miss a step (factory reset or something) plz let me know.

if doing a clean install, no need to wipe cache or dalvik as wiping data(factory reset) will take care of it. wipe data, flash rom, flash gapps, then flash the kernel.

cool. let me know then. this is the first time ive seen such a thing in the status bar, usually id blame a flashable theme/mod but you said it was without it also. that app might be the culprit.
Well.. i unistalled the power toggles app, reboot.. nothing changed. So, i clean installed (less reboot way than unistalling each mod separately) the latest RBJ rom,gapps & trinity kernel & everything is as it should be.. No weird blue lock icons at notification bar. /success
Thanks again simms22!!

I suspect zenyth keys was causing the problem. maybe it needed a fresh flash too. I had just flashed the existing update. zip

Just upgraded my GNex to RasbeanJelly 12/21 and trinity alpha11.
Did a full wipe and everything seems to work except the home button.
No way to come back to home screen , I have to tap the "go back" button.
Someone experiencing the same issue?

Can you completely power down(hold the power button for 30-60 seconds) and power back on to get back into recovery(vol up + power)? And after you did the factory reset and all that, what did you install? Did you make a backup? Just need a little more info.

Yes, after the reset and cache wipe i didn't install anything. I did make a nandroid backup, but it's probably gone now. I reboot the phone and the bootloop starts.

So no recovery? If you can get into recovery your backup is probably there. If you can, check to see if your backup is there first. If it is, factory reset(data, dalvik and cache) then go into advanced wipe, wipe all 4(should be data, dalvik, cache and system - DO NOT DELETE INTERNAL!) THEN restore you backup and reboot. If you can't get into recovery, see if you can get into dl mode. From a totally shut down phone - hold both volume buttons then plug your phone into a computer(while still holding the volume buttons). If you can get into dl mode, then there is still hope, you will have to use lgnpst and flash a teenybin. The directions are here on the forum, but try recovery first(if possible) and let me know if recovery or dl mode works. Sadly, if dl mode doesnt come up, you may be in trouble.
I can get into Download mode. I've tried LGNPST but it doesn't wanna launch. Do you mean recovery as in CWM or Stock Recovery? I can access stock, I'm not sure how to access CWM.

So, do you have twrp installed? Or any other custom recovery? Not stock! Also you'll need a Windows PC.
Just looked at the date lol. You probably have it fixed already or just moved on.
hi guys,
got confused from all the guides and stuff...
I'm getting a new LG G3 today (so i don't care to WIPE it...) and i really don't like the stock rom, and i need root.
what to do first? i'd like to get links to easy guides...
and also, which custom ROM is most recommended? i want something close to the Nexus Edition (maybe CM i best for me?) but i do want the KnockKnock feature to be there by default...
i'de like to get a guide to install the ROM too...
Thank you all!
set up your phone
root it with purple drake
download flashify from google play and grant superuser rights to it
flash a bumped recovery.img that's made for your device version with flashify
download a rom for your device from the lg g3 development forum
boot to recovery
wipe data + press back + factory reset + wipe system + cache + dalvik cache
back to the main screen of the recovery img
install the stock rom you downloaded
enjoy.
i explained it like you are my mother. don't mind it.
edit: knockcode doesn't work on custom roms yet as far as i know. you can download the cloudy rom that's based on stock lg lollipop though.

just to be sure. you just click "advanced wipe", wipe data, press back once and there is a factory reset slider. you do it and go to advanced wipe again and wipe system + cache + dalvik cache.

you don't need an external sd. just download the rom zip you want, transfer it to your phone's internal memory with a usb cable before you wipe anything. do the wiping steps, go back to the main page, click install, choose the zip, click reboot system, done.

no, you won't. but double tap to wake will work.
why do you need knockcode that much? it's not so practical as it seems. i'm just using the swipe lock screen.
i'd suggest you start with the cloudy rom for at least a few weeks and try other custom roms if you want to.

oh double tap to wake and sleep works on every rom. you may use screen off and lock app from google play if you want to use another launcher like nova as well.
i like cloudy because i think lg has the best stock android experience when it's compared to other phones.
cm and other custom roms' cameras are really bad as well, they don't have the driver that lg stock roms have.
if you think these custom roms are enough for you and you need kind of better speeds, then yeah go for it and install them.
Is there a cloudy rom based on lollipop? Or only Kk? I couldn't find one...
just finished installing CM and everything
it was so easy!! even easier then in my old nexus 5!
thank you so much!!
Hello guys, this is my procedure of flashing stock ROM, wipe everything in internal storage and return factory state when I was using my old phone Samsung Galaxy Note 1.
Flash Philz Recovery using PC Odin.
Go to Recovery Mode immediately and do "5 Wipes" including (Wipe Data/Factory Reset), (Wipe Cache Partition), (Wipe Dalvik Cache), (Format emmc), (Format \system)
Reboot into Download Mode from Philz recovery.
Flash stock GT-N7000 ROM using PC Odin, then root using Chinese one-key root app.
Use Triangle Away app to reset flash counter to 0 when possible and willing to.
My G3 D855 is currently in Android 4.4.2, Kernal version 3.4.0, Build number is KVT49L.A1413976435, Software version is V10n-HKG-XX.
And my questions are:
Are there any similar ways to clean my device like I did to my old GT-N7000? I mean wipe all 5 options in Philz recovery or other recovery that can do the same thing without any trouble or bad side-effects occured, maybe official kernal / recovery can't wipe that clean and effeciently like Philz touch, I just want to have a clean device like exact the same status when I bought it.
As you can see I emphasize the software version of my D855, because I can't find the exact same stock firmware on the internet, I only found V10b-HKG-XX, in lgkdz.com or other tutorial sites. I think finding the exact same stock firmware that matches the factory one when buying it is the best, I wonder where I can find that...?
That's all of my question for now... Thanks a lot in advance! And sorry for the long words...
To revert to 0, flash a kdz firmware : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
check your imei here and you have the lastest kdz for your G3 : http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?firmware=1

I know that website, but if you take a closer look on my words, I said I found V10B and now my firmware is V10H. And I am not sure that the firmware I downloaded is 4.2.2 or 5.0 because I don't want 5.0, I want 4.2.2 V10-HKG-XX...
And factory reset will wipe all 5 things I mentioned? Dalvik, \system, \data etc.?

Yep... Hard (Factory) Reset will erase everything from your device including your personal data, info and accounts. In a few words, you will restore your LG G3 to its initial state, the same that is provided when you first buy a new Android device.

It can be done by only pressing Factory reset option in recovery mode? No need to do other things like wipe Dalvik cache or some other things? From my experience factory reset actually didn't wipe system root folders...

Reading your initial Post, you are looking to;
" I just want to have a clean device like exact the same status when I bought it."
.
Then do a Full Factory Reset, Internal Settings or Hardware Buttons. You cannot just Flash a Custom Recovery (TWRP/CWM ~ not Philz) without first "Rooting" your Phone.. You will have no Root Folders if you haven't Rooted...
How to Hard Reset LG G3
USE INTERNAL SETTINGS
Take your phone and tap on Menu.
Then choose Settings.
Go towards Backup and Reset and choose Factory Data Reset.
Tap on Reset Phone and also choose Erase Everything.
Agree with the alert and complete the hard reset process.
USE HARDWARE BUTTONS
Method 1
Turn off your phone: press power button and select “power off” or press and hold power key for 5 or 6 seconds.
Then press and hold power and volume down buttons at the same time.
Release the buttons when the LG logo appears.
Immediately press and hold power and volume down keys until the hard reset menu appears.
If you can’t get it from the first time, just practice a little bit more, as you just have to be fast.
Method 2
Turn off your LG G3.
Press Volume Down and Power buttons at the same time.
The LG logo will be displayed; at the point release only the power button.
Immediately press power key again until the factory reset menu if displayed.
Method 3
Turn off your handset.
Press power and volume down keys at the same time.
Wait for the LG logo to appear and release the buttons.
Then, immediately press volume down and volume up buttons (simultaneously).
Release the keys once the hard reset menu is being displayed on your LG G3.

How?
My phone is not rooted and is stuck in Bootloop.
Please and thank you if you could help.
Before you do anything, try to figure out if you can boot your phone into these 2 mode:
Download mode - With the device powered off, hold Home + Volume Down + Power
Recovery mode - With the device powered off, hold Home + Volume Up + Power. (Take a picture of your recovery mode because it will tell your bootloader version)
If you can't get into those mode, your phone is likely to have a bigger problem.

The instruction is for Samsung i9305 but it will work on d2att. To flash TWRP into your phone, you need to follow this instruction. (https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/i9305/install). Also you need those files:
Heimdall suite - http://glassechidna.com.au/heimdall/#downloads
TWRP image - https://twrp.me/Devices/Samsung

The only way to flash stock firmware into the phone, is with the software Odin. It's basically starting your phone with a fresh firmware through 'Download Mode' with your phone (With the device powered off, hold Home + Volume Down + Power). It will erase everything.

There was a link in the thread to the official TWRP website with instructions for using Odin to install TWRP for the d2att which is the SGH-i747: : https://twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxys3att.html
Download the tar version of TWRP from here: https://twrp.me/Devices/ I recommend starting with version 2.8.7.0 as a starting point.
Download Odin 3.07 from here: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct...ntid=1168421&usg=AOvVaw0aq_x8M8nbsqDFAFe9tFoy
Download and install the Windows Samsung USB drivers: https://developer.samsung.com/galaxy/others/android-usb-driver-for-windows. I assume you are using a Windows computer.
Make sure the battery is fully charged. Open Odin, do not check anything except f reset time, click on the PDA box and select the TWRP tar file, connect the phone in download mode to the computer with the original Samsung USB cable, flash the TWRP. When you see the word reset, remove the USB cable from the phone, remove the battery, replace the battery, use the button combination to get into recovery. Once in recovery, mount the data partition and copy of the data.
WARNING: flashing a phone always involves risk and you could wind up with a bricked phone and/or loss of data. Proceed cautiously and at your own peril.
Thank You
Thank You So Much!

Yes it will, you need to figure out what's making your system bootloop and resolve it or wipe data and cache.

How do I wipe data and cache on TWRP?
Would backing up Data but not system, help restore files like the memos, text messages etc?
Because I could backup the Data and then wipe factory reset and then reinstall the data backup.

The data is what makes the system bootloop in most of the cases and since you're not rooted it is certainly the data what's causing the problem so restoring it would solve nothing.
The option is there on twrp to wipe data and cache.
---------- Post added at 05:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:39 AM ----------
To inevstigate hmmm
You need to remember what you did before the bootloop happened
For example if you installed and app try to remove it and it's data using the twrp file browser.

I think you can try to remove Google Photos apps via adb and see if it does fix your bootloop issue. Since you have a backup, you can undo your steps. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=559925.

Before proceeding, I recommend copying what you can to a computer by mounting the data partition. Then, I would create a complete backup (system and data). Once completed, copy the back to at least one safe place, preferably 2.
Now, try wiping the cache only and reboot. It may be a cache problem that is preventing the phone from fully booting.
Unfortunately, I'm not able to provide instructions to back up text and notes.

I wiped cache and still nothing.
Is there any other options besides factory reset?
Can the backup bring it back to the way it was or will it make it bootloop again?
I haven't used twrp for a long time but you could try restoring the backup and wipe the cache before booting.
Note that restoring your backup will overwrite what's currently in the phone storage.

Unfortunately I can only backup the current bootloop state lol.
I think there's no other option except factory reset.

Yes. It's like a factory reset.
I think you can try to remove Google Photos apps via adb and see if it does fix your bootloop issue. Since you have a backup, you can undo your steps. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=559925.

The only option maybe you have is using adb to uninstall apps one by one and hope it fixes the bootloop. You can try maybe to clear the dalvik cache + cache but I think you have done that.
I have been in this situation before. It's not fun at all. The only way to backup/recover data in a modular way, is with apps like Titanium Backup [root] and Helium. Backup your app + data when the phone is working. When you have a bootloop, do a factory reset and restore the app data incrementally. They are really great apps.

Can these apps be used while it is in bootloop? Lol
