At least two people have had successful installs.
What happened during the install?
Can you connect via adb?
okay no i really need some help to unbrick my device. i really thought this would do it. it just boots straight into CWM.

Use odin/heimdall to flash Steve's kernel and system image that you made.
You did backup your system partition, right?

this is what happened, i flashed klins rom, worked fine. went back to wipe dalvik and cache. then it started bootlooping. me being dumb didnt do a backup before hand. i did a back up of the bootlooping but thats it. since then ive been trying to unbrick.

Well that's OT then. I think there are other threads that detail how to unbrick your device.
FYI, I've had my device completely fubar'd including the kernel and all of the partitions after playing with the partition table and raw MTD, and I managed to restore it every time. It's just a matter of finding the right pieces and flashing them.

Assuming you have a good partition table, a good efs partition, and a good param (lfs) partition, this is pretty easy to recover from.
Download a good clean factoryfs
Flash Steve's kernel and factoryfs using odin/heimdall
Delete everything on /dbdata, /cache, and /data
When you are booted into recovery and /system is mounted, you can also try to use newfs_msdos on the /dbdata, /cache, and /data partitions.
Note Steve's kernel is not compatible with my CM7 ROM and my kernel is not compatible with the stock ROM. The kernel itself is the same but the embedded initramfs is different for CM7.

wait...I thought it was because you used the wrong PIT file for your device that is causing it to be bricked.

There's the gapps if you want them. Flash with CWM.

Wow Nice.
First time flashing it did it in like 4 seconds and i was like WTF. I tried turning on but it was stuck on the samsung logo.
After the second time, idk what i did but it did take like a min to flash and it booted up pretty quick for first time.
So far pretty happy with it. But thats just me i've only had it for like 10 min.
Ill keep you updated.
For the meantime i can confirm it works..
Also can confirm gapps work to. Thanks.

Thanks. I have seen the fast flash also, I think it's because /system is (or isn't) mounted in recovery.
Unfortunately, Samsung has to be different from every other standard Android device. They use a single image for kernel, recovery, and normal boot. So you're stuck with my recovery files for CM7. I'm still learning the details of how the recovery is supposed to work...

As long as i have a stable CM7 Im good..
Yeah really stable. Though the launcher is kinda slow other than that everything is snappy really ♥ the theme option. Well anyways man good job. Best rom ever. Now i guess since we have a cm7 rom we can start building a miui.

We have indeed a cm7 rom but we need a more stable rom. I'll try this weekend to make MIUI and during next week too. (spring break! )
Not trying to sound kinda... you know, but i found a bug.
1. The soft keys at the bottom dont light up nor vibrate.
I also got some positive.
1. Some of the apps that didnt show for the SGP even with the klasic rom now show up such as go locker and a few more apps.
Ill keep you updated.
Our spring break is till next week

First time rooting / installing rom quick question
Looking to flash phone to villianrom 3.0 from what i read on the 2.4 version older posting it says to root with CF-root first. In the new 3.0 version posting it says it includes Ninphetamine kernel and the instructions assume you have clockwork mod already and can install zip from sd, Do i still need to CF-root before running 3.0 or does the Ninphetamine kernel Root automatically from the 3.0 zip??
Thanks
You need first of all a kernel wit CWM then you can flash custom firmwares through it from a .zip-file on your sd.
The new version will bring root with it through the kernel but you are not able to flash it unless you have CWM if it comes as a .zip-file
So for the first time flash a rooted kernel that includes CWM through "Odin" and then you are free to flash anything you want through CWM.
Hope that answers your question.

Could this be a problem I am having
I have rooted my phone and copied villianrom to my sd card.
When I go through CWM and delete wipe does that also wipe my root?
When I try to install the ROM i keep getting error messages
Did you install the Ninphetamine kernel first...
No good complaining its not working if you skip steps....
What kernel did you flash to get CWM ?
Should all work fine if you follow the steps presented in the VillainRom post...

im not to familiar with Frankenstein kernels. what you should of done is rooted first your phone with one of the CF kernels..do that through odin..that will get your phone rooted..once you do that then you can flash any rom you like but always follow the guide from the thread of the rom you going to flash
EDIT: if you flash CF-root your rooted..go to development original and go on the thread and follow the guide...its through odin if i remember well its been a while lol but once you do that you will have all the perks of been rooted...
once you do that download the rom you want and just flash away through recovery or CWM manager....but do your reading and back up your rom first before you do flash

So If I flash that Kernal and then install villianrom through CWM then it should work and still be rooted?
Nope that isn't CWM.
Jep, follow the steps for CF-root, then from the rom and then all will be fine and with root.

Ok think I am getting it now, not sure why I am so stupid this time as I have rooted my Hero and Orange San Francisco first time around.
One last thing.
Is ROM Manager and CWM the same?
I have ROM Manager installed and my phone is rooted, can I not just flash the CF-ROOT from my sd card?
Instructions - If you already have CF-Root
- Copy the zip file to your SD card
- Stop sharing SD card with computer over USB, unplug the cable, etc
- Applications -> CWM -> Flash kernel. Select the ZIP file on your SD card.
- Done
I think RomManager is just an app that can flash roms, do backups and other things by using CWM.
But I'm not that familiar with Rom Manager so I don't know much about it.
As I said I don't know what things you can do with RomManager but I would flash the kernel with Odin, thats the save way.
For the instructions...I think that means if you have a previous version of CF-Root and already have CWM.

So installing that Kernal will not cause any harm if my phone is already rooted?
No.
Even if it would you could just flash a stock firmware back again and start from zero.

Another thing I have noticed is when I wiped my phone it reset itself as normal but all my media and photos where still there even though I copied them over to my sd card just incase, is this normal?
No problem.
Jep that is normal. It just wipes your system. If you want to wipe your phone of all your files and reset the system than you need to do it with a combination in the dialer. *2767*3855# but watch it...the process starts right after you insert the # no question if you really want to!

i have a little problem:
i just installed cyanogen 10, and all went great, except it won't do anything
it's just the blue icon on the start, and it's like that for hours, until the battery over
is there something i can do, or is complety bricked?
Doesn't sound like everything went all that great then!
What recovery did you use to flash the ROM? Did you wipe the device as per instructions first? Can you reboot into recovery mode? What ROM were you on before?
Just as a tip, you'll have to provide more detail and show you are trying to resolve the problem or you will find yourself on your own more often than not...

well, i'm kinda new to this, so i used this post on xda:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1803593 (my samsung tablet is 10.1, not 10.1v, i don't know if it makes the diference)
there was step 7 that says:
7. Once in recovery: clean cache & clean dalvik cache. (I did a full wipe to be sure I don't report bugs to pershoot which are linked to data problems).
and i remember clean cache, but the dalvik cache i couldn't find it
the rom i had was the same from the store, androind 3.2 i guess
and yes, i can go to the recovery mode, what can i do?
The first thing you shouod always to before flashing roms is make a backup in CWM recovery. If you have a backup then go to restore in recovery and restore it ans start over. Dalvnik cache is in the advanced section of CWM recovery. So is format system if you need to that per the instruction provided by the rom's OP.

i didn't made a backup, so there is any file that can bring the old system back (android 3.2) ?
or is it possible to do directly on the CWM menu? (if there is, how do i do it? )

Your going to have to use ODIN to get back to stock 3.2. Use the Unrooting process outlined I this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1474971. THIS WILL WIPE YOUR SD CARD PARTITION. From there, reflash clockworkmod recovery with ODIN, but use the one provided by pershoot on his blog if you plan to flash one of his experimental CM builds. Goodluck! Follow all steps carefully, perform all necissary wipes. Oh and the first thing to do after you flash clockworkmod is perform a backup!

Yes, but for that you will need root. Place the play store apk in system/app and give it permissions -r -r -w

Hello guys,
I have a problems, ive Flash my Sam-T859 and it seemed to work fine for almost a month but a few hours ago i was playing a Game (Contract Killer 2) and it just crashed and started doing the boot loop thing.
Ive Been on google all day non stop following instructions that lead to dead ends.
Ive used Odin3_v1.85 and did the "PDA" thing and it passed but went right back into the boot loop.
i read somewhere that a guy had the same problem i did but somehow figured it out. He wasnt sure how he fixed it but he said he thought it was because he needed a legit .Tar file so if someone could direct me to that would be most appreciated.

if you are rooted....
...boot into recovery and wipe data,cache,dalvik cache ( dalvik is under advanced )...now reboot.
if you are not rooted...
...boot to stock recovery and wipe cache..reboot. If that doesnt work. Then i would go to sammobile .com and find the original firmware that your device came with and i would odin that...if that doesnt work. Then you are going to need a pit.file and use odin but you will repartition the sdcard this time.
google what ive told you here so you have a better understanding of what im saying.....and let me know.

see if you can just wipe data...

also...did you try to flash a new version of cwm recovery...i see droidbasement has one built specifically for your device....i believe im correct in that you have the t-mobile variant of the 10.1 galaxy tab...could you also tell me if it is a wifi only variant or does it have a sim card...im assuming it has a sim card,being that it is a t-mobile variant...but assumptions in this kind of ( work..lol ) can lead to getting a new coaster..lol

ok...now were cookin..lol
im also assuming it has a seperate kernal and recovery partition....like my p7510 wifi only variant..
if this is correct...i would either use odin to flash a newer recovery or adb to push the recovery zip file to the device..if you push the zip..just flash it..then reboot recovery and try to do your wipes and flash a rom..
this is a long shot...but im baving trouble finding the original firmware tar..if this doesnt work...i would say our next step would be to flash a kernel in recovery or odin..then flash a rom that is compatible with the kernel..i know this sounds like its redundit....but im thinking your recovery or kernel might be clashing..if not seen it before on this device...but i have seen it on other devices..

well buddy...after reading back through your post...i think you flashed something wrong with odin....but since you have odin mode/download mode and recovery still available...
i think we need to flash a recoveryl with odin....go to droidbasement and download that recovery tar...follow the instruction and flash it with odin,making sure only what is said to be checked in odin is checked.
next....use your pc to push a rom to your device...
boot recovery and wipe data...cache...dalvik cache(under advanced) and format system(under advanced)...then flash rom and gapps...reboot...enjoy
let me know if you cant google what you need and ill link you to the recovery....but im rooting and installing a rom on my buddies new note 3 and its crazy new to me....so im busy...but ill keep checking my notifications about every 20 minutes if you post something...

I couldn't read it either so I used Google Chrome and had Chrome translate it for me. Basically the recovery is an apk and there is a chinese rom. I have tried the recovery but I have NOT tried rom yet and not sure if I want too as everything will most likely be in chinese.
The recovery Failed to restore the backup it made. It gave the following error
E:format_volume failed to unmount "/system"
Error while formatting /system!

Lol, NP, someone has got too
Not installing anything on my phone that is not at least blessed by the devs here.
It's a site where I can't read the language and the app does things that I have no clue about.
Risk it if you want, but if you end up with a dead device or spyware; don't say I didn't warn you.
it's Chinese rom . I have already flash the rom and worked well
I'm guessing this is probably the same thing as the Chinese recovery that was "discovered" a couple weeks after the phone was released, just being rediscovered. Even if it's something different, if it's an .APK it's more than likely a flash tool rather than a recovery, seeing how the bootloader hasn't been unlocked and all. Also pretty sure it was a Chinese user who posted the other "recovery" and said it worked well for all functions. I dunno about anyone else, but seeing how I'm on Verizon (in the USA) and speak English, I have no use for a "Chinese ROM." Hopefully this goes without saying, but as tech_head said if you try flashing this "ROM" don't expect to have a working G3 when you're done. :silly:

may be U r right. I just post it here to see if someone can fix the problem.and the'' rom '' also have English language.. whatever I am not the guy who make this..
Hurray
This Rom works 100%! I'm on it right now after switching the language from Chinese back to English it is like a daily driver. We should get a dev to see this! Plus I translated the forum through Google chrome and it is a development forum for the vs985. EDIT: No Data and Random reboots only known issues.
hmmm. ill be looking into this later
I've been using this Chinese CWM bootstrap APK for the longest.... well really only a month because that's how long I've had my G3... I've used this in combination with the kitkat deodexer tool to create a deodexed stock rom which works perfectly.... This CWM is also useful in flashing general mods like the pure audio mod for instance also perfectly flashes (adds a nice volume boost as well).. HOWEVER, people are right to be sketchy about it. For one thing, I don't think this installs any spyware on your phone like some have suggested, but it's by no means a full proof recovery either... yes system backups work, but don't dare try to restore it by any means or you'll get an error after it wipes your system to begin restore, and then you'll have to flash back to stock. Also don't do anything stupid like try and flash TMobile roms to your Verizon G3, because even though it will allow you to flash it and say it completed successfully, you will be overwriting your kernel with an insecure kernel and you will not be able to boot your device up at all.... also if you do something this stupid, you will also block yourself from being able to flash back to stock because your phone will think it's a D851 and not a VS985... Finally, I'd also avoid flashing this Chinese rom... yeah it worked and booted for me, but I had no 4g... I'm sure that if you back up your apn settings beforehand, you'll be fine, but still I'd just avoid it. So long story short, use this recovery, but don't expect miracles from it. Devs should really look into decompiling this bootstrap apk and fixing the mount points, and then we'd have a full functioning tethered CWM.

Install of your zip is working great except I'm missing the LG Keyboard.
with very little activity lately for the LGV20, specifically the H918 T-Mobile variant, I created a TWRP flashable package for the recent H91810q release. this zip flash every partition included in the latest KDZ package with the exception of recovery to keep TWRP. standard disclaimer applies, you do all of this at YOUR OWN risk! because 10q is not rootable, you need to be root'd before flashing this! failure to do so will probably cause you to lose root and/or lose TWRP! and worst of all, because 10q can't be downgraded to 10j (last version where you can still obtain root via dirtycow) because of Anti-RollBack, you're fscked!
NOTE1: you can find the partitions that will be flashed in the updater-script. to be extra cautious you can back up all of the partitions that will be overwritten with the following: dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/{partition} of=/external_sd/backup/{partition}.img.
NOTE2: boot partition has been modified only to remove rctd, nothing else so I consider this to still be stock
Instructions:
download H91810u.zip file listed below and put on microSD card
download your choice of root and put on microSD card, choose from either Magisk or SuperSU *Note: v12.0 of Magisk does not work with the LGV20 device in general and v14.0 is recommended.
backup any data from internal "SD card"
boot into TWRP (requires TWRP recovery to already be installed)
create a TWRP backup of the device
flash zip from microSD card by using "Install"
FLASH YOUR CHOICE OF ROOT - Flashing root is VERY IMPORTANT BEFORE REBOOTING!
reboot
profit!
Download:
H91810q.zip
old 10q md5sum: 8c2e76ded9759a63b1ffac86f3941649
new 10q md5sum: c7d4086b3a0a786d1501ef7e4ce22f32 - re-zipped in Linux for proper alignment
H91810r.zip
wrong 10r md5sum: 9e2e1f8c56079d7bf629ce5e375d7551 (this is actually the md5sum for the KDZ)
correct 10r md5sum: 194b2bc41aa6dbdd7b9a371392f7b930
H91810s.zip
10s md5sum: f187fdefe4c3612c5811e9fbeb0748c5
H91810t.zip - rctd and triton both disabled, previous versions only removed rctd
10t md5sum: b00c2f644b15eb15e459c48830caa5da
H91810u.zip - rctd and triton both disabled, previous versions only removed rctd
10u md5sum: f51b2b11a30dc448b0da0edc750bb587
Flashing Process (what flashing this zip does):
flash necessary partition images with the exception of recovery (to keep TWRP) from the KDZ
rename /system/recovery-from-boot.p to /system/recovery-from-boot.bak to prevent stock recovery from being installed on boot
wipes dalvik-cache and cache
BIG thanks to @McNutnut on guidance, as well as his script to put all of this together!
also thanks to @bullghost for the KDZ extractor (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600575)
@Tilde88 for the original updater-script template w/root (https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/us996-nrd90m-modded-notsostock-rom-v5-1-t3526542)

Dude, thanks for whipping this out so fast! (TWSS) I will get right on making a debloated rom from this. Is it ARB 1?
So I HAVE to flash root? Sometimes I don't flash root because of my gear S3 watch.
I just flashed but still showing 10p. But the kernel info shows Sept 12. So the kernel is updated but wondering on why it still shows 10p on software info @ about phone.

First of be advised that this is anti roll back. Once on it you can't go backwards to other older roms. In reference to your problem you'll have to do a battery pull. Put battery back in. Now hold down volume down and power button at the same time, when you see LG screen release power button for two seconds then push again holding down power. During all this never release volume down. Now you'll get a reset screen with yes and no option. Use volume key to choose yes, twice..... This will get you back to TWRP. In your case I wouldn't even bother with back up but you can try again if want. What I would do is flash something else that I know works. Then decide from there what to do... Maybe redownload again. May be corrupt some how. I assume your on h918. Hope so! Good luck.

Well we really don't know if your system went to 10q now, so........ You can try again. On both, the backup or 10q. Since you know now how to get to TWRP with battery pull you can try both, see what works. Try backup first. If it doesn't work you may have system in 10q now being you backed up a 10k system may not work now. If it doesn't try q again. If that doesn't work then download 10p or redownload 10q and side load on TWRP from computer. Then flash again. These are steps I would do.. if someone tells you different then it's your choice. Different ways for different things.

so 10q is showing up. i am having issues with the modem i believe because i dont get tmobile recepetion and as soon as i put into airplane mode, the error message stops.
I haven't tried the 10p weta kernel yet but it may not work being this stock kernel on 10q is updated to the September security patch. May try later today.
First off, thanks for keeping my beloved H918 alive!. Thought all future dev for the V20 was dead.
Now a question. Any timeframe on a debloated version? Not in a hurry mind you, just curious.
