I just want to pose a question:
My volume down button has been broken (peculiar build quality of these things ), but to the best of my current knowledge i'm safe. In CWM recovery i can always loop in the scroll to make the right decisions and to reach "fast boot" i don't need to use the "volume down". My question is then this: Is there any situation that I could happen to stumble upon in which I would need the down button to carry out an "unbricking process"/wipe/reseting? I have never had to use "fast boot" since all my issues jumping between firmwares have been resolved through CWM, and I don't want to just try "fast boot" now just to find I need the "volume down" to be able to restart the device
I don't think that button is needed for a major task, I think you're safe for now!
With the stock recovery you'll need it to use the update, but with cmw as you said it you don't need it, for fastboot/adb you don't need it, for now there's no major task that I can think of that that button is needed.

Thanks for the swift answer! So if i for example flash FolioMod then I need to flash CWM in order to change to another firmware. How do one flash CWM without using stock recovery? ADB? Guide somewhere?
Heres a post i've found on another forum that explains how to set up fastboot:
Step 1 - Install fastboot driver for the Folio :
- Download PdaNet and install it on your PC, it will go till a point where it says it can't be installed and cancel itself but the magic is that the driver is installed.
Download PdaNet from www[dot]junefabrics[dot]com/android/download.php (i had to put the link that way cause the forum wont allow me to post outside links yet)
Step 2 - Download the tools needed to prepare the Folio
- Download and extract the following archive on your PC, these are the tools needed to erase the Folio and to flash the Honeycomb rom. You will only need what's inside the folder ToolsD...
Download from www[dot]box[dot]net/shared/4ugbev5jnx5fbp3v3u2e
Step 3 - Start fastboot mode on the Folio
- Start the tablet and at the TOSHIBA logo press 3 times Power and 1 time Vol+, then connect it to the PC. It should be detected by the driver we installed at step 1.
Step 4 - Erase the tablet and flash the new recovery (ClockWorkMod)
- Open a cmd window on your PC, go to the folder ToolsD we extracted at step 2 and type in the following commands :
Code:
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase linux
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot
Step 5 - Install the new rom from ClockWorkMod
- Once the reboot starts, at the TOSHIBA logo, press Power and Vol+ at the same time, then Vol+, then Vol-, then Vol+. You should be in ClockWorkMod recovery...
- Prepare a SD card with your favorite rom (for me it's Folio3x(HoneyComb 3.0.1) for Folio100 - VegaComb based), don't forget to unzip it, you should end with a update.zip file.
- Insert the SD card in the tablet and select - apply sdcard:update.zip, it should start the installation. If not chose - install zip from sdcard and choose the file. If you can't see it, either the sdcard is not formated correctly or it simply does not see the card, try to reboot the recovery with the sdcard inserted.
After these steps and once it's installed, it should reboot and start VEGACOMB. Please be patient, it takes a while to start... and do not forget to reboot after the initial setup to activate the wifi (yes it's a bug)!
If it still does not start, reflash it again (step 5) sometimes it just does not work on first try. What you can also try is to format the different partitions from ClockWorkMod recovery, there's a Mounts and Storage menu and after you mount all the possible partitions (some won't), format them all, reboot the recovery and start step 5 again.
Regards,
Luis

If you want to change your recovery, just replace the recovery.img on the ToolsD folder with the one you want, then on step 4 just do the following:
Code:
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot
You dont need step 5.
I also think that if you remove the recovery.img from the update.zip before you flash the rom it will keep the recovery you have now, but i cant confirm that, anyway, if you need to change the recovery just do those steps.
I was using AOSPE rom and got new email id from office while adding new email got error saying can not add this email id without encrypting the device. For 3 hrs, it was stuck on 100% then the battery died I turn on the device again and promote screen for the password I didn't know which one to enter so I enter Gmail password. 'Encrypting unsuccessful Password is correct but data is corrupt reset phone to decrypt device' there was no any other options so I proceed like this
1) factory reset -> yes -> swipe
2) advance wipe /system /data /data/media /cache etc.
2) flash last rom I was using(AEX)
3) flash gapps
4) reboot the device.
after a reboot on the setup device screen, com.android.phone and google services framework stop working continuously so from step 2 I tried RR rom but no luck :crying: then flash stock rom and reboot device got in a boot loop :crying::crying: so holding vol. down and power button I am able to enter in bootloader screen but as I enter in recovery mode getting no command screen and adb not detecting the device.
what should I do? how can I get recovery mode back? teamwin or any other?
Hi , if your are able to boot into bootloader , just plug your device and write :
fastboot device
(just to make sure that your device is detected)
Now , from your stock firmware extract just recovery.img and put inside minimal adb & fastboot folder
now open terminal and write :
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
(in order to flash back your stock recovery)
now write fastboot reboot
More explained you have here:

Good luck
There are a number of generic installation guides for custom roms eg https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-install-custom-rom-android/
However this one is specifically for the LG G6 and tested using the US997 model. It worked for me, but I welcome comments on how to improve it.
Create a folder on the PC for all the downloads and files
Download phone driver from LG website
https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-mobile-drivers-and-software-CT10000027-20150179827560
Download ADB/Fastboot https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools (You need to unzip once downloaded)
(I had an error "adb server version (31) doesn't match this client (41) killing". I searched my PC and found an older version which I had used for another phone and deleted the folders and reinstalled from the download)
Ensure the phone is backing up. (Google backup is working, you have all your photos music etc downloaded) the next steps will wipe the phone
Remove the PIN/Password/Fingerprints from the phone so it will boot without any security.
Unlock the bootloader
https://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev
The phone will then reboot and do a complete wipe so you need to wait a while for Android to setup.
Telegraph has the latest news on LG G6 ROMs and Recovery. From here I got the links for SHRP recovery which seems more up to date for LG G6 than TWRP. (https://web.telegram.org/#/[email protected])
https://sourceforge.net/projects/pa-g6/files/Releases/SHRP/20.07.2020/US997/
I named the downloaded file "recovery" (You need the .img file not the ZIP)
There are lots of active ROMS for LG G6 I have Lineage installed on another phone which works really well, but Havoc seems the most popular on the G6.
Download the ROM and Gapps https://opengapps.org/ (I used Nano, remember G6 is 64bit)
You will also need to update the bootloader. This was the latest I found for the US997
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962575226
(I missed the bootloader the first time and Gapps will not flash, I was helped by the LG G6 community on Telegram https://web.telegram.org/#/[email protected])
Now you have downloaded all you need
Then connect the phone to the PC and ensured you have ADB debug on in developer options and boot the phone into fastboot
On the PC open a command prompt in the folder you have all the files:
adb reboot bootloader
To load the recovery to the phone :
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
YOU MUST NOW BOOT DIRECTLY TO RECOVERY. Do not reboot to Android as this will automatically reset recovery to the stock version.
Unplug the USB cable and reboot to recovery (hold volume down + power button).. continue holding until phone reboots...
As soon as you see the LG logo on the screen.. let go of the power button then quickly press it again (never letting go of volume down).
Keep holding until you see the Factory Reset screen. Click thru the factory reset screens using the volume buttons to move up/down and power button to select. Choose "Yes" twice (saying you want to reset the phone it should boot into your new recovery. Despite what the screen says it won't actually factory reset/wipe your data... as long as you've installed a custom recovery and have not booted into Android since then.
Most likely you will be asked the password to decrypt the data folder. I tried my phone PIN and other default passwords suggested on the internet. I eventually found that this is a known issue and you need for cancel out of this screen and go and "FORMAT DATA"
Reboot directly to recovery (select reboot recovery in Skyhawk), this time you should not be asked for the decryption password.
I recommend you backup your current setup before making changes. If you hit issues you can use the recovery to restore. My SD card slot is broken (Poor LG design) so I plugged a USB thumb drive into the USB C slot and did a full backup. (No data since I just formatted it).
Wipe the partitions before you flash
Full wipe ("The only option you ever need")
Select Advanced and wipe system partition.
FLASH (You need to put the ZIP files either on the USB drive as I did, or copy to your SD card, or you can use ADB sideloader from the PC to push the files to the phone). The USB drive seems the easiest since you can plug it into your PC to load the files then plug it into the phone to read them.
Flash in the following order
Bootloader
ROM
Gapps
After Installing wipe cache and Davik
Reboot
It will do lots of processing while setting up. Ensure it stays cool (remove case and leave it plugged in with the screen off)
Donate to the developer of your new ROM at the end when it works.
I have been running my LG G6 on Android 10 for a few weeks and thought I would share my observations, I am using Havoc 3.7 installed with Skyhawk, I did not root the phone.
Likes : Very smooth experience, phone feel like it is running much faster. Very stable, I had one surprise reboot in the time I have used it. No issues (so far) with installing or using any apps including banking. Much lower use of storage, I have 6GB free.
Same : Battery life is about the same as before.
Gaps : Cannot encrypt, VOLTE doesn't work (which may become a big issue for T-Mobile and AT&T soon), when being used the phone gets much warmer than it did before and the wifi setting randomly turns off.
Next Steps: I am going to try Lineage which has released some fixes for the WIFI issue and report back.
I'm trying to follow the instructions as per this guide for the tmo version of G6 (H87220g) and I'm running into a roadblock on the recovery flash:
[[email protected] tmp]$ mkdir skyhawk
[[email protected] tmp]$ cd skyhawk && 7z x ../SHRP_v2.3.2_us997-233920072020.zip
[[email protected] skyhawk]$ fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Sending 'recovery' (36936 KB) OKAY [ 1.252s]
Writing 'recovery' FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')
fastboot: error: Command failed
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I downloaded the Skyhawk zip from the PA download link, unzipped it and used the recovery.img file found inside the zip as part of the fastboot command. Is this incorrect ?
Yes, you need the recovery.img file to flash via fastboot. Have you successfully unlocked the boot loader? You cannot replace recovery without unlocking.
You also need to ensure you have the appropriate files for your phone I have a US997 but as you have H872 you would need skyhawk for the H872 in the notes above you are still using US997.
bootloader is unlocked as per:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-g6/how-to/unlock-bootloader-tmo-t3578099
fastboot flash is failing and I'm not the only one it seems like based on comments here and reddit...
I gonna try out @runningnak3d guide and see if that works...
This guide is for the US997. The H872 has a much more complicated process to install recovery : https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-g6/how-to/root-h872-to-including-11g-t3775518

my sister is very grateful
Thank you very much.
What build date has this rom? Sec. patches?
Can you please post your local manifest?
Very interesting guide, unfortunately the links don't work...
Is it possible to restore them?
Tanks. Max
I think its first guide how to do it because every other guides were for TB2-X30F but not for TB2-X30L.
I have only found lineage os for x30l, can someone please link lineage (Android 7) for x30f?
The difference between L and F is that L is the sim card variant. Ive read several people getting "insert sim card" when installing L on a F tablet. So I dont want messages like this.
Thanks for this tutorial. It was possible, to upgrade this old Tablet.
Do you know, if there is anything newer version for our Lenovo?

The tablet can also run on LineageOS 16 which is Android 9.
As I saw that the guys in the Russian 4PDA-Forum had been able to create a LiOS16, I was able to make some adjustments and compile a ROM with most recent security patches which now runs on my good old TB2-X30L / TAB2 A10-30:

Hallo,
I have installed LiOS14-UNOFFICIAL-TB2-X30L.zip. The installation was without problems.
But I am having problem with WiFi - problem of MAC 02:00:00:00:00:00. I have tried a lots of tips but nothig worked. Two times I was succesfull to set some MAC, but always, after while, it was gone. No able to reproduce to set.
Is it really so difficult to set somehow the MAC addres for the WiFi?
As I understand the setting of the MAC differs between different releases of OS. Does anybody know how it work in this release? It should by known where this relaese expects the MAC setting. Am I right?
1. temporary succes: Setting MAC in system/etc/firmware/wlan/qca_cld/wlan_mac.bin (I think. Its longer time ago and there was more attempts). It lasted for few months. It is not mine device so I don't know how it was handled.
2. temporary succes: I copied system/etc/firmware/wlan dir to system/vendor/firmware/wlan. I did it based on how it is in Samsung Galaxy S4 mini with Lineage 16. It worked. After restart I had to swith off and on the airplane mode to set MAC. After few attempts it was gone. No able to reproduce to set the MAC.

After few day i find out solution how to install custom ROM to my Lenovo tablet. I think its first guide how to do it because every other guides were for TB2-X30F but not for TB2-X30L.
Installation guide:

ALL FILES: https:// drive.google.com/drive/folders/1heVQAryphuXNVt5k-HsUhfRrVr9MV34D
ALL LINKS WORK ! JUST DELETE THE SPACE BEFORE drive.google.com...
1) On the tablet, at Settings, you must activate on the Developer Options the Bootloader Unlock (OEM unlocking) and USB debugging. Uncheck Verify apps over USB.
