[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Solid answer is very easy if you search. For instance, besides dedicated threads discussing the topic, the first place to always look is the Development Section. Look down in the

ROMS, RECOVERIES, KERNELS development section

and see there are TWRP -- and ROMs -- for the US998, H930 and H930G. Especially, if there's TWRP, there's root. ;)

This has also been discussed thoroughly in the Bootloader Unlock and Root thread, which has been going since last September:

Unlock bootloader and Root

https://xdaforums.com/lg-v30/help/unlock-bootloader-root-t3665927

The answer hasn't changed since last September (2017), after the V30 was announced but before it was released. On the very first page (Septebmer 2, 2017), I said for

North American users should ignore the carrier variants and wait for the open market US998.

The rest of the thread is mostly arguing about that, and looking for ways to root the U.S. carrier branded modes -- but six months later, look where we are.

But the current

VERY last post of the 50 pages has a complete wrap up (see the bottom part of that post) and answered your question.

. So, you could have read the FIRST page or the LAST page of the aptly titled "Bootloader Unlock and Root" thread, and there's your answer.

But here's the list, since you didn't even look in the dev section:

Open Market US998 V30 (not to be confused with the U.S. Cellular US998). Open market US998 is only sold by authorized 3rd party retailers, like B&H Photo, NOT by a carrier.

European H30 V30

One surprise was the European H930G, was added to the bootloader unlock list -- which is the European V30+. Surprise, because it's sold by an Italian carrier TIM and those don't usually get bootloader unlock with full flash commands. But it's Europe, so guess they have to do things differently over there. The other surprise is the open market US998 V30+ cannot (yet) be bootloader unlocked and rooted, yet the European V30+ is listed. We suspect it's because LG is in the midst of releasing yet another V30ABCD.

So, those three have bootloader unlock with full flash commands and ROOT: open market US998 V30, European H930, European H930G V30+. Right now, that's the list. Those are the ones LG allows bootloader unlock with full flash commands. So, they are easily rooted and have TWRP.

Yes, there are ongoing efforts still to root the carrier variants, most notably the

T-mobile H932 (dedicated thread to efforts for that model)

. I suspect the U.S. Cellular V30/V30+ models would also be good candidates if anyone could find a bootloader unlock exploit, as they seem to be otherwise quite identical to the open market US998.

And here i was thinking of upgrading to the Lg V30+ on Sprint, But no root means no upgrade for me :/
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
You can have all the root you want. Why are you replying to old posts from FEBRUARY? Why did you dig this thread up when every active thread is talking about root and ROMs.

Dude look around!

Every V30/V30+ on the planet except for the T-Mobile H932 can be bootloader unlocked and rooted.

Greetings,

I just bought a smartwatch called GS3 smartwatch with no brand on it. The design is quite similar as No. 1 G4, but with USB connector like G6. The written specifications are MTK2502 with 128MB/64MB ROM/RAM.

Already search for the development thread but no luck, no video also found about this smartwatch on Youtube.

Can’t somebody help me? Maybe there are some development/tricks for changing firmware, true specification of the watch, etc. Thanks in advance
[Other SmartWatches] adhit_praj:
Hello, any help here? Thanks in advance.
[Other SmartWatches] tirta.agung:
I just bought one, and it turn out that you could just flash dt no.1 g6 or dt no.1 s9 firmwares to gs3 smartwatch. Just head to https://www.dtone.cc/firmware/ and download the latest g6 or s9 firmwares. Btw the latest s9 firmware enables our watch to do a blood pressure test.
[Other SmartWatches] adhit_praj:
Wow, it's really a good news. But, is it any methode to dump/rollback to previous firmware? In case the new firmware failed to load. Thanks

Did Google get rid of the hdr+ toggle on the camera app ? I wanted to force hdr today , the option was there days a couple of days ago and now it's gone , I don't remember having updated the camera , is it a bug or did Google just made hdr+ automatic ?

[Samsung Gear VR] Drunkula:
So when I got my Galaxy S7 I also got a Gear VR. I've recently upgraded to an S8+. I see that I can order a part to swap out the micro USB for a USB C connector. Great! So I order it. I'm happy that it came in the mail. No instructions - no big deal. I find instructions using our trusty friend Google. The instructions don't match the Gear VR I have. I can't swap the connector out. Doing some more searching I find there are different models of Gear VR. Mine is apparently the older model that doesn't have a swappable connector.

Oh well. Maybe I'll take the damn thing to the shooting range. We'll see how it holds up to a round of .500 Smith and Wesson magnum...

[Galaxy Note 3 Developer Discussion [Developers Onl] RemusW:
Please remove as this now resolved.

I know that this source is not Lineage but I would think the basic principles for building for an supported device under Lineage would also be applicable to any other source repository.

All of the guides I have found only tell you how to build for a supported device and not any help for an unsupported one. I figured out how to sync a suitable device tree and kernel etc but since the rom source repository does not support my device I can't go any further. I can't get it to build from my sync'd local sources it keeps trying to pull stuff from the original source repository so builds fail at the start.

I have setup a local manifest for this project that sync's the device tree and a kernel and the proprietary blobs and this sync completes without error. next I ran - source build/envsetup.sh and then brunch hlte (not a supported device I know) but that throws up this error -

build/core/product_config.mk:248: * Can not locate config makefile for product "gzosp_hlte". Stop.

Device hlte not found. Attempting to retrieve device repository from GZOSP-Devices Github (http://github.com/GZOSP-Devices).

Repository for hlte not found in the GZOSP-Devices Github repository list.

If this is in error, you may need to manually add it to your .repo/local_manifests/gzosp_manifest.xml

build/core/product_config.mk:248: * Can not locate config makefile for product "gzosp_hlte". Stop.

So I think that the error basically means that github.com/GZOSP-Devices does not have the hlte device listed so can anyone tell me how to make the build point to my local repository after I have sync'd so that it at least starts to build ?

I am a newbie to rom building and have much to learn but I would really appreciate any help you guys could give.

Thanks in advance for any an all help offered.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] shayels:
Hello everyone,

I've lately started searching for a new phone and I viewed the galaxy s8+, it seemed nice but then I found out that there's a "premium" version to it with 6gb ram and 128gb storage. I wanted to search for it but couldn't find the specific model I'm looking for. I just wanted to ask if anyone knows the model name of the specific phone I'm looking for or where can I order it at? (ebay,amazon link etc.)

I'm looking for Samsung Galaxy

S8+, 6GB RAM, 128GB Storage

and the most important thing that I've got trouble in finding it is the exact phone but with exynos processor, most of the sites showed me the phone has 6gb of ram, 128gb of storage and it is the exynos processor but with 2.3ghz + 1.7ghz, which in some sites I see it is actually 2.35 + 1.9ghz. So all I wanted to find is the exact one with the exynos processor and

(2.35GHz QUAD + 1.9GHz QUAD)

.

If there isn't such a phone existed I would like to know about it too, thanks for the helpers.

Anyone get YouTube Module iYTBP for Magisk to work? I've never used this particular method before.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] shizat63:
Root it, then use an aggressive HOSTS file. This one is not bad http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.htm

Remember to convert the format of the hosts to Unix. In Notepadd++ that is EDIT --> EOL Conversion --> UNIX

If rooting is too much, go with a DNS blackhole. Raspberry Pi Hole is the easiest.

Or you can setup DNS on a Windows Server, then import the domains from the hosts file using this: https://cyber-defense.sans.org/blog/2010/08/31/windows-dns-server-blackhole-blacklist

Another benefit of a DNS server is that you can log all the DNS lookup requests from your Pixel 2, iPad, Smart TV, etc. Then block the **** out of them.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] TheySaidWhat?!:
The best adfree solution to YouTube IMO is this:

https://www.official-plus.com/ogyoutube

Not only do you get YouTube adfree - you can do picture in picture without YouTube red AND you get an extra button to download the video in mp4 or just the audio in mp3 if you wanted to! AND ROOT NOT NEEDED! 1st install MicroG APK, then install OGyoutube APK, give permissions, and done lol.

Best YouTube experience yet. Please give this a try, you will forget all about the YouTube adaway module.

BTW, I'm on Oreo 8.1 developer preview 1, unrooted, locked bootloader, stock recovery and still works great. Has extra settings and options not originally in stock YouTube too. And they're all handy =-)

P.S. I been using this for YouTube all week (just got my pixel 2 xl) and haven't seen a single ad yet.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] zathus:
Honestly, pay for it or deal with it. A lot of these creators spend hours and hours creating content for you to enjoy. Those ads pay for that time. And not nearly enough I might add. It's 5 to 20 seconds of your life or 10 bucks a month.

I've already downgraded to B10, I know how every other step works for unlocking the bootloader and stuff but my phone just cant show me the screen. And I tried EVVERYTHING. Searched hours for solution, nothing actually works, am I missing something?!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] mcgrabowski:
Looking for some help because I am at a loss here.

I'm using Ubuntu 17.10 with all latest updates. I have the latest Sdk installed and added to PATH, adb shows version 1.0.39 when adb version executed. I have the latest udev rules from github cloned and symlinked. With the phone on and debugging enabled, I can see the device and trigger it to reboot into recovery.

BUT, once in recovery, adb no longer sees the device (I've unplugged from USB and replugged it back in). It seems most of the stuff I can find searching around applies to windows and the drivers in windows. But I don't seem to find any info regarding this issue on linux. If anyone has any thoughts, please share.

edit: I don't believe this should have any impact on the stock recovery and adb sideloading, but the bootloader is unlocked, but the stock boot.img has been restored so the phone is currently unrooted.

Thanks

-Mike
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] uicnren:
edit: sorry saw stock recovery in title, not article.

anywhay, assuming your trying to sideload an OTA update, when you select to sideload from ADB, do you get the prompt on the phone itself to perform the sideload?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] mcgrabowski:
Yeah this is with stock recovery. When I run 'adb devices', I just get the output 'List of devices attached', but nothing listed beneath.

If I try to perform a sideload anyway, I get 'connecting...',

then 'falling back to older sideload method....'

then 'error: no devices/emulators found'.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] uicnren:
I think you are missing a step, are you at the 'no command' screen after rebooting to recovery ?

if so, you need to hold the power button and tap volume up to fully enter into recovery, then from there, select 'apply update from ADB'

you will then be prompted on the phone to 'adb sideload <filename>...'
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] mcgrabowski:
OMFG are you serious? Wow, I guess it really HAS been a long friggen time since I've actually used the stock recovery. I should just delete this whole thread of my stupidity right about meow.
