Hi,
After something like 3 years of using G3 installed with android i can see the phone is getting a bit too slow.
The phone is currently installed with stock ROM android 5 (version 21a-SEA-xx) which was installed via FOTA. But at some point it stopped finding updates. Now I can see LG did release android 6 for the G3, although I didn't get.
LG PC Suite, found version 30b.
I can see there are also 30d and 30f, and maybe some other as well.
Are these consecutive versions (meaning 30f is a later version with some bug fixes or improvements ), or just same version for different D855 phones with different hardware or something like that?
Is flashing this ROM with LG PC Suite, is an upgrade or "clean install".
My main incentive for reinstalling is performance. I want to clean everything. All the junk left by OS an apps.
I assume a clean install will actually do better job in the respect.
Is that true?
will this process (installing with PC Suite) will erase everhing from the phone (pics, documents, etc)?

@OJNSim: it's not, what you asked, but before you put time to get an old system +bloat, read 1st post of Clean ROM: based on latest O-firmware, debloated, useful extra's.

Hi,
I only thing I understand is that you recommend flushshig this rom.
what do you mean by "it's not"?
@OJNSim: my recommendation is not, what you asked. You asked for reflashing stock-ROM.

Short history of what I've done/where I'm at now:
The History
Wanted to upgrade rooted D855 from 4.4.2KK to 5.X Lollipop
De-rooted using SuperSU. Rebooted, and went to update center to apply update. Message saying "Phone has been noted to be rooting. Software update not available for rooted phones." or something thereabouts.
Decide to factory reset phone. Does nothing.
Follow this guide (Link) to completely wipe and start fresh. All goes well.
Bunch of bloatware comes pre-installed. What the hell?
Decide to combat this by following this guide (The KDZ way) (Link) and this Image (3 UK variant) to attempt to get back to my original version.
Used this one-click root (Link) to re-root my Android 5.0 variant (question on this later)
Goes well pretty much; everything seems about right. However, here are the problems.
The Problems
I have rooted and have Titanium Backup Pro; tried using this to remove the bloatware. Doesn't do anything, and if I try to do them individually I get the message "cannot remove System app. Failed to locate the APK file." This is my #1 problem. I have a bunch of European apps that I can't pronounce, plus rubbish like 'Orange Antivirus'. Even things like Deezer is now pre-installed system crap, listed under the Software center portion of the LG Updates area on the phone.
My 3 splash screen no longer comes up, which is fine, makes the booting either faster or just seem smoother. However, it makes me wonder whether I'm on the right version of Android now; will I miss updates to future version of Android from hereon out?
Is Android 5.0 the latest update for the EU D855? I heard 5.0 was having problems on the G3, hence why I've updated so late. However, if I'm now stuck on the version WITH the problems, that's not good.
Bump; anyone? This is driving me nuts!
Hi,
1. To uninstall the antivirus you need to remove it from the phone administrators.
2. There should be at least the LG boot animation.
3. Yes. The latest update is still 5.0.
I suggest that you move to a custom Rom based on stock like cloudy 2.5.
Much better Rom and free of bloatware.

I gave up on waiting (the bloatware was driving me crazy, not usually so impatient), and just installed TWRP, wiped it and reinstalled a fully stock ROM, so all sorted now. Any benefit to using Cloudy 2.5 over complete stock? Any performance/battery benefits?
Thanks for your response though

Maybe I'll look into it then On another note, you're from Leicester? Where abouts you from?
Hi all, I posted a question in the giant general "ask question here" thread but I'm thinking this might be more nuanced than I realize after I saw that thread about downgrading=brick.
I've got Z00A, I bought it new a month or two ago--'just tested' seller said but it looks like it was used up until october of last year. It was running android 5 and CM 12.1 (I think) and had TWRP 2.7 (I think). When setting it up I saw update about an update "CM13... nightly". Installed it, booted phone and it had no gapps and tried too many half assed solutions so I started over and installed TWRP 3, got Open Gapps and CM13-0522 and started over. Seemed to work great but then I noticed stuff like the camera would freeze or take pics that would come out a blank green screen and the mobile data connection almost never worked (though I'm on new carrier) and a few other problems. Is it possible that since I went from CM12 (and presumably no updates since october) straight to CM13-0522-nightly that I missed or somehow 'skipped' a bunch of firmware updates? Does the latest version not include the updates from previous versions?
I was going to try rolling back to stock via one of the ASUS ROMS but I have no idea what version to get because I cannot determine what I currently have or what the phone had to begin with (version as in "V2.20.##.###"). Also, I don't think I installed any ASUS rom before----I just installed CM13 and OpenGapps. Then I see posts about sideloading the ASUS firmware roms in regard to users trying to revert/reinstall firmware: is this what I should be doing?
I read the FAQ thread and searched what I could but it has only left me more confused. I'm fairly technically apt but cell phones are not at all my usual foray so any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi, I'm replacing a lost Moto G3 TE with a Moto G5 (xt1671 dual sim) that should be coming in the mail on Monday. I'd like to do whatever mods I want to my phone right away, before activating my google account on it and everything. So, I'd really like any advice any of you can give as to preferred custom rom with root that I should put on my new phone, so I can get to it right away. I've already found the thread to unlock it (same process as in past mostly), and I've found the guides for putting on TWRP (either 32-bit or 64-bit). So, now I just need to decide which custom ROM to use. Please advise!
I've also had a Moto G2 in the past. I've unlocked and used custom roms and root on all my phones so far, from Cyanogenmod 12.1 to AOSP Extended, ViperOS, and LineageOS. My wife's Moto G2 has Oreo on it (through AEX) and we're enjoying it (I had her add me as an account until I get my new phone). So, I'd like to continue using an Oreo system if possible, and I'd even prefer AEX, but it seems that it's discontinued for the Moto G5. Is that correct?
My overall goals for a custom rom are, in order of priority: reliability, speed/performance, battery life, and customization options. I found that AEX balanced all of that well on our past phones. Is the discontinued AEX for this phone reliable, or not? I've also seen the LineageOS thread and the KAOSP thread and have glanced at a few others. I use google accounts and half their apps for sure (so I'll want to install a GApps package with it). And I see there's a possibility to unlock RAW/DNG files for the camera, which I'd really like to try (as I prefer raw file editing instead of JPGs). And the customizations I like (if still possible) are mainly involving the way the launcher responds - I like having the navigation buttons hide, or to swipe up to get them back, I like being able to modify the status bar, etc.... typical customizations that were usually available in AEX that I've used. I also use root for file explorer and a few other functions - I used to always use SuperSU in the past, but just recently started using Magisk (on the Moto G2) and it seems good, though I'm open to any recommendation about which root to use.
So, please fire away! Please give your suggestion as to which currently available custom ROMs are stable, have good performance, good battery life, and offer standard customization, plus which I can root. I appreciate any suggestions and any advice you can give, especially regarding if there's a recommended rom but if it has known issues and any known workarounds. Also, I'd appreciate advice anytime today or tomorrow (since it'll likely be the afternoon or evening of Monday +3 GMT time - Madagascar - that I'm able to start working on unlocking it, installing custom recovery, etc.). But even if the advice is late, I might still be able to use it. I know this is a bit much to ask, but please give your own opinions freely!
Oh, by the way, do I need updated Motorola drivers, or will the motorola drivers and adb/fastboot I installed last time (for the Moto G3 TE) keep working with the new phone? The unlock thread I've found here doesn't say anything about motorola drivers or adb/fastboot. Thanks in advance!
the best stable rom is stock rooted

Thanks for the response! Is there a stock oreo available? And is stock rooted still customizable (like with AEX or something - can I install some sort of thing to let me customize it more?). And is there a debloated version of the stock rom available? I saw one thread on here about a debloated stock rom, but it looked like it was still nougat.
If it's possible to customize the stock rom further, please point me in the right direction. And if not possible to customize it further... then are you suggesting that any of the custom roms available aren't very stable to be used well for a daily driver?
Again, thanks for your response and also for any more feedback you can give!
So, I have my phone now and it came with stock Nougat. I've unlocked it, and I'm currently working on getting TWRP, Dm-verity thing on it, and then magisk. After that can I still update it to Oreo or not? Please advise. Thank you!

Crud, that sucks! I was already finished rooting and everything on magisk, then I let the OTA update download and when it restarted my phone, it just automatically sends it into recovery (TWRP) every time now! I tried to install this TWRP stock Oreo (dirtying flashing it) hoping it would fix the boot-loop-to-TWRP-recovery problem, but it didn't. So now I need to figure out a way to get back to the original, so I can start over and try again.
I'm trying to do a factory reset and try again, but in TRWP it says ""Failed to mount '/data' (Device or resource busy)'" This sucks! Any ideas where I can go or what I can do (such as some fastboot commands or something) to get it all working again?
EDIT: It does reboot to bootloader though, so it's not hardbricked. Just need to figure out what to do from here. Thanks for any help!
try to flash via fastboot only boot, recovery, oem and system from oreo, then aply update, then root
Thanks! I downloaded the firmware (for latest Nougat) from this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/development/stock-upgrade-to-official-stock-oreo-8-t3823598
Then I flashed everything they said through fastboot (ignoring the modem stuff) because I'm still downloading the oreo firmware right now anyway (my connection is quite slow). At first the bootloader got stuck and said "error" and I was freaking out thinking I'd hard-bricked it. But I turned it off and on again anyway and it loaded fine back into nougat for that latest version.
So now I'm downloading the latest stock Oreo and I'll probably try to ADB sideload it.
Which root do you recommend? I have the Magisk I did for nougat that worked great - 11.6 But there's this thread here (https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/how-to/guide-how-to-root-stock-oreo-8-1-soak-t3832347) that talks about what seems like a complicated way of doing Magisk 15.3 and then getting it up to 16. What do you suggest?
magisk 17.1 its ok, but you have to flash only partition that i said, not full firmware, and DONT flash the bootloader and GPT partition
---------- Post added at 06:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:10 PM ----------
better let the phone to update ota for latest security patch, dont flash via fastboot
OK, I installed the stock oreo through ADB sideload (it wouldn't read my storage for some reason).... then I reinstalled TWRP, no problem... then installed Magisk 17.1 (per your suggestion) and then the apk for the manager. Everything's working great! Didn't even need that dm-verity thing.
I'm still looking into the mods I can do to it now that it's rooted (such as changing boot logo and boot animation, adding that 'camera 2' setting, etc.) So I'm not sure I'm at a finished product yet, but I'm definitely at a stable rooted oreo with all my regular stuff installed, so that's a good place to start! I've made a nandroid backup here in case any of my further experimenting messes it up.
Thanks again for your help! And if you can give any suggestions towards the best way to customize the look (for example - is nova launcher still the best way to do that?) or other aspects of the system UI, while still being on this stock rom, then please let me know. I'll look up how to get that better camera mode working.

Could you help me with this: if I backup my system (everything) with TWRP.... can I then switch to a custom rom to try it out (in case I want a different user interface, more tweaks, etc.) and if I don't like it can I easily switch back to the stock rom nandroid backup I have saved in TWRP (thus restoring my previous state, but without having to start from factory reset)? Or would it be difficult to switch back - like would I have to redo it through fastboot or something and factory reset, etc.?
I'm asking because in the past I never used the stock rom much and I definitely never switched between a custom rom and the stock rom. Once I went for custom rom, I didn't go back - so I don't know if it's as simple as restoring a nandroid backup or if it's much more effort. Please let me know. Thanks a lot!
you must be very carefully because most of the custom roms need twrp on 64 bits, now you have official twrp 32. When you come back from custom roms 64bit to previous nandroid backup, you must install 32 bits twrp, otherwise you may lose the imei of the phone, just read very well when you want to do something risky

OK, thanks a lot for that helpful info! So just to clarify to be sure: basically, if I want to switch back and forth, I'll install the 64-bit twrp first, then the custom rom(s). Then if I want to come back to my stock image backup, I re-install the 32-bit twrp (like the one I'm currently using) and then I can just restore my nandroid backup I took of the stock and all is well? And it's not risky if I do it like that?
yes, its correct that
I have a D855 with KitKat 4.4.2 (10h). It is rooted and (now) has the latest TWRP (3.3.1.0)
I have never updated from Kitkat because it runs perfectly rock solid. Until now.
I have noticed that a number of apps I use on Play Store can no longer be updated. I think they have stopped supporting KitKat, so I must upgrade to the latest version of Android, to make sure my beloved G3 lives a little longer.
I have updated TWRP to the latest version from the TWRP website. Which was surprisingly hard to achieve, as I was unable to get into Fastboot or Download modes. After several tries, the TWRP app finally flashed successfully.
Also, I finally got the G3 into Download mode (although I had to hold down the power button for about 30 seconds to get back out of Download mode, after disconnecting the USB cable).
I now need to flash a new rooted MM custom ROM, but I seem to remember the partitions changed from KK to LP/MM.
So before jumping and in, and potentially bricking the G3, I just wanted to ask if any one could offer me some advice on upgrading from Kitkat to MM. To ensure I am successful.
Looking at the old threads, people usually did this back in 2017, and things are a little different two years later, so I thought that it would be worth asking the question now, in case there are newer/different options to consider.
I would appreciate some advice. Thanks.
Many thanks for those who had a look at my question.
I was hoping for some advice on RPM/TZ partitions etc. , Modems, Bump! etc but I guess it was naive to expect the forum for a 5 year old phone to be active.
For my part, a good phone is a good phone. And the LG G3 was a good phone.
I came from a Sony Z1 which was a great daily driver, slightly workman-like but rock solid with good vanilla-style OS.
Moving to the G3,the build quality wasn't quite up to Sony's standards but I suddenly discovered how good audio on a phone could be. The screen was great, the OS was rock solid, which is why I stayed on Kitkat for so long. Also, the G3's removable battery allowed me to use a Mugen 6000mah battery, which has provided amazing battery life.
FYI, I considered going back to a Sony but the G3 was so good, I bought a G5. Which is a decision I have always regretted.
The G5 OS was good, like the G3. The bootloader could be unlocked. The audio and screen were as good as the G3. But the hardware was only mostly good. The phone overheats all the time and successive ROM updates have never resolved this issue. Also, battery life is beyond poor, possibly the worst I have ever experienced with a mobile phone.
If I brick my G3, I think I will replace it with a Sony.
I am going to go ahead and flash an MM ROM, Fulmics or CleanROM. I have a Kitkat bootloader so hopefully that will help (now that Autorec has been removed from Playstore).
I will post how things go.
Safest way to do it:
1. Upgrade to LP from KDZ. Root the phone, install TWRP and flash some MM (or newer) ROM.
2. Upgrade to MM (30b or 30f) from KDZ. Root the phone with king root, install twrp and flash some MM (or newer) ROM.
Thanks for the advice, MESA.
Unfortunately, I have already flashed the latest Fulmics for d855.
Did a clean flash. Appears to be working with no issues.
Upgrading does appear to have resolved the various app issues I was having. Looks like some big companies/organisations are no longer supporting KitKat.
But, now, I have no idea which RADIO/MODEM, RPM, TZ or CUST I now have installed. Also, I do not know whether the kernel is set to permissive.
If you have any advice on anything I should do now, please let me know.
So I had rooted my Tab S back in 2016 or so (if you check the forums here you'll see my posts for this...). Have had that working for a while now. It tripped the Knox (I didn't personally care about this) except now I want to install a couple streaming apps on the tablet and the OS is too old to handle it
I had loaded TWRP onto the Tab S and rooted it with Lollipop stock ROM and loaded it with SuperSU. It has worked like a charm up till now, issues with Link2SD notwithstanding (I have ZERO intentions of going back to that app).
My question is: what do I need to do to install the newest possible version of Android that the tablet can take? I know it's an older tablet now but I still use it for reading and other stuff, and I'd like to keep it alive a bit longer by installing a new Android OS and ROM on it.
(aside: I did remove a bunch of stuff once I rooted it, so I am not sure how much this may interfere with any attempt to update it to a newer version of Android)
(aside #2: I never updated SuperSU through the app store as I was afraid it would break the root process, so I left that app alone and eventually it stopped showing up in my update list on google play. I'd have to check the tablet to see what version of it I have installed at present)
Funny, I just updated my Tab S this weekend. Same as you, was running into apps that no longer support older OS. I updated mine to Lineage 14.1 version. So far working fine. I know there is a newer version but after reading the threads, this version seemed to be reported as working better. Just follow the instructions in the thread to upgrade.

Hey thanks for your reply!
Do you need to update the android version to get Lineage OS installed?
No you do not. You just have to update the bootloader. Instructions are in the thread on how to as well as to have to confirm.

Cannot find the Lineage OS ROM image, I think it may have been removed from their site given the age.
Do you have a working download link for this?

Personally I like the Resurrection Remix rom. https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...om-resurrection-remix-n-sm-t800-wifi-t3606243
Just do the standard stuff. You've got TWRP installed, so you're most of the way there. Back up whatever you want to back up, and then:
1. Wipe System, Data, Cache, and Dalvik Cache.
2. Install OS.
3. Install Magisk (if you want to use Magisk for your rooting needs. It seems to be the popular root tool now. It's pretty boss.)
4. Reboot into system, then back into recovery, and:
5. Install GApps or whatever. I like NanoDroid myself. It's the alternative to GAPPS. There are a few odd programs that just plain won't work with it yet, but the official Google apps have an annoying habit of wasting processing power on pointless background nonsense, so I prefer the alternative. Also there's an Xposed module that improves compatibility. https://nanolx.org/nanolx/nanodroid
Hmm I'll take a look at this other ROM
Currently, I have a rooted stock ROM (SuperSU ad root manager), and interested in moving to a custom ROM that is well supported
My only 2 concerns before starting are:
1) Do I need to update SuperSu
2) Do I need to update the bootloader before doing anything else (even the ROM that you suggested @FailSafeNow ? )
Anyone who was wondering what happened:
Process I used (done 2 days ago as of this post):
0) transferred all relevant files to device for the operation, backed up stuff I wanted
1) Updated bootloader to marshmallow via ODIN
2) Updated TWRP to 3.x (forgot exact version) from within TWRP
3) Wiped system + data + cache (I could have probably wiped internal memory but there wasn't much there anyways)
4) Installed Lineage OS 14.1 and Nano Gapps from within TWRP (in that order)
( full disclosure: I had wrong Gapps .zip file the first time and had to get the right one afterwards)
While I had the superSU package, I decided not to root the tablet again. I don't think I need the customization that root offers this time around especially since Lineage OS is already so lightweight compared to the stock ROM I just replaced...
Thanks all for your help!!
Over and out
Thanks all! Nice super fast tablet with amazing battery life now

I know this is a somewhat old thread. I have a T800 myself and am looking for a ROM. Want to try Lineage OS 14.1 like you have tried. Was curious as to whether you still have it and if you still liked it? If so, what version are you running now and how is your battery life compared to stock? Thanks so much! :good:
