[STOCK][N] Images and zips for 20a - T-Mobile LG G5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other

Short on tons of time, but here you go for your downloading pleasure...
First off, you have the OTA zip from LGE, it only works on stock recovery...
Download From Google
Android File Host Mirror(s)
Working on update zip for twrp users currently.. Stay tuned

Question. If I'm using TWRP, is it possible to just flash the stock recovery with one of those .IMG flashing apps to regain stock recovery and flash the update? Or would I just be better off waiting for a TWRP flashable zip?

Wait for the TWRP zip if you want to keep recovery. Flashing stock recovery will probably lock you out without an updated TOT as the fuses likely have been changed

Lol dude do you read at all look at the op he said he's working on it. The golden rule of xda is never ask for updates. Your the one being a **** by annoying someone who's trying to make a flashable zip for you. If you can't wait then make it yourself this a development forum.

Go to the Google Play store.....get an app called Flashify...... Select Recovery Image, select/download TWRP 3.0.2.1 (latest version) and it will flash the recovery to your previously rooted phone in a few seconds. Enjoy. :laugh:

[RELEASE] Multi Recovery Flasher

im just letting the S3 users know that i have now got an s3 and will begin developing for s3 now!
starting with my first creation for the s3, i have made a flashable .zip file that flashes the selected recovery, so no need for re-downloading and re-flashing, simply flash the .zip, then aroma will open asking whitch recovery to flash then it will flash then reboot into the new recovery!
coming soon!

personally I do not see the point yet as I just can download the single recovery (there is anyway not that much choice) and flash it but I am sure there are users that will appreciate an Aroma installer.

An app that could connect to a central repository and download the latest versions would be great. Then using the same method stweaks by siyah uses to "hijack" recovery or temp boot would make more sense to me.
That way you open app, choose recovery to boot and flash your zips. Then boot back to android...
Rather than boot recovery, flash zip,,choose recovery, flash zip...
Or just use philz recovery and be able to flash all zips anyway

problem to update to 4.3 with TWRP installed

Hi guys. I have a small question and maybe a problem. I have Nexus 4 rooted with unlocked boot loader, and TWRP installed on it. And as I think with stock rom, because only done everything to root, but nothing else.
Now I have a problem: phone offering to update to 4.3. I press update. It updating and restarting, but after restart it loads TWRP. And what should I do next to finish update? Because I don't know how to make it finish updating with TWRP? What should I do with TWRP to do so? I will be very thankful for any help. Because twice was making update, but still on 4.2.2.
You need to flash the stock recovery because you can't update via OTA with a custom recovery.
You can actually OTA with TWRP.. The device should load into TWRP and complete the update. After the update you will lose TWRP and root

This is incorrect. The best way to update is download the ota zip from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2145848
Go to twrp recovery flash the ota zip then SU zip v1.51 reboot done. Now you got 4.3 with root and you won't lose your recovery

Sorry if it sounded incorrect to you but what you just suggested, although it works, it is not an OTA update per definition as far as I know. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

When you get the notification saying there is a update on your phone you select it and it downloads flashes the ota zip. What I said is the same thing except you download it and flash it your self and by doing it this way you can flash the SU zip at the same time and not lose root or recovery.

Thanks, your post above made me read that thread you linked and while it works, it's not a real OTA (notification from Google or OEMs), but let's not fall into semantics here, the thing is it works and does the job pretty much like a real OTA.

I know my friend I'm just trying to say that the affirmation "yes, you can update via OTA using a custom recovery" is not valid for someone getting the notification which is the common scenario for most people. Anyways, it's all good :thumbsup:

Verizon 4.4 OTA

I pulled this from my phone and posted it in the other thread, and someone suggested I make a thread for it. Here it is!
http://j2cool.com/mirror/files/Blur_Version.139.15.1.ghost_verizon.Verizon.en.US.zip
To install, you will need to be on the latest OTA (camera update).
Fastboot flash the original system.img and recovery,img
You can then use the volume down key to select "Recovery"
Once in recovery, press the power button and volume buttons together to bring up the menu,and select "Install from SDcard"
You can then select the OTA, and install it. Your phone will reboot, and you will have to do this again from the new recovery. You should then be able to reboot system and have your new 4.4 Kitkat Moto X!

You don't need boot.img in either. Now, I don't know how the dev ed works, maybe it's just the exact same with an unlocked bootloader, so let me know how installing goes.

Put the zip in internal storage. Go into stock recovery, install zip, choose this update zip. Because one of the first things it does it flash a new recovery, you have to go into recovery again and install zip again (the second time around it knows it doesn't have to flash the recovery).
Of course, since this way uses stock recovery, you have to be running stock.

Yes, you're going to lose root (the update will wipe out System). If you have an unlocked bootloader then it isn't a big deal -- just re-root after the update.
BUT don't try to flash this update with twrp installed. 1) I'm pretty sure it won't work anyway b/c it needs to verify that your System is stock and, at the very least, installing twrp changes the install-recovery script which is in System 2) this .zip file is made to be flashed from a stock recovery, so I'm not sure it would work 3) as I said before, part of this update is a new recovery - I'm not sure how well the process would go if you started from twrp
And how would I root after its done

The same way you rooted before?
I'm sorry, I've been assuming you have a Dev edition b/c you said you had twrp -- is that not the case? If you do NOT have a dev edition and you rooted via pwn- or rock- or whatever its called myMoto then NO, you will NOT be able to root after the update until someone releases another hack

Maybe the battery level is too low, so i'm gonna charge it a little and see what happens

HOWEVER I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BRICKS OR YOUR OWN STUPIDITY
THIS IS YOUR ONLY WARNING

4) flash the modified OTA and wipe the caches
5) Flash SuperSU.zip
6) reboot

I heard people saying it would flash over CM11 nightlies and I didn't believe it. Just for grins, I backed up my CM12 nightlies, wiped cache/dalvik-art and gave it a whirl. So far no problems, but later in the day I'm going to do a clean install.

this has the assert lines removed from the updater script, you needed to remove them before on cm11.
Apparently not now, the warnings are because since this has a radio.img and other stuff you can brick your device.

Hey, whats the difference its having from the one that is other post? There peoples are simply flashing from CM12 nightlies.
So after flashing it with Philz Recovery with the result "t", my Android just doesn't boot up anymore. The boot animation animates for an infinite time. What now?

You can try it at your own risk, there is a small updater script change that allows twrp to flash it. It does flash a radio which can be dangerous. If it's working for them then this should in Theory work, try it at your own risk and let us know if it works

One guy in the other thread already bricked his device trying to flash from Oxygen People flashing from CM11s & CM11/12 nightlies seem to be doing ok except for the occasional FC, probably from not clearing cache/dalvik.

I bricked mine last week going from cm12 back to 11S, luckily I was able to get it up and running by flashing colorOS via their flashtool and then reflashing cm11S again.
These are reasons why I am stressing this so much. I had it happen, it sucks but I got my device back

How to update firmware if you've already flashed TWRP

I figured out how to update after flashing twrp. Maybe obvious to some but I've seen questions about it.
The zip in the "Convert CA to WW" thread has the stock rom in a zip file. Open it and inside is a recovery.img file in it, extract it to your adb folder on your PC.
Download the firmware update from ASUS official site and save to the root of your sd card or internal storage (it will recognize both.)
Reboot into fastboot on your device.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
When that finishes reboot and your phone should find the update and ask if you want to install. Do so. You may need to power cycle first.
When you're done you can reflash TWRP.
Once you have TWRP you can flash Magisk or SuperSU as you see fit.
It's painless.
An old post from you, but thank you. This was really easy. I've spent 2 days trying to figure out how to upgrade without restore stock rom, boot etc. and lose all data. I was about to give up when I saw this post, I didn't expect it to work - to easy. But I could give it a try.
This was painless.
Then it took me 3 hours to figure out how to reinstall twrp again, it wasn't just to flash and reboot I had to boot directly into recovery after flash. But that is another story.
Thanks, you just saved me some time!

When you flash stock recovery and update you unroot, so you will get FOTA. Just update to Oreo and then flash twrp and Magisk (or whatever you use) again.
I am rooted and updated to Oreo then chose updates involving battery improvement and/or system stability (downloaded to external sd), after installed the last update I flashed twrp and rooted again.
You need to flash stock recovery before update. The phone will find the updated with custom recovery but update will fail.
The site I downloaded stock recovery from is down so you have to search for it, or download RAW stock rom and extract the recovery from it
