[v500][CWM Advanced Edition] PhilZ Touch
- Thread starter Phil3759

Thanks for your great work, but i have problems to install the 6.19.7 Update, i think it is because of loki.
I used the 6.12.8 with the patched file from PaY87, that worked for me. Is there any other possibility?
I managed to do it by pushing files in .zip to the device and running scripts manually.

Should be possible to update from other / older recoveries with auto-loki during flash of zip

The easiest way is to install TWRP with loki, method found on TWRP thread then install PhilZ. Don't forget to enable auto-loki.
its says that "Loki aboot version does not match device." the same when i tried flashing TWRP.. maybe because my g pad is V50020a and the recovery that they comes with the zip is for V50010a..
The recovery.img is not for a specific software version of your device. The loki script extracts your current original aboot partition and uses that to make a specific encoded recovery image with the .lok extension. The lok file is then used to flash your recovery partition that was encoded with your specific aboot partition. The aboot partition never changes.
Edit: the aboot might need to be downgraded if it is patched to not work with the loki_tool. You can verify if your aboot is still supported by loki_tool by trying to patch the recovery to make a lok recovery file.

Looking for a little help, here.
Never had an issue like this before. I was running LRS 2.5 did a factory reset. Ended up in a boot loop. FInally got to PhilZ recovery and tried to flash a new ROM(tried several) but all I can ever do is reboot to recovery. Tried Philz, CWM and TWRP 2.8
Any help appreciate.4
Uupdate:
Never mind, still no idea what happened, but was able to use the LG tool to return to stock. phew

Still can't get to TWRP
I do the button push and get to a screen that says: HARD FACTORY RESET. I push the power button twice and still get the error secure boot error, certification error at the top of the screen.

I know on some configs you must wait a few minutes after the "Hard Factory Reset" screen is still present. It should eventually open TWRP...

You should update to a newer recovery, like TWRP 2.8.7.1 if you don't want TWRP 3.0.0, which is not perfectly stable, as some users said in the TWRP thread. This recovery is a little outdated and it does not seem that it will be updated any time soon.

9CWM Recovery and Root Bundle for LG G Pad 8.3 V50010a
For all LG G Pad 8.3 V50010a owners who want to flash this great recovery directly without TWRP, I made a bundle with loki patched PhilZ Touch recovery 6.12.8 for V50010a only.
If you have a different G Pad than V50010a you have to patch the recovery by yourself first (checkout https://github.com/djrbliss/loki/blob/master/README.txt how to do that).
I also added a updated root package with latest superuser.apk and su binary in case the device is not rooted yet.
Code:--------------------------------------------------- Requirements to flash recovery: --------------------------------------------------- 1.) If not done yet, your LG Gpad must be rooted before flashing recovery image (use root.bat inside root_gpad-updated folder) 2.) You need fastboot and adb on your PC to flash recovery image 3.) ADB Debugging must be enabled on your LG Gpad --------------------------------------------------- Usage: --------------------------------------------------- Open a terminal and execute the following commands inside recovery folder. adb push recovery-image-name.lok /data/local/tmp adb push loki_flash /data/local/tmp adb shell su chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/loki_flash /data/local/tmp/loki_flash recovery /data/local/tmp/recovery-image-name.lok adb reboot recovery --------------------------------------------------- -The End- ---------------------------------------------------

ok first of all is that the message you get http://i42.tinypic.com/5n7psj.jpg ? I get this message every time i boot into recovery (i have twrp atm) and it's normal, it means that loki is working. Now about the key combo, it works and you can enter recovery, it's a little tricky though. Keep pressing the vol down (you will keep it pressed down until the end ) and then keep pressing the power button. When the lg logo appears release the power button only for 0.5 or 1 second and then press power and vol up at the same time (so you are actually pressing all 3 buttons). It works, it just need some practice.
Did you actually manage to flash philz touch recovery? What recovery you have now?
In case you want to use adb just download and install minimal adb ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2317790 ) if you dont want to mess with google's sdk tools. Put loki_flash and recovery.img inside the folder where you have installed adb, press shift+right click->open command window here and follow the instructions from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2551499 . Plz also make sure to replace twrp.lok with the name of the recovery you want to flash, in this situation its recovery.img. Its a very easy process and loki wont let you flash the recovery.img if it isnt suitable for your tablet.3Screen bug with blue stripe on the right side of the screen see image below
