With security patch for april
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] enigmaco:
I hope this is true, 7.0 is buggy as hell, had it on my nexus 6p and had nothing but problems, it was resolved with 7.1.2 though. They sure took their sweet time with this. Don't think I ever had a phone go this long without a OS update for it.

If you download the lg bridge tools you can update the phone yourself.

Oreo for V30 and G6 in Canada this month. I guess that Oreo for V20 will arrive in april as rumor said.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Jaws4God:
yep, just read this:

https://www.phonearena.com/news/T-M...-Oreo-updates-several-LG-smartphones_id103029

Here are all the LG smartphones that T-Mobile recently confirmed it will update to Android 8.0 Oreo: LG G5, LG G6, LG V20, LG V30, and LG V30+. There has been much talk as to whether or not LG would offer an Android 8.0 Oreo update for the G5, but it looks like LG and T-Mobile have decided to continue to support the old flagship.

What about the poor h990ds?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] enigmaco:
Curious why they been so bad with the phone updates? Phone has been out for 18 months now and this is the first OS update its getting.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] KUSOsan:
From what I've read about LG this is normal behavior for them lol
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] dudeawsome:
Well, it depends on the model I mean the T-Mobile (h918) has been getting pretty good updates. We get pretty consistent security updates and we are getting oreo.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] enigmaco:
They been pretty mediocre as a far as the updates I had the LG G3 and it received quicker updates than the V20 has, and the fact its gotten to the point where Samsung is updating quicker is pretty sad. I'm glad its finally getting Oreo though, only took them almost a year but hey.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Nolia:
On the H990ds , still rocking the 7.0 software. This will be my last LG phone. I had the G3 and it received lollipop and marshmallow so `I thought they do update phones. Now the v20 is still on its original software and for crying out loud even Samsung seem to have improved......
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] deepaktalwalker:
Dear elite fellow users of LG V20 H990DS, enclosed herewith please find below E-mail communication from LG Product Security Update Team regarding regular on time monthly security patches update & Oreo Upgrade for our LG V20 devices around the globe.

Dear Deepak Talwalker,,

This is a staff of LG Product Security Response Team(LG PSRT).

Next security patch will be included in Oreo update.

It means that your V20 H990DS will get the Oreo update soon.

Additionally, the Oreo update is scheduled at the end of May.

Thank you for your patience.

Regards,

PSRT

To above their E-mail again I replied back as follows:

Dear Sir/ Madam,

Thank you for your E-mail. I feel dejected by the same. LG PSRT is either requested to prepone Oreo 8.1,x upgrade by end of March 18 or if possible instead of scheduling stale Oreo 8.1.x for a flagship like LG V20 H990DS may directly jump to Android ‘P’ as soon as it is released. Such huge time lag of 09 months from 21st Aug17 to end of May 18 for the Oreo upgrade is not at all appreciated for a flagship like LG V20 H990DS.

Meanwhile if soonest possible, please arrange for a quick Kernel update for LG V20 H990DS so that undue/undesired/ unsolicited battery drain will be arrested or reduced considerably thereby improving Battery Back up & Screen On Time for the world wide LG V20 devices. Also LG V20 H990DS users will get rid of possessing & carrying nasty power banks all the time & happily wait for Android ‘P’ if a quick proper Kernel update is released for their LG V20 device to improve battery back up & Screen On Time instead of Android Oreo 8.1.x for their LG V20 H990DS.

Thanking you,

Yours truly,

Deepak Talwalker

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] daryula:
they really take their time with this update, at least they're doing it

I wish they will also upgrade v20 to android P later on shorter time rather than make us wait for a whole full year like this
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Odenwälder:
I wouldn't bet on getting Android P, especially after this long update process. It looks like the V20 is EOL.

It's sad cuz it's a unique device but i wouldn't get my hopes too high. It should get two major updates, oreo is the first one, but it looks like the v20 is already one of the last devices on the lg update list.

The security update process is also crap.

Btw, i'm still on 6. november security patch (SEA) H990DS. I'm quite pissed because some H990DS are already on january patch or beyond. Seems like they update only some regions with some security patches. Why? I mean they've already done the monthly patch but don't push it out for everyone. This is bull****. They should release their update for every region at the same week, the models can't be that different. And they shouldn't wait for lazy and silly providers and should update free versions as soon as the update is ready. I havn't got an update since six months on a currently supported flagship model. I thinks it's embarrassing.

Spectre/meltdown/security problems aren't patched since too long, maybe i'll get an iphone next. It's expensive, but they care at least a little bit about their devices... The android update policy is just an offense for customers. Android manufacturer charge nearly as much as Apple but they deliver no competitive software support...
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] deepaktalwalker:
In India we are on 01st September 17 security patch since 12th October 17. Better not say anything as what one can say on this?????

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] nikocc:
Always the same "bull****" with my Android Phones (before HTC Desire HD, Samsung S4, always with replacable batteries). Apple is far much quicker and offers updates 3-5 years, if I'm right? So, next phone will be perhaps a Xiaomi, I suppose they are more reliable on updates. So, dear LG (a multinational company, I'm just coming back from Seoul..) go ahead for our baby LG V20 DS :). Thanks..

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] ssnova:
They said, "schedule", so I guess it was tentative or a goal of end of May. I guess they're behind schedule, hopefully they do it right, and hopefully we'll get a polished version of Oreo 8.1 .. one can hope, :P
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Creative_X:
LG US: "You're welcome. Anyway, the Oreo version is currently being sent out by the carriers to our mobile devices here in US. We are unsure though for the international version."
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] X-Nemesis:
Checked for updates and wow, there was an update. Got excited thinking Oreo, phone reboots, May 1st security update. Still pleased to see my H918 getting security updates.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] ssnova:
My LG-US996 did not get any new updates this month. I'm using my V20 right now... I can't help but think... how much potential this phone has, how it has great hardware, and a decent design, I like the screen size, the resolution, the user replaceable battery, the expandable memory, the 3.5mm(sad to even mention that it's a "feature" these days), the IR blaster, the dual cameras.... the hardware is great, even for today's standards... it's an amazing phone, hardware wise... but software wise, seemingly for all major Android phone makers (Samsung, Sony, LG, etc.)... they just suck at software updates, they're literally dragging their feet to make it happen... they seem to lack the know how or something.... lost in translation... if only there was a more seamless process for this, to make it more efficient and secure.... I know that's why Google came out with their "own" phones( I say "own" because they contract a hardware maker, even LG was used).... but still... it's ridiculous... for how long these premium hardware makers take to release new updates... I'm just venting out, lol... and I still like my V20, nothing like it out there, hardware wise, it's the last of the mohicans, great phone... just behind on software support and updates..officially at least...

I've bought a new phone with Nougat 7.0, and have received in two years one security patch here in Germany. Outrageous from LG. My new Huawei P20 is receiving patches and updates once a month. But I still love my H990DS...

[General Topics] 52midnight:
I'm using my phone to take photos of assembly procedures on my electronics workbench. However, the focus in up-close shots is not sharp.

I've always been curious about the focusing method they use. It's obviously not electromechanical servo as in digital cameras, and my guess is that the image sensors are sufficiently sensitive as to allow the use if a simple "pin-hole" lens, which effectively gives "infinite" depth-of-field. Two questions thus arise:

1. Is my guess about focusing correct, and if not what is the method?

2. Is it possible to use an external lens to sharpen the focus, and if so of what characteristics?

Many thanks for any replies and/or answers.
[Meizu MX] ido_doron:
Hi,

Today I upgraded my Meizu MX5 to Flyme 6.1.0.0G, using Method 2 detailed in the following tutorial: https://forum.meizufans.eu/topic/25...ional-firmware-on-your-chinese-mainland-meizu

It wasn't the first time I used this method to upgrade my firmware version. Unfortunately, this time something went wrong during the process, and though my phone booted up successfully with the new firmeware, I had noticed that I could no longer access my internal storage through the file browser (it crashed everytime). In addition, I couldn't copy files to my phone using PC. It seems like the phone's sd card has become unreadable and I can no longer make any change in it.

I am really hopeless, and don't know how to fix it. All I want now is to go back to my previews firmware (I already have the image). Yet, I don't know how to do that, because I now can't even copy the image to my SC Card... :(

I feel so lost right now, and I'll appreciate any help you might be able to provide!

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] adz3d:
Didn't try this with renovate Ice 5.0 but with 4.0 when I installed Viper4Arise (I belive that's the name) I got no sounds from my speakers. Tried it a few times all the same result.

Just want to know the steps to take so I can get better sound on my phone, or if Viper4android works?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] callumbr1:
Check viper4android threads and renovate thread. There are people with the same issue you, use the search you will find some info. I have viper working flawless on stock rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] cd993:
To quote my response, hope this helps:

Ok here's what I did:

- make sure any previous version of Viper is removed (I had an issue where I'd installed a version over another and it messed my sound up in that even on the lowest volume step it was playing full volume!). I used one of the viper with the aroma and chose uninstall. Then I used Titanium Backup to search for viper and removed another that way.

- flash this version:

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634776829

- if you don't have the Viper app appear then flash an apk of one. I used the pure black from from here (open up the zip and I used the 2.5.0.5 version):

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6OgctcRCMJvdUpSTnZYazhpM2s/view

I'm not sure if I'm just being picky, but I swear that this sound doesn't sound as good as previous setups. Though this is the first version that just works - as previously I needed to use compatibility mode for Spotify and to avoid issues, such as when I would play via Spotify, then load Poweramp whilst playing, it would silence Spotify resulting in me needing to kill both apps in order to resume audio.

Good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] naruto.ninjakid:
Im having this issue as well. Had viper4android on my s7 edge and it was much louder with alot more bass. Very disappointing. Cant figure out why its not as loud as the s7 edge. Any tips on how to boost volume. I'm connecting to Bluetooth in my car on a s8 plus.

Great news!!!

Will try it for sure!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] GuestK0051:
Just tested, works great.

If anybody wants to know, it comes preinstalled with:

Google Calculator

Google Calendar

Google Camera (HDR+)

Google Chrome

Google Clock

Google Contacts

Google Keyboard

Google Search

Google Play Services

Google Play Store

Google Messages

Google Dialler (Phone)

Google Photos

Pixel Launcher

Google Wallpapers

And also FM Radio and Files.

Bonus for all the people having trouble with Picture in Picture mode:

1. If you want to use it with Youtube you will need a Youtube Red subscription (or no. 2)

2. (You will need root for this) Go to Settings -> System -> SystemUI Tuner -> Navigation Bar and either add a left or right extra button. Select the option "keycode" and input the number "171" (without the " "). Choose an icon and thats it. Now open youtube, start playing a video and press the newly created button.

For this you will need to have navbar enabled so it's a little more work (no. 3 might be easier if you're not willing to put a little work into it). To enable navbar go to system/build.prop using a root browser and add this to the bottom on its own line "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" (without the " "). Then just reboot and it should be enabled. If you want to disable it just remove the line and reboot again.

3. Use VLC, it has a Streaming option. Go to youtube, find a video and share it. Choose "Copy to clipboard". Now go to VLC and choose streaming. Paste the link and start playing. Once it loads press the three dots and press the middle icon in the lowest row (looks like a window inside another windows - picture in a picture).

You might need to enable PIP for VLC in settings (go to settings and search for "pip" (without the " "). Find it in the menu and enable it for VLC.

Now for Chrome. Go to youtube.com and find your video. Choose "Request desktop site". Start playing it and press the menu button. Done.

Hope this guide helps, if anybody else asks the same question you did link them to this so there is no need to type it 100 times (I did it like 10 times already in the 12 hours this thread existed)
