*free* how to s-off!

mod edit, nothing of value here...

I'd love to try this, but don't want to risk bricking my M8. Anyone feel like being a guinea pig?

I can assure you its almost impossiable to brick it with this method. the boot.img works this way.
You flash the boot.img and reboot into android and under the boot up the boot.img checks hmm is this device able to be s-offed?? and the boot.img checks and if no it will just commit suicide and remove it self and if it works it will s-off. and the boot.img removes it self after first boot so no worries there and its s-off until you choose to unroot it and uns-off it. it works on all the hboots.

flashing kernel is supposed to get your device soffed? Very interesting. BTW aren't you the one that got banned recently?

Have you tried it on any device?

Not again !!!
STOP THIS FAKE STUFF ! DO NOT FLASH THIS ! IT WILL NOT GIVE YOU S-OFF !

So, the thread has been reopened, has anyone used it "successfully" ?
You say it can uns-off, does that work on a device that was previously s-off ed with sunshine ?
Just curious.
Cheers

Thank you bro! Who tried it?

So here is the MD5Sum of the boot.img
c12fae55b5ce4a3e9fbbea5b408cf2bb
So let me compare this MD5 sum with the Mako Twrp 2.8.0.1 img, AKA NEXUS 4 recovery image!!
c12fae55b5ce4a3e9fbbea5b408cf2bb
would you look at that!
It is the exact same image!!!!!! I have also split the image to check this.
DO NOT FLASH! It is a NEXUS 4 RECOVERY IMAGE
N.B: HTC bootloader will probably not allow it to flash, due to dt.img issues.

Are you guys really that naive to believe this is for real !
ITS FAKE !
JUST DONT FLASH THE FILE !

It's really weird that the main A7 model gets 0 to none attention . I hope someone will notice . Thanks for the post though

Bump for this!
We really need a recovery for A700F, we already have root thanks to ShinySide, but without Recovery there's no chance for custom ROMS.
I would have developed/ported it by myself but I haven't found any guide how to do it and I don't have the sufficient knowledge.

Well i could have done it too( I have a bit of knowledge ) but I'm in the last year of senior high-school and in struggling with time :/ If I want to go to the University I should stay focused, else I'd do it for sure. I just hope that someone will notice us and give us some attention

You're wrong, as long as you have root you can install custom roms with Flashfire, in fact it does most things a custom recovery can including backups.
If I get time I'll knock up a build of twrp.
What build is this device running at the moment, is it bootloader unlocked and is it Exynos or qualcomm?
I require someone to upload their recovery.img from the stock firmware.
Note: I don't have this device so a decent tester is required who doesn't mess about.

Test 1, this is a quick test port from an older version of twrp, it may or may not boot on lollipop firmware

Stock recovery:

Thats not a problem I just need to adjust the resolution.
It works OK apart from that, backups etc?
Can you check adb works. Load ADB, Connect your device and type ADB DEVICES. See if your device is detected.
What's your time zone? I'm UK so it's around 1.00pm now, won't be home until 7pm ish.
Will you be available for more testing?

So i am sitting at around 3:22 pm on Athens time-zone and the unfortunate thing is that i will be leaving home by 7pm and be returning by 10:30pm (School stuff :/ ) so we can work after i am home ,that'd be around 8:30 for your time-zone. Everything seems usable , I am installing as i am typing, the adb services along with SDK. Will update when i get it up and running. Cheers

Perfect, that's what you should see.
Go ahead with your mods just make sure your backup works first.
Will post up another build later to test with the resolution fix.

This build is the latest TWRP 2.8.7.0. I have also built it with the new TWRP stock theme. Hopefully resolution issue is fixed for this one.

[System Pull] [LG-H901BK_V10c] T-Mobile LG V10

Hope this helps out. This was after I unlocked bootloader and re-setup my phone (so there are some apps installed). Total unpacked size is 3.26GB, zip is 1.52GB.

Sorry for the seemingly noob question, but I've unlocked, rooted, installed ROMs, and modded system directories for many years but am unfamiliar with system pulls. What is the purpose of this and how can it be used on the new T-Mobile V10? Thanks.

It can't. It's just a dump of the system partition. Usually benefits people with other devices looking for something off this device. Maybe an updated app or lib.

As soon as @TheJesus and I can get online at the same time we might be able to come up with something...

You guys are quick. Just got mine on JoD, but don't want to do too much until we have a way to return to 100% stock.
Very cool!

Bahaha, that was the first place I looked

If someone could modify this to be able to prompt me for an unlock code when I enter a different SIM card, I would be very, very happy. Apparently T-Mobile does something to stop the prompt from coming up, and I want to be able to unlock it almost immediately. I'm on my way to get the phone now, but I don't want to come home with a useless paperweight.
Apparently a similar stock ROM was created for the LG G4 as it had the same problem. I would love to see a ROM for this once TWRP is publicly released for the V10!

i thought you had to wait at least 15 days since you been using the device to qualify for sim unlocking your phone. tmobile told me that on the phone before.

New T-Mobile Update Root?

So I understand that there is a new update out and I'm wanting to upgrade to it. I'm currently rooted and have xposed installed. I was wondering if I will keep root and not have to wipe my device.
If I have to re-root it, could someone please show me the steps to take? I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!

Yes, to upgrade to the newest firmware you will lose root and more then likely have to fully wipe your phone, just make sure you back everything up. The root method is the same as when you 1st rooted your phone, but I will leave you a link to the root thread. Always try to search for the answer's before asking question's. Hope this helps you out buddy Click here

Hey bud I hope I caught you before you took the update. I would read the stock rom thread for that update. Something about not updating the bootloader . I have not taken the update as of yet so I dont know about it but here is the thread for it. You might want to ask in there before updating.
