Nice work again! You have provided updates for my US996 Unlocked that LG somehow could never accomplish.

Thank You!

I'll never understand why LG never supported the US996 Unlocked...

Are you able to turn on "OK Google" detection (and have it stay on)?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] nickthaskater:
Yes. Like I said, no issue with 10n.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] txenglan:
Ok, thanks. I must be wrong then. Time for a fresh flash I guess...
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] txenglan:
Clean installed 10o. Same problem with smart lock not working with trusted location so I'm not imagining it. Actually, it'd might work if location is changed (even by a degree) but inevitably fails later. OK Google detection now working.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] hhjkl:
Has anyone gotten Advanced Calling to work on Verizon with 10o?

I've tried disabling/enabling on Verizon's website, gotten the text messages, etc. Still greyed out.

*#*#*4636#*#* doesn't allow me to get to the phone info screen.

Dirty flashed from 10f.

Tried going to 10n, same issue.

Tried going to back to the 10f backup I took before flashing 10o, but it looks like I ****ed up and deleted it somehow. So flashed back to 10f, but getting all sort of force closes.

Probably going to do a clean wipe and install, but have no idea which one to flash. 10k/l have been removed and I can't find any links to any mirrors of them, and neither 10n/o seem to work with Verizon advanced calling, which is a requirement for me.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] DrPhant0m:
I had the same issue with Advanced Calling... and what worked for me (YMMV) is that you...

Log into your Verizon Account (or call Verizon and ask them to do the following...)

DISABLE advanced calling (or HD calling, or whatever they might call it).

Wait for a bit (I waited a few hours, but you may be more/less patient)

RE-ENABLE Advanced/HD Calling via your Verizon account/customer service rep

Restart your phone (though it may start working without a restart)

When I did this... it started working again.

Extra credit: There is an app called Shortcut Creator or something (just install the one with the icon of a hand with pointer finger extended) that will allow you to access otherwise-hidden menu screens. You can create shortcuts to them, as well. I used this to get to the HD Calling settings screen to confirm the settings, but I couldn't actually change anything.

Good luck!
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] hhjkl:
I did this previously and it didn't work. Maybe I'll try removing it when still on 10f, then enabling when flash 10o.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] hhjkl:
Clean wipe and flash of 10f and advanced calling works, flashed 10n and it no longer works. Did the verizon disable, wait an hour, enable thing and it still doesn't work.

Seems like I might be stuck on 10f, which is annoying because it requires a clean wipe to get back to (just flashing back and wiping cache leads to all sorts of force close issues)

Am I just using the wrong ROM? I have a US996 non US-Cellular.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Question Can I dirty flash 10o over 10n Just wondering. Has anyone done this. Mainly I just want the security updates updated. or should I not even bother. Thanks

Oh I have the I have a US996 Unlocked
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] feretio:
Has anyone had an issue with receiving SMS texts since updating to 10o?

I haven't received any texts since updating and I'm suspecting that either my database has gotten corrupt or the database for texts has moved.

I use Textra for texting and used Backup To Gmail to backup my texts to my gmail account. Now, Backup To Gmail crashes when i try to open it. The Messaging app that came with my V20 doesn't even open. I tried installing Google Messages and that won't load any of my old texts.

In my research, I found various directory paths where the text database mmssms.db might/should be located and found:

/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/database (which is a symlink to: )

/data/user_de/0/com.android.providers.telephony/database

which is where mmssms.db is located.

and someone else mentioned:

/data/data/com.google.android.gms/databases

which contains icing_mmssms.db along with other files that end with mmssms.db.

After I backed up all of these files, I tried restoring Textra, com.google.android.gms and com.android.providers.telephony from the Titanium backup I made before I updated from 10n to 10o and rebooted but it doesn't seem to help.

Does anyone have any other advice? I'm not opposed to wiping my texts and starting over but if I go that route, I'd still like to somehow restore my old texts either from my Gmail account or export/import the sqlite3 database to XML. I'm also not sure how to properly wipe my texts to start over.

Thanks!

Upon further investigation, I found this error in logcat:

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] nickthaskater:
I dirty flashed at first and was having terrible performance and various random FCs. Wiped and started fresh and all has been well with 10o.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] feretio:
I seem to have fixed my own problem. I'm not sure if it's the correct fix but it seems to be working thus far.

I copied my /data/user_de/0/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db file to my Linux system, then used sqlite3 to change the user version:

$ rpm -qf /bin/sqlite3
sqlite3-tools-3.17.0-2.2.mga6

$ file ./mmssms.db
./mmssms.db: SQLite 3.x database, user version 86

$ cp mmssms.db mmssms-new.db

$ sqlite3 mmssms-new.db
SQLite version 3.17.0 2017-02-13 16:02:40
Enter ".help" for usage hints.
sqlite> PRAGMA user_version;
86
sqlite> PRAGMA user_version = 84;
sqlite> PRAGMA user_version;
84
sqlite>

$ file mmssms-new.db
mmssms-new.db: SQLite 3.x database, user version 84

I then copied the new mmssms.db file back to /data/user_de/0/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/ on my phone and made sure the permissions and owner were set correctly:

elsa:/data/user_de/0/com.android.providers.telephony/databases # ls -l

I will pay a $50 bounty (via PayPal) for anyone who can solve the poor rural signal reception on my US996 model V20 - It was weak when new, and it has been weak with every update, including 10n that I installed from here.

I get 0 or 1 bars in places that other phones get 2 or 3

and if I am within eyeshot of an AT&T cell tower, other phones get 5 bars, this phone gets 3 :(

same issue using Verizon, by the way.

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Different modems work, you have to try different ones that are made for your phone, I've changed modems on my old droid charge and had better service. You also might want to clear your modem stats. I don't know how to do that with this phone but on my turbo there was a file you could flash that would clear them don't know if it would work on this phone might want to ask around.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] titanworm:
My device is LZ997, I changed it to US996, after that the signal is no service and can not use 4GLTE. I used this modem and i had stronger signal and also use 4GLte. You can use it or not.

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] nickthaskater:
I haven't checked the file itself, but a UCL rep told me the update was pushed at the end of April, so I'm guessing it's the April update (10o was pushed at the end of February and included the February security update).

I'll correct myself if the situation is different after I actually install the update.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] eladelh:
I mainly consume media on my phones, so how is the experience of netflix on the s8 plus? Without headphones is it watchable or the mono audio sound terrible?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] gman88667733:
I do not own an S8+, however, reading consumer feedback about it, the speaker is not particularly good. It is bottom facing (so already is not ideal for media playback) and not the best quality speaker in the first place.

If someone with the phone disagrees, feel free to update this post!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] TJCacher:
I also am an avid music/ video consumer. While I love the S8 models (and before them the S7's), we are poorly served by the single bottom firing speaker for this usage.

I find the speaker clear and loud enough, but if you're used to stereo front facing speakers, I'm pretty sure you're in for a disappointment if you're anything like me, depending on how much of your usage is for this particular purpose.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] FloM94:
before my s8 I had an iphone 7 plus and before that a old nexus 6. Both much more pleasant when it comes to media consumption. When on my nexus or iphone, I watched a lot of youtube but now with the s8 no single video - all on my ipad. Even though I have a stereo speaker mod that does help a bit. Maybe it is also because of the smaller display of the s8 but all in all the full 6 inch and stereo speakers of my nexus 6 with the 2560x1440 amoled display was the best experience so far.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] ewokuk:
It's the stupid 18:9 aspect ratio the S8 has. if it was the correct ratio at 16:9 it would properly fill the screen instead of leaving massive black bars on the sides and just looking stupid. My next phone will be back to a proper 16:9 ratio (if there is anyone left making them by then!), I'm sick of this long stretched crap already, it has no use what so ever.

aside from that, the stupid speaker placement means whenever i play a game, or watch a video, my finger goes RIGHT over the entire speaker in the natural position I would hold the phone, so I have to hold it awkwardly to get any sound out of it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] FloM94:
yeah the 18:9 is at this time just a pain in the neck. The only "positive" thing is the smaller form factor of the 5.8" phone. But I think that this new aspect ratio is the future, so sadly this may sound.. Most of the apps and nearly all games are 16:9, this does take a loong time that every developer switches to 18:9 - just like the process of switching USB A to USB C.

I think even with the small bezels on top and bottom of the s8 would have allowed it to place dual front facing speakers. The old nexus 6 had also very small bezels on top and bottom and the speaker was just great. The fact that the galaxy`s now all have to be waterproof is also downgrading the speaker in its soundquality i think...
[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] herick.sa:
hello, good morning, this is my first topic, I do not know if I'm posting in the correct location, if not, please correct me.

I bought a moto z2 play and a camera error resulted in a big problem, first asked to restart and so I did, the second time came the problem, it just does not stay more than 3 seconds on the welcome screen, I already tried hard reset , I already installed another stock, already tried to start in safe mode and nothing, unlocking oem and debugging usb are disabled, I contacted the motorola to ask the unlock code oem for the code obtained by fastboot and they told me that it would not be possible give me such a code, and now, is there anything I can do?
[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] dainezi:
This doesn't seem to be a modding problem, looks more like hardware... so I'd strongly reccomend you NOT to void your warranty by unlocking bootloader. Send it to an official repair center and hope they either fix or replace the phone...
[LG Watch Sport] admisi:
I'm getting some strange activity on the watch:

When it runs out of battery and shuts down, I place the watch on the charging cradle while it is off, and it starts to charge as normal. It slowly charges up to 25% as usual, and then suddenly it's at 100%!!

When I boot up the watch it is at 100%, but then starts to lose charge very quickly. It's almost like the battery has become uncalibrated. I have tried running it down and then fully charging it while off and leaving it on the charging cradle for hours etc, but no help.

Anyone else with this problem, and any suggestions? (Can't send it in for warranty repair etc... cos I live in UK where they don't sell it, so had to buy it off eBay, it's a W280A which had an AT&T sim in it)
[LG Watch Sport] admisi:
I think I may have fixed this, I'll have to wait and see how long a full charge lasts, but for the first time while powered off, it charged from 1% to 100% by 1% each time, I know because I watched it - it's been driving me crazy! So something had screwed the calibration of the battery it seems!

The fix was to keep the watch on until it powered itself off with no battery. Then try holding down the centre crown and turning it back on again - mine would get to the Google Circles on the boot animation, and then black out again - and I did this repeatedly, with the LG logo flashing up, then Google, then the circles, then it turned itself off again - so I knew there was more battery there (yes, I know these batteries keep a reserve so they are never fully discharged, and it's not good to take them all the way down, but I was only getting the thing to charge 20% or so before it showed 100). So I thought, how to keep the screen on, I can't keep turning it on again and again.

So I put it in fastboot mode, hold down the centre button and the lower button and it will bring up the fastboot screen - and I left it with the screen on, which seemed for like hours. When the screen finally went off, I tried turning it on, no LG logo screen, tried booting into fastboot, nothing - the watch was truly dead! So I held my breath and placed it on the charger. After a few moments, the white flashing ring appeared and 1% appeared in the centre, yaay!! I then watched it, repeatedly every few minutes pressing the centre crown to check the battery while it cycled through every percent until it reached 100! Now the watch is on and I am monitoring the discharge. I will let you know how it goes (before I couldn't get more than 4 or 5 hours out of it with all sensors off!)

So for all those that are getting exceptionally poor battery life out there, your watch may be lying to you - when it runs out of juice and powers off, before charging it again, turn it on again and again until nothing appears on the screen, or enter fastboot/recovery and the let the screen drain the rest of the battery. Obviously I take no responsibility if it messes up your watch.
[LG Watch Sport] admisi:
I can confirm that this has fixed the problem. I'm getting easily one day out of the watch now, even after going out for a 2 hour half marathon mid day. This watch rocks now!
[LG Watch Sport] Grumps:
I tired your procedure but no luck
[LG Watch Sport] DooHaBucS:
Also can confirm the fastboot drain worked - took 3+ hours (I went to bed) on high brightness but then recharged in about 2 hours and has 60% left after 8 hours use (battery saver and I turn screen off manually).

Thank you Admisi I might try this for other devices forgetting where the bottom of the battery is. Good stuff.
[Moto E4 Plus Questions & Answers] Danny Mx:
Hi guys ! I rooted my device moto e4 plus MTK XT1772 yesterday. It was working great and I decided to install substractum theme engine , I downloaded a theme and applied , substractum sent me a message that I need to reboot the system to make some changes. I did it and now my device got stuck in the motorola's main logo , nothing happens , the system is not loading , I dont know what to do . I used Twrp to clear cache and data folders and nothing happens . I decided to delete the substractum folder and it is the same .

Unlocked bootloader is ok and TWRP correctly installed but What do I need to do or install to make it work ?, Do I need to install an image of XT1772?(which I don't have). Anyone here knows how to solve this issue?

Thanks in advance. :)

I solved the problem. Thanks anyway. :) My device is working.
[Moto E4 Plus Questions & Answers] Spk1690:
How to solve yours problem. Tell the exact details.
[Moto E4 Plus Questions & Answers] Danny Mx:
I used TWRP to check into the folder where the substractum was installed and erased it then I looked for the theme.apk which was giving me problems (harmony.apk in this case) I deleted it and rebooted the system, I entered in twrp and cleaned data and cache and then I rebooted. That´s all.

1- Recovery mode to enter in TWRP

2-Mount

3- Select "System" because "Data" and "Cache" are selected by default

4- Return to main menu.

5-Advanced - File Manager

6 -System - app

or

6-System-priv-app

look for the folder which is giving you problems so you need to remember the name of the app that you installed or the one you think got you in trouble, delete them and then return to the main menu and reboot the system . I hope this help you. (sorry for bad english I´m not good at it .)
