Made a complete ZVA dump

[thjubeck]

Any idea how to dump the PRL? QPST 2.7.460 crashes when I try to read the info from the phone. LGUP might be able to do it with the proper LS992 DLL, but I can't find one that works.

download the demo version and you can do most things you need. I used to change prls a lot until my carrier switched to RUIM, since then had no luck with it.

I saw a post somewhere about making your own kdz, let me see if I can find it again. We were able to get a downgrade working as far back as ZV8.

Finally got into LAF mode but not sure how the tool from @jcase worked but they may have used the backdoor I found for LAF mode.

What methods have you tried because I found a few methods but don't want to just start sending you things you have tried.

I researched and attempted sd card boot played with qfil a little but dont have the partition or raw .xmls. I got the .elf that is suplied with qfil but nothing to flash with. Started researching alcatels 9008 and fastboot flashing but nothing there.

I will accept any methods, I might see something or try something mixed new.

Working on a mixed solution based on https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/guide-fixing-hard-bricks-t3403868 . Trying to figure out how to make a partition xml file.

so yeahh... it is possible https://androidforums.com/threads/guide-how-to-create-partition-xml-gpt.1125433/ . Can try that but it would take a bit of work. You also need someone on sprint userdebug to get the partition sizes or contact Bigcountry907 on that forum about calculating the sizes of each one.

It used the publicly known laf flashing feature/backdoor, that we reversed engineered ourselves, including the new auth crypto handshake.

To be honest, I don't want to try to go through the trouble of trying to find out how to do that if someone has already been down that path. On the new bootloader you have to soft brick the device to get LAF to answer. I looked through the LAF partition briefly and have not been able to figure out how ya'll got that to work yet. Is there any chance you would let some other people have the information about the tool so that we can continue development. All credits given where deserved without having to worry about trying to support the tool. Not trying to take anyone's property or ideas I would just like root for this device and possibly the G6 as it seems to have the same issue. PM me if this is an option.

Sorry, due to past drama, I don't do public sharing of sLG stuff. It goes to my forensic clients. Just not worth the hassle. Not you, but other ppl previously.

Hi, I have LS992 android 7.0. I am fedup of my OS and want to switch to MIUI or other lighter ROMs. If you have reached a solution. I can pay you for that to unlock my device. I can pay you to make it opensource if you like, I know you have worked hard and want a return of your time. Kindly email me both prices. ponatica4 (at) gmail (dot) com

There is no unlocked bootloader for ls991. No root no romz. No Twrp.
Better get a diffrent device if thats what you want.
