Hi folks,
Ive been having a strange problem with a couple Galaxy Mega I9200. I have rooted both before without any problems using KINGO originally. The i decided to update both of them with version UBUCNA2. When i tried to re root them back, even though the process have run fine a couple times the phone is not rooting. At this point i dont know what else to do to try to root those phones. I have tried every single method around this forum i think not just KINGO this time. And have not been able to reach root the way it should. Titanium backup shows not able to aquire root priviledges, and other root apps also. Can someone please help me on this?? Keep in mind im not a newbie so dont give me the recovery method advice without something new or to use KINGO because ive have done that already. Thanks a lot guys
You upgraded your phones to the latest knox enabled firmware which has the knox bootloader. You cannot go back to an older firmware or flash a custom rom now.
To root, try the directions provided in this thread and use the melius3gxx files instead of meliusltexx.

Ok thanks, the phones already had the knox apk so my guess was that it was going to be the same thing. Thanks for clarifying that one. And thanks for the advice.
Thanks again, turns out the only thing that is failling root access is when i try to unlock the phone via box. For some reason when its checking for SU access it fails. But thanks anyway i managed to solve the Root problem.

I rooted through Phill touch Recovery.
My wife insisted on remaining stock on her VS985... Until the lolliplop update. She wants her kitkat back and I cannot find a way to do it yet. I have successfully rooted it but cannot get a custom recovery install to stick. I have tried the methods that I know for the kitkat version, to install philz and twrp and get an error message upon reboot. Has an exploit been figured out yet to downgrade from stock lollipop?
I use the kdz method to return to 10b stock http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-lg-g3/general/guide-flash-to-stock-10b-kdz-method-t2928140
After you are rooted http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/orig-development/root-stump-root-lg-g3-sprint-verizon-t2850906 and on 10b i use flashify to flash the twrp img. From there just find a nice stock KK rom for her.
This is just how i do things and find it fairly easy.
Or directly flash the 12B KDZ, use the new root script if you want her phone rooted and use Flashily from the Play Store to flash TWRP.

I wasn't aware of the new root script. Got anymore info or a link to this. Can't say I've seen anything about it.

Thank you both!
The One Click Root works like a boss.
It worked effortlessly on my new phone.
I sticking with 12B rooted too, as it seems to be a good solid O/S.
I rooted without issue, I was stuck at installing twrp. I did get it to work, using autorec! Slapped twrp in, and romed out to jasmine 4. I hope that this helps others out down the road.
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
GRRR transpyre root

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
I want to root my VS985, but did the last 5.1.1 update and now the 6.0.
Are there clear instructions anywhere on how to root this thing? I tried to root a few weeks ago but could not find good instructions with download links that worked well.
Am I more screwed now that I took the 6.0 upgrade?

Kingroot had been reported by a bunch of people to work on 46A. Google for it, don't look in the Play Store for it.
I have no personal experience with it.

Hello,
I have used Kingroot to root 35b, and then i removed Kingroot and replaced it with SuperSU. I found the instructions within these forums.
My questions is, I'm currently on 35b (rooted), and I want to be on 46a rooted.
What is the process of me going from 35b rooted to 46a?
Once I am on 46a, I will try the Kingroot process.
Thank you,
dmoney98
I tried kingroot and it completes with success and root checker from the playstore also confirms root worked. However when the phone reboots it loses root. I tried to install twrp via the playstore app and it worked but I cannot boot into it, i get a message "boot verification fail" that pops up in a tiny window in the top left of the screen whenever I try to go into recovery. I tried a factory reset, but that does not work either. Guess I am stuck till I figure out how to get a proper root done.

One of two options:
1. You need to put TWRP (custom recovery) on. The easiest way to install TWRP is to downgrade from 35B using the TOT method (which requires the new .DLL from the 35B KDZ) to 10B, then root using the Stump app and use TWRP Manager from the Play Store to install TWRP, then you can flash @xdabbeb 's 46A ROM in the Development section. With this option you won't have to re-root once you're on 46A, plus you won't have to deal with Kingroot at all.
2. The other option is to flash the 35B KDZ (you could probably use Normal mode so it doesn't wipe your user data and internal storage) and then take the 46A OTA.

Yep, you can't install TWRP that simply after 10B. Has nothing to do with the way you rooted. See my post above for the easiest way to put TWRP on.
Are the instructions and files here: http://lgflashtool.net/index.php/tot-method/ what i need? Since I tried to install twrp already will I need to install the stock recovery separately or is that part of the image used during the TOT method?

Flashing via TOT or KDZ completely wipes your phone (your internal storage, data and system, but external storage is left alone), including the the recovery and replaces it to complete stock, so yes, it will "unbump" your phone and you'll be back to stock status.

Yes, that's the correct instructions, with the possible exception of the .DLL file. There's a thread in the General section with W*A*R*N*I*N*G in the thread title. Near the bottom of the first post in it has the new .DLL.
I have my T-Mobile LG V-10 rooted with Sir-Altus rom currently.
Without starting a fight or anything, I am trying to find out how I could go about restoring my phone to stock to be able to accept the Marshmellow update successfully without bricking my phone.
I understand that there is a difficulty in rooting Marshmellow and I am OK with that.
Can anyone link to a step-by-step on how to restore my phone to fully stock so I can accept the Marshmellow update and apply it?
Thank you,

Should be pretty straight-forward. Also as an FYI, you now CAN root you LG V10 starting from 6.0 (Marshmallow) stock. So there's really not much risk involved. I think the upgrade from 5.1.1 to 6.0 relocks your bootloader so...i don't think you have to do much. If you have an upgrade option in your settings on the phone you can take it or you can go to the LG website and download the software and follow the steps. http://www.lg.com/us/support/mobile-software-updates
Can I accept the update on the phone rooted and with TWRP installed?
"I wouldn't do it by just downloading the update and installing it through the ui", you'll probably get stuck in a boot loop on the lg logo boot screen! Try researching kdz or tot flashing! Youll then only have to click a few times on your PC and after that the file should just upgrade the phone through your USB hub
You can uodate using Eliminater74's Rom.
Flash Part 1 - Dont Reboot
Flash Part 2 - Dont Reboot
Flash Super SU
*in Eliminater74s Rom OP it says to use Fastboot again to OEM unlock. Just read it thoroughly*
