Had the phone for 24 hrs- decided to poke around. I don't think there is root available yet, but there it is. Modified. Anyone else have a modified status?

If it's new, I'd bring it back. If it's not new, it could be a modified ROM.

Re: VZW software Modified?

I haven't found any themes in mine.
@Maybish- the only thing I did was turn on developer options prior to checking the software status. Do you have dev options enabled?
 
Re: VZW software Modified?

I dont have dev enabled and mine says official

Re: VZW software Modified?

I have developer options enabled, and mine still says official. I would return it.

Does yours have themes? I'm reading a lot about Verizon modifications taking away quick settings and themes but is yours present ?

I have the LG smart world app and downloaded a couple themes but don't know how to apply them!

Mine says official too. Only disabled Verizon bloat for the most part and installed all my apps. Can you get into recovery by any chance? You bought it from BB or Verizon store?
 
Re: VZW software Modified?

Bought it from VZW and shipped to my house- Going to drop down to the local store where I placed the order and have them look at it- I would hate to do a factory reset, but if I must I will. Better than giving it up- Thanks for the replies guys!
 
Went to the corporate store- they're minds were blown. They couldn't get over the Tan back for the most part lol. They reached out to Tech support, and now I'm waiting for an answer. They even had me remove my sd card and restart to no avail.
