SO I have the ls995, i posted a while back on other threads of revocering my phone cause i flashed a d955 rom by accident. so anyway after a while of fixing i got it all back to stock, main problem was phone kept saying it was d955 in download mode so wouldnt take tot file, but got that ffigured out. Now after a bit trying to activate mobile data all i get is mobile radio off. theres a red x where the bars are. with sim in even. i triedthat phone info in the hidden testing menu but that says this app does not work on your device. I dont know where to go from there, any help is appreciated thanks
My suggestion is to use LG flash tool with universal dll file and ls995zv3.tot . that will correct the problem. I had the same problem with flashing of d950 on ls995 . Hope ? will help

Thanks for the reply, I however already did that tot restore twice, but you mention a universal DLL file, what would that be? I used the DLL that has ls995 in the name
Universal dll is a file that basically allow you to flash tot even if specific model is used. Lets say you have ls995 and you flash rom for d950 (like I did) so your flex act like d950,but if you try return to stock by flashing tot for ls995 it may not allow you to. It will say its a wrong model. Universal DLL allows lg flushing tool to overlook that and use that tot file. It seems to me that you have a wrong radio ,or something didn't flush quite good. In my opinion return to stock again using universal dll and ls995zv3.tot along as it flashes over 80% it should be good. I had somewhere saved that DLL file, so let me know if you can't find it I can PM it to you. Its called LGUP_8974.dll

yup, baseband is m8974A-AAAANAZM-2.0.20049.
DOing more reaserach could my efs partition be corrupt? Eventhough it says imei and stuff. I just dont get why the radio is turned of. Like when u got to network, sercie state it just says radio off. Could this be like a permanent hardware thing?
just to put this out there i do have another lg g flex same model and everything if need be
Hardware I don't think so and efs partition should be ok since imei shows correct. Why don't you do a nandroid backup from other flex and restore this one ? See if that helps just uncheck efs.
Sent from my LG-LS995 using Tapatalk
I would but that one isnt rooted/custom recovery yet. I can still do that, but just before, is it possible for you to send me a twrp backup of your modem? I can try restoring that, see if that helps. I guess i needto be on the latest update as well correct, to use yours? If you could I would greatly appreciate it
I'm on ls995zv9 with bumped twrp so that may not help you but I have saved zv3 and zv7 modems backups . Is that you want? What is your build number?
Sent from my LG-LS995 using Tapatalk
im on bumped twrp to, meaning from the freedom flex app right? I am on zv6 right now, i can update to zv7 thoough, can u send/post the zv7 one, Thanks so much man i appreciate the time
Ok I will do zv7,but how did you got to zv6? If you just factory restored from ls995zv3.tot ? From your baseband number looks like you are on zv9.Weird

Actually that problem you have is an EFS corrupted partition. I had that same problem. Im sorry if you sent me pm or something and I didnt answer been very busy lately. Will upload a backup today of boot/efs/modem. But make sure you backup your imei before all this cuz mine is bad esn.
Hey sorry for not responding, was at work the whole day yesterday anyway, so I restored @falcon8667 modern twrp backup but that didn't change anything still same baseband and still no radio. Thank you very much though for sending it to me. I even restored the boot backup but that didn't help. Also @Alex_XV6700 I thought it might be the efs through research but oddly my imei ESN and whatnot is fine even checked it on swappas checker thing. The baseband and all are still accurate. I'll send a screen shot when I get home. It just says in service state, radio off. And any app I try to turn it on with force closes. Could I try your efs backup then? I backed mine up. Thanks again for all your guys help
That may sound little stupid but can you turn on and off the airplane mode couple of times and reset the phone ?. Probably will not work but its a quick try. By the way do you have a sim card in there and if yes what carrier?
Sent from my LG-LS995 using Tapatalk
Yeah i tried that a few times didnt help, tried with the sim in and with it out. I do have a sim in it, its from sprint. The phone does recognize the sim being in there or not
Just do a nandroid backup from other flex and restore this one. It may save you a time. That just a suggestion

If you have a back up from when you first rooted it should give you the stock boot.img. Then flash the stock rom found in the dev section. Then using revotoolkit.apk reinstall stock recovery. Then gingerbreak to unroot. Then update to zv6 from the about phone area and you should be good to go.

I formatted my SD card recently, and kept my latest backup , but not my original
Is there anything I can do in regards to the boot.img?
Could someone be kind of enough to make a CWR zip file for me?
I'll even pay you $5 bucks or whatever sounds good.

My recommendation would be to flash this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1129117
If it gives you the option to update, perhaps you should try that, and it may unroot your phone.
As far as CWM, I doubt the clerks are going to play with recovery... (that's not a guarantee, however).
If you are really desperate and scared, you should use the VZW tool for reflashing the phone, but I AM NOT RECOMMENDING IT. The tool has been known to do bad things to phones that need expert help to undo if not done properly (not only that, it's a pain in the arse).
Can I flash the boot image from that nandroid?
I was going to use the tool to run the downgrade again but I keep getting errors that I was not getting when I first rooted the phone. Mostly .msi installer package errors when selecting the .tot file.
If its in there it should be fine. If not i can make a zip of the stock boot.img when i get home but it will be about 7 central time.

I don't think the boot image was included with the earlier ROMs. I *probably* have a few boot images from when I was working with Cubed on CWR, but I don't know which is which, and some of those actually can cause bricks. Boot image was p8? I don't even remember now.
As far as selecting the .tot file, it requires the support files... They come with the LGNPST Store & Lab... they would look like:
LGNPST_GenericModels_Ver_3_0_17_0.msi
I'm not positive which one is the right one as it's been a long time. Sorry this is vague, but I went through the process once, and then never again.
The person whose phone we recovered through this method had an issue after the flash where everything looked kosher, but the data would no longer work (no 3g, 4g, etc), and required Cubed's intervention to repair. So I haven't touched it since.
-mtmichaelson, thanks man, i'll just wait for you to be safe! I can wait. I'll buy you some brewski's.
-Majorpay: Yeah, I'm not too sure I want to play around with that program lol. It worked perfectly when I first rooted the phone, although I had to manually register the .dll but now it doesn't work at all.

I'm also curious what exactly it does. At 140k it isn't replacing very much. Does it just fix files related to booting?
Didnt run it because I'm on linux and my phone is fine, but looking at the batch file, it automates flashing the stock gingerbread rom and restores PDS via fastboot.
when I run it, it gives me AdbWinApi.dll error. any suggestions?
I ran this for ****s and giggles and it returns everything back to stock AT&T 2.3 while giving you options along the way of what exactly you wanna restore to stock? webtop, system,pds, wipe data etc. works perfectly! makes life easier really! Phone booted right up after running no problems! Thanks!

It restores your phone back to stock AT&T android via fastboot automatically. It also gives you the option to *fix* your pds partition.
It's also an alternative to RSD

Well, been trying but haven't been able to do anything with it. I mean I never used it before and seems like it needs to boot into fastboot mode which I haven't been able to do.
Is in any way possible to make the phone boot into that via usb cable with this software? I installed all requiered software including drivers but it never detected the phone in that (bricked) state, not even once. The phone turns a green light when u connect the usb without battery in, thats it.
I haven't found any solution yet, only seen ppl saying to buy a new one. Is this brick really that bad that there's absolutely no solution? And it all seems to be caused by lack of SBK as ive read on the net...
Well if there's any good news I would like to hear them

Does anyone have a backup of 6.893?
Typically I am very diligent, but somehow I forgot to make a backup of stock.
I have not switched to any other update. I have read through everything thoroughly and I apologize for failing to follow instructions. With 5 android devices and multiple flashes I have never missed this before. And I realized it as soon as I flashed TH3ORYS rom
From what I gather the easiest and most effective way to get back on track is to flash a stock 6.893 rom make a backup and move on from there.
I appreciate anyone's help!
I am also open to using this thread or creating one in delopment to post the stock roms of every version.

Not entirely true. His system will be back to 5.5.886, but his kernel/radio will be his previously upgraded 5.6.893. He is off the upgrade path until he gets the matching system file of 5.6.893. Only then can he continue updating. I just went through this exact thing, used the one step recovery, but went back to .886 and had to beg to find someone to send me a CWR back up of their 5.6.893, which got me back on track.
Oh yeah...nevermind. I completely thought you were wanting stock not the ota. That's what I get for speed reading.

Giving someone a backup made on your device or restoring a backup made on someone else's device is an extremely foolhardy proposition. You are cloning the Android_id from one device to the other, which means that apps that use it as an identifier will push and pull data from both devices without any intervention from the unknowingly affected user.

correct me if im wrong but, all we need is the system img right because im stuck with a hybrid
Does anyone know if restoring my 5.893 back up will work, or create a hybrid? I ask because I think it is the same radios?

Check your pms and please don't share in case there is some of my data still left in the backup. just download all the files and put them in a folder and put in your clockwork backup folder on your sd/ext, probably the best way is to restore with advanced restore and just restore system only.

I have really been through the ringer today. I started off this morning by noticing that I had no data at all. I was on 6.893 and TH3ORYROM 2.1 and have been for a few days with no trouble until today when I lost data. I tried everything to get it back, but nothing. I called VZW to make sure there wasn't a network problem in my area and they suggested that I try everything that I had already done (bat. pull, sim card re-register, turn off LTE radio, etc). When they couldn't fix anything, they wanted to transfer me to tier 2 tech support, but they apparently need to talk to me on a different phone so they can diagnose this one, but I didn't have access to another phone. So I decided I would try to flash one of the updates hoping it would reflash the radio file and wake it up. When I got home, I used the R3L3AS3DRoot to restore to stock and tried to install 7.893, but the update failed. I searched around and tried every method I could to get any of the updates to install, but nothing worked, still no 3g either. Eventually, in my desperate attempt to fix this myself I decided to wipe everything and start over. I wiped the webtop partition. I think that's what really screwed me up, because nothing else I did was any different that what I've done in the past. After wiping everything, I went back to the R3L3AS3DRoot and tried to run it. No matter which option I selected, it seemed to run fine, but I couldn't boot past the fastboot screen. I tried to fxz using RSD Lite, but every flash I tried failed. Then, in a panic, I came across P3's moto-fastboot method used to "get you back on the update path". I ran that and it freaking worked!! Then I figured I'd try to get up to 7.893, but I've tried absolutely everything I can find mention of and nothing works. Every install fails. I am getting some intermittent 3G now though. And to top it all off, I discovered that none of the nandroid backups I've made will restore and most of them don't even exist. I just discovered that I needed to check "use external storage" for the backups to take. I thought I had been covering my ass by making backups, but they weren't valid. Currently I have stock, rooted phone with an intermittent 3G signal. System Version 5.5.886, baseband CDMA_N_03.1C.57RLTEDC_U_05.15.02, kernel [email protected] #1, and build number 5.5.1_84_DBN-55. As I sit now, my plan is to see how it acts tomorrow and if I still have a lot of trouble with data, I will return it to stock unrooted and take it into a Verizon store and see if they will let me try a new SIM card. I don't really know what else to do at this point.
Guys,
I have two T-Mobile D959 which I updated to 4.4.2 using the D-Fuse Rom posted in the forums. I also have a sim unlocked D950 that I would like to update to 4.4.2 as well. It's currently rooted on JB with TWRP recovery. I've read that others have allowed the phone to update using the OTA update for KK on top of rooted JB and that allowed them to keep root. Since we have this phone on T-Mobile with a T-Mobile sim it hasn't popped up about any updates. I clicked on the manual update and it did not find any updates on the server, which I believe because it doesn't have a ATT sim in it. It's also frustrating because it only allows for manual update check every 24 hrs or so.
Does anybody have the OTA file? I'm thinking if I placed the OTA file in the main root directory that the phone should be able to find the file and ask to update itself. I've did this prior with some Motorola tablets. So far I don't see anybody with the OTA D950 posted. I know user hyelton has a zip file containing the tot file posted for D950 KK but its over 1gig and I believe the OTA update was only around 600 MB or so. Any help would be appreciated.

Yup I know where to get the .tot file, but if I use the LG flash tools and the .tot won't I loose the root? I'm thinking of it as the tot file is like flashing a fresh install and you loose any information previously installed. Maybe I'm wrong

Matt maybe I should of just installed the KK tot file and tried the new KK root that is posted on IOROOT thread. I've tried the KK method with one of my D959, but it wouldn't come up with the ADB method in the recovery as required so I had to restore it back to JB to root and add custom recovery and then install D-Fuses KK rom for that phone which is rooted.
I would hate to try a fresh install of KK as this phone as the phone is for my mom and I have it all set up already with apps and emails and what not. It would be the easiest if it would just update without having to redo all that stuff.
Its probably best that your moms has an unrooted phone. The user experience for someone that knows nothing about all this stuff we do to our phones is much better if its not rooted. And practically idiot proofed

Your right for the most part. The only issue I ran across is ATT puts a setting in that wont allow the tether app to work correctly on a none ATT simcard. When you would run the tether it would error out. I had to go in and change a setting in the settings.db file and make a change where att had something set as a 5 to a 0. Others had the same problem. On my D959 tether would work without any modification as my plan allows for 3GB of tethered data. I may just leave her on the rooted JB with TWRP recovery to be on the safe side till a custom recovery is available for KK on these phones.
Doesn't work. I've pushed it back into FOTA folder, same place I pulled it from. There must be some behind the scenes checks being done. No way to bypass the ATT servers either to "manually" force the update

OK this is beginning to annoy me greatly. I have the note 3 n900aucueoc1. My boss gave me this phone because it all of the sudden "broke". OK cool, a free phone I thought. Wrong. Not cool.
I figured out the problem has to be a screwed up efs folder because the phone won't read a sims card. The broadband version and imei are "unknown" and the Version is custom. Heres the weird part though. It isn't always custom. Once in a while when it's restarted it will load and it's version Will be official and everything seems to work.
The problem I am having is apperently, this phone cannot be rooted. I have no way to access and edit the efs folder. If it can be rooted please enlighten me because I've tried everything.
Any answers?? Help is GREATLY apprecitated!!
Hello. Your only choice for root would be a downgrade to 4.4.2, Install Towelroot, SuperSU, Safestrap & Busy box. If you want rooted 5.0 you'll need to flash Walter Whites rooted 5.0 OC1 using Safestrap.
OK awesome.. thank you.. I'm guessing the problem is the efs folder then? Now I just need to figure out how to downgrade. I'm sure there's a post on here somewhere about that lol.

In the general section there is a thread called "NC2 Odin files" or something like that... Download those.
Also, you don't need root to edit the efs... Download qpst and qdxm... I can't post a link but just google it
Awesome thank you. I found the downloads but it says it's for the galaxy s3. . Will it still work? Also why does my device switch from custom to official randomly.. like I said sometimes it works, or appears to anyways. Like right now the mode is in custom but everything appears fine.. is this a problem with the efs? Or something else entirely?
EDIT: OK wow I downloaded both of those but have no idea how to use them.. Google here I come. Answers to my other questions much appreciated.. I would think if my efs folder was messed up it would never work but why does it work sometimes and other times I get all unknowns?? Help please.
