Okay so I have had the Samsung intercept HTC one v and now the lg optimus l9. I rooted my intercept but never did anything with the root other than use WiFi tethering. Didn't root my HTC cuz the process required a computer and was going to be complicated. Now I've rooted my lg through lgpwn using the back up app I also made a back up of my phone before I rooted. Now I'm rooted and have played with a few simple things(fonts greenify uninstalling system apps) but haven't done any custom ROMs. I also made a newbie mistake and changed my boot animation withought backing up. Then today T-Mobile informed me of an update to latest lg software. I tried the update and got the dead android screen so I took battery out and restarted it now its working fine. So now my question is since it was rooted by restoring from a backup will it unroot if I install my present root system back up? I deleted a few system apps some are backed up with titanium back up but most are not. They all were market apps that came preinstalled. Will they be restored if this restore method works? And if that method won't work what would be the easiest way to restore the boot animation and update to latest software. Most of the talk about ROMs is way over my head so I need an opinion on the best option. Thanks
Can nobody help me?

Hello seth,
If your L9 is rooted, then no any native LG backup app can remove root. If you have backed up your data with titanium backup then it only can restore system app, it also can't remove root. If you want to get back to stock, then you will have to download kdz of stock rom and flash it using lg flash tool. For help and tutorials search general thread section of L9 over xda.
Good luck buddy

Hi Everyone,
I've seen this question posted randomly in threads for other topics but didn't see a thread for the question itself so thought Id put it out there because
1. I'm curious to the answer myself.
2. Having this thread might back the search for others with the same question slightly less time consuming and a whole lot easier.
That being said, does anyone out there know of any custom roms for, or ones that will work on, the LG VS810PP (Transpyre)?? Also, since (as far as I can tell) the Transpyre and the LG Tribute are essentially the same phone, could one use a custom rom for the Tribute on the Transpyre? Surely, I wont be stuck with staying on stock! I MUST MOD!!! :cyclops: :fingers-crossed:
Any and all help IS GREATLY and WHOLEHEARTEDLY appreciated! Thanks soooo much in advance.
Calling all Modders! Calling all Modders!
I have this device as well and would love to get off the stock Rom an instal CM or other, hate the bloatware an Rom over all seems sluggish. I am sure there is someone with the knowledge out there that has this device an can help!!!!! Calling all Transpyre Modders! Its time to Rom Out!
Root, but no rom
Im a Transpyre user and was able to succesfully root but have yet to find any custom roms. in the meantime i have removed lots of bloatware and things are running a lil better and my battery is lasting a bit longer.
I was able to root, de-bloat and install TWRP. I also made a backup and was able to restore. I know that's not much info but every little bit helps.

A backup of the stock recovery? If so I'd love one of those right now, can't install 5.1.1 OTA without it (and I don't think I can install 5.1.1 with TWRP without someone making a custom flashable ROM?).
Does anyone have a list of the bloatware I can safely disable or uninstall? A short description of it would also be nice if possible to see if it's something I need or not. I am rooted and also have the transpyre. Not a bad phone for the price.
Same here I've been scouring the net looking for a custom Rom for the transpyre but cannot seem to find anything for it, makes me wonder why this phone is not so cared for as If it were a contract phone
I know what you mean, I understand wasn't a very popular phone but I know you and I ain't the only ones that have it. Just have to be patient I guess and wait for someone that has worked on it to help is.

I used the kinguser app to get root on it. I doubted it would work but It did The trick. make sure you update the King user app to prevent most apps from saying you don't have root, also, A strange thing happened though I used the jrummy root checker and now it says my phone is an Lg F60. Not sure if that's a bad thing. Also keep in mind you will lose your custom recovery I've been looking for ways to flash the twrp/cwm recoveries but it seems to be locked to the stock recovery. I've been putting it off but I'm going to test pushing the files through adb and see if that does anything. I'll let you know whether It bricks or not

Do you have a backup of your rom? and could you post a link to it?
I was able to root using Kingroot 4.5 and replace it with SuperSU using the "Super-Sume Pro 9.2.1 apk" All newer versions of the Super-Sume Pro .apk hung up during the first phase of its operation and all of the free versions of Super-Sume I had tried (the most recent) caused my phone to hang at the Verizon screen during reboot.
I found a YouTube video:
"How to Install CyanogenMOD 12 on the LG F60 and LG Tribute"
Which claimed the procedure was the same for the Transpyre (vs810pp) and included links to another video:
"How To Install TWRP Recovery on the LG F60, LG Tribute and LG Transpyre"
As well as a download link for "twrp-2.8.6.0-e2nav.img" which is supposed to be correct for the Transpyre (vs810pp) phone.
However after I installed "twrp-2.8.6.0-e2nav.img" I received an error during reboot: "Secure booting Error! Error Code : 1003" Afterword my phone would not do a factory reset, and only displayed that error message on every attempt..
I had since installed:
csmgdl.lgmobile.com/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=FW07S65232BYAJX41F92ORK/VS810PU4_08_ARB01.kdz
(The factory 5.1.1 ROM which I found here in another thread) restoring the factory recovery ROM using the guide: "How to flash firmware to LG smart phone with LG Flash Tool 2014" I was able to repair the boot error.
How are you guys getting TWRP to work well? Would one of you be kind enough to point me in the direction of the the TWRP file that is successfully being used?
Would any of you guys currently running TWRP be able to provide your bootloader and dependency files?
If so would you kindly make them available over at :
xda-developers - Android Development and Hacking - Miscellaneous Android Development - [RECOVERY][e2nam] TWRP 2.8.5.0 touch recovery LG MS395
It appears that there may be another, far more advanced enthusiast (I believe the author of the "twrp-2.8.6.0-e2nav.img" I mentioned earlier) posting over there who could potentially be able to put together something useful for those of us running the Lollipop 5.1.1 factory ROM.
does anyone have a stock rom? Im seriously screwed here without one
Hi guys, I am a newbie to smartphones in general and seem to have myself stuck in a loop. I have a lg transpyre that I was trying hard not to upgrade to lollipop because it would unroot it (I got it rooted before as kitkat). I guess at some points in time I forgot to uncheck the auto installing checkbox so now I have lollipop :crying:.
I have another identical transpyre that still runs rooted kitkat. I am researching on maybe somehow copying the operating system from this phone to the lollipop phone (I guess it calls flash?). So far it seems to me that such attempt would require both phones to be rooted.
Can anyone guides me to the right direction? I really appreciate any help I can receive!
I don't believe that VZW and LG put out the official kdz firmware files like they should to be able to update/downgrade that phone. Looks like you would need to do it via installing a custom recovery (TWRP) and using it to make a nandroid backup and transferring that to the other phone to restore.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfjMczu78Dc
That's how to install recovery. Install on both phones, backup to SD card, then use that SD card in the other phone to restore the system. Unfortunately, since there isn't a kdz file readily available, if you brick something, you'll probably be in trouble without an easy solution to resolve.

thanks and repped for your reply. I found a kdz file(VS810PU4_08) but my phone still has lollipop after (so I am not sure if the kdz file itself is lollipop or I wasn't successful at pushing it to my device). I thought a kdz is supposed to be the stock version that the phone comes with?
kdz is just the stock firmware, it does not mean the specific update the phone came with. I think the LP version is the only one around. At least you have that, so if you do decide to attempt the nandroid backup and restore, you have a way to fix it if it soft bricks.

My LG G3 seems to have died tonight.

I really do like this phone so I ordered a cheap refurb replacement off ebay.
What's the process to go to from whatever it shipped with to xdabbeb's 47A version found here w/TWRP?

Bump. Can't imagine it's that hard to get from new phone to 47A rooted with TWRP, but want to do it right the first time.

Hope that helps! I myself haven't done this as I'm fully satisfied being on stock 47A unrooted at this point. Once I can verify that the latest CM is pretty stable (which it appears to be but there are still a few nagging issues), I'll probably eventually go to that, but I want to wait and see if LG and VZW are done with updating this phone.

Note that unless you truly can't, I always recommend the 10B TOT method with the .DLL from the 35B KDZ over the instructions in the thread that was linked. It works for me fine both times I've tested it but several people ended up having to TOT their phone after those instructions anyway.
Once you're on 10B, root with the Stump app then use TWRP Manager in the Play Store to flash TWRP.

The .tot does seem easier than the instructions in the other thread. At least, that's if no complications with getting Windows set up to do the .tot right.
So if the phone comes and it's 35B or higher, TOT to 10B w/35B DLL (where's the correct .35B DLL, I wasn't sure exactly which file to use?), stump root, install TWRP Manager from play store and flash TWRP, reboot to TWRP, flash 35B bootstack, flash xdabbeb's 47A. Done? I'll then still have TWRP, be rooted and be on 47A, right?
If the phone comes lower than 35B, can I just .kdz to 10B and then do the same?

My Android File host link at the bottom of the first post of the other thread by @annoyingduck has both the 10B_3 TOT (don't accidentally get the 10B_01 KDZ) and the 35B .DLL you need.
stump root, install TWRP Manager from play store and flash TWRP, reboot to TWRP, flash 35B bootstack, flash xdabbeb's 47A. Done? I'll then still have TWRP, be rooted and be on 47A, right?

Can that be rooted though? Do I still go back to 10b, stump root, installed TWRP and then kdz to 47a?
If I'm going to do that, I'm probably just better off using xdabbeb's 47a. I've been happy with his 46a.
Or can I just go from whatever version my phone comes with, kdz to 47a and then root there using ?? (kingroot)? Then I'll be on 47a stock/rooted, but no TWRP? That may suffice for my needs. I like that xdabbeb's 46a had systemless root and I was able to get android pay working.

When you flash a KDZ, even with LG Flash Tool 2014's "Normal" option versus "CSE", it overwrites everything currently installed: System (your ROM), Modem, Bootloader, Kernel, Recovery and other partitions. "Normal" mode enables keeping user apps and user and system data, although doing that works best when only "upgrading" from perhaps the previous official release.
In other words, if you're going to root and install TWRP, flashing a KDZ would just undo all that so yes, absolutely, it would be easier/better to just flash @xdabbeb 's stock 47A ROM.
You can temporarily root 47A with Kingroot. You have to re-root whenever you reboot, and Kingroot is very invasive. You don't want to use Kingroot. The only times I recommend it is as a temporary solution, as for my alternate way of installing TWRP which you're already aware of.
Flashing newer KDZs is more for those people who want to stay 100% stock unrooted, especially for those who don't actually use Verizon so they don't receive OTAs.

Yes xdabbab's 47A is the way to go for me.
Just got the new phone and its on 35B. I'm trying to TOT to 10B with the 35B DLL. I did the COM41 in device manager. I've got the phone in download mode. I'm running the LG Flash tool as admin in Windows 10. I load the 2 files and click the start arrow. It goes through some things where it says BIN CRC check or something like than and then it just sits and says READY!! in yellow, but nothing ever happens.
Am I doing something wrong?
EDIT: Unlplugged USB and plugged it back in and it's going now. Stand by, could maybe use some more help getting through this
Optimizing apps on 47A (hopefully). I'm sure finding my Titanium folder on the external drive will be a pain as always, but hopefully smooth sailing from there.
The process worked great. East to TOT, install stump root, then TWRP and then flashed 35b bootstack and 47a xdabbeb with some wiping data/caches in between.
Titanium took a good few hours to restore my 300+ apps. I don't know why that took so long. There's probably a better way, but even though Titanium always takes long, it's easy to automatic backups during the week and it usually gets my apps back to a nice spot.
Back up and running on my replacement phone today. The ebay listing said it was B+ condition. Screen is in great shape, some scraping on the sides, but I don't care about that. I used my back cover that I had put an NFC sticker on when I got the original phone. All working great so far.
Thanks for the help here.
Thanks!

Were you charging at the same time as restoring backups? Maybe it was throttling down due to heat.
Yeah, for me since Lollipop, even with Mount Space Separation disabled (and then phone rebooted), besides TB taking a long time it also would get hung up on restoring an app occasionally. I'd have to reboot and then resume restoring, and any that it would get hung up on I'd skip until after. Then I was able to restore those one by one and then TB handled them fine.
I've been using the built in LG Backup since 12B and it's fast. It has a couple quirks such as I find it resets my keyboard to stock when backing up, may have killed other things that I normally had running in the background, but I don't recall for sure.
When restoring I have a pet peeve that it forces the screen to stay on during the process, even once it finishes and is waiting for you to select the button to reboot.
Taking OTAs manages to let you know it's successful after it automatically reboots, why can't they have LG Backup do the same?
Still, overall, I prefer it for speed and reliability/stability, but TB is still a must have tool.
You're welcome!

I've never gotten LG Backup to work right for me. Never seems to restore nearly everything or get errors when backing up. Not worth looking into it more as I don't start fresh much.
I was using the phone much of the time TiBU was working, so that didn't help, but still slow going even if I plugged it in and let it sit. It missed about 30 apps the first time around that I did in a 2nd pass. Didn't get hung too much in the main batch, at least. And if It does hang, no need to reboot. Just FC TiBU and then start it back up and leave the hung app off to do as a one by at the end.
I did just discover a strange problem with the new phone. I can't restart it. If I try to restart it goes blank after a bit and a battery pull is needed to get it back on. I can power off, let it go off and power on, that works fine. Only fails when I do it as a restart.
Any ideas?

It's a common problem on this phone. There's no particular known reason why it happens, nor any solution - there's only been a ton of speculation without any strong evidence other than a thread I had made about this subject, during which I made a detailed test of rebooting the phone about 140 times under different circumstances (10 times in a row in each specific circumstance). I'm fairly certain I would have to at minimum do about 1500 more reboots in various circumstances to only possibly get closer to narrowing down the problem.
Some people will tell you they think it's caused by a particular (35B) bootstack. I don't believe it because I had 70 reboots in a row while on the 35B bootstack without having the problem during part of my testing.
I also have had the problem before 35B even came out. I haven't had the problem happen at all in the past couple of months - since the last time I had TOT'd back to 10B (and I've done various KDZ flashes since then when testing things for myself and for others).
Rebooting
I noticed the reboot problem started after I installed a 64GB memory card. Without the additional memory card...rebooting works normally. With it inserted, a battery pull is needed 2x out of 5 to bring the phone back from limbo. I'm on Jasmine 9.1

Definitely not my issue. My phone was rebooting in download mode without even a SIM or memory card installed.
I haven't seen anything posted yet, but noticed that an update for the US997 was added yesterday (Nov 8) on lg-firmwares. I tried to see if I could get the update through LG Bridge, but it says I'm on the current version (15a). The update is still 7.X, and listed at 2.71G.
Has anyone successfully installed the update? If so, what is included in the update? TIA!
I just went to the LG Firmwares page https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-us997-firmwares/#firmwaresList and am downloading the 16a kdz. I'll flash it once it's downloaded. I'll reinstall twrp and root then I'll check out any differences.
Edit: The install went a little rough. I thought I wasn't going to be able to get twrp installed but I got it. Rerooted and all is well. It seems snappier. The camera seems faster too. But it's largely the same.

The person isn't rooted so neither Titanium or TWRP will be of any use.
You can use ADB and use the backup command.
That will get you about as close as you can get. unfortunately, if a device isn't rooted, backup kind of sucks.
Finally got around to updating. I used LGUP and Uppercut to flash the kdz. I chose the upgrade option and it did not wipe my data. Can't really tell any difference so I'm not sure what the update was for.
Has anyone received this as an ota?

I haven't received an OTA since right after setting up my phone. I got 14a as OTA, but did 15a through LG Bridge and 16a through LGUP.
