[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] SoulChoir:
I have a European Moto G5 Plus, we don't have Verizon available here, I'm on Telekom's service. The app Motorola modem stats constantly attempts to connect to an IP that's located in Québec, Canada and apparently owned by Verizon.

Does anybody have more information on this? Maybe somebody (more experienced) could intercept the package it's attempting to send? What is it trying to send and how can I make it stop (preferably without rooting)? Maybe somebody could msg Motorola on the social networks about this? (I don't use Twitter/FB :/ )

any help would be greatly appreciated!
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] acejavelin:
How are you seeing this, can you give us more information? Is it over mobile data or WiFi, and can you wireshark it?

And remember, Verizon is not only a mobile service provider here in North America, they are also a large land-line, ISP, and TV company... Because Verizon "owns" the IP address does not mean it is connecting to a Verizon server/device, it could be a customer or other service provider using Verizon as their upstream carrier, but we need significantly more information.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] SoulChoir:
Will gladly provide any details I can!

So what I did is download one of these no root firewalls, which logs which app attempted to access what IP.

It is listed as "Apps (UID 1000)" which consists of the standard android settings app and "Motorola Modem Service" aka com.motorola.bach.modemstats. It attempts (blocked - de facto offline behaviour) to send something to the IP 192.168.178.1 every other 20s.

I googled the IP which told me it was a Verizon IP in Québec.

Just tell me what else you need to know/what I should do :)
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] acejavelin:
192.168.0.0/16 is all private IP space and not routable, if that is the IP it's sending to then it's sending data to something in your local network.

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] SoulChoir:
That explains why I couldn't catch any packets ? Weird that the firewall lists it then. Thanks a lot acejavelin!

hi, dear all

if anyone can tell the biggest difference between Oneplus 3 and Oneplus5 ?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Anghirrim:
Gsmarena will tell you much better than us I think, there is a great comparison tool :)
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] F4uzan:
I'd say the most strikingly obvious one would be the camera setup: the rear camera sports a dual-camera setup and the front camera has an upgraded specs in it (though I cannot speak for their quality since I have never personally tried them myself).

Going down from camera, there isn't much of a difference; The usual specs bump are there: new SoC (Snapdragon 835 vs OnePlus3's Snapdragon 820), more storage capacity which also happen to have more RAM (as long as you pick the 8/128 model).

If you're going WAY down, you can also spot upgrades like Bluetooth 5.0, the same battery capacity as the OnePlus 3T, and a very minor dual LED flash which upgrades over the single LED flash of the OnePlus 3.

Oh and of course, the updated design, but that's obvious.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Explorer23:
Long story short, camera and SoC. With OP5 also being a bit more expensive.

If you're shopping, I'd say forget both and go for the new 5T (if budget allows). That screen alone is worth it. If not, you can't go wrong with either of older ones.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] myefox.it:

Hello people,

please be so kind and tell me is this charger something neccessarry to be bought or people (we) can live without and charge our Note 8 with the included wired fast charger?

I really do not know whether to buy it or not.

It looks so cool, and to charge phone fast looks interesting.

For example, I have charged my phone via wired charger from 19-20% to 100%, in about 90 minutes.

Edit - what are the pros/cons?

Thank you in advance for your advice.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Hagbard57:
I got one free as part of the launch promo and I love it. I think the thing I like the most is the convertible part combined with the always on display. As my phone is my alarm clock I can have it charging at night with the always on display visible and when I grab it in the morning I am not pulling cables out of chargers or knocking things off of the headboard.

tldr: I love it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] cac9478:
I wouldn't say that it is necessary to have. It does look cool especially on my desk at work. The only downside is that even with wireless fast charging it still does not charge anywhere near as fast as with the cable. The "fast" only implies that it is faster than the original wireless charger. I had one next to my bed but eventually stop using it as I found that more often than not I would want to still use my phone while it was on the charger or I wanted to get a faster charge when I was getting ready to leave the house.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] smarcin:
I, too, got one as part of the free bundle from Samsung. I just set it up. It does look cool, but if it is set up to use it as a dock, it won't charge my Note 8 with my Otterbox Defender case on it. So sad. It will charge if you have the charger flat with the Otterbox on. I believe the problem is that the charger surface is slightly curved. The phone has to touch it in just the right spot to charge. It probably would work better without the case. I was hoping since the box says, "up to 9 Watt wireless Fast charge" it might be faster than my last generation flat Samsung wireless Fast charger, but it's not. I put my phone at 30% on both. Both say 2 hr 2 min to charge. If you take the cable out of the convertible wireless fast charger and plug it directly into your phone, it says 1 hr 15 min to charge. The good thing is, this convertible charger comes with a USB C cable and the standard Samsung Fast charger, so it can be used as a spare. The last generation flat wireless charger came with a microUSB cable and standard Fast charger. My final conclusion is, since mine was free, I might keep it. I personally wouldn't buy one that won't charge my Note 8 with my Otterbox on in the upright position. As a side note, the convertible charger won't charge my Note 8 in the landscape position either with the Defender case on it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Shuthefrontdoor:
If mines didn't come free with promo, I would of end up buying it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Limeybastard:
Never use it, waste of space. Generates heat, but cable slow charging does not.

Mine either and OP it is great! I got mine for free with phone and was like I will never use this thing, well i haven't plugged my phone in at home! Goes right on there and convenient! Love having mine after months!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Limeybastard:
Rubbish. All the wireless charging naturally causes heat. It's the nature of the beast.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Shuthefrontdoor:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] oneandroidnut:

My phone is a unlocked at&t h910-10q can I flash US996 Firmware on my phone so I can have a phone that does not have AT&T junk on it using kdz without root
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
Post a link to the KDZ that you want to flash and I will let you know if it is safe. I can't tell you if it will work, but I can at least let you know if you are going to brick your phone.

If it doesn't work, you will have to root it so that you can flash back to stock since there is no H910 KDZ.

Hey [MENTION=8727140]omnixech[/MENTION] did you used the us996 kdz?

[MENTION=3167089]runningnak3d[/MENTION] any thougs about it?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
I got busy on Friday and didn't get a chance to check. I will as soon as I get to work and post the findings.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
[MENTION=7738733]prismk[/MENTION] [MENTION=8727140]omnixech[/MENTION]

The US996 definitely uses the same RSA key as the H910, so you won't brick your phone. I can't tell you if it will work, and I also can't tell you what the ARB version is.

Before you flash, you need to verify from someone that has a US996 what the ARB version is for 10l. If it is greater than 0, then don't do it, because if it doesn't work you will be stuck and can't flash H910 firmware back onto your phone.

Prismk, I understand why omnixech wants to flash the KDZ -- he / she doesn't want to root their phone. You already have root, so what are you hoping to gain?

-- Brian
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] prismk:
[MENTION=3167089]runningnak3d[/MENTION] I was scared because the us996l zip flash all partitions except recovery, but I will give a try. Thank you!

The US996 ROM have UI differences, like the carrier name (hidden) on status bar and LTE icon. I can change that on H910, but I will have to use xposed and will break magisk

safetynet.

[MENTION=8727140]omnixech[/MENTION] If you did used US996 KDZ please update this thread, if it was ok I will use this KDZ too. I won't be able to use an app that my company use because I have root :(
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] omnixech:
No I have not used the kdz I most likely will not it is my only phone and do not want to risk ruining it.

I just was tying to remove all the at&t junk on my phone with out have to root, I do not like the current rooting method that is available for my phone leaving that warning message during boot.

I will just leave well enough alone until a better way to root comes along or I get a new phone what ever happens first.

Guys I'm a bit late, but would any of these firmwares work on my H990DS, since I live in the US and don't use the second SIM slot or the FM radio and want the UI changes and the VoLTE. I'm currently on LGH990AT-00-V11k-GLOBAL-COM-JAN-17-2018+0, even though the about phone menu shows V10g-AME-XX (for some reason that I do not know) on my rooted H990DS. If you could please check if this would work in a flash using KDZWriter (keeping boot and the kernel the same?) or flashing the TWRP zip that another user posted, I would be very grateful.

Sorry, the H990 handles the cellular modem quite differently. If it doesn't outright brick it won't have service.. Its why there arnt any Lineage builds for it.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] eqwansyafiqat:
It work for me. Network service working in my country. Except I cant access phone information in *#*#4636#*#*

So I cant lock to specific network. Other than that it runs much smoother without those AT&T bloat.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jtalamas:
I did a test on the latest version US99610o_01_0202.kdz and it worked perfectly fine.

Just one note, make sure you are carrier unlocked before flashing to the new KDZ variant.

The only thing I found a little bit of annoying, at least on my case, is that you can't check for updates in the phone, I keep getting the following message "Your phone is not registered yet." Although there is a workaround (just google it), my way of fixing it is by updating through LGMobile Support Tool.

Hope that helps.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] dragonx999:
So it's possible to flash a us996 rom on H910? I'd like to know because the att ui sucks.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jtalamas:
Yes, it is possible, I did the conversion from H910 v10q to US996 v10o.

However I am not sure if further versions in the H910, the ARB is incremented, making impossible to change the firmware, however if that is the case you will be stopped when LG UP will say "anti-rollback check failed" and abort.

In this case I used the patched LG UP: https://xdaforums.com/v20/how-to/guide-patch-lgup-to-unlock-features-t3652222
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] dragonx999:
Thanks for the answer!

Have you found a better battery? And how you did the conversion? I'm interested in it
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jtalamas:
Regarding the battery, I haven't found any real difference, but the ROM is way cleaner.

The way I did the conversion is doing the following:

Download the latest KDZ variant for US996: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=673956719939828249

Further versions can be found here: https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-us996-firmwares/

Download the patched LG UP: https://xdaforums.com/v20/how-to/guide-patch-lgup-to-unlock-features-t3652222

Make sure you install it in C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP or it will either read the wrong model file (if you had a previous installation of LG UP), or it will not be able to find the model file at all.

Put your phone into download mode (power off / hold vol. up / plug in USB cable)

Open LG UP and click the PARTITION DL radio button, pick the US996 v10o KDZ that you downloaded above, and click start. Make sure all partitions are checked.

Once it is complete, your phone should reboot into the new US996 ROM.

Thanks for the answer, I've flashed the 10f to unlock the bootloader. But now i've a problem with LTE. I don't know why it say stuck on H and it didn't go on internet :(

What is your mobile provider? Most likely LTE isn't working since your provider doesn't support the LTE bands from your device.

Did you make a full backup dump via patched lg up for your h910 software or u just jumped the gun to US996? Looks like you burnt all your boats. None of us have encountered this problem.

I did, but if I can't use LGUP nor Flash Tool my dump is of no use
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
[MENTION=9281820]palato[/MENTION] I need a complete list of steps that you have done to try and figure out what shape your phone is in. If you have ONLY flashed the US996 KDZ and NEVER rooted, you would not be getting the "your device is corrupt" message.

So talk me though exactly what you have done to your phone and in exactly what order.

Also:

There is no KDZ for H910 -- the only way to get H910 firmware back on your phone is to root it and flash a back to stock zip in TWRP. This is why I need to know if you ever rooted the phone.

If you DID, and you are getting the device corrupt message, that means that you still have the engineering bootloader, and you have full fastboot so it will be very easy to fix your phone.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] dark_prince:
Take out your phone's battery and after 30 seconds insert it back

Vol Down + USB Cable plug in (cable must be connected to your PC from the other end)

What do you get by this combo? If you can enter fastboot check what's the status of the device

Edit: Check Brian's reply a floor above. If you already have engineering boot you'll know it here.

Similarly what do you get if you do the Vol Up + USB Cable plug in ?

If you get download mode then you can flash kdz or restore the dump via LG UP.

Hey guys [MENTION=3167089]runningnak3d[/MENTION] [MENTION=479015]dark_prince[/MENTION] thanks for the help so far... I will put all the steps of all things I already did with this phone.

I have this phone broked for about 6 months so I can't remember perfectly what steps I took, but was something like that:

First I rooted using the [MENTION=3167089]runningnak3d[/MENTION] root guide https://xdaforums.com/v20/how-to/root-h910-v10m-t3664500

After that I used a lot of custom roms and all running fine I stayed on LOS 14 for a while and cant remember if the last ROM of this phone was LOS or some H910 stock twrp flashable room probably using mk2000 kernel.

So I opened LGUP and flashed an US996q KDZ and the phone never booted it stays on the LG logo forever, if I do a factory reset it will show the "your device is corrupt" screen and jump to lg logo after that.

I still have download mode on vol up, but don't have TWRP anymore.

How can I enter on bootloader to use fastboot without using adb or twrp?

About my attempts to try to fix I already tried the LGUP patched and got unknown model:

I tried UPPERCUT too and got the same problem.

and tried this LG G5 tutorial that use LG FLash Tool https://xdaforums.com/lg-g5/how-to/bring-lg-g5-to-life-download-mode-lgup-t3565508 but It didn't work for me

Vol Down + USB Cable enter on fastboot mode, but fastboot command didn't work... It's always "waiting for any device" message :(

Vol Up leads me to download mode, but as I said before LGUP is not working for me.

I read about LAF, can this help me?

Thank guys!
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
EDIT: just saw the "waiting for any device" part of your post concerning fastboot.

You have a bad USB cable or USB port. That is why LG UP isn't seeing the device. Try a different PC...

If you don't already have it, download TWRP for the US996 then try to enter fastboot mode:

With the phone off, hold vol down and plug in the USB cable. If you get the fastboot screen, then try booting TWRP:

fastboot boot twrp.img

Replace twrp.img with the name you have saved TWRP as.

If you get TWRP, then first flash TWRP back onto recovery, after that grab the H910 Alpha ROM and flash that.

Let me know how it goes...

-- Brian
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] dark_prince:
Can be either bad USB cable or you didn't enable driver test signing enabled on windows 10.

tldr enable driver test signing permanently just run command prompt as administrator and then paste the command:

bcdedit /set testsigning on

reboot and you will have a windows 10 and some technical build info showing up on ur desktop at bottom right corner which is all okay.

Also, try another USB cable, shorter in length and do not use front panel USB connectors on ur PC, connect it directly to the USB backports of your PC.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] dark_prince:
you clearly entered wrong command, you chose boot.img instead of twrp recovery image.

download twrp for either H910 or US996 from https://xdaforums.com/v20/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-t3720239

rename the respective img file to twrp.img

Then use the command "fastboot boot twrp.img" not boot.img. boot.img is the bootloader which is a paradox in itself.
