Hi, is lg-firmwares.com a safe source? - AT&T LG G6 Questions & Answers

I installed LG g6 h87320i avc region. Themes look thrown together. Defaulted location to china. Not fastest is ok but...

If it seems like a bad idea... it probably is.

I've heard NO way to Reflash h871 stock

Welcome to XDA
Rooting and LG devices are not my expertise at all. Many here though that are skilled at it. Posting the thread in the LG forum probably work better.
Ask a mod to move it maybe; don't create duplicate threads.

Republic Wireless LG Optimus S System Dump and Boot IMG

The Republic Wireless version of the LG Optimus S has been around for a little bit now. I snagged a System dump and the boot.img from mine in the hopes that it would somehow be useful.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3825646/boot.img
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3825646/system.tgz
The team at Republic Wireless use a heavily modified version of CyanogenMod to make their VoIP service work. Maybe this could be useful to anyone looking to see how they did it, since as far as I know the RW devs never floated any of their work back upstream.
Might want to cross post
You might want to also cross post Android Central Optimus S forum thread. That's where I have seen the most ROMS and development for the Optimus S at.
Also linking in the LG Optimus, P500, V forums here at XDA might be good. No subforum for the S there but they are of the same family.
Was anybody able to get any using useful out of the dump?
Wondering this myself. For instance, if it is possible to flash a Sprint LG Optimus S with the ROM for BYOD? Or reflash your device to achieve stock?

[Q] Just a few questions!

Hi fellow G2 users!
Got my G2 a few days ago (I know I'm about a year late) but this phone seems awesome. Model is D802.
I did a lot of reading before doing anything and so far - I am on stock LG rom, rooted, installed TWRP with autorec, flashed a volume mod and installed xposed with g2 tweaksbox. So far I have nothing to complain about.
Anyway, now come the questions - my previous phone was a sensation, and to have that fully ready to flash, it required unlocking the bootloader, S-OFF, radio flashing and root.
1. Is there anything else I need to do here? This is my main question. I did a lot of reading before posting this or doing anything to my phone. I only do something once Im completely sure I know how.
2. I've read about flashing modems of some sort and came across this link - xda wont let me post links for the 1st 10 posts... Its a site like codefi.re/autoprime
Can someone please tell me what the 4 different versions of the D802 files are?
3. Any recommended ROMS/kernels that are absolutely brilliant? I know that all devs make great roms but with specifically battery life, STABILITY, and all the LG features (like knock on and the new message reply box thing and quickmemo, etc) I have heard a lot about Pardus. Might try that out soon if I dont get any other recommendations.
4. I read about Jishnu's camera mod. The links have been deleted from his thread. Is it okay to ask if anyone has a backup? I would like to try it if possible.
5. I read about Viper Sound Mod. Is there an updated method of installing this on stock rom? The thread I found seemed outdated and half the links were invalid
Nobody?
Depends on what you want. Have you researched aosp roms? All the things you looked up are fine. Tweaks for a ton will help enrich its use but to change to a complete different operating system is what you should try out if you want to see something different. Modems usually come with the rom. Make sure you flash the correct variant for your device.

Asking about root for Lollipop (a small community rebuke)

Hello guys,
at first I want to say that I am really happy to be a member of this community, where so many users from different countries with different devices come together
and conducting experience exchange. This community is really important for every G3 user, especially to be updated on latest software or to solve problems.
But what really drives me nuts is the ongoing asking about how to root Lollipop in every possible thread.
The answers are mostly the same, what makes this question (let it be a post or a thread) almost useless.
Not only that it annoys me if I am continuously reading the same things, it also makes the whole forum confusing and relevant informations may go missing.
Why we cant create a seperate thread for rooting Lollipop whereto all this issue regarding threads will get removed?
And let us be honest: If you are not able to collect knowledge about rooting from the already existing threads, you shouldnt do it anyway.
Sorry but that had to be said
Just my 2 cents!

Wrong section for your REBUKE. We have Mods who determine whats right or wrong to post and they delete or move threads accordingly.
This rant is a waste of time and space. IMO should be in the Q & A Section but thats for the moderators to decide.
The next big thing will be to ROOT the G3 in its Lollipop/ART state which is why you see this question asked everywhere.
whoever comes up with a way to do this is worthy of praise.
I think the hardest thing to do is 1) Tell everyone at once that it doesn't exist yet, and 2) Tell everyone once it's achieved!
Sticky's do not work, in this day and age where information is so readily and quickly available, most people will not read pages of Q&A, no point discussing it it just will not happen.
Would be nice if once root on stock is done, that a message could be sent to anyone who's posted keywords 'root' + 'stock' under the LG G3 forums. Maybe that's an app in itself. IFFFT + Pushbullet etc etc
I second that my man. RoOT me stock G3 xda
we want to do something about the root Lollipop, please let

Hi Friend,
Please try this thread that I just created: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-update-to-lollipop-root-bumpd-twrp-t3048845
...it's tested to be working fine for my LG G3 variant (D858HK). The steps are from this original thread; I just added an extra manual step (and my thread looks long because I tried to detail the step, with pictures).

[Request] Lg g3 d855!

Anyone able to port it to lg g3 d855?
I don t think that our g3 will never run sailfish os!:"(
I'm interested in porting to my LG G2, but to know how to program any of my teachers, and univewrsidad, are interested in free software, and good with my English'm in the middle point, trying to finish and guides in English make me dizzy and do not even know how to start.
They want to help me start the porting ....
See if someone guide me.
opensource.lge.com/osSch/list?types=ALL&search=d805
I imagine there are the driver of the phone, if I'm not mistaken.
Maybe if our LG g3 would get unlocked.
Sorry, due to clutter, port requests do not belong here.

H990DS roms and kernels

Hello all.
The h990DS is one of the very few phones that can take 2 sims and an SD card. It really has an awesome software.
But let's be honest, LG is terrible in both the updates and software departments.
Now that it has root, are there any roms or kernels that support the H990ds? the LG slow software and random lag are killing me.
Roms/kernels developers please add the h990ds support.
Thank you.

Admittedly there isn't much out there, but what there is is what you can find in the Development section of the V20 subforum. The closest thing I've seen to a H990DS kernel is in @emdroidle 's root thread. Someone posted their own fork of an updated kernel there, but I know he's currently working on bringing the 990DS kernel up to date and as stable as possible. That's probably the closest you're going to get for a custom kernel for now. As for ROMs, there's a few AOSP ones, but you lose 2nd screen functionality, at least until the guys in the 2nd Screen bounty thread have got it working (from what I've seen they're making solid progress) so for now, personally, I've opted for the latest stock ROM since I love the second screen.

I really hope rom developers start adding the h990ds to their support list.
Lg make really good hardware, but terrible software.
And we need the community to work on that for the h990ds.
