And like no other development section. Please make backups before taking this journey with me and im not liable for your messed up bricked device's so CONTINUE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
A ton of this info is coming from freaktab.com and some other russian/german sites that ive found. Including the chinagadgets.com updates page for the m8 boxes.

:::::::::::The links::::::::::::
Root:
Rooting these boxes seems to be incredibly simple. They are either prerooted or can be done easily.
Kingoroot app , and kingo superuser app got me enough access to Install img twrp via Rashr app all avalible via the playstore. As well as you can use the updater app to install roms in zip format using the stock recovery without twrp but backups are important! Theres a few recoveries out there for our boxes. Some work for the clones, some dont.
You need to verify if you have the s812 chipset or not.
**************************************************************************************************************************************************
:HOW TO ENTER RECOVERY MODE:
To enter the recovery stock or not, there are multiple methods.
Using a toothpick and pushing the reset button inside the AV port ( Harder/nonrooted )
1.) At the bottom of the AV jack hole is the reset button.
Using a tooth pick hold this button in. You know you have pressed it if you feel the click.
2.) Now plug in the power cord.
3.) While holding the reset button down, wait until you see the logo and you can then release the reset button.
done: The recovery menu should now be shown and the device should update.
ALT For rooted devices:
1.) Install romtoolbox lite and Give romtoolbox superuser permissions
2.) Use the rebooter function inside the app to enter recovery mode. (easier)
To install the custom recovery I used [Root] Rashr - Flashingtool app to install the custom TWRP recovery, this also can be used to install the image files. The images are only the recovery, or boot images for the device. Im assuming here that these images should match the firmware version you are on. IE: 4.4 needs the 4.4 boot/recovery not the 5.1 . The Zips contain the correct boot images for the roms and will flash everything in one shot. The images are a seperate source for modding as well as using the usb flash tool or the apps i suggested. The files came prezipped together to be used with the pre installed updater program on most boxes, Its alot lighter to only update what you need.

This helps me know if this is helping people and being used!
also, this work is free of charge and its motivational!
Now that the base info is up. Is anyone on this side of xda interested in getting xdas android tv boxes more orginized and displayed? If not ill just limit my work to what i developed for and move on..

Identifying the model is good, but identification of your chipset is the important part. These boxes are heavily clones and sold as whatever the distributor said it was. And a lot of times it wasnt what you thought it was.
Rkxxxxx S8xxxxx Txxxxxx Etc is how you will be locating the correct firmwares for your devices. Im hoping that in the future we can go cross platform/chipset by including the correct boot.img and xml/build.prop files for the right chips and the software will be universal (ish)
See post #2 for Universal rom Flash.
Highly suggest only using TWRP and backing up to your external SD.
the build.prop and the boot.img are both twrp flashable files.
these also can be used to put your stock boot.img or build.prop after flashing a universal softwear rom to gain all
your device specifics back. the custom one is based on m8s/+ models and was off a 16gb device so both 8/16 can flash.
you can alos use the app zipme to make your own flashable zips. great for backing up certain files.
remote.config is another one thats important to backup from your original build the device shipped with!
how to adjust twrp screeen size
screen size is to big on my tv i cant navigate some keys on my usb keyboard,, imean i cant navigate twrp properly using my navigation keys on my wireless key board...pls help thanks
Hey man first of all big thanks for the THREAD, is very hard to find some information about all of this you have no idea how this thread can help us with these android TV devices (F**** smart TV's)
So i have a S82 Plus, with the android 5.1.1, kernel 3.10.33, fimrware 101L1 and running silk and smooth the only problem for me is the remote controler that i bought... doesn't work well some keys and functions just dont work!! and i don't know why..

Big thanks for the ROMS!
I just want to say thank you for your big effort on making these ROMS! :good:
Like my username indicates, I finally got my troublesome M8S box working flawlessly with Android Lollipop, in which your Universal ROM was the key. I documented my steps in another related thread.

JUST LOOK HERE 1ST!
You've been Warned
PREQUISITS:
This is a DECRYPTED rom and requires that you are boot-loader unlocked and have access to twrp.
If you have not wiped your system and formatted data do so now, unless you want a brick...
After flashing the rom i suggest wiping cache and dalvik cache again then rebooting.
YOU NEED TO WIPE ALL DATA AND FORMAT DATA TO USE MY ROM
This is based of the ZV3 / ZV4 / ZV5 / ZV6 / ZV7 Images currently. Oct, Nov and Dec,Jan, May patched software's.
See here for the Dirty Santa root and where you gotta hit thanks at for his hard A$$ work
XDA LINK : https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/ls997vs995h910-dirtysanta-bootloader-t3519410
OK THE DISCLAIMER PART:
I can't be held responsible for the effects of this software, it was designed for testing purposes and fun.
Please make a backup, make sure you have a computer handy with adb and fastboot.
Please take sometime to read all documents before proceeding, you've been warned.
Installation Steps:
1.) Download desired Rom Version from below download link(s)
2.) Place Rom preferably on external SD card
3.) Reboot device into recovery either using Busybox, shell command, or from device powered off method. (instructions in post#3)
4.) Once in recovery its HIGHLY recommended to install on a clean device. Select Wipe, Then advanced,
put check marks next to System, Dalvik-Cache, Data, Cache
5.) Once wipe is completed, back up one step and choose FORMAT DATA, it will require you to type YES to complete.
6.) When completed return back to Main TWRP screen, Click Mount and make sure System and Data are mounted.
7.) Choose Install then Navigate to where you placed Rom ( You made need to choose SD as the storage location if you put on SD )
9.) Install Rom and wait for it to complete. Once done, select reboot and WAIT.
10.) Once on home screen you will need to manually activate your device, either go and do a Profile update in settings, or dial ##update#
This will need to be done anytime you flash a ROM as the activation information gets bypassed on my roms and most importantly ENJOY !
NOTICE:The install process will take some time (Approx 15 Min), later builds have zip-align at boot to help with de-odexed speeds, the boot logos have also been turned of on some newer builds so don't freak out, just wait until you hear the Voice assistant start her speech.
At this point the screen will be out of wack( ZV7 This is Fixed) , many moving colors and such, this is normal due to using sprints boot.img with the debug boot-loader that gave us the unlocked / root ability. Once you hear the Voice assistant start up, cover the proximity sensor near the front camera and lock the screen. Once both the top and main screen go black, just unlock the screen and continue with setup. The static image will re-occur on any full re-boot. To avoid this check out the Modified Kernels post for Alt. Kernels that resolve this. Be aware I do NOT support these other images, and i'm unable to help with issues you have if you choose that route. Please post in the Kernels page where you got the Kernel for best support!

BUGS:
* Voided Warranty Via LG
* PASS SAFETY-NET WITH MAGISK ONLY ROMS ( NOT SUPERSU )
* Static on 1st boot ( FIXED ON ZV7) that requires proximity sensor hack ( Werewolf Kernel Fixes this but adds longer boot time)
Be aware alternative kernels will break things in my Rom, by changing your kernel I can no longer help troubleshoot your issues
as I am not the developer for the kernel you choose, my stock-kernels are included with the Rom and work perfectly minus static.
* SUHIDE BY CHAINFIRE NOT WORKING ON ANY DEC PATCH FORWARD
* Must Remove LG Setup Wizard to use the additional users, hangs on setup without removing, this also messes with call-ui somewhat, when in
a call you cant leave it normally, you must hit the 3 dots in right corner and choose contacts, then you can hit home and browse phone will in
call. Not sure why these 2 are connected here, but its the case anyways.
* Device may lose System/Carrier settings after flash, do ##update# or ##brand# and let device re-activate.
*Please do not Re-Host my work or Re-use my work without Proper credits,

*Added updated 3minit resources, systemui, quicktools, sbsignuture etc.
Version 7.5B/C MagiskSU + 3Minit + ModControl
Clean or Dirty Flash OK!
If error code 7 occurs, unmout system and data and re-flash.
Mod Control By @Zacharee1
XDA Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20...-bars-t3551350
-Introduction of ModControl:
This is a new app being built directly for the V20! This is going to be the epicenter for mod adjustments that have just been made. Mod control can actually revert EVERYTHING that has been done to the ui! This can give the user complete control over the design aspect of their device without having to flash diffrent mods and reboot constatly. This app contails a ton of options and everything is sperated from eachother to provide the most custom experience ever on our V20 handsets! You must manually move the app from userapp to system app " /system/priv-app to be exact. As well as you need to give the app permission to modify storage as it replaces files on the fly to accomplish the changes.
This app is being funded by TeamDev to get into the playstore, this is purely to provide more convienece and allow the app to OTA update as we continue to tweak and modify the app. There will be 0 adverts placed in modcontrol and will be free for life. I have tagged the creator in main op multiple times so you guys can go over there and read up on the app, its progress, post feedback, as well as make REQUESTS!!! This is a awomse feature i'm proud to be a part of and hope you guys share the enjoyment here! This is also where the updated app apks are being posted for the time being until the app is approved by google! You may see a donate option appear in the app over time, please consider donations to the project but by all means do not feel obligated. The donations would be diretly to the modcontrol creator and are purely to help motivate him and cover is coffee and costs/time!
-3minit Battery & 3minit clock added to SystemUI
3minit battery has 10000's of battery icons to choose from, as well as the option to remove the battery completely.
-3minit clock can be adjusted in many ways:
center,left,right as well as 1000's of combos for time,date etc.
- Added "Userdata" to install the following apps.
*Viper4Arise (Requires The magisk module installed to work)
*MagiskManager
*ModControl - Now a system app in V7.5B or later
* Viper profiles now added to userdata
3minit will function without this app but this is the heart of the main mods!
*CF Lumen
- Re-wrote updater script to now wipe batterystats on flash, as well to re-mount, and redo busybox install. "userdata" now being installed for additional apps vs "system"
-Added inid.d into boot.img as well as Magisk retains init.d mods for systemless. Done to avoid some init.d scripts from being skipped.
-Added fully busybox run parts to system, sqlite, and a few others. This way all flashable zips should be functional with our device, regardless if magisk busybox's systemless interface works.
-Many other tweaks that i probably forgot but will add as i see fit

HELP ME PLEASE FOR ISSUES AND FIXES!
PLEASE READ THESE BELOW BEFORE POSTING WITH A ISSUE, EXPECIALLY TO DIRTY SANTA ETC!!
YOU WILL BE IGNORED IF ON THE LIST!!!
==================================
I Flashed Magisk But No Root?
=====================================
Two ways to approach this one:
Re-flash the whole Rom without wiping. Reboot.
-OR-
Pull the Magisk11.zip from inside the rom under the
/Magisk/Magisk11.zip directory, and flash it by itself and Reboot.
==================================
How do I get into recovery
=====================================
pull battery and put it back in
hold volume down and power.
when lg logo shows up click power and re hold it while still holding vol down.
if you do it right in about 4 seconds or so it will boot to a menu, choose yes both times and you'll be back in TWRP.
====================================
Stuck in a endless boot loop to twrp
=======================================
1.)Do it from twrp:
Make sure system and data are mounted with Twrp.
We need to clear out some directories causing issues. Once mounted partitions are verified go to advanced and use the file explorer buit into TWRP.
We need to delete the entire "Fota" and "Misc"
locations.
They are located under these locations
Don't worry if they aren't all there.
Delete any/all of these:
/fota
/misc
/data/fota
/cache/fota
/data/misc
/etc/fota
/system/etc/fota
Then reboot from TWRP. This should fix the issue.
Or
2.)Requires Pc and Fastboot setup already.
Pull battery and put back in, hold vol down and pulg into pc
phone will boot to Fastboot*
Now on pc send these commands via command prompt
Fastboot erase misc
Fastboot erase fota
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot reboot
still stuck? go back to fastboot as stated above
Try this as well
fastboot erase system
unplug and pull battery and put it back in,
dont plug back in, lets try to get into recovery,
hold volume down and power.
when lg logo shows up click power and re hold it while still holding vol down.
if you do it right in about 4 seconds or so it will boot to a menu, choose yes both times and you'll be back in twrp.
restore backup or re-flash a rom again..
Good-Luck!
===================================
Locked out of device after restore / dirty flash
pin # / pattern / Fingerprint wont work?
=======================================
Steps:
Boot into Twrp ( if you dont know how see above steps on how to access twrp
Using the TWRP file manager navigate to this location
/data/system/locksettings.db
delete this file and reboot device, your pin/lock is now gone.
==============================
Some apps wont login or work
===================================
These may also quire the troublesome app to be uninstalled first/and re-installed after steps completed. This is semi generic.
Alternative 1:
Download this app from the playstore to
download the latest versions of google play services,
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.weberdo.apps.serviceinfo
Open app and use it to force a update
It gives you 3 options to do so
once done reboot into recovery and clear cache and dalvik-cache
this should resolve the issue once completed
Alternative 2:
Try fully un-rooting. This will require you go into the settings
and choose full unroot. When super su asks to replace with stock image,
say no. The phone will need to reboot after it has complete. Once rebooted
try to login to the application and see if it worked. If yes then get everything logged in and then pull the supersu zip from the rom (this will be in the rootzip folder) Take it and flash it using twrp. It will reboot atleast once. Do not disrupt the process!
Alternative 3:
Depending on build you now have the alternative option to switch to fully Magisk and the phh superuser app. This is still some uncharted territory with Magisk and what exactly it does to force hide root. In the Magisk manger app you can choose to hide root. This may be buggy but have the app downloaded and go to sign in after enabling this option. If this works you are more then likely fighting the battle with safetynet and its not something I currently have much support or full understanding of. Goodluck!
=====================================
Hostpot/Tether Settings Missing
Other SystemUI things gone
======================================
Its best to do this on wifi but do it as you wish
Steps:
go to dialer
enter ##27269# (##BRAND#)
Hit Yes if prompted to do so,
the phone will reboot and add the carrier branded files back
and replace the systemui setup with the correct one!
Other Codes that do the same thing essentially : ##UPDATE# ##72786#
These will not erase any user data, so dont be worried!
=====================================
Storage Showing 0mb in Twrp? Device cant wipe any data?
=======================================
This may show error 150 in twrp when trying to wipe any data.
All of your data is gone either way, this will hopefully fix the device.
Steps: This requires twrp access still,
Go under wipe,
and choose Advanced wipe,
once there choose repair/change file system
after clicking repair file system you will now see all of your storage options here.
The storage will need to be wiped with the EXT4 Option.
You must only select 1 at a time, and they all must be wiped to resolve this issue.
Do each one down the list, and wipe every storage location 1 by 1. Once done,
back out and check to mount each partition. This show now be successful.
I would go ahead and flash a clean rom or go and restore from a backup.
*This can also fix issues with some sd cards being corrupted*
=====================================
Cant Get Service? No Calls or Text But LTE works?
=======================================

I'll have to give it a few more minutes, but I appear to be stuck on the first boot. Was already dirtycow'd. Did a clean install of this rom. First boot, it got to LG screen rebooted, past LG screen into static, behind the static is mostly white with some yellow and black lettering (sprint logo) and it appears just frozen there. I'm aware first boot takes a while. It's been an abnormally long time without any change at all - 10 minutes and change or so. I'll give it a bit longer but I'm pretty sure it's froze up.
---------- Post added at 01:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:09 PM ----------
Yeah pretty certain this isn't going anywhere. I would've been into the android optimizing apps progress bar screen well before now on first boot.

Yep definitely stuck, left it almost half an hour. So, like I said, I was on dirtycow and the sprint rom from that thread (so I'd already formatted data, had TWRP & root obviously). I wiped cache, dalvik, system, and data. Installed rom. Wiped cache & dalvik again and rebooted. Looks like I have to figure out the button combo to get into recovery for this phone. I've just been using adb reboot recovery but adb is no longer able to see the device (I tested @Tilde88's attempt at a rom the other day and was able to access adb while frozen in a similar spot).

I'll have to give it a few more minutes, but I appear to be stuck on the first boot. Was already dirtycow'd. Did a clean install of this rom. First boot, it got to LG screen rebooted, past LG screen into static, behind the static is mostly white with some yellow and black lettering (sprint logo) and it appears just frozen there. I'm aware first boot takes a while. It's been an abnormally long time without any change at all - 10 minutes and change or so. I'll give it a bit longer but I'm pretty sure it's froze up.

make sure to clean wipe and make sure you mounted system prior to flash. First boot does take some time, and will take 10-20 minutes to fully install and boot up. Be patient but if its on the sprint boot animation its on its way to fully boot from previous tests. Maybe wipe and re-install? I just wiped system fully with fast-boot and flashed again to double check things.
correct i did not add adb to the kernel because its skipps so fast you can never hit it on boot up, there is no hardware key combo to enter recovery,
pretty much if its stuck and wont boot, go to fastboot - fastboot erase system, then run step 3 from dirty santa and it will replace the boot.img and the recovery and allow adb again. Id wipe and try again with a clean flash, ive put it on 3 new devices so far and all 3 booted clean after about 15 min or so..

My bad, false alarm. I pulled the battery and gave it another shot at booting without doing anything else and sure enough I was at the initial setup screen in about 5 minutes.

Yep, clean wipe, sys was mounted, install script appeared to run without issue, waited more than 25 minutes. I have flashed and restored a handful or two of times so far on the v20 so I kind of had an idea what to expect (obv. every rom can be different, computers act weird, etc). Looked like it had frozen up but maybe it was just taking extra, extra long.

Huh, I did not realize there's no hardware combo for recovery. I kept reading hold volume down and power and do a little dance at the right second but I tried a bunch of times and couldn't hit it. In some places I read that brings you to a choice to factory reset and you have to select and confirm and then it will boot into TWRP..
Thank you for that info on adb during boot (I was about to try fastboot before just giving it another shot at booting up), and the ROM of course (I've been F5'ing this subforum for the last 2 days waiting lol, also big thanks to @me2151 and @Tilde88).

YEY, was starting to loose my high from getting it put on xda, glad you got it resolved. Hope you enjoy!
And yeah its been about 48 hours without sleep here, trying everything and anything to get the boot.img right and me5153 had one ready instantly lol! hes the real champ here, im just putting it together and making little tweaks, i wish i knew him in person wed be neck deep in some fun over the weekend for all his work~!
And so it starts
Says Esqueue, with a huge grin on his face.
So, can I just get this straight before I flash....
I'm currently running the 996 stock ROM on my Sprint ls997. In order for me to install, is it as simple as wipe Dalvik, System, Data, Cache then flash the zip?
Seems like a noob question but with talk of other boot images I got a little confused.
Just a heads up guys. I kinda got ZV5 going
Curious, how did you get Wifi calling working again? Did you have to make changes to the kernel or some system files - or was it working off the bat? Just wanting to see if it's possible to fix it for other variants, like the AT&T H910.

Yep, that simple. Thought I was stuck until I tried turning it off and back on again. It's working great so far.
Thank you sir

Or ma'am..... I don't know who you are, lol. ?
oooh. I will try this shortly. Is FM working?
As far as the Wifi calling, Prl Profile, Sprint features, Comfortview,
This was related to the Boot.img or also called the kernel, This is a device specific item that each phone would need to be
fixed and edited to work with your device/carrier. Honestly i was stuck and @me2151 had figured a way to get it to work correctly.
I have not tested Fm tuner, please let us know if it works!
as far as install procedure, please wipe all, also run the format data also, this is critical coming from the us996 roms, it needs to be clean clean clean for the first boot, all additional updates can be dirty flashed but thats on you if it FC's and is buggy.
Ill be trying to work with the other Devs here to continue to bring updates as long as i physically have the LG V20, once its EOL and ive gotten the next device ill depreciate this rom or allow a long term member to maintain or close it as fit.
Im def excited tho, this was a long 48 hours of code.. Hotspot mod is in the works, trying to get a flashable update zip out here shortly for that, but if you go to Q&A their is way to mod it yourself to get hotspot going without my help.
heres his quoted text""" @pdaddy
Download Shortcut Master Lite.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...cutmaster.lite
Open, click 3 dots in top right.
Click Search.
Type "apn".
Scroll and look for: com.lge.hiddenmenu.ModemProtocol.Apn.Settings
Click on it and launch it.
On Sprint it will say Access Points.
Then it has Sprint LTE Internet.
Click it and scroll down to Apn type.
Add ,dun to the end of everything on that line. (Example: default,mms,supl,hipri,dun)
Click the 3 dots in the top right and click save.
fyi : i added a old old old busybox to system/xbin { this was a mistake } go ahead and file browse and remove it prior to installing busybox from playstore to system/xbin
The reason im putting this out here is the device will not boot into recovery using rebootrecovery.sh script. Its hitting the old busybox install and failing. sorry =)
Please see below a pm from a junior member. For those looking for the FM radio fix please follow link in thread. I will be adding these into version 2.
@asyncsrc Hi there,
I just wanted to say thank you so much for creating this thread. I attempted to reply to the thread, but i got a response saying my account is too new. Having said that, I can confirm that it works on my LS997 device (WiFi calling, Youtube, etc).
For the FM radio, I used TWRP and installed the package (https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3964077&d=1481366148)
Sourced thread here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/help/fm-radio-u996-t3507818
The radio starts up fine with my headphones plugged in, and I'm able to listen to some local stations.
Thanks again!

I'm Proud to present a Rom for the LS997 SPRINT !
This was only achievable due to @me2151 and his awesome stock-ish sprint kernel.
Please make sure to visit the dirty Santa forum and put a thanks for him and donate to HIM if you can afford to.
This is based of the ZV3 / ZV4 Images. I'm working to get the info from the ZV5 image and add a update.
See here for the Dirty Santa root and where you gotta hit thanks at for his hard A$$ [email protected][email protected][email protected][email protected]

PREQUISITS:
This is a DECRYPTED rom and requires that you are bootloader unlocked and have access to twrp.
If you have not wiped your system and formated data do so now, unless you want a brick...
YOU NEED TO WIPE ALL DATA AND FORMAT DATA TO USE MY ROM
Ok and the disclaimer part : I can't be held responsible for the effects of this software, it was designed for testing purposes and fun only on my free time. Please make a backup, make sure you have a computer handy with adb and fastboot and take some time to read all documents before proceeding, you've been warned.
