    Thread Confirm hashes of KDZ files

    I bought a replacement V20 from China. It was sold as new but it's definitely been opened. Is there any way to pull an image off it and compare it with a known good one? I'll probably reflash it anyway to be sure, but it'd be nice to confirm. It reports its version as VS9951BA. I've grabbed...

    I recently acquired a Verizon-branded LG V20 (VS995) and I my eventual goal is to put TWRP and LineageOS on it like my last phone. The first step is to downgrade it to a vulnerable stock image using UPPERCUT. However, I'm finding that LGUP is unable to begin to perform the flash. My...
