I have a lg v10, d motherboard imprint is f600l, but the software info is f600s and I want to upgrade to nougat. I don't know which software to flash, if I flash f600s software, it might have malfunction issue (fingerprint not working, unable to uninstall etc) and if I flash f600l, it might result in dead phone. Please i need help. Lollipop is bored.
Thanks.

After I make a wifi update , my P760 crash, .... wifi is not working.
My phone was rooted before update.
I try downgrade, recovery with original software, nothing,...wifi is not working.
On wifi menu, I see that WPS push button, WPS pin entry, wi-fi direct is greyed , only Advance is working, but on this menu Network Notification is greyed out,...mabe from here is the problem.
Someone has this problem, some solution?, some ideas?
Thak you!
So what ROM are you ON now (after downgrade/recovery)?
If nothing else, ONLINE flash LG official ROM(kdz) is always the last thing to try, and should be able to fix your problem.

I make last week a downgrade to 20B, no result, ...now I have latest 20H EUR, make with LG tool, latest from LG.
My phone is still in warranty, but I understand that is lost if I rooted phone.
Now phone in not rooted, only bootloader say that is unlocked.
Is possible to cheat warranty service?
Let's make it clear: you already tried to flash different versions of KDZ files with factory reset every time, and in all cases, WIFI is not working?
Once bootloader is unlocked, you lost warranty, and there is no way to re-lock the bootloader for our phone.
If both of the above is correct, my advice is to try your luck with warranty service. They might take the phone and not bother with your bootloader.
If you want to try cheating warranty service try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2404035 as i read on mother therad on http://forum.android.com.pl phone will boot only once after this changes. next boot will cause security error on LG Logo screen, it was tested by one user so information is not well verified. bring them working phone and if you get lucky they will brick it .

... yes, I try different versions of kdz and factory default. No result,....but is strange, after wifi update to crash imediately,....i think that is something software,...but with other kdz and reset need to be ok,...maybe is something that is not in kdz file.
solved, going to service, replaced motherboard.
So i woke up today to my device telling me it is rent a center locked, what the hell does this mean? I bought it from CL and and its been working for months, anyway to get rid of this or am i screwed?
Does CL stand for Clove, the UK electronics vendor? What variant and any modifications?
It sounds like you bought a phone that was rented from rac and not paid for.

Craigslist sorry, and its the RS988
Anyone? My phone is screwed im stuck with nothing;(
After looking around for you, I noticed most of the people with the Samsungs that had that issue ended up having to go to cm13 until they finally found a way to get around it. Considering the RS988 is not bootloader unlocked, doesn't have root or twrp available for it it looks like you are pretty much out of luck. One file I have seen mentioned is sec.abt, however I have also read that people have had issues removing it. Have you tried flashing factory firmware back to it again or a factory reset? Both didn't work on the samsungs, however it seems like there isn't any info for the lg's. Google searching also shows there are imei repair companies that can supposedly do it for $40-$80 from what I have seen. If you figure out how to fix it, share it in case anyone else gets burned by a scammer.
LG RS988 Rent a center lock Remove
Any one have any lg rent a center lock lg G5

I know this is a dead thread, but I think I figured out how to get rid of the RAC (rent a center) lock for good. The rac lock uses a system administrator profile along with a program called sec.abt that can not be removed or frozen. If you manage to uninstall it is just reinstalls itself. I was not able to find any information on how to remove this without using special hardware like an octopus box that costs hundreds of dollars.
I used LGUP with the uppercut modification (can be found here on XDA) along with the KDZ files from here https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-rs988-firmwares/
I was only able to find the USA RSS 11C firmware until I found the page linked above with the BPT 10D firmware. Whenever you flash the stock 11C USA firmware the RAC program comes back, however if you use LGUP and uppercut to flash the BPT 10D firmware using the upgrade option (refurbish will error out) I found that my device booted correctly and seemed to work, however I did not have any fastboot options and it said there were no updates available (you need fastboot to unlock the bootloader and the latest update grants that ability). I then reinstalled the USA 11C firmware and to my delight found that the RAC software and device administrator profile were gone.
I then checked for updates and it started download the latest update. I believe I will not have a problem unlocking the bootloader and rooting from this point on. I'll let you guys know if anything changes.
I'm only posting this because I have been sitting on a RAC locked phone for months that got locked over six months after I bought it used and really hope this can help someone else that got screwed over.
I have an octopus box and can you point me to the partition this security sits on? I have an unlocked bootloader us996 and I can use fastboot to erase the partition . Do you know?
Nailed it

This worked for me on a LG G5 i've had in a box since last October because of the same kind of craigslist scam BS. Thank you so much!
Could you walk me through this I need to get my phone unlocked, Tia
I am an owner of LG V10 and I just bricked it and I need your help. I tried to downgrade with LGUP and other tools and the result was to have a non working phone. My phone cannot boot and it goes straight to Firmware Update screen. Bootloader is locked and it wasn't rooted. I hope that someone can help me.
So, I had recently bought a brand new LG G6 from my friend I work with. He hadn’t used it in a while due to upgrading to the S20, and the phone is FRP locked. Phone is all in good standing, clean IMEI and everything. The problem I’m facing here, is that I have LGUP 1.14 and uppercut and the correct official KDZ file to flash to remove the FRP, yet every time I use Uppercut and LGUP opens, the flash fails and it tells me “please use latest DLL. LAF protocol is not match. I have tried countless DLLs, different versions of LGUP, This things got me beat. I know I shouldn’t post this here but XDA wouldn’t let me create anything other than the Q&A section. How should I go about this? Thanks in advanced. Also, the phone model is VS988T, it is on the msm8996 chipset.
Greetings.
I recently bought an LG V60 from one of the ebay sellers which has the Dual Screen kit included. All seemed fine almost like new but the back panel has a small gap on the left side corner with a very small scuff on the AL frame near it. I want to send it to LGE for repair / diagnostic service want them to check about the battery status and overall condition. They are gonna charge $30 and Shipping is on me. They will re-flash the phone with latest Firmware as I was told by a rep in the live chat. I like this phone as It has a lot of tech which is useful like Dual Screen, 3.5mm jack, SD slot, 64Mp, Pen support, Bootloader Unlock, solid community knowledge and more.
So my questions are -
Once they Reflash the phone to latest OS, it is running Android 10 out of box (I did not even check the OS but it should be that and I did not unlock Bootloader yet) so it will be updated to Android 13. After doing that can I still unlock the bootloader and install all the nice things like Magisk + Rootchecker disabler + Downgrade the OS to 10 or 11 using LGUP and TMo official firmware ? I presume LG does not deploy ARB (Anti Rollback) from what I read in the past month but I want to check with community who is knowledgeable enough with this device.
Will that also re-lock the Carrier ? I have TMo sim only anyways but just curious if this will lock the SIM too.
Please share your experience with LGE or anything related to the subject.
Thank you very much for your time.

I would just download the latest firmware from the link below,and do a factory refurbish with LGUP.Just make sure the bootloader is relocked is the key.Sim unlock wil remain in place,as long as they send you the same device back with the same IMEI number.I assume when you get it back,it will have A13 and you may have to downgrade it to re-root etc.You're good,just do those main things!

Thank you very much for your reply.
Hm, so if I understand clearly. Basically I may need to downgrade the firmware to A10 and then re-root once I get back. And the SIM unlock might not be effected. That's good to hear.
As for the initial aspect you mentioned which I bolded, what do you mean by that ? Did you meant I should get the latest firmware and and just do a refurbish option from LGUP, may I please know what would that achieve because even if I flash / unlock bootloader the LG Service center will restore it to the factory settings and then perform a diagnostic, thus wiping everything on the phone perhaps they will even lock the bootloader.

I mean don't send it to LG with an unlocked bootloader.They can refuse to repair it,and consider it tampering.Plus,they can still charge you a diagnostics fee as well.LG stop supporting bootloader unlocking past the v40 series for developer purposes is my point.For the firmware,it won't matter what build you refurbish it with.Once you refurb it the root is gone anyway.Just relock it,and pick the kdz of your choice and refurbish.Box it and ship it!You'll be good!

Understood now.
Just a small clarification from my side. The phone is not yet bootloader unlocked (it's locked right now), it's just running Android 10 stock firmware. Just SIM unlocked by the ebay seller. I did not even use the phone yet.
And once they get the device they will re-flash it to Android 13 build and then do the diagnostics. I think I should be good ? As in no need to just Refurbish because it's already running bone stock A10.
Once I get it back I will downgrade to A10 and unlock bootloader ?
Thank you again for your insight.

You can go to A10,A11 or A12 once you get it back.That will be your choice from there.You can still root and unlock the bootloader with the current files that's been posted in the forums.It's stock,just factory clear it and send it on it's way.You're good!
Got it, thanks a lot.
I will send this phone to them directly as-is with the A10 and hope they can fix the issues with it.
