Hi friends
This is my first thread created because i see alot of people get into trouble after flashing latest stock os on lg v10 specially Labled as V10 H901
I bought it few weeks ago just flashed latest os 6.0
Every thing gone ok until phone reboots
But in settings as this thread says got into trouble
Searched alot but no solution except replacing motherboard
I disassemble the phone and looked at it
IT WAS V10 VS990 AKA V10 Verizon
Then I downloaded latest vs990 stock firmware and boom every thing is working fine now....
Thanks

I bought LG V10 one week ago from UAE and it was apparently an unlocked H900 AT&T phone with android 5.0 . After upgrading to Marshmallow, I faced exactly the same problems
LG VPN stops working after booting
com,process.setting stops working after touching Security and fingerprint in setting
No app can be uninstalled and my phone reboots if try to uninstall apps
Also, when I try to take a photo using led flash my phone turns off completely!
Which firmware do you suggest? could you provide the link and step-by-step guide?
Thanks

Thanks for your help bro.
But how can we edit build.prop? The device is in MM already and it can't be rooted.
Only root can access and modify the build.prop file.
Do you have a method to flash the verizon firmware to the refurbished device renamed as H900 AT&T device?
I tried to flash it with LGUP it says KDZ file is invalid. With LG Flash Tool I've also got an error.

Try oldest one as it will ignore all restrictions
i have not tried it myself but here is the method to edit build prop without root.
adb pull /system/build.prop <path to save file>
Now edit the file you just extracted and save it
Push it back to your phone via adb
adb push <path to your file> /system/build.prop
You're not done yet. You need to set permissions too
So open she'll via terminal
adb shell
Now from shell, set the right permissions
chmod 644 /system/build.prop
And you're done

Can you explain to us clearly what flashing tool you used and, if possible, what kdz file you used too(and DLLs if necessary)
Everything on this thread seems to be a bluff...
I could not find any evidence of anyone actually being successful flashing the VS990 rom on to an H900.
Until someone has a well-described process and proof of functionality, I don't think anyone here should believe what is being stated.

Alright so I recently got the lg k7 from metro pcs and decided to root it. I rooted it using kingroot and then used supersu me so that I could install supersu instead of the one used for kingroot. It worked and then asked me to reboot my phone but when it started up again, it just stayed frozen on the metro pcs logo! I removed the battery and went into recovery mode, (by clicking the down volume+power button) but when it starts up again, it still stays stuck on the metro logo. Im assuming it is stuck on a bootloop? I also believe it is soft brick because i can still access the download mode, although it did take a while as i had to find the dang drivers b/c my computer would not recognize it.
I tried using the LG Mobile Support Tool to try to unbrick it, but it says that it already has the latest firmware installed! I cant do an update recovery either!
Sadly the 7 day exchange and return has ended and I cannot replace it, so is there any other way that anyone knows to unbrick the phone?
Thanks
Did you ever figure this out? I had my k7 goto a secure boot error 9 and cant figure it out.

The only way to fix our LG devices...including @Goongydin device
1. downloada kdz firmware file for our respective model & carrier
2. download lg flashtool & another tool on a windows PC
3. put the device in download mode
4. reflash the firmware(Stock)
check out my tutorial here if the firmware file for the LG K7 is ever released...http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/how-to-universally-manually-update-lg-t3280735
HOWEVER the LG K7 firmware file has NOT been released yet & LG wont release if ask...I asked once & they told me they do NOT make it & then I ask another time(different lg representative) She said that file is proprietary & so it can NOT be released to anyone outside of LG...
so I have multiple responses that conflicts with one another especially when the first conversation was with an LG developer...who ACTUALLY makes those files apparently, but inclined that he does NOT.

I have the T-Mobile variant of the K7 (LGK330BK. Is this tot carrier specific? All I need is to get back into TWRP to restore my back up or restore my system.img.

Don't know what happened to your phone. But, why you don't just kdz back to stock?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk
It's not working, any other solution you might have ?
kdz file invalid => you should download it again, it may be corrupted.
You're trying to flash a H850K file onto your phone, are you using a H850 or a H850K.
The H850K is not the European model, download a H850 rom from lg-firmwares.com.
I am using the H850K from Telstra, Australia. But this KDZ file H85010c_00_OPEN_EU_OP_0415, it had no installation problems, so I got rid off its branding of Telstra.

You need to start again and explain exactly what you've done, are you now saying you've flashed a H850 ROM onto an Australian H850K phone and this is where all of these problems have started?
tried the refurbish thingy, does not work either. gave the same message, tool is crashing afterwards.

Yes, but there was no problem at all. The problem only started when trying to root this phone., because it is unable to go into fastboot mode. Until step 10 everything went fine with this explanation. https://www.idroidspace.com/root-lg-g5/ And now it is running like a mess. I am note sure if the phone still is repairable ?
Hey guys,
I'll keep this short but first of all I would like to thank all the people that make this website what it is!
I have always come here for help in the past but this time I am really screwed.
I tried installing a rooted TOT file using LGUP (a 20j file), and I forgot to do OEM UNLOCK before hand. Also, my phone was on 20L so I think I screwed up there anyways.
My phone boots up and gives me the "fail root verification" error in red and just goes on an endless bootloop.
At this point and after looking online for almost 2 hours I think the only two solutions would be to find a TOT file that works with my phone (H901) or the KDZ file that is from the latest update 20L. I have tried using a kdz file from the 20e update (first MM 6.0 update), but it says that antirollback will not allow to go back to a "smaller" firmware.
The files on this thread below are dead otherwise I would not be here asking:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-v10/development/rom-v20e-6-0-t-mobile-t3356412
Please can someone reupload the kdz file for the 20L update? or a tot file that would work on my case?
Thank you so much in advance!

Thank you so much! you just saved my life!!!! I truly appreciate you uploading this file! I just finished returning my phone back to stock 20L firmware!
so i've tried everything to unlock this v10 and so far no go.I need an unlocked phone modem to compare to a locked one and see exactly causing the lock or if i can just flash an unlocked and it will work?
Also can't flash modem of any other variant or else you will be bricked for good.
so i tried flashing system and boot partitions of a lot of different variants to try and get unlock prompt to pop up.
H900(at&t) no boot
H900PR(brazil ver) same thing as at&t no boot at all
H960TR(turkey) hangs on boot animation
H960 (vietnamese ver) same thing as with 960tr hangs boot animation
F600k(boots perfectly, but no sim unlock menu)
F600L(again boots perfectly but no sim unlock menu)
Starting to notice anything? similar model names have similar behaviors ex. h900 and h900pr show exact same boot fault
So, the only possible way is the modem!
can someone with a unlocked t mobile modem please upload theirs. i'm going to flash the unlocked modem and use the f600k system so no tmobile bull**** can lock it again.I really think this could work as long as no stock tmobile rom is installed.I would really really appreciate it as im stuck with this phone rn.
ALSO , here is how to easily get modem partition if you have root.Download "partitions backup and restore" in playstore by wanam
check firmwire/modem in green and backup and that's it! tested myself and works.
So please if you have a unlocked tmobile v10 and are rooted it would very helpful if you could take a few mins to backup modem and upload it.
ok as an incentive im adding a 10$ bounty through paypal.i need the following 5 modem partitions backup using flashfire.
Modem firmware aka modem
Modem firmware data #1 aka modemst1
Modem firmware data #2 aka modem st2
Modem firmware FSG aka fsg
Modem firmware SSD asa ssd
Download flashfire by chainfire from playstore and backup the above partitions and upload them.i've backed up these partitions my self on my v10 so yes it works.I only put a bounty because this device barely has any dev half of these v10 are dead lol also im patient from trying to unlock this thing ffs.First one with the CORRECT partitions i will reach out via pm.
Quick 10$ takes no more than 10 min!!
Backing it up right now as I type this. Whats the best way for me to upload this for you?
EDIT: here is the link, backed up via Flashfire and then zipped up, no password. My phone is currently running stock rooted Eliminator ROM (software version H90120L) https://www.dropbox.com/s/a3l518nse4vkj4q/LGv10Modem.zip?dl=0

Not sure if I did that or not. The phone is paid off so I would assume I can put it on another network. I've moved on to the newer model v20.
Question, why would the modem firmware change whether it's unlocked or not? Wouldn't that be done via firmware update?

Nope.tmobile has locked these down using the device unlock app.if you never used it on another network other than tmo then its most likely not network unlocked.even if its paid off, you have to contact tmo to request a permanent unlock.once they give you the green light for the unlock then you just use the device unlock app that comes on the tmo phone and hit permanent unlock. modem files hold the unlock info in this case.as i said above ive tried roms from even the international variant only to be greeted by the network locked notification.im sure theres at least one person with a network unlocked tmo v10 lurking around these fourms lol.again i appreciate you taking your time to help!
I will look into getting it unlocked. No big deal for me to do so since i don't use the phone anymore

Here you go my friend, V3 is device unlocked. Used the T-Mobile app Device Unlock. Went through the process. Phone rebooted and a toast notification popped up saying phone permanently unlocked. I suppose you can compare both V2 and V3 to see what changed?

Well, i just gave up.i tried everything, this phone is just locked down tight.The phone would not flash the modem.bin at all through fastboot or flashfire since it is a locked partition.I managed to flash the modem firmwire 1 and 2 since they are not locked partitions through flashfire.Phone still not unlocked, so i tried flashing http://lgviet.com/forum/threads/rom-radeonmaya-t-mobile-h901-v4-0-update-19-11-2016.58894/ rom and it has a working sim unlock menu but it says phone cannot be unlocked or something.so i flashed the modem firmwires again and run the sim unlock app and it prompts me for a code! I had my unlock code from ebay and entered it and it said network unlock successful and the phone rebooted itself.But after rebooting it still showed network locked.i think it needs to be on stock rom.i tried porting the sim unlock menu to stock but it doesnt even open.i just gave up on this phone, i just use it like an ipod lol.we have unlocked modem files though i cant find a way to flash it.it just might be what we need.flashfire wont flash protected partitions (modem is protected) and also fastboot keeps through an error when trying to flash anything.the only way to flash the unlocked modem bin is with LGUP.ive managed to extract stock kdz and replace the modem.bin with the unlocked one but i dont know how to convert it back to a kdz or tot so we can flash the modified kdz.also maybe 7.0 has some modem changes? Or i might just try flash modem of korean variant though i would be just testing my luck as it will result 99% a hard brick. 4 ways to do possibly unlock this
Port sim unlock menu to stock rom 99% chance your phone will unlock
Flash modified modem.bin somehow through lgup or lg flashtool.good chance this will work as well
Wait and see if you can expliot something in nougat .if were lucky this might have something.
Sending AP commands through Modem.i tried this myself.it seems you can only communicate with modem with the korean or tizen rom.you can send the command AP%ULCW.
UlCW=unlock code write.so you can write the unlock code through direct comm with modem via usb but i dont know the correct format to enter the code as it keeps throwing an error.
Still thanks to @amoot329 for coming in clutch with the files.when nougat comes out i'll try messing with it again but honestly this phone is useless lol.

thank you very much.
please if you can help me resolve the issue
the attachment is what i am getting after installing the F600L30e
my phone is probably refurbished as it was showing t-mobile and the stickers on the body are also tmobile but it works with F600L software only. LG bridge incorrectly identified it as H901 and tried to update with MM and that is when it got bricked and i revived it from 9008
please help

Can you please help me with this? My sim not working
My lg g8x lmg850emw that had android 10 has now tuned into a model lmg850um when the device updated to android 11
i then re installed the android 10 firmware and it goes back to correct model
And even when updating through lg bridge, the model is always wrong when on android 11.
would be amazing if someone can help or knows anything about this issue.
Maybe ill just send the phone back.
Or does something like this not happen naturally haha?
Yes - I have the same issue, flashed to android 11 kdz from here: https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-lmg850emw-firmwares/ now my phone model is UM.
Where did you buy the phone from? I bought it from aliexpress refurbished, the seller must have done something to these phones.
One thing I did notice is that if I flash a different abl file onto it, then it reads correctly as EMW.

I got the ABL from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...nlock-and-magisk-root-using-firehose.4221793/
The thing is not to worry even if you F it up - you can always flash the ABL from the KDZ file.
What I'd recommend you do is remember which KDZ you flashed and keep a copy of it.
My frustation was I couldn't get into fastboot mode at all. When I flashed this abl - suddenly flashboot worked (wtf!!!) the next issue was I couldn't get the oem device-id that LG tells you to get - just wasn't working.
In the end I thought what the hell lets just run the unlock bootloader command and voila, bootloader unlocked as simple as that! Rooting it easy once you have fastboot or EDL mode as you dump the ABL file and use magisk to patch it and then reflash back to the phone (both boot_a and boot_b)

I think the only way to do that is to flash a different ABL file into it - however does it really matter? Mine says G850UM but functions fine (dual sim etc).
I'm having a similar issue but I have the US Unlocked variant (G850QM). I can't update the device because it's saying I can't change the model from T-MOBILE. Tried both LG Bridge and LGUP. OTA portion of the phone says no update.
It shows everywhere that it's the QM model. No idea what to do. I purchased it second hand and it was already on Android 11.
Edit: Fixed it, see this thread, I hyperlinked to the start of my post: [Tutorial] Crossflash, Bypass OPID Mismatched Error
