Nice gift!
My bootloader was locked before this update, and I did not attempt to unlock it. Download mode tells me the OEM lock is now unlocked. Please confirm! (I may be a dumbass )

Do you see the open padlock on the boot logo screen?

Yes. I don't think it used to on the old firmware. What is the verdict ?
EDIT: Misread. I do see a padlock, but it is locked !

Just noticed... "adb reboot recovery" and "adb reboot download" now work. They didn't work on the KD9 ROM the device came with.

Yay! They do work if you do a adb reboot from the shell, but anyway, that's history now.
If you see the open padlock, you're in business. Im guessing that ROM was not meant for general public... in fact, if it came from where I think it came from, it wasn't
EDIT: So it has the stock recovery menu as well? Can you possibly do a system/boot/recovery dump to save us the pain of Odin?

fastboot oem unlock
I love Samsung... now

No Chinese at all, what a pity......
is it android 3.0.1 or android 3.1?

My device (bought in a vodafone ita store) has P7100BUKDF ROM and was already unlocked.

Myeah I was able to flash root after flashing this firmware, so it does unlock, it appears.
EDIT: Someone on twitter confirmed this unlocked the bootloader for him as well.

Thanks, good to have you on board ;-)
Maybe you should mention that this wipes the ENTIRE device, so including the SD-Card (The internal one)
Edit: Seems like I've lost root..
(Duh.. Title: Stock Rom..)
Edit 2: Reboot Recovery results in a Andy and an Exlamation mark
Rooted it with the fastboot method

How do root this firmware ?
Thanks

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1079781 ?

any one know the difference between this one and stock rom? would be interesting to see if samsung changed anything.

Has anyone tried flashing with Heimdall in Linux?

As for the question about the difference with the original ROM I can tell that as mentioned in the first post more languages are supported.
The rest seems about the same as the previous rom.

Yes, it's also the only change I noticed from the stock room, but in my case is great since now it supports Portuguese (my native language).

I just unlocked my bootloader following your steps. It shows unlocked when booting back up but now it is not recognized by my pc when connecting through usb. I tried rebooting both pc and tablet. I also tried uninstalling the drivers from Samsung and reinstalling it but still no go. I have a Galaxy Tab 10.1v from Google I/O and the usb is gone. I cannot even charge from usb now. Are the files posted the correct ones for this device because it is not working. Does anyone have the correct ones? Any help would be appreciated.

The Google I/O Tab as far as I know is not a 10.1v, thus you shouldn't be using these files on it!

Yeah I figured that out now. I was following the root guide and I thought I was supposed to use this. Everything seems to work but the usb. But I can still connect to Odin and reflash. Is there anyway to get it back?

How to unlock BOOTLOADER and Install any zip file on your LG NEXUS 5 D820 using CWM

************
First, I am not responsible if you damage your phone in any way.
Also you might back up your phone's data completely because after unlocking bootloader you can lose all your installed data.
*************
So, first step is unlock the bootloader. First go into
Setiing> About Phone > Press Build Number A couple of time until it shows you are a developer now > go back > Developer Options > Turn on USB debugging.
After that, go to your bootloader, by powering off your phone and once it is powered off press the Volume down key + Power button until something appears with a vibration.
Now download adb and fastboot from this link:
http://*******/1Zsyme
After downloading it, install it. And you can install it easily with no problem. Just make a folder in your windows drive of :
C:\Android-adb\
And you are good to go.
Now goto that folder (C:\Android-adb\) and press SHIFT+CTRL+RIGHT-CLICK together or just SHIFT+CTRL first and then RIGHT-CLICK and then click "open command window here".
Now connect your nexus 5 and check if your PC makes a sound like when you connect a external device.
If yes, then you are good to go. Else try connecting it several times to automatically make the PC install any drivers.
After this, go to that DOS type window and write:
fastboot devices
(press enter to activate any command)
If you it shows a serial number then you are doing fine.
After this, write this command in that CMD.exe window:
fastboot oem unlock
and wait until something pop-ups in your phone. It might be a warning, read it carefully and using your volume up or down key cycle through the options and using power button select yes. And it might reboot on it's own else restart manually by pressing the power button for 10 or 15 sec until you see your screen with a unlocked lock which means you have successfully unlocked the device.
Now after that, it's finally time to FLASH recovery file.
For this to happen you need to download CWM latest version from here:
http://*******/1Zt1Fs
It's latest for HAMMERHEAD or NEXUS 5!!!!
Now, again go to the bootloader as described in the beginning.
Now you can also copy the recovery zip file by your data cable of your phone by turning in on normally and also from bootloader.
How to do it from bootloader? Here's how too.
Now you have to be on the bootloader screen. Now goto the same CMD.exe and write:
adb push filename.zip /storage/emulated/0/
adb push filename.img /storage/emulated/0/
If you get any error ask me.
Now it might get some time to be moved to that.
(Data Cable should be attached to do so, also the RECOVERY img file should be in C:\Android-adb\ this folder to be moved to PHONE)
Now, you might have successfully moved the zip file to your phone. So now write this command to flash Recovery.img file:
fastboot flash recovery your_recovery_image_name.img
After this, it will FLASH the recovery file. Until it's installed successfully wait till then.
Once it is FLASHED, now cycle to recovery mode using volume buttons from the BOOTLOADER and wait till it gets there:
Now you will see some options, but you need to flash a zip file so cycle again using volume buttons and select anyone using power button. So select:
install zip
Now select choose zip from /sdcard
Now you are in your internal storage's directory where you moved your zip files from CMD.exe. Just select it and you are done. go back and reboot system now. And you are done.
Don't forget to say thanks if you find it helpful in any way.
Also report to me if you get any errors between in it. By the way, I didn't have any errors in my journey to do this in first time.

You should point out and highlight that unlocking the bootloader will wipe all data.

You do not need USB debugging for fastboot, you do not need to open fastboot or adb within the directory they are install in, you...
There are already guides, which are more accurate and up to date, to direct people through the process. Who uses CWM?

TWRP not worked for me. I use and recommend CWM. TWRP is full of bugs and does not show errors and hangs. But CWM is the best.

Thanks. I did mentioned but didn't highlight.

Except for the fact that CWM is out of date and not maintained for our device.

What is the point of this thread? Isn't this all common knowledge?

Google says you need to hold VOL UP, VOL DOWN, and POWER to boot into fastboot, but I've used just VOL DOWN and POWER on my N5.
fastboot oem unlock has been superseded by fastboot flashing unlock, though it still works for the N5.
You can download the Android ADK CLI tools from https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html . Always point to the authoritative source.
You'll need to be in the \platform-tools directory UNLESS you add it to the PATH.
So far's I know, ADB will not push a file while you're in fastboot. You can just flash the recovery file from the directory you have it, e.g. fastboot flash recovery .\your_recovery_image.img.
Very nice of you to post, OP, but you've got a few things wrong in your guide. Read some others to find your errors, and keep writing, Android needs informed enthusiasts and writers.

Yeah, it's 2016. Why was this thread even made? It's either common knowledge, or there are a hundred other guides about doing this.
Plus, who the hell uses cwm these days? Twrp or don't waste your time.
This whole post feels like something from 4 years ago.

It's outdated, no updates. Last I heard some of the CWM team are now contributing to TWRP. It's pretty much the official unofficial Android custom recovery at this point. You will also have a lot of issues trying to flash or update on older versions of TWRP or other recoveries that aren't updated due to file structure changes in newer Android versions.

I see the light. CWM team seem to have abandoned Helium, too; no longer works on systemless root. That's second or third app they've simply gotten bored with and not continued development.

[STOCK][M][TMO] Guide H811 20i & 20o Bootloader Unlock + Root + TWRP

Note : This guide is for H-81120-I & H-81120-O the latest update any firmware version below it will cause hard-brick so be careful before attempting anything, i wont be held responsible.
As a user with less knowledge about Commands and all, i was searching for answers by reading threads here and there and found my answers though some time tricky and sometimes easy.
Also in reading those threads i found many fellow members stumble upon resulting Soft bricks and in some cases a Hard brick or can say making their beloved G4 a paper weight.
So i thought i must put some really easy steps in order to clearly guide people like me who are too noob to understand the sophisticated developers steps.
Another reason for this Thread is also i saw many people asking about how to etc after updating to 20-O update for our H811 MM.
Few things to Prepare before Start
1- Properly Install Drivers for your H811 Variant of G4, cant find them Install LG Bridge.
2- Read the Whole thread before starting anything.
3- Confirm that all requirements are full filled and your variant is capable of everything mention in the OP.
4- Enable Developer Option then inside it enable OEM unlock and Usb debugging.
5- Always use Command prompt as Administrator.
6- Make a folder name G4 and paste all the file required for the unlocking in it for easy access and remembrance.
7- For Safer side after unlocking the bootloader boot into TWRP from fast boot and do not install TWRP.
8- Flash your SuperSU after that boot into android and see if all works.
9- Again Via Fastboot boot into TWRP make a backup of everything working fine. Boot into android.
0- Again same Via Fastboot boot into TWRP and now install your TWRP image via TWRP install function. So if by any means this is the culprit you can still revive your phone via your backup.
Attachments to Download
1- Adb Package can be found Here.
2- Download the latest TWRP.img 3.0+ from Here . This file needs to be on your computer and external sdcard.
3- Download the latest SuperSu zip (2.67+) from Here [Thanks to Chainfire] and stick on external sdcard as well.
Since downloading is complete now simply unzip the adb folder (containing fastboot by default) and paste both the TWRP image file and SUPERSU zip inside it.
Now Hold Shift and Open Command prompt here.
1- Input command to see if your device is visible in ADB.
Code:
adb devices
if you see your device and the status is off line then there will be a prompt on your G4 screen waiting for approval, accept it and input same command now all will be fine.
2- Now input below commands one by one. ( All credits to Autoprime )
Code:
adb reboot bootloader ( This will reboot your device to Fastboot mode )
fastboot oem unlock ( This will wipe all your data )
fastboot getvar unlocked ( This will check your bootloader status: Should be successful )
fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-0-h811.img ( Phone boots TWRP ) Please put the full file name with .img extension or it wont work.
3- Now the Phone should be in TWRP install SuperSU from there which you have already pasted inside your external SD card.
4- Reboot to system and see if SuperSU is installed. In some cases First flash of SuperSU does not work if your case is same the again boot to Fastboot and from there boot into recovery, since your bootloader is unlocked no need to repeat the unlock OEM command.
5- Now for safer side follow the steps 7, 9, 0 mention in Preparation heading above.
Hopefully all will be in your favor.
Useful Links if you still fail

Disclaimer: Nothing in this thread is my work, if i have missed any credit please do let me know i will add. I know several guides are available for same purpose so if any body finds it offending any rights can ask the moderators to remove this thread. The purpose only is to guide simple people like me to save their devices from getting bricked.

As by reading the thread many people are falling for permanent TWRP installation as its mention in the OP anyways for people not getting permanent Recovery follow below:
Boot to TWRP from fastboot Bootloader
When recovery comes up click Install >>>> then in the right below corner you ll see a tab for IMAGE >>> press it browse the recovery IMG which you stored in your SD card >>> swipe to flash >>> From asking where to install >>> select recovery >>> DONE.

Indeed needs to be in both but needs to be in the same Folder as Fastboot file, if not wont work.
beside will be cool if you add a NOTE about if they are in 20o they must stick with 20o base roms, if not they'll get Hard-Brick.

Guys,
If I read it right:
LG G4 must be on 20o (stock) to follow this instruction.
If it’s on 20i or below, it must be updated to 20o (OTA or whatever) first!
It might be obvious for you, but not for me.
Again, but better be safe, then sorry.

problem with fastboot
Hi,
I am a newbie in xda. I am trying to root and install TWRP into my lg g4. I am using software version H81120o. I checked enable OEM unlock and USB debugging. I have downloaded lg driver though lg bridge and all the files from the post. However, I got two problem while installing the twrp-3.0.2-0-h811.img.
1st problem (stuck here and need to reboot also not showing h811 on "the list of devices attached" after typing command "adb reboot bootloader"):
C:\Windows\system32>adb devices
List of devices attached
LGH811xxxxxxxx device
C:\Windows\system32>adb reboot bootloader
C:\Windows\system32>fastboot oem unlock
...
FAILED (remote: Already unlocked)
finished. total time: 0.012s
C:\Windows\system32>fastboot getvar unlocked

finished. total time: 0.004s
C:\Windows\system32>fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-0-h811.img
cannot load 'twrp-3.0.2-0-h811.img': No error
2. 2nd problem(stuck here and need to reboot):
C:\Windows\system32>fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-0-h811.img
< waiting for device >
I checked online this problem might do with driver not up to date. Under device manager, my lg g4 is recognized under android device with android bootloader interface.
What should I do now?
Thanks you for helping:fingers-crossed:

This Root-Method worked like a charm... The only issue I'm running into is for the TWRP recovery to actually stick. When i manually reboot into recovery I get the little android guy with his chest open and the red triangle with the "!" in the middle.....am I doing something wrong by any chance??

I did everything but can't seem to get TWRP installed

Thanks a lot for this write up. I have been trying for about 2 weeks to root my g4 and it worked finally, So many thanks to you

same problem here but I just now got it working...sort of . I still can not make anything come up except the factory data reset when I use the phone volume and power button.
I thought it might be just that I wasn't coordinated enough so I downloaded this small app to do a recovery reboot.
After I installed the app and used it, I got the little android guy with his chest opened with the red triangle. I took out my battery, put it back in and booted my phone with the power button.
I then connected my phone to computer via usb and went back into adb and opened TWRP and installed the twrp-3.0.2-0-h811.img again but this time I looked around a little more first, and noticed a setting to either install in boot or recovery partition. I selected recovery partition (neither were selected) and installed it. Now I can boot to TWRP recovery with the app I installed but still nothing but factory data reset with the volume and power buttons. I can live with this for a while until I can maybe find a solution.

I had the same issue but when u get into twrp make sure the IMG is in your SD card and to permanently have twrp installed go to home and press install.. Choose from image and install hope this helps

In regard to booting into TWRP recovery with just the power and vol buttons, I just read this on another thread:
It boots into what appears to look like a default LG G4 factory reset page. For me, i clicked reset, and then yes, and surprisingly it brought me to where i wanted to go. TWRP Recovery.
I tried this and it worked for me as well.
I had been there before and tried it and it did a factory reset after I had spent an hour or two tweaking my phone, I was not a happy person. This time I did feel almost positive I had TWRP installed correctly and did not have nearly as much time spent getting things set up like I want them on my phone...It was still scary pressing that reset button and yes button.
If you don't have TWRP (or maybe some other recovery) installed it will factory reset your phone. I just thought I would share this and what happened with me. Do it at your own risk.

TWRP, Root, Xposed k4 note with 6.0 M.M simple and 100% success with all files in 1.

Hi friends today I am going to tell you how to root k4 note which have Android 6.0 (M.M).
Many members have already given this process but in some place the needed files are missing and some other place the process is not explained clearly. So to slove this I have made all in one file and given the process as simple as possible by me.
This process have worked very fine for me. Rooted 8 k4 notes without any problem.
Read all and follow. And do it on your own risk. I am not responsible if anything go wrong.
First of all I would like to introduce myself ( I know it's not necessary but to some of them to believe my work )
Myself is Kaushik. I have been using XDA since 2 years but never opened an account and replied in posts. Now after learning a lot I thought I should also start replying. May be I am a junior member here but not truly a junior member.
I have flashed more then 250 mobile of all brands. And thanks to XDA my success rate is 99.7 %
Thanks to XDA to making me local gadget guru. Now here every one believe that if even service center also fail to slove some software problems but at last kaushik will surly pass.
OK now let's see how to root.
(This will void your warranty)
(Phone will factory reset, which means all of the apps and data will be gone, not the internal sd)
(To root Lenovo K4 note you need to first unlock the bootloader. See below to know how to do it )
1. First download the two files from the links I have given.
All files needed to install twrp and root are in one zip file. Link is below.
https://mega.nz/#!D8MAwSzK!BYSzl4FGE_dbLy5wwzS0lbwSSNbelB7eMmfwdQjDoos
Usb ADB drivers for k4 note. Link below.
https://mega.nz/#!281yHDoI!iuIynHRqf8ui7IffStBhwrJvHJ4NBn1eExy_MYpr13o
Now to unlock bootloader.
2. Now in your mobile go to 'Settings' / 'About Device' / press 7 times on built number to unlock Developer options.
3. Now go to Developer options and click on 'OEM Unlocking' and press enable.
4. Next enable the USB debugging.
Your bootloader is now unlocked.
Now in PC extract the downloaded files
5. Install lenovo adb drivers ( it is in the link I have provided ) on your pc
6. Go to adb folder and press and hold shiftkey and right click with mouse. Select open command from here.
7. type adb reboot bootloader You need to authorize the pc if not done already. (The phone will boot onto fastboot, you can see small fastboot written on the left corner of the screen once the phone boots)
8. Now open adb folder and open 'unlock_bootloder'. A message will be displayed in mobile to press volume up key to continue. Press volume up key. A message in pc cmd will display as press any key to continue. Now press any key.
9. Now in cmd type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
A message will be displayed as done.
Next part is very important
10. After its done press volume up and down button together with power button. Once you see the lenovo white screen, release the power button, release the volume keys once the screen goes black, wait for few minutes till you boot into the new custom recovery.
To avoid black screen set brightness below 30 in twrp settings. ( Not so important if don't understand how to do it )
11. Now the recovery allow modifications by just swiping and the goto mount and tick system and go back
12. Now go to advance, then file manager, then system, and delete the file named, recovery from boot.p ( if you are facing problem plz see point 14. )
13. After done do back and flash supersu.zip. (it is in the link which I have provided)
Now you phone is rooted and the supersu app will appear in the app drawer.
14. If you are facing problem with file manager flash aroma file manager ( it is in the link ). It will open in twrp. Now go to system and delete recovery from boot.p.
If you do not delete the said file again stock recovery will be replaced. If it happens so again you must repeat the steps from step 1.
Next to install xposed after boot up install xposed.apk (app is in the link)

HELP ! Fastboot doesn't recognize my device
s230 update brought a lot of issues thus I downgraded to s218 & now on s219. I am able to get adb to recognize my device but not fastboot. Therefore I am unable to unlock bootloader!
When I type in " adb reboot bootloader" or click on the "unlock_recovery.bat" file provided, I get booted into a dark screen where "fastboot" is written at the bottom left & the command prompt window says < waiting for device> & I am stuck there until I reboot my phone.

I got the same problem. I found out the recovery file he linked to was that of a single SIM Nokia 1 (TA-1060) mine is a Dual Sim Nokia 1 (TA-1047)
I downloaded the TA-1047 original firmware (I googled it)
I used it to reflash boot and recovery. Then redid everything using this time the right original recovery.bin from the TA-1047 firmware and it worked

Android Downgrade
I'm planning to buy this phone but I don't like the software. Can I install Android Kit Kat on it?

Hi! I have soft-bricked Nokia 1 ta-1047(recovery bootloop). How can i unlock bootloader without checkin OEM unlock in dev settings? Thks!

Hi! I had some trouble understanding the instructions. Step 1 worked without a hitch but I ran into some problems in step 2. I'd be really grateful for some help.
Do I copy the text in the link, paste it into a .txt file and then save it to "ftsab.mt6735" in the Minimal And Adb Fastboot folder on my pc?
Do I press cancel when twrp asks me for a password? Or do I need a password? I pressed cancel.
When I go into "mount" in twrp and click on "vendor" do I then go the command window on my pc (from the adb fastboot folder) and type "adb push fstab.mt6735 /vendor/etc/fstab.mt6735"? This is what I did and it might have come with an error I'm not sure.
What is the backup of boot for? I guess it's just a safety measure. For some reason I couldn't do that because it said something about encyption (I think, unless I'm getting mixed up with before) so I had to skip that step and go onto flashing the recovery. The instructions now say "flash stock recovery as boot (you can get stock recovery from here)". Is the stock recovery the "recovery.bin" file and do I put that in the adb and fastboot folder? I did that and typed "fastboot flash recovery recovery.bin" in the command window. Was that right or not?
The instuctions say "restart the system" Is that from the twrp menu? I restarted the phone via twrp but it didn't restart into stock recovery it restarted into the normal operating system. I knew then that I'd done something wrong. I then turned off the phone and tried accessing the stock recovery by pressing the volume up and power on and it started in twrp! Am I getting confused? Please can someone help me! Thank you!

If you're phone booted fine into system and you can access twrp then just flash magisk as you've done ok and the phone and twrp are working

How to "flash stock recovery as boot" ?
How to "flash stock recovery as boot" ? I went to fastboot mode and flashed recovery.bin then rebooted to recovery and it showed "no commands". No options were there.

Thanks. But I'm still not sure. I confess I'm a novice. I actually ended up bricking my phone because I went on to do something wrong. I'll get another phone this week to try and root again, hopefully successfully this time. Isn't the step to make a backup of the boot really important because we have to flash that boot near the end? I thought it was necessary. I also wonder whether I should have typed "fastboot boot recovery.img" instead of "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" because the instructions say "flash stock recovery as boot"? Edit: Perhaps I'm wrong again

Did you manage to get a backup of the boot?

I can have no access in the udev/ etc.... Can you please explain the following steps how to do it? is it a linux command that needs to be done on a linux running computer or does it works on Windows too?
i was indeed happy that it completed the backup to my external SD Card made with Magisk a patched boot image, but doesn't seem to be rooted after all, what next? it says every time Magisk is not installed do i have to flash it in minimal ADB
Sincerely

Rooting this for now is a gamble there is only 1 stock ROM to flash and it's for the UK single SIM varient of the Nokia 1 only thing you can have is root and twrp and maybe flash a gsi but most of them are still buggy if you can flash stock and stay that way untill further development.

Hi, try holding the power button for a few seconds and then releasing it and pressing volume up.
For the record, I managed to root my ta 1060 phone. Thanks everyone. I think I had a problem initially because twrp asked for a password due to phone encryption and I ignored it. I managed to bypass that password screen by not rebooting after flashing twrp, instead going straight into twrp and following the instructions.
I've now got a problem getting usb otg to work. I've added the files android.hardware.usb.host.xml, handheld_core_hardware.xml and tablet_core_hardware.xmls. It's showing as enabled in all the app checkers but Usb Otg Helper says E: Mount directory could not be created, E: This app will not work, OTG mass storage not supported?, NTFS write support failed(no fuse). That's not a topic for here though. If anyone can help, can they pm me please

No, when I found it asked for a password I realised I shouldn't have rebooted the system and so I wiped the data and flashed twrp again and no more password.

My TA-1066 is basically dead. Unlocked, doesn't boot into recovery, flashing the ROM fixed it last time this happened. Now it doesnt. In a bootloop with the NOKIA logo.
Help would be really appreciated.
