I made this post because I wanted to see if there was any RS988 developer news, ROMS, Kernal, anything
It looks like the RS988 will get Android 8 Oreo... But it looks like it will take a while as with the Nougat update
I got the exact same e-mail. Hopefully we do get Android 8 Oreo.

On paranoid Android and so far it's stable. But video recording seems iffy. Haven't been able to get a video to save. But I'll be trying different camera apps
Just bought this phone. Gonna see what I can do with it in the next few weeks. I see we need a better TWRP port, I'll try and work on that in the next few days.

Would quick charge be working or is it still locked to 350ma? Just checked the official thread and the bug is coming from lineage os and seems to be a kernel issue.

I've been diving into that issue, haven't figured it out yet. But I'm sure it won't be long.
Hey,
Just bought a G5 RS988 and am struggling to find a good guide for bootloader unlock. I know that's not quite what this thread is about, but I'm sure many others will look for it here. Anyone able to give me a link? Or, if you'd rather, pm me and I'll delete this post if you feel it doesn't fit.
Thanks!
Edit:
Nevermind. Found a generic one here that worked: http://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev?categoryId=CTULRS0702
Where are you getting TWRP from? All I can find is this as it's not on the TWRP site: https://build.nethunter.com/test-builds/twrp/lge/twrp-3.0.2-1-rs988.img
Also, is this a good thread to use for rooting? https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/how-to/root-rooting-rs988-t3580660
I'm struggling to find promising answers to any of my searches, and there certainly isn't a thread that contains a valid list of all these useful tidbits.

The links you have will work ok... There is no official TWRP yet that I am aware of just as there are no official ROMs (that I know of) there are however unofficial Lineage and Paranoid Android ROMs, and unofficial TWRP
There is a tool from LG that will preform bootloader unlock
I hope this helps

So I've been on a slim-stock rooted ROM (I believe this one) of OB1 variety (Lollipop 5.0) and figured why the hell not update to the newest 5.1.1 base since I've been back into phone stuff trying to get my dad's new T-Mo S4 all freshly rooted and updated .
I was thinking of installing this OJ4 (5.1.1) ROM but then noticed that the current modem/kernel/stock .tar files in this wonder thread here say NH4 is the newest version and there's no mention of neither OJ4 nor OB1...which made me have an utter "WTF" moment. Why doesn't that list have either of them on there? My phone's current baseband/moden is OB1, which is what one'd expect from a OB1 ROM without its modem separately updated...but why are NEITHER of them in that list??
Someone please tell me I'm not the only one who finds that downright strange or could help shed light on this mystery, thanks!
TL;DR= Trying to update to OJ4 (5.1.1) and not sure if I have to THEN update everything I can to NH4 after the fact.

Thanks okay. There's a reason they coined the phrase "brain fart". Sometimes something so simple evades you!
No tests have been done on this rom, I compiled it remotely it may or may not boot, I am unable to test due to my work, I work away from home, no computer and can't risk phone while away from home, I will do my own test once I get home and have complete access to computer.
Again this is untested alpha, all risks are on you, I can't provide and help, make sure you know how to get your phone in and out of bootloops, make sure splash tool is working for your phone, if something goes wrong you may need it to restore your phone.
To all that test this rom good luck, and post back your results, those that choose not to test, not a problem I fully understand, this is not to be taken lightly.

Usually thats because of a bad download from my experience , since i used to get that error alot.
Thanks for testing, When I get home, I will test it on my phone, check logcat and see what I can find.
This will probably be my last public testing, The next test ROM I release will be private.
I will post notice here when ready, and those that tested this version and still want to test any future versions will receive a download link via pm.
Thanks to all that tested ROM.

Well, we all have a to start somewhere... An actual "stable" version of CM may never really happen. I'd be happy to try the first build that actually boots up. No matter how buggy it might turn out, just so I can give you feedback and get a general sense of what this phone should feel, look like and behave out of the box.
I really miss the several options and customizations from CM ROMs... But above all, I really miss having a nicely made custom kernel with a good kernel manager app (like EX kernel manager) to set it up exactly the way I like it... I have faith in this device. Particularly because this phone is selling so well. I really hope for an official CM development for the R1 HD. Hopefully even a good custom kernel...! That would be awesome! Maybe then I'd be able to retire my Nexus 5. I have really missed having an external SD card... 64GB vs 32GB makes a huge difference.
I think the problem is in the boot.img, the init.

any news from lineahe os rom for vs985 other lg g3 have this rom
I would look in the Original Development forum for any news possibly if it ever comes to the VZ985. From the Lineage OS web site, it only lists the D855, so until they update that page, or if someone else downloads the source and ports it to the VS985, I doubt we'll see it, especially since this is over 2 years old and most developers have probably moved on to bigger and better things.
And just because other versions of a phone have it, doesn't mean it will be available for all versions. It all depends on which versions of the phone the developers have.

I unfortunately can't help you there. First, I no longer have my G3 as it died back in December. Sad day.
Secondly, I ran stock, unrooted and I was able to get about 1.5 days on a full charge, as long as I didn't play my games. lol
Good news! LineageOS 14.1 will be rolling out for vs985 this week.

As it is an initial release, there might be some bugs, but as far as I know, I haven't found out any, but battery optimisation is not so good and the phone heats up. And I think many features are missing, because the file size of lineageos for d855 is around 390mb and that of vs985 is only around 350 mb.
I hope they'll add all of the features in future updates.
Also, if you were using substratum, you cannot use it in this rom very well because this is not a substratum (masquerade) enabled rom. I reverted back to Resurrection remix today.
Ive been running it since yesterday. some issues:
I can onlyget root through ADB, despite flashing the Super SU twice. They are aware of this issue
I couldnt' get Gapps to install correctly. That may be due to the fact that I tried to use The Aroma package. I'm not familiar with that one.
You cannot turn on developer options, tapping the build number 8 times only brings you to the home screen and a large logo that wont' go away until restart.
It's very early for this release and it looks good so far. I''ll be back, but I just bought this device (for development/learning purposes) and I want to try some more roms
Thanks for the heads up about early issues on LineageOS. When I saw they had a version for the VS985 I figured it might be worth some risk to check it out. Unfortunately (or fortunately) I couldn't get it to flash.
I am on Android Version; 5.0.1
Baseband; VS985-MPSS.DI.2.0.1.c1.13.00073-M8974AAAANPZM-1
Kernel; 3.4.0-perf-g2d182d3
Build number; LRX21Y
Software Version; VS98524B
I tried unsuccessfuly to flash the 35B bootstack so I could never get into LineageOS 14.1. (It looks for 35B during install) Maybe I will wait a while and see if LineageOS cleans up a bit before trying to flash it again.
I've had a change of heart. Here is the deal Im going to make to all of you! If you have nothing nice to say then don't say it. If you are going to quote me and criticize me like one of the most recent posts then please go away. I'm purely posting so you guys know something is being done.I don't need anyones trust because it is fact that if you don't believe that i'm dong this then yes that is your problem. Anyways just don't comment if you have nothing to say then please don't say it. I have went through a lot and a lot of hours trying to figure out something while you guys just wait.... Anyways our dev is back to help and somebody is helping out with it. We are going to get it to work this time. Last few things have been a bust.

Hey Everyone,
If you are reading this thread you care about the LG v10 getting rooted on android 6.0 Marshmallow! Great, so here is what's happening behind the scenes at the moment. Right now there are two different possible ways our phone is going to get root, there are two different people working on a general root. The one is going through a tough time and is taking some time to himself, which is okay, somebody's life is more important than a root method. The second guy just had a post to xda about him rooting the LG k10, now there is no guarantee this will work on our V10 buuuuuttttttt, this is very similar to what our first guy is working on so a few modifications and we could get something up and running, whichever comes first. We've been waiting a long time and I understand that. I know it can be discouraging and frustrating. You will have a weekly update from me on what is going on with the status and if something fails and we give up in any sort, you will know about it. I promise we are trying to find a way! You guys have any comments or questions I will be posting another thread with the link below. I will gladly respond to any questions or information you have for me! It can be a simple question or in depth, I can help you out and save you time! You may post on this thread buy let's keep it cleaned up because this is where I will post updates and the root method once it's finished! Don't get discouraged, we will find a way!\
Sincerely,
@abine45 and @alvinator94
UPDATE 2/19 :
Hey everyone,
I got some good news! Today, we are working on packaging up the root, this is not tested, so no guarantees that this will work, but it should! I am not going to give details right now about how we are trying to obtain this until It's tested. I might have a select few test along with us after our test just to be extra positive it works. With this, though I have more news, if this does work, we could very possibly obtain twrp!!!! That's our next step after root. It would most likely be released together! That is all for today!! PLEASE COMMENT BELOW IF YOU ARE WILLING TO TEST!!!!

If I had the device I'd take a gander at making a recovery. I'd even make a CWM just for the fun of it if possible. Keep in mind I've never ported a recovery but I don't imagine the process is that difficult.

My guess is that the Android One variant will have A/B partitions for seamless updates, so there's going to be a different recovery and install method. All devices endorsed by Google since the launch of the Pixel use the new partition table and this results in difficulty in 3rd party development. Pixel doesn't have an official LOS ROM yet and just got official Magisk last month. It's going to be a rough start, but the community will grow.

We are able to unlock the bootloader, Which means we can go Super CID. With Super CID we can flash (in DL mode) a magisk patched boot.img , and achieving root access. So next will be porting a recovery........ Get to work.

You don't need SuperCID to flash a boot.img. That's simply incorrect.
Also, there was a link posted in the U11 TWRP thread to a test TWRP build for the U11 Life. Not sure if anyone tried it, but there were also device files uploaded, so it's probably a good place to start.

Technically yes and no , there arent any Tmobile boot img's floating around, so it has to be another GSM boot img. To ensure there are no hiccups being SuperCID wouldn't hurt.

I repeat: SuperCID has nothing to do with flashing a boot.img. You can literally flash any boot.img that fits on your device (with a proper header & dtb) if the bootloader is unlocked. CID isn't involved. In fact, SuperCID leads to issues with Carrier customization on newer devices, and RUUs will only flash on devices with the correct CID, not SuperCID. I think that happened around the time of the M9 Marshmallow or Nougat update.
In fact, you don't even have to flash the boot.img. You can simply fastboot boot it, and you should still be able to achieve root. And then you can back up the stock boot.img so there IS a T-Mobile boot.img "floating around." If someone just downloads one of the RUUs from Easy Firmware, uses the Decrypt Tool to extract it, and then Magisk to patch it, it should be possible to dump all of the stock T-Mobile device partitions.
Haven't seen you around since the Evo LTE. But I may be getting the U11 Life pretty soon, so I should be able to contribute in some way or form to the development of the device.

I paid the 15 dollars from easy firmware hopefully it's not a scam website and real files. I'm down loading one now. I'll keep you posted

You don't even have to flash it. Just fastboot boot it from the bootloader and see if it works. That makes literally zero changes to your device. Nothing to risk at all.
Also, if you're not willing to soft brick your device for the purpose of testing, then there's no way you'll ever have a working TWRP.

It's a real website, and the files are all real. If you grab the combined signed RUU for the 617 region, you should be able to patch the extracted boot.img with Magisk for root.

Thanks and I'm willing to do anything it takes. I know the brick won't be forever I've been getting HTC since the evo days. I really do appreciate all your help.
