Hello.

Reset/Remove Kill Switch is not supported at the moment, but we can try to help You with this problem. At first, You need to connect the device via eMMC, then read out "Misc" partition and send us. We will patch it and send You to write it back into the phone. After this Kill Switch will be removed.

At first try to connect your device via eMMC:

1. Install the latest version of Medusa Software (https://medusabox.com/eng/download/software).
2. Download SRF "LG_D631_EMMC.srf" from the Support Area via "Download *.srf" button in Software.
3. Select "eMMC" option in Software.
4. Select LG D631 in the list of Software (model will appear in Software list after SRF installation).
5. Press "Pinout" button in Software to look at eMMC pinout picture and carefully solder all necessary wires.
6. Connect the device and post here full Software log with device connection info. Then we will say You what exactly to do the next.

don't have medusa yet was thinking of buying one just for this... normally if the phone or user area data be reset kill switch should be disable... or write full factory firmware that reset user data area should get rid of kill switch

Unfortunately, simple writing of new firmware will not reset "Kill Switch".
