Bought "New" from eBay. Arrived rooted. - LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just bought this phone through eBay through a very highly recommended seller. It was marked as brand new and it would come with the packaging and headphones. It came some things in little Ziplocs like the battery and the actual phone and the backing piece was in an actual Factory bag just the unsealed straight bags that you open and dump out so I'm thinking this isn't a new phone that is pre owned and don't know what to do. I went to do the upgrade from lollipop to marshmallow and it said phone is suspected of being rooted and then closed. Every time I turn the phone on it says "unfortunately teleyphoney has stopped". And not telephone but then it disappears and it runs fine. Just wondering others thoughts on the situation. It was stuck on AT&T to go has stopped and it wouldn't let me dismiss it or press okay so I had to hit okay and quickly swipe down to get into settings and it went away. I paid $250 us for the phone and it is spotless not a nick or even micro scratches on it anywhere so I thought it was a great deal. What would you do? Id just like some other peoples insight into this. I usually use nova launcher prime on every phone. I haven't rooted of flashed a Rom in years. Are there good roms? Like I said it's mint condition but has some occasional hiccups here and there.

Hi
I take it that your phone is the AT&T H900 V10, if so the phone is bootloader locked and cannot be rooted by the usual means. I believe there is a Rom in existence that provides root and TWRP recovery. You need to search for an OP named "tungkick or kik " as he has made this. Sorry to be so negative but I have the same phone running stock.

Yes that's the model. I just dont know why someone would take a brand new lg v10 root it then sell it. Could it have possibly been stolen and the eBay seller rooted it so he could unlock it? I don't know a ton about this stuff but have rooted and flashed roms years back. I would like it stock. The fingerprint scanner doesn't work and that's all I found so far.

Hi
To get stock search for the latest AT&T stock rom, which is H90020w. When and if you have it you will need the programs LGUP and or LG Bridge plus the LG drivers for the V10 (Google them). When you have all, you then need to put the V10 into download mode by switching the phone off completely.( I found that if after it is off you remove the battery and replace it after a couple of minutes it helps ensure it is completely off.) Then plug your USB cable to your computer and while holding the volume up button on the phone insert the other end of the cable into the phone and you will be in download mode. You then run LGUP and at the bottom of the program you will see a blank entry with BIN at the left side and 3 dots on the right,
Click here and then go to where you have saved the Rom and click on it and it should show in the enrty pane beside BIN. Hit start and the Rom will install.
Hope this longwinded explanation is helpful.

Thank you very much! Is this a stock Rom or will it return it to factory stock? I don't know very much about this. I have Lg bridge installed. So I should google lgup and download that on pc also? And if I see the v10 in my Devices does that mean I have the drivers?

Nothing will work with bridge except back-up probably because it realizes it's rooted. So this process will not unroot my phone just give me a stock Rom? as my phone was only rooted when it arrived and I use nova launcher prime instead of factory launchers on all the phones I get. I have 5 days to return it but see a lot of people want their v10s rooted but can't unless you did it before updates. I know rooting was part of installing the roms yrs ago but that's all I remembered. I am just a little ticked as it was listed as brand new but when I get it it's rooted. Other than that and fingerprint not working it is brand new. Still has plastic on metal strips n all. The seller has a great eBay record and there were a bunch of these available but listed as New. I even called and asked if brand new and he said yes. So idk if I should take it on the chin and keep it or ship it back and go another few weeks w out phone in hopes of getting an unopened one.

@nednerbish
That is a strange one. I bought my H900 and an H901 both off Ebay and both came Sim unlocked but that was all. They are both brand new. I bought the H901 because it can be bootloader unlocked and i like to use other Roms. The H900 i bought because it wa stock only and it updated to the Rom i quoted previously OTA. Have you tried the "repair recovery option of LG Bridge. And what version of Rom is on the phone is it MM or Lollipop? Because that can make a difference.

Here's a screenshot.

And when I turn phone on or restart it I get this every time. I don't get it.

Lollipop. If you go to XDA Developers. LG V10 General tab there is a very good guide explaining how to go back to stock. Also you could download the LG support tool it may assist.

I'll check it out. Thank you again.

Hi do you know which of these I need for a rooted h90010f? I have Lg bridge installed and I installed lgup ver 1_14_3.msi I think the malware "teleyphone" is embedded in the Rom they flashed. I can't tell in my files where the Rom they used is.

Hi
The first H90020j is the stock Lollipop (Android 5) Rom.
The second H90021w is the latest stock Marshmallow (Android 6) Rom
The last one is what is says it is a rooted Rom but I do not know what Version of Android it is. It could be the same as the Rom you have installed at the moment and using it will keep you where you are now. The second is pure stock and if installed via LGUP will get rid of your problem, hopefully, unless there is something else involved.

Whenever I get a new phone, I ALWAYS brick it

Mind you I temporary bricked them, but I've yet to this day tried rooting a phone, and never had things go smoothly.
Any guide I try to follow just so happens to be the wrong one, or isn't thorough enough in its directions... Theres always some missing software, or missing details on what to do when you hit a road block, so here is my story so someone can point me in the right direction...
I bought this LG Optimus G LS970 on eBay, and apparently it was already rooted, and it had some sprint apps on it so I guess its the sprint version of the phone. Anyways I notice there are some photos on the phone, so start plugging in the the phone to my pc only to find that i cant access files.... I google some questions, start holding buttons trying to get into whatever boot or recovery mode or some mode i dont understand.
Turns out I got something called Team Win Recovery Project v2.6.0.0 flashed on my phone.... I don't quite get what all these options are, but all I see are wipe options and I'm thinking "Hey this will get me back to factory settings and maybe i can flash a barebones android jellybean whatever (I dont know what os is called on a phone) So I start checking boxes and wiping things...
I soon find out that my device is telling me I don't have an OS. Of ****ing course it doesn't. I realized I just deleted it, because it told me I deleted it.
Well atleast I still have this recovery dohicky so not all is lost.
I start reading unbick guides, and of course I dont know what they mean, I just download every link they tell me to and run them. I install "drivers" and even then, when I plug the phone into my PC, I still get "Did not install" popups even if "LGUnitedMobileDriver_S4981MAN38AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.8.1" said it installed correctly....
I open up this Original LG Firmware thing, and asks for my phone's model and serial number... Just what the hell is my phone's model? eBay listing said E973, the back of the phone says LS970, that useless mobile tool that wont let me download additional drivers says its called LG-LS970, and google results call it LGLS970....
And of course I don't know my phones serial or whatever a "imeieieie" is because I don't have an os to tell me that (guides don't tell me how to get this on a bricked phone and google result is useless)...
So I cand download this thing called a kdz because #1 it wont let me, and #2, and google just doesnt have a download link for it.
All I wanted was a rooted lg optimus g with a nexus-like experience on it without bloatware, and I somehow manage to brick my device within minutes of owning it, what do you think I should do.
I did hold down Vol - to get into some black screen that says "SERIAL" with a number, but that number doesnt seem to work with that lg firmware downloader thing. What do?
Super easy fix. Get an external sd card. Put a ROM on it. I recommend one of these http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2067871 the latest version is Stock Jellybean of our phones. OR is you want CM10 use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2411406 . Be sure to download ROM+GAPPS for CM10. I recommend those since you probably don't know if your phone has the updated partitions.
Anyway put whichever you want on the External SD card. Reboot back into recovery TWRP (Team Win Recovery). Wipe Data/Cache/Dalvik. Go back then Install the files you put on the External SD card.
Ls970 is sprint version. Only att version has external SD.

Oh wow I read that some many times and it just didn't click. Well it's much hard now. To OP, you should ask in your designated forum. This one is for the AT&T model. The easiest way is to find out how they restore their phones to stock. Probable LGNPST or something similar. Or install ADB, then push a ROM file to the internal, then flash in recovery. You're gonna have to do some research. But it's still easily do-able. As for the issues with the drivers, someone over there should have a link to alternative ones. But you can google "universal ADB drivers" and those should work.
I used LGNPST with a positive result. The hardest ****ing part was finding whatever-necessary file I was supposed to flash to the device. It took me hours to find it (not much help from XDA) and I was never clear if the file I washed, was indeed the stock rom the device came with.
The device now has startup and shutdown animation and jingles I wasn't familiar with (Different from what I got the phone with)
What I know is, the ebay Listing was for a E973 from West Virginia with abunch of Sprint apps on it.
But E973 is said to be a Canadian model? But Canada doesnt have sprint? And the phone says LS970?
I don't know whats this phones origins are, I just know I flashed a file called LS970ZV7_02.SV7_02.P25006.tot which told me to rename to bin, it flashed an outdated, possibly mismatched version of android, and from update to update I eventually got back to 4.1.2 but had new animation startup stuff...
My phone came pre-rooted and pre-recovery, but this recent flash killed those and now im looking to get back to that point. I'm unaware if my radios or whatever are jacked up or not because I never intended to use the device with a service as I get by just fine on Wifi only.
I found something called GAIO but the original page is offline and i cant download it.

Well, by your own admission, you said you needed to flash the LS970 tot file, which wouldn't be in this forum, the AT&T LG Optimus G is the E970, it's distinct in that the back glass has the AT&T logo, for one. On the bottom center on the back glass it also says "LG-E970"
On the left side of the device, with the volume buttons, below them is a tab that pops open for the micro SDCARD and SIM card.
If the phone you hold in your hands doesn't have these distinctions, and you start flashing stuff from THIS forum and not the LS970 (aka Sprint LG Optimus G) You very well might brick, temporary or not, all over again.
That being said, with the correct kernel, MANY of our roms work just fine for your phone, but research and reading is a prerequisite for such.

[Q] Please Help, in trouble with LG Setup Wizard on LG Optimus 4X HD P880

Hello there,
I'm using a rooted LG Optimus 4X HD - P880 with the stock firmware. Or should I say I was using :crying:
Well everything started when I decided to flash some good looking roms into my rooted LG, I needed to unlock my bootloader so I did. ( I was using Os V20D_00 as I remembered but definitely a version newer than V20A_00) Everything was fine my phone got restarted and obviously then the Setup Wizard started.
That's ok till now. But after that, whenever I try to setup my phone, cause there's no way LG would let me access settings or any possible menu without setting it up, and "Unfortunately, LG Setup Wizard crushes " everytime I tried.
I should say that I have had uninstalled lg's base home launcher before (but replacing it with another app), and couple of google apps like hangouts and google plus. I never touched to G play or anything but I guess home launcher might be a/the problem, only guessing though and even if so I don't have the solution that's why I'm here :laugh:
I tried hard reset
I tried to reinstall stock firmware from using kdz V20A_00 and V10F_00 both
I tried to redo all rooting and unlocking bootloader processes. Yeah they work but the problem is I'm not able to flash any custom roms or gapps also cause my PC sees my phone only when it's on S/W Upgrade mode.. That to with no access to internal memory somehow, I can see its connected to LG Mobile Support Tool though.
So I'm pretty troubled right now. I wasn't using any recovery also.. (yeah, very noob thing to do, as I am kinda noob)
Device is on warranty but since I bugged my bootloader and all, I can forget about it if it needs to go and get fixed I guess..
So I would like to know if there is any solution that any of you knowledgeable gentlemans and ladies out there know..
I would be really glad if anyone can help me out.. :fingers-crossed:
Thank you.

LG volt 2 stuck in bootloop, firmware flash or large magnet?

I know the phone is newer, but maybe someone can still help. I tried to root my new boost mobile lg volt 2 that i just activated on ringplus. I used this lg one click method and it said it worked correctly, but now it just sits on the boot screen with the lg logo and never gets past it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-root-lg-firmwares-kitkat-lollipop-t3056951
I tried hard resetting via the stock recovery, but nothing changed. I searched and searched for firmware, but only found one supposed link in Chinese and the point/coin system to enable downloading is impossible to figure out.
What else can i do here, anyone have any thoughts? Is there really no legit lg site for firmware? I seriously appreciate the help!
No one has any thoughts on getting this phone back to stock?
Back to Stock
While we're at it, if we could get a stock rom for the Boost version as well, that would be just ducky.
Yeah I'm on the boost version as well. I'm kind of surprised that there isn't more support for this decent little cheap phone.

Hard Brick after 20j to 20e revert- Don't do it!

UPDATE: Read this!
TLDR: Don't flash 20j update and try to revert....== HARD BRICK
Long version:
The new 20j update has the Anti-Rollback feature tag set that you can NOT revert back to 20e.......You will HARD BRICK your V10 if you do so. I have...and a few others have.
I was on Eliminater74 20e rom, which is excellent. But he released a P1 .zip for the new 20j update. This contains new bootloader etc. (no P2 which is the actual rom for 20j yet.)
This will boot on 20e, but users (myself included) noticed video issues with YouTube and soon after, others reporting that video recording is broken now.
Naturally, we thought to revert and flash back to the 20e bootloader P1. zip.......and that caused HARD BRICK. Phone gets stuck in Qualcomm Emergency Bootloader mode that is not recoverable.
FIX: Contact " tungkick" http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4965298
He helped me un-brick phone. No data was lost! Was quite easy actually. ( I don't see his methods or files he used released here on XDA publicly) (if it is i'm blind.) So don't ask me...contact "" tungkick" .
See post here for instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-v10/development/debrick-phone-h901-qualcomm-9008-t3440359
I did the same thing, flash tool isnt picking up phone either, I think we are hard bricked at this point...

So I booted to TWRP and flashed the olde rP1 .zip for the orginal bootstock and hit reboot system and no...Nothing!

I was just about to start a new thread asking if I could flash back to previous marshmallow. Anti rollback may be in effect. If you have all the correct drivers installed it sounds to me like a hard brick. Hopefully I'm wrong and someone can help you

And....I assume a hard brick is very bad...not easy to fix? I messed up my G3 once, but at least it would show some sign of life.
I am not at all experienced with adb or fastboot..and how to get all that to work...I have tried, but with no success. Don't suppose there is someone I can send my phone to have it unbricked?

Oh guys.... I am pretty sure that I've read around here and there that when you get that Qualcomm message you're not recoverable. I surely hope I'm wrong!
Sent from my pretty nifty brand new LG V10
Yea....it sucks. I have literally been up all night trying every method I can to recover from the Qualcomm Emergency Bootloader mode I'm stuck in. There are some LG programing tools that seem to be fake/scam by some user...but those were for the G3 and G4 anyway. Nothing I tried worked.
Just bought the V10 2 months ago used off swappa, already rooted, twrp etc..about $300. Just got the thing all setup the way I wanted it too...sigh. THis is what I get for not being patient and seeing what others experience before flashing something so new.
I was slightly aware of an "Anti-rollback" thing,,,but had no idea it would apply to same and inter-version version of OS. I still don't get why flashing the 20j bootstack on top of the current 20e rom would have caused the video freezing of youtube issue. Standard troubleshooting measures dictated to flash back to the 20e Bootstack to see if the issue went away(I have flashed back and forth bootstack etc on my G3 before with no issues).
Whelp......I guess myself and the other user (SIGMAxB) the 2 confirmed hard bricks served as the community warning........and my very first hard brick and loss of a device in such a fashion. THankfully, I was able to find last night another used V10 on Swappa that is already root and TWRP...for slightly less money that what I paid for my now bricked device. Least I had made an LG backup last week, and all my data is on the External SD card...but still gonna be annoying to have to start over......
Any mad scientist or master flasher who knows how to recover such a bricked device... I would be interested in sending it to them to fix....(I doubt T Mobile will give me a new one, nor wil LG Service the device. It's still under LG warranty, but their site requires u upload a copy of the receipt, and their terms state only covers original owner. So used phone off Swappa.....does not qualify. )
Dropped off my phone at a place called CPR (Cell Phone Repair). Thier location near me is more advanced than most others in that they can do data recovery and software kind of things. They said they may be able to fix phone, but he isn't very sure. Said there will be some techs in tomorrow that are more advanced that may be bale to help. I personally don't have much hope, but worth a shot at this point.
Until then...using my Moto X Pure for now...while I wait for the replacement V10 i bought off Swappa to arrive.
That really bites man.....I'm sorry.
I'm a prepay customer....they have different policies for us vs post paid customers.
I called 611 and got transferred around a bit. But finally got them to process a warranty exchange. I have to ship them the phone and they will send me a new one....hopefully. They didn't mention anything about a charge.
So at least I have that option to pursue should CPR place fail to reflash phone.

I did the same thing. It really sucks because I been doing this for over 5 years and this is my first brick. I guess thats what we get for having faith in a developer that should of known or properly tested this before putting a rom out.

While I agree that things should be tested...or otherwise noted that it has or hasn't been so.... (OP does have Status: Testing posted)
It wasn't the rom, his 20e rom runs great. But the updated P1 20j(bootloader)zip....it was the act of reverting and flashing the previous Bootloader version that caused the Hard Brick.
Until this point, I (and many others here) had not seen anything about the Anti-Rollback feature being an issue while on the same Android OS version (LP or MM builds). Now we know it is.
Additionally, the other posts on Eliminater74, rom forum....are indeed users reporting issues with the 20j zip...(mainly Video recording and YouTube streaming). However, the phone is not bricked.
Unfortunately, it's on us folks who flashed it right after it was released and then tried to revert who got screwed. It is definitely a good idea to wait a few days after something is posted to be sure others, mainly early adopters, don't report issues. If your phone is mission critical and you can not be without it or risk having a issue, then modding is not what you should be doing. Or at the very least, once you do get something flashed and stable.....stick with it (that voice in the back of my head was telling me this when i decided to try the update).
I am not sure as to how Eliminater74, had tested the P1 20j bootstack flashed to his 20e rom....but yes,,,,it does suck that this happened...but I am kicking myself in the head...not the dev. At least mine and the 2 others gave him waring and he was able to post a big red warning on the OP. Though I would suggest he remove the 20j part.....but that is up to him.
Least i had a backup phone to make use of until i can get a new V10...very annoying to have do so...but its something.
PS: I am actually starting to like my Moto X Pure more. Dual front facing speakers really nice. ON stock rom now, but used Bliss or while....that's is very nice and super tweakable. Screen isnt has sharp as the v10....and camera is just super basic. I also miss tap to unlock and the other LG specific features...but stock android is growing on me. The BT toggle has a dropdown to select devices to connect to right there, very convenient.
I'm definitely buying LG phones

Bricked phone after Flashing Custom Rom

My Lg G5 (Tmobile) keeps on rebooting to recovery mode (TWRP) no matter what rom I flash. I tried using LG Up software but no matter how many times I install the driver phone is not recognized. Firstly I flashed Fulmics ROM then I installed LineageOS (Cyanogenmod) after that phone was working fine for a while till I saw an update and tried updating it to new nightly version. Please help me out if anyone knows how can I fix this issue.
You probably need to put the phone in download mode and then try LG up otherwise try pushing a rom that works through adb

Also make sure you use autoprime version of LGup

I am sure this method would fix it but I already returned my phone and got new one as I had 1 year warranty. I bought it from T-mobile and I locked the bootloader before turning in the phone so it doesn't look like I was trying anything fishy. Now instead of phone going to twrp each time it goes to boolop saying "device is currupted and won't boot". It won't go to recovery mode no matter what I do and hope I don't get charged from T-mobile saying this and that.
However, I am really grateful to all of you great people who tried their best to help and you sir actually threw me a solution but I was too impatient to wait for it. I know this method will work no matter what as I had been using this tool for my G2 in old days and fixed the worse bricks where I had to openup the whole phone take battery out and stuffs like this. I was looking for this method found everything but LG tool asked me for .dll file which I couldn't find anywhere and decided to give up on it...
Thank you for your help and now I know I am not going to be bricked anymore as I have this method to work with in future issues and am her waiting badly for Xposed to be available for Nougat.

Good to hear that, You are welcome,
And as you mentioned about "device is corrupted and won't boot", that's because you locked bootloader. And as you were using twrp which means modified system partition so phone said that. But you can still go to download mode and use the method to make it live or can try unlocking bootloader to start twrp.
I experienced similar situation. I thought I had to send my phone for repair. As I was able to put the phone to download mode, I used uppercut with downloaded kdz file from LG G5 development thread and restored my phone. I didn't use my phone for four days thinking that I had to take to a phone shop or send to service center. But after careful reading of unbrick tutorials, I brought my phone back to life. Now I can play flashing anything as I am confident that I can easily unbrick my phone.

A few days ago I got my G5 H830 and came with version 6.0.1 h83010i, looking for information on how to install custom rom, I read the post to install the .TOT file to be able to install TWRP and through this the Custom Rom, until there is Everything okay, I did everything right, but then I decided to go back to the Rom stock, on the night of that same day I saw that when I reboot my cell phone it stuck on the LG logo and it had some color pixels damaged (but no screen Damaged, if not because of small brick) then force a restart and continued the same, I did factory reset by stock recovery and then normal start, I went to sleep leaving it in 100% battery, and when I wake up in the morning the cell phone It is off, when I turn it on 5% and I get scared, then I wanted to go back to custom rom to leave those problems behind, but then when I install the TOT again and install the custom ROM it will restart half installed and any rom that installed it would stay Stuck and the LG logo and a bootloop until when it was flash the kdz several times until the cell did not want to ignite more, the pc does not recognize it or anything, I need help with this.
