Rooting method for V20 (modified rooting by Lelus) - LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769

I've made some changes to my previous modification of Lelus rooting method to work on V20 firmware.
All actions is like for old method for V10, except what must patch other .bin file from firmware. For V20B P765 CIS this is LGP765_AP[11].bin.
How to patch:

I've added busybox app from market into rooting procedure because this is important to reinstall busybox applets after rooting.

Good news. That means we can root without unlocking bootloader. Right? Can we have something similar on cmw?

You're right. CMW only by 2ndinit. I've tried 2ndinit CWM for v10 with no success - it starts (keys flashes at boot) but hung on LG logo. Suspect this happens because v20 have new kernel.

Good one angrywolf90 :good: Good for those who dont want to unlock bootloader.
please make proper full-length guide? I know all the steps. But the image is not very clear? attach GIF image inside zip file. XDA reduces image size and also reduces quality of images.
AREMCEE's "Rooting JB" method is more easy and faster, for People with already Unlocked Bootloader or who want to unlock bootloader. They dont need to edit bin and flash. just push CWM in fastboot mode and use flashable root file.

I don't have much free time for this right now. Steps exactly same as guide for v10, except file to patch and text to change.

Surely CWM method more simpler, but not for people, who want to keep their warranty for phone. And on 4PDA.RU some peoples complain what they unable to get in fastboot mode to unlock bootloader...

Sorry for off-topic, but I am responding to your information.
Mostly its drivers issue. Phone is not to blame. LG USB drivers include drivers for both ADB and FASTBOOT mode.
I think for unlocking you dont need fastboot mode. Actually "adb reboot oem-unlock" this command is given in ADB mode and it starts fastboot mode, which then asks user to just press VOL+ key for unlocking. Now I dont understand why they are not able to put phone in ADB mode and not able to shoot this ADB command?
Thanks for the IMAGE, its much clear and I have made small FILE WITH FEW PERFECT EDITED LINES to paste in said BIN file with the help of any HEX EDITOR. Should be pasted in overwrite mode of cursor.

It's not a drivers case. Phone is just reboot in responce to "adb reboot oem-unlock" command. No matter to which drivers installed on your system (And what if I've see such thing on my Linux machine? Which drivers you suggest to install? Phone just reboots and thats all. Sad but true.)

With my HEX editor it can't be done like this (yes, I'm old fart who don't want to use some new cool modern tools ), your file much better if user know how to deal with it.

I dont know what to say but it worked for everyone here, except very few people who may be not more familiar with basic terms and are less experienced.

Few weeks back (4 mar) I made this simple and small guide to EDIT BIN file, but almost everyone overlooked.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38750385&postcount=47
If read with patience it clearly explains how to edit (paste) bin file.
Please have a look. The link was also given in OP of same thread, but unfortunately it was forgotten by all. I think I should have made it in new thread so some of the pals might have noticed it.
Just for the support of this thread I would like to say that, this attached patch bin file and this small guide will be helpful to make your own HEX EDITED BIN FILE for rooting Jelly Bean on L9.

Super Thanks Bro
This tutorial is Very Helpful and Should Be Pinned
Copying files from phone to PC was Killing Me
Okay, i have a serious question
First of all, yes i have read in TONS of articles, blogs, and many forums about the problem i have, and it could be useful for everyone if we get sorted out.
See, my phone has locked bootloader. even if i unlock it with s1tool, it wont enter fastboot mode (because fastboot mode is disabled, and no one knows how to enable it apart from paying someone with stool or omnius. and YES, I DID THE PROCEDURE PRESSING THE CORRECT BUTTON AND EVERYTHING, IT'S NOT ABOUT ME NOT KNOWING HOW TO FASTBOOT). so, even if i unlock my bootloader, i cannot flash kernels because i can't enter fastboot mode.
BUT!
My phone is rooted, which means I can flash roms and practically anything that's not a kernel through recovery mode (x-parts) in zip files, right? So, here's my question:
What if I extract the contents of the kernel IMG file, and then make a flashable zip file out of it? Would it work to flash my kernel? I would have tried it before asking, believe me, but I do not know how to extract a IMG kernel file
Thanks in advance

Whether it works or not ,IDK ,You should Ask some Dev whom works with Kernels ,I guess there's a reason why in sony devices we Always use .img files instead of .zip when it comes to kernels
Anyway
to Extract IMG Files You can try The following programs (Windows)
Alcohol 120% , UltraISO , Nero
you don't have to buy anything ,you can work it out with trial :good:

man, i did verify if my bootloader was unlocked through both s1tool and flashtool, both tell me i have unlocked bootloader (give me a code like r384u28 instead of R384u28) so yes I HAVE UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER, but can't enter fastboot anyway :crying: for ****s sake
i would pay for it to be unlocked, really, but i live in Chile and no one knows **** about anything around here. if anyone could do it for me, i could make a bank transfer or something since i don't (and can't) have a business card or something like that (because of the ****ty laws around here, requiring people to win lots of money before getting a credit card or stuff like that).
anyone knows what can i do? ):

i stated in a previous post that i did the correct procedure to enter fastboot, so again, here's what i do/did:
-before everything, i installed busybox, correct fastboot drivers, correct phone drivers, proper adb drivers, etc
-flashed some roms with both flashtool and cwm, so my cable is not the problem, neither is my cellphone hardware since i can flash stuff
-many, many times, and in many, many different ways i turned off my phone, pressed the menu key and without letting go the menu key i connected the usb cable (also tried vol up, vol down, home key, etc)
-never heard any "connected hardware" sound from windows
-never got the blue light for more than 2 sec, then it started charging the phone instead, with green light
so yes, I DO KNOW THE PROCEDURE, really, i'm not that noob you know, been trying this for months actually
that's the problem, because i've tried everything and nothing seems to work, so looks like i gotta pay someone with wotan server, se tool 2, omnius or something like that, but here in chile there is NO ONE, and i really mean NO ONE who knows even what those programs do
and here i come to you my dear friends... thanks to all who try to help me

yes, sorry... i didn't mean to be rude, i was just clarifying it's not the common problem every noob has, it's something more than that
i cannot unlock via the official way (sony site, right?) because my phone says "unlock bootloader allowed: no", so it won't let me (won't enter fastboot anyways)

rebuilding back to ftf is not possible usually they are cooked by the developers and ziped file by signing it so tht u can flash through CWM recovery
if u know any other way than this please post the link to this thread so tht it will help in future
I think this thread should be in Xperia threads as a sticky since ftf files r more or less found only in Xperia line up...

if you want to modify the V20 version . you should find the words like this "#!/system/bin/sh" , and it should be the file of NO.11 or NO.12

Flashing JB to JB shouldnt cause any issues, Im not 100% sure on this though. I moved from the mexican V20A to the vietnam V20A without any issues.

oh, maybe i will try mexican v20a then moved to philippines 20a
Edit: have you tried to flash jb (20a ph) to (20a ph) ex. you are already in mexican 20a then you flash also mexican 20a bec you will put the edited bin, did you encounter any problem?
also im confusing bec. there is no existing folder name PHONE" in "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users
\Application Data\LGMOBILEAX\Phone" whats should i do?
Sorry, I'll sort you out with the edited bins very soon, on the bus home from work . I'll upload them on this post. Hopefully cmahendra will be able to add them to his post too.
I havnt tried the phili version of V20A, but the file sizes of that KDZ and the vietnam KDZ are the same, im guessing only the basebands are different.
Edit: Here is the hex edited file for the Telecom Concepts KDZ http://www.multiupload.nl/H70CX1EH46
As for the phone folder, you have to make sure your computer is set to view hidden folders, and also, the folder isnt always there (it disappears during the update sometimes). Once you start the KDZ update, you have to watch the LGMOBILEAX folder until the phone directory is there, then wait for the files to start appearing in the folder. Once the [11] file is created, paste the modded one into the folder and overwrite.
Edit again: Just read that on XP the folder location is slightly different. - "In one of the rarest case, in WIN XP machine the folder was found here "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\LGMOBILEAX\Phone"

@donk165 how about cmw recovery what did you use on your p768?
Woo, glad your all rooted now! As for CWM, I just used the recovery installer app by artas. I kept having problems trying to do the bootloader method. This way is nice and simple. Just make sure busybox and su are both up to date and running fine, then just run the app and click install.

Sorry, I'll sort you out with the edited bins very soon, on the bus home from work . I'll upload them on this post. Hopefully cmahendra will be able to add them to his post too.
I havnt tried the phili version of V20A, but the file sizes of that KDZ and the vietnam KDZ are the same, im guessing only the basebands are different.
Edit: Here is the hex edited file for the Telecom Concepts KDZ
As for the phone folder, you have to make sure your computer is set to view hidden folders, and also, the folder isnt always there (it disappears during the update sometimes). Once you start the KDZ update, you have to watch the LGMOBILEAX folder until the phone directory is there, then wait for the files to start appearing in the folder. Once the [11] file is created, paste the modded one into the folder and overwrite.
Edit again: Just read that on XP the folder location is slightly different. - "In one of the rarest case, in WIN XP machine the folder was found here "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\LGMOBILEAX\Phone"

[ROOT] Root your LG-G3 easily with PurpleDrake-Lite! [OSX/Linux/Windows!]

Howdy all!
What's this? Read on, dear reader, to discover the magic that is PurpleDrake.

}
What is this?
This is a utility to easily root your LG G3 (specific models only). It's a fairly foolproof script that includes all the dependencies you'll need for getting your phone rooted easily.
This is the LITE version. This means that this version will only ROOT your phone. If you have a T-Mobile G3, we'd suggest you look for the full version in this same forum on XDA, since that will root, install TWRP, and prevent your root checker from showing your phone as rooted!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Who made this?
This root is a collaboration between myself (IOMonster), jcase, and autoprime.
Special thanks also to beaups for some initial guidance looking at the vulnerable application.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Is my phone compatible?
The new LG G3 models each are slightly different with regards to rooting and unlocking.
The vulnerability we're exploiting for PurpleDrake has actually been present on quite a few LG phones for some time, and as such this script will automatically detect if your phone is capable of rooting with this method.
To see a matrix of which LG G3 phones are compatible with this root, please see this Google Docs spreadsheet that we've compiled.
When you run this program, your phone will reboot and run a test to see if it's compatible. If the application succeeds, it'll let you know that it's able to permaroot you. If not, it'll fail gracefully and reboot you back to normal Android without having changed anything.

How do I use this?
WE NOW SUPPORT WINDOWS! YAY ME
To start, for either platform you'll need to scroll down to the download section and get the file.
Ensure that your phone is in ADB mode (PTP Mode for everyone but Verizon. Verizon users need to be in "Internet"/"Ethernet" mode)
Linux Instructions (in a terminal!)
Extract the file you downloaded...
tar xvf ~/Downloads/PurpleDrake-Lite_VERSION.tar.gz
Mark the application as executable, and run it!
cd PurpleDrake-Lite
chmod +x purpledrake_linux.sh
./purpledrake_linux.sh
OSX Instructions (just a bit easier)
Extract the file you downloaded
Double-click on "purpledrake_osx"
Windows Instructions
Extract the file you downloaded
Double-click on "purpledrake_windows"
The application will guide you through all the steps you need.
You will still need to install SuperSU from the market after installing PurpleDrake. This pack does not include one.
After, be sure to check @autoprime's post for how to disable OTA upgrades! here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54254062&postcount=2
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But, what if I don't want to run your script to root?
Well then, I'd be a little hurt, but you can still do everything the script does manually.
Download the package, and extract it. Open a terminal in the main folder of the archive and run these commands:
Code:
adb reboot --bnr_recovery
adb push ./assets/start_restore /temp/start_restore
adb push ./assets/permaroot.bin /temp/start_restore
adb reboot
That will perma-root you, however there's no protection from doing something stupid or the phone being incompatible. Please be careful!

Click to collapse
Where do I get this?
WINDOWS/OSX/LINUX VERSION OUT NOW!
- Fixed Windows support
- Fixed OSX ADB issues not detecting phone first try
- Fixed race conditions leading to errors permarooting
- Added 64-bit Linux ADB
Code:

Thanks so much! How can I show my appreciation?
Since this was a collaboration project, proceeds that are made from this root will be split between amongst us so we can purchase a Sprint test phone to root (as it's currently not rooted).
If you'd like to donate to us, click the "Donate to me" button on the left sidebar under my name, and be sure to enter a comment to let us know that you're donating towards the PurpleDrake project.
Thanks again!

Disable OTA:
Open LG Hidden Menu (3845#*851#) --> WLAN Test --> OTA Setting --> OFF
*Replace "851" with your devices model number, 850, 852, 855 etc...
Look, instead of rushing to take an OTA to get the latest software.. think for a moment.
We do no know if the bootloader will stay "unlockable" in future updates. OTA's can update not only software..
but the boot stack as well.. enabling features to block downgrades.. close exploits.. and all sorts of fun stuff.
so.. instead of taking an OTA.. wait for the files to get posted so we can look at things first.. possibly only updating /system, /boot, /modem (maybe tz/rpm)
without updating the rest of the boot stack. ya... do that. Plan on making a lil thread on this soon to make things easier.
EFS Backup:
Code:
[FONT="Arial Narrow"][B]Backup EFS after jailbreaking your G3. EFS is split into 2 partitions modemst1 and modemst2.
img files will be on root of internal sdcard. Save the .img files somewhere else besides the sdcard... email, cloud, etc..[/B]
I have made a new thread on EFS backup and restore which can be found [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/efs-lg-g3-efs-backup-restore-t2907329"]HERE[/URL].

Download the tmo .tot file and use lg flash to restore it to stock. itll format everything on internal sdcard so backup anything u may need off it.
T-Mmobile firmware can be found [URL="http://downloads.codefi.re/wolfgart/LG_G3/D851"]here[/URL]. Thanks to [user=608699]@wolfgart[/user] for the files and [user=1157052]@thecubed[/user] for codefire hosting.
*Step by step picture guide - [url]http://imgur.com/W83hMPE[/url]
install the drivers.
put phone into Download Mode (power off. unplug USB. pull battery. put battery back in. press/hold Volume Up then plug in USB cable.)
In Windows Device Manager set the phones serial COM port to #41. (*see picture guide for help)
Install LG Flash. In "C:\LG\LG Flash" folder delete megalock dll. Replace with .dll below.
new megalock dll - [url]http://bit.ly/1cQADXm[/url] (this site includes a "download manager.. UNCHECK THE BOX before downloading dll file.)
Run LG Flash in the "C:\LG\LG Flash" folder. Select korean factory if asked.
When LG Flash opens you will see a box to select firmware and dll.
Select LG Flash (.dll).
Select (.tot)
Hit OK (*see picture guide for help)
Hit yellow start button. If you get Milkyway error click ok. LG Flash will then run a crc check on the tot file. Takes a bit.
After crc check finishes unplug the phone. plug phone back in. it should now be seen in LG Flash and start flashing.
Phone will reboot when finished. You may end up on a screen with s "2"... let it sit there for a minute or two.
If stuck on "2" try unplugging the usb cable from the phone.. wait 10 seconds.. then plug the usb cable back in. now wait 30 seconds and hopefully it changes to a "3"
Once the phone says "3" you can unplug the USB.. remove the battery and plug back in.. boot back up... you are now 100% stock.

Thanks for the awesome work, devs!
Has anyone figured out what the hidden menu code is for the vzw vs985, to be able to turn off ota? Plugging in "985" for the model number doesn't work.
Will there be a method to turn off/reset root counter for those of us who used IOroot?

I can confirm that it worked on the D855 euro (10A). so you guys can go ahead and remove the question mark if you want. Also if you give me the right commands I can check if the 855 eur bootloader comes unlocked or not(google doesn't know them )
For me relaunching two times worked with d855 european version v10g leaked. But what about TWRP for D855?

ioroot is better
much thanks to iomonster jcase and dees_troy. glad i could play a part in this rad-ness.
I would be careful taking OTA's.. wouldnt want to lose an unlock(too early to say..)
Disable OTA:
Open LG Hidden Menu --> WLAN Test --> OTA Setting --> OFF
(This worked on LG G2.. hopefully work on G3 but won't be confirmed until OTA comes out)
Hidden menu = 3845#* then model then #.. so 3845#*851# --> 3845#*850# --> 3845#*855# etc etc

Is there a different method for the Verizon models? I tried this but could not access the menu.
this root method works on 10G
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-...wrp-root-twrp-tmo-lg-g3-t2821005/post54258277
ofcourse using the corresponding file for d855 from THIS thread.
Thanks !!! Good work!!!!
Works with D855 10g on os x

Works on the F400S. Probably the easiest thing I have ever done in my life.
Is there a way to check root on LG G3 though? I don't see the SU app, though I can use Titanium Backup without a problem.

Guys,
who tried this method with European D855 (3/32) model with E/F/G fw's but also taking a TWRP from the thread with full package?

The d855 have a locked bootloader, that's why it will not work!! No recovery for us, at the moment!! We have to wait.

[Tutorial] Make any Gear S rootable

Hello everyone. This is my first tutorial with Gear S so I hope it will help someone.
First of all
I am not responsible for any damage done to you device​I saw in this Tutorial thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-s/development/definitive-guide-to-rooting-gear-s-t2973455, that some people have unsupported firmware versions and they can't root they'r device. It is not true. You can root your device, if you will follow this simple guide.
What do you need:
1) Gear S
2) Charging cradle with USB cable
3) PC running Windows (because windows is only OS I know XD)
4) Odin 3.09: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4xXHWEm81OleU0wckt0S2pjSU0
5) supported firmware downloaded from here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-R750/ (it is just on you which one do you pick, but it must be supported in the root thread)
6) Drivers: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4xXHWEm81OlT1ZBeXdHYXZqQTA
If you have everything downloaded you can proceed to the tutorial it self​Step by step firmware changing guide:
1) Unzip downloaded software and install drivers
- you should end with one .MD5 file and one .dll file (I am not sure, if the .dll is needed)
2) Open Odin 3.09

}
- Here you have to Tick AP, click on AP and select your .MD5 file
-you should start to see something like this (wait until it says leave CS..)
- you can continue if you see this
3)Untick Auto reboot
4) Enable USB-Debugging on Gear S
- Settings -> Gear Info -> USB Debugging
5) Put your gear S into download mode
https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=qwcf79m9ycw
- credits go to cipherswitch
6) Connect your gear S to PC
- you should see this
7) Click start and wait till it is done
- when it is done you will see this
8)Wait till Gear S reboot
- Now just look at the firmware page and there should be new software version
If you have an error
-repeat everything but with different firmware version
P.S.: Sorry if you can't see pictures, so if you have problem just look into attachment they are listed here

I downloaded the exact same one from sammobile then I flashed the AOA7 root file from the root thread and it works fine. The software version will still be AOA7 but I think the baseband will be APC1 but mine is working flawlessly. Also you could still flash stock AOA7 first then root but theres no need as I've tested it.

If you were to load android os well then su will probably be available.

updates for RMX2155 model are not being available via settings, it seems to be some kind of sever issue, you can manually update by using sp flash tool, but only do this if you know what you are doing, this will delete your data.
also unlocked bootloaders are facing similar issues with updates, you should relock the bootloader if you want to update.
you can unlock/relock bootloader by using these kind of tool (MTK universal v5)

Follow this tutorial:
But instead of stock a53(RUI1) frimware you need for download F09(RUI3) frimware for rmx2151, can't paste link here because it will be removed,
After extraction of Ofp file you'll get multiple super.img and one supermap.xml type file..
You only need one super.img, for that you'll need simg2img.exe,
After downloading simg2img.exe put it in the same folder where you extracted the ofp and open cmd in the same folder,
And type following command "simg2img.exe super.xxx.img super.yyy.img super.zzz.img super.img"
where x,y,z will be replaced by names present in supermap file ..
Then you'll have a new file in ofp folder named super.img,
Follow rest of the tutorial afterwards...
You also might need to unlock bootloader.
so im looking at realmefirware(.com) but i cant find the F09 firmware only the C.19 version idk if thats it
I also checked the link in the tutorials description and the codename is RMX2163 and i also dk if its the right files
the last thing i wanna do now is to brick my device

Btw u thing rooting is worth it (not only for the custom roms but for the modules and the endless possibilities that root unlocks)

Depends on the situations,
If you have only one phone and you are a corporate guy, then its probably not worth it
Also now a days most of the little customisations(including custom roms) can be achieved without root.
However if you plan to root your secondary phone and do all kind of kinky stuff with it then its absolutely fun,
Root always comes with risk.

btw dude can u share any guide on this one cause it seems its the only way ( at least for me ) to unlock my bootloader cause i cant do it thru the deep test (or in-depth test ) idk why.
Unlocking the bootloader might be more useful for me rather than flashing back to rui3.0
thx for all the help fam very much appreciated

No problem buddy, just keep searching for solutions.
Orange state is just a msg to inform you that your boot loader has been unlocked,
while in recovery format and wipe data, then reboot.
And next time try to add images also.
And if you plan on using sp flash tool it doesn't matter if your phone is booting or not.

So to get this right
Once I unlock the bootloader I will get into the the Orange state which I will able to bypass by formating (wipe data) on my phone and I should be able to boot again right ? On the original rom
And from there I will be able to install the TWRP custom recovery in which I can install my custom rom ?
Right?
