What is BOOTSTACK ?
Bootstack is a bunch of files placed deep inside your phone. They are responsible for turning your phone ON and OFF, they are providing download mode which allows you to flash official KitKat and Lollipop .kdz files. Bootstack is ensuring SIM support so you could make calls, send texts and access mobile internet. Those files also allows you to fix your bricked phone after flashing bad ROM. Bootstack is basically making you phone work. If those files get corrupted you may have to send your phone to repair.
YOU SHOULD NOT MESS AROUND WITH DOES FILES !!!
Bootstacks available in download section are meant for advanced users who know what they are doing.
Which BOOTSTACK do I need ?
Usually you do NOT need and should NOT touch those files.
They are being updated when you flash .kdz file.
When you're updating your L90 to Lollipop using .kdz you are also updating bootstack to a newer version. After that update you can only use stock LG Lollipop. So if you want to go back to stock KitKat or install any customROM you have to downgrade your bootstack.
You can do this in two ways:
1. Use .kdz file with KitKat in LG Mobile Support Tool. After that update you may lose all your data, your bootloader will be locked (does not apply to D415), your recovery will be restored to original and you will lose ROOT privileges. Your entire phone will be restored to factory state. (Safer and recommended for inexperience users)
2. Use bootstack zips provided here. After flashing one of the zip available below you will downgrade or upgrade your bootstack (depending on which zip will you use). You will get unlocked bootloader and your recovery will change to TWRP. ROOT privileges will NOT be affected.
If you decide to use second option check out this description:
- If you want to use official LG stock Lollipop choose Lollipop zip
- If you want to use official LG stock KitKat or customROM choose KitKat zip.
I still don't understand what is BOOTSTACK for
If you updated your stock software from KitKat to Lollipop using .kdz file (or official OTA) you also (unwillingly) updated your BOOTSTACK to Lollipop version which is good. It's how it supposed to be. But if you decide to restore your KitKat backup from recovery or install customROM while being on stock Lollipop you will NOT be able to make calls, send texts or access mobile internet. To have SIM support you need KitKat BOOTSTACK and you can find it in this thread. Read again "Which BOOTSTACK do I need ?" to make sure you know what you are doing. If you have never updated your phone to official stock Lollipop from LG you don't need to change anything.
If you still have questions about BOOTSTACK ask them in Q&A section here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-l90/help/qa-bootstack-kk-l-l90-t3118867
You will need ROOT, unlocked bootloader and custom recovery (TWRP recommended) to flash this.
If you decide to use my bootstacks, please let me know if it worked correctly for you (please include variant number and name of zip you used) !!!

It's STRONGLY advised to less advanced users to read sections: "What is BOOTSTACK ?" and "Which BOOTSTACK do I need ?" before doing anything.
They should also choose ONLY files labeled as STABLE. They are confirmed as working properly for most of the people.
You should NOT forget that even stable files can work incorrectly for some users.

It should.
There is no information about changes between 20A and 20B and even if they are, they are probably regarding system partition. The only bootstack that I used was slightly modified D405n for KitKat.

What ROM were you on when you flashed the bootstack?
Sent from my LG-D415 using XDA Free mobile app

Hi
It should be NO Bootstack from KK needed. :​
1.Flash Lollipop from KDZ
2.Root the Device
3.Unlock Bootloader using this from my Thread ( Thx @Зевс)
4.Flash my TWRP or any recovery you want, via an app like: rashr, or flashify or .......
Thats it
The Bootstack thing is only needed on devices with locked Bootloader... but i bricked my G-Pad v400 (msm8226) many many times , when i try that out :silly: so the unlocked Bootloader (if its available) is the best way for me :good:
Best Regards

Before messing around I suggest you to flash kdz. Also, maybe in OP there should be a disclaimer regarding this shouldn't be used when nothing is wrong about your device ATM.

Thats what i am talking about. if you could not go into Recovery or Download Mode you are bricked at QHSUSB Mode 9006 or 9008.
This Bootstack Thing should only be used if you defintly know what you do, also make sure you could unbrick your device

What about bootstack C KitKat for D-415 ZNF..... Don't see it listed for people who need it

Bootstack are needed when you want to flash custom ROMs and your phone is upgraded to official lollipop.
Installing ROMs that way (without using kk bootstack or flashing back kk via kdz) ends with unknown baseband, no network signal.
Are you suggesting that people can use custom ROMs directly from lollipop stock?

ok i dont know that will try it out.
is it not enough to flash the modem then ?
also its much safer i think to flash the kk Kdz ?
edit: the bootstack is also neede on devices like my gpad (wheres no unlocked BL)... to use twrp on stock LP
thats the reason why i have to use bootstack from kk there
regards
edit2: yes youre right,(just tryed out) i i was not so much on my L90 the last days , so i dont saw that . THx @judas1977

So guys..I don't understand what Bootstack is..What I wanna ask is..
1- ATM I'm in stock Lollipop
2-If I unlock bootloader and install CM, there'll be unknown baseband..And I know this..
3-If I flash KK bootstack on Official LG Lollipop Stock, and then flash a custom ROM, will baseband work?
P.s. My phone is fully working right now, and I don't need bootstack for unbricking my phone.

You need bootstack to get network working on custom ROMs

Yes, That's correct. After flashing KK bootstack you will get a working baseband on customsROMs.

[ROM] 5.0.2 Stock-ROM - LG D415 L90

I am not responsible for bricked devices. Follow these steps at your own RISK! :angel:
Flashing this ROM will install the STOCK Android 5.0.2 OS From LG & T-Mobile.
This is only intended for use on the LG L90 D415 (T-Mobile Variant)
I've tested and everything works just fine. Just be sure to flash the SuperSU zip I've also provided. otherwise you WILL lose root!
I ASSUME YOU ALREADY HAVE BEEN FLASHING ROMS ON YOUR DEVICE AND ALREADY HAVE A CUSTOM RECOVERY INSTALLED!
I'm currently running a TWRP flashable version of the Official Lollipop update for the D415 L90 Optimus, or as I call it, the LollipOptimus! LOL
Rooted and all!
In post #3 there are links to my downloads. :laugh:
thanks to: @DevoutDevelopment for advice!
& @shoxxy for twrp!
Thanks to LG for updating this mid-range device!
Thank you to the L90 community! :highfive: You guys ROCK!

Contributors
brossovitch
ROM OS Version: 5.0.x Lollipop
ROM Kernel: Linux 3.4.x
ROM Firmware Required: LGE L90 D415 (w7)
Based On: Stock LG/TMO OTA
Version Information
Status: Stable
Current Stable Version: D415-LolliSTOKK
Stable Release Date: 2015-04-15

Last Updated 2015-04-15
Reserved
For this Rom to flash and function properly you need:
An LG Optimus D415 (T-Mobile USA) which has a custom recovery installed.
As far as the boot loader being unlocked.... I never had the LG bootloader to begin with, only fastboot.
The current functioning ROM is FULL stock. You must flash SuperSU before rebooting or you will lose ROOT!
**************INSTRUCTIONS*****************
First download all three files in the next post. they are:
1. ROM Zip (LG/TMO packed by me.)
2. SuperSU update Zip (Mediafire)
3. TWRP.img (shoxxy)
++Ensure you have TWRP installed.++
Then do this:
1. Reboot into TWRP (CWM works too, I reccomend Shoxxys TWRP)
2. Flash ROM
4. Flash SuperSU zip to keep ROOT
5. Factory reset via TWRP
6. Reboot
You're DONE!
It will take several minutes to begin booting, be patient. You MAY see the LG logo for a minimum of 5 minutes, don't freak out!
************************************************** ************************************************** **************************************************
FRIENDLY HEADS UP:
The Stock ROM file is more than 1GB (1.07gb actually) so you'll need to have enough free space on your SDcard.
YES, I reccomend flashing it from the External SD Card.
******************************************************
Stock LG Lollipop unrooted?
Just follow this simple tutorial:
http://highonandroid.com/android-smartphones/how-to-root-lg-g-flex-2-g2-g3-on-lollipop/
*****************************************
If you need a way to install TWRP from the device and you are rooted I HIGHLY recommend RASHR:

Godspeed to you all. PM me if you have issues. But I'm not responsible for your decisions!

LollipOptimus™
I have put together a modified version of this ROM. It's the stock OS with many changes..
Debloated and trimmed to where it is as MY daily driver..
It's stable, smooth, and functional. There are many things removed, like the quick memo app and quick remote app, I will not put them back in. You could just trial and error debloat the system on your own, like I did this week..
Anyway, here's the ROM:
https://mega.co.nz/#!B4EEXZxZ!40XcuPjeFMUVcW0TpAOeQwVkuZNNCzs9OtH9V-TJVl4
There will be updates made periodically. It's not fully done yet, IMO.
Make a nandroid before flashing this! Just in case!
Let me know immediately if there are any issues!
I'm so ready for this. I can finally have my camera back.
This is gonna be too good. Thanks for all the legwork so lazy bums like myself can enjoy the goodness.

then provide a link to the ROM and SUPERSU zip to ensure you stay rooted.

adb reboot fastboot
then

Nope, none of that.
I will say this, @Quarx has a Lollipop CWM recovery if you're worried about recovery compatibility....
I honestly prefer to use the FLAWLESS TWRP from @shoxxy .........I mean, it's simply the best!
I flashed via TWRP with no problems whatsoever/
I flash the ZIP, then SuperSU.zip, then just to be extra safe I reflashed the TWRP.IMG from recovery.
then I rebooted recovery to ensure TWRP was installed.
then simply rebooted the system...
everything worked great so far.
I just want to test it a few more times and make sure I don't kill anyone elses device. I had a WiFi only phone for a good 7hrs. nobody should have to deal with that.
I bricked this device several times today already, i need to ensure everything is working well before I have someone test.
I currently have a few people in mind to test. if they agree and try it out with no problems, it will be free for the taking!
Should I leave it stock with GApps? or remove all the GApps so users can flash their own..?
I say remove all gapps so we can flash our own.
Might give a little bit of freedom for the users. But I don't really care! I wanna try this out!

I currently have a few people in mind to test. if they agree and try it out with no problems, it will be free for the taking!

no, i mean that you are creating flashable 5.0.2, that will be flashing from recovery on 4.4.2 phone аnd after flashing recovery still properly working? It is?
But the official firmware via LG Support tool reflashes boot, aboot,laf,recovery,system folder etc. Does this mean that your firmware flashes only kernel, folders systems and data, but first levels of loading(like aboot) stay from older 4.4.2?

No, this ROM will flash all those, then just flash SUPERSU and TWRP right behind it. it typically works. Try it out.
I uploaded a BETA, be careful!

You NEED a MicroSD, and it WILL be formatted during this process.​
THIS WILL NOT WORK ON GALAXY S3/GALAXY S4/GALAXY S6|e/Galaxy S7|e. It will NOT work on AT&T.
We can't help you root or teach you how to use ADB. It's important you have the ability to do these things or research them a bit before blindly using this.​

This is a summarized guide with the required files to upgrade and unlock the new bootlloader required for Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow (N910VVRU2CPD1) on Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910V). Extended details about each step (e.g., rooting) can be found in the General Section of this forum.
If you're already on unlocked Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow bootloader, you can extract and flash the DevEd partial firmware via Odin to upgrade:
N910VVRU2CQL1_PartialFirmware_DevEd.tar.md5.7z​
This will upgrade the base firmware (NON-HLOS, modem, rpm, sbl1, sdi, and tz) to N910VVRU2CQL1.

Requirements:
Verizon Samung Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910V)
All files in the Download Section
Odin installed on Windows
ADB installed on Windows, Mac, or Linux

Click to collapse
Notes:
If you own a Developer Edition, you can still use this method unless you want to keep your original CID and signature. If so, make backup of your aboot and CID! You may contact @ryanbg to create a special unlock binary for your own device.
Everyone should unlock his bootloader on Lollipop to save extra steps and prevent complications. The official thread (or any guides based on it) will change your device CID to 150100523231384d4100657e54fc1200 which will match and allow for direct unlocking of the Marshmallow bootloader. Otherwise, the unlock binary will change your decvice CID and reboot, which may end up with a bootloop that requires extra step(s) to fix.
It's recommended to wipe data (factory reset) in stock recovery after Odin flash of full firmware.
Make appropriate backups of everything before trying this.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Instructions:
Unlock your Lollipop bootloader to match CID (start here)
You can ignore this step if you did it already. If not and for Developer Edition owners, I'd recommend to flash N910VVRU2BPA1 Full Firmware via Odin before unlocking.
Boot into Download Mode
Extract and flash N910VVRU2BPA1_N910VVRU2CPD1_FullFirmware.tar.md5 via Odin
This will make you on Lollipop with Marshmallow bootchain/firmware/modem, which is rootable.
Root your device (Check General Section for detailed instructions)
Note that WiFi will not work due to the updated bootloader, but you can use Mobile data if needed for rooting.
Unlock the bootloader using the same method:
Code:
[email protected]:/ # cd /data/local/tmp/
[email protected]:/ # chmod 777 samsung_unlock_n4-fix <
[email protected]:/ # ./samsung_unlock_n4-fix

No, it's already tested a few days ago. I just recreated the tar to include MM modem and NON-HLOS so that you don't have to flash extra tars. I'll upload it very soon, but in the meanwhile, you can familiarize yourself with the process and do any preliminary steps (backups, LP unlock, ... etc)
Thank you @hsbadr ....I.m glad your here with us
If I took the OTA, would I have to rollback to 5.1.1 and do this?

If it's like the original root process you have to push a file via ADB.

Follow the link in the 1st step! It's probably b/c you own a developer edition and never tried to unlock/upgrade the bootloader before. Simply, you need ADB to push the unlock binary to /data/local/tmp and execute it after rooting. Theoretically, this can be done in Terminal Emulator on device, but we prefer to use ADB since users should increase their knowledge before trying something dangerous like this one.
Thank you I do own a developer edition...lol I know how to use adb I'm just a little rusty

Please use common sense and read ITS FOR THE JAPANESE VARIANT.. READ THE MODEL #. Good gosh stop posting stupid questions dude.
Thanks I'll try this when I get to work.
I can't seem to unlock my bootloader, I'm unable to flash TWRP and enter the recovery. It just says Recovery mode -> Warranty bit set: Recovery and enters into a normal boot after trying it a few times.
Edit:
used the official TWRP and recovery now works. Now trying to install the rom
Edit2:
When trying to install it keeps giving me the following error:
This package is for "SC-02h,hero2qledcm" devices; this is a "hero2qltedcm"
Update process ended with ERROR: 7
Error installing zip file '/sdcard/TWRP/SC-02H_Debloated.zip'
Edit3:
I edited the update-script and removed the assert.
However I don't notice any changes in the rom itself. It still has some bloatware (docomo stuff)
ahh ok i thought it would use sco2h not dcm I can fix that sorry, and I assume twrp is doing the same. I will use a dcm kernel in twrp, let me know if that kernel boots please I dont have the device in hand so I am relying on you all to let me know.
USE crom.apk to unlock bootloader you should find it in galaxy apps store. I'm pretty sure others have unlocked their bootloader doing the same thing. I also used to have someone install my hkroms and kernels on the jap variant so I know you can unlock the bootloader.
CROM: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=385035244224394932
can you unlock the bootloader with that, its a link to what we used to unlock ours.
I need you to unlock your bootloader first please. Sounds like that is the issue.
If I run that app it just exits with Crom Service has stopped working.
Your rom works fine, it has root which is what I needed the most.
Just wish there was a way to remove the sim lock from the device without having to beg Docomo.
I bet I have my asserts all messed up here man I'm sorry. I see SC-02H than hero2qltedcm, than SM-G935D soo I need to get this in the correct order. Would you mind shooting me a pm so I can hangouts you so we can knocks this out quickly?
updated op with twrp recovery and kernel.
This works, root and most of the bloated software is gone
Off topic question (need some insight)
You have started to make a working TWRP for the Docomo variant - thank you for your work (hopefully people in JP using the Docomo version find success).
I know this is off topic but I thought you could provide me with a better understanding.
I am currently using the au KDDI variant (SCV33-Snapdragon) and have successfully installed TWRP (3.0.2-0) with ability to mount /data following xda, youtube, and a Vietnamese forum using google translate; BUT I am unable to keep TWRP ability to mount /data after flashing re-engineered boot file via odin to apply root (Snapdragon Variant Root). TWRP can still be used to go into recovery, mount /ext sdcard, and reboot. I've tried many different styles of rooting after and before installing TWRP, in addition to flashing in different ways - but I still failed. It's either have full working TWRP that can mount /data but without root; or, have root but TWRP that can't mount /data (basically useless as it cannot install anything nor, make backups).
I apologize for such long response, any insight or somewhere you can point me to where I can do more research, as this is how far I have come so far, but still fail to acquire both (Yes I have watched numerous YT vids and read countless post stating devs have not yet found a way on the US-Snapdragon variants, which I understand this may apply to the JP variant too) . Thank you.
With the development of ROMs for the Exynos variants (SG935F/FD) moving along apace... I'm wondering if it is feasible to use one of those ROMs with this kernel.
I did something similar to get a custom ROM made for an AT&T S4 onto my DoCoMo S4 (SC-04E) without issues.
Is that a stupid question?
SCV33 looks exactly the same as SC-02H. What's the difference? single sim dual sim? Can you use sc-02h roms for it? I need more information unless you guys want to start donating me devices.

You guys should never flash an engineering kernel anymore. There is no need since you have a custom kernel and ramdisk and twrp now since I made them. Also those are exynos not qualcomm you can port it but it will be a major task to do.

First, I really apprecate the work you have put in on bringing ROOT and TWRP to users in Japan. If I can help by doing some testing for you with my DoCoMo model, I'd be happy to do so!
Regarding my original question, I was not talking about an engineering kernel. I was thinking that if I flashed a custom ROM for the SG-935F Hong Kong (Exynos) model, and then flashed your kernel over it, would it work?
As I understand it, the kernel is the interface between the OS and the hardware. Maybe that is ignorant? The reason I ask is because this process was quite common for Japanese S4 users to employ custom ROMs for US S4s; i.e. Flash the US custom ROM (e.g. Mokee or Albee95) and then flash the Japanese S4 kernel onto it.
I understand the question might seem silly to you, but I don't have the hundreds of hours required to reach your level of expertise. I have invested sufficient time to understand much of the jargon; and the tools and methods employed to get root and flash ROMs. More than that, I rely on asking the experts, like you. :good:
you would have to port firmware framework and a bit of other things, secondly hong kong does not self exynos versions here. It's all Qualcomm.

Travis,
TESTED (Semi-working)
I've done some testing on my SCV33 variant using what you've made for the SC-02H.
[Kernel]
I flashed the HKernal Beta 2, using the SC-02H FW, and TWRP Unofficial you've provided onto my SCV33 Galaxy S7e and it is really snappy and fast. Very nice kernel. Any DoCoMo users out there should flash this - though still beta it does the job. I had no problems flashing this in TWRP.
[TWRP Unofficial]
I was able to mount all partitions - works. I had no problem flashing this using Odin.
[Problems I've Encountered]
* After rebooting into TWRP Unofficial many times. My log reads "Unable to mount /steady." I have no idea what this is or what partition it belongs too; but, TWRP is still able to do everything else such as mount /data, wipe /system, etc. - I don't think its a big issue to be honest. Just wanted to let you know.
* After installing everything and everything working fine. I do not/cannot communicate with networks (cannot connect to wifi, cannot call, and no data). I had check SIM status = not available, IMEI = Unknown, SN = Unknown. I had made an EFS back up of my KDDI rom with working network communication and restored with with TWRP Unofficial. Installation via TWRP log has stated successful, but upon reboot problem has not been fixed. Any ideas I should try? I also believe the software from the SC-02H OS handles how im about to connect to data towers and catch frequencies. Putting in my own APN does not work.
* Crom Service.apk you've provided at an earlier comment to unlock bootloader, which I've installed, does not work. All it does is FC when trying to open the app - installation is fine. I had also tried getting one from the internet, and looking for it at the Samsung Galaxy App Store - the internet one does the same, FC. Samsung Galaxy App Store does not have Crom Service available. I am assuming SCV33 wont ever be able to unlock bootloader.
* Debloated Rom Zip does not work, after doing a clean install to Stock Odin, installing TWRP Unofficial, system ext4 format, wiping /system /data /internal storage /dalvikArt /cache, and flashing Debloated Rom Zip with TWRP - states installed successful and boots up. Though upon booting I still have all the bloat there. In addition, many FCs from many different apps, even after reboot (e.g. tap and play, google play store, google services). The rom still functions after a couple more reboots after a /dalvikART cache wipe, but it just doesn't seem as fast as the stock one though. I believe this maybe a conflict due to my device, and myself as well.
----
Oh BTW the SCV33 is:
*SM-G935J
*OS 6.0.1
*Single SIM only
I will try my best do to other methods on trying to get this to fully work, but the Network Communication thing always halts my progress. I really dig this kernel man.
Again, thank you for your hard work and dedication to the Snapdragon Variant its very much appreciated :highfive:. Looking at the Exynos sub-forum I get so jelly at times.
OK is yours has a different modem then the rest. Also your partitions might be a bit different, I really need that device in my hands to look at the partition layout. If you can find SCV33 kernel source I will be more than happy to make a kernel for this variant also. I call my kernels beta because it's just how I do it.
Ok found your source for the kernel I'll check out the configs and maybe make a kernel later on this week.
SM-G935J (SCV33)
Here is a test kernel: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862698452

Tmobile lg g4 bootloader twrp supersu

Hi,
Im kind of late in terms of LG G4. But it it is now my curret phone. Have expierence installing unlock bootloader installing twrp and supersu on motorola phones. Owned a LG G2 and bricked it because of flashing wrong files.
There are alot of variants to LG phones...compared to motorola that create a higher risk.
So im trying to be cautious here.
Ive done my research and found this link.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-g4/development/stock-h811-20i-images-kdz-flashable-t3308227
Can someone confirm that this will work on my LG G4 T mobile 20v with 6.0 marshmellow?
From what i understand i just skip the first step Flashing the imagee (because it is for the 20i) then continue with the normal routine? Is this twrp and supersu compatible?
Is there a way to restore my variant stock rom if i screw up?

These instructions are more up to date and accurate! - https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-g4/general/how-to-unlock-bootloader-flash-twrp-t3344421
on line 10 change the command to 'fastboot boot recovery "NAME OF TWRP FILE" - this will boot twrp on the phone itself, then from phone install twrp and supersu from your microsd card
you need to put a copy of twrp in the adb/fastboot folder on your pc and twrp and supersu on your microsd card before starting, to avoid mistakes name them recovery.img and supersu.zip

Start the backup and wait at least 10 min. The screen should become responsive after the backup has finished - normally sooner but it is not crashing just using all power available.

[ROM][8.1.0][OFFICIAL] AOSiP {T-mobile/Sprint}

Aosip for Motorola Z2 Force
What is this?
AOSiP is a quality custom ROM based purely on GOOGLE AOSP source since 6.0 release. Twisted with the latest features and blended with stability. We strive for perfection and it shows.
Obligatory Warning: This guide and ROM assumes you know the fundamentals of fastboot, flashing TWRP, and running a flash all. Your warranty is voided because of the unlocked bootloader. This is a Third Party ROM. Things may not work as expected compared to stock (for better or for worse).
Warning 2: If you can't do fastboot commands, do a flash all, root your device or flash TWRP/ROM, please do not ask for help here. If you cannot flash all back to stock, please stay stock for everyone's sake.
Warning 3: if you don't flash the firmware so you are on Oreo on both slots, when you boot after flashing, you'll be on Nougat firmware and have a brick. Try a flash all as that's your only hope on recovering your phone.
How to install
1. Download the latest ROM from here.
2. Prepare your phone for AOSP style ROMs. (download one of the firmwares depending on your model)
Flash the firmware with the .bat file. (See links below or on Post #2)
3. Boot to TWRP
4. Flash TWRP to boot image (with the zip from their website.) Reboot to Newly flashed recovery.
5. Erase oem, data, and system
6. Flash rom like you would any aosp rom, in twrp.
7. Reboot to bootloader
8. run the command "fastboot -w" (this will erase EVERYTHING from your phone, even internal SD, but is needed to have these ROMs work)
9. reboot.

Known issues
1. WiFi Calling hit and miss
2. Cannot flash Gapps (included temporarily)
3. some Audio recording apps will not have audio recording work (phone functions fine)
4. if you don't fastboot -w, you will not boot.
5. if you don't flash the firmware your bootloader might relock itself and be stuck on Nougat.
6. SElinux is passive (meaning CTS check will always fail until further notice.)

Bug reports:
If you don't flash the firmware and your other slot is nougat, after flashing the ROM, you'll brick. (Custom ROM with a locked nougat slot.) Your only hope is attempting an official flash all and try again after flashing the firmware zip in the posts above.
Fair warning and off-topic: I am okay with some off topic questions. If you have a question, please use the search function. If I have addressed the question before, I will not answer and advise to find it in the thread. I will report the post for a mod to delete along with my response to keep the thread tidy. It seems some users think this ROM has international support. It doesn't and won't unless someone with another variant or an unlocked T-Mobile/Sprint model tests, confirms and debugs for that international carrier. Please keep in mind of what I said below regarding this. I posted this on page 20 or so and copying here for better visibility.
Your SIM is locked. You are trying to run a phone off it's intended network. Please don't post those problems here. It isn't ROM related. Like the thread states. It works for T-Mobile and Sprint only on their respective models on their locked networks. Any other tom foolery isn't supported and must be kept out of the thread. After this it will be considered off topic.
Edit: if you have Sprint or T-Mobile service and run into issues with using your (albeit, expensive) international roaming plan, I will assist with that if it works on stock but not AOSP. If you don't have a sprint or T-Mobile sim, I cannot help. Almost all devs on this device won't be able to help. "Almost" all of us are on US carriers.

@Uzephi is your device on sprint? Data works but LTE does not? Does the Moto Mods support Hot Swapping? This is great progress and can't wait to see more on this phone.

Motomods work with kernel in ROM (hot swapping should as well iirc, I don't use the mods that often where my projector is outdated) LTE doesn't work on Sprint, but 3G and 1xTT works fine.
@Uzephi if we were to flash your kernel, we would lose motomods support?

For now, yes. Still trying to get it work. Clang is being a PITA on my build box, having to go to Linaro which can't build the Motorola Greybus driver correctly.
Thanks sir, I appreciate what you've done for the community, finally can go back to my moto from a GS8+
I'm sorry if this is a dumb question but...
Ive never had to install different firmware before on a ROM. If I install this, will it change the process of installing a different ROM in the future?
Thank you.
Sprint varient if it matters by the way.
Edit: I'm sorry for this but is there a way to do this without the .bat file? currently working on OSX

Open the bat file in a text editor and run each of those commands one by one.
This I'd a dual boot device. Your other slot has the older Nougat bootloader. That firmware flashed the current Oreo firmware to both slots. If you don't do that, and you flash one of these ROMs, you'll reboot to your nougat slot, locked and pretty much screwed without a flash all and luck of being able to flash OEM images in oem mode.
Edit: you won't need to flash this any consecutive times until there is another big firmware update like nougat to Oreo was.

Thank you for the quick reply. I've installed the firmware, but now when I boot to TWRP and try to install the ROM, it instantly fails with ERROR:1. Tried redownloading with a different browser but got the same result. I feel like I'm missing something obvious.

Flash twrp zip to your phone, reboot to your phone's newly flashed twrp recovery and flash the rom. If I remember right,you need to wipe oem and system before flashing the ROM as well. I'll add that shortly.
Up and running! Thank you!! Still looking around but I do see a built in updater. Will this function 100%? By that I mean, when the Sprint LTE issue is resolved and whatever else is coming will be handled by the updater?
Thanks again very excited to play around.

Yes, since it's official, it checks the link in OP for any new updates.
For anyone using the ROM, are you seeing notification dots, I tried to get them to work, but they're not working for me.

Working fine for me thru Evie Launcher. Soundboost mod is broken though. My SoundBoost is recognized and the notification says the mod is attached, but the volume steps are reduced to on/off and no sound comes out.
Edited to reflect that only the sound boost mod isn't working AFAIK.

Oh, @npjohnson and @invisiblek don't have the sound mod, so they can't get it to work. All of us in the development discord are trying to mail one out, they can't guarantee when it would get fixed.
Edit: added disclaimer to OP. We can only guarantee what we have works. Like when I do my kernel, the only mod I have is the free projector, so that's the only mod I can guarantee works when I do get it working.
I have an extra soundboost I could mail to someone.
