You CANNOT install a custom ROM on this device without unlocking the bootloader first. I'm guessing that you have "LG Security Error" printed on your screen just below LG's icon? Never never wipe your phone without making backups first. KDZ and or fastboot are your only alternatives to repair your device at this time. There are several tutorials here to get you back up and running. Search is your friend

ok.. holy moly.. lol 4.0.4 10g issues, and secure booting unsuccessful on p769 20b

ok, got my p769 back down to 10g via fastboot method.. now i got a issue, actually a big issue..
i can not root it to save my life at all, for whatever reason all the methods i tried cant see the phone.. ive reset this thing about 5-10 times now no luck.. checked drivers and let them install and still no luck..
i guess i cant just go to 20b without the bootstrap huh?,
edit, i just went to 20b got secure booting unsuccessful..., so went back down to 10g screen still messed up.. any ideas?

Help with att lg d631 return to stock

Hi. I'm new to the site. I've used the info from here but never had to ask for help. I have an LG D631 Vista that I rooted several months ago. I would like to uproot it so I can get the lollipop update. I've tried to uproot via online help but haven't had any luck. Now when I try to reroot it says it is rooted but on the phone itself it says its not via software but if I check via the dialer check still says rooted. With the lack of dev support for this phone I'm hoping that someone here might have a kdz file of the stock firmware I can flash back to original. I'm on D63110b. I've tried to reroot and unroot multiple times with no luck. Right now I can use the phone but I can't update nor root to get back the functionality I had. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Pls I need stockrom for LG d631

H830 Stuck in Firmware Update

Hey XDA, I'm having a bit of a problem. I got my G5 just recently and I wanted to go ahead and unlock the bootloader so I could install some custom ROMS (I'm not a fan of LG's ux), but I ran into a sticky situation. I was trying to flash the TOT file for rooting h830 with LGUP when I found out that it doesn't work on Nougat. I tried to cancel it but now I'm just stuck in firmware update at 0%. The code at the bottom says 633A B50. I can get into fastboot but I can't really go anywhere from there and I've gotten to stock recovery but all it does is factory reset and boot me straight back to firmware update. I downloaded the stock nougat kdz file but LGUP won't flash it; sometimes it says invalid, other times it gives me the error code 0x2000 CEFS::Initialize. This is a brand new (kind of expensive) phone and I can't send it to LG for repairs since I unlocked the bootloader and probably voided warranty so I'm really desperate for a solution. Can anyone help me out?

Was your phone on the 20a version before you tried flashing the 10d root tot file and did you actually cancel the process within LGUP while it was flashing the phone?
Another user had a similar problem but he flashed the 20a version before he accidentally flashed the 10d root tot and he fixed it by just flashing the stock 20a within LGUP.
Assuming you can still get into download mode you should be able to fix your device.
Try flashing this kdz uploaded by @autoprime
downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G5/H830/H83020a/H83020a_00_1107.kdz
If flashing is successful factory reset your phone from the stock recovery after.
Thanks, that worked but I had to do a little tinkering before it did. LGUP wouldn't flash it because it kept saying invalid and some other random reasons but I found a program called uppercut that allowed it to flash. I was able to get back to stock and then I used the dirtycow exploit to flash TWRP. All's good now on XenonHD.
so I thought I had a grasp on the unlocking rooting myself. I was getting the error in lgup where it doesn't recognize my device at all. I unlocked the oem and it did its own flash afterwards then I had to go and reset unknown sources. then I tried to do the lg up flash assuming all I needed from my 20i was the v10d arb01 may 23, I picked the upgrade and in the middle of it it failed. then it rolled back. so I tried it several more times in lgup and it failed so I tried the arb 01 march 4 with full root and it failed.
Edit: okay lI found uppercut and it reconnected me to LGUP then I used the flashable 20a file and that patched me right up. But no root, I can do a 1 click now I guess but what about a flashable twrp or can I just install it like the old cwm or x-parts? where to now? do I try the 10d one with root? I'm really tired of looking and blindly downloading tot and kdz files hoping they work? My main goal is to slap RR remix on this for anyone that would give me a hand
