some little questions

Please excuse me and sorry if you think that my question isn't for this forum, but I'm going to buy and LG V10 and i was wondering about which model is the one that support the bigger amount of bands, and in my case it doesn't really matter if it's dual sim or not, also i wanna know if it's a good idea to buy it from here (add the amazon at the very beginning):

###LG-H961N-16MP-SMARTPHONE-Black/dp/B017E971OC/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_sims?ie=UTF8

or if you recommend me to wait for it to be shipped to my country by LG

PD: I'm from Costa Rica, sorry if my english is not as good as you would like it to be, i just have studied it for about 8 months
[LG V10 General] melorib:
I downloaded your system dump, please tell me if it is original system or Marsh mellow update :confused:

I had all the tools for Samsung, have no clue with this LG, where can I found ROMs downloads, how do I install, etc... :eek:

Thank you,

Same here, works with data, not for calls :rolleyes:

I've been reading all night now, any resolution for the VARIABLE NOT ENABLE issue? I followed the root tutorial and manage to get my Super SU at the cost of my LTE service. :crying:
[LG V10 General] tickertapes:
I very much doubt rooting your phone will cause you to lose any bands.

The variable not active issue is no cause for concern, it exists on some devices and is absent on others. On the V10 it is simply not used, so don't worry about it.

Check out the H962 forum, I posted plenty of screenshots while suffering myself

Good luck!
[LG V10 General] melorib:
I guess I was lucky then, other than no VoLTE mine works fine, including band 20, I upgraded to MM :good:
[LG V10 General] addyhash:
Im sure we will work it out. Im too lazy to flash unrooted lollypop to see if i still see emergency calls only when 4g connected. Strangely i sometomes see the volte switch in notification panel struck out and not selectable... But now that [MENTION=5579294]brobro[/MENTION] has confirmed no volte on the rooted LL rom... Im not gonna chase it any further.

Can some PLEASE post the .apk files for Call and Contacts?

Someone posted LGContacts.apk and LGInCall.apk which I already downloaded.

Those two .apks fail to load on my phone and I screwed up my dialer/contacts by TitaniumBackuping my old contacts (data only) from a Samsung phone. (I did it because the transfer never keeps my groups and I had to try)

Oh, unknown Sources is checked and so is USB debugging.
[LG V10 General] addyhash:
how weird is that it says 'unknown' next to carrier.... i have tried with superuser granted, but it keeps resetting sims to search for LTE and it bugs me... but still shows unknown even with superuser granted.

in hidden menu i get success for band 28, and the screenshot shows the 4g icon next to signal strength, and that is the only 4G frequency for my carrier....

thanks for your continued unput, you're a valued member of the team!
[LG V10 General] elfodd:
I'll give it another try but I'm giving up hope that anyone else has this problem...I cannot find a way to get rid of the wifi calling icon...
[LG V10 General] addyhash:
never seen that one...
[LG V10 General] elfodd:
Rooted/ unrooted, LL/ MM it stays there no matter what...
[LG V10 General] addyhash:
i'm going with carrier related (sim )
[LG V10 General] elfodd:
That was my thought too I'm on ee uk and you can only use wifi calling if you buy a carrier branded phone straight from them....
[LG V10 General] tickertapes:
Hi,

I just loaded an EE sim into my H962 and did not get the wi-fi calling icon.

Very strange as we both have the same phone, in the same country and on the same network.

I seem to recall when I tried MM out on my device there was something to do with Wi-Fi calling in the hidden menu. have you tried turning it on / off in there?
[LG V10 General] melorib:
After reading this I set Wi-Fi calling ON, no icon on the status bar...
[LG V10 General] elfodd:
Is the name of the setting vofi? I found that only in the hidden menu and it doesn't do anything...

And out of curiosity I checked wifi calling doesn't even work...
[LG V10 General] tickertapes:
Hi Brobro,

Thanks for getting back to me.

It turned out to be the LTE discovery widget that was giving me grief.

I ran my phone in a factory fresh state today with no issues at all, did a restore when I got home and all hell broke lose again. Disconnects and all kinds of whackyness.

It turned out the be the LTE discovery widget. Even though the app itself was not running, this thing would cause havock whenever it fealt like it.

Got rid of it now and it's all working perfectly.

Yipppeeee:o
[LG V10 General] melorib:
On MM no root, LTE discovery and SignalCheck show LTE signal strength, but neither dont show frequency nor band number :rolleyes:

Is there an app that does :confused:
[LG V10 General] rcyh:
I believe it has to be rooted for the apps to read the freqency data in order to tell the band number.
[LG V10 General] melorib:
Thanks, that is bit of a nonsense...
[LG V10 General] addyhash:
i dunno... there is some logic there, as i found with superuser access granted, the LTE discovery app would contnually diconnect both my sims and reconnect to try and force an LTE connection, so i set superuser access to deny now,.

im gonna upload a weird screenshot... 3g on sim2 now that has me thinking...

And for [MENTION=5579294]brobro[/MENTION]... Seeing my carrier has data disabled thats why i had emergeny calls only when i cinnected to 4g... So i swapped out my sims. Put my second sim in bay one. Hey presto 4g and band 28 showimg in lte app

It says it brings improvements to phone usability and functionality. I'm mostly interested if I loose the bands that I enabled prior to the MM update.

HKG V20d KDZ file

Hi, anyone got the latest HKG v20d kdz file?

Thanks
[LG V10 General] Nickfreedom:
My V10

H961N

arrived today and it is from SEA. It came with firmware version V10a and LGBridge shows an update to V10b, which I suppose to be Lollypop. This FW has Portuguese-Brazil (PT-BR) and it is a bonus for me, as the keyboard will have dictionary in my native language.

I have always had SAMSUNG phones, so LG phones are completely unknown for me and I need help from the community about some points:

1-Does FW from Hong Kong also has Portuguese- Brazil language?

2-Is it safe to flash KDZ file V20C (MM) for Hong Kong on this SEA phone (it is H961N)? Samsung phones have no problem if the new FW is for a phone that has the same identification number or code.

3-If I decide to keep Lollypop FW from SEA and root, is it safe to flash the TOT file for H961N from this thread?

The phone is really good....my only complaint is the proximity sensor (at random: screen doesn't turn on after call or when I take away from my ear OR screen just automatically turns off when I answer a call despite of the phone's location.)

But...the phone is great :laugh:

LG's Official Bootloader Unlock Tool Adds The LG V10 For Europe....so is this a good news for us? easy rooting?
[LG V10 General] ivangundampc:
I guess not. It seems that LG only willing to unlock devices from European market. I really don't understand that why LG choose European market but not the others. Is that they think only the european will unlock their phone?

You can see the list provided:

H815 (G4) for the European market

H850 (G5) for the European market

H960A (V10) for Android M and the European market (Except France)

[LG V10 General] moav:
What would happen if I root via a non H961N root software? Would it mean all features (like dual sims) that are not on the donator root software be inactive? or will it just brick it.
[LG V10 General] tickertapes:
The V10 is not a disposable phone.

The vast majority of mobiles today are glued together and are not designed to be serviced in any way. You cannot swap out the battery when it wears out and some don't allow for upgradeable storage.

The V10 is a premium device which can easily be serviced with basic tools.

I'd imagine a new camera would set you back $10-$20 on ebay and would take no more than an hour to fix.

if you google V10 tear down I'm sure you will find a lovely helpful tutorial somewhere, most likely YouTube.

Regards,

Paul.

only manual selection "sim auto mode" via service menu is working...

P.S. resolved!

strange dependence: I have hkg device, but I need russian language, it is not a problem to change interface language, but i‘ve used the tweak to have russian symbols in dialer also and l‘ve changed one parameter in file "/cust/open_com_ds/cust_open_hk.prop", "ro.rebuild.target.country=HK" to "=CIS", so now, when I change this parameter back to HK - 2g/3g/4g auto mode appears in settings.

[LG V10 General] emdroidle:
I would suggest going to the list of KDZ files, choose either the Hong Kong 10c or Singapore 10b files and use LGUP to update your device to the older revision. At that point you should be able to get root on lollipop.

Do you have 1 SIM or 2 SIMs? One thought comes to mind, could the software be trying to do "wifi calling" for one SIM via the cell network connection from the other SIM? Silly in some ways, but could have value depending upon the plans attached to your SIMs.
