Thanks.

Velvet appena comperato: il comando "fastoot booŧ twrp-3.4.0-g900em-dom133.img" mi ritorna "BootImage is Incomplete".
Questo assieme alla impossibilità di estrarre il contenuto della rom stock (dal nome 10288, ma riconosciuta come archivio kdz) anche con LG_Firmware_Extract_v1.2.6.1 mi abbatte un poco. Mi sento a disagio col cellulare senza diritti di root.
Mi puoi aiutare?

Sorry, i wrote italian.
A new velvet: the command "fastoot booŧ twrp-3.4.0-g900em-dom133.img" generates the error "BootImage is Incomplete".
More, i cant extract the partitions from stock rom (named 10288, but still a kdz archive) with LG_Firmware_Extract_v1.2.6.1. Apparentely the format of the file has been changed by LG.
Frustratng. any help, please?
Thank you

that's nice... I am waiting for custom ROMs for this phone because that will be very nice for people that have the LG Velvet and they like customisations and custom ROMs like me.

Any chance for a GM900UM variant? I'd love to at least toss some of this bloatware from the phone.
