[LG V30 Questions & Answers] jcsww:
APN settings are important! When lookin at a lot of reviews on Amazon in regard to any product. Most people are stupid! I don't own a 930DS but I have seen screenshots of the LTE Band menu. It supports more bands than are listed on the box that are enabled and working. Asian models will not come with US APN settings and even if they do, I would delete them and enter them manually. Has anyone actually tried that? I have no idea but most consumers just stick their SIM in things and expect them to work, regardless of where it came from.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ccval:
I would think they should already have APN settings configured, otherwise, without it, they wouldn't be able to get 3G/any service at all?

But yeah, it would be nice if someone that has a H930DS can confirm. I am trying to buy one but would really appreciate if someone can confirm before doing so. Don't want to get one and have no LTE signals.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] jcsww:
Understandable. I haven't been able to find any locally in Canada or in western Virginia. Then again, western Virginia is fairly rural and I don't want to purchase one online. The screens are too much of an issue on these devices to risk buying one from Ebay, Swappa, Kijiji, and other online sites.

I know Amazon.com has them but I am up in Canada right now and don't want to pay import fees and taxes to bring it to Canada. Amazon may also have a great return policy but I would hate to have to send it back because of screen banding and color uniformity issues. In Toronto, band 2 and 4 are very common and would be easily enough to test with my T-Mobile USA SIM while roaming. Any of the stores I have been in at Pacific Mall don't carry them.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ccval:
I took the chance and bought a H930DS. Unfortunately, it indeed does NOT have Band 2/4/12/17. Confirmed it doesn't work with AT&T or T-Mobile LTE in the US (checked with Network Info app, as well as using the hidden menu to test). In fact 4G (HSPA/HSPA+) doesn't work neither, so I'm only getting 2G/3G service. Wasted my time and money. Very disappointing.

This could have been a very nice and popular phone, but LG messes it up by not marketing it well, plus all these different hardware differences (making it so difficult for people like us who just want to import this phone).
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] jcsww:
That seems odd that the engineering menu lists the bands but they don't work. If they were disabled, they simply wouldn't show up. Did you manually set the APN's when you tested and did you use T-Mobile and AT&T SIM's? The T-Mobile variant (H932) as far as I know is the only model that actually allows manual band selection but I don't think anyone has actually tried on the 930DS. Trying to manually select the band on other devices has caused some issues for some though but for most, putting the phone in airplane mode for about 30 seconds and then turning that off has re-enabled auto band selection.

There actually isn't any hardware differences between them outside of the extra storage in the + versions. It is the software and firmware differences that define the model numbers.

I'm in Rochester NY which is urban but a small city. in the test menu both b4 and b12 are missing which should be why

---------- Post added at 05:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:08 PM ----------

I did find this pretty interesting thread on enabling bands on the LG G4:

https://xdaforums.com/g4/general/guide-enabling-lte-bands-t3137818

but given that I need bootloader unlock + root; and given that the H930DS isn't on the LG bootloader unlock support list it probably won't be possible.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] HeartFist:
I find this very strange, why does my HKG-H930DS show the B4 and the B12 and yours / others wouldn't? Still have to wait until at least April before I am in the US to test my model myself...
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ccval:
It shows, but when you press them (like B2/B4/B12), it will fail. I believe it's just a generic menu that appears on LG phones, it shows the band on the menu doesn't mean the phone has the band/hardware supported. Worst thing is it wouldn't even connect 4G (HSPA/HSPA+), so only 2G/3G. I've already returned the phone after testing it.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] NigPod:
Thanks, thats what I actually meant. It says fail when you tap on them. I'm

now thinking of giving the phone to my dad back in HK. I recently went down to NYC and I couldn't even get 3g in many places; ended up putting the sim in my dead-ish S7 and hotspotting to my V30 for a week.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ccval:
Same experience I had.

It's sad, it's such a nice phone and could sell very well, but LG messed it up. LG USA marketing is bad and they decided to only release two boring colors (really just one, the black V30+ is executive to T-Mobile unless you buy the US998 unlocked version, which they ask for $929 MSRP). I didn't mind importing it, but LG then decided to make it so difficult to get a USA LTE compatible model. I got the Raspberry Rose for my wife (she liked that color so much, also the violet) and ended up returning it. I wanted the Moroccan Blue but again, couldn't find one that has USA LTE bands. :(

Someone has tried thishttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.qtrun.QuickTest
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
No, U.S. Cellular also sells the black V30+, even since the first week of October and they are SIM card unlocked. They are identical in every way to the open market LG V30+ (especially since the open market LG V30+ can't yet be bootloader unlocked).

I agree the colors should be more. LG announces tons of colors then don't actually make phones with those colors. They said it's "carrier choice" but carriers say no, it's what LG forces on them. And then the open market US998 has nothing to do with carriers. LG could make those in as many colors as they wished.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] HeartFist:
Will not work on H930DS since Root is not avaible for this device.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] HeartFist:
I was able to test my HKG H930DS in the US in the meantime: with a foreign SIM that books into T-Mobile's network with data roaming switched on I would get only 2G.

With a US SIM from AT&T I would get 3G. I ran a speed test and reached 4,714 kbit/s download and 1,035 upload with a ping of 229 ms.

With another foreign SIM that books into AT&T's network I had the 4G symbol. I don't know if this was only some sort of error or if I would have been able to use 4G. I didn't run a speed test as mobile data while roaming is very expensive with this SIM. In theory it could be possible that the H930DS will get 4G because according to frequencycheck.com it has coverage for 1 out of 4 LTE bands used by AT&T.

930DS Frankenstein Flashing did not enable AWS

H930DS Frankenstein Flashing

Bootloader on the 930DS has been unlocked using the fake boot.bin method and the device has been rooted and TWRP installed. Here is what we've found cross-flashing different V30 variants software on the H930DS hardware:

1: H933 (aka Canadian model) firmware installs and boots without issue, only problems are the lack of ADB and Fastboot capabilities in kernel and a disabled modem.

2: US988 firmware installs and bootloops continually once the phone setup begins. Never had the chance to configure phone and attempt to root

3: LS988 (aka Sprint CDMA model) firmware installs and boots without issue, only problems are the lack of ADB and Fastboot capabilities in kernel and a disabled modem.

We are trying to get access to the AWS frequencies available to North American devices and on rooted H930DS downloaded “Shortcut Master (Lite) and tried to enable AWS frequencies, phone phone shows all LTE bands available except Band 46 ( Available bands include 66 and 71) and all WCDMA/GSM available except WCDMA 900. Any ideas?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
I've already answered this in one of the several threads you've posted this.

Do you want me to copy and paste my answer several times?

If the bands are showing available, are you saying they're not really working?

"phone phone shows all LTE bands available except Band 46 ( Available bands include 66 and 71) and all WCDMA/GSM available except WCDMA 900. "

---------- Post added at 05:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:36 PM ----------

1) Then you should probably do that, get LS998. That's the safest option that will get you North America carrier bands.

2) The Korean guys bootloader unlocked and rooted their Korean carrier variants with H930, then created a US998 zipped file which they flashed in TWRP to get US998. It's down in the ROM section. If you try that, the risk is on you.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Other people can answer -- but you and I have already discussed this:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=79844641&postcount=1429

The issue is except for LTE band 5, H930DS doesn't have the major LTE bands used by U.S. carriers. And even LTE band 5 isn't "major" -- it's more a supplemental band. In the U.S., you will have HSPA (3G) but not LTE coverage.

You really need a North American variant in the U.S.

Hello. I'm looking to buy a Fire HD10 as my old Android tablet (which I simply use for media) broke. I don't like Amazon's FireOS and want to install an AOSP based custom rom (like lineage OS). Is that currently possible or should I get a different tablet?

I wanted a cheap 10" tablet primarily for media, like you, so I grabbed the new Fire HD10 when it was $99 for Black Friday. This was before there were any rooting methods identified, but I figured that wasn't far off. Sure enough, we obtained root shortly after. With that, and after replacing the firelauncher with Nova Launcher, I'm perfectly happy with mine for its intended purpose of media consumption. Any custom ROMs that may come along after will just be icing on the cake, in my estimation.

Thanks for your answer, in fact my question was more like "how to access to my LAN connected devices, and I'm a Mac user with 2 Mac connected, one on a lan connexion, the other one via wifi (MBair), and I have also 1 NAS connected to this network, in order to be able to play (for exemple) mp3 or video files located on a Mac or on the NAS from my S7, or the reverse opération, playing media files located on my S7 from from of my Mac or my internet box without having to transfer the files locally".

I managed to create sftp connexions, but that only allows file transfers, not remote playing.

In fact I would like to turn my S7 into a "regular" network connected device. I understood that Android can connect easily to windows networks and it is possible to have a network with Mac and windows devices connected together. Why not not an Android device with Mac devices to NAS devices ? I don't want to connect the S7 with a wired connection, I still want to use the wifi connection. Like my MacBook Air is connected with wifi to my local network.

I don't know if this is clear... My English is not perfect and my LAN knowingness is even more tiny...

ES File Explorer can create LAN/FTP connections for playing between network connected devices

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] essor-13:
I surely made something wrong with ES Explorer, I tried it, because I couldn't create a LAN connection. Only sftp. Did you configure something special on you Mac ? I removed ES Explorer because I was overwhelmed with notifications (battery saving, etc)... And it seems that it creates internet connexions even when I don't use it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] *Detection*:
I'm not using a Mac, the connection it makes is LAN so should work on both PC and Mac alike / anything with network access

The free version of ES File Explorer is full of ads, I bought the Pro version

Left Hamburger menu > Network > LAN > + sign for making a new connection > Enter IP address of NAS and login

(Or press the top scan button to auto discover)

You can create FTP server connections on the phone using ES too afaik but have not done that yet, I used to use FTP Server app on the play store for that, and FileZilla Client on the PC (Any FTP client Mac alternative will work)

Some suggestions I found:

If you're trying to connect to a mac, take it from me and give up on AFP & SMB.

Just follow wrxtasy's advice and use NFS with NFS Manager. It works perfectly.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] anthony.moua95:
I just found out today that whenever I try to get into the Connected devices menu in settings, it will either:

A. Get into the menu right away but then freeze for about 5-10 seconds before I can click on anything else within that menu (Bluetooth, Cast, etc)

Or

B. It will get "stuck" at the main settings menu for a few seconds then a black screen shows up for several seconds and then it will finally enter the actual Connected devices menu

No other menu I go into lags or hangs up like this menu whatsoever. I have shared a link of a video as to what I mean. Also, anything I do within that menu will take several seconds to respond or activate/deactivate. It's not necessarily a deal breaker or anything as I only use Bluetooth anyways (which I activate from the quick settings menu anyways). But it's annoying nonetheless. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure if I may have disabled something important via Titanium that causes this or maybe something happened when I OTA'd to the 5 January 2018 security update.

Need the make and model of what you are calling a "bluetooth pen" before that question can be answered. If you are asking if there are Pens, other than the ones from Samsung, that will work with the P580, then the answer is yes. If you are asking if there are Pens that will will work with a T580 with the fine lines of an S-Pen, then I've never heard of one other than experimental attempts.
