Sprint Hotspot Fix (not passing data to connected devices)

The following is the fix when you can connect to the Hotspot but get DNS errors or no data being passed to connected devices.

Sprint prevents you from editing your APNs

You can change permissions on your telephony db with this command:

adb shell

su

chmod 666 /data/user_de/0/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db

Grab the ID of your current APN using the following command:

adb shell

content query --uri content://telephony/carriers/preferapn

If the type doesn't contain "dun", copy the existing type string and add ",dun" to the end:

In the following command you would substitute

your current type string for "your_type_here",

and the _id for your_id_here:

adb shell

su

content update --uri content://telephony/carriers --where "_id=your_id_here" --bind type:s:your_type_here,dun

Example

adb shell

content query --uri content://telephony/carriers/preferapn

Output

Row: 0 _id=656, name=Sprint LTE internet, numeric=310120, mcc=310, mnc=120, apn=n.ispsn, user=, server=, password=, proxy=, port=, mmsproxy=68.28.31.7, mmsport=80, mmsc=http://mms.sprintpcs.com, authtype=-1, type=default,mms,supl,hipri, current=1, protocol=IPV4V6, roaming_protocol=IPV4V6, carrier_enabled=1, bearer=14, bearer_bitmask=0, dns1=, dns2=, ppp_dialing_number=ppp_dialing_number, defaultsetting=1, usercreatesetting=0, sim_subscription=0, inactivetimer=0, mvno_type=, mvno_match_data=, sub_id=2147483643, profile_id=0, modem_cognitive=0, max_conns=0, wait_time=0, max_conns_time=0, mtu=0, edited=0, user_visible=1, touch=0

Sprint Hotspot Fix (not passing data to connected devices)

I posted a fix a week back but thought not many had issues due to the response. me2151's internet also worked with the need to edit and he is also on sprint.

Guys brand new to this amazing device. coming from my Pixel XL. Guys, brand new to the lovley unlocked V20 running on Verizons network (US99610d). I am assuming since this Rom any Roms that are H918, that I shouldnt be treading there correct? Only flash Roms that specifically state compatible with US99610d?

Thanks for any insight. I havent taken the leap yet to unlock, and root since I saw there was no way of going back to stock as of right now??!! Is this still true? This phone is a dream come true with all the features ive longed for in one device! You know it has to be good for me to dump my Pixel XL! I love that phone but the DAC/Audio quality is complete crap even with root and Viper!! The Dac in this V20 just put me in awe last night cranking some HIFI Nine Inch Nails in the Tidal app with my M-100"s!! WOW! Any way enough praise, need to get to work.

This phone is a few excellent roms away (and those Roms taking full advantge of this Sick ass quad DAC) from being something VERY special IMHO! Can you guys point me in right direction? Im asuming 1st: Dirty Santa method for unlock/Root, then it looks like only Rom as of right this second is the Deodexed for US996? Im assuming since we have Bootloader unlock and root, Deving will only get better going forward, Having the full potential of the DAC, with a OMS/ Cyanogen Rom on this phone would just make it perfect! Now I know I am waiting a while on those Roms, so I will just look for great stock ROMS in the meantime while CM gets ironed out. But I just want to make sure, there is a way to go back to stock if we had to correct and just need a little push in the right direction? Thanks
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
This is still true. If someone can upload their STOCK SYSTEM ONLY dump of the sprint rom before flashing the rom from op i can make more progress.

does anyone have any advice for someone that seems to get through all the steps no problem but i dont have root?? I am on sprint and follow all the steps np i have the recovery etc but when i get to that last step i dont have root, SU wont work, nothing. This happened before and i just tried redoing it and still no luck, not sure what im missing.

**** I found out i have root right up until step 7/8. Once i install SU again i lose it. I wonder if i should skip this step, installing it twice.

I've rooted my phone. How to Install an Android OTA Update?. when i choose "install now", the phone reboot and goes to TWRP.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
You dont.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] nahepler90:
You cannot take OTA updates whilst being rooted. When there is a viable method of restoring back to stock without root, then you can take the official OTA updates. I have rooted early on with my devices because of that. I prefer ROMS made from the new update sources. Especially AOSP ROMS. And you risk losing root methods with new OTA's patching the exploits.

Can you post what you did because I'm in the same boat? I can get to fastboot but afterward I'm stuck on the Verizon screen with no ADB.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] kberk001:
I did one of the regular resets that would have ended up in me getting to the locked Secure-Boot screen which was only getting me an "error: device '(null)' not found" whenever I did "adb reboot recovery" in c:\adb. So while I figured it was just going to be the same fruitless effort, I took someone else's advice and did up-arrow, and Enter, instead of typing it in. I did it in super rapid fire, hoping beyond hope I'd get an "in" and, amazingly, it worked. Kept doing it throughout the LG Boot Screen and the <!> screen like once a second and it went:

C:\adb>adb reboot recovery

error: device '(null)' not found

about 15 times before I got a line that said:

C:\adb>adb reboot recovery

C:\adb>adb reboot recovery

error: device '(null)' not found

Meaning there was one in there somewhere that actually connected. A few seconds later it FINALLY booted into TWRP and I was able to finish, and then flash Konverged as instructed. Whew!

Hope you have the same good luck I did!

EDIT: Installed the AT&T H918 Konverged Kernel per post #2 and got the static screens.

I couldn't get the static to clear, so I took out the battery and rebooted. It seems to work now.

Software info shows Kernel 3.18.31 Build NRD90M Software Version US99610d.

Does that sound right?

freedom? as in the app that lets you purchase stuff for free illegally?

---------- Post added at 01:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:20 PM ----------

if u wiped caches after konverged it takes 10+ minutes possibly to start up again as it has to optimize on startup again
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] AthieN:
Seriously? Are you really asking for support for a program that was designed specifically to rip people off and steal their apps? Here, let me help you - turn off your phone, put it into the microwave for around 10 minutes on high and you should be set.

Just wanted to mention that WiFi calling does NOT work on the stock VS995 firmware after dirtycow and root.

The option for WiFi Calling is enabled in Settings and setting it up it appears as though everything is fine, except calls do not use WiFi for connection, and trying to make calls in Airplane mode with WiFi on gives a “You must turn off Airplane mode” alert box.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nevea:
Airplane mode shuts off Wifi FYI. And this is a known issue. FM radio does not work either. Waiting for updates, just gotta be patient.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] shoes22:
Right, I know how airplane mode works. Iâ€™m talking about after WiFi is turned back on and connected while in Airplane mode.

And Iâ€™m not pointing it out to complain, Iâ€™m just informing other people so they know that it doesnâ€™t work before they download and flash.

Another word of warning, HiFi quad DAC doesnâ€™t give an automatic gain boost anymore when enabled either.

FM radio wasnâ€™t enabled on stock VS995 anyway so thatâ€™s less of an issue.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] liyafe1997:
It means v20's bootloader is unlocked unoffically (or crakced?)..

So how does it work? Is it use a bl leaked from LG?

or a modified or cracked bl?

What I concern about,, is does it work on LG G4?

It replaces the v20 bootloader with a debug one, and no it will NOT work on any devices that aren't in the op, because it uses phone specific files.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] liyafe1997:
So how you got this debug bl? Can get any one for g4?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nevea:
Devs worked hard with a debugged phone. You are in the wrong place you need to check G4 forums.

you can search the internet for a debug g4 device or get in good with some LG engineers.. or do it the hard way meaning find some exploits and crack the old fashioned way..

but nothing in this method/thread is for the G4.. you will brick your phone if you even tried it

Configuration version B16.LGE.VS995.0

Baseband version ending in AZM-1.68646.1

The next round of updates from any carrier will most likely block this method of rooting. Anything before the December 1st will work on the current listed models.

KEEP IN MIND WHEN A KDZ OR TOT GETS RELEASED IT WILL MOSTLIKELY CONTAIN A UPDATE THAT BLOCKS THIS ROOT METHOD. I am still working on my revert method. I have a backup someone got me and will be testing it out. once it downloads. If this works then I will create a full flashable system img instead of using backups on sprint.

Ahh, I come from the Samsung world of rooting and this is my first LG. Miss my Note 7 but this is a very good device!

This brings my question of:

Once this phone is rooted, how do you shut off the phones ability to download any updates? (Make changes to the system)

Was hoping to believe that this is MY DEVICE and the ability for it to be changed could be disabled. I am sure

developers (perhaps internal app makers for large companies) would be PISSED if software they made could be

disabled in some manner because of a PATCH made by a CARRIER or Google. Android unlike other mobile operating systems we have the ability to SIDE LOAD apps.

We can hope Android 7 builds this "Don't mess with me feature" as holding true to the idea of "This is MINE not YOURS"

Wishful thinking..

Once the phone is rooted TWRP blocks all updates. The carrier will still push them out but they need to reboot to recovery to install. TWRP blocks the install.

The HiFi Quad DAC is not completely broken...there is some effect for high fidelity music files, but the configuration for it is definitely different on this debug kernel than the stock VZW kernel.

There is no longer a gain boost when the quad DAC is enabled, and there’s no longer any improvement for “regular” audio files with the quad DAC enabled like there was before.

you can use the v10 dac fix to enable on all media and use the force impedence mod for impedence gain.
