LG G710EAW Partitions Corrupted
LG G710EAW Partitions Corrupted
(01-09-2022, 01:22 AM)urover Hello forum members!
I have an LG G710EAW (128G Dual-SIM). When I came to the US, I noticed that my international SIMs roamed fine on T-Mobile on the LG G7, but a T-Mobile SIM would connect briefly and go to emergency mode immediately.
After trying a lot of permutations and combinations with SIM cards, I decided to flash the T-Mobile LG G7 firmware (G710TM) onto it, thinking that would make T-Mobile "accept" this phone onto their network. I did this using LGUP software.
However, this totally bricked the phone and it only goes into EDL mode now. Initially, I could see the partitions in QFIL, but after more fiddling, I don't see any partitions either. I basically was trying to restore IMG/BIN files one by one onto the partitions, but somehow screwed it up.
I now have a totally bricked phone and I'm unsure how to restore it. Does anyone here know how to proceed ? Can a full backup of a working G710EAW in QFIL restore my dead phone? I understand IMEI numbers will need restoration as well, but my first priority is to get the phone to work.

Do you have a prior QFIL backup from this phone or any other of the same model?
(05-09-2022, 07:28 PM)urover Thank you for responding! Unfortunately, I do not. I've read that a QFIL backup from another phone can help, but I'm unsure of the steps, even if I did find a donor phone or a helpful stranger.

This article references your model https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide...e.4213851/
First, use the firehose to backup your fsc, fsg, modem and modemst partitions

(12-09-2022, 04:51 AM)urover I was able to finally recover my Lg G7. See my comment on XDA: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/solve...t-87422205. I was able to restore my S/N as well as both IMEI numbers.
However, after recovery, the second SIM slot isn't working no matter what combination and networks of SIMs I try (my household has a ton of variety). Only the primary functions.

Is there a single-sim variant of this model?
(15-09-2022, 02:53 PM)urover There is no single-sim variant of the G710EAW.
After a little bit more fiddling with partitions via QFIL, I have "succeeded" in locking the primary SIM as well. None of the SIM trays work for more than a few seconds.

Look for modem backups for this model and flash
