@jonsat,
Greetings from Athens/Greece. I have an unbranded Spanish G7.
I assume you have the USB debug enabled on your phone.
use lg bridge and ask it to perform the update. Once the update is found, it starts downloading the kdz. This is stored at
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\LG Electronics\LG Bridge\SWUpgrade\Image
Downloading takes sometime. Go to that directory and check the name of the file
Once this is done, it starts copying the kdz to your phone. This is the time to copy the kdz to another directory so you can work with it.
You can create a cmd file to do this copy, so you will not waste your time waiting for the whole file to be downloaded. This is the cmd I created.
This checks every 5 seconds if the file has been fully downloaded. Once it has been downloaded, it copies it to your home directory and exits.
Code:
echo starting
:begin
timeout 5
copy "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\LG Electronics\LG Bridge\SWUpgrade\Image\*.kdz" %USERPROFILE%\
if ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO begin
Wait for LG Bridget to finish the update and reboot the phone
To create the images yourself, you need LG_Firmware_Extract_v1.2.6.1 tool.
You select the kdz file, tick the dz file, then you press the "
Extract KDZ" button and wait for the extraction to finish.
Then you select the dz created at previous step.
Scroll down the second box and tick the file named boot something. Press the "
Extract DZ" button. This will get you the default boot.img.
(I hope you can see the second print screen as well)
Copy this boot.img to your phone
Open magisk manager. It should complain that magisk is not installed. Click install and select the zip file you uploaded. This will create the magisk_patched.img needed for your phone. Donwload it to your PC and then business as usual:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot_a magisk_patched.img
fastboot flash boot_b magisk_patched.img
fastboot reboot
Good luck
