Hi all, i'm pleased to share my work with you.
Here you have the latest official lollipop firmware for D855 ( v. 20A - LRX21M) packed in a zip flashable file.
I made this because all of us want to keep the old bootloader that is - at the moment - the only one who accept the bumped TWRP provided us by team Codefire.
I made also a step further and found a way to root this ROM.
Here you go:
First of all i suggest you to install the TWRP modded by me to allow the backup of the modem.
Be sure you select also the modem partition before taking the backup. ( If you want to restore the backup then restore also the modem )
1- download the two files and put them into the sdcard;
2- reboot in recovery and do a factory reset;
3- install the ROM and the supersu ZIP;
4- reboot the device and enjoy your rooted Lollipop ROM.
If you come from an earlier lollipop firmware you can dirty flash, it might work.
I spend a lot of time developing this so if you think i deserve you can donate ( look at my sign )

Q&A
What this ROM include?
In the ROM zip you can find only the system, modem and kernel (bumped) image
What do i need to flash this?
You need only to have the TWRP recovery installed
If i flash this i will lose the bumped recovery?
Nope. The bootloader will not be changed.
If i want go back to KK roms ( stock or AOSP) what i have to do?
Just flash your ROM or restore a previous nandroid backup. But, after that, flash the zip with the KK modem you can find in the 1st post.
I really need to flash the root files?
Must i answer????
Cannot write to internal SD?
With adb or a terminal emulator do:
Code:
su
restorecon -v -R /data/media
Your statusbar and navbar are gone?
This is a issue reported from some user.
Try to format manually data in TWRP before install the rom.
If this doesn't work try flashing the kdz of the H firmware ---> root ----> twrp ----> install this rom ( sperimental).
Doesn't have the option to enable LTE?
Go with a root browser to system/app/Lteconfigs/, click and install the apk, then reboot and you will have the option for LTE.
Wwooiootttttt?????

Now this is the stuff. Maybe this G3 wasn't a bad choice after all. Beer (or some wine to keep the wife happy) incoming when I'm not at work
beast.
thank you! could you possibly link to the tot/kdz you used to downgrade from lollipop to kitkat?
What kernel do you use for rooting? 4.4 or custom?
Wait wut? So this is all done in the stock recovery? No root, no custom recovery needed? Just bang it all on the sd card and go?

Sorry for this question but after flashing this rom via bump twrp can we go back to KK Aosp by flashing it back? Or do we need to connect to a PC to restore back to stock fw?

The D855 is the international version.

Download the .zip file (see downloads)

Flash both files and turn the phone off
Open flashtool into flashmode
Flash 201 kernel
Reboot device
Done
Than'k
Could you upload it with something else (for example https://mega.co.nz or http://d-h.st/) because I don't have a premium acount on speedy share, and I dont want to bloat my computer with their download assistant .exe file...
What kind of fw is this? Generic Europe? Generic Global?
Thanks for sharing!
could anyone confirm this one ?
Thank'd.
Btw, how do you make the kernel only ftf? I know how to make a full ftf and extract the kernel.sin from it. Then how to make the ftf from it? Or.. any other way? Thanks in advance.
any other link ?
because i dont have premium account.

It is a pre-requisite that customised or cooked roms need root & recovery to install...
Im still using Stock rom .245(4.1) rooted with CWM. Do i still need to install .254(4.1) and .266(4.3) before flashing this rom and kernel? thanks in advance

I don't think so. I have flashed a few cooked (current) ROMs with .254 rooted + CWM. What matters is having CWM to flash the ROM which comes in zip files...In fact, I had to downgrade to .254 in order to root + CWM to flash
so to correct my understanding
ROM in OP is pre-rooted but Kernel in OP is stock kernel without root?
Exactly what are the changes in this FW
I mean geez Sony only put -_- battery improvements, software enhancements and are really very generic changes

No, At least they should've given the exact things they fixed liked the "App Installation Animation is fixed" instead of saying "Various System Improvements". It seems so general

Yes it is.
Did you change anything in the ROM apart from rooting it? There are some files missing compared to my german .201 version. I don't know if there are more files than the bloatware ones, it was just a short look into it.
anyone experience unknown baseband and wifi problem after flashing?

There's currently no way to root KK on this device without CWM. If you don't have it, only way is to revert to JB, root your device and install CWM. Then flash KK via CWM.
And you really shouldn't post your question in 3 different threads. No need to swamp this forum.

If we, the P715 users, flash KK via CWM, are we going to lose root permissions and the access to CWM recovery? Do you have any links for a rom.zip file where in we can flash it via CWM? if you dont know any, well thankyou at least.

The procedure should be the following:
- Install CWM
- Flash the ROM zip via CWM
- Flash SuperSu zip via CWM
- Reboot
Then you'll get the rooted ROM. No harm to CWM this way.
Regarding ROM for your device + SuperSu zip, you can find both in this post.

Well, I can say that the KK ROM is a bit less stable comparing to the JB one and a little more buggy (led not working is really annoying). If you don't want any specific KK feature, I'd suggest you wait for a more stable ROM.

Don't see a reason why not. However, once you have CWM installed, before upgrading to KK, make a nandroid backup from CWM, so you'll be able to revert if you encounter any issues with KK.

Hi guys, this is TWRP for D855 that the great @Dees_Troy builded and the @codefireTeam bumped, slightly modded by me to allow the backup of the modem partition.
The modem backup is important while going from lollipop to kitkat and from kitkat to lollipop since the modem of the two builds are not compatible.
To install just flash the attached zip in recovery or the img file with flashify

you can "root" it, look on it http://forum.xda-developers.com/g2-mini/development/root-root-g2-mini-lollipop-t3123652
if app will say that you cant root just try again and again and should be done,when i tested i tried 4 times and it's rooted.

U just need root and init.d support. U can use my swap file from my rom its in etc / init.d
Zram could not help you with memory leaks. I never play so much with virtual memory values so i cant say more but swap 400mb is a small solution for memory problrm in lollipop.

You can flash kdz file of lollipop by Lg Flashtool.
Or if you have installed Twrp you can flash zip package from this thread then use lollipop bootstack.
If you never modified your phone in my opinion u have to do first i mean just flash kdz file. Its easy you can find many tutorials about Lg flashtool.

It does not affect the flashing process.
It is there for LG's technicians to see if you have rooted the phone and void your warranty.

So, some of you might have noticed that I made some thread in General section, for Oreo TWRP Backup.
Some people do not like this idea, therefore I created a TWRP flash-able .zip for that.
I recommend a full wipe, or even a format data before flashing this.
Download the 3 zips, flash in order, boot, enjoy.
The files are stamped with a number, so you know what to flash in which order. Easy right ?
There is no root. I've heard SuperSU works flawlessly, but did not try as I am fine without it.

This requires TWRP; if you have TWRP then your knox is already tripped.

I have flash the 3 files and all perfectly work on my G950F, before i was on AQH3 XEF (France). Samsung health work, secured folder too. I juste have a "problème", it's that we can't install update by OTA. If your phone with this files crash, it's maybe because you don't have wipe with twrp before.
A bit of new stuff :
