LG V500 Tablet - Nougat Upgrade Problem (Lineage File) - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

First off I'm no tech guru, so please provide as much detail as possible if you can so I can follow along... TIA!!
I am trying to upgrade my old LG V500 from KitKat 4.4.2 to Nougat.
I followed details in a video, by downloading the necessary files....
-Latest TWRP App (the APK)
https://dl.twrp.me/twrpapp/
-Latest TWRP Recovery for the v500
https://dl.twrp.me/v500/
-Stump Root
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g...
-LineageOS build for the v500
lineage-14.1-20180909-nightly-v500-signed.zip
I hit Install and selected the above Lineage file and swiped to confirm the flash in TWRP.
What I got was this error...
https://drive.google.com/file/d/12ZY3y9pNaRJxqWHuCJSEmyl5Xmn3CtXq/view?usp=sharing
Now I am confused on what to do. I don't want to lose my old 4.4.2 build since this upgrade didn't work.
I could really use some serious help on what steps I should take. My preference would be to upgrade this tablet, but if I have to revert back then so be it (but don't even know how to do that). Wondering if I did something wrong or this .zip file is just outdated, not sure what else 'Error 7' refers to, other than Error installing .zip file.
Any help would be appreciated!

Most likely that is the case, rom file is two years older than the recovery. You can either:
1. Install newer version of Lineage with that recovery: https://www.los-legacy.de/v500
2. Flash older version of TWRP first and then install that older Lineage, or some other rom (for example I have TWRP version 3.3.1-0 and Resurrection Remix N 5.8.5 FINAL which works flawlessly https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g-pad-83/development/testing-resurrection-remix-n-5-8-3-oms-t3601456)

Thx Indie Zex for the options.
My dilemma now is, how would I install this new Lineage with the recovery file, since I am still in TWRP?
Need help on what steps I need to follow to either exit out of TWRP to get the newer Lineage file.
I assume you can't load anything from the link you provided while I'm in TWRP....am I correct?
If I exit out of TWRP now, will I completely lose my original 4.4.2 (KitKat) build?

If I understand correctly, you are still in TWRP on your tablet right? If you performed full wipe of Dalvik Cache/Cache/System/Data (like you always should do before installing a new rom) then you can kiss your KitKat goodbye forever! If for some reason you didn't wipe anything, then in the main menu of TWRP you can select Reboot, then System and your tablet should (luckily) boot into KitKat. But lets say your tablet is wiped and you now have to install new rom:
1. On your computer download https://www.los-legacy.de/v500 and open gapps https://opengapps.org/ (ARM, 7.1, pico)
2. Connect your tablet with computer via usb cable and copy both rom and gapps to internal storage (Windows should see your tablet as a mass storage device no problem even if you're in TWRP and you have proper LG drivers installed)
3. Now on your tablet: from main menu go into Wipe, then Advanced Wipe, then on Select Partitions to Wipe page tick Dalvik Cache/Cache/System/Data and Swipe to Wipe
4. Back to main menu and select Install, then find rom from the internal storage, then Add more zips and find gapps and finally Swipe to confirm Flash
5. Once that's finished press Wipe Dalvik Cache/Cache and then Reboot
That should hopefully be it.

TY Indie Zex,
You understood correctly, and I did a full wipe of Dalvik Cache/Cache/System/Data. I was afraid you would say I lost my old 4.4.2., but I really just wanted some insurance to go back if things got messed up, which they did!
For the legacy OS, I assume I should be going with the very latest lineage file (2020-09-05 date)?
Question about Nougat vs Q or Pie - If I pick Nougat, is there a compatibility upgrade/update path via Nougat OS to get to Pie or Q, easily within the software just by selecting 'Update' option in the 'Settings'?
or if I ever want to add the latest Android OS like Pie or Q, I would have to again go thru the full swipe and re-load another ROM and the specific gapps for either Pie or Q.
I assume Q is still quite new and maybe buggy, but is Pie now very stable or still some unresolved issues? I know it might be difficult to answer, as there are always bugs in firmware version. Just trying to get a gauge for which would be safer to go with if I need to upgrade.
TY you again for being patient with a newbie

You always flash custom roms the same way in TWRP, you can not just update unfortunately. The next thing to pay attention to is to download correct version of gapps for Oreo or Pie roms (there are no Q roms for our tablet). You have probably seen this tutorial here for Pie https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g-pad-83/general/guide-tutorial-howto-lg-gpad-8-3-v500-t3967069. I have tried it as well as https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g-pad-83/development/rom-crdroid-android-t3772076 but they both have broken camera unfortunately. Everything else is basically fine, with Oreo having better performance.

Rhetorical questions.
What's wrong with pressing the THANKS icon under Indie Zex's answers instead of writing "TY"?
.
Besides, if you were advised to install a very stable Nougat, why don't you try it first, before thinking about P and Q?

Yes, I did see the Pie tutorial and did read through it, the non-working camera was certainly something I did not want. Good to know you have Oreo running on yours, and better performance.
So do you suggest I load Oreo vs Nougat?
For Oreo would I select v8 or v8.1? and what variant?
I found this info...I was thinking of Micro or Mini, thoughts? Can the V500 handle the memory requirements for these?
Variant:
Aroma: Graphical installer of the super package while in recovery menu, it allows user to select which applications to install.
Super: Includes all Google Apps that were ever shipped on a Google device.
Stock: Recommended package that contains all Google Apps that come standard on latest Nexus/Pixel phone.
Full : Very similar to Stock version.
Mini : Smaller set of popular Google Apps with extra functionality.
Micro: Limited set of Google Apps with Gmail, Calendar Google Now with extra functionality.
Nano : Minimal installation with extra functionality.
Pico : Minimum with Google Play functionality. (Each package varies with file sizes and included Google Apps)
TY again, much appreciated!

There is only one version of Oreo for our tablet: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g-pad-83/development/rom-crdroid-android-t3772076. I have tried it, it runs nicely but camera DOES NOT work just like in Pie version (which is a little bit choppy for my taste).

Since you already have latest TWRP version installed, I suggest you go with latest lineage rom (2020-09-05) with gapps of your choice. For Oreo and other older roms you need to flash older TWRP version, such as above mentioned 3.3.1-0 (and please do not ask how ).
And finally I wanna say this: don't worry if you mess something up, you already have and you certainly will again :laugh:. There is a wonderful world of flashing roms (and wasting your precious time ) ahead of you, so go boldly into the unknown! :fingers-crossed:

I guess I misunderstood you earlier on which rom you where using, thought it was Oreo. Does the camera function with this Resurrection Remix N 5.8.5 FINAL? Based on the Variant list I posted, how would you categorize this rom?

Camera (and everything else) works on all Nougat (and earlier) roms. Differences between them come down to customization: for example Resurrection Remix N 5.8.5 FINAL and crDroid Android 4.7 offer more customization options compared to LineageOs, but are two years old. Latest Lineage, on the other hand, has literally last month security patches. And I suggest you install them all, one at a time

I followed your instructions...at least I'm pretty sure I did. lol
I got an install Error 20, it says to download the correct version for my rom 6.0.1
I went with the GAPPS file (ARM, 7.1, micro)
Does this mean I cannot use the micro variant?

Hm, the error suggests that you have 6.0.1 rom which you tried to flash with 7.1 gapps. Just in case, download older version twrp-3.3.1-0-v500.img and flash it in TWRP:
1. Copy twrp-3.3.1-0-v500.img from computer to internal storage of a tablet
2. In main menu of TWRP select Install, then Install Image
3. Choose twrp-3.3.1-0-v500.img and flash it (IMPORTANT: do not reboot right away!)
4. Go back to main menu then press Reboot and select Recovery
5. You will boot to recovery again, now the older version
6. Now flash rom ONLY (whichever Nougat variant you want) with standard described procedure (with wipe and everything) and reboot
7. Once you are in system, check it out and come back later into TWRP to install correct gapps (yes, you can use micro)

Hi Indie Zex,
I read your above instructions, but somewhat confused.
I looked for twrp-3.3.1-0-v500.img but can't seem to find it, has the file name changed?
I went to the link page you provided (below) for your Resurrection Remix build, and the Rom available there was RR-N-v5.8.5-20171001-v500-Final.zip
2. Flash older version of TWRP first and then install that older Lineage, or some other rom (for example I have TWRP version 3.3.1-0 and Resurrection Remix N 5.8.5 FINAL which works flawlessly https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-...3-oms-t3601456)

If you don't need it anymore, you can delete it via computer. It doesn't really matter when you install .img file. When you select install image in main menu of TWRP you won't see any other files except for .img ones. Just make sure to reboot to recovery instead of reboot to system to continue with installing rom.

Great TY.
So from yesterday when my install failed, I just need some direction on what do I do to get out of this screen, please.
I have the option button to Wipe Cache/Dalvik or Reboot System.
Do I need to hit the Wipe button to remove the lineage-14.1-20200905-UNOFFICIAL-v500.zip? Or Wipe anything else?
Or do I just go back to the main menu for TWRP and install the twrp-3.3.1-0-v500.img and follow the rest of your instructions?
TY again.

I fixed it!
If anyone tries to flash from 6.0 to 7.0 and it wont boot, do what i did //
Use EMUI Recovery to grab the latest running version and let that install if you can, and then update it to EMUI 5.0 on AL10
Then install TWRP on 5.0 (I used 3.0.2.0) from this thread = https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/twrp-3-0-2-0-mate-8-t3521215
After booting into TWRP on 7.0 the first thing i did was decrypt the data partition by going into Wipe -> Data -> Advanced and then changing it in the Change File System option from ext4 to ext2, and then back from 2 to 4.
It will take 20-30 mins to do going back to ext4, this is normal. then it is DONE
This allowed it to be wiped and decrypted for my AL10 model, otherwise you couldnt access the data partition properly. (And just wiping the data partition didnt work for some reason, not sure it just had errors.)
Then I flashed this rom and everything has gone smoothly since. Not a single worry at all in the world after that, no need to reflash any root privs or anything. Props to everyone for their software/firmwares respectively, I own none of this and am just saying how/what I did to get this working even after screwing it up.
If anyone accidentally flashes 7.0 over 6.0 and it wont boot, try this... ^^
EDIT - Changed, something I did didnt work the second time, fixed.

I never flashed Gapps, i went into HiApp and installed the play store through there and then updated it, worked perfectly.
After i reinstalled the rom because of some errors with the camera i was getting i ended up having some problems with google play services but I just downloaded the latest online and installed it, been smooth since.
AND i can confirm, im not getting and "read more" crashes or Messenger crashes whatsoever. Sorry to hear about your problem! If it keeps happening try backing up data, reflashing the rom or flash stock first then reflash it and try installing google play store through HiApp.

Sorry! Updated.
I went and changed it from ext4 to ext2 which took only less than 1 min, and then from ext2 to ext4 which took about half an hour.
Then it worked!
(Sorry for the confusion)

If you try anyways, make sure you make a backup of your current rom before flashing and tell us what you did/results.
If its on a 6.0 rom you can follow the mini guide I had written, get yourself into EMUI 5.0 before you flash it. either by the official updater if you can by Restoring through the EMUI recovery back to stock and updating, or flashing an EMUI 5 rom and getting 3.0.2-0 twrp on there first.
Update : Been running this rom on EMUI 5.0 since release and it is super stable and amazing to run.
Been the best rom ive had on my Mate 8, definitely deserves some more attention. My battery life is about 15-25% better than emui 4.x and the phone doesnt have wakelock and app sleep problems for me at all compared to previous roms ive used.
We just need this rom with Kang VIP and it would be 110% sweet!
Waiting for a release of Xposed to come out so i can test and report back.
ive seen some users installing this rom over the latest kangvip, that way one has best of both worlds

Hi jbmc....how to do? You mean flash kang and then dirty flash HRT? How will have both functionalities?
Also, in OP it is not clear what to wipe and what not to...
"Card brush is not necessary after the success of double-clear, otherwise it may lead to ROOT failure"....what this means exactly?
There is a new hrt b584 version available , I saw it available on the Chinese website but don't have baidu

Not able to install any custom ROM in OnePlus 5T

Hello Guys,
I need help regarding the issue that I'm facing. What happens is ROM get installed properly without any error but not boots up. It get stuck at boot animation screen. I tried lots of ROMs including DOT OS, C droid, AICP, TOXYC OS. Facing the same issue to all of the ROMs. I followed the below steps to install.
1. Download the ROM file
2. Download the GApps.
3. Booted into TWRP Recovery Mode.
4. Backup done (optional)
5. Wipe all the 4 partitions except Internal Storage.
6. Then install the ROM file and followed by GApps
7. Installation successful for both ROM & GApps.
8. Reboot.
I tried installing the ROM only but result was same.
I'm currently running on Oxygen OS Open Beta 10.
PLEASE HELP. THANKS IN ADVANCE.
Which TWRP do you use? Personally, I recommend this one by codeworkx: https://sourceforge.net/projects/ch....1-0-20180309-codeworkx-dumpling.img/download
Some roms require you to be decrypted; others don't. Most roms require the latest firmware (5.1.3) to be flashed before the rom, gapps, etc. Read the installation instructions carefully. Use the recommended firmware and gapps package linked to the rom. Before you start flashing roms, you should wipe your phone in fastboot mode: fastboot format userdata. This will wipe your phone clean; all your data will be gone. So, backup all your data to your PC before proceeding. After format, reboot directly to TWRP and move your firmware, rom, gapps, etc. to internal storage; follow the flash order and procedures exactly as outlined for the rom you want to try.
I tried installing latest TWRP (3.2.1-2) for my OnePlus 5T but no luck. Please suggest.

Did you try to format data (after wiping the partitions) ?

In twrp, when you go in the wipe tab, there is a "format data" button. It will wipe the data and internal storage partitions and remove encryption. But don't worry, depending of the ROM you flash it will encrypt again.

Did you check the module settings ? You can tweak some stuff.
Or maybe it didn't works because of Lineage (but it should, idk why not), but you can try aosp extended, which is closer to aosp.

I tried AOSP Extended before a week ago. Everything was working fine except headphone Jack. Sound was not coming in my earphones. Sound from speaker grill was coming, even I tried with connecting to Bluetooth speaker, that's also working fine. The only issue I had with that headphone Jack.
Please suggest if you have any solution for that then I'll surely try it again.
Thanks

AOSP, RR Resurrection Remix, ArrowOS and others

I just wanted to point out that I have been able to boot some treble GSI on my device from different roms like AOSP, RR, ArrowOS in the treble section of XDA and some of them boot fine, but I have found some issues:
PHH PIE GSI doesn't like magisk it breaks wifi and mobile data once magisk is flashed
PHH Oreo AOSP GSI I do not remember any issues besides being too stock for my liking
RR GSI It has so many options almost comparable to what a Venom Rom would be for HTC devices
TWRP it is not able to read encryption on any of this GSIs
AOSP Oreo I don't remember if the other variants GSIs does not read exFAT formatted MicroSD (works on PIE GSI)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development
I would like more users to share their experience here with GSIs
the steps I took to flash this
1. make sure you download an arm64 AB GSI image from your favorite ROM
2. go to TWRP wipe section wipe system, Dalvik cache data & internal
3. go to TWRP wipe section format data, type yes
5. restore stock Vendor.img and stock Boot.img
6. flash GSI
7. reboot & enjoy
first boot might take awhile it encrypts the device, thi is the part that makes TWRP not being able to decrypt data since TWRP decrypts Qualcomm Encryption on our device but no stock android encryption this part it is possible to fix by TWRP team and it will probably come in later
Thanks for sharing. I was planning on trying out a GSI this weekend and see how it goes. Glad it works!
I forgot to save the stock vendor and stock boot file I need these two files Can you help

Read the OP there
I tried to boot the RR img, no dice.
Backed up modified rom on slot b
Switched to slot a in TWRP, supposedly empty
Wiped system, data, cache, dalvik
Flashed prior stock vendor img and boot img
Flashed RR ab arm64 su gapps Img
Rebooted slot a
Bootloop
Interestingly, after looking 3 times, my phone booted back to slot b by itself back to stock, back up restored just fine
I realize I didn't wipe factory reset with yes
Finally got RR to to boot! It's a very finicky process. I think my problem was I kept trying to "dual" boot, Viper in one slot and the GSI in the other. Turns out it just has to be in the active slot, regardless of which slot you switch to in TWRP. Maybe that's obvious for some. This a/b partition business sure has a learning curve.
Anyway, things I noticed on RR: Lots of customization as usual for RR, very fast and smooth, screen brightness is on max all the time regardless of slider or auto brightness, and I couldn't make phone calls but texting worked. Everything else seemed to work fairly well. I love the fling navbar....on to the next one.
I'm not sure if anyone else is trying the GSI's, this doesn't seem to be a very active thread. So far I have only been able to boot RR 8.1 GSI. I have tried multiple other images without any success. I think the reason I didn't get data and calls didn't work on RR is that I am on Verizon and the HTC u12 does not have CDMA radios. Volte calling was not available on the rom. Oh well. I'm excited for the upcoming developments in the Viper forum. If anyone knows a fix for data on verizon with the GSI's, I'm all ears. Thanks
Anybody successful in making one of this ROMs a daily driver?
Sent from my HTC U12+ using XDA Labs
Resurrection Remix 8.1 is pretty stable if you are on a gsm network. I popped in a Tmobile sim card and it was pretty solid. There are some minor annoyances like the inability to adjust the brightness (always on full), though decreasing screen pixels makes it more dim, vendor mismatch message on boot, and no volte or wifi calling. There may be some other small things like with the camera and bluetooth but I didn't keep it for long as I am on Verizon and don't get data. I could see using it as a DD though. There are probably ways to fix the annoyances I mentioned.
Have any of you tested this version of RR on U12+?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...0-resurrection-remix-v7-0-arm64-32-b-t3891636
For example, face recognition, 4k camera mode, slow motion recording, 3D sound, AudioFocus, bokeh mode etc.?

How do I get this Android10 custom ROM installed on my G960F?

Hey guys, please explain it to me as I would be 5 years old.
For nearly 3 years I used a Android 8.0 version called "lightROM" named "Bodhisattva" from a guy here on the forum.
I've seen about Android 10 and thought, here we gooo.
Sadly it didn't worked this way.
I looked through the Android 10 ROMs and complete overwhelmed, because the forum is complete confusing, I decided to go with this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s9/development/havoc-os-stable-exynos-t4095221
I downloaded the needed gaps and newest Magisk, flashed newest TWRP 3.3.1-1 and rebooted into TWRP menu.
As with every new ROM, I deleted everything. The data, files, everything except dalvic and external SD.
I then wanted to flash the ROM, but I got a sort of "Android 10 vendor image missing" error.
okay, I then flashed my old Android 8 ROM and here I'm back, luckily.. Stupid Titanium Backup doesn't work too, it just doesn't recognize the files, what a stupid program. Seems like I lost everything.
One of the problems I have are all those suspicious shortcuts everyone is using for everything, I mostly understand just 1/3.
Now I've tried to find a answered all over the forum and Google, what that "Vendor Image" is. It's a sort of second partition to be able to run Android 10.
But where do I get it, how to install and what do I have to do, to get the linked ROM running on my Galaxy S9 SM-G960F Exynos Europe Version.
Please offer me all links needed to download everything I need per click, to be able to install all needed things.
Please talk to me as if I'm 5!!
I think the most simple way to do is to flash the latest stock firmware through Odin which you can download from SamMobile or just use Frija for faster and easier download, and after you flash you can finish the first android setup and flash twrp through odin

Thanks for your answer.
Why do I have to flash TWRP through Odin? Because it's already on my phone.
And what version of TWRP would I have to flash? I've read about problems with 3.3.1-1 and newest Android 10.
At the point where I've flashed the newest Android 10 firmware for my phone, can I install any ROM I want? Like lineageOS 17.1 for example?
Can you give me a recommendation for a ROM please, I'm pretty lost with this atm.
I need a ROM with a dark theme and mainly to play games. Right now I have a lot of trouble with games, where other people on reddit state "it's working perfectly fine".
For example "DotA Underlords" is a pure 5 fps lag party after 10 rounds.
Is there a ROM what concentrates at issues like this?

because after you flash your phone with the stock firmware it will replace all your modification to the default factory settings, that's why you have to flash it again through Odin otherwise if you get into recovery mode it will just showing stock recovery.
hmm, never hear about that problem tho, but I'm using the 3.3.1-1 version of TWRP running EvolutionX Rom Android 10 and got zero problems
yeah, after you flash the latest stock firmware and finish all the first setup (you can just press skip at everything) then you can flash TWRP through Odin. then if you success you can go to TWRP and follow the installation instruction of rom that you prefer
note: In my experience I have to finish the first android setup to be able to flash TWRP, if not then it will fails all the time unless I did finish the setup
I'm not quiet sure about that since what I'm aiming for the rom is for the productivity battery life and I don't really game on my phone, but I can give you a brief summary of the rom that I've tried.
LineageOS 17.1 : is the most simple and stock android experience that I ever tried, don't have alot of features but runs noticeably smooth compared to stock samsung firmware. also it can automatically update your phone, so you don't have to manually download and flash every update
EvolutionX : is LineageOS version but with a tons of great features imo, it's not too much and not lacking of features that I need. It has gaming mode tho, but never tried using it. also it can automatically update the phone
AlexisROM : this is the rom for you if want to have OneUI experience but with features that comes from the latest galaxy s features like OneUI 2.1 etc. this rom also highly debloated which also you can modify in the installation menu since it's using the Aroma installer
If you feeling like the rom needs a little tweak for the performance, you can try to flash custom kernel that has features to tweak the cpu clock performance

Wow! Thank you, is it my birthday? I will flash over the next couple of days. Thank you once again.
I have just tried to flash the gapps version. I flashed with Majisk and got stuck in a bootloop for 25 minutes. Went back into recovery, went through the wipe process again and re-flashed Palladium. I got the 'successful' flash message in Twrp, but when I went to reboot it said that there was no OS installed. I was able to flash the ROM that I was on previously (Pixel) without any problems. Maybe I had a corrupted download, sadly I don't have the time to try again right now, I will try again in a few days.

Happened to me as well but i got it fixed by flashing the vanilla rom first and then let it boot, after that i rebooted back to the recovery and flashed gapps. Worked just fine. Hope this will help anyone having a similar issue
Any way to get rid of the home buttons and have a home bar instead ? Couldn't find any option like Derpfest has. Props for the great rom, I'm loving it and the battery life is just incredible.

Make sure you have the zip files anywhere in your internal storage. But not inside a folder within the internal storage. Because whenever you wipe data,system,cache and dalvik it will also wipe the downloaded files inside the download folder.

I kept them in the same place that I kept Pixel ROM and was able to flash that afterwards. Plus the APK's that I had within that folder and the Majisk zip were fine too. Weird issue.

Edit: Flashed Orange Fox, I'll try again.
Yesss!! Flashed it! It was obviously the recovery version that I was running. On the suggestion of @KeinePanik I flashed Orange Fox recovery and voila! (Thank you my friend)
My apologies to the developer and everyone else for flooding this thread with my issues.
I have been running the app for about 5 hours now and can report that it is really smooth, great battery life and some nice UI extras. Many thanks to the dev, will it go official?
Current release has june sec. patch or shall I wait for the upcoming update if it around the corner ???
