[LG-H901] Stock ROM, Rooted, with Busybox

[sonofskywalker3]

Thanks to Mikeyinid and TheJesus for providing the stock img files and flashable recovery zip. I used them more than once on my own device, and got frustrated at having to re-root it every time. To speed things up I decided to create a pre-rooted zip with busybox installed.

Feel free to use it as you see fit. If you format /system before you install this TWRP will warn you that there is no OS installed, but it's wrong, it will boot.

Flash this via TWRP, no wipe should be needed, but it can't hurt.

Forgive the stupid question, but this isn't a flashable stock ROM is it? New to LG so I'm not wanting to jack my phone up stupid.

No problem, it is flashable, almost stock. Check this thread for full stock, without busybox or root if you want to take an OTA update or something.

Almost stock? Are you saying this only because it has root and busybox? It does not overwrite recovery, correct?

Appreciate the answer sir. Thanks.

yes, exactly. I'm just trying to be clear that it is not completely stock because there have been additional files added to the system image. It will not overwrite recovery, only reflash the system and boot partitions.

This is for the h901 which is the Tmo variant just fyi. So yeah you are good.

WiFi calling works fine. The only thing that breaks it sort off is installing xposed and that only breaks it if you don't have LTE at all. If at home you can use WiFi but it has to see LTE signal as well. If you are In. area with no LTE or if airlane mode on with just WiFi on it wont work.

You have to unlock your bootloader first by sending commands over adb after booting into fastboot then you'll have to download the twrp file and flash that over the stock recovery using adb again

just follow this link style right ?

 

[Warrior1975]

Here is the link to the bootloader unlock/recovery/root thread.

I didn't use the nexus kit, I just installed the adb and fastboot drivers manually. Instructions are in the link I pasted. When installing the drivers, install them system wide, makes it a little easier. Also, download drivers for LG G4.

Shouldn't cause harm.
But it is always good to do a clean flash

I have to say this worked, unlocked and rooted, adb fastboot all worked great,. Thank you

 

[guitardedhero]

Would anyone be so kind as to zip up the following two folders and share the links with me?

/system/lib

/system/vendor

Many thanks in advance! :good:
