Flashing firmware using LG UP (k8, k10, ...) - LG K10 Guides, News, & Discussion

First of all there is a guide already for some devices made by pvineeth97 so if you have one of those devices, you better use his description:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-k10/how-to/guide-upgrade-downgrade-lg-k10-t3488250
Secondly this guide is not meant to be providing kind of a "one click" method. This guide is meant to provide you info about how to make lg up recognize your device.
You need a working LG Bridge (this would mean that you installed all the necessary drivers already).
Also download a firmware for your device, you can use this guide by Kappu:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-k10/how-to/guide-downloading-kdz-lg-bridge-t3504497
Extract LGUPc.dll from your kdz file using lg firmware extractor (http://viid.me/qe7ufH) or if you use Kappu's guide there is also a folder you can find this dll file.
Rename LGUPc.dll to LGUP_8916.dll
Get LG UP lab version (1.10) (you can find it on xda)
After you installed it, do not run it.
Put LGUP_8916.dll into folder:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model\8916"
Download (http://viid.me/qe7ijc) or make your own reg file consisting these lines:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\LG Electronics\LGUP\Model\K35010e]
"DLL_PATH"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\LG Electronics\\LGUP\\model\\8916\\LGUP_8916.dll"
"MODEL_NAME"="K35010e"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\LG Electronics\LGUP\Model\K35010e\Provision]
"BIN File"=" "
name it: "k350n_.reg" or whatever device you have (mine is k350n)
as you can see in the reg file there are three instaces of "K35010E". This is my device "id".
If you have a different device (which is rather likely) you will need to use it's "id". Firstly you can chose it from the name of the kdz (the first 4-8 characters of the kdz filename).
Now import this entry to registry (double click on the ".reg" file).
Later on when you try to connect your device and start lg up it will show you a small window (Model List) and if in that window in the first column (under "model") it sais "unknown" then in the next column ("Com ports") you can read the device "id" you have to use, right after the com port (eg. COM4, K35010e).
So change all instaces of "id" regarding to your devices "id" and import the reg file again.
Also you can download pvineeth97 reg files to see how they work and prepare your own.
Now put your phone into download mode (turn it off, hold vol+ button and connect to usb).
Once its connected and all drivers seems to be properly installed you can run LGUP. See above what to do when you have the unknown model error.
When your phone is properly connected, you can chose the proper kdz file and flash it (refurbish -> start).
Sometimes phone reboots twice so don't get scared after the first boot up this might reboot rigth after.
All data will be lost if you use refurbish mode! Optionally you can try using upgrade mode so you will not lose any data however might not solve your problem.
Sometimes when the second time you use it the device id changes so when you have that unknown device error message you have to change the "id" accordingly and add it to registry again (update the reg file and double click).
No promises and no responsibility by me...

In case of 10g firmware (K8, k350n) uncompress and put this file (http://viid.me/qrKdHT) into "C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model\10g" folder and uncompress and add this dll file (http://viid.me/qrKdVX) to registry (double click and allow adding it).

and there is another column next to unknown model (on the right, under COM ports), what is written there? Maybe post a screenshot if you can.

Will this same method work for LG K-10 428?
Can someone please upload a link to MetroPCS LG K-10 in order to downgrade from marshmallow to lollipop. At least it should be ms42810b

Maybe you find lollipop firmware here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-k10/development/stock-versions-model-lg-k10-t3457319
and then you can use the guide from the OP to use lg up to downgrade your phone.

Does LG UP allow flashing ALL of the original software?
I need to revert my LG K8 to full stock (seems like newest SuperSU messed up some things) and guess what... LG Bridge doesn't wipe all SuperSU components. I've tried wiping Cache, Data and even System and reinstalling via LG Bridge on top of that and still there is /supersu directory and I cannot receive OTA to 6.0.1. I guess it must be boot image that somehow is left untouched by LG Bridge. I just hope that kdz downloaded by LG Bridge contains all necessary stuff...

Yeah, i was also suffering a lot with lg bridge... LgUp works great though. Totally clean install. And yes, that kdz contains everything you need.

@gottlasz I don't get it, what it means "8916"???
Should my series K10 430DSY had a same code?
Thanks.

it's just a folder name... you can name it whatever you want (like it could be "k10430dsy") just use your folder name accordingly at all instances of 8916... and of course you have to make that folder in the up/model instead of 8916
(i used this folder name because if you use the "factory" installer of the phones for lg up it makes such folders...)

I guess the .dll file taken from your kdz is not in the folder or has a different name from which is given in the .reg file.
Check the .reg file and edit it accordingly or put the .dll file to the rigth place with the right name.
If you can't make it work, send me your .dll and .reg file and i'll make it for you.

The decrypter tool has been the same for a long time. The keys haven't changed. $12. And has worked till a couple of weeks ago.
Depends on what you are decrypting. If it's the files we have here in the Dev forum, it works.
If you try it on files elsewhere, it may not work. It probably will not work on A51x or 70x update files. Nobody has tried.
Definately won't work on Asus updates
MD
Absolutely nothing wrong with the decrypter. You have to wait a few minutes depending on PC. Has to decrypt 400mb remember.

Hi,
Sorry for the newbie question.
I cannot run the tool. Here is what I do:
Using PC window 7 to download the zip file.
Unzip it.
Have an exe file but get an error message when run it. (Window can not find the path ...)​
Can you please explain how to use this decrypt tool ? or tell me what kind of error I did ?
Thanks a lot for your help,

Sounds like you're trying to run it from within the zip file itself? Helps to know the full error message.
Try unzipping it to your C:\ drive. Then run it again.
It's a small app, and basically you will get a button to select the file (zips only), then select Start. After a couple minutes, it will write the decrypted file in the same folder as the original (says decrypted at the end of the file name).

Thanks a lot for your quick help.
This is a fault of may anti virus that prevents to run the tool.
Just turn it off and I can run the tool.

Extracted TOT file, got a bunch of .mbn files...

I extracted the Sprint LG G5 TOT file using this tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/fix-unbrick-lg-g2-stuck-qualcomm-hs-usb-t2933830 and got a bunch of .mbn files (recovery.mbn, aboot.mbn, etc). What can I do with these? Does this help anything with rooting?
you can study and reverse them to find an exploit used to root or unlock.
but you could have also done that with with partitions already posted for the other G5 models.
if unlocked and rooted the partitions would be used to make flashable stock zips n such.

I need the stock xxhdpi bootanimation.zip and shutdownanimation.zip of LG G2 D-802.

I am required stock bootanimation.zip and shutdownanimation.zip files of LG G2 D802 which are located in " /system/media ". If anyone is using D802 then kindly share these two files for me and others so that it could be used for other G2 variants also.
And I am also required PowerOn.ogg and PowerOff.ogg files of LG D802 which are located in " /system/media/audio/ui/poweron.ogg and poweroff.ogg ". Kindly share these two files also.
D802 user can use rootexplorer, rootbrowser, esfileexplorer or any other file manager which allows to access root directory to copy and share these files so that these could also be used by others. If you face any problem in finding these files then feel free to ask and upload these files to mediafire or google drive because these are more reliable however you can also use anyother file sharing service because it doesn't matter.
Thanks!

You can easily find these files off a kdz or a rom zip. You seem to know what you are doing as well so I don't really understand why you need other peoples help for this?

I can't give you any files because I don't have the device anymore but It'll be easier if you took them from one of the stock roms in the dev sections like somboons's rom. Extracting a kdz is a longer process, this post might help with that.

Moto g4 plus with software channel timbr dont'n work network after flash.

Hello, i have a xt1640 that after flash this firmware: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138 is without network, imei two is corrupted(is 60178888153A08) and radio not turn on. It is happening because my software channel is timbr? something related to baseband? Will I only be able to correct this if I pick up a device with the timbr software channel to backup and flash on in this phone? In the configurations it is recognized as moto g4 plus, the sensor of digital prints and wifi work, the only thing not working is the network.

Unfortunetly due to anti-rollback messures used by LG and Carriers, fixing a hard bricked G5 is essentially immpossible. It may be doable if your on Stock Marshmellow
