Hi all,
I've successfully rooted my H932. Magisk 18, rctd, no_verity, and LOS 16 are installed with latest TWRP. 3.2.3-7 installed on laf and recovery.
Sorry if this is a stupid question, the fingerprint reader is not working, and SGCMarkus suggested the reason was I wasn't on OREO firmware.
I'm pretty sure i'm still on 10d from KDZ when i rooted.
How do I update the firmware?...do I use LGUP with H93220p_00_1121.kdz and not install on LAF or RECOVERY and then flash Magiskj, rctd, and no-verity? Then put LOS 16 back over that with TWRP?
Can I use TWRP the whole way? I think LGUP stopped working after I flashed TWRP to LAF and RECOVERY...
Thx, Andrew

There's a thread with 20o and 20p zips that can be flashed in twrp to bring you up to stock Oreo. Once you've gone to either of those, then clean installed lineageos 16, your fingerprint reader should work. No guarantees, but it should.
did it work?
When I flashed to pixel rom, I flashed Brian's 20k zip, then pie and every thing worked perfect. Then flashed back to 20k then 20p I guess i would advise always flashing stock first. And if you had success with a procedure then make sure to follow the same prelimary steps when flashing another zip

I have a unlocked and rooted LG G5 (H850 EU variant) with TWRP installed. As I already read in other threads, I can not install with OTA anymore.
I want NFC and glance screen to work so I suppose I need to stick with the stock ROM. Also since I use Xposed, I don't want to update to Nougat for now. Is there any flashable ZIP that I can flash from TWRP with latest Marshmallow ROM? Is this the preferred way or should I rather use LGUp? What do I need to choose not to do a factory reset?
I highly recommend you to update to Nougat, as it is very stable and fluid (from my experience).
Here's the flashable zip for Android Marshmallow: (P.S. not sure if this is the latest version)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/stock-h850-10e-eu-rom-flashable-zips-t3448273
Here's the flashable zip for Nougat:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/stock-h850-20a-eu-rom-flashable-zips-t3506514
USE THEM ON YOUR OWN RISK.
You shouldn't worry about about not using LG UP,
As the zip files contains everything necessary for the update process including: modem, bootloader, etc. (Except the recovery partition, to keep TWRP in tact)
I've updated yesterday to nougat though TWRP, and all was perfect, I didn't do even a factory reset, and preserved root and data partition unencrypted (flashing an extra .zip), so I too advise you to make the upgrade.
pd.: Not OTA nor LGUP worked for me
I am from HK, forgive my bad english please...
I just buy a UK version v30 (H930)
I have a few question about:
1) I hope to use android 8.0. can I upgrade the phone to last version of H930? my phone version now is 7.1.2 V10v-EUR-XX
2) I found some reply in https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/help/unlocking-rooting-twrp-magisk-step-step-t3745006 seems telling me that after rooted, I can't reboot the phone, otherwise the TWRP will lose, that means lost root? and I need to install TWRP and Root again every time.
3) after upgrade to android 8.0, can I just follow https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/help/unlocking-rooting-twrp-magisk-step-step-t3745006 #1 to root?
thanks for read & help!!!
Your question is simply a TWRP question.
After installing TWRP custom recovery, you have to then immediately boot to TWRP and enable it. If you boot back to regular OS first, TWRP doesn't stick. That's all that warning means.
Once in TWRP that's when you flash the root method of your choice, Magisk or SuperSu.
See this post for bootloader unlock, TWRP, root. You already have H930 so you're already one step ahead:

I can found the fake unlocked bootloader in your article, sounds great!!
one more question, can I use the download link with https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/development/h930-lg-v30-european-market-h930-t3779076 as Oreo H930 KDZ?

Yes that's the one you use for H930 with that attached LGUP to upgrade to Oreo.
Hello all,
I have a Verizon LG V30 that I converted to a US998 LG V30 using the Frankenstein method. Today, I clicked the Uninstall option in Magisk Manager and the device uninstalled it and rebooted. Upon rebooting, I was thrown into Fastboot mode with no way to get out (No Recovery, nothing.) I tried resetting through Fastboot to no avail. It still connects with Fastboot but nothing else. I can flash firmware with the patched LGUP but no file I have tried has worked. Is there anyway I can flash my V30 back to Stock VS996? Thank you.

Why isn't there a way to get into Recovery? Use the same fastboot commands you got into recovery the first time you installed TWRP. You can even use those commands to boot to TWRP on your phone even when TWRP is not installed on your phone, via "temp" TWRP.
Since you uninstalled root, you can't use the Reboot Recovery app anymore -- as that requires root access -- but you can still use the fastboot flash commands.

Yes, go into Download mode manually and use dev patched LGUP to flash VS996 Oreo KDZ with DL Partition method. Flash all partitions. Not sure why you are doing that however. You decided you don't want to own your phone anymore?
People who want to KEEP root and TWRP and go back to VS998 would use DL Partition method -- but UNtick the partition recovery partitions. Then you would still have VS996 but with TWRP. You would no longer have fastboot flash commands, but you would still have TWRP custom recovery. Then you just flash Magisk root. So you would have VS998 with TWRP and root.
And at that point you could even use the reboot recovery app with root to always easily get to TWRP.

Thank you very much. I am booting up my ADB and Fastboot to flash TWRP, as I still at least have an unlocked boot loader. I’ll download a Oreo KDZ for the Verizon Variant if that doesn’t work out. Do you have any sources for one on the forums? Thank you!
EDIT: Once I get into recovery, should I flash a stock ROM? There are a few on the ROMs section of the forums but I do not non which one to download.

1) Do your want to keep TWRP and root and just flash back to VS996 (while keeping TWRP and root)?
2) Or do you want to just keep TWRP but you don't want root right now?
If #1, once in TWRP, reflash Magisk.
Then reboot, and go into manual download mode BEFORE opening the patched LGUP. Then Frankenstein back to VS996 with DL PARTITION method, but untick (uncheck) the recovery partitions. Then you'll be back to VS996, but still have TWRP and be rooted.

Don't mind my other comment, I fixed what was going on there for the most part. I have tried 2 different firmware files and both of them will not boot. The Official LG Boot image (flashable with TWRP) flashed with no errors, but i just booted into download mode again. I also flashed LineageOS and the same thing happened. I tried the Refurbish and Upgrade option through LGUP and both stopped at 19% with error 0x2000. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you.

Same thing happened to mine I found no fix other then to lie to both Sprint and LG till LG agreed to take it in and fix it...
Anyone have any solution for the flash to work with magisk?
If i uninstall and install SU my flash will work?
Replace the kernel with the MK2000, flashing it with TWRP after Magisk, and the flash will be back.

There is an Oreo mk2000 kernel? I used it for nougat, I'll give it a look.

It's still a beta version, but on my phone is working perfectly.
You can find it here, in the same thread of the Nougat version: h850 mk2000 kernel
I installed the kernel and after magisk again but the flash light is not working again.
I get the same error.
I have to wipe everything again?
Never mind i just flashed mk again without flashing magisk again and its working.

I get the same problem.
After flashing TWRP I do this:
don't wipe Data, but "format" data (you have to type "yes" to delete encryption)
intall Magisk-v17.1.zip
install xposed-v90-sdk26-arm64-beta3 (optional)
install driver Adreno 530 rev21 non treble (optional)
install as last zip: KERNEL MK2000 v1.0 Beta5 (for OREO)
reboot system
now flashlight works fine.
So installing "no-verity-opt-encrypt" (DM-verify) is not necessary.
P.S.
I was on Fulmics 5.5 (stock 7.x) with unlocked bootloader, the correct twrp flashing for me was this:
with LGUP
flash kdz android 7.x (flag on refurbish) (I tried upgrading directly to 8.x, but the G5 was gone in bootloop)
flash kdz android 8.x (flag on upgrade)
(the bootloader still remain unlocked, so you have not flash unlock partition with unlock.bin file)
Phase 2
Boot, skip all settings, Enable Developer, enable Debug USB and accept request permissions etc...
open ADB and type
reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
don't reboot!
remove cable, remove battery, reinsert battery
power on in recovery mode (correctly, or you have to return at Phase 2)
double yes for reset factory (to enter in recovery)
you should enter in TWRP recovery
Is there any way to fix the "flashlight" bug with the stock kernel, still with the stock recovery
and rooting with Magisk by patching the boot image beforehand and flashing it in fastboot ?
I tried using the mk2000 kernel, but no img image is provided for this, only a zip,
but I don't want to root by using TWRP and flashing zips.
Why, I want systemless root, in case OTA updates will appear.
Thank you.
Even though I'd really suggest you to install TWRP permanently (if you accidentally enter in the stock recovery, the whole internal memory gets erased permanently), you may try to install Magisk from TWRP and then flash again the stock recovery.img using fastboot.
By the way, the Magisk zip is systemless: it doesn't flash executables on the system partition; it's just packed as a zip file for convenience to be easily read by TWRP.
On the other hand, if you want both original kernel and Magisk with a working flashlight, you can't. Flashlight with Magisk only works with MK2000 kernel at the moment.
It's new version mk2000 kernel v2.0 stable version from 04 January 2019, for Oreo try it. I want to unlock BL and make root, pls tell us it is flash work ? Sorry for my English.

I din't try the latest version, but I'm currently using mk2000 with unlocked bootloader and Magisk, and everything (both root and flash) is ok.
Edit: I now have the latest version of mk2000, and I can confirm everything is ok.
My flashlight and camera flashlight are not working too. I have to back read just in case I am not the only one with the same problem. I see there is a lo of suggestion and I tried it and it worked like a charm. I used H850_v1.0-mk2000 to make it work.

Stock US996 twrpable zip firmware for the lg v20 is here. My phone is already rooted with magisk, bootloader unlocked, and has twrp installed.
I formatted my phone using twrp, and rebooted into recovery mode. I then flashed the US99610P firmware (as it is the most up to date in the list at the time). As soon as I reboot into the system, the "phone is corrupt and unable to boot" warning pops up and it's now in an endless bootloop.
I have flashed VS996 12A firmware with lgup patched to get the phone back to a working state.
TLDR: bootlooping lg v20 in part due to the US996 firmware. How do I flash US unlocked stock firmware on this device through twrp?
Flash it with partition DL using patched lg up. You can't just crossflash the vs995 to us996 with twrp due to the different partition layout. And this is not the correct section to post this in.

I did. Flashing using lgup patched works fine when on stock firmware. The issue is when I'm rooted and have twrp installed.
This happened as well when flashing custom roms as well.
