You might wanna hold off for a little bit. I have forwarded the kdz, my kernel and a few other things to a dev. He said he was going to build an autorec app for us so we can install twrp 2.8.7 on lollipop. I'm gonna wait for that so I can flash xposed for lollipop and try tweaksbox and gravity box. I'm praying it works out. I just sent him the stuff yesterday so it might take a little time to build but I'll keep you posted.
You cannot on most LG devices. For V700 and V400 you have to be on kitkat then you can use flashify to flash the bump twrp img. The recovery is bumpd which is a way of signing the image so the bootloader recognizes it as an official LG img so it will boot it. It will not work on lollipop though as LG has gone out of their way to patch bump.
Well, I tried to use an autorec a dev on xda had made as a test to see if we can downgrade the aboot and laf to kitkat while retaining the lollipop boot, kernel and modem. Bad news is, it hardbricked my device. Yup, it made it to where p.c.'s will not recognize it at all therefore I cannot even flash a kdz. I have to attempt to send it in under warranty now. The dev used the same technique he uses to flash twrp on the LG G3 lollipop roms and apparently the tablets are completely different. I guess we live and we learn. Looks like the only way we're ever going to have twrp for our device is by using kitkat so it looks like we probably wont even see custom roms for our V700 either. If LG does decide to warranty my tablet I am just going to sell it for cheap and get a nexus tablet. I'm very dissapointed with LG right now.
I updated also and tried every root method available but LG patched the download mode exploit with latest update so root is unobtainable.
You're telling me. I sent my V700 in for warranty repair because I bricked it being a guinea pig for a developer and it came back with 20b on it. I have tried 5 different LG root methods with no luck. Not sure it's rootable.
Oh boy, I just received yet another nonrootable update. This one is 20c. Still android 5.0.2 abd doesn't bring anything new. Must be security patches.
Yeah that's what I was thinking. It was a 2 part update that wasn't really big and the android version is still 5.0.2.
