Steps of unlocking BL(Explain or video tutorial please) - Verizon LG G3

Okay so as we all know Bootloader was unlock and they specify the steps, but im not able to do the command prompt section.(Below)
adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
dd if=/sdcard/twrp-2.8.0.0_vs985-signed.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
I have the twrp image on my storage, but i used mtp not Ethernet due to the reason that Ethernet mode won't read my phone.
Can anyone help me on how to void my warranty and get CP working
Please no hating, barely learning this stuff
Thanks!!

You need to have USB debugging enabled on your phone, adb installed on your computer and the LG drivers installed. If you have all that the steps to unlock are quite clear.
Also your phone needs to be on and you need to keep an eye on it as you will have to enable a couple of things when they pop up on your phone, one is to allow your computer to see your phone in debugging mode and the other is to Grant super user permission.

You need to be able to get the phone operating in Ethernet mode; otherwise the computer cannot pass it commands. Alternatively, you can use a terminal emulator ON your phone itself. That's what I did as I didn't want to boot my desktop rig up before I left. It works exactly the same, except you don't type "adb shell", just open the term emu and start with the SU line.

It works fine if you do it from a terminal emulator on ur phone just fyi

Can confirm. This is the way I did it since I don't have access to a computer until later tonight. Just type the exact commands (except for adb shell) in a terminal emulator and you are done.

I can also confirm this is working.

I had to download the LG updater or whatever (when you first plug the phone in; says installer) despite Win7 saying it had autoinstalled the drivers then ADB could see the device when in ethernet mode.
Also the last command didn't work (guess I didn't have the TWRP in the right place) and was forced to do a battery pull after the Factory Reset (didn't erase my data or settings), booted fine and then I just flashed the recovery with Flashify (and now can get into recovery) but YMMV.

FLASHIFY
Hey whats up the easiest way to install this is an app called Flashyify in play store works great im unlocked without using adb. Let the roms begin. Thanks for the hard work that everyone put in. Just put twrp image on phone before you open flashyify and open and install and recovery will be installed

[Q] ZTE Flash help (N9500)

I looked all over the internet for help with this phone. I rooted it for a friend and a week later, he said he restarted the phone and everything started force closing.
I troubleshot all day, and came to figure out that my only known to me as of now, is flashing CWM to it, via ADB. I am having several issues with setting up ADB, and getting the phone to communicate with my computer. Device manager DOES show that there is an ADB device installed correctly, so what would my next move be? I got the phone into FTM mode, (fastboot?) and I know that that is what I need to do to get ADB to communicate with my phone.
halp pls
Really no one can help???

CWM Beta
From Android Forums ... Thanks to Junkie2100
this is an unfinished copy of cwm, tested to be almost completely functional
standard warnings apply, use at your own risk, you try to blame me for breaking your phone i will laugh at you
instructions:
fastboot method is possible, but i will go through the terminal/adb method
download the recovery file, and put it on the root of your sd. no folders, just directly on the sd
get your phone rooted and get a copy of terminal emulator or connect to it through adb on your computer, adb will require zte drivers and the adb program on the pc. the choice is yours
fire up adb by typing
Code (Text):
adb shell
in the command prompt, if its not working you dont have adb in the directory youre in, just copy adb.exe and the two .dll files to c:\windows\system32\ and itll work from anywhere, or learn how command prompt works
or fire up terminal emulator on the phone
on adb shell or terminal emulator type
Code (Text):
su
dd if=/sdcard/flash_cwm_test2.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
you will then need to run
Code (Text):
reboot recovery
and then hit reboot when cwm comes up, if it asks to disable recovery flashing press yes or it will put stock recovery back next time the rom boots
known bugs:
unmounting doesnt work
downloads:

i apologize for it being 4shared, if someone wants to make a mirror ill put it up

[Q] Terminal Command "Stop". Phone not boot up.

Hi everyone! Please help me. I've accidentaly typed in Terminal Emulator commad "stop" with SU permissions and my phone first freezed then don't want to boot up. How can i start my phone? I can access only recovery and fastboot.
Edit: Also i can run adb commands. So the question, what command i need to run for start phone?
If you have access to fastboot you could simply use RSD Lite to reflash your phone to stock.

I don't want to flash stock then again set everything i need. I just need a correct command to run thru adb for start.
It's like "adb start" or "adb shell start", i don't know.

Honestly, i never heard of the command "stop".
You could check the documentation for adb.
Edit: There is a command called start which "restarts execution of an emulator/device instance."

Can also connect that bad boy of yours to comp and run start command in terminal. I have done this too. I also ran bootanimation in android terminal, continous bootloop. But fun is had running those xbin/bin commands. Lol
XT912 RaZR SpYdEr CDMA
hit ThAnKs if I was helpful!!!
I have done this stop command too but my phone still boots up normally it just goes blank and my touch buttons are lit up and all I did was power off by holding power button for 6 seconds and power back on and booted up normally ? I'm alittle scared to play with commands now because I was just typing all random root user commands and I went through a bootloop like 5 times and I reflashed through RSD lite but I know now that I shouldn't play with those cmds now??

adb device not found

In Windows I cannot find it at all, running adb devices gives me an error.
In ubuntu it shows up as ??????????? but i have no permissions for some reason, so I cannot do the steps to Bump
Anyone have a way to fix this so I can Bump and finally get on to flashing the Modem, then custom roms finally!
You can also install it from Terminal Emulator, right on the phone, rather than adb. In TE, skip the "adb shell" line, input the 2nd - 4th lines, starting from "su".

You can also use Flashify to flash the bump'd TWRP recovery - that's what I did, worked beautifully. You can find Flashify in the Play Store.
For Linux, you must run sudo adb devices... Then the rsa key will pop up on the phones screen, then your good to go. You must run the sudo command first, or you'll need to run the adb kill-server command, then start again with elevated permissions. If your on 11c, you must be in ptp mode, for 10b ethernet mode.
For Windows, well who cares, use Linux...

Thank you all. Those adb kill commands were it. Everything worked out fine.. but now when i do the rest of the steps i boot into system recovery (not twrp) but like the phone system recovery, and it seems like thats not what i should be booting into.

I am not familiar with Linux but on Windows waiting for device comes up when the driver for that phone is installed. May be you can look into it for a solution.
Install the drivers and then give it a try.

You need to install adb fastboot these are the instructions you need to type in the terminal you just opened. Type one line at a time and press enter after each. Allow Ubuntu to do it's stuff.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot
after you reboot to the bootloader you use fastboot commands ,not adb

Sorry, I'm messing up what I'm trying to say. I have adb and fastboot installed, running on ubuntu 16.04. I plug my phone in, open Terminal, and run adb devies. My device pops up, it's there. So I run adb reboot bootloader, my phone goes on the white screen with the android fellow, and all is good. Now, I i try adb devices again, nothing. I put in lsusb (lists all usb devices connected to computer), and nothing. So, naturally, when i try fastboot oem unlock and my code, I'm stuck on <waiting for device>

Rooting Insignia tablet NSP10A7100 with android 6.0.1 marshmallow

Iv'e been looking around for a root for my device and I can't seem to find a root. Is there even a root for it yet?
Guys come on. Its been almost 4 months now and still no root. I just want to delete all the bloat ware off my device so that I can use it more.
Well I guess there isn't a root for my device. If anyone needs to root this device your out of luck.
Perfectly fine Android build per se; you want to change what?
You were joking, right? Going into the about/device and tapping on the kernel version lets you pick a ROM from microSD.
One supposes that you would use adb to make verify all your build assumptions are OK, grab Android developer kit and blobs on your development box of choice, and build your new improved ROM. Boot to glamour-shot portfolio FTW.
Separately, Internet reports are that Kingroot.net works, at least from the Windows side (perhaps after a little name tweaking from that side of adb resource names; see the perfectly serviceable P10A7100 note on Reddit. On the Android side I'm still looking at a spinner and '01%' root acquisition progress. But then I should give Kaspersky and Malwarebytes the day off while this is going on, right?
Hello,
New to the adb thing. I want to say first off, that this tablet has to be the worst POS I have even had. Its has 32 gb of memory but I can only use 6 of it for apps before it slows to a complete useless doorstop. Could anyone reccomend a good rom image?
I have the same issues. Can't believe they would sell such a POS! That's Best Buy a crap store that used to be one of the best.
Insignia NSP10A7100 rooting
Any luck finding more info on root for this device? I've only tried kingroot so far from the apk but no luck. Also trying to find more info on how to root manually (without a script) or how to write my own script? I've enabled developer options, enabled bootloader unlocking. I can run adb from my ubuntu box but adb reboot bootloader just reboots? I see the option when tapping kernal to update a .zip file but what file? I haven't seen any roms or recovery's for this device. Any help is appreciated!

I was playing around with adb and fastboot tonight and did learn a few things. I had to use "sudo fastboot flashing unlock" to get the bootloader unlocked. Whatever that switch is in developer options to unlock did not seem to unlock anything. I did a getvar all and the output showed it as locked. sudo fastboot with no options gave me the list of commands to use. After reboot there was a screen that warned about the bootloader being unlocked and that it was not safe. I thought it was going to be stuck there but it did finally reboot into a fresh system. I've got files with the output of getvar all and bugreport if any of that info would help anyone with the rooting. If anyone can point me to more research I'll continue to play with this.

I just got one and trying to access fastboot. I have model p10a7100. When I pick fastboot from recovery mode, I momentarily get resting android with "no command" and get recovery mode again. Because of low ram, I would like root access to install magisk for modules. Please explain your unlock method.

Teach us your adb method. I have tried everything and it won't enter fastboot mode. If I type adb reboot fastboot, it just bypasses fastboot and boots up the tablet to android.
Update: I entered the adb command adb reboot fastboot and I get a giant green screen with a walking android robot in the center. Then I lose contact with the tablet. Never saw that before.

That is what I did also although I used "sudo adb reboot fastboot". Still not sure if the sudo is required? The giant green screen means you are in fastboot mode now. Type "fastboot" at the terminal to see a list of commands. The one I used to unlock was "sudo fastboot flashing unlock_critical". Type "sudo fastboot flashing get_unlock_ability" to find out if you are able to unlock the bootloader. This is as far as I got. Apparently I could now flash an image if I could find one that would be compatible. If you get any further or find one let me know.

Are you on Windows? I'm on Ubuntu. Not sure what would cause that. Maybe someone out there with more knowledge will chime in. Good luck.
Here is a link to a temp cwm recovery and root instructions for a nuvision 8 inch tablet. According to the post it might work on other intel based tablets. Disclaimer: You may brick your device. I still can't establish an adb connection to test this. I have adb with the tablet booted. I lose it in fastboot or recovery. I was able to unbrick my nuvision after 2 years of waiting for a method.

I was wondering if it might be a driver problem. You could try Virtual Box and run Ubuntu that way. I may try that cwm down the road. Thanks for the info.
