[Q] DEFY+ BT9.1 can root ?

Somebody know ?
Thanks.

I'm sorry, but... What's BT9.1?

I'm going to take a wild guess here, but I think he's talking about the bootloader version (probably a confusion between the SBF and it).
Trimis de pe Defy CM9

Have you tried this yet?

Thanks v1n337,
I will give it a try, it sounds promising. Just have to prepare myself by reading about flashing.

Some people say you don't even need to wipe (steps 1 and 3) when using this method.

This is the development section. The Q&A section is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/help
That said, I don't understand your question. Your device is a T-mobile LG G2 (D801). I have basically the same info as you but your baseband version ends with 36 and mine ends with 34. I'm also on the latest version so my Software version is: D80110g. I bought my device in the US.

Looks like a UK T-Mobile due to the D802 software version and baseband.

Unable to root SM-G900V S5 Verizon

Hello. I have used this forum many of times and have found great info on rooting. But I am stumped on this. I have
Verizon Galaxy S5
Model number: SM-G900V
Android Version: 4.4.4
Baseband Version: G900VRU1ANI2
Kernel Version: 3.4.0

Sun Sep. 14 18:04:11 KST 2014
Build Number: KTU84P.G900VVRU1ANI2
Hardware Version: G900V.05
I tried to use towelroot.com and when I tap the sign, all I get is sent to another page with a bunch of visual code. No make it rain, no nothing. Then I downloaded Odin, unzipped the file, did not see a .tar file anywhere and when I put my phone into download mode, connect it to my computer, my device does not show up in the accept box. Maybe I'm doing something wrong or there isn't a rootable way for my device yet. Any information will help. Thanks

Solution.

I have the same exact build number and I managed get my handset stuck in a recovery bootloop. I ODIN back to stock. Back to square one. At least I didn't brick it.

I dont have a g900v, but laat i checked they were in almoat identical boats as the g900a, and last i checked for us, theres no way to root lollipop or downgrade or anything, so the reason you are unable is because you cant.

Thanks. I'll stop trying. It would be insane to fire up ODIN again and flash something older, when they have already patched the stuff. I just wanted 'root', sigh.

I take back my previous post, after poking around in the verizon section it seems all hope is not lost, i recommend having a read over is the verizon galaxy s5 section, your question is more likely to be answered there.

I dont think you can if you are already on 5.0, if you were rooted on 4.4.2 you could but if you werent youre stuck.

Your problem lies where mine does. Depending on the baseband version you have, means that the bootloader may or may not have an exploit available to allow root etc.
For him, the OA8 version allows a root method. As for you, on OC4 as well as the one I have, OG5, is un rootable as far as I know. At least for right now.
If you require, tethering, mobile Hotspot (if you have unlimited data like me), call recording, ad blocking etc. These things are still possible without root on your Verizon s5. I made a post about it a few pages back. However these are the programs I use for those things while we wait for root .
No root is required for these apps to work properly on the Verizon galaxy s5. They all have free trials but a couple require purchase for full functionality. Money well spent imo.
"Call Recorder" by Skvalex - call recording & management ($8
"PDANET" or "FoxFi" (PDANET includes foxfi) - for tethering & wifi Hotspot ($7)
"Block It!" - VPN ad blocking service. (Free but not available on Google play)

This worked for me

Amazon G4 XT1625 change software channel?

Ok so, Ive been searching the forums but haven't found a concise answer.
Background info:
Moto G4 XT1625 (Amazon Prime ad Version)
Bootloader unlocked
Not rooted
Software Channel/Variant: amz
Current software version: MM 6.0.1
Build Number: MPJ24. 139-64
What I'd like to know is:
1.) Can i flash the stock non-amazon prime version rom for this model to my phone safely, thereby changing the software variant/channel to retus?
2.) Is the rom for MPJ24.139-63 available to flash as i want to try out the nougat soak test, and is the soak test recommended?
Cheers.

I don't think flashing a non-Amazon factory room will change the channel to retus. As for the soak test, some have had no problems and some have had problems. I can tell you that flashing the soak can stop the official update. At least it did for me when I did an official soak on my G3. Motorola wasn't a lot of help in getting it fixed but eventually one of their engineers pushed me an update.

I'm probably wrong, but I thought the prime version with ads had an un-unlockable bootloader? How did you unlock it?

I thought so too, when I saw it mentioned in the forums, I checked the website immediately and I got through by probably sheer luck.

Help in updating V20 H990DS not registered

Hello! So I recently swapped my A5 2017 for a V20. The problem is my V20 is still on nougat and I can't update it because it says that the phone is not registered. I tried registering it to LG but it needs a proof of purchase and the previous owner said that the receipt is already lost. Can anyone help me update it? Thanks!

Open up your battery cover and look for the model number on the sticker behind the battery. Nevermind I saw the thread title, look for the the dirty santa for the H990 thread, follow that to root
