Just wondering if it's still waterproof :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Yom:
At most, all he will accomplish with an USB Killer stick is to fry the contacts on the USB port if it's not securely plugged in. The S7 is immune to the USB killer stick.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] wratnik:
I confirm it's waterproof as before. Since repair, I had it with me several times in wellness tub, sauna, jacuzzi (warm water - more risk to "loosen" the adhesive), also took some slo-mo videos during water sliding and there is no sign of water / drops / mist in the phone. I am taking it to the sea in 3 weeks (for the 3rd summer in a row). The phone is holding together like new. It also suffered a few drops - no damage.

Just a note - USB charging is not working several hours after bath. It must dry completely. So bring a wireless charger if you plan to bathe with your s7 edge.

The best phone in my life. It's so durable. Although.. note 8 would be a nice upgrade :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Megan5542:
I have been using my phone for 2 years last month I thought will replace battery, in local Samsung shop battery replacement cost £60 together with the battery but I thought I will try it myself. Bought battery for £20

Few tools to open the phone, hair dryer. Tube of silicone, double sided tape.

Local shops are filled up with spare parts for s7 edge back plate motherboards etc and they're cheap in case if I damaged anything.

It took me around 2 hours to replace the battery and haven't damaged anything, was thinking will test if my phone is still waterproof. Well Samsung says originally I can put my phone underwater 0.5m deep for 30 min and it should still work.

I did extended water resistance test. Used fishing rod and there's lake just behind my house. Attached my phone and dropped it I think around 4m deep and went back home and came back in the evening around 8 hours later thinking either fish ate my phone or surely it died, pulled it back and there were few messages on the screen, someone texted me while my phone was on the bottom of the lake.

I guess I have waterproofed my phone better than Samsung ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Alex-M8:
The back glass is extremely easy to repair though, I'd know since i've replaced it myself on my S7E about 5 times now. Usually a new OEM glass battery cover replacement only costs about 20 bucks.

Hello I'm in the same situation and i am based in the eu to do i still have to hard brick the device or just send it to samsung thanks in advance

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] wratnik:
no need to hard brick, just send it as is.

Hello, did they change your motherboard and knox is 0 now or you received it with same motherboard with knox 1 ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] RazzaMataz:
Microwave? Cook some chips..
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Beefheart:
Don't presume being in the EU will get your phone repaired. I've sent 4-5 Samsung devices for repair in the last 5 years, all with tripped Knox. Whether they refuse to repair is basically a lottery, dependant on what repair centre it goes to and how thorough the engineer is with the checks prior to carrying out what needs to be done.

And the law means nothing, you think they will repair it because someone threatens to spend more money on court costs than the phone is worth? Nah, they'll laugh on your face and call your bluff.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Lunaous:
Just delete and add a few files in the firmware and flash it. Sure to **** something up

Do you mean the stock firmware in odin or do you use TWRP? Thanks in advance.

Hello,

is there modded stock gallery which would allow external video player to be used? Now it always will use default inbuilt video player, leaving my MxPlayer unusable.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ShaRkK45:
also looking for this...
[P3600 General] The FD:
I hope someone can answer this for me.

How do you put an anniversary in your calendar without putting a start date? Is it possible?

I have an anniversary which shows up with a line through the little arrows which stand for a recurring item.

This item doesn't show a year (number in brackets) after it on my PDA.

I have no idea how I have done this, but would want to replicate it because this would be useful for some anniversary's where I don't know the start year.
[P3600 General] ShaftMan:
I'd like to know if is posible..

i have been trying that too.
[P3600 General] PaulusUK:
If you insert the birthday or anniversary date in the Contacts' details, then it will show up in the calendar with the number in brackets.

Check this, but I think you have to sync the PDA with Outlook on the PC for it to do this, as I don't think the anniversaries or birthdays show up if you just alter the Contact details on the PDA - but try it.
[P3600 General] The FD:
What about for having St Patrick's day showing on your PPC. There is no start year, it is the same day every year so I don't want to have to manually put it in every year!

Any ideas for that?
[P3600 General] PaulusUK:
Just put it in as a recuring item! There is no need to have a start year or even a year count in brackets for this type of reminder

BTW, forget St Pats day and don't forget to add April 23rd :p
[P3600 General] The FD:
Sorry I don't get this. If I put it in as a recurring item on an anual basis, as an all day event, then next year it automatically has a 1 in brackets after it. I don't see a way of putting it as a recurring item and not getting the year count! If it is weekly or monthly then it doesn't have it, but yearly does?

Please explain further if I am being a bit daft!

Should I put it as a timed entry?
[P3600 General] n0t:
For holidays for a specific country, in Outlook at the desktop go to options calendar options - add holidays, and choose your country. Then sync your PDA and you'll have national holidays.

For anniversary, use the contacts. That way you'll have them on calendar every year. Even if you don't know the year make a guess.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ern88:
I have the H933 variant of the V30. I want to wipe the partition cache after the Oreo update. I have tried the Pwr + down arrow. And then release power button and hold again at the boot screen. The only option I have is to factory reset the phone. I don't get the normal recovery options. Any help would be appreciated.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] scott47:
When I reboot into recovery, I am given the same choice on my US998. I choose factory reset, then I choose factory reset again. After all that, I get a screen that shows the "unlocked device" message for a moment and then finally TWRP.

I have had a situation where TWRP was NOT installed and when I did this my phone was completely erased...

Since then I have installed Quick Reboot Pro (free!) from the Google Play store. If your phone is rooted it gives you an option to boot into recovery. It goes straight to recovery and doesn't need any of the other (risky in my opinion) steps :)
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] francois amon:
Turn Off Your device.

Now Press and Hold Volume Down+Power button for 2-3 Seconds Until LG Logo Appears.

Release the volume down Button (hold power) Press and Hold them Again.

Hold the Buttons until the Recovery Mode Screen Appears.

Now You Are in the Recovery mode of Your device.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] doggydog2:
i succeeded only when gave up and approved Factory Reset then it finally switched to Recovery mode. Took 1 hour to find out, not a single guide on the internet or here was correct. I wonder if the reset really happened? Is reset prerequisite to run recovery mode?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Not if you are rooted. If the WTF guide I tell people to install a reboot recovery app that will take them straight to recovery.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Alibaba0101:
worst case you could always use fastboot...

if your phone has twrp recovery, then it won't reset the phone. if you are running stock it will.

Agree with chazz though, assuming you have root and a bootable rom - reboot recovery is the best option

I never did really figure out why the lg phones can't boot directly into recovery using the buttons
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] hitokage004:
If you install a terminal app, you can also get into recovery that way - "su" and then "reboot recovery".
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] lost_:
I posted this on yt [YOUTUBE]VJF8oTGqohg[/YOUTUBE]
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Xblackberryuser:
I just realized magisk has the option to reboot to recovery. I've only used super su in the past.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] doggydog2:
well of course we have tons of apps, and recovery choice in power menu. but the boot shortcuts is the concern. those really suck.. can't even memorize them. need to write it down on the back of the phone:)
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] gazzacbr:
+1 here for confusion. I uninstalled Magisk after it strangely stopped working during the night and also could only to fastboot. After googling I also did the button dance to reset and yes then yes then got to twrp.

Nothing lost but strange way to go on (rooted device) :confused:

Actually, as I thought I had reset everything I updated to 21a so wasn't an entirely wasted 30 mins or so :D

Hello,

I'd like to go back to stock rom (6.0.1 ideally) but after flashing LineageOS it seems I can't go back anymore.

Flashing through Odin doesn't work anymore.

What can I do now ? Thanks !
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] rabies876:
Go to

Rom/kernel/recovery.

Look for "stockrom lite sm520f" and also download gapps and flash

Can anyone tell me if LGV30+ has got the Oreo update in India or not? Waiting for your reply? And if it got the update then how is the battery life and performance after the update.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
No, not been released to India yet. Not even all U.S.carriers have it.

Sent via open market LG US998 V30/V30+
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Phreaky:
There's a thread for V30+ India - please follow that. Am sure it'll be put up as soon as the OTA hits
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ashish8871:
Lh v30+ oreo update

No its not been yet came in india.

Hope it will come in may 18
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] vinodkumardevadi:
Just got the OTA update for Oreo and AI Cam on my V30+ with April 1 security patch. Update size is about 2 GB. Yet to check the battery life and other performance improvements, if any.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] souvikxda:
You got this on 30th April? Please, let us know the battery life and the camera.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] vinodkumardevadi:
Yes, just got it today. Will post an update on battery life and camera in a couple of days.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] sai444:
Is your device Indian model? With Indian firmware?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] vinodkumardevadi:
No. I actually bought it in Singapore.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ganeshv02:
I also bought in Singapore. But using LG UP tool i had flashed to India firmware (H930DS10e_00_OPEN_ESA_DS_OP_0123.kdz). I had done this to make JIO SIM work for me.

After I connected to LG bridge tool and it popped up for software. I got OREO update but while rebooting the screen shows LG V30+ ThinQ instead of LG v30+. Do you guys know why? The software version I see is "V20B-SEA-XX"

Also earlier VOLTE was not working for my STARHUB but now it is working. Hurray! But I am worried whether JIO will work or not when I go back to India. Any thoughts?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] vinodkumardevadi:
Since the device is updated with the AI capabilities of V30S ThinQ, the V30 and V30+ are now officially ThinQ branded. V20B-SEA-XX is the latest version available. As for Jio, I think it should work just fine since the decice supports the band that Jio uses.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] vinodkumardevadi:
Ok guys, it's been 2 days since the oreo update on my V30+ and here's a brief review so far.

1) The AI camera capabilities isn't a game changer here. You'll only observe some minute differences in these areas.

Better Dynamic range.

Bright mode comes handy.

2) Battery life is considerably improved over Nougut version. The total usage time was 18h 40mins from 100% to 5% with a screen usage time of 5hr 43 mins. Played some games like PUBG and Relic Run and then sone youtube videos. After that I've downloaded 2 full hd movies in the background about 4GB. Location, wifi and mobile data were ON the whole time. Also, I didn't enable the battery saver too. So I think this is very good compared to all the other flagship devices with similar battery capacity.

3) No update is without cons and in this case, too many app crashes. Frequent YouTube crashes and then I constantly receive the pop-up "Unfortunately, this app has stopped" for the app "Appy Geek" which I use as a widget. Some of the other apps crash too and this is really annoying.

4) Even when you select Icon shape as "Original" in the Home screen settings, you still get rounded square icons. It makes no sense!!

Overall, Oreo update isn't exactly something to look forward to until these bugs are fixed.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] rm8226:
Strange i am from india i didn't receive any update its still on the march security patch
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] mehra1:
He got the update coz he bought it from Singapore and sea variant got the update. India is still laging behind but nonetheless you can flash the Hong Kong ds one.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] rm8226:
Did flash the hong kong ds my jio VOLTE was unable to make or recieve call because apparently the VOLTE wasn't working
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] achyut:
Do a factory reset after a version upgrade. it'll fix the errors.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] mehra1:
For the time being instal Jio4gVoice app from playstore as it works for me.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] rm8226:
Didn't work tried i installed the app it said phone is VOLTE use dialer app
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ganeshv02:
Actually jio did not work when I had android 7.1.2 when I was in India last time. Then I had to flash to Indian firmware found on lg-firmwares.com. I made it work after that by enabling volte from hidden menu. With oreo, I will try one more time when I visit India in July.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ganeshv02:
Try to use the hidden menu to enable volte. If it still does not work then u have to flash back to India firmware. As I mentioned jio is not working on other region firmware. I had the same problem.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] rm8226:
Yea i flashed back to indian firmware
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ganeshv02:
Which firmware did you use? Can u tell me? And is volte setting persistent or disappears after reboot?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] rm8226:
I used Hk h930 ds and yes volte didnt work from the first boot up was unable.to call.or recieve calls on my jio mobile number
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ganeshv02:
Flashed back meaning, you did a factory reset or use one of the firmwares available in lg-firmwares.com? If yes which exact firmware did you use? I want to flash to that so Volte/Jio will work for me next time when I am in India.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] rm8226:
Flashed from.lg firmwares the latest IND firmware
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ganeshv02:
Thanks. Is jio volte working without having to enable from hidden menu and is it persistent between reboots? I tried flashing latest one on my Singapore model but I had enable volte from hidden menu (not the clean way)
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] rm8226:
Jio not working for me that is the reason i flashed back to indian firmware
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ganeshv02:
Thanks. What software version do you see in about phone? When I used the ones available in lg-firmwares.com I got v10i-global-com. Is that what u got?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] mehra1:
I am on hk ds oreo and Jio is working fine though not able to use volte but with jio4gVoice app I can call and recieve calls. Dont know why this isnt working for others.

My jio 4g voice calling app was saying use dialer app your phone ia VOLTE
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ganeshv02:
In order to use volte to make direct calls u have to flash to India firmware available at lg-firmwares.com. Even after flashing it won't work out of the box for Hong Kong set. U need to enable volte from hidden menu. I have mentioned how to do this in another thread.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] rm8226:
I flashed HK ds oreo firmware tried everything didn't work
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ganeshv02:
I don't get u. What is your requirement? Where did u buy the phone and where ru located?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] rm8226:
I bought the phone from amazon india and i stay in india only i flashed hk oreo because oreo update isnt out yet in india but in hk after trying everything jio volte didnt work so i had to switch back to indian firmware
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] mehra1:
I was on latest indian available rom then installed the eu global one and afterwards installed hk ds one over EU. And i haven't formatted my phone once and everything is running nice.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] achyut:
volte too??
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] rm8226:
Not for me strange
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] mehra1:
Volte isn't working but with jio4gvoice app call service is working.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ganeshv02:
Makes sense now. Jio volte will not work on any other firmware except Indian version. Unfortunately u cannot enjoy Oreo until it is officially released.

---------- Post added at 02:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:18 PM ----------

Using jio 4g voice is pretty useless in my opinion. It does not work all the time and u can hear other people speaking. I will not trade off jio volte for oreo update. I don't see major benefit upgrading.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] rm8226:
I don't think indian users will get oreo lg forgot they sold the mobile in india too ?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] SRS84:
I hope they release the oreo update soon. Even i update my budget handset honor 7x to oreo couple of weeks back. It's real shame that tier one company is making fools out of its customers. It's really sad.

EXACTLY. Any India user can flash

to get Oreo. Furthermore, that H930DS version has fastboot flash commands and you can unlock bootloader, root, and install custom ROMs if you wish.

WTF V30/V30+/V30S Bootloader Unlock and Root (MOST VARIANTS)

---------- Post added at 09:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:13 AM ----------

FYI, for those who don't know what we are referring to in the "June 2018 security patch." But we are trying to warn people.

Android Security Bulletin: Everything you need to know!

https://www.androidcentral.com/android-security-bulletin

NOTE: "critical issues with the bootloader were patched by Qualcomm and LG." Qualcomm is even getting involved.

What does that sound like? Fixing the LG Oreo bootloader unlock exploit, where ANY unlock.bin command (even one for a Huawei phone) will unlock the bootloader, even if it says it FAILS? :p

Yes, [MENTION=6158380]TxanMoe[/MENTION] then created his own new_unlock.bin code which does not give a "FAIL" notice, and I also

experimented with an "official" LG Developer website bootloader unlock code

on one of my eBay LS998 V30+ which I converted to US998 V30+. It succeeded, but should not have since it was for a open market V30 with another IMEI and DeviceID. The current LG Oreo exploit something so wonderful you can only dream about it. But it's real. And it sounds like LG and Qualcomm are rushing to close it.

But anyone who ever wants root should unlock their bootloader now or risk forever that door being closed.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] vkevin16:
I checked firmware download page for H930DS and except India, Oreo is now available in every other region for H930DS.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ankit360:
:eek: don't know what they are testing in Indian firmware.

Hope it's will come with good volte compatibility.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] achyut:
I've a question man. I have a KDZ of Indian firmware of 7.1.2

If I unlock the bootloader and root, install TWRP, would I be able to switch back to 100% stock unrooted when I want? Double checking just because I sell off phones very often.

Anyone can please let me know? Is it possible to return to completely unrooted stock Indian version with KDZ flashing via LG UP?

Awaiting answers...
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] mehra1:
I have seen that in past with lg g5 also that Phillipines roms are similar to ours. Even the naming convention is same. So if you want you can try out the nougat rom first to check volte services is working or not and if its working then you can flash oreo version. If its isn't working in nougat itself you can easiy flash the Indian Nougat from Phillipines.
