Any plans for a pixel XL version? Or is this compatible with the XL?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] faylix:
Thanks brother, The rom works excellent after I figured out the install process. Turns out it wasn't just fastboot and adb i had to upgrade it was the makefs2 and the other stuff. Once I followed the directions to the letter though it worked perfectly.

Still hoping you will respond to my PM.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] blackjok3r:
I would just like to say that I have tried just about every god damn rom to try and flash to my pixel... and this the only one that works... It was so easy to install, but to be honest after a few days without google apps and a broken hotspot while away from home, I was about ready to smash the phone. Since spent an entire day here trying to get lineage OS with microG installed with no luck, tried just about everything and have ended up going back to this one. There is a trick that enabled my hotspot that I found. If it happens to anyone else use adb to issue this command in the shell:

`settings put global tether_dun_required 0`

Anyone know how I cna get gmail app on this OS ? And how the hell do you force an update of F-Droid? For browser I just got the apk of firefox and found that I could use the website for most of the things I used to use apps for. The phone is basically usless, but at least I have a phone I guess. Rather sell it than use stock google softewars, didnt even want to update past CM13 .. but my S5 committed suicide so I was forced into it.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] blackjok3r:
After getting most of this ROM working. Google login doesnt really work with microG, everything is ticked, but it still asks for login every time you open an app. In the End I removed my google account from it, and decided that I will just have to dtich all my paid apps. Was able to get discord working, which is my main communications app I use, so all thats left is email. I guess I will deploy my own email server and use gmail to filter and forward my inbox, as using IMAP on gmail was just terrible, it made me disable security, and refused to let me send replies.

I was able to bypass F-Driod upgrade by simply moving to G-Droid, and Yalp, which seem to work pretty well. Also FireFox replacing Chromium, because thats a pretty old version now.

Mostly looking for info on how I would upgrade the Apps on this rom? I tried to compile CopperHeadOS from git, without any luck for many hours last week before just flashing this rom and calling it a day. Since flashing this rom, not a single other one apart from Google Stock works. Wonder if maybe it was this rom that changed something? :shrug:

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] mortirolo:
Has someone experienced "dancing blacks" with vertical or horizontal scrolling, specially in low bright settings?.(40 or below)

I have purchased an EU ver. Of V30 and i experience this behaviour every time i do scrolling with photos, desktop icons with black contour (like netflix) webpages with black línes or blocks... Or everything containing black colour.

When i move the photo, scroll across website... The part that contains black colour seems to dance on screen, it's hard to describe but it's something like jelly effect, the black part of the object, photo... seems slower and doesn't scroll accordingly. I went to a local store to check it on another unit and discard a faulty one and i saw the same effect.

That's the feature of all oled displays, nothing you can do with it except changing the brightness to the level it doesn't show any signs of this "violet trails"
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] elias.parasini:
i have that behavior too on my H930DS. no solution yet.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] einhuman197:
The phone regulates it's brightness through PWM, so that you don't have the same issue like on the g flex where the whole display got blurry and grayish when you turned the brightness down. Because the display shuts itself on and off many times per second (222 times according to a German review page), you see that when you are sensitive. Just set the display brightness higher, then you should be fine.

[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Whiskeyomega:
So Im testing a few various options tonight with mixer_paths_tavil.xml and I genuinely believe that LG have done goofed.

What I think ive found is the V30 has 2 sound devices (not sure if its 2 DACS) but there is a low power device which seems to be what would be the default sound device for a LG phone (maybe the G6) and there is also the decent ES9218P DAC chip.

What LG has done as made a bad job of the mixer_paths_tavil.xml which includes references a ES9018 which was never put in the phone or any phone AFAIK.

But what I have just noticed is if you are using a set of low impedance headphones . It goes through to the low power sound device chip but keeps the HIFI DAC switch working so the EQ can still work. Unless you make it think you are running a different type of headset which it calls "Advanced" which is high impedance then it runs to the decent DAC and there are no problems.

I have also noticed in all the mixer_paths_tavil.xml from around the world markets that there are differences in settings which should be the same. Which is what could account for some people saying Low Impedance still runs through the same decent DAC and some people saying it doesnt. Either way mixer_paths_tavil.xml is a maze of old and incorrect information.

So with that in mind. I'd Like to share the results of my work with more always coming.

[MENTION=4652765]Whiskeyomega[/MENTION] thanks for investigating this. It would be interesting to know in what countries the default quality is better.
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] flextremes:
I'm dying to apply [MENTION=4652765]Whiskeyomega[/MENTION] 's high impedance fixes to my v30 so I fully enjoy my Hifiman Edition X v2. The swapping cable's trick to enforce high impedance works, the bump in SQ and Volume is simply stellar, however, this method is also very cumbersome.

After successfully unlocking the bootloader I naively assumed that this would be the same as root access. I'm am now learning that this is only the first step.

So far, I did not find a guide or F.A.Q. in the v30 section of this forum how to gain full root access, especially for first timers like me.

Doing additional research I did find this article: androidblog.gs/twrp-root-lg-v30 (I'm not allowed to post links yet). I am very careful however, since 1 person responded he got stuck at his boot screen.

In general, it is clear to me I need to

1. install TWRP and

2. then load either Magisks or SuperSU, (not sure which is prefered and why )

3. so I can use SE File Explorer in root mode that allows me to write to /system/etc

Am I correct? What is the easiest way to achieve this?

I apologise, this is probably not the right location in this forum, where should I go/ask?

PS: i found another guide: guidebelajar.blogspot.nl/2017/12/guide-how-to-root-lg-v30-h930-for-Europe.html <<< it this one correct?
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ChazzMatt:
How about a guide from this very forum? ;) Written about a month ago (February 4, 2018) by [MENTION=3317865]Wotta[/MENTION]. Go to that thread and thank him for writing it up!

Unlocking and Rooting - TWRP/Magisk Step-by-Step

https://xdaforums.com/lg-v30/help/unlocking-rooting-twrp-magisk-step-step-t3745006

For point #3, I prefer

Root Explorer app

myself, but to each his or her own.

For point #2, after you flash (install) Magisk or SuperSu in TWRP (only use one or the other, not both), apps that need root access will throw up a prompt asking and you will grant root access.

SuperSu is the stalwart that will work.

I'm a big fan of SuperSu.

Magisk is the "new kid on the block" that is great about cloaking root and even bootloader unlock.

Apps like Android Pay won't allow root because merchants fear security risks. Some games like Pokemon won't allow root because you can hide VPN location changes to cheat. Stuff like that. So, they check something called SafetyNet. Magisk lets you have root and those apps won't know. I don't use Android Pay, and I don't play location-based games on my phone, but if you do that's the difference.

Actually, see the re-post below because I answered more fully in that post...

It's actually funny. I just realized I was REPLYING to [MENTION=3317865]Wotta[/MENTION], who who wrote that step by step guide I just linked above. He asked this question below about rooting on February 3. I answered, then he went through the rooting process himself, and wrote the guide the next day to help others.

That's how XDA works. ;)

__________

With Magisk, which hides bootloader unlock and root, you can still have Android Pay. It allows you to pass SafetyNet.

Yes, it's cat and mouse with Google, so you'll need to keep it updated.

But really that's the whole point of Magisk to give you root without seemingly changing your phone in any way. No alterations can be detected.

https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk

What do you lose?

Well I'm all for root but I'll play devil's advocate...

You will lose your warranty -- but you gain ownership of your phone.

You will lose easy OTA updates -- but those will always be posted here in the XDA forums in TWRP flashable form.

Usually the whole KDZ will be posted, but by that point you probably will want custom ROMs or at least tweaked, debloated stock ROMs and OTAs of just regular stock firmware won't really interest you. The ROMs are usually quickly updated to include any (safe) changes in the OTA updates.

Sometimes apps that won't work with root (Android Pay, some banking apps) will temporarily stop working until Magisk gets updated.

The past 3 years I've had a Motorola phone with "regular" root (not Magisk) and I've just not used anything like Android Pay that didn't allow me to have root. Luckily my banking app and corporate email doesn't care.

If you're in Europe, warranty isn't automatically voided when you unlock your bootloader. The LG site may have a disclaimer saying that it is, but they have to abide by European rules.

More info here : https://www.piana.eu/root/
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ChazzMatt:
True, that Europe laws supercede LG policies. But I've willingly voided my warranty on all my phones since 2014. I live in the U.S.

The reason I mentioned it prominently is because people get flustered when they see that on LG's website. Yes, you have to agree to void your warranty. Consider it VOIDED. Now whether there's loopholes (ah, you live in Europe) that's between them and LG if something happens to the phone.
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dhbiker:
It's probably coupled with their Qualcomm WCD9341 + ES9218P. But this is just a speculation/guess since "non hifi" mode works with DSD/Hires files too

Another option is that it goes through software mixer and through ES9218P with some predetermined settings
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Whiskeyomega:
It would depend on the app that controls the DAC at the time. I prefer "Direct" Mode in which all the sound is put directly with no software mixer and no EQ.

Can i somehow trigger High impedance without rooting i have V30+ H930DS
[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ChazzMatt:
1) No. At least when using this mod.

2) Technically if you install US998 WETA ROM, it has this built in to it... But you would still need bootloader unlock and TWRP for that, if not actual root.

3) You can also buy headphones with 50+ ohms impedance, and THAT will trigger high impedance mode -- with no root required. Like Soundmagic E50 or E80 series.

https://www.head-fi.org/threads/soundmagic-e50-e80-story-of-two-magicians-a-review.772661/

[LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ChazzMatt:
If you are asking about this:

Yes, but you want to make sure your headphones can handle it. There's some "premium" headphones with 32ohm, that aren't quite enough to trigger HIM (needs 50 ohms) and these mods would help. But probably you don't want use this on CHEAP quality headphones where you would have distortion.

You may want to use one of the other mods in the list that just gives you more volume. Like this:

would the dac then synonymous with viper4android work? when I replace the mixer path xml? because at the moment he does not do that with Viper4Android

You know buddy, people will know if the work is stolen or authentic when members request or ask for things...

If the OP can't do it, people will know it's not his original work...

What I did is share what I know and credited the lesson who taught me on xda, facebook and YouTube, as for crediting me, I'm pretty sure some would not mention nor credit...

In my video tutorial I said if I recall it correctly "it would be nice if you if you'd add more credit to me or leave it as it is, but if you don't want, you can delete it"...

There are few threads that had my MODs, OP didn't mention but members did, all I did is "thank you for the mention" then replied to the OP "great" or as I recall...

That's only XDA, imagine other forums that I have no clue about buddy... All you can do is be happy of what you did and how many people used it beside loving it...

For those who may be interested,

I copied the values of ESS DAC of headphones-hifi-dac from the values from headphones-hifi-dac-advabced just below them (around line 3404 in mixer_paths_travil.xml).

The sound quality, specially the loudness has improved a lot, the quality further improves using DTS-X along with Hi-Fi DAC.

Tried retaining the value of ctl name="Es9018 AVC Volume" value="15" and the loudness (and perceived quality) decreases.

Soo if i understood, i need to flash that ROM through TWRP, and i'll automatically have dual speaker mod and don't need to write any of these code(or if i need to, there will be that mixer_paths_tavil.xml which will be there after flashing that ROM, right?). Does that mean (not sure if i understand real term of ROM) that i'll change whole OS?
