[LG V20 Questions & Answers] arjuna_:
Are you able to use fastboot commands? Such as to write a new recovery img. After that getting root is usually a piece of cake.

Not sure if it's different in Nougat but I think with an unlocked bootloader it really is just a matter of time till we get what we want (root).

As a piece of reference on the T-Mobile G5 we were able to root the G5 only after getting a .TOT with TWRP as the recovery because T-Mobile had somehow removed all the fastboot commands on that device except fastboot OEM unlock. If that is the case with the V20 we need talk to [MENTION=4965298]tungkick[/MENTION] again to manufacture another .TOT for us again.

---------- Post added at 01:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:20 PM ----------

Yes I think so from my previous experience this is almost always the case.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Double0EK:
With the V10 a user [MENTION=4965298]tungkick[/MENTION] created a .tot with root (SuperSU) patched into it. Then use LGUP to flash the .tot.

Once that is done flashing TWRP can be flashed using Flashfire by Chainfire.

Or instead of patching root maybe the .tot can be modified to have TWRP built in...?

Nvm...didnt read the previous comments.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jinkerz9430:
Well. Someone in androiding.how is keeping track seems like it. According to what i read, quoting

"The root method for LG V20 will be a systemless root without doubt. Android Nougat comes with enhanced enforcing SELinux policy for better security on Android devices, so systemless root will be the way to go to get root access without compromising the device’s security."

So, if this is true, at least there is a path to follow.

Here is the link:

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] arjuna_:
Systemless root is almost becoming the default now. And if we have TWRP is pretty much just flashing the systemless root and that's it. In the recent past systemless root has not been a problem.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] bountyman334:
Great...tmo variant or international??

I used it on my g4...Android pay still didn't work.. But systemless root non the less

Systemless is the way...I'll try to create a tot file..if they have released it yet

Time will tell..but unless I can figure it out tonight

[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] PolockOniat:
How guys

I bought a new galaxy j7 2016 a few days ago

I am a root user and I cannot stay without root. But I found out that Samsung has a Knox counter which will get triggered if I try to root or do anything like it

​

And it will void My warenty

So How will I reset my Knox counter after I riot??:crying:
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] creativetrendz:
You cannot reset the Knox counter. Once your device is rooted it "trips" the Knox counter.

But in s5 it's possible to reset Knox. But is it possible for j7 ??

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exxTErno:
Been having this issue for a week now and is pretty annoying, my phone keeps getting this message that USB cable is plugged in or that is charging when is not, battery dies very quickly, I've already googled the issue and tried everything but I've not being able to fix it, even the animation pups up on the bottom like when you plug the charger and it does it repeatedly, does anybody encounter this issue as well and did you find a solution??

Hope you guys can assist me with this since I really love my note 5.

Hope to hear from you guys!!

Cheers!

Could be a battery and/or Power IC related issue.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leten:
The S4 i9500 records 1080p@30fps, 720p@60 and 120fps, why we can't make it record 240p@240fps, or even 144p@240fps, does anyone know how to force this settings in order to see if they work? I don't care about messing around with my phone, I have a nandroid backup, and I don't really need that phone. same goes to the i9505.

Isn't there any program that I can just tell the camera, go for it, do 144p@240fps ? or do 1080p@7fps if I want to?, thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
Why would you record at 144p? You literally can't see anything at resolution.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] defcomg:
On the I9505 it may be possible . The IMX 135 should be capable of 240fps @ 640*360

But I dunno if the SOC supports it
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leten:
Hi, I don't know how you can modify those values or force them, I would try, even if it fries the phone, is that possible?

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] dfogelstrom:
I was in T-Mobile today pre-ordering the V20. The rep let me know about the "free" LG tablet promo and I declined. He then told me if I have an old working paid off smartphone from any carrier in good working condition LG would write a $200 check/credit toward the LG V20. I went home and grabbed an AT&T HTC Inspire 4G and factory reset it. No cracks and phone is in good to great condition. The associate took down the IMEI and verified it and gave the phone back to me. When my V20 comes in there is going to be another box with paid postage to send the old phone back to LG and between 6 to 8 weeks they will send me a check for $200 toward the V20. I'm not sure if it's a cashable check or just a phone credit.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] chipworkz:
Yeap, i am turning in an old Droid Razr MAXX. I already got my email from T-Mobile that my promotion application for it was accepted. I just need to send it back and they will do a 3 point inspection on it. Hopefully it all goes through ok.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] thegameksk:
Are you on JOD?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] dfogelstrom:
JOD? Not sure what that means my friend
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] dfogelstrom:
They said when the V20 comes in it will have a box and return shipping label. LG should be cutting the check, not T-Mobile this time. The quote t-mobile gave me was $0 but they said LG would cut the full amount. 6-8 weeks. We will see how it plays out.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] ElBeaner:
JoD = Jump on Demand
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] dfogelstrom:
Yeah I have the Jump program.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] ElBeaner:
I prefer JoD, yeah I know you don't get insurance coverage but being able to switch phones 3 times a year = awesome
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] dfogelstrom:
When I get a phone I really like, can root and develop I'll keep it until it dies. I had my LG G3 for almost 3 years lol. Updated to Nougat and everything. That phone is still being developed. Anyway, this phone is going to be a holder for me.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] ElBeaner:
For me this phone is a stop gap until the S8 comes out. If it wasn't for the whole Note 7 crap I wouldn't even be getting the V20. I am going to miss Samsung Pay though - I used it everywhere. I have a replacement for it but it won't ship until 1Q next year https://plastc.com/

I used to root/rom and do all that but with Samsungs latest a lot of the stuff I wanted to root for I could do without root. I could install ad blockers into stock browser. I'm on a Google Music family plan so no youtube ads.

Not sure if I'll root/TWRP/Xposed the V20 or not. I never did the Samsungs because you would lose either Samsung Pay or Fingerprint sensor and I wanted both.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] thegameksk:
What the hell? T mobile keeps telling me this promo cant be used with a JOD. I have a Note 7 and I want to return for the V20 and give in my Moto E phone for the 200 check. I was told on the phone, by t-force, and by Jophn when I tweeted him cant use JOD. How did you go about doing it?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] dfogelstrom:
I went Into the store, pre ordered my V20 and brought a old HTC in. I paid $120 in taxes and down payment for the V20 and he took down the IMEI and verified it on his computer. I'm not sure if JOD is the same as the regular Jump! program, but I had no problem doing it at all. The check comes in 8 weeks after you send your phone back to LG and it's only good toward the V20
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] chipworkz:
It makes sense you could not do this with the JOD device you are returning. I have the original Jump program and did not use my current phone that I would have jumped from but rather an old Droid Razr MAXX that I had laying in my draw. The device you are turning in needs to be paid off in full. Like others have mentioned, if you do not have an old phone laying around, you can buy the cheapest 4g smartphone you can find and use it to get the $200.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] thegameksk:
Reread my post. The phone I want to use is paid off and mine. I was told that if you are on jod you can't use this promo even if you have a 4g phone that's paid off.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] KOLIOSIS:
Is your phone going to Ascurion?

I'm on JOD & followed the trade-in link on my Order Status page,used a $30 Straight Talk Alcatel phone for the trade-in,had to get assistance/approval from CustomerCare since the actual item wasn't in the drop-down menu when going thrugh the process.

My pre-paid mailing label pdf shows it going to Ascurion,not LG.

I have a feeling this entire process is half-baked,since I too had other reps stating JOD wasn't eligible.

( My entire process/Ttransaction was documented by Customer Care,as I completed the process while they were still on the phone & they sent texts confirming as much)

Worse case scenario,if it's deemed a no-go after the dust has settled,I'll just hit 'em up for a $30 bill credit to cover the cost of the trade-in phone...........................
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] dcmtnbkr:
he said he made a down payment, that's not JOD that's Jump! 1.0 or 2.0
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] DLovo313:
I just ordered 2 Alcatel 4g phones, $17.95 each with same day shipping from Amazon to process this promotion with the 2 LG V20's I ordered, both are with Jump1.

Here's the trade in link if anyone needs it.

http://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-trade-in.html#tradein

You need your order number and the IMEI of the 4g trade in device.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Drey070:
Lucky you. I went to the store last night and they were clueless. I had to tell them about the promotion etc. . It was a nightmare. I ended up just walking out and calling instead. Wish I just did that from the start was super easy.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] KOLIOSIS:
THX,that's exactly what I did (JOD) immediately after taking delivery of my V20 on 10/19,grabbed the cheapest 4G LTE phone available @ my local WalMart & followed the same link via my Order Status page.

Sending it out today 1st chance I get.

So,we just sit back & wait,or,is there anything extra we/T-Mobile/LG need to do to get the $200 (less trade-in allowance) ?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jooosty:
This is where things get a little confusing, since the value of the phones are $0 (I bought a old prepaid phone as well for $18) How does LG know to send us the $200 E-Check?

I am assuming once T-Mobile receives the device, they forward this information to LG via order # etc...I will just go in the store to make sure this is done right.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] KOLIOSIS:
I had customer care on the line while I processed my trade-in,just a CYA in the event something goes wrong.

I asked about the $0,because the Alcatel I used didn't even show up for trade-in,they said to just pick one of whatever popped-up when selecting the mfg & they made a note of it,the CSRs supervisor said this was OK,to proceed with the trade-in.

I still have a feeling this isn't going to go off smoothly,but,in the end,T-Mobile usually makes things right,if not a PITA to get to that point.

This offer & eligibility seems straightforward enough,but,a lot of CSRs on line & by telephone are saying JOD's aren't eligible,yet,I was able to process a trade-in.

This is one instance where it's better to be on VZW,they've cut out all of the BS & undercut everyone by $100 or more.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] DarkMage619:
Beware! T-Mobile wouldn't let me trade in a BLU advance 4g phone at all for this promotion. Now I have to buy another phone. The BLU phone was unlocked and was hspa+ compatible. In fact it was on their network. I'm pretty bummed.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] KOLIOSIS:
That's exactly why I made sure to get one that was 4G LTE,not just 4G,since the definition of 4G for anything other than LTE is open to interpretation........................

Thanx for posting this, I went in to T-Mobile to preorder the v20 on 10/17 (arrives tomorrow according to UPS) and in the fray of discussing my Note 7 and the tablet they were pushing I completely missed this offer. I chatted with Tmobile just now and scored a Moto E (4G LTE) off craigslist for $30 which has $0 trade in value and LG will give full $200. Making the $25 [?]from Sammy,$200 LG for this phone a really great deal. I also asked about my old Sprint Note 3 & 4, they were worth $60 each.

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] KOLIOSIS:
I didn't do mine in-store, I did it via my Order Status page, the Trade-in link was there.

This was a brand new JOD, not an existing one.

Prior to the Note7, which I had, I was on JOD, but, in the process of turning in my Note7 V1, & getting a loaner phone, the store I went to f***ed around for hours, couldn't process my return, unless I dropped JOD & went with EIP or standard Jump. I stuck with that through Note 7 V2 when it was available & dropped standard Jump when I returned the Note 7 V2 for a refund.

Soooooo, that brought me to this point, placed my V20 order on 10/17 via Telesales with a brand new JOD.

---------- Post added at 12:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:23 PM ----------

Even though I submitted mine via my Order Status page, since I didn't have a code to go this route, I gave this a shot just now & got the following :

This phone number is not eligible for the 2016 October LG V20 Trade-Up offer due to not meeting the device requirement. If you feel this is an error, please contact us at 1-800-937-8997

Getting on the phone now, before I send in my Trade in, which was approved yesterday.

This is gonna get FUGLY, this promotion was half-baked from the get-go.........

EDIT/UPDATE:

Just got off the phone w/CustomerCare via 1-800-937-8997 & mentioned my concerns:

I was assured yet again all will be OK,that I will be approved,just print the label & send in the trade-in,alllow for two billing cycles for a bill credit to show up.

That will be sweet,the timing couldn't be better for the upcoming holiday season.............. :good:
