Was wondering if the above mentioned case has a slight sticky tacky feel to it which I like.?

I remember the Tech21 Mesh series ones on older Samsung devices had a wonderful slight tacky sticky feel to thier edges of the cases. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] browniegirl:
It does slightly but if you have greasy fingers stay away
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Limeybastard:
Cheers. Was looking for something with a slightly sticky tackey edges.

I think it was the Mesh series Tech21 I had for the S7 , edges were orange colored and had a slight sticky tacky feel to it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] usmaak:
I've been using this case since day one. I tried a few others, but keep coming back to it. It's a great case. I'm not sure about tacky, but it is not slick. I've never even come close to dropping my phone.

Just one word of warning. My wife got the white Evo Check, and the white yellowed pretty quickly. We just threw it away and got a cheap case on Amazon for her. My black case is still in perfect shape.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] Limeybastard:
I primarily use a leather type folding case on the N8, but have tried a few regular cases which I find in all honesty uncomfortable to hold for long.

I find the edge tpu plastic or whatever it is hard to the touch. Was hoping to find a case that has soft compressible sides. The skins are soft and pliable but the edges are too thin for protection.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] alearn:
Note8 Tech21 evo check users, can help see if your case inside edge facing screen near top of power button is there a small extra protruding bit? Wondering if mine is defective. Thanks. Mine is black case, also tell me if yours is black or white.

[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] gk1984:
When on a call, the proximity sensor is active and controls the screen. Having it on 24/7 will impact battery.

Generally, a magnet is used to trigger the same thing with a case. A different sensor or switch than the proximity sensor is used and a magnet in the case triggers it. It's possible that the Essential doesn't have this sensor that gets triggered by a magnet or your case doesn't have a magnet.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Zargone:
The cover has a magnet. Using the app mentioned above solved the problem. Will be interesting to see impact on the battery life.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] gk1984:
The phone may not have the sensor for the magnet to work then. Good luck with the app. It may not be too bad as it may only enable the sensor while the screen is on.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] avd:
Proximity sensor. Reducing screen on time offsets the energy cost of polling the sensor.
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Whiskeyomega:
Thanks to DTDMike & SeptFox

I found a little difference from the mod for the V20 but got it working with a slight edit for the V30's config

Volume will now be louder but LG Hi-fi checker will still say normal mode. Root is needed at the moment.

Copy file into /system/etc and override existing one
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Septfox:
Suggestion: fully document the changes you're making, so future generations aren't in the situation that you guys were in the other thread/people can just do the changes themselves (in case other modifications are present, e. g. I plan on modifying mine so v4a can affect ringtones/notifications, copying your file would overwrite that).

The LG app not showing the right mode isn't encouraging, would seem to suggest it's just blindly writing settings based on the headset type it thinks is plugged in, without reading anything first... a bit sloppy and potentially unsafe in my opinion.
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Whiskeyomega:
Yep was going to and forgot

<!-- ESS DAC START -->
<path name="headphones-hifi-dac">
<ctl name="Es9018 AVC Volume" value="0" />
<ctl name="Es9018 Master Volume" value="0" />
<ctl name="Es9018 HEADSET TYPE" value="2" />

Is the change made in mixer_paths_tavil.xml
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] fliky:
Works great!

Though I could not find a way to remount /system/etc as r/w when booted up whether in a file explorer or termux.

Mounting /system as r/w in twrp and using the terminal to manually change the values from there worked though.
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] rm8226:
So there is no other way to install it without rooting my device if no, Then how do i root my V30 ?
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ChazzMatt:
EDIT: ALL V30/V30+/V30S can now be

bootloader unlocked and rooted

.

__________

previous post:

You need a V30/V30+ variant which is on the

LG Developer Bootloader unlock list.

There's instructions down in the development section, if you have one of those phones.

Right now there's two European phones on there, but soon the open market US998 V30/V30+ should be placed on there.
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Nullzeit:
Thank you, but I just replaced the file with ES File Explorer end rebooted the phone and now there's no audio at all :crying:

edit: H930 no branding

edit2: ouch, I found my mistake, i replaced the file in /etc, not system/etc... Can someone please send me the file from /etc?

edit3: no reading permissions. I apologize and will return to my abyss of shame...
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ChazzMatt:
But you are rooted and everything is fine now?
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Nullzeit:
Yes, the file just did not have reading permissions for some reason. Now it works like a charm, unbelievable sound in combination with v4a :). Thank you.
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] VR32:
truth. unbelievable sound with V4A... and even better with WETA drivers on the WETA rom. HIM volume is a life saver. dream phone!
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] flextremes:
Apologies for a total noob question, but I am stuck.

I successfully unlocked the bootloader on my v30 via LG dev site (status=unlocked and I get the extra boot screen), but cannot copy the .xml to /system/etc. with ES file explorer, I have no write permissions.

I tried to enable 'root explorer' in the ES file explorer settings, but got the message "sorry test failed, this feature cannot run on your device".

I can only assume that unlocking the bootloader does not equal a rooted system. The app root checker confirms this, I have no root permissions.

What steps am I missing?
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ChazzMatt:
I realize you wrote this before our extensive conversation in the other thread, but I'm answering it anyway un case someone else has the same question...

You need to flash root via TWRP, either Magisk or SuperSu.

Unlocking bootloader is first step, installing TWRP custom recovery is second step, flash root via TWRP is the 3rd step.

I was just using my beyerdynamics custom street with the lg v30 and i don't know how or why the v30 triggered the High impedance mode it was always in normal mode but today it was in H.I.M and the sound quality was.just amazing and now i plugged them back its back to normal mode does anyone have any idea how can i trigger H.I.M whenever i plug my headphones ? (without root) its H930DS
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] bilbo60:
It they have a detachable cable, it matters which order you plug everything in. Experiment: cable to phone first then headphone, or the other way.
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] rm8226:
Yea i did try that mate it connects as an aux device the volume increases it works well but yesterday i don't know how i connected the cable normally and it turned on H.I.M and the audio quality was just epic quality + good balance and soundstage so that's why i wanna trigger the H.I.M somehow

[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ChazzMatt:

There's also a QR code you can scan with your phone camera when it's displayed on another device (like PC monitor). That downloads straight to your phone.
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] christoophat:
ok, got it saved, moved to phone,dropped into system/etc folder but it didn't appear to overwrite any file? Did I do something wrong?

OH! Seems to be working! Got the hifi icon in the status bar! this is freaking awesome!

thank you!!
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mrxyzl:
errr i supposed you had to drop it to system/vendor/etc ?

Hifi icon is on all the time for any headphone with quac Dac enanle
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ChazzMatt:
Err? What do you find confusing?

Whichever you drop it in, it has to override the exiting one.

Yes, "High Impedance Mode" (HIM) -- as indicated in the

Hi Fi status app

-- is already on for any headphones with 50+ ohms impedance through the quad DAC.

This development (which requires root) allows other headphones to also be catapulted into HIM. It takes LG's qualifications decisions -- whether your headphones are worthy of the HIM experience -- out of the equation. You obviously don't want to do this for Dollar Store headphones. :p
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] christoophat:
No, I followed the instructions in the OP. What threw me off was when I dropped the file into the etc folder, I expected to see a "do you wish to replace the existing file with this one" message, which I didn't recall seeing.

But whenever I plug in headphones, the DAC gets activated, so ... profit.:good:
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mrxyzl:
What i mean is that the instructions in OP is for Nougat. If you're on Oreo you're supposed to drop it to system/vendor/etc. Maybe that's the reason you don't have any message popup asking to replace the original file
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] christoophat:
hmm...well that would explain that. OK, so, I went back in via root explorer, planning on moving that xml file over to vendor/etc as you mention...only to find that it isn't in the system/etc folder now!?

I look in the vendor/etc folder and there is one with that name . Now *I* did not put it in that folder. I dropped it in system/etc. So how the heck did it get moved? And no I am not confused or mistaken, I pasted it in the system/etc folder, and it was working.

Anyways...I repasted it again to the vendor/etc folder, and it asked if I wanted to replace the existing one this time. :confused::silly:

[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Hawk84r:
Magisk module to systemlessly replace mixer_paths_tavil

That be 644.

If anyone else having any problems with writing to /system or doesn't want their system modified - here is a little Magisk module. Based on module for One Plus 5 that does practically the same thing (https://xdaforums.com/android/development/mod-dual-speaker-soundmod-devices-root-t3735280).

Tested on my Oreo V30 on Stock US99820g ROM (originally H933).
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nlse:
I wonder if you want to have it more precise and control when using the high impedance mode and want to control the volume in mixer_paths_tavil

for the headphones and the speaker top and bottom speaker

what should you change for value?

"Speaker Volume is not present in the mixer!"

Code:

<path name="speaker">

------------------

<ctl name="RX0 Digital Volume" value="84" /><!--earpiece up-to 95, beyond is DANGEROUS-->

</path>

<path name="headphones">

------------------

<ctl name="RX1 Mix Digital Volume" value="76" /><!--Volume, usually seen as left channel, up-to 95, beyond depends on how much you hate your Ears-->

<ctl name="RX2 Mix Digital Volume" value="76" /><!--Volume, usually seen as right channel, up-to 95, beyond depends on how much you hate your Ears-->

------------------

</path>
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Hawk84r:
I don't know what "precise and control" you seeking, but if you mean adding more "steps" to volume control then it is probably not the way. And phone has enough of that to begin with. But if you want to simply increase maximum volume - that should do it. Note: as I understand it minimum volume also will increase on given value.
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nlse:
i wonder what values i can change for the headphone in mixer_paths_tavil, to choose headphone volume
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nlse:
if its possible to manually edit the mixer_paths_tavil with lower and higher value

what values to change to do make it higher and lower?

I finally got headphones that are worthy of using this mod. I have some high end 8 driver IEMs and was curious what would happen if the gain was boosted on my V30. Holy crap, what a difference! LG really should have built in a switch, but I guess they didn't want to be blamed for customers blowing out their eardrums. In my case, it noticeably improves the bass extension, while also smoothing out the highs. Seeing as no other phone manufacturer is catered to audiophiles, this makes me love my phone that much more.
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] BenG7:
Hi @Hawk84r

Ok, this is probably a LONG call... Just looking into this forced HIM business at the moment.

My H930DS is currently running the latest version of [ROM]LineageOS-16.0[Joan][Unofficial] ( lineage-16.0-20201014-joan_oreo-blobs).

I compared the mixer_paths_tavil.xml provided in your Magisk module and I noted these additions compared with the one currently running on my phone; would you mind clarifying what they are if you know:

<path name="tty-headphones">

<ctl name="RX INT2_2 MUX" value="RX2" />
<ctl name="RX INT1 DEM MUX" value="CLSH_DSM_OUT" />
<ctl name="RX INT2 DEM MUX" value="CLSH_DSM_OUT" />
<ctl name="HPHL Volume" value="10" />
<ctl name="HPHR Volume" value="10" />
<ctl name="RX1 Mix Digital Volume" value="84" />
<ctl name="RX2 Mix Digital Volume" value="84" />

<path name="voice-tty-hco-handset">

<ctl name="EAR PA Gain" value="G_6_DB" />
<ctl name="RX0 Digital Volume" value="84" />

<path name="voice-tty-full-headset-mic">

<ctl name="ADC2 Volume" value="10" />
<ctl name="DEC0 Volume" value="64" />

<path name="voice-tty-vco-handset-mic">

<path name="amic1" />
<ctl name="DEC6 Volume" value="84" />

I left the sections name so the entries are easier to find; they are ALL additions but the entry <path name="amic1" />, the latter is also im my mixer_paths_tavil.xml but the value is different: "dmic1"

The idea behind all this is to set the best options (i.e. should I also add these lines to my mixer_paths_tavil.xml?) for the greatest sound in my V30.

Thanks a lot.

1) You need root. Is your V50 rooted? That's probably the permissions issue. This is for a rooted phone.

2) This is for the V30. In post #1 the dev said he tweaked it from the V20 to work with the V50. No guarantees it will work with V50 if LG made any changes since the V30, V35, V40...
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Yonko Luffy:
I'm rooted though that's why this is so confusing
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ChazzMatt:
Others didn't have permissions because of the file explorer they were using and couple other things. Read through the thread and you'll see.

===

From another thread, another mod where people had trouble with permission:

"You must use Root Explorer to copy the file over, then set permission to "644", rw-r-rand reboot, it is very simple"

Try that and see if it works for the permissions, since you ARE indeed rooted?

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Lienot:
Hi!

I have a question, I am on the CARHDRom, not the 8.0 but the Note ported ROM from about a month ago.

Can I use ODIN and flash the stock ROM for the G955F with the 4 files to have a "clean" handy without root and with the settings as it came from the factory?

The 4 part ODIN Firmware I have is the AQH3 Firmware. If someone can answer, have I got to use the HOME_CSC or the other CSC file? The Firmware is DBT (for germany) and this is right for me.

Any help needed :confused:

lienot
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] JeffDC:
You can return your phone to fresh using the stock OEM ROM. Use the stock CSC file, as that will clear our your Note 8 port CSC, which I'd guess you'd have.

Don't use the Home CSC, unless you wish to have your old CSC data remain on the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Lienot:
Thanks a Lot,

No I finally know the exact difference between the two CSC files.

lienot
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MeltdownSpectre:
Yes you can flash the 4-file firmware, using AP, BL, CP and CSC_OXM (not HOME_CSC).

Just keep in mind that AQH3 is quite old (August 2017), and the newest firmware available is AQL5 (December 2017).

You should flash that instead.

I have a ATT branded Moto Z2 with a Cricket SIM. I got the phone in late november, and it came with Android 7.1.1 with the June 1 SPL. I know that ATT has released several updates, the latest in December with the November 1st SPL,

but everytime I check for updates it says that my phone is up-to-date.

So far I tried to check for updates after a factory reset, and also tried to do an OTA update with an old ATT SIM in it. Nothing seems to be working.

I have posted on the lenovo support page but so far I have not got any answer. I am not the guy that has to have the latest software running, but the updates fixed the BlueBorne security hole...

Othat than using a Cricket SIM, the phone is stock, not rooted.

has anybody encountered the same problem? Thank you
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Chrisy8s:
So I have two Tmobile versions of this phone. one rooted/unlocked, one not. I am also having a problem with receiving OTA. Mine stock device is on an August Security patch and there have been two released patches since then. I just got off the phone with both motorola and tmobile and they are both useless. I explained over and over that i wasn't calling about the oreo release, that i was calling about ANY updates and they couldn't get that through their head. Further, tmobile states they haven't released an 8.0 ota which we all know is false since several people on this forum have received it.... very frustrating. I may have to unlock my stock device if I ever want an actual update.
