So right now I'm on 10B, rooted with xPosed installed. However, I saw that the 12A update included touch improvements, and my touchscreen has been giving me issues for a while now.
Is there anywhere I could find a guide on how to update to 12A from 10B and keep root and xPosed? Or would anyone be willing to create a guide? Thanks!!
From my understanding, that is the magic question. Updating to 12a w/o the bootloader. If 12a root image flashed without 12a OTA first, result is a image mismatch. No 12a KDZ file yet.
Thats what you would need from 10b.
Back in the holding pattern.
Wait a little longer my friend. There's supposed to be a bootloader unlock coming for users on 10b still.

:highfive::fingers-crossed: If there is, that would be absolutely fantastic.. I guess I'll hold out a bit longer haha. Are there any "fixes" for the touchscreen issues right now then?
I'd like to see someone rooted on 12a post their build.prop. There were some edits before that helped the touchscreen. Maybe diffing the latest build.prop changes might help the rest of us out.

Yes there is indeed a new bootloader unlock coming out for users on 10b. It would be in your best interest to hold out until it's released and then unlock your bootloader and just flash a custom ROM when they become available.

Is there at least a vague eta on that bootloader unlock?
No eta don't ask for ETA

Yeah, I realize that's pretty much one of the rules, but I'd think that if they're saying there is definitely a bootloader unlock coming soon, I'd want to know where they got that from, right?

Darn it, I had updated to 11A when root was available for it

You can use touch screen booster and it will help to decrease touch issues drastically...
Untill we get the bootloader unlocked this is really helpful. [emoji12]

Hi everyone
I bought a verizon premaid Luge about 2 weeks ago, and thanks to this forum i was able to #1 root the device using one of the tutorials, and #2 unlock de carrier, using another tutorial from this forum.
The only thing im left to do, which i can´t yet, is to unlock the bootloader.
why? well because i want to install a lollipop rom, the kitkat rom from motorola has flaws when it comes to sound issues, the speaker makes a high pitch noise constantly, like if there was an electricity discharge for half a second when there is 1 sound after the phone has been silent for a while, i searched for this issue and is related to kitkat, jellybean did not have this problem and they are not fixing it.
this is the phone i got, i want to know what are my alternatives to unlock the bootloader?
Is sigmabox pack2 the only way to have the bootloader unlocked? or nothing works yet?

1. This has been asked many times.
2. You didn't post any of the system info.
3. You don't need to start a new thread, there are a dozen threads just like this, that have been active in the last month.

Even if that works, you need to find someone who has one, or buy one for about a $100.

Should probably know what you're doing before you do it..
Hello may be i can help..
First tell me are u familliar with recoveries,flashing,boot etc
Do u knw how to get to recovery mode in lg g4?
The most simple way to root ANY DEVICE is to use vroot.apk. it can root almost evrery device. Downliad it fro google not from Playstore.try itand tell me if it works.or if not works u can try iroot version of v root for computer windows.

Don't **** with your device if you have no experience with root. Your version H818, as far as I am aware; has not been unlocked or rooted yet.

Well it's not, as the only device that can have the bootloader unlocked is the H815 EU unlocked variant. The is no way to unlock bootloader and fit any other variant yet.
It is the EU VERSION

H815 version? Your OP doesn't state that it's the 815 variant a difernet model number. But there is a post in sickies to resolver these issues, check there.
Im sorry it was a typo.
Hi folks,
Brand new D851 here! I want to get it fully updated to 20G before going ROM happy. I'm aware of the 20G flashable ZIP (here) but figured I'd just get it to download. The phone (new, from Amazon, unlocked) came with kitkat. I skipped the setup process and have no SIM in it; once I connected it to wireless it promptly downloaded and installed 20E. But there it sits. It doesn't seem to understand 20G should be waiting. Repeated checks for updates don't goose it along.
Is there some trick to this?
I will probably quickly exit stock, and then set up maybe Blisspop or something similar for 5.1.1, configuring for AT&T (I'm on ATT and bought the D851 due to unlocked bootloader).
I'm not shy flashing the zip I referenced above, just figured it might be better to update via the normal route if possible.
Thanks in advance!
LG Mobile Support Tool
Go here: http://www.lg.com/us/support/product-help/CT10000027-1412198655480-software-updates
Select the "Software Update LG Mobile" tab on the right.
Make sure you have the proper USB drivers installed.
The page states that the latest is 20E but I just flashed to do a trade-in and it was 20G.
Thanks. I will try it tonight.

Thanks again @mitbit2k3 . I went to the link you suggested and got the download tool; it updated my phone successfully after I installed the driver. There was a bit of foolishness about telling the device to do PC software but eventually got it connected. All is well. Upgrade only took ~10-15 minutes to download and install once started.

I think I just got the OTA notification for 20G. Were you still able to root and everything afterwards?

Has anyone been successful in flashing the "Star Kissed" Kernel with Heimdall? I have not seen anyone from the AT&T side comment on this Kernels performance so I am guessing no one has. My thoughts were if this Kernel was flashed successfully then Kingroot was applied would we still get the "Kernel is not seandroid" error?
I am just a guy who likes reading and clicking. I do not know enough about this stuff to fully understand why this would not be a viable solution. Can anyone with some developing experience explain if this is possible or not?

All I can say is the N910A model has a locked bootloader... You can not flash a custom kernel!

I totally understand that and thanks for the reply. I noticed on @twistedumbrella post #5 on the Star Kissed kernel thread, mentioned that a bootloader unlock was not needed to "inject" this Kernel?

From what I see on post #5 he wasn't talking about think to do with "inject" the kernel on a locked bootloader.
Also the OP was using a N910T model, which is the T-Mobile model of the Note 4 and has an unlocked bootloader.
Anyone with N910A is locked and can not flash any kernel! even if we ever got just "root" we still wouldn't be able to flash a custom kernel. Look at the N900A (also known as AT&T Note 3) they have root. But they still have a locked bootloader... Verizon model was locked and they got lucky with a bootloader unlock... N910V model.

Gotcha. I guess he was saying that if root was ever achieved his kernel could still be flashed without a bootloader unlock.

Only way I could see this being used is if we had full root an than we could use flashfire and run a fully rooted rom with his kernel.

Unfortunately no. Hidden menu only has test and reset menu items with zvd same as zvc.
Any with ebay unlock able to get LTE speeds with zvd now?

I'm not sure, but i asked an ebay unlocker about ZVD and he said it's currently un-unlockable.
so be very careful.
I'd suggest turning off auto updates in developer options (setting>about phone>tap build number like 7 times)
I also called sprint about jacking up my phone. They will not unlock (even if it was previously unlocked domestic and international) if the phone was on their network less than 50 days. If the phone was on their network longer... then maybe... but no guarantees. They were extremely unhelpful. :silly:
Please elementdgp did you also unlock your phone using remote unlock from EBay.
Thats why I tell people dont update stick with the lowest possible and you normally dont have the issues.....
Are the updates more important that risking the unlockablility of your device? Thats the Question to be asked....

I tested this update (statistics and personally).
This update returns the excellent work of GPS satellites (I did not even see it at all) and DO NOT remove the unlock.
It can be put on the ZVC with unlock. It can not be put on the ZVC without an unlock or VZB. If you unlock the remotely (Octoplus) - the update is safe! I checked the axiom on 8 people + myself.
So did you unlock using remote unlock from EBay. And when you updated it didn't lock

Yes. ZVD not remove ZVC unlock (octoplus), but if unlock was not installed on early firmware (ZVB, ZVS), it will not let you install a new unlock. Octoplus not support ZVD native.
Update with unlocking ZVC - approve
Update with ZVC without remote unlock or ZVB - you can not !
This is minor update - It does not overwrite the area where the unlock is stored. But this update animates GPS satellites, if you have problems with them and improves autofocus cameras on the stock camera.
Thanks a lot
But has anyone else confirmed it
I just updated it and it didn't lock my phone
