Is there another link to the v20 KDz file?

I can extract it to a cab file, but the cab file isn't a valid archive and can't be extracted further. I've tried WinZip, 7zip, WinRAR, and cmd propmt. Nothing but error messages stating that it isn't an archive or the file can't be opened.

KDZ for June 1st security patch

Sorry if this is dumb or already answered but can thisKDZ be flashed onto a vs995 with the June 1st 2017 security patch? Thanks

could i flash the verizon kdz on to a us cellular phone
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
I rooted my vs955 with dirty santa all went ok I'm rooted now with no vibration but still have the corrupt boot screen.

I lost internet and can't figure out how to fix it. Everything else works. Calling out ,receiving calls texting just no internet inside or out, Wi-Fi does work though.

Can I flash the kdz back to stock ? Think that would fix my internet issue. Right now I'm alpha Rom 4.0 nougat vs9951Ca. With the May 1st security I think.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] lxwx:
Didn't meet the similar problem on my vs995,but I think the problem is caused by an incorrect efs.

Flash a kdz will completely make your phone back to stock. I have a vs995 and I rooted it, flash the us996 kdz for base. It works good.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
I got it fixed was a Sim card issue got another one all working now, Yeah that's what I did when I found out it was a card problem I hit myself in the head had to root all over again. I'm up and running now alpha 4.0 nougat. Gonna jump on the Oreo soon. I wanna make sure I can go back if I don't like it. Thanks
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] noidodroid:
Which build of us996 did you use as a base? I went straight ahead with 12A VS995 and had a bit of trouble getting into fastboot on the last steps due to button issues with this device. Fixed it though and everything is working fine with first test ROM the Alpha Omega latest build. Dont like it though so switching to something else. Would be great to get Havoc working on this but this device is a friends so i don't want to risk bricking it.

---------- Post added at 06:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:12 PM ----------

I also found a way to get twrp on the VS995 12A without screen static. Took me an hour but i figured out a button combo and series of files to flash back and fourth before it worked. Not sure exactly which did the trick though and not going to replicate it to find out. I will make a thread and anyone who has the VS995 and wants to give my steps a try can do it. I have to finish this device for a buddy now and return it.

Hi folks,

Im not sure if this is the right place to post my thread, but I need help for my experiments on my powersaving module, which I developed for observing how different parameters such as GPU scaling, CPU scaling,

screen brightness scaling and Vibration Strength scaling could have an impact on the overall battery runtime of a smartphone.

For these experiments I developed a simple application which should stress the battery and therefore targets the parameters I stated previously. Note that all the parameters are scaled down progressively, meaning that reaching 90% [P9] , 80% [P8] , 70% [P7] etc. of battery charge, the parameters are scaled down according to this table:

|Max screen| Vibration| Max | Power | Max

|brightness | (%) | CPU | Bias | GPU

| (0-255) | | (GHz) | ( �) | (0 - 6)

----------------------------------------------------------

P9 | Default | Default | Default | 50 | 0

P8 | 150 | Default | 1958.4 | 50 | 1

P7 | 100 | Default | 1728.0 | 100 | 1

P6 | 40 | 30 | 1574.4 | 100 | 2

P5 | 30 | 30 | 1267.2 | 100 | 3

P4 | 20 | 30 | 1190.4 | 200 | 3

P3 | 10 | 0 | 1190.4 | 200 | 4

P2 | 5 | 0 | 1036.8 | 300 | 4

P1 | 3 | 0 | 1036.8 | 300 | 5

P0 | 1 | 0 | 960.0 | 300 | 5

My observations:

- Without scaling any parameter i.e. leaving the smartphone in its original state, it runs for approx. 4 hours

- Scaling down ALL parameters together, the phone runs for approx. 6,5 hours

- Scaling down ONLY the Screen brightness parameter, I can extend the run-time by approx. 1 hour, which proves that the screen brightness is the main cause for poor

battery runtime.

- Scaling down ONLY the vibration strength does not extend significantly the battery runtime

My module seems to behave correctly, however I cannot figure out the following issue:

- Scaling down ONLY ONE parameter, say CPU or GPU, I cannot see any siginificant improvement in battery runtime, sometimes there is even no actual impact !

I was looking on the internet and even on scientific papers for the cause of this behaviour, but I wasn't lucky !

Maybe you guys can figure out what the actual reason is behind this behaviour !

Thank you :)

Hi..

Yesterday, i where to flash my Touch with a new ROM. But before the flashing was done, the Touch frooze completely, and now when i power it on, it stays on the "smart mobility" screen.

So... anyone know's if it's possible to fix this or what?

Please help me :(

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ludester:
Hold the red and green button down and press and hold the power/reset button on top and wait until a screen pops up.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] LordManhattan:
I've done that. It dosn't help.. I don't think i've got a ROM in my device now.. How can i flash it then?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] blazingwolf:
Typically you put it in bootloader mode and then reflash as normal. Are you not able to get in to bootloader mode?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] LordManhattan:
I can on a good day.. The phone is very unstable for the moment.. But when i try to flash a new ROM from Bootloader, Active Sync can't detect the device. Is that normal?

The phone is unlocked, and it shows "USB" on the screen when i plug the USB in Bootloader..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cronexy:
Yes. All you have said above is absolutly normal. When you see the "USB" just flash it. Have you ever flash your device before?

I did a little digging around with a gembird ethernet adapter connected to my stock unrooted H815 international. ifconfig revealed an eth0 network adapter. It also had a little traffic, but not much. I must also say that I had no IP Address on the eth0 interface, but the adapter was recognised. I must test it a little further, since I am now at work.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xV1CT0Rx:
in Developer Options there is an USB Mode named "RNDIS (USB Ethernet)" maybe that has sth to do with the ethernet adapter, i can't test it as I haven't got an ethernet adapter
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMadScientist:
I dont know for sure there but i used mine as a wifi adapter.

Picked up my wifi in my house and usb tethered it to pc

One of my pcs dont have wifi and its a long way from my router
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scandiun:
Ok my Lg G4 has the RNDIS option but that's meant for USB tethering, by that meaning connecting the smartphone to 3G/4G data and then share that internet to a computer as guest over USB. What I want is, either the opposite (reverse USB tethering) or connect the RJ45 adapter directly to the smarphone over OTG, with no computer in the middle.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treysis:
But they don't allow you to share your phone's mobile data to your ethernet, do they?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scandiun:
Yes the LG G6 allows to use Tethering to share the mobile data to your computer over USB cable. In Windows 10 the new connection will appear as "LGE Mobile Remote NDIS Device". Couldn't test it with LG G4 or Samsung Galaxy S8 because I don't have them anymore, but should work, I think most phones have that option.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treysis:
But that's again over USB. I was interested in using the ethernet from the ethernet adapter.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scandiun:
Draw a picture of the actual physical connections you require.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treysis:
Like I said: use one of those USB-Ethernet adapters that this thread is about to share the phones mobile data over ethernet:

Internet ----(mobile data)----> smartphone ---> USB-OTG ethernet adapter from this thread ---> ethernet device (e.g. access point or PC)

Ethernet device should then use the phones internet connection. But I couldn't find an option that would allow tethering over the connected ethernet adapter. Only direct USB-to-PC (RNDIS), WiFi, or Bluetooth. You screenshots suggests its not different on that device neither.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scandiun:
Doing that doesn't work, USB tethering is disabled. It's a very uncommon scenario, you need root for that.

I wonder why you don't want to use USB on the computer instead of ethernet port.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treysis:
[MENTION=1012949]scandium[/MENTION] of course it's disabled, because that would not be USB-Tethering. The Ethernet adapter is recognized as a normal hardware device, like a mouse or a keyboard that you connect via OTG. It should be treated same as the internal WiFi adapter in hotspot mode.

I was hoping that the Ethernet adapter doesn't only allow to connect to a network, but maybe also use it as a 4G-router. Yes, real use cases are limited and it's more for the sake of being able to do it. I could imagine maybe in a weekend house where you don't have a connection, you could use this to share your phone's data, without having to take the SIM out. Or if you're in a hotel room and you want to use more than 1 device...I don't know...like I said, it's more to play around on what is possible.

Simply because there are more oneplus 3's in customers hands than 3T.....But I think they could unify now with beta 10, the timeframe is off for Nougat before end of month, with Beta 10 just dropped.
