Stock LG messaging app - LG V35 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi there!
Recently i've crossflashed my V35 from AT&T to NAO USA ULM firmware.
Before flashing the new firmware,my default messaging app was the common stock LG app,but after flash,the default app is Google's messages.
I've downloaded and installed many versions of the stock LG app from apkmirror,but unfortunately non of these are working..when i try to use it as default messaging app,it always crashes and stops.
I tried disabling the Google messages,just in case of conflicting apps,so i can use the other app,but no result.
Ok the Google message app is working flawlessly,but i want to have the old class school app too as an alternative..any idea?

If you're rooted maybe try installing it as a system app? Also grant it the permissions it requires

No i am not rooted..i've granted all permissions it requires but it doesn't work.
Thank you for your reply anyway.

This is not normal and shouldn't happen. Was the stock messaging app missing altogether? What option did you use in LGUP when you cross flashed, whether it was a clean install or you used upgrade option and kept your data? Did you use any batch programs to remove bloatware? No matter what, it still is very strange that a kdz not include LG stock message app. This could also pose a security/malware risk as some out of ordinary behavior by OS could point to it having being altered. Which android version kdz (exact kdz name from lg firmwares download site would be great) is it and where did you download it from? My understanding is that usually kdz file cannot be altered so this is very strange. If you let me know which kdz it was, I can try test it on my spare v35.

Hello and thank you for your reply.
Yes the LG stock messaging app was missing from the begin..when i flashed the kdz and when i completed the whole set up of my device,i started checking if everything was fine.
When i opened the message app,to make my in app settings,i saw it was the Google message app and not the ordinary stock LG app.
For cross flashing i used the Partition DL mode for clean install..i dont know if this caused that problem,but i dont think show,because i've used the same method for my V30 without problem.
I never used any programs to remove bloatware..before cross flash i just disabled some AT&T apps but my device was working perfectly.
The kdz was downloaded from lg-firmwares.com,and the version was the V350ULM20f_00_NAO_US_OP_0218.kdz
It will be very kind of you if you can test it too and give me some feedback.
Thank you in advance!

Sorry, I was mistaken and also, I misread your original post. Since the days of LG V30 I haven't used LG's default Messaging app much as I started using Hangouts to call and text entirely, so I didn't even notice that messaging app had switched sometime in the last year or so. It seems that I have the same 20f version kdz from same website installed on my both V35 and don't have LG's messaging app either. I did look around online and although i didn't find any definite answer, it seems that a while ago probably starting with Android Pie LG messaging app stopped being offered or supported. You probably had Oreo when the phone was on AT&T and it had the LG's default messaging app preinstalled but once you went to Pie ULM kdz it was not bundled with the 20f kdz. By looking at dates on apkmirror website, it does seem that LG last updated it in February 2019. I also installed LG Smartworld and tried getting the messaging app that way but it is not offered there either. The ones offered on apkmirror and elsewhere on web do force close as you mentioned If you do get it working please share details or let's hope someone knows more and have a workaround. Good luck.

Hi!
Before crossflash i was on Pie with security patch level July 2019..this is how i received the phone from the seller..maybe this is the way the ULM kdz is been released without the LG stock messaging.
I dont know if a pre-20f ULM version has it included.
Maybe somebody else can give us this info.
Thank you anyway for your help.

(Solved +/-) [Q] Missing LG Quick apps

The strangest thing happened to my G3. I had it rooted and since i was having a few problems with bloatware from my carrier MEO from Portugal) i decided to install the stock version to see if i could get rid of it. Installed .kdz file for V10a-EUR-XX and did a factor reset.
After that i still have all the bloatware of my carrier but lost root and all the Quick apps from LG (Quick Note, Q remote, and probably a few more and cant remember the name). Now getting it rooted again is easy, but where can i find those apps again since they aren't on Play Store?
Can someone help me out?

Solution i found was to install a new firmware, installed the V10g and the apps where back and the bloatware was gone.

New G3 extra software?

I just got a G3 “D855” and I noticed it got bunch of European software on it for orange, sfr….etc is all of them like that? Check SC below
Thanks
Lucky you, usually one can get only Orange or SFR or none.
Looks like you got double bloatware.. Congrats xD

lol can someone help please can I get a clean stock rom on instead of this? Should I take the phone back?
Root your phone with Purpledrake. Download System App Removal from play store (red icon) and uninstall what you want
Install bumpd twrp and flash AndroidHD or Cloudy

Kind of new to LG "sorry"
Took it to the store earlier they said they have a new clean stock ROM that has nothing on.....Ran an update that took a few min then after wiping I got the same customization stuff back once the data start to sync I'm also now at 4.4.2 instead of 4.4.3 tried OTA sw update it says I have the latest. How can I get 4.4.3 update now?
Thanks!!!!
As far as i know there is no 4.4.3. And for the bloatware, it's firmware independent. That means the bloat is already on your phone in a hidden folder.

LG G3 will not have 4.4.3 update, but by the end of 2014 will receive 5.0 update for D855 international version.
You can either flash a stock .kdz by entering your imei and download it from LG's website here:
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=IMEI HERE
Or flash a custom rom like CloudyG3. Please see the forums for more info on that. Also you can get rid of it by atleast rooting your device and throwing the APK's away, or as I like to do I root my device, install Titanium and batch uninstall all the apps at once and ta-da a clean phone

Weirdly that doesn't work, I had the same issue before and when you flash any kdz as soon as it booted it downloaded a **** load of carrier apps from Germany xD There is a folder that the flash does not erase, if you delete that it gets rid of it for good. (Hopefully)

LGSmartCover and Mirrorlink stopped working after LMY47D update via Lg Bridge on a rooted device which had twrp before updating. I had updated via lg bridge before without any problems.

but no solution it seems. I tried clearing the data of these apps but it didn't work. any body managed to solve it?

@jellysteve
I've solved my mirrorlink problem like this
I have G4 europe H815, brand vodafone
Search in this site kdz vodafon file
There's very few files kdz vodafone, not found for italy
I find in this link posted by a great guy here
Don't know if i can post the link, i have few posts
I can't, anyway, it's the list of kdz files here on the 3d "go back to stock G4"
I've download "portugal vodafone v10b"
It'real 10b, not 10c as some called 10b
Normal flash with lg support tool
And the vodafone 10b was in my g4
Automatically i find OTA update for v10c, 330mb
After the update with ota
The problem mirror link it's solved
So, you have mirror link problem after kdz file v10d?
Or problem after OTA update v10d?
Hope i can help-)
Hi-)
Hello the mirrorlink issue is since OTA update

Hello
The link doesn't work even for me
So mirrorlink on g4 it's not easy to solve
You have international g4, so model H815?
I can't post links for now
I can't say this is the solution for you
But i solved mirrorlink in this way
Go here in the Forum at the section for G4:
G4 General- [Guide] LG G4 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock) KDZ & TOT Method by hyelton
In the middle of the post there's:" KDZ Firmware Files; HERE"
Click HERE
A link will open with some kdz files for G4
Download kdz before v10d
Important, your g4 is brand or no brand?
You have choose the right kdz for your G4
If you have H815 europe, try d.load these kdz file:
Europe General H81510B_00.kdz 1697378KB Jul 06 2015 04:43:29 PM
Or kdz files of your provider, if there's in list
As most of v10b kdz, it's not v10b, but v10c
Good for you 'cause you have v10d
Run lg flash tool 2014
Put kdz file
Select CSE flash
Leave all the others fields as they are
If Cse flash don't work, do normal flash
At the restart, you'll find v10c
And 99% find the Ota update for v10d
Before the Ota update do a hard reset
At the restart, run the Ota update v10d
And see if mirrorlink works
If not, with lg bridge run "fix update error"
Don't do with lg bridge the software update, this will put mirrorlink error
If you have windows 10, maybe Cse flash will not work
No prob, normal flash work back to v10b-c
Hope will work
Sorry for the long post-)
Yes I comfirm my g4 is h815 unbrand.
I found the kdz v10d for France it's my actual version.
I'm ok with the process : lg flash tool.. question if I use normal flash it's necessary to make hard reset or not.
Thanks for your help and time ?

The point is to go in downgrade, v10b or C
If you keep kdz file v10d, i think the problem remains
Your G4 is no brand, so in the link if kdz files try d.load the file kdz i've posted above
With flash tool try normal flash
So you have v10c, then accept the Ota v10d
And see if mirrorlink is solved
If not, do hard reset
Then with Lg bridge do fix errors update
I'm italian but i live in France like You
In this time is almost impossible download flash tool and drivers
Many french sites in these days have put in web around 50 virus
Keep update-)
Hello
I found V10C and I downgrade my g4 with flashtool and I make the update with lg bridge and same problem with mirrorlink
I make a hard reset and same problem I don't understand
I think i wait a new update for solve perhaps the problem.
Evaluate the problem

Well mirrorlink is hard to solve
I've done the steps to solve m.link by my idea
Can't found nothing on web
I don't know if you have patience to make again all the steps
You said you update with Lg bridge after downgrade v10c
Only my opinion, this is the mistake while I'd m.link problem
I said in my previous post:"don't do with lg bridge the software update, this will put mirrorlink error"
If you want to retry
Downgrade v10c, wirh cse flash, then wait the OTA update, not update with lg bridge
The best way is downgrade v10b, like i did for vodafone
But v10b no brand kdz is hard to find
It depends what problems create m.link at your g4
If it's only the message at start, it's not bad problem
In my case, many icons of app on screen disappears
I hope is not your case
Just value the problem, only a message, it's not so bad
As you said, with a new update the problem should be solved
Hi-)
It's my guess, but i think mirrorlink problem will persist for those, who has unlocked bootloader and ignored LG warning that some apps, based on DRM will stop working

I totally agree
I'd unlocked my vodafone bootloader
And so here mirrorlink problem
It's strange that i've solved with downgrade and Ota update, but not @jellysteve case
Mirrorlink is useful if you have a modern car that fit with
If like me, i have a modern car not compatible
The error message m.link can be ignored
I must fix 'cause many icons of apps disappeared at start
But it seems icons problem, happened only for my G4!
Then, with windows 10 i can't do cse flash
So i go back to Win 7, and cse flash works
Hi-)
I started to face this problem, but my H815 fully stock, no unlocking, no rooting. And I wish it to stay that way for now... So the only solution for me is wait for LG to fix that?
Weird thing, I uninstalled quick circle apps, quick remote and quickify, and the problem seems to be gone

no, I'm not rooted, bootloader locked. I started having this issue when I started experimenting with various apps for quick circle case.
Hello, maybe my solution will help for you too. Ive got h815, locked bootloader with low effort root.
Ive installed super manager app with root permissions. In the app go for the system folder, when you trying to enter switch system folder to r/w (the app automaticly asks it). Go to the priv-app search LgCover folder and rename the app inside of it with .bak extension. Reboot the phone.
After that repeat the process but you should remove .bak from the end of the app's name (back to the original) and reboot again. Mine started to work without any issues. I guess that will work with the mirrorlink app. Location of the app: system/app/MirrorLinkServer folder. You should do the same thing with it
Good luck

Help, I rooted my phone and I get a warning everytime i open it

Hello
So after foolishly updating to Marshmellow and discovering that all my apps no longer update in the background, i flashed my device to the LG G4 V10D-226-01 software version, the 10D Europe Open from the LG g4 "Go back to stock rom" thread.
Problem is, everytime i open my phone i get "Warning: Current version is not available for user. Cant find matched cust for Nt-code mcc/mnc[22601],subset[ff]. I have looked both on google and here and everything i found was for the G3 model and it involved using a "custom restore" image. but no explanation on how to use it, its not a KDZ so i cant flash it.
I'm pretty new to all this and everything i wanted was to go back to my Lollipop variant after seeing how Marshmellow behaved on my phone. (not auto updating my background apps).
I appreciate any help you guys provide.
Thanks
u cant downgrade once u go to Marshmallow. Its a security thing tht was updated in the latest firmware b4 Marshmallow came out. Ur gona hav to start all over again wth the latest KDZ b4 Marshmallow
I reformated into a Lollipop KDZ by flashing my ROM from the "Go back to stock" thread. Problem has appeared after i did that. I am currently on Lolipop v10D
nobody has any idea on how i can solve this issue?

download the kdz file for your device from here and flash it using LG UP here. all will be fine. i downgraded from MM to LP after MM had big battery drain. many people have downgraded using this method.

Is Updating software through LGUP safe?

I want to use LGUP to update my firmware as my OTA can't find it. Is using the "UPGRADE" option within the software safe? The phone is recognized with a DLL from JOSH1X.
Basically I want to update with a KDZ and still have all my apps, settings, photos, videos, etc. using UPGRADE and want to know if those things will still be on the device afterwards.

Purely out of curiosity, why did you not consider LG Bridge before resorting to LGUP?
