[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] davidinfoman:
Thanks very much for your simple approach to rooting the hd 10, starting from unboxing it, and giving step by step guide.

What apps/tweaks/settings did you do after you rooted your HD 10 that you recommend we do, you seem to have a way of writing that is concise and to the point, very much appreciated. Any other suggestions for protecting the HD 10 from Amazon OTA updates or other hazards?

Thanks again.

Are you saying at the beginning that 5.6.0.0 is or is not rootable?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] bibikalka:
It is rootable, I clarified, thanks!
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] fstanis:
Amazing, much easier than the previous guide!

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] Stansted:
After rooting can I remove FireOS and install Oreo?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] Blaiser47:
No. That requires an unlocked boot loader and a custom oreo rom. Neither are available yet and likely will not be
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] Stansted:
This guide didn't work for me. While KingoRoot reported achieving root, I couldn't run SuperSU because the SuperSU binary is already occupied (presumably by KingoRoot's version of SuperSU).
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] bibikalka:
Thanks!

I was not sure if unrooting was necessary, it now looks like you should launch SuperSu from the root shell after running unroot with Kingoroot:

Unroot Fire via Kingoroot on PC

Can you try and report back?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] Stansted:
I already tried that. It didn't work. After unrooting, SuperSU won't do anything because it doesn't detect root.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] bibikalka:
How about going back to su commands - link
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] Stansted:
Yeah, so I just double-checked to make sure I hadn't made a mistake. This doesn't work. While SuperSU launches just fine from the root shell, it won't do anything after you've unrooted with KingoRoot. And if you haven't unrooted with KingoRoot, the SuperSU binary is occupied. For the record, I'm using a 7th Gen Fire HD 10 running Fire OS 5.6.0.0. I might try retyre's method later, but I don't currently understand what he's asking me to do.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] retyre:
Download the 5.6.0.0 update .bin from here, adb sideload that file, and follow these steps to the letter. It will work.

Hi guys

Tried to unlock boot loader phone did not factory reset like it said. Fastboot says it is unlocked but the phone won't let me write a custom recovery or anything to it the phone now has no recovery

Dc unlocker seems like my best option however it says "must use original Full Stock ROM that was in phone when it was purchased to have highest chance of repair." my phone is a Che2-L12 I have found the official Che2-L11 image but there is none for the Che2-L12 would the Che2-L11 image work? It is the same android version 4.4.2

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Teracotta:
I am collecting pledges for FULL root on Marshmallow and Nougat for G920A.

Shell root already exists for G920A, but it does not allow any system write, and attempting to remount will lead to the phone soft bricking.

Preferably, root for the latest basebands on either Marshmallow or Nougat.

I will pledge $200 toward this bounty.

Have you tried flashing TWRP via Odin, use an image for any S6, try the available american models
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Teracotta:
It is not possible on G920A or G920V due to locked bootloader.

Root is desperately needed for the S6 with poor battery life and much bloat, but only the later Marshmallow and Nougat firmware properly support carrier aggregation.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] xSpartacusx:
so i got the stock firmware courtesy of honor... and i dont know how to install it.

ive done my google research and the guides tell me to put the UPDATE.app file onto the sd card whilst in the dload folder.. and open the dialer and type a number in then go to SD card update and when i do that instead of the EMUI recovery thing, i get TWRP.

i could boot into the erecovery menu but it will download stuff and doesnt give me the option to go off of microsd card... and i read on a couple places not to flash anything through twrp cause it could cause damage to the device, i.e bricking. and i dont know where to get a stock recovery... i saw the thread on here but it doesnt have the recovery for the BLN-L24 model of the honor 6x..

im really stuck and i dont know what to do... someone help please..

edit\\ can someone please explain what dload is? i did a google search and its download mode? something said hold down power up and down and plug usb cable into computer... i did that and it boots into twrp..?

[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] xSpartacusx:
okay... well i downloaded the B366 build for my device from FF on android cause i couldnt figure out how to use the PC version.. and then transferred the zips to my computer, and did the whole Dload folder setup.. and when i went to install it from stock recovery, it would be stuck at 5% and after a few minutes it would just reboot..

so i dont think my phones stock firmware is installed.. i found some other guide where the instructions were to go on twrp and wipe all partitions and using fastboot, flash in boot, recovery, and system along with vendor (the .img files extracted from the update.app file),

and i did that and formatted the phone and stuff, and it booted to a setup screen when you first get it from the store or turn it on.. did that and my phone still doesnt work right, i.e cameras are disabled as snapchat or any apps with camera including built in app dont function, sound doesnt get produced no matter if it stereo speakers bluetooth headphones or phone call earpiece speaker, and no videos on any app will play back..

im not sure what to do now
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] BakedOnSomeSour:
I was in the same position as you the other day. My phone got recovered but was missing a bunch of things. It was only fixed with an OTA update.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] xSpartacusx:
When I made this I didn't really know much about the whole stock restoring thing with dload. What I meant about the sd card was, what people said to do, which was like hold all three buttons down (volume and power), for me it would go to erecovery and download something off the internet and format. Instead of going through the process kf installing the app file from the sd card . haha

I'm thinking about just buying a new phone. But I want to try to fix this one.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] BakedOnSomeSour:
So where are you now in the process? Your phone boots but with a bunch of issues correct? Do you still need a dload explanation?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] xSpartacusx:
I understand dload for the most part. I got a b366 firmware from firmware finder. And it booted up with current issues still present. However this one doesn't have system update in the settings. Also found out I can't flash a rom. Well I can but it won't boot into it haha.

I know this is old but i know the fix. Your build number is incorrect. You need to flash a lower version.img than take an OTA update and youll be all set.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Nithin.15:
well is it fixed.you have to download two files one is named update.zip and is something like data_hw like that.first flash the update zip by extracting it and placing it in the dload folder and flash the second zip.only thing you have to make sure is to download the correct package or else it wont work.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] blackscreen345:
I just got my V30 plus to day and the first thing I noticed was that the screen looks so sh!tty compared to my V20's.

I'm not talking about colors, it's about the texture. The screen is so noisy and dirty just like there's a layer of paper in the back. If you look carefully the grain doesn't move when you scroll the pages up and down, it's just there. But when I bump the brightness up to 100% it's hardly noticeable.

I've looked at every V30 at the stores and they all have the same issue. I've asked many people on the internet. They all said their phones were normal. Seriously? How is that normal? Are you guys all blind? I think they just did not notice or look hard enough. They just did not know the issue was there.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] starrynighthn:
My V30+'s screen is as good as my old S8+ (maybe better). It's also better than iPhone X. Can you take a photo of your screen when you see the grains?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] blackscreen345:
The grains are just there but when I took the screenshot it didn't show, because it's a hardware problem. If scroll up and down on the white/grey background you will notice that (not on 100% brightness).
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] starrynighthn:
Do you have another phone or camera to take photo? Maybe V30 production batch in your location is not good.

Yes, all LG POLED screens have some level of grain. It's not something new, few years older G Flex2 with much older OLED gen has it. People are not paying attention or don't know what to look for. If you compare side by side regular IPS and POLED from very close range you will definitely see it. It's like looking through screen protector.

Take a look at Play Store Green bar below "Google Play", move the page up and down slowly, lets say at around 30% brightness. Something is staying on the screen and not moving with the page.

It's hard to take it on photo.

Here is one picture: https://photos.app.goo.gl/mtFVtiSfzaz9hCkf1

Note the grainy effect on blue brightness rocker.

---------- Post added at 03:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:37 PM ----------

My entire display has a uniform grainy effect, like it has a white paper as a background. My lg g6 has better display than this. Also the v30 looks quite warm(yellowish whites) when compared to G6 .
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] src151:
Yes, because LG G6 has IPS screen which is completely different tech.

To your picture, as expected such effect is pretty hard to capture by regular camera, but I see what are you saying, it's also visible on the white.

I think the best demostration could be to capture a closeup high quality video while scrolling page where is green/white, like Play store with low brightness.

Anyway I don't think you can do something about it, since it's not a bug, it's just stupid quality feature on every LG POLED not solved for a years .

Btw, I've checked pretty cheap mid range Samsung phones with AMOLED and screens there are without any noticeable grain, just like IPS. Perfectly clean solid colors.

A slightly yellowish white is also LG POLED feature as far as I know. It opposite to Samsung's blueish panels, however you can slightly correct it in the Display settings.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] BabaKirtos:
Thanks for all the info. Initially it seemed like I was the only one who had this issue with my v30. Knowing that it's gonna be the same with every other v30 I might as well kept this one. Thanks again.

i do not think that on the white is some grain issue, it might be the display itself and the camera he shoot whith is such a BAD one with alot of noise and oversharpen...

you might very well have a defective one, or is not properly cleaned ot you have some protection film :)

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] src151:
It should not be worse so you can try if you have that option.

What I know so far is, that if someone saw the grain in the screen, saw it on every other replacement. I don't know anyone who confirmed that this issue completely disappeared with an another unit.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] BabaKirtos:
Well, amazon did send a technician today. I showed him the light bleeding from the edges 1st, followed by the the grainy effect on screen. He told me that he would approve the unit for replacement/refund on the basis of the light bleeding. Surprisingly he wasn't bothered about the grainy effect at all as he said, "its nothing". I did opt for a refund instead of replacement as I'm afraid the replacement unit might have the same problem, and if its without the light bleeding edges then I'll be stuffed. Gonna keep my g6 until a lg smartphone comes which has a good dac, good display, good camera and no notch(hopefully lg v40).
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] iRS_:
bleeding seems to be a problem for alot of people, luckly i do not have it and i didn't even search for it when i bought the phone :)

v30 has good dac, good display, good camera and no notch, is an upgrade over g6 in every aspect :)

it does fit all your requirements too, don't give up after the first try :(
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] BabaKirtos:
That's true. I do absolutely love the v30. But its tough for me settle for that display. Even if it's half as bad as this one I won't be able to live with the noisy/grainy panel. Maybe it's best for me to stick with IPS LCD panels until LGs oled technology improves. On the basis that the g7 is going to be an lcd I'm expecting the v40 to be one as well(fingers crossed).

You're just seeing light going through the curved glass.

Light bleed is found on LCD screens because they're backlit. LED screens like the V30 isn't backlit, the LEDs light themselves.

I have three V30s at home at the moment and will receive my fourth replacement unit today...

- Every V30 was produced in November 17.

- Every V30 had a very grainy screen. White was grey and everything looked really dirty.

- Every V30 had an extremely noticeable blue shift. The last one was completely blue with only a 10° tilt.

- Every V30 had light bleed all around the display. Just cover the whole display and you will see it right above the metal frame.

- Every V30 had absolutely no issues with uniformity. At least one thing was good about the screens.

Pretty disappointing. Hard to believe that there are absolutely perfect screens out there. Even my girlfriend noticed the graininess the first time she looked at the display and usually she's the opposite of a tech savvy person and doesn't care about such issues. Her LG G6 display is night and day to the V30s I received. (I know OLED vs. IPS).

Fortunately amazon has a great service and is sending replacements like no other. I asked for a phone made in 2018, but unfortunately they can't send a specific box. Just the "first" in the warehouse.

So if it's again 11/17 I'm done with amazon and have to wait for another shop offering the same price or I must use the P20 Pro I got with the extension of my contract. (But EMUI, lack of headphone jack and wideangle camera, weight and bad camera software processing is keeping me away from it. But screen is amazing compared to the V30s i got ;))

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] basti2910:
[MENTION=3250376]ChazzMatt[/MENTION]

The black border around the display doesn't reach to the very end of the glass. So there's a litte gap between black cover and metal frame. And through this gap you will see some light on a few/almost any/any (?) V30.

Or can you explain me, why I will see light above the metal frame, when the whole display is covered with a cloth reaching to the end of the black border?

But this is not a big issue for me.

Graininess is ;)

First check: made in 11/17 again...

IMEI check: one week earlier than the others...

I had some last hopes.

And what should I say. The display has absolutely no graininess :)

It looks much better than the others. Not dirty at all.

But my happiness went down really fast... :(

See attached pictures:

The blue shift is the worst of them all. Two pictures are comparing it to the first unit I got (with grainy display).

Because of that I checked the polarization filter with my sunglasses. The 4th V30 is literally unusable with sunglasses. Much darker and rainbow effect all over which is blinding you with every little move by your head. Both phones are tilted in an angle how I would hold them.

It's f***ed up. Seems nearly impossible to receive a perfect V30...
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Arcide:
My LG V30 has perfect uniformity, literally no blue tint when viewed at an angle, but it has this grain effect, like there's dirt under the glass. It's not too pronounced, and doesn't bother me at all. I feel like if I tried to get a replacement, I would only get a worse display, this is as good as it gets. :)
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] hexaae:
Mine has blue tint tilting it a few degrees and have also grainy effect (as you said it's like there's dirt under the glass).

You can easily notice the grain effect under the glass scrolling something white slowly (e.g. a text) from a very close view: you'll notice this sort of grainy pattern not moving while scrolling. It's like the glass itself was blended with some very fine powder inside. I also have a LG V10 and the screen definition there is much higher than V30 (???!) even though V10's screen had other issues like some bleeding.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] jblparisi:
I got sick and tired of how mine looked after a month and a half. The blueish tint on my device was what I consider extremely annoying and distracting, even if just by having the phone on my lap. I have come from both a v10 and v20 and I consider the V30 a downgrade in some ways, I would gladly prefer they kept the same v20 panel on the V30. On the bright side, my screen (to my eyes) has almost non existent or none at all grainy effect, similar to what the other person said.

So I setup an exchange thru T-Mobile chat and hopefully what is being sent to the local retail store is in as new condition as what I have now and fingers crossed hoping the panel is a much better improvement over what I currently have. The downside is that it will cost $20 for a swap thru Tmobile, I chose to willingly as I did not want to send it in to LG warranty services and be without a device for days/weeks.

Lastly, I am on that 2 year promotional promise extended warranty but LG reps told there is nothing they can do to help me on the first year of a warranty and it only applies to months 12-24, so it was either send it in and take my chances or take the Tmobile warranty out of pocket route.

Has anyone replaced their v30 in store thru the same program and what was your experience?
