[LG G5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Clg05:
After exhaustive searching, I've come to the conclusion that my brand spanking new G5 on the Rogers network cannot be rooted. Looks like I'll have to move south of the border to get a US model.
[LG G5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kudalufi:
Does the EU model with the official bootloader unlock not work on Canadian networks? That would be preferable to a US model and a root that might not work after version updates.
[LG G5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Clg05:
[MENTION=4692746]Kudalufi[/MENTION], that might work but it's too much of an unknown for me. I read somewhere along the way that the Canadian LTE frequency bands are unique to Canada. And although I can't see how that would affect a rooting attempt, I'm not going to risk it. A good thought though, thanks anyway.
[LG G5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] God67:
I find that hard to believe... in 10 years I haven't had a phone that these dudes at XDA haven't figured out... the G4 was a pain but the root was still out there.
[LG G5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Clg05:
Fair enough. But - for me - the potential headaches of rooting this particular phone outweigh the benefits. If I can find a no muss no fuss solution, wonderful and I'll take it. And if I can't get it, that's cool too. In that case, I'll go hang out with my buddies or play with my kids instead :)
[LG G5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Anarchist77:
Unfortunately only the handsets THAT LG.. in their wisdom.. deem "unlockable"(EU/European).. will ever have a fully unlockable bootloader.

Unless anyone finds a way.. that so far through all research.. has been for the most part.. A dead end, there will be no rooting ?
[LG G5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kudalufi:
The G5 is long past it's new and exciting phase. The root experts have moved on to better pickings. Platforms where rooting will get them attention, money, fame, and wimmin.

I'm relatively certain there will be no general root for the G5. Which is a shame, because this lost LG my business.
[LG G5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] sal82:
i can guarantee you that the big companies like rogers, at&t, etc. offered LG money to have the bootloader locked. and LG, like the idiotic company that it is, accepted.

what is the real difference between the european G5s and the north american G5s? the t-mobile and the factory unlocked US versions(just recently released) can have their bootloaders unlocked. why can't the rest?

my first LG phone and my last. i'm actually thinking of selling this great phone.
[LG G5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] P00r:
By definition carrier never liked root-able phone as they are bearing the risk whatever are the terms, if your phone brick you may ultimately move somewhere else and cost them money in the process.

Whatever we agree on this is or not is not the point, they do prefer locked phone, a lot of the hardware manufacturer also prefer to see their hardware installed inside locked handset this is why some camera are not as good on the rooted version than the locked version (they protect the firmware that work only fully on locked handset)

As far as I know LG never sold the G5 claiming they would support unlocking boot loader on all the SKU... I will always prefer an unlocked device over a locked one. I bought mine used and it was a good deal, but I would not purchase a new phone at full price if it is locked. Some company are better in this regard. Unlocking should be a matter of choice for any non-subsidized model.
[LG G5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] mickyarams21:
I had an H840 that cannot be unlocked, I spent countless hours searching online and following spam tutorials to get it unlocked but no luck. In the end I sold it on eBay hoping to get about £200 for it but to my surprise I sold it for £264 and I bought a used H850 for £240. Now I have a rooted device.
[LG G5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] robdhayes:

[LG G5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] P00r:
Try this for bootloader unlock, can't hurt..

https://www.change.org/p/lg-electronics-unlock-lg-g5-bootloader-for-all-varients?
[LG G5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] BIG_BADASS:
The reason Canadian G4 has root, is because there was a loophole in the Android 5.0 software that allowed you to do some code injection and root it without unlocking the bootloader. But that was patched in Canadian G4 6.0. And the G5 came even later, so for sure the loophole has been patched. Now, bootloader is everything, and if it is not unlocked, you're out of luck when it comes to gaining root access.

I can act as webcam for your PC. You can't use it as webcam in messenger on your phone. You can only send pics with your phone using the camera.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] sarvesvara.dasa:

looks like... either I was not clear in my question... or I have contradicting answer...

xmoo - I asked for the using of front camera as webcam on the phone itself - which Jewcookie has said 'not possible'...

xmoo - if it is possible to make the front camera as webcam on the TyTn-II itsef... let me know the software :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] xmoo:
It;s not posible to use it while being on msn on your phone. But you can use the phones camera (dunno front but the back works) as a webcam when linked to the computer (msn on computer). I forgot the software name, it is actualty for the TyTN, but it works for the TyTN II. You could try to search there or start a topic there.

[General Questions and Answers] taboo_:
Hey all,

I just discovered the option to encrypt my external SD card in Android. I like the idea as without it anyone can get data off my SD card if they steal my phone.

However, if my device ever dies presumably that card will never be recoverable as the decryption keys will be lost with the dead device. Is there anything I can do pre-emptively to protect myself from this scenario?

Presumably the encryption keys are stored on the phone somewhere. Can they be backed up and stored on my PC or something to ensure I can always recover the SD card later?

[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] Clg05:
Hi all, just wondering about seemingly new behaviour in Nougat. A few days ago I finally ditched my old Galaxy S4 (running lollipop) for a new LG G5 running Nougat. In Nougat settings, I can see "Apps" instead of the familiar Lollipop "Application Manager" section. But that's fine. My question is when I select an app, Nougat only gives me the choice to force stop it. In lollipop, I could do that, as well as choose to clear cache and clear app data. So the quesion becomes, how can I clear a given app 's cache? Or is that already done when I force stop? And how do I clear app data for a given app in Nougat?

Darn new OSs give old guys like me a headache lol. Cool new phone though lol...

Not receiving notifications when you should be? Here's a Huawei oddity that we've found to be irksome with some apps not sending alerts/notifications even when all settings are apparently correct (WhatsApp is our problematic one). It's to do with EMUI's strict power efficiency. If you stop receiving notifications try this (to access Ignore Optimisations): access Apps (method above) > hit the blue settings cog icon to the bottom > select Special Access under the Advanced tab > Unrestricted Data Access. Here apps can be granted always-on data irrelevant of what other settings state. source: www.pocket-lint.com/news/140204-hua...-tricks-take-charge-of-your-mate-9-p9-honor-8

[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] NoriSilverrage:
Just got a Moto Z Play and as part of it I'm switching to T-Mobile.

Got the phone a few days before the SIM card, so I put TWRP on, rooted it and put the 7.1.1 LineageOS rom on.

Thought everything was working fine. Internet works, everything seems stable. However, I can't make calls. Or rather I can make one call after a reboot and then nothing. The SIM info shows cellular network disconnected. Tried two sims.

Any ideas?
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Jimi Mack:
Just taking a shot but did you call T mobile and verify the Sims are activated.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] NoriSilverrage:
I haven't contacted them yet. Oddly though internet works fine. So I think the SIM is good.

I did find that if I turn enhanced LTE off that calls work. So it seems like voLTE is what's broken. Possibly from the ROM.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] flashallthetime:
I believe you're correct in assuming volte is broken in LOS, there on going discussions and yes you'll need to reboot after every call.

I would assume this goes for all custom ROMs (3 lol) for our MZP, as everyone has used alberto97 git to build from.

OK, Quick and dirty as usual...How to get working hotspot bypass on rooted nougat. It works on initial root or you can edit the build prop back to 310000 n reboot. Okay, so more or less follow the rooting method in godpowerrr's thread unless you're already rooted then pickup at the adding APNs below:

https://xdaforums.com/sprint-s7-edge/how-to/sm-g935p-spr-root-nougat-7-0-data-t3568780 Thanks be to [MENTION=7523343]godpowerrr[/MENTION]

Follow all the steps, except just leave wifi on while you run through the process.

When you get to the steps with the build.prop edits don't do it yet.

Go into settings-connections-Mobile Networks-Access Point Names: click "add" in the top right.

Add this APN;

Name: Whatever you want to name it.......LTE HOTSPOT

APN: n.ispsn

Proxy: not set

Port: not set

Username: not set

Password: not set

Server: not set

MMSC: http://mms.sprintpcs.com

Multimedia Message Proxy: 68.28.31.7

Multimedia Message Port: 80

MCC: 310

MNC: 120

Authentication Type: not set

APN type: default,mms,dun <-----no spaces after commas

APN protocol: IPv4/IPv6

APN roaming protocol: IPv4/IPv6

Turn APN on/off: APN tuned on

Bearer: LTE

Mobile virtual......: none

Mobile virtual.....: not set

NOW CLICK SAVE AND IT WILL DISAPPEAR- don't worry, it'll re-appear later.

now go back to the root guide and pick up where you left off changing the build.prop values. when you change to 310120 the new apn will populate.

This is where you need the MSL- manually select the new APN you created. Either way you should have a full functioning hotspot.

To sum it up you can add a Custom APN by changing the build.prop, creating the APN, saving, and changing it back. Have fun

I'm trying to bypass the tether check for an AT&T S7 (G930A) on Nougat... You happen to have any insight on how to port this process?

Thanks for the info, I'll do some research myself to see if I can get anywhere with it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] izzibew26:
1st look at your normal LTE APN and write down all the info.

I'm not sure exactly what at&t has for the equivalent of ro.cdma.default_numeric but I would suppose it has something similar. search for the combined combination of your MCC and MNC. that's the number you'll want to change. as you can see from the OP, sprint is 310, and 120. so the combined numbers are 310120. you'll see the numbers when you look at your APN.

edit the build.prop line to 310000. reboot and go through the op steps to create(add) an identical APN to the one you wrote down. settings-connections-Mobile Networks-Access Point Names: click "add" in the top right. The only changes that would be made would be the name of the APN and the addition of dun to the APN type line. everything else will look just like your stock APN from earlier. make sure to click save and it will disappear. then change your build.prop line back to what it originally was and reboot. it should show up in the list of your APNs now. then, using your msl and ##data#, go into apn settings and select the new apn you created. Hope it works. pm me if you run into roadblocks, also i'd like to know the build.prop/APN info if there are issues.

I have completed the whole process and was able to enter the new VPN. However, when changing the buildprop back I am unable to select the new access point. I have tried the ##DATA# and nothing happens. Any ideas?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] izzibew26:
Not sure why the ##data# dialer code wouldn't work unless you rooted at the same time and possibly missed a step or disabled the app it triggers. Make sure you click "save" after you have the new APN all written up, then it will show up when you change your build.prop back to 310120. Also make sure your editor has been granted root permissions. Just throwing a few things out there, there are so many little things you could've possibly missed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] rideblue193:
It turns out, I'm pretty stupid. Apparently didn't know how to spell DATA. That or it just started working randomly. However, when testing I still get "You have not subscribed to the Hotspot service"

I've checked and after the ##DATA# and entering my MSL I'm able to select the custom APN. It just wont allow tether. I don't know if it makes a difference, but I'm rooted on 7.0 Nougat S7 Edge
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] izzibew26:
double check the apn you selected, once you have the "dun" segment there it shouldn't say that. also might want to throw in a full powerdown and reboot, might be residual.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Disc] rideblue193:
Thank you for the help. Without it and your guide I wouldn't have gotten it working. I combined your guide with another (both had different settings) and found a combination that works for me.
