Probably need to rename it as MOFD_SDUPDATE and put it on your SD card, then boot into recovery.

Don`t know about safe method but:
Install ASUS FlashTool on PC from here (https://yadi.sk/d/NQCiY--IsQjBr) also drivers if necessary
I used this one it doesn`t give serial number error: AsusFlashToolInstaller1.0.0.17.exe
Get RAW LP FW

(ZE550ML) https://yadi.sk/d/XAUyR8eRtuKdA
Boot into fastboot and flash raw
BACKUP YOUR DATA!!! (just in case)

Did you then try the "apply update from SD card" option that is available in the M stock recovery menu?

I think I would stay on MM for a while.
I updated just by pushing full zip into root of internal storage and wait for the FOTA Service to detect it and update.

I did this last night, Just put the downgrade file on the internal storage and same as the MM update when it says there's an update do it...
But and this is a big BUT (lol) it factory resets your phone, So you lose everything so back up. Oh it also relocks the bootloader.

You mean that internal storage is also wiped?
And are you sure that downgrading will re-lock bootloader?

Yes it wiped my phone clean, Relocked the bootloader (had to unlock it again). Was easy to fix as I had everything here anyway so just unlocked again, rooted again after I went through the setup again.

I think ASUS provided the downgrading ROM at their official website. Use MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip method, or flash via ADB. Both way works on stock bootloader and recovery.
Idk about TWRP recovery method

so i followed what you did. i placed downgrade file on my internal sd, reboot, and then when thru the downgrade process. when it rebooted,i didnt set it up and i went straight to updating to mm using the same process ofplacing the file on internal memory. i just reinstalled all the apps after and.so far so good. proximity sensor seems to work well for me and my concern regarding the led notification seemed to have been resolved.
thanks mate!

I also paste the lollipop firmware on my phone's internal storage by creating a new folder but it doesn't show any notifications

Well spotted. I just installed the beta version of B11 yesterday. Oh well, just installing this one as we speak. The download is slightly bigger so must be different.

I first had the beta version of B111 and now this one but I think it's the same because unwrapped the UPDATE.APP has the same size as the one from the beta version also there where no apps updated after the install progress.

Are you advising me that this update does format the data partition automatically? The previous update (107) left all my data intact, I was hoping this update would too.
Is it worth the hassle when coming from 07? And why do they keep these out of the phones ota? Is the ota just a ******* of ****** that actually does nothing? Galaxy S has had CM otas for a while - and they dont even have the backing of a multinational company.
Nice phone but the software is quirky, is the wifi-idle no data issue ok in the 111? Screen off and the phone turns wifi off and do not start mobile data. The phone is without data till the next time you turn the screen on or some app wakes it locally. Have had Whatsup messages appearing hours late and took a while to figure out why it was happening.
In answer to my question regarding the data being formatted, I have just completed the upgrade from 107 to 111 using the copy to SD card and run the system updater app method and this appears to have left all my apps and information intact and working as they all were before the update. Phew!
All the problems I had with B107 such as the Wi-Fi problem are gone with this update. If you put the dload folder with UPDATE.APP in it, in the root of the SD-card and update trough the system settings>about phone>update>local update, method you're data will be fine, at least my data was fine after the update to B111.

Turn phone off, hold vol+ and vol- and power...
From B111 (1st step only)
GUYS i think this update is totally the same as the beta B111 update! exact same file size! so i think for those who already updated using the beta B111 can probably just skip this update to save some time

That's the force update method, then you will erase all you're data/files.
For the next update you could use the normal update method (put the dload folder with UPDATE.APP in it, in the root of the SD-card and update trough the system settings>about phone>update>local update) then you're data/files will be fine.

Make sure of several things:
1. Put the UPDATE.APP in a dload folder on your sd card.
2. Make sure the sd card is formatted as fat32.
3. Make sure that no USB is plugged in while you try to update.
4. Make sure that you have more than 50% battery.

I have a LG G Pad V50020d. Rooting is not an issue but the ability to flash TWRP is just not working for me. I have tried every guide possible. I have amended the runme file and things seem to go well but when I boot into recovery I get the fallen android and this message at the bottom of the screen;
"E:missing bitmap stage_empty
(Code -1)
E:missing bitmap stage_fill
(Code -1)"
Don't suppose anyone can help me? I just want CM11 on it.

I think all you will need to do is find the kdz file and put the tablet in download mode (holding both volume keys while the tablet is turned off and plug it into the PC) and use LG Flash Tool.

I have just downloaded the v50010a 4.2.2 kdz file so I am going to give it a go now. Give me 30 minutes and I will give you an update.
That just put me in a boot loop so now going back to v50020b 4.4.2.
I have never known such an issue with installing TWRP. I have managed it with most Samsung phones, the majority of the Nexus line of phones and tablets, my LG G2 and I just wanted to do it to the tablet.
Unfortunately, spending as much time as I have on this has left me frustrated and tired.

LG upgrade tool sucks

had to manually install drivers, did not work through tool. and when I clicked upgrade it said I was up to date on 4.4.2. I got it to work by clicking the drop down in the top right corner and clicking upgrade recovery.
Did you happen to click "Options" on the top right then upgrade recovery?

Make sure you don't take an OTA or upgrade to LP via the support tool w/ TWRP installed (or any third party recovery for that matter).

Use KDZ tool.
See the sticky.
Honestly if you have twrp just upgrade to Lollipop via Autoprime's zip directly from twrp. They are stock roms directly from Tmobile so Wifi calling and VoLTE is included. Also the it will be rooted too. Unless you don't want twrp or root you can use the KDZ tool.

Yeah that would clean wipe it, if you wipe from TWRP. My steps is to do the factory wipe from Twrp then go to advance wipe and check mark everything in there besides the external sd card. Do the wipe 2 times or more just to make sure and since doesn't hurt to do so. Make sure the zip files for Lollipop are on the external sd card and not internal since you want a clean wipe.

Root

Hi all,
I will receive my new 10 tomorrow. Is there a guide so I can root it right away? Not sure but I assume it will be a wwe version (401?)
I should unlock it via htcdev and what's next?
Thanks!

As usual .. after unlock, install TWRP and install SuperSU.zip
You need to read and understand this first : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/development/psa-htc-policy-unlocking-bootloader-t3365986
and here is the TWRP : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/development/recovery-twrp-touch-recovery-t3358139
Thanks for the answer. Both links give me an error in the xda app. Know where to find them but just FYI.
So I need to replace the recovery without doubt. Hmm, not sure if I want that reading the things about ota and stock recovery. I'm actually waiting for mike1986 to create a custom rom for the 10 but up until now no news about that.

Prety interested in this one too... Looked around and on some sites it said that you can do it using various apps... I would also like to keep it as stock as possible but rooted, at least at the beginning
Is there any one touch root solution
What versions of SuperSU are people trying and having success with?
Latest versions had issues on my M9 so had an older version working great!

Nope, and it as much as says so a few posts above yours.
I unlocked my device via htcdev, flashed trwp latest version and sideloaded the last beta version of supersu (2.71). These steps did the trick although some apps that require root (fstrim for example) claim I need to root the device. Rootchecker on the other hand claim my device is rooted. Main reason for me to unlock was adaway to get an almost ad free device.

Was your device encrypted? Thought all devices are and you loose all userdata when you install TWRP. or even when you Unlock via htcDev?

It will wipe when you unlock but unlike previous years, because it is encrypted it will forget its access when you s-off as well.
The update is now available in my region but since I unlocked and rooted, how do I apply this? I assume nothing will get lost? Is there anybody with the ota file so I can at least restore stock recovery?

How could I backup stock recovery? Backing up the rest is done with twrp but stock recovery wasn't possible of course. What I understood was the stock recovery could be pulled from RUU and since I'm on the wwe 401 version I was not afraid I couldn't find that. Only did not expect an ota that quick

Typical verizon removed the "Enable OEM unlock" option from the developer settings. Hopefully someone will figure out temproot quickly.

in my opinion I would not even bother with the OTA now that your unlocked and rooted. you will start seeing custom stuff soon enough. I'm still waiting for any info on mine even being shipped out.
What is the correct root procedure to keep signal?
I've tried:
1 unlock bootloader via htcdev.
2 flash TWRP.
3 flash SuperSU
4 run SunShine
5 re-enable data encryption via settings > storage
It then reboots and I see HTC logo (thought it was encrypting without giving any indication, so I left it overnight) and it was stuck in this state. In the morning I force rebooted and was still unencrypted and without signal, so I attempted step 5 with same result...

That's always good
I've attempted to root it again and now it works, it's rooted, with s-off, unlocked, and encrypted and with signal working.
Not sure why you lose root after format data, is that normal?
