[XDA Assist] :
Hello all,

A little background information. - I had an LG G3 - running 5.1.1 - It was originally a Verizon phone - Software version: VS98535B

It is an unlocked phone and I am living in the Dominican Republic on the CLARO phone service now.

I love the phone, it runs great. But it has never updated to MARSHMALLOW. I was told that if I don't put a VERIZON sim chip in that it won't update OTA.

Is is possible to upgrade it manually - (I have tried but had no success downloading the manual update software on my laptop and trying to update my phone. It always says "Phone is currently up to date.")

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hey there !

Is it possible that i can use the Touch X Kitchen to create a rom for touch ? If i get a Touch Rom file and then dump it, will i then be able to use gullums kitchen to add OEM packages and build a rom file that will work on the Touch ? Or does the kitchen only support Prophet ?

~D
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] gullum:
yes it is possible to use it but you need to make some modifications to it

you will need all the OEM folders like OEMAPPS OEMDRIVERS OEM_LANG from a touch device but the kitchen will work with the right files

all these files are placed in the sys folder of the kitchen

folder needed to be changed are

Default

LangDB

OEM_DPI_96

OEM_Lang_0409

OEMAPPS

OEMDrivers

OEMMISC

OEMOPERATORS

SecurityOff

maybe some otheres files are needed from the Touch but I don't know I havn't cooked for touch yet :)

Google services.

This has been draining my battery a lot. Did all the trouble shooting like clearing data in google play services, google play store, updating to the latest security patch, updated all apps, i went ahead and and did a FDR too, but still no avail. I got in touch with google, the representatives state that this is normal. This is really disappointing. I dont wanna install any custom rom or kernel since that is what i normally first do when i get a nexus:D , this being a pixel i wanna leave it stock. Any help would be really appreciated. Thank you.

A little background: I rooted my phone right when I got it over 6 months ago and that was it, no Roms or anything special, everything was left stock after root. Bootloader is still unlocked.

For the life of me, probably because its been so long since I've done it, I can't figure out how to get updates again now that I'm trying to get all the latest security patches and update to Nougat and that's all I want to do.

Anyone link me to a thread or explain what I need to do to be able to flash the latest factory update and update Android? I've tried flashing images in TWRP and it gives me this error:

Man this phone is sweet. Display, sound build quality camera software all awesome. But the one thing I do not like at all is the chins on the is phone. Man they are huge. If I compare it to the Nexus 5 or 5X or the 6P these chins are like twice as big. I wonder what the heck Google was thinking when they did that. No screen protector on mine or case, the phone is a tad slippery as well. But I got that $4.99 a month insurance from Google so that should cover me...

Loving it here too, a bit wary of the battery life so far but it is far too early to draw any conclusions as Android does take a while to settle.

Really impressed with how responsive the phone is - passed it around my colleagues at work and they all commented on it.

It is also really nice to be able to sit down with a phone in my pocket without it jabbing me and being uncomfortable like the 6P was.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] patso23:
Agreed. Initially when the pics started leaking and everyone was freaking out about the chins I was thinking "they're not that bad"... Once in hand I was like "yeah, they're bad".

Phone is much taller than it should have been imho.

Loving everything else about it so far though.

Can't wait to get root.

[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] ghettopops:
I've had the Pixel since Friday but only really spent time with it this afternoon/evening. I also purchased the Axon7 so I ha e been testing that one out up till today. I have to say I do like the Pixel very much. I have no case of screen protector so I was hesitant to use but since I'm 90% sure I'm sending it back I took it to work. Form factor is very nice although I must admit that going from N5x to A7 to Pix I do notice the smaller screen. It's very clean though. Way better than my N5x and not to sure about A7 because I still have factory screen protector on. I can say though it feels very delicate in the hands, like I need to be careful(slippery to). I will straight up admit that if the Pixel was $500 I wouldn't even think twice, it would stay. Just don't think I can justify$730 for a phone. Not with how nice midrange phones are and the price they fetch. Plus I have 7.1.1 on my N5x along with Google Assistant. Who knows though, I still have 8 days left to decide.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] amcolash:
$5*24 months = $120, you paid less for insurance though...
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] subhani:
Really, the chin is no where near as bad as I thought it would be or how people say it would be.

The design is very consistent, symmetrical and balanced. The front looks like a better version of the iPhone, with the omission of the ugly home button. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for the back, even though it has grown in me. If anything, the back is my gripe much more than the chin. Never noticed the bezels.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] INFRNL:
Just got mine yesterday, so not much time on it.

I actually think it has really good grip naked compared to other phones, but i always use a slim case.

My only gripes are bezels and some os/launcher options or lack of options. Otherwise it's a near perfect phone for my needs. Google will fix/add some of my concerns in upcoming updates

Yes price is high but it was built to compete with apple/Samsung, so its priced right. Although appl/Samsung are overpriced...hahaha

I put mine on the t-mobile promo, so i will get some credit back. Won't get the full $325 cause i change phones 1-2 times a yr. This one will probably make a full yr.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] milan187:
Hmm I think the chins are about the same as 5X. The 5X did have that front facing speaker on the front. If Pixel had that I think it would save it from being complained about.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] pipspeak:
yeah... to me the weirdest thing about the bottom chin is that it's just blank. Nothing there except chin -- no button, no speaker, just unused space. Every time I pick up a pixel I just wish they could have made it about 5mm shorter
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] smgrimes:
I'm ok with the chin. Actually the Caseology parallax case changed the way I hold my phone so much I barely even notice (always had a pinky rest on the gigantic chin). The back of this case is amazing for grip.

The only sad thing for me and for lots of others it seems? The downward firing speaker. It sounds clear. It's soo easy to cover. Coming from a 6p and a 5x even, it's just a massive bummer. Even the 5x was aok.

I am completely loving this phone right now. I was a bit weary of it being an HTC phone since my only experience with HTC was the HTC One and it was a TERRIBLE phone all around. The One was probably the worst phone I've ever had, so it left a bit of a bad taste in my mouth.

Other than that, the (IMO) minimalist feel and the fact that the phone just works is making me very happy. So far that's without root or anything. If there were a way to get unlocked hotspot without root that would be icing on the cake. I probably wouldn't even root or mod anything else if I had hotspot working

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] -viperboy-:
Has anyone seen this behavior on the V20? I have Textra set as the default SMS app and randomly, I get a notification from the Messaging app that I have a new text or MMS. The odd thing is that those messages won't show up in Textra, only in Messaging.

So far it seems to be with 1 contact, my brother who is on T-Mobile using an S6. I deleted my convo in Messaging with him when this happened yesterday and deleted his convo with me on his phone and it was fine. Just now, I got an MMS from him and happened again. Seems odd...

I'm not seeing this behavior yet. However, Textra and the Messaging app aren't showing any of my contacts. I keep syncing them, and they show up in the Contacts app, but it's like the Textra/messaging app doesn't have access to them or something.

Edit: Reboot helped.

I'm having this issue as well, so I just went back to the stock messaging app.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Kief_haring:
Same thing. Have you been able to fix it? I'm about to delete Textra, force stop stock app, then reinstall Textra to see if it will start working properly. I noticed that it happens to only one person in my contact list, extremely odd.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Kief_haring:
Just in case anyone else is having this issue I seemed to have found a fix. Go to settings then apps. Select the native messaging app. Revoke permissions, block notifications, switch "message app" to No, switch draw over other apps to No. Delete Textra, restart phone, reinstall Textra, & set Textra as default app (simply go into Textra & begin to use it, it will ask if you want to make it the default). This should hopefully fix any issues anyone might be having.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] KOLIOSIS:
THX,I'll give that a shot (not sure if I'm actually having issues,but,incoming texts seem to be coming in later than they should).

And BTW...............

:good: WELCOME TO XDA DEVELOPERS ! :good:

EDIT: [MENTION=7813625]Kief_haring[/MENTION]

After following the steps you listed,the stock messaging app settings (permissions/notifications) reverted back to enabled.

The message app & draw-over other apps settings remained off (no).

There's some MMS settings within the Textra app that are T-Mobile specific,may need to have some trial & error to get things just right,YMMV.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Kief_haring:
You have to make sure you don't open the native app after setting everything to off. Maybe just set them all to off, delete Textra then reinstall. Don't restart phone as that may be what is enabling the native messaging app settings. I have T-Mobile as well. I enable the T-Mobile MMS over wifi option to on within Textra. Let me know if this works out, if not I'll try to troubleshoot the issue a bit more.

Also thanks for the warm welcome! I've been lurking on this site for over 10 years, just never made an account. Figured it was about time to give some input & ask questions for myself as well. Love this community & want to give back as much as I have taken from it.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Kief_haring:
T Mobile wifi fix. Apologies for not being more clear about that. When you set that you can actually see wifi shut off & 4G take over when sending an MMS. Never have trouble sending a picture after setting that up.

I figured out why this is happening. It's the messages that come in as "Chat" not SMS. Advanced messaging is what is is called... Not sure how to disable yet.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] ghedoicy:
I solved it. VoLTE needs to be turned off. Kinda sucks to trade video calling and VoLTE for Textra, but I can't stand the stock messaging app.
