I was running on Jasmine 8.0 which overall was running fine. I saw the new update, so I removed my work e-mail, decrypted the phone, and followed the normal install steps for 9.0. When I went back to add in my work e-mail again, I had to encrypt, so I went through that process and got back to the initial password/pin entry screen which tools me my pin was incorrect. I finally was able to rewipe the phone to get back to square 1. Since then I've tried 9.0, 9.1, and multiple combinations of pins and passwords and every time on the initial screen it tells me it's incorrect and starts counting down to wipe.
I'm not sure what to do since my work e-mail requires encryption. I don't want to go back to 8.0 (not sure that will even work).
Verizon, LG g3, latest version of twrp
you are 100 * right
this is a big deal.
i ended up wiping my phone (KDZ) because the phone cannot wipe itself because we changed the recovery.
then I did the whole thing again. but I encrypted FIRST then I flashed the rom.
2 things I noticed. 1 i did know my password
2 neither version of twrp would decrypt my phone to mount data
2.8.0.0 or 2.8.7.0. i had this problem before on my motorola. i didi find a version that did i work it was 2.8.1.0
so I flashed from an otg drive 9.0 and 9.1 in sequence and it
then said it did not know my password.
so I do not know if tis a 9.0 or a 9.1 problem.
i can live without a Android beause I can always kdxz back and use titanium back up.
ill just debloat my stock rom for now and use xposed
It's probably not specific to JasmineROM, but that's a guess. Anyone confirm this happening to them in the SkyDragon ROM thread?
If it happens on both them it's likely either a bug with 35B 5.1.1 on the VS985, or it's related to the way things currently have to be in order to have both working cell service and be able to get back into TWRP. Specifically, the 12B bootloader that's necessary in order to get into TWRP, and the 24B modem which is necessary because the 35B modem doesn't work with the 12B bootloader.

This "bootstack" of XDABBEB also happens to fix the VPN issue I was having. I was getting entries in logcat like "LGKM: Failed to init km_meta" and "keystore: Master key initialization failed" along with some QSEECOM-related errors. I could not add a VPN, basic or LG, because it would keep bouncing me back and often asking me to set lockscreen security even though it was already set. All better now.

So to preface my question, I originally forced an update to lollipop and left it alone for months. I just reflashed to stock and took all the OTAs up to 24B, and rooted the phone with the one click method. After this, I am a little confused as to where to go. I used to have an S3 and I flashed new ROMS on the phone weekly, but I don't even know how to get TWRP onto this phone to begin flashing ROMS. Whats the next step? If anybody could drop a link to a guide or maybe just point me in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated!
First, you used the one click root on 24B? Reason I ask is no one had reported that working with 24B, and I couldn't either, but the "new root method" did, otherwise just like you said, by OTAing from 12B through 24B.
You have the SuperSU app and it doesn't report that binaries can't be updated?
Maybe it sometimes works, sometimes doesn't.
To get TWRP on (I feel your pain because I had come from the S3 last November), it's much easier than it used to be. Used to have to manually downgrade your bootloader first. In the Play Store, search for
Code:
autorec VS985
That'll install TWRP on it and replace your bootloader.

Hi guys, i have been on these forums for a few years now but i've always dealt with Nexus 6 or samsung products. I laid my hands on a Verizon G3 but i use T-mobile. I have no problem getting it to work on T-mobile but what i do need help with is upgrading the device.
Yesterday i used the IOROOT process to root the device and i used flashify to install TWRP, but then i downloaded a couple custom roms and when i wiped and tried to flash in TWRP i got an error telling me that i don't have the 23c or 24b baseband. After this "issue" i got introduced to using kdz files to restore the device back to stock 10b.
After i did that i tried to manually update this G3 to 23c or 24b but i can't figure it out. I tried downloading the 24b.zip from AFH and flash it in TWRP but that didn't work, so i'm not sure if i was doing it properly. I tried using the device on wifi to do an OTA update but it said i have the latest software, which i know i don't. then i downloaded the LG Update Tool and ran that and got the same issue claiming that i have the latest software for the phone......
Can someone please tell me what i have to do to get this phone updated to 23c or 24b so i can get back to being a crack flashing addict?
thanks
I'm unfamiliar with the 24b.zip. You only have to flash the 23C modem from bwendiord's stickied thread in the General section in order to flash CM12.1 based ROMs. You can then flash the 24b modem afterwards.
If you want to update the entire stock version of ROM you're using, JasmineROM 8.0 would be the easiest way. Just flash it in TWRP v2.8.7.0, you don't have to flash anything else before or after.

in addition,
the reason it wont update is because the 10b kdz is not official. for 10b you have to use the tot if you want to take official updates over the air.
all the other builds kdz are official and fine to use.
Thanks guys. I realized that I could just use the 23c kdz file and I was all set

So, I'm just a little bit confused about something and was hoping someone could clear it up for me.
I'm coming off of 35B (total mistake, don't take that OTA); I've just downgraded to complete stock firmware (10B) using the .TOT method. I've also ran stumproot successfully and have root. Now, my next step is to flash TWRP, but here's my question:
I've seen a few different instructions stating "this file is not for Lollipop devices" or "not for KitKat devices"... I'm just a little unsure if different versions of TWRP are going to affect whether or not I'm able to flash Lollipop ROMs (stock or AOSP, doesn't matter). I was told to flash the newest JasmineROM to make it all the way up to 5.1.1, but I'm a little confused as to whether you simply shouldn't flash a KitKat TWRP on Lollipop devices, or if you shouldn't flash a Lollipop TWRP on KitKat devices (if there is a such thing as either).
So, in a nutshell, can I flash the absolute newest version of TWRP for VS985 on my 10B device, flash the newest JasmineROM right away, then proceed to flash any Lollipop ROM I want?
Can anyone elaborate?
Yes, you can. I used TWRP Manager under 10B to get the latest TWRP.

I've managed to take a stock Verizon 35B phone, and:
...downgrade it to 10B
...root it
...install TWRP
At this point, the SIM still works, I connect to the Verizon network, things seem good, but I'm trying to get to a Skydragon v6.0.2 install.
So, I then proceed to:
...grab the 35B modem from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56005257
(I've also tried the 35B bootstack from http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-lg-g3/development/xdabbeb-s-vs980-2-0-0-t3231279 )
...install Skydragon v6.0.2 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...9-skydragon-g3-vs985-kvt49l-vs98512b-t2967868
(I've tried both the stock and custom kernal)
I'm flashing the 35B modem then the ROM via TWRP. On reboot, while the system seems to work, the SIM card simply isn't ever recognized and I can't get on the Verizon network.
The Status lists "unknown" for my phone number, IMEI, and basically all settings, and under Software Info by Baseband version is also unknown. So I think that means there's something wrong with the modem, yes?
How can I get to a functional Skydragon ROM?

looks to me like your imei got wiped at some point. hopefully you made an efs backup, then you can restore it simply. if not, search down through this help forum for the thread describing the fix.

On SkyDragon 6.x and JasmineROM 9.x you have to flash the 35B bootstack after, not before. Both ROMs contain the 24B modem and other 24B partitions, which will overwrite anything you flash before.

Thank you very much! I'll get on that.
Purely for curiosity: if you know - and no need to respond if you don't - why would those ROMs include earlier-iteration modem information when they're designed for the 35B update?
They couldn't figure out how to get both the 35B modem and still being able to get into TWRP to coexist.
The solution was some of the 35B partitions neither include which @xdabbeb 's bootstacks do.
You're welcome!

I am on VZW with 23C and, out of the blue, I can no longer connect to the mobile network. It just started this morning. No new software installed. Put in a different sim card and it still did not work. I also did a factory reset to rule out any software issues and no dice.
Any other ideas or is it going to be a hardware issue?
Have you checked your account online to see if there's anything funky going on with it? The other sim card works fine in another device?
Have you tested in other areas?
Maybe try updating to 35B?

I have checked online and everything looks fine. I tried a separate (working) SIM card in the bad phone and it would not work. My wife also took it into VZW and had the sim card replaced and that did not work either.
Not sure what other testing I could do.

factory reset does not ensure there are no software issues, flashing stock firmware does though
+1 on flashing stock firmware. Any other firmware didn't fix it, weird. I had to do that when mobile data wouldn't connect.
