ZVC update.zip for LS990 - Sprint LG G3

Here is update.zip pulled from cache on phone this AM, only 255MB, so just maintenance but at least is something to play with.
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087000799

status bar icons changed some, and a security update, thats it

I must have been on too much turkey . As I could tell your stock rooted version can be "dirty" installed over ZVB. I am going to give it a shot later today.

I'm running 5.0.1 LS990ZVC unrooted. What do I need to do to root my device? Like, which guide is right for me?
---------- Post added at 12:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:06 PM ----------
How do I root my Sprint G3 if I am using the stock rom running 5.0.1 with LS990ZVC update?

This thing had a nasty battery leecher that according to battery usage under settings was from wifi calling which would never activate even though it would switch on and locate me. I froze the service/app and thought i got rid of the problem... Still there so i ended up reflashing the entire rom and running ##rtn# to reset everything. Now it works so far...

How to flash 5.0 from sprint to our 900t ?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-galaxy-s5/development/stock-rom-nkd-android-l-odexed-t2956579
Seems they have a test build overe here for 5.0 what would we have to do to flash this to ours? Anyone tried making it work yet?
It would need to be a ported Rom with the libraries needed for out radio instead.
Afraid you will need to wait until someone makes a custom Rom
I'm about to ditch this S5 t-mobile. It looks like we're not getting the update to lollipop any time soon. It's bull they're getting it everywhere but the SM-G900T version. I may be a little harsh and a cry baby but this is just getting nuts. 4.4.2 just runs like crap force closes apps closing. Even on custom rom that are good roms but there's still issues. Enough is enough time to go to the nexus line. J.S

From what I understand, Samsung's currently testing 5.0 on the T-Mobile, AT&T, and Sprint S5's. They started it about two or three weeks ago.
Supposedly, the Note 4 / Note Edge testing will start next week.
Yeah.
Samsung looks like they are being fairly aggressive to get this update out.
I think this is another way they are trying to compete with Apple devices.
They want their updates to go through as quickly as possible.
I have no desire to update to LP personally, I enjoy the ability to customize everything about my ROM. If I didn't have a rooted phone, or want one, then sure I'd update to LP. No Xposed, and all the annoyances of having TW? No thanks.

Yes and it did not work. It flashed just fine. It just stayed at the galaxy s5 screen and then eventually rebooted itself back into recovery mode. I even tried flashing a 4.4.2 kernel to see if it would boot .

Thanks for trying, the Sprint leak requires the 5.0 bootloader in order to boot. I suspect the bootloader is also required with this build Anyway, thanks for testing.
Ive yet to update to the NK2 but that would still be 4.4.2 and not 5. and since 5 is not out it would be impossible to update to the 5.0 BL.

ZV4 to ZV6

Hello,
So i wanted to somehow manually update my phone from ZV4 (Did the .tot downgrade) and upgrade to ZV6 so i can get Wifi Calling, i have already removed/frozen alot! of stock Sprint Apps (Mainly removed lol) and i wanted to update to ZV6. I want to still keep my root and update, i saw a thread someone had posted and it said something about if you removed sprint apps it will error or fail to verify or something. Any suggestions on how to upgrade to ZV6 and keep root? Thanks
My recommendation would be to flash BarRin, which is a pre-rooted, debloated stock ZV6 ROM with a few tweaks:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-lg-g3/development/rom-barrin-odexed-deodexed-t2950747
I will do that!
So correct me if im wrong but i would flash v3 then the update then gapps?
Also is there like a live chat room for the LG G3 for instant support?

Yep. I'm running BarRin v3 and WiFi calling works fine. I did a clean install of v2 and then a dirty flash of v3.
If WiFi calling doesn't work on any stock ROM, entering ##RTN# in the dialer should get it back. It will do a factory reset of your phone, though, so make sure you back up anything important.

Is the FOF6 bootloader still unlocked and can the rom be rooted with twrp and flashing SuperSU 2.49? Has anyone noticed improved performance and less ram being used?
Any New Changes?
Can someone please tell me Any New Features such as Themes are included in this 5.1.1 update?
Come on people post those long over due screenshots!
I just did the update and it killed my sim card reader. Booted up the phone after fresh wipe and install, my phone said that I needed to install a sim card. Talked to T-Mobile technical support and was told to go to the store to get a new sim card since they thought the update fried the sim card. Still no luck, phone won't read new sim card. Other than that, the phone sims a lot more fluid and some animations seem a little different.

anyone know what version xposed works on lollipop?

I've tries latest v65-sdk22 and it doesn't want to install in twrp. Sdk21 version just bootloops or freezes at bootup. Any ideas?
It has its in download. Beta.

not very clear information. please explain?
I'm pretty sure there is no version that is compatible with our HAM2 on Lollipop, yet.
Perhaps we have to modify the build.prop again?
Which reminds me, I still have yet to root my phone.
I have tried the build prop theme changes and about everything I can think of ...both versions for 5.1 hang at boot.
It took forever for xposed to come out for Lollipop because that's when Android made the official jump from Dalvik to ART. Then it appears that certain manufacturers modify the ART runtime on top of that.
It looks like Huawei is one of those companies. Samsung also did it, but they have such a huge fan base that they had a dev that came up with a work around. It's possible that someone will do the same for Huawei eventually, probably for another phone or tablet that could possibly work for us, but I wouldn't hold your breath.

I looked into it and it will prevent booting. Likely to do with emui. Tom is waiting on kernel source so he can make a stock rom. Xposed will then work. Patience is key.

Anyways, I tried to do it the lazy way and it doesn't work and it breaks my internal SD card. I tried to do it the official way and install just fails.
You may have better luck.
@medwatt people keep mentioning a KK build....B148 is the only build I ever see prior to b309, but b148 is JB, so what build is KK? I have always been on 4.3 prior to 5.1.
@ArkAngel06
My quote buttons gone as well, I just got caught up on your other thread discussing this all.
Won't the new twrp 2.8.7.3 L take care of this with the new check script?
keep us updated I'm working 16 hrs x 3 days so no real play time.
Tomorrow I might attempt a 4.3 downgrade. Getting real tired of the bugs, and I dearly miss Viper and Xposed. I have root but didn't flash TWRP so hopefully the official way will work.
Today I even did a factory reset but it seems to have made things worse somehow.

I am using the new unified TWRP, here is what I have tried, with the outcomes.
Use unified TWRP to restore a JB backup I made before LP>>>Won't boot, just boots TWRP over and over.
Use unified TWRP to install Xordos' b148 flashable>>>Boots, but internal SD card is unwritable.
Use old JB version of TWRP to install Xordos' b148 flashable>>>Same as unified TWRP, broken internal SD
I also had a lot trouble doing the official downgrade. Most of the problem was me not reading the instructions, and thinking I just had to throw the b148 dload/update.app on my sdcard, but there is alittle more to it than that. Also, i think you need to have the newest stock recovery installed. I tried it with TWRP installed, obviously it loaded TWRP instead of the stock recovery and failed. I then flashed a stock recovery that I had on my PC, thought it was the new one but I could be wrong, but that also failed. So I just did a full official LP upgrade again with the LP update.app, that gives you all the right stuff and I was then able to do the official downgrade.
I just did that like 5 minutes ago and it appears to be working! So, it looks like its going to be a loooong process going from LP to JB, or vice versa. Wish you could just use TWRP, but I don't think you can.

You know, Viper works on Lollipop? You have to install busy box, install the viper driver, disable low power audio, and start the app after every reboot, but it works!
Sigh. OK I will get the step daughters CC and make a flashable rom.zip from it. Didn't really want to go back to messing with roms much but it looks like there is a need. Can't do it tonight I have a sick 3 year old. I will tomorrow. Maybe afterwards I can make a flashable L zip to make going back and forth easier. Haven't done the L flash yet... But looks like cake walk. Sadly it will overwrite anything you have on the phone.

Ark, from what I have looked at xposed will not work with emui lollipop.
You know, Viper works on Lollipop? You have to install busy box, install the viper driver, disable low power audio, and start the app after every reboot, but it works!

Do you think the Viper driver will fix my stupid audio cutting out bug? If it will, then maybe I'll stay with 5.1.
Edit: Actually, thanks for reminding me. I hate the whole "start apps on boot manually even though it says start on boot" thing.

Verizon G3 Stock 6.0 Marshmallow Update (VS98546A)

I received the 6.0 update tonight. ~788MB download and 20 minute install.
Things I noticed differently:
-Response and fluidity seem better, might be due to it clearing the app cache
-Notification bar is smaller, this is a plus for me
-Messages in the message app are smaller, this is a big plus for me
-Everything LG wise has a more flat material design to it. Looks better than before but still iffy
Will update in the future about the battery usage.

1 of your pics says modified, did you already root it?
Any link kdz ??
Wow... can't believe the VS985 already has official MM coming this quickly. That's so unlike Verizon to get updates out this quickly.
I'm also shocked that VZW released it so early. I'll be waiting for a KDZ so I can upgrade the G3.

Yeah, if you DID root it, how? Curious because I need to keep root for TiBu.
Oh and @snoop5 also posted a link to an article from Android Authority stating the VS985 6.0 is being pushed out.

Thanks!
Still the same terrible signal and WiFi icons, huh?

I did not. I was rooted versions ago, that was taken away with the 5.1.1 update, but it kept the 'modified' status.
I can look into root for it. The link Bradg24 posted helps. I'll see if I can get recovery on the phone in an easy way.

Rooting a stock ROM, and having a version of SuperSU that will work on it are two different things. That's not a root method unless you:
1. Already have root/TWRP.
2. Have the new ROM as a flashable zip.
If so, then after flashing the ROM then you can flash SuperSU.zip.
This isn't what people are looking for when they're looking for a "root method".

@2kool4u526 can you test the auto brightness on this release? On 35B in a dim room the built-in auto brightness made the screen too dark to be useable, although using Lux Lite from the Play Store rectified that.
Thanks for the info.

You'll have to get root before you can attempt to install TWRP. Keep in mind if it screws up your boot with a secure boot error, you might not be able to fix it until they release a KDZ for 46A, if 46A's Download Mode doesn't allow flashing older KDZs, just as 35B's didn't.

Too bad it's not like Samsung with being able to flash a custom recovery via USB through Odin on a PC, at least that's how it used to be with Samsung before Knox - now I don't know.
I've tried looking into if it's possible to build our own KDZ but I never got anywhere. Since there are tools to extract them there must be a way of building them, although they might contain some kind of manufacturer signature to confirm they're official when flashing them.
Wi-Fi Calling?
Can anyone confirm/deny if this version has any WiFi calling capabilities? I know Verizon rolled out this capability for the S6 and said they were going to update other Android handsets in 2016.
Long shot, but I figured I would put it out there...
do we even have any devs working on stock verizon ports anymore? i thought holyangel and hasbadr stopped working on this device

Define "anymore". @hsbadr , @HolyAngel and @xdabbeb all released 35B-based ROMs, and the only one of those three who's phone situation changed since then is @HolyAngel 's.
Before the KDZ is available (or rooting a stock build of the OTA at a minimum) it's too early to find out if anyone will release a ROM based on it. Heck, if no one else did by some miracle, I would, based on what I learned from @hsbadr and @xdabbeb.
Only those three devs might know if they would update their ROMs, and we shouldn't ask them. Either they will or they won't depending on if they feel like it.
(I know you weren't asking them so please don't get upset)
i know hsbadr didn't have the phone anymore when he did 35b.
Really hoping we can get a Jasmine update for MM, I mean maybe someone can make a poll showing how much demand for one there would be?
Yeah idk if I'll be supporting it or not at this time, at the least need kdz or system dump.
