How to Root your G4

You may already know some of the steps below, but for those who need some reassurance, I will try and make this a complete guide.
I shall assume that you know about the risks, and you have confirmed that the unlock code for your G4 is up on LG.com
A__ Pre-Reqs:
1- On the About Phone page of your device's settings tap 7 times on "Build".
"You are now a developer"
2- Enable USB Debugging.
3- Tick the OEM unlock box.
4- While there, also note your IMEI and the Device-ID.
B__ Get LG files:
1- Make a directory on your PC. I'll refer to this as G4.
2- Visit LG.com , then the support page.
3- Find your device. Download LG drivers to your PC (in G4 dir).
4- To get the unlock code you will be required to register first:
http://developer.lge.com/main/RegisterCheck.dev
Detailed instructions on how to unlock your bootloader are already on the LG site.
5- Once unlocked, there's no going back to original state, and G4 will display bootloader unlocked message at boot-up.
C__ Get SDK files (Androis Software Developement Kit):
1- Register on the developer page of LG.com
2- Download Android Studio from:
https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
3- Put the required files in G4 dir (see below).
D__ Get the latest SuperSU zip file and download to G4 dir and put a copy on the root of your device.
You'll need your USB cable or use bluetooth to send across to your G4.
D__ Get the latest TWRP recovery image:
Mine is 2.8.6.1 Earlier versions, including 2.8.6.0 will cause issues.
E__ To root your G4:
1- Connect G4 to pc.
2- Click on USB notification, & click on INSTALL.
3- Wait! until connection & disconnection noises stop.
4- Then Type:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery <TWRP-2.8.6.1 or later>.img
To simplify matters, rename that to TWRP.img as you may have to flash it again. Also your device must be supported. The 2.8.6.0 image that I first used for my H815 (from TWRP site) did not work. The 2.8.6.1 did. It was supplied by xda member Wolfgart:
http://techerrata.com/dees_troy/p1.img
Thank you Wolfgart. The link saved me a lot of time!
5- Then type: Fastboot boot TWRP.img
TWRP screen should appears on your G4.
6- Your G4 is not yet rooted. Install SuperSU zip file:
with TWRP screen now showing on your G4, select the install button, and select SuperSU.zip.
Your G4 will now be rooted.
Immediately make a NANDROID backup on your SD card, a USB-Go or the G4 itself.
Put a copy on your PC for later.
F__ Confirm recovery using Power & Vol. Down button combo:
1. Turn off your G4
2. Hold Vol down, then power button, together until LG LOGO appears.
3. Release ONLY the power button for 2 sec. then quickly hold it down it again.
4. White screen appears, asking if you want to factory reset.
5. Select Yes.
6. It asks again.
7. Select Yes.
G4 SHOULD now go into TWRP recovery mode without losing your data.
That's it.

You need to change this to the UK edition as this is the only one able to do so. Also, there's already a half dozen threads that show this. You're just getting click-bait attention.

Which side of the bed did you get out of this morning Dennis?
Xda-developers are well respected and highly regarded.
You have made similar inflamatory comments elsewhere on this site.
Don't write to me again. ...and change that signature. It's juvenile.
To other readers:
A couple of Xda members, one in Hong Kong, asked me if I could "... let us know the steps how to root?"
H815 is the international (global) verssion of the G4.
I compiled a complete reference guide where owners could refer to.
If there is another one on the Q&A forum, then I've not seen it.
Credit given in the guide as and where appropriate.

[TIPS] ROOTING and FLASHING anything on P8000 WITHOUT PC

[TIPS] ROOTING and FLASHING anything on P8000 WITHOUT PC
Hi guys, I found a method to root and flash anything on my P8000 without unlock the bootloader, use SP Flash Tool and even use PC. I tried to go this way because I was not able to get my P8000 recognized by Flash Tool nor as a MTP (mass storage) device in any Windows 7 laptop. I decided to write this post because no-one over the net talks about alternative method of rooting Elephone P8000.
Disclaimer: I'm not responsible for ANY damage (software or hardware of any type) caused to your device, remember that I'm not a developer, and I'm only reporting my personal experience. DON'T try to flash rom linked below on other devices or flash roms which are not compatible with P8000.
Rooting and flashing process may VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
LET'S START.
1) DOWNLOAD THE STUFF: download everything directly through the browser of your P8000.
-TWRP recovery: http://www.mediafire.com/download/8g....7.0_v.4_1.zip
-Custom Rom: choose the rom you prefer from the link below and download it directly in your smartphone, my favorite one is Nexus rom:
-Eragon rom:http://www.needrom.com/download/eragon-3-for-p8000/
-CyanogenMod 12.1: http://www.needrom.com/download/stab...nogenmod-12-1/
-Mokee OS: http://www.needrom.com/download/mokeeos-2/
-EMUI V3.1 : http://www.needrom.com/download/emui...lite-stable-2/
-NEXUS rom v2.4: http://www.needrom.com/download/nexus-10/
-Flyme rom: http://www.needrom.com/download/p800...5-3-15082-5-1/
-Gapps: if you choose to install Nexus rom. or Mokee OS or CyanogenMod 12.1, you may need to install google apps also if you want google services and play store to run on your device. Click on the link from the browser of your device. Select ARM_64, then 5.1, and than "pico" and click on the button to download: http://opengapps.org/. If you need others apps download them from the play store.
2) ROOT YOUR P8000.
Use an app called Kingroot, but you will not find it on play store. Get it from the link below:
http://kingroot.it.uptodown.com/android
Download the app directly using the browser on your smartphone, then install and open.
Skip the tutorial and click on "Root device". Wait the process to be done (few minutes) and don't be scared if the device reboots. This app is able to root the most of android devices, but not the 100% is compatible.
3)UNZIP THE RECOVERY:
Install an app knows as RAR from play store, than open it and navigate to the directory where the twrp recovery zip is contained (usually "download" folder). Open the zip and extract the IMG file contained in it into the same folder.
4)INSTALL FLASHIFY.
You can find this app on the play store, or you may download it from the link below:
http://www8.zippyshare.com/v/pqLDpS5F/file.html. Open the app and grant superuser permissions, than accept the agreement.
Click on "Recovery image", than "choose a file" and than "downloads", select the IMG file of the recovery you extracted before and wait for the process to finish, a message will appear. This app can be used on any android device that is compatible, but flash only IMG and zip files specific for your model. Now we can install the Rom or any zip file you want through the twrp recovery.
5) NANDROID BACKUP:
Power off your P8000 and than boot into recovery mode. To do this press and hold power button and volume up at the same time, release them when white writings appear. Press volume app button to select "recovery mode" and than volume down to enter recovery mode.
Swipe the bar to allow system modifications, click on " backup" and select every partition displayed, then choose where the backup file will be stored and write the name you want to give to the backup file.
Swipe the bar to start and wait untill the process finishes ( few minutes). Press the back button to return to the main menu.
6) INSTALL ROMS OR OTHER ZIPS:
Before Installing a new rom you need to wipe many partitions of the device, from the main menu select "wipe" and "Advanced wipe", then select the partitions that you may wipe: system, data, cache.
Swipe to wipe and wait the process to finish (few minutes) an then press back button to return to main menu.
Now click on "install" and select "internal sorage" among the options, navigate and select the "download" folder where your downloaded zip files are(rom and gapps in this case). Select the zip that you want to install ( the rom in our case), swipe to confirm and wait few minutes, than press back and install the gapps zip as well.
At the end of the process click on "reboot system" and wait for the smartphone to reboot.
The first time it will take more time than a usual reboot (from 5 minutes to 10 minutes).
I hope this article will help you out!
Please forgive me for my bad english.

It's wrong that nobody over the internet talked about the method. I talked about this method in the last command at this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/elephone-p8000/general/tutorial-flash-root-update-elephone-t3248742.

Yeah but nobody explained how to do it completely without using PC.

I thought this method of flashing ROMs with recoveries (philz, cm, twrp etc...) was common knowledge? I've been flashing ROMs like this since my HTC evo days. Isn't that the whole point to having a third party recovery?

-> Please be aware that Realme cannot guarantee the full functionality, and will not be responsible, for any third-party unsigned custom ROM being flashed to your device after the bootloader is unlocked. An unsigned third-party custom ROM may not have gone through the thorough tests that we run for each device and software version that we release.
-> A third-party custom ROM may not work properly on your device, and certain functions and services may cease to work. The performance and device data may also be affected, and may damage the device permanently. In the worst case, unlocking the bootloader will cause physical injuries or material damage, for ex. due to the device overheating.
Q3: Will it affect future OTAs after unlocking?
The secure user data partition may also become inaccessible, and you will not be able to get any official software upgrades if you unlock the bootloader. Once re-locked the bootloader, users will receive official OTAs again.
Q4: Will it affect warranty?
Warranty will be fully applied to problems caused by Realme 2 Pro unlocking or flashing a custom ROM.
Q5: How to flash back the official ROM after installing a custom ROM?

Q2: Are there any risks after unlocking the bootloader?
-> Please be aware that Realme cannot guarantee the full functionality, and will not be responsible, for any third-party unsigned custom ROM being flashed to your device after the bootloader is unlocked. An unsigned third-party custom ROM may not have gone through the thorough tests that we run for each device and software version that we release.
-> A third-party custom ROM may not work properly on your device, and certain functions and services may cease to work. The performance and device data may also be affected, and may damage the device permanently. In the worst case, unlocking the bootloader will cause physical injuries or material damage, for ex. due to the device overheating.
Q3: Will it affect future OTAs after unlocking?
The secure user data partition may also become inaccessible, and you will not be able to get any official software upgrades if you unlock the bootloader. Once re-locked the bootloader, users will receive official OTAs again.
Q4: Will it affect warranty?
Warranty will be fully applied to problems caused by Realme 2 Pro unlocking or flashing a custom ROM.
Q5: How to flash back the official ROM after installing a custom ROM?
Users need to go to a service center to flash the device - FREE of charge. We are developing a tool to flash a stock ColorOS. It will come in Q2 2019.

Well, I guess that answers my questions partially. Hope you guys followed up on this users request.

[GUIDE][ROM] Realme 5 Pro global ROM for Realme Q

Realme 5 Pro global ROM for Realme Q
Code:
* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you.
{Mod edit}
If you know exactly what you're doing then jump go step 5)
1) Introduction:
Oh sheet. Here we go again. Hope you guys will make use of this little guide for at least 20 RMQ users PMed me here on xda, on Messenger and on Telegram to help them install RM5P ROM on their RMQ device and had to dump them for I had no idea. Now that I have tried it myself I'll try to do. I've an RMQ device 4+64GB variant which I ordered from AliExpress for 161$/148€ ( in September of 2019 ) and tried loads of tweakings on stock ROM to make it more fitting to a person like me for daily usage but I don't think I have to say... without much success. In this guide I'll try to show/tell you how to make with COS without weeks of testing and debugging I've been through on stock RMQ ROM since October of 2019.
2) Personal reasoning:
I heard there are people who like Color OS as it is existed but still I wouldn't want to believe you even after I talked with some of you. Since the very first day I held my device in my hands I started seriously despising Color OS for I've been a purist, minimalist and stock Android fan for 10 years now and always tried to stick to "clean" ROMs such as LOS, PE, Aosp Extended, AOSIP because of reasons. This is mainly because (Chinese) Android skins modify system/vendor so heavily that they prohibit or interfere (with) basic Android functions that work well on stock-like ROMs. {Mod edit}
3) Features:
Mostly same as on RMQ ROM but...
More languages are supported by the system.
Most of Oppo's restrictions are removed {Mod edit}
3.5) Known bugs:
None. You tell me!
4) Basic terms:
RMQ: Realme Q
RM5P: Realme 5 Pro
RMX1971CN: Realme Q device codename.
RMX1971EX: Realme 5 Pro device codename. Both are used to distinguish China and Global/India ROMs.
COS: Color OS
ROM: Read Only Memory (means for us the OS we use to flash with TWRP/Fastboot)
OS: Operating System
TWRP: TeamWin Recovery Project (the one recovery we use widespread to flash custom ROMs and fixes on our mobile device)
FASTBOOT: A mode of your device and a script on PC that you can use to flash stuff via USB cable onto your device. This is necessary if you are on stock recovery.
FLASHING: The process of writing onto our mobile device's ROM that wouldn't necessarily be possible without using external tools if TWRP wasn't there for us. Mobile device companies don't really support or encourage users to do this.
BOOTLOADER: Default state is locked on our and on most devices. Without unlocking it, it would be extremely hard if not impossible for us to flash custom ROMs on our mobile phones. You can unlock your bootloader by following this guide if you haven't already done that because without unlocking it, flashing global ROM on your device which comes with Chinese one preinstalled will likely be impossible at least not known to the RM5P/RMQ community so far.
MAGISK: Systemless solution which grants root access (admin-like) to the user without really tampering the ROM system, this way granting higher stability than it's predecessors.
5) Precautions:
If you aren't an advanced user and don't really know what you're doing follow the steps closely and it's highly advised to read the basic expressions to understand better what's happening just in case something goes wrong so you can fix it.
External SD card is highly recommended to use because to make this work formatting data is quite likely needed.
If you want to bring your data with you from your current ROM make sure to do either Titanium or Migrate backup and save it to your external SD card.
TWRP for RMQ (this one I highly recommend to use for it has a wide range of features and options that come in handy, unlike normal TWRP)
Magisk if you want root or/and want to pass Google's Safetynet completely.
Magisk COS beta FIX from here (step 6)
Modified vbmeta.img from here. (step 6)
Magisk modules: Busybox and MagiskHide Safety Props Config. (from inside Magisk Manager after successfully rooting with Magisk flashable zip file)
6) Prerequisites:
{Mod edit}
Probably formatting your data.
This means all your stuff, apps, data will be gone after you do this so be prepared and save your stuff to your external SD card.
7) Installing:
A) If you're coming from custom ROM then:
1) Wipe everything (except internal and external storage) including /data/system/dalvik/cache/ but not vendor and vendor shouldn't even appear in the list when wiping anyway.
2) Flash the ROM.zip
3) Flash TWRP.IMG as recovery and again flash it as boot.
4) Flash vbmeta.img as vbmeta.
5) Reboot even if you get notification "no OS is installed".
6) If you're stuck on boot logo for 15+ minutes or bootloop then turn off your device volume up+power then right after shutdown vibration and black screen enter fastboot mode by holding volume down+power, from there select recovery and you should be back to TWRP recovery
7) Select wipe and format data by typing "yes". This will delete all data on internal storage so take care.
8) Reboot to system
9) The device should boot up to COS. Do the initial setup and after that reboot to TWRP recovery again.
10) Flash Magisk.zip
11) Reboot to system
12) Enter Magisk Manager and disable core only mode
13) Reboot to TWRP recovery... again.
14) Flash Magisk COS Fix beta.zip
15) Reboot to system.
16) Check Magisk Manager. Core only mode should be turned off. Check SafetyNet Status. BasicIntegrity should be true now.
17) Download and install MagiskHide SafetyProps and Busybox from Magisk downloads.
18) Reboot to system (normal reboot)
19) Enter Magisk Manager and see if the two installed modules are active. (If yes you probably done everything well. If not, something is fishy.)
20) Download any terminal emulator app, I recommend Termux. Open it and by typing "su" without quotation marks and pressing enter you should grant root access to the terminal app you use. Now type: "props" and press enter.
Type 1) and press enter as edit device fingerprint.
Type f) and press enter as pick from certified fingerprint.
Type 6) and press enter as Google (you can use others too but I used this one so it should be tested).
Type 21) and press enter as Google Pixel 3a XL.
Type 1) and press enter as Android version 9.
Type y) and press enter as yes.
21) Reboot to system and open Magisk Manager. Check SafetyNet Status. Now both cts profile and basicintegrity should be true.
22) Enjoy your better Color OS.
B) If you're coming from stock rom:
If you haven't unlocked your device's bootloader it's time to do it.
After unlocking install TWRP for Realme Q. Then follow the steps above for they're the same.
Don't report issues. I can't help for I'm no developer and I've dyscalculia which means I should be bad at every Informatics stuff that requires math/logic thus I can't compile/rebuild/update ROMs. As for the developer he lost his phone so it's not his interest anymore to make fixes and updates for the ROM/device. Probably pointless to bug him.

Well, yes. I wish I had found a simpler method but I didn't and I wanted to make sure everything is going to work fine without letting issues happen during or after installation. Perhaps it seems complicated because of that and that I didn't want to take chances. Better be safe than sorry, I presume. For me, who has been flashing ROMs since 2010 it didn't take more than 5 minutes to complete all the steps. Evidently there are lots of users who just gotten into bootloader unlocking and don't know much about the details of flashing. That's why I tried to make this guide quite well detailed. Anyway, if I find a simpler way or I get know of an easier method or Realme itself will approve the change between regional ROMs I'll add those steps to my post of course. Don't thank me yet. Thank me if it worked btw!

Thank you for your tutorial, Excellent!
Should this convert Realme Q to Global version or just ported rom? Developers saying it's impossible for now because of different partitions sizes..
I have flashed the ported R5P rom in the Russian forum on my realme Q few weeks ago..
What about ota update in your method?, would it work and I can update regularly or not? I have to wait update fixes to fit the realme Q?
And can I lock the bootloader or mobile will getting bricked?
Many apps don't work because of root and unlocked bootloader..
Appreciating your effort ??

According to my knowledge official ROM change from global to China or vice versa is not possible. I don't know about OTA updates. I presume you can't update that way if you flash this ROM for as you said different partition sizes. This ROM while it's still made from global, several stuff from system were removed so it'd still fit onto an RMQ device's smaller partition. The ota updates are not modified this way so I think you couldn't update that way because the ota would be too big to fit onto the RMQ device's partition. I believe you shouldn't worry about root and bootloader unlock. Without rooting and using safetyprops Google notices your unlocked bootloader thus both cts and basicintegrity will fail. In my tutorial I go through that bothersome Magisk method to trick Google's security system. After doing that both SafetyNet checks pass, meaning Google shouldn't see your device as rooted. Root is dangerous for some apps because it can trick them. Unlocked bootloader is dangerous for the device and its owner. At least according to Google. Meaning with Magisk SafetyProps applied only DRM Widevine stuff shouldn't work completely like Netflix full HD and above. Every other app that requires certified device fingerprint should work. Banking apps and online purchases work just fine for me. I think you shouldn't worry, only if you're the type of guy who wants ota updates badly and watches DRM protected content all the time. Else this is completely safe ROM.

Lineage not working - Moto should be compatible

Hi everyone
Below is a cross post from another part of xda developers and reddit.
I got a reply to the post below telling me that Moto Cedric was not an "official" build. I was basing the installation of Lineage on this link: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/cedric/ so I'm confused. My phone satisfied all of the requirements. Any help greatly appreciated. Phones are not my strength so I'd be very interested to get opinions as to whether this phone is retrievable, or not.
I have just had Lineage 18.1 put on a Moto G5 (the correct build and model according to the Lineage compatibility guide). There are two problems that stop it working:
The phone will not allow me to connect to the mobile network telling me that 'airplane mode' is enabled and that I need to disable it. Thing is that 'airplane mode' is not enabled. I have tried toggling it on and off with no luck. The phone recognizes the carrier correctly but it won't connect.
The phone is dual sim but it will only pick up one of them telling me that the other sim is disabled.
I didn't flash the phone, I paid someone to do it. When they did it they were a bit surprised that they were able to put 18.1 on it due the age of the phone or something. Would flashing it with 17.1 be a better option? Pardon my total ignorance with this subject.
I can't find any information that helps with these issues so I'd appreciate any help. Phones aren't my strong point I'm afraid so I'm stuck.
Thanks

Do you have stock kernel,vendor?
Give me the model number

Thanks for the replies. Its a Moto G5, Cedric, model XT1676 16gb P5
I didn't do the work on this but I know that it ran into an initial problem here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...1-lineageos-18-1.4260293/page-9#post-86445333
The solution that is mentioned there was followed and Lineage installed ok but it has the problems above.
I don't know how to get the kernel? And if by vendor, its a Lenovo.
Thanks

I appreciate you taking the time out to have a look at this. I'm signing off now but will check back tomorrow. Thanks.

ok i will update you soon

TUTORIAL:
-------------------------------------------------------------
Donwload file's:
>Rom: mirror EU
>Recovery: mirror EU
-------------------------------------------------------------
-Make sure your computer has adb and fastboot. Setup instructions can be found here.
-on adb open cmd and type "adb reboot bootloader".
-Once the device is in fastboot mode, verify your PC finds it by typing "fastboot devices".
-copy the recovery file onto adb folder.
-Flash recovery onto your device: "fastboot flash recovery <recovery_filename>.img"
-Now reboot into recovery to verify the installation:
-With the device powered off, hold Volume Down + Power, then select “Recovery mode” using Volume keys.
-------------------------------------------------------------
!Optionally, download an application package add-on such as Google Apps (use the arm64 architecture)!
-------------------------------------------------------------
-Go onto recovery
Now tap Factory Reset, then Format data / factory reset and continue with the formatting process. This will remove encryption and delete all files stored in the internal storage, as well as format your cache partition (if you have one).
Return to the main menu.
Sideload the LineageOS .zip package:
On the device, select “Apply Update”, then “Apply from ADB” to begin sideload.
On the host machine, sideload the package using: "adb sideload filename.zip".
(Optionally): If you want to install any add-ons, repeat the sideload steps above for those packages in sequence.
then Reboot System.

Thanks for the reply and the tutorial instructions. I have not done phones but I did manage to flash a Google Nexus 10 tablet with what appears to be an almost identical procedure.
I'll give this a go on the weekend with a clear head.
I forgot to mention that over on the Reddit sub dread (which led me here) one of the posters suggested that the sim slots sounded like they were fried because the phone wasn't reading them.
But, I really thank you for your help. I'll give it a shot.

No problem, thanks you for the question

Just another quick question. Using the method you recommend, that I think is something that I can do, am I likely to end up in the situation (link below) that I mentioned above? If so that looks like a whole other level of stuff for my meagre phone talents. Not having done the install myself I am not sure if your method is a re-install of what was done initially?

My method is basically reinstalling Lineage Os but in a correct way.

Maybe it can solve some bugs about the Motorola.

Got it. I'll give it a go. Thanks.
One last question. Does the "Google Apps" package link the phone to Google? This is what I am trying to get away from. Sorry of this is a basic question, but I see "Google" and I wonder
