Not my project but thought this might help people find it: TWRP 2.7.1.0 for KK Bootloaders by dhacker29
http://androidhosting.org/Devs/Dhacker29/msm8960/
Edit: To avoid confusion I changed the link to the one RikRong posted that will give you the M only version. File name: TWRP2710-RAZR_M-KITKAT.img.
Edit2: Looks like the links are down so here is a link to a post that @rahimali provided in this thread. Its for TWRP 2.8 and 2.7.1.0.

anyone else have a problem with this not recognizing the touch commands and just basically acting like its frozen? Nothing works I left it for awhile and came back to it and tried to open the slide lock and it doesn't do anything. The battery is fully charged so what I guess I have to do is wait for the thing to die so I can get out of recovery.
UPDATE: Still not working for me but I was able to shut it down by pressing the Power + Volumes Up and Down Keys

Yes I downloaded the correct one from RikRong and it was the one that says:
TWRP2710-RAZR_M-KITKAT.img
I redownloaded it and tried again but still no avail. Touch just refuses to work with this for me. So I'll just have to stick to 2630

That's strange, I haven't had that issue either. Maybe a bad DL? Try downloading and flashing again.

no luck with twrp so switched back to cwm. i also flashed the same way using fastboot
well I'll give the flashy a try and see but I think its more an issue with my phone. but I got time to play so we'll give it a shot.
Ok tried doing it with flashy and still the same result just no touch at all so I just give up with this and will stick with the one that works for me

Looking at my bootloader I do not think I am on the KK bootloader it gives me a date of 2013-09-25 I am assuming that is the original bootloader that it came with. Guess I'll do a search for the KK bootloader and see if I can get that flashed over.

To get the KK bootloader, I flashed the latest OTA through rsd lite. It should keep the boot loader unlocked but will remove root. If you plan on using a stock ROM, Q9Nap's GPE is very smooth and stable. Their thread gives links and instructions on how to flash OTA.
So the Frog has officially Croaked his Phone.
Yes you heard right I have managed to kill my phone. Only good thing is that I couldn't use it for much more than a mini wifi tablet so I didn't really loose anything.
I could not get Twrp 2710 to work was because I had the old boot loader So I decided to update the boot loader which I did but now the phone will not go out of the boot logo screen. I have successfully reinstalled my ROM and still will not go past the boot logo screen. I have tried fastbooting back to the old bootloader but no luck there either. I have spent about 2.5 hours this morning trying different things to get it to work and nothing I have found or came across will work. I have however successfully installed twrp 2710 and now have it working. Considering that is the only area of the phone That I can actually get into i guess thats something.
Some of the older Roms won't boot on the kk kernel they will not boot past the boot logo... When you upgraded did you flash the entire kk firmware via rsd? And it wouldn't boot past the boot logo...

slap, there hasnt been another recovery released that i am aware of.
ver 2 of my CWM root was only to root via CWM, it doesnt replace recovery.
This is my first htc and Im not even sure how to flash anything using fastboot. Im so used to booting into cwm recovery and flashing from that. I know there isn't a recovery already built for the vivid but if someone could point me to the right thread on how to get into the recovery Im accustomed to Im sure I could figure the rest out

Ah you are correct, my apologies. Or maybe he's using the other CWM apparently floating around that doesn't have the battery indicator issues .
But my fault, I forgot what I wrote in my own thread! imitenotbecrazy, go to the thread that Pirateghost specified, read up on everything. Also, I have written down some things just in case you have that backup issue. Try this...
- IF YOU ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH BACKING UP, pull the battery, boot back into recovery (power + vol down then select recovery) and try again. OR you may have to boot up and delete the old partial backups with a file explorer and try again. OR make sure your USB is no longer connected and try again.

Yes you must be on the Jellybean leak, rooted, with Safestrap 3.0 installed.
Well I rebooted without wiping data or cache and now my phone won't boot.
Cannot enter SS3 either..

For you it was a must, in my other experience it's a suggestion. Always wipe if unsure. I will note this in the OP, however.

Hey matt. Nice ROM... it looks really cool. Thanks.

Well you can go to leaked Jellybean for AT&T if you are boot loader unlocked... You flash system and boot.IMG from ATT 77.12.22 then boot to stock recovery and install the jellybean leak after the normal root procedure ( root, ota root keeper, etc) see the threads for those Also might need to wipe data when flashing att files or boot loop.

Which one did you install?
I tried 3 different times to get the tablet UI working. Each time I got stuck in boot loop.
Sent from my phone.
It gets to the end but shows install error 7 at the end, booted anyways, now just bootloops to eternity. No recovery is accessible only fastboot now.
Tried to install 3 recoveries through fastboot all passed but none bootup, factory resetted through fastboot, no go still. Not in anyway meant to steer people away from the ROM, others are reporting it is working fine for them. I can't and a few others it seems. Phones aren't done for, just temp out for the count.
Will clean up the thread and make things prettier but need to get to work, hopefully this gets some attention. Thanks for any help guys, I won't be able to trouble shoot for about 10 hours or more depending on work things.
Were you able to restore your backup, or perhaps adb push a new rom ?
If not, what is your fastboot getvar all output?

I can't access recovery. Others have posted they can get into recovery and revert back. I cannot get it to boot and stay in recovery for more then a second.

Good to know OP! Lucky you had a RUU to go back to!
HI ALL,
I have successfully rooted my HTC and Samsung devices before but I am very new to LG phones.
I did root with ioroot22 (worked perfectly).
Then I attempted to install CWM with flashify app.
But in the process I flashed CWM incorrectly (I think)
When I boot phone I am just stuck in fastboot black screen.
Am I screwed? Seems like Sprint TOT or KDZ files are not available yet.
Anyone know what I can do to get phone working again. Any help is very much appreciated
Please note I can get into CWM when I press - & power but can't really do anything beyond that.

Repace xxx with your 15 digit imei.

Yea that didnt work, i think i damaged my my OS.
To the other poster, mrphil101, putting my IMEI didnt work on that website. Dont think LG has publicly released the kdz file yet.
Regardless, i was able to bring life back into my phone with the help of a member name, wolfgart. He was able to somehow provide me both the .tot & .dll for my sprint variant.
If you guys need any help on LG phones, he is the man.
How were you able to get in touch with him? I think he is banned from trying to sale the tot files. I would gladly buy the tot file so that we could all have it

advice, thought, or a suggestion.. dont use toolkits until you know what you are actually doing. do things the right way, until you learn how to do it properly. then use all the toolkits you want. the problem is that toolkits dont teach you a single thing, and doing things right on any nexus is very easy.
my suggestion would be to wipe data/system then reflaah cm again.

I actually am not a noob,
And I do know how to flash factory images manually using fastboot commands.
I downloaded all necessary files to flash manually.
I did that,
Wouldn't boot past boot animations.
Tried again with tmobile official (from google) files,
Same thing. So last resort was wugs.
Clean flashed cm12.1.
And wouldn't boot.
I appreciate your advice, but don't assume because I didn't succeed on a simple thing as a flash, that one is not familiar with this. The only thing I can think of that would have prevented boot was maybe I had a bad DL of cm.
But unlikely.
Planned on downloading a diff ROM and gapps.
If it doesn't I'll be flashing factory images of LMY47M manually and reroot and recovery and start from there.
Oh and thank you for the wipe/advice.
I did :-/ go fig
Reflashed before I restored backup but no go.

And I do know how to flash factory images manually using fastboot commands.
I downloaded all necessary files to flash manually.
I did that,
Wouldn't boot past boot animations.
Tried again with tmobile official (from google) files,
Same thing. So last resort was wugs.

Did you downgrade the bootloader back to 5.1.1?

Yes, manually first and when it wouldnt* boot past animation, last resort was NRT
So I'm assuming NRT flashed boot loader associated to LMZ28E
Edit: maybe if I downgrade down to 5.0.1? Then reroot and recovery?

Do we know for a fact the that we can downgrade the bootloader from m? We learned we couldn't downgrade from 5.1 bootloader.

I reread the thread like 3x.
And it was mentioned that another user used NRT to downgrade successfully.
I thought the same thing, but didn't try it till I read that thread till 4am. This morning decided to take the plunge.
I was thinking also, if I just reflash bootloader and radio and put M back on, then just try manually flashing 5.1?

i did flash the new bootloader, but i went back and forth from M to terminus(rom) about 5 times yesterday. flaah the new bootloader again, and keep it. you trying to downgrade it might be the issue. btw, i flashed m, and the bootloader, via twrp recovery, its much easier and faster that way. after, i made a backup in recovery. so now all i do to go back and forth is restore the backups.
oh, and i meant you no disrespect. while it doesnt include everyone, most people using toolkits around here are noobs. and they are the ones that usually get stuck. so, i apologize

I think that's where I messed up from the beginning when I flashed M.
I didn't notice the modified boorloader that doesn't force encryption and it was all downhill from there.
That being said,
Should I flash modified boorloader to not force encrypt, and blah blah blah?

God I wish it was a faster download link -_- lol
BTW, when I first downloaded and flashed boorloader via twrp (radio also) rebooted twrp to flash ROM, and sdcard was wiped
It shouldn't do that right?

no, it shouldnt unless you accidentally did it yourself. ive seen people do that too often. if you go into the wipe menu, be sure to go into advanced options, where you can pick what you want wiped.or itll wipe everything.
K so everything's downloaded....
Going to flash in a sec all via twrp.
Report back .
Wish me luck lol

What cracks me up the most is people that posses limited knowledge about fastboot flashing partition images are just seemingly willy nilly flashing images not really fully understanding what they are doing/flashing. We all have to learn somehow but I wouldn't do it at the expense of flashing a boot loader. If anything went wrong during a boatloader flash you would definitely have an unrecoverable hard brick.
Moral of the story.... People, read the how to's and SLOW down... Think about what you are doing. After reading the above replies its clear to me that people are getting a bit confused with a boot.img and a bootloader.img. its OK guys. Just be careful
