TWRP for Nougat? - T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any information for installing TWRP for H901 Nougat 7 ?
I can't find anything...
I had to use Bridge update to fix my phone, now I'm looking for TWRP...

If you're on MM, get TWRP and do this:

If I were on MM I would not be asking this question..

This is the only way. No other option currently.

First are you rooted?
Second have you tried the ADB install of TWRP? That's the way I did it when I first got my phone.

There is no root for Nougat, I would have to have a recovery first to install a root if I remember right.
My boot loader is unlocked but I have not tried to install TWRP because I would like to know if there are any issues with putting TWRP with Nougat first.
I know how to do all this, I would like to know if anyone has already done it?

I wouldn't think there would be as I'm running TWRP. Since your bootloader is unlocked i think that is the hardest part, can you fastboot install it? I have upgraded from MM to N with a stripped Stock zip. I'd try it, worst case you just use LG bridge and are back to step 1.

Last I read, it's not a problem if you had TWRP with MM and upgraded to N.
not so sure if you took an OTA to N.

I get this error when trying to install TWRP;
"remote unknown command"
I found this on the web; lg has locked the fastboot commands. Until we have root you can't flash recovery.
Well sh***********************...:crying:

[Q] Unlock Bootloader, Custom Recovery and Root

Hey guys,
I am trying to prepare my Nexus 9 to receive root (when that happens) and I was wondering if unlocking the bootloader will suffice for the time being? That means it will wipe it once, and I can start using my Nexus 9 without worrying of wiping it in the future.
Then it means as soon as TWRP comes out with a version that supports Nexus 9 I just need to flash that (no need to wipe device) and then flash SuperSU (no wiping either)
Am I missing something here?
You're right but...
Hey ombadboy
I think this will work. Don't forget to enable the oem unlock in the developer settings before. Otherwise your try to unlock will fail. Maybe you shouldn't flash the first versions of twrp, because this will be the first one for Lollipop und encrypted storage. Just boot the image once and flash superSU. So you will still get OTA updates.
After unlocking you should be able to root without losing your data twice.
After a few time and if there are no more OTAs in the near future you can flash a stable TWRP image.

See the guide here. http://www.theandroidsoul.com/unlock-bootloader-nexus-9/
Thanks for the replied guys. Yes, that's exactly what I did; now I have an unlocked bootloader.
So if I understood this well, can I get root without flashing a custom recovery? If so, what's the purpose of flashing one?

The purpose of having a custom recovery is to flash custom roms.
Here's some info for root

Recovery allows you to flash anything to device without doing manually with root explorer, adb or fastboot. Can do most anything you can do with recovery with these 3 tools.

While you might be able to root ZV8, you can't install recovery from the OTA.
Flashtool back to zv4, root it, then install recovery. All of this is on zv4. Then you can flash Roms.

Darn, i kinda like how the ZV8 update is, plus i love the way CM is as well since the GS3 always had it installed. Does GPS work now with CM12 for the g3? Theres times where i need it and it never works. Ends up not locking my location.

problem with twrp and oos 3.x.x

hello,
my current situation: i am on oos 2.2.3, not rooted, twrp 3.0.1-0 running.
i want to install a 3.x.x oos, version, i wanted to install 3.1.2 first, cause oneplus site i can install that directly form 2.2.3 (no such info on 3.1.3 and 3.1.4)
when i try to install with twrp, it says "this package is for "Oneplus" devices, this is a "ONE"
i think i am using the wrong twrp version. tried to install the newest (3.0.3-0), but this one doenst work, can not boot into it.
please help
Best is to fastboot flash old OOS 2 recovery
Then, with it, flash the 2.2.3. Reboot. then Flash 3.1.4. with the recovery
First you need to flash official oxygen os recovery for android 5.1 lollipop https://s3.amazonaws.com/oxygenos.oneplus.net/OPX_recovery.img Now you will be able to boot the phone. Now download and copy oxygen os 3.1.4 to internal memory http://downloads.oneplus.net/devices/oneplus-x/ Reboot into recovery and flash the rom.
Aftrr successful flash of oos3 boot into fastboot and flash latest twrp from twrp website.. This time it should work.
thanks, it work with the costum recovery.
on 3.1.4 i installed a slightly older twrp form sparkfire (3.0.2 i think), rooting and installing xposed worked fine though.
is it important to have the latest twrp?
and another question. at some point in my hours long struggel with updating my opx i softbricked it. i guess my bootloader was locked and i tried to install another recovery. i expected it to be still unlocked from my first rooting months ago. when does the bootloader lock?

It is always recommended to use latest (bugs free)
You can use this one https://dl.twrp.me/onyx/twrp-3.0.3-0-onyx.img latest as of now. And no u didn't brick ur phone. U flashed a new twrp for old bootloader version. Thts y u got stuck with oneplus logo. Its all oneplus things. Its always preferred to use stock recovery for updating bootloader which is safe. Check your bootloader state by giving this cmds "fastboot oem device-info"

Yes it is. OP said that he's on OOS 3.1.3, so already on the new BL.

Need help/advice!

I did a data wipe accidentally in TwRP. Meant to just get cache. Now I lost root/TWRP apparently. Just recently updated to 20c. I have no recovery when I reboot but I still get the unlocked bootloader info when rebooting. Any ideas/help is greatly appreciated.

I don't see how wiping data would remove TWRP, but the way I'd reestablish TWRP once it's gone would be to LGUP the Tungkick 10d tot file and then use that TWRP to flash the 20c zip by Autoprime. Flash SuperSU one way or another and then have a blast. I'm sure there are other ways to accomplish all this, but this way is easy and has been reliable for me.
It seems that you can still boot the phone.
If you still have valid bootloader the issue is not that tricky.
Just do a "adb reboot bootloader" and reflash twrp, like how you installed them in the first place.
I'm not sure which exact version of twrp is compatible with v20*, but that should be easy to find anyway.
Then boot into twrp and flash supersu/magisk/any other thing you need.

So I did a factory reset from the settings menu. Now it boots back into TWRP. Weird. But that's it. No OS. Just the recovery. So I guess I'll try and flash a ROM and see if I can get that back. Thanks for trying to help.

Wasn't sure if I could do any 10s coming from 20C. I got into TWRP recovery but now I have no OS. Thanks for helping out.

Yeah, as long as the ARB is the same (ANTIROLLBACK 01) you can flash 10 after 20. I don't think 10a qualifies, but 10d should be okay from 20a or 20c.
It's a quirk of the G5 that TWRP can only be accessed from boot by factory reset of the phone. If you are already up and rooted, you can use a command or program AFTER boot to access TWRP without factory reset. But, for now, that's our doorway into TWRP from power-off.
Now that you're in TWRP you can sideload a ROM onto your SD and flash it, just remember to also flash the latest superSU zip afterward to ensure root (unless your ROM is pre-rooted.)

Is there a comprehensive, step by step guide on rooting the Nexus 9?

It has been a nightmare trying to figure out how to root this thing and I need some help. I've been using Google but every guide and video I come across just don't do it for me. They all say something about installing drivers but don't go any further in explanation and they all say something different. Any help would be appreciated.

Same simple instructions as for all Nexus.
Unlock bootloader.
Fastboot flash twrp
Use twrp to flash root solution (SuperSU, magisk, etc)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ne...ll-custom-recovery-root-t3200361/post62804370
All steps work, just need updated files. Like newest SuperSU or Magisk. Search of forum will work. Twrp link is fine. Don't worry about the posts in that thread saying it doesn't work anymore. Twrp has been updated to work perfectly.
I recommend magisk over SuperSU. Stable not beta.
Or you can extract the boot.img from the stock firmware image and patch it with magisk manager if you want to keep stock recovery for whatever reason. You can flash the patched boot.image with fastboot.

I have tried this method many times now and the tablet is not rooted. Looks like TWRP gets wiped every time I reboot?
Is there a new way to root the Nexus 9? Noone seems to have an update version?

Flash TWRP, then select reboot>recovery. Then TWRP should stick
