There's a DOZEN trouble shooting tips list in the WTF Instructions. On that page, scroll down to Section 7.
Tell us which ones you have done? I know you haven't done all of them. When you read them you will understand how I know.

One of the tips is to install another version of ADB.
One of the tips is to try another USB cable.
One of the tips is to try another USB port..
One of the tips is to try another computer.
That last one seems to work for most people as a last resort.
Since you won't read them in the Instructions, here are all the tips:
7: TROUBLE SHOOTING
MOST people have no problems. If you do, look through this list.
1) You can't flash the new-unlock.bin code.
Look at your current "About Phone". You want to confirm you're on Oreo with pre-July 2018 security patch firmware.
For any North American variant you Frankensteined, make sure you are on US998 Oreo pre-July 2018 firmware.
2) If you can't flash the new_unlock.bin code or you can't flash TWRP.
* Look in your ADB folder on your PC and confirm all known Windows file extensions enabled.
* Confirm all Windows hidden files and folders are visible.
If that doesn't help, try this:
3) Confirm USB debugging is on in Developer Options, and your PC has authorization for your phone.
4) Install another version of ADB. Install as close to the root of your hard drive as possible. X:\ADB where X is your hard drive.
5) Re-install LG mobile drivers.
6) Try another USB cable.
7) Installing this Windows driver found attached to this post. (Thanks @gazzacbr and @FZZF.)
8) Install Google USB driver. (Thanks @s0lidsneak.)
9) Try another USB port on your computer.
10) Reboot the computer.
11) Try another computer. (THIS seems to always solve the problem. Kudos if you find an an old Win7 PC.)
12) Master Reset (full reset of phone using hardware buttons). Phone will be reset anyway after bootloader unlock. Doing it prior may fix something preventing the command from working.

You are not doing it right. You aren't even following the troubleshooting tips.
I know you haven't tried other computers.
You said you don't even know where your ADB folder is?
So you aren't doing it right. It DOES work, but your have to follow instructions.
What variant do you have, what firmware are you even on?

OK, you finally finished Section 5, unlocking bootloader. See, it does work.
Now you're on Section 6, installing TWRP and rooting. Make sure you're reading it on a web browser, not something like XDA app. The app truncates entire paragraphs of explanation.
Read the section thoroughly, follow the directions, read the troubleshooting tips again. Everyone else can do it, so there is something you are missing or doing differently than you should. Or something you're not doing, that you should.
What kind of error message are you getting?

The max download size error is USB cable/USB port/ADB not communicating well.
Someone with a VERY similar screen name to yours had the exact same issue when trying to unlock bootloader.

Hello I know this post is really old but i was trying to complete this today because i just got my old v30 out of storage. It started off as a h931 carrier locked from atnt. Tried rooting it downgrading google plus to do some spoofing on pokemon go. Well that didnt go to well since the phone has a locked bootloader and wont allow majisk.
So i saw this and said "Finally someone came out with something for an LG phone". Well anyways, I followed the post all the way down to looking at your screenshots to try and get the exact version (10d to 20a). And still my fastboot commands are locked. It gets stuck right after the i attempt to flash the new_unlock.bin, just says "Target didn't report max-download-size. Sending 'unlock' (1kb)......." I see tons of other people posting how they got theirs to work. But mine won't for some reason. Yes I am on US98820a and its not bootlooping at all, just no fastboot commands.
Thank you for your time and I love how at least someone gave LG some attention. Even if it was with a Huawei unlock code :laugh:

Well, you can also get the same error when trying to install TWRP. It's the SAME communication, where you are trying to install flash something via fastboot flash commands.
Something about your cable/port/ADB installation is not agreeing with your phone. Or missing drivers. You got the bootloader unlocked, now you just need to get TWRP installed -- then you will never need ADB/fastboot again.
This guy had problems with flashing TWRP:

You don't need fastboot mode for Master Reset.
Most V30 don't even have fastboot capability.

I'm confused where you're at.
But you either need another cable, another ADB version or another USB port.
This guy, today, used an older ADB:
Tinkerer_ said:
"adb" command returns "Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.32", "Revision eac51f2bb6a8-android".
The Android SDK Tools entry in WinXP "Add or Remove Programs" is 1.16 (Google). Not sure that matters.
Might be a good idea to test it with Windows later than XP before recommending it. (I have not.)

looks like I may have to wait a long time if I am lucky! otherwise parts for sale! new phone just two weeks old from ebay India about $500 wasted.
You need to read all over here, download the dump and try flashing things with fastboot (in your case, just recovery), if you find a solution, you will help others too.

i got past this error, you need to get a few files for the photon, one is an sbf (511 mb), another is the stock rom 2.3.5 which you will install through bootstrap, and third when you finally boot into the rom itself, another sbf through rsd and you're good to go. check the "revive the photon from grave" thread, it is all there

Here is a little script I put together to fastboot L9s with ability to flash/restore ics xloader and uboot (p760, p765, p768, p769) jb (p760)
*I've only tested it on Win 7, but it should work on Vista , not sure about XP and 8
Very useful post about installing the drivers
*Some phones may need a different timing, 4 seconds won't work, worth to try between 0 to 4s and see what works best
Original thread about fastboot

It's based on wpark - [DEV][Bootloader] u-boot / omap4boot for P920/P720/P940 and its variant
update: file updated, mylk Thanks for catching the mistake!

Thanks, I'll try this out once I'm home, maybe my phone will finally let me fastboot. Whenever I've tried before, it just normally reboots, doesn't switch to fastboot mode.

#1 is just a general fastboot, you can put whatever (boot.img, recovery.img, etc) you want to flash via fastboot in "yours" folder - type: fastboot devices and you'll see if your phone is recognized
and the rest is mainly for recovery, ics xloaders and uboots work nicely with offline flashing method also several people mistakenly soft bricked their phones with omap4boot by flashing prada files which can't happen with this tool
For me general fastboot works on ArchLinux. But I only put recovery with it...

of course if you have functional rom and unlocked bootloader you don't need it
Hi there, its been a while since I tried fastboot again, but I have good news. Fastboot worked on my P768 using this method, I selected option 1. Then I was able to send recovery to my phone and then root the phone using a flashable SuperSU zip! 'adb reboot recovery' takes me straight into CWM!
I have some questions though.
Is fastboot permanently on the phone like it is on the P760 now? or do I have to use this program each time to send fastboot commands?
Does this mean that I could potentially flash a custom rom to my phone now? I know all the custom roms out there are not for the P768, so I will get camera problems. But is this the missing piece of the puzzle for custom rom development/testing?
Thank you lelus for this great tool!

Fastboot is definitely there but something doesn't get passed along during adb reboot bootloader or oem-unlock and phone just reboots instead of booting to fastboot.

I'm pretty sure* you can use Android Kitchen to replace these files in latest Cyanogenmod zip with ones from p768 jb and have camera working.

Thanks. When I find the time. I'm going to make a guide for unlocking the boot loader, pushing CWM with fastboot and rooting.
I'm not confident in building CM, but I did see another user who was willing to try but was stuck with a locked boot loader. Hopefully together we can get the ball rolling for P768 development.

Stuck in bootloop, nothing seems to be working

So, the other night my Rezound slipped off a shelf and into the toilet. I pulled it out immediately, popped open the case and used a blow dryer on it, then stuck it in a bag of rice. The next day I stuck the battery in and it seemed to be working alright. Then I went to respond to a snapchat and found that the camera was not working. I thought maybe a simple restart might help, but the phone never restarted. I stuck it back in the bag of rice, thinking maybe their was still some moisture that could be pulled out. Today, after roughly 48 hours in the rice, I put the battery in, and it goes into the bootloop.
I pulled the SIM, tried going into recovery, factory reset, wipe cache, etc. Everything I can find on any forum does not work. I found a couple different PH89IMG.zip files, but after the bootloader analyzes them, it says that it can't do anything because they're older versions that what is on the device, which is "4.05.605.14 710RD" according to my wife's phone. I also downloaded the RUU, but the device has to be powered on for that to work, and it won't go past the white screen with green htc logo.
I would really love to resolve this without doing a factory reset, because there are a few things saved on the device itself that I can't really replace. Does anybody have any ideas for anything else I could try? Including maybe having the PH89IMG.zip file for the stock version of Android...
Is there a way that I could extract the PH89IMG.zip file from my wife's rezound, or utilize her phone in any way to repair my own?

You can edit the version.txt in the PH98IMG.zip to the same version as your wife's, that would get you around the mainver errors. Something tells me you did too much water damage and it's just dead though.

Thanks. I'll give that a shot. It was working the next day, but then stopped after a restart. And it was only in the water for maybe 2 seconds, max. My wife's phone fell in a pool before, and got pulled out about a minute later, then worked after about 48 hours in rice.

So editing the version listed in the .txt file made it so it didn't hang up on loading the file, but then it just refreshed the main bootloader screen. When I select fastboot, or go to restart the phone, it's still hung up in the bootloop :crying:

Can you get to recovery? I see you have no recovery. You can try to fastboot a recovery.img, I am sorry but sounds like you screwed up your system, you will be lucky if it accepts a recovery. I deal with lots of broken phones in the business I am in and sorry to say once they are water damaged they 90 percent of the time they end up useless. If you need help with fastboot I will help.

You can follow the instructions at htcdev.com if you haven't yet unlocked your bootloader. After following the instructions they provide for you, you can download http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1902381 and write it to the recovery partition via fastboot command. To finally flash it, make sure you're in the bootloader and you see "FASTBOOT USB". Hold the shift key and right-click, and click "Open command window here". Now place TWRP in the folder used to push the Unlock_code.bin (Contains fastboot.exe and is usually located at C:\Android or C\:fastboot) and type "fastboot flash recovery (name of recovery file).img. If you want, I can elaborate further.

This can be done on a Mac or Linux box as well, ADB is available for both, just substitute the appropriate filenames or commands for each OS.

So I finally got around to doing this, after buying a replacement phone off a guy on Craigslist, but I would still like to try and get this phone back up and running... I downloaded all the files and installed adb, etc. When I try to run the command, "fastboot flash recovery TWRP_2.6.3.0_Vigor_PH98IMG.zip" I get the following in the terminal:
sending 'recovery' (6323 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.464s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: image error! (BootMagic check fail))
finished. total time: 1.780s
Any other ideas??

I think its irrelevant at this point... Personally, I would use EclipticRez v9 or Tachyon as they are both rock solid ROMs. EclipticRez includes an Aroma installer script, so it might be a little easier (select S-ON and Lunar kernel).

I actually found this thread earlier - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2632629 and followed the instructions, it was giving me some trouble around step 10 and kept going back into the bootloop. Then I tried it for probably the 5th time and it finally worked!! So the phone is back to full function now. I've been out of the house for a few hours, but it worked before your last reply literally right before I walked out the door.

The [semi] good news is that I found one on Craigslist (same phone because I really like it) for just $60 a couple days after I got fed up with using the OG Incredible. And the guy had 2 extra batteries, a case, and ghost armor on the screen as well. So now I have the original Rezound and the spare.

LG G Watch stuck on fastboot menu

Hi there guys,
I'm new to the forum so apologies if this has been posted in the wrong place.
So I was directed to this forum to attempt to solve a different problem but in my hast, I have caused an even bigger problem!
So initially I was having problems with the new Android Wear update with regards to rooting, so I wanted to find a way to roll the software back or restore the device to stock.
I came across this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-watch/development/tool-lg-g-watch-return-to-stock-t3158349 and attempt to do as advised, but half way through the process, the program froze. I then tried to reset the watch from the button at the back, but the watch is now stuck on the fastboot menu. I used ADB to see if I could still connect to the device but no devices can be found.
I have checked the device manager and can see the device as "Android Bootloader Interface" but can't seem to get it past the fastboot menu.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
just do it again, as long you can get fastboot, you are safe.

The problem is, the program requires a connection via ADB, but ADB can no longer see the device. So when I try to run it again, nothing happens :/

F the program it is outdated as **** get adb minimal here and the last 5.1.1 images here
Extract to the same folder you put adb minimal and open a terminal here.
do these commands:
Code:
fastboot flash boot nameofboot.img
fastboot flash system nameofsystem.img
(optional) fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot format/erase data
fastboot format/erase cache
Oh yeah btw if the only problem you had was with rooting just use my guide here and system images from here instead

Looks like it is either that adb minimal is messed up (I use the full 1gb sdk) or there is a driver problem or you can try running cmd as administrator instead

I did try adb from the SDK that you've mentioned and have had the same results.
I also run in Administrator every time.
What I have just noticed with regards to the drivers is the change in the name of the device in device manager. Previously it showed as "Android Composite ADB Interface" but now it is showing as "Android Bootloader Interface".
I believe that might just be because the watch is stuck on the bootloader menu so that is how it is displayed, but it could be the cause.

Your pc seems to be having trouble writing anything to the watch so if it is not the sdk then it must be your driver or bootloader

Just checked the tool and it shouldn't do any harm at all to your watch unless you tried the bootloader lock so it must be your drivers

Hi there,
I've just tried to update the drivers but they seem to be up to date.
Yeah, the only reason I thought the program had done some damage is because it froze which resulted in getting stuck on the fastboot menu, but you've more knowledge so I guess that's not the issue.
I'm not entirely sure what else can be done here. I think I might have to just get another watch and stop the update as that is when all the problems occurred.
If you can think of anything else to try, I would be willing to give it a go but don't worry yourself too much if you're out of ideas.
I really appreciate your help up to this point anyways

The first attempting of flashing anything to this device I believe was when using the Return to Stock tool.
I choose the "Install ROM" option which I can see from the script attempts to flash.
So I guess it's never been successful on this device.

This whole problem started due to the fact that I couldn't see the device using ADB, so I tried to look for a method to solve that which then caused the problem I'm having now.
The only variable I can put it down to is an update that was pushed to the watch as prior to that, I had no problems at all.

I don't get it though!! I tried to reinstall them before and nothing changed!
It's only when I completely deleted them and reinstalled that it worked.
Honestly dude, thank you so much for your help and patience. My watch is now working and paired with my phone.
I'm waiting for it to sync but hopefully I will be able to run ADB and all will be well again
Thanks you so much again.

Root no longer working after Magisk Manager update

Hello there, I have a rooted LG V30 that I got about a few months ago.
Earlier today I went to open Magisk Manager for the first time since I rooted and it told me I needed to update Magisk Manager.
So I did.
When it relaunched itself, it crashed and continued to crash.
Now I can no longer open the Magisk Manger.
Not only can I not open the Magisk Manager, but it would seem I'm unable to give any apps root privileges as of now.
I've tried reinstalling twrp using ADB but I can't seem to get it to work. It keeps freezing on me during the 3rd recovery question or fastboot can't find my device.
If anyone can tell me what has happened that would be nice.
If you need logs, please let me know how to get them and I will update the post with them.
~ Thanks, bditt.

Hi there, I know this is silly, but would you mind explaining how to use the magisk unistall file?
I get it as a zip and can't seem to run it like an APK.
From what I understand, I need to use TWRP to run it.
Sadly, I can't seem to boot up into TWRP.

Nothing in my post has anything to do with what you just posted. I said to use fastboot flash commands, just like in WTF INSTRUCTIONS.

I will never ever suggest hardware button dance. Nowhere in WTF INSTRUCTIONS do I say to use hardware button dance. The exact opposite.
So read my answer again and do that.

If you've managed to wipe out TWRP using YOUR method, then you need to follow WTF Section 6 to re-install it.
Still, in either instance you'll be using fastboot flash commands to boot TWRP.

See the WTF Section 7 Troubleshooting Tips. I know you've already unlocked your bootloader, but they also address ADB/fastboot flash command issues which you are having. The "too many links" problem is definitely ADB not communicating with your device.
You need to reinstall Google/Windows/LG mobile drivers, try different ADB installation, different USB cable, different port, different computer.
See Section 7 of WTF for more advice.

You're not using some sort of virtual Windows environment, are you?
If not, then try different ports, different cables, different ADB installations, different computer.
Also try lower case f on fastboot. Who knows, it might make a difference.
V30 has a difficult relationship with ADB. If you scroll up, one guy had to try three different USB cables.
Good news is once bootloader unlocked and TWRP installed, you won't need fastboot again.

Don't remember if we covered this...
What happens when you use the commands: fastboot boot TWRP.img ?
That should boot TWRP temporarily on your phone from your PC.
Then in "temporary" TWRP, you choose to boot to recovery in the Boot section of TWRP (this would only work if you still have TWRP installed) OR you can try to do some actions. Perhaps even run the uninstaller for Magisk and re-install Magisk?
_________
Next topic...
Which TWRP are you trying to reinstall? Stable 3.2.3.7 from the WTF thread? or another? Sometimes people get hold of some other older TWRP. Just want to make sure you aren't using anything older than stable 3.2 3.7.
Similarly there is a TWRP beta out right now. I don't normally recommend betas, but you could try to install it, just to see

After trying 5 different computers, 6 cables, a bunch of different ADB's, and so many other things, I was able to get this to work.
Thanks for so much info and help.
Really appreciate it.
To be a little more specific on what happened:
After a bunch of tries on many different computers. I went on my mothers laptop.
Which is on Windows 10 version 1903.
I went and installed all the drivers on the laptop.
Tried a while.
Gave up for the day.
Got on today and kept trying.
First try and I was able to get it working.
Uninstalled and reinstalled magisk and everything.
Root works fine now.
Once again, thanks so much for the help.
I think the laptop restart is what actually fixed it. I realized I forgot to restart the laptop after installing the drivers while I was laying down for sleep last night.
