[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Link420able:
So my phone has been running great since the conversion and still flys on ATT LTE, however I am a Mobile rep and I switch carriers on occasion, hence why I was wondering if the US998 modems actually enables the 800mhz CDMA band and allows me to use the verizon LTE bands.

Im not new to flashing and trying things out, and I can easily get my hands on a verizon android sim (yes there is a difference) to test anything.

Thoughts?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
The US998 is the "carrier unlocked" version, and many people have used US998 on Verizon, so there's no question the US998 has that band.

Converting any other North America phone to that should let you have all those bands of the US998.

http://www.lg.com/us/cell-phones/lg-US998-Silver-lg-v30

US998

CDMA: 800 MHz CDMA

2G GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz

3G UMTS (HSPA):850/900/1900/2100 MHz

4G LTE Bands: 1/2/3/4/5/7/12(17)/13/20/25/66

Ill have to test APN settings and clean boot with a verizon sim then. Ive tested a sim and it pulled phone number, but was still looking for signal.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
Try making a backup in TWRP, and then flash JUST the Verizon system partition and see what you get.

rild is the daemon that talks to the modem, and Verizon may be slightly different.

What is the verdict? H931 on CDMA yay/nay?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Link420able:
It works just fine. Just depends on the rom you use. On stock us998 i can get verizon to work but on boombox, i cant get a signal.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] racsomar:
Hello. I'm planning to buy H931 and do the Frankenstein conversion to us998. The question is H931 doesn't have the UMTS 900 band but if I do the process for us998 will I have UMTS 900 or is a hardware thing?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
You will have all bands of US998.

The Frankenstein instructions make that clear.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] racsomar:
Im sorry my English is not very good. But is unbelievable that H931 doesn't show UMTS 900 band on official description and doing the Frankenstein conversion you can add that UMTS 900 band. So it means that is disabled wow.

Another question. If the H931 AT&T model is not unlocked and I do the convertion then will be unlocked? Or I have to buy the unlock code for the IMEI???
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Yes, AT&T H931 will be SIM card unlocked/network unlocked when you convert to US998.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] patato21:
OP, can you confirm that you can use LTE band 13 on your H931 (AT&T) Frankenstein phone? I converted my VS996 to US998 10b, unlocked bootloader, updated to 20e (KDZ), and rooted with magisk 17.3. I can use T-Mobile VoLTE but can't connect to their LTE band 12. I've tried the US998 Hidden Menu hack by using T-Mobile's LTE band menu and selecting LTE bands 2, 4, 12, 66, and 71. When I leave only band 12 selected I only get 3G or 2G EDGE. Maybe T-Mobile doesn't like my phone's IMEI as it's from Verizon. On AT&T, I never got stable LTE because my old G4 was from T-Mobile, and it always dropped to 3G after a while. If hardware isn't the issue then it leads me to believe T-Mobile whitelists only their branded devices for band 12.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Link420able:
I get the success message when clicking on band 13 in the hidden menu. I am using the latest stock US998 rom. Its given me the best reception and still runs fluid as can be.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Link420able:
Also, did you just insert your sim card into the phone from your previous device or did you manually enter your IMEI to your phone number in your T-Mobile account? Is the sim card brand new or several years old? Not being nosey or questioning your ability, just making sure your device properly activated on T-Mobiles network for best network performance. I don't think T-Mobile is picky with verizon IMEIs as 99% of verizon phones are sim unlocked out of the box and T-mobile likes to advertise towards verizon customers.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] patato21:
My T-Mobile service is actually through Tracfone. I activated it on a G5 H830 (TMO), and then moved over to a V20 H910 (AT&T). I did notice poorer reception on the V20 because I rarely locked into band 12. I always had excellent reception on the G5 and frequent band 12. I tried this SIM just now on a Canadian G6 H873 from Videotron, went into hidden menu *#546368#*873# -> Field test -> Modem settings -> LTE Band Selection -> Band 12. I instantly got Band 12 locked in, but went back to Automatic mode: (Field Test -> Network Mode -> Automatic). This band selection menu leaves you locked to that LTE band only, and you can't select multiple, so I went back and got Band 4 which is stronger in my house. If it were rooted, there's a hidden LTE menu that allows you to select multiple bands (through "tmo only" and iot menu, search LTEBand and BandSelection in shortcut master lite when rooted). Doing this on my VS996 -> US998 it falls back to 3G as it can't find Band 12 for some reason. I've tried wiping the modemst1 and modemst2 partitions to no avail. I'm now on the AS998 (ACG or C-Spire?) 20b KDZ. It should be identical to the LS998 (Sprint) modem and supports bands 2, 4, and 12. I kept TWRP recovery by not flashing the recovery in LGUP, INSTANTLY GO INTO FACTORY RESET (Power + Vol up) or else recovery will be wiped, flashed magisk 17.3, Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt, lg-rctd-disabler, erased modemst1/2, and booted up. The hidden menu in the AS998 has all bands greyed out in the hidden menu only accessible through root, and the LTE band selection menu reports FAILED on all bands, so it's locked to the stock bands of the AS998/LS998. I'll report later on my findings.

TWRP Terminal command to wipe modemst1 and modemst2:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modemst1 bs=16384
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modemst2 bs=16384
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
I'm confused. Do they want band 13 or band 12? They started talking about band 13, then started talking about T-mobile band 12.

---------- Post added at 05:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:52 PM ----------

Do you want band 12 or band 13?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] patato21:
I want band 12, I just found it amazing that OP has band 13 and CDMA on his H931 -> US998. Mainly because the H931 is GSM and shouldn't come with an ESN/pESN, just IMEI and MEID. And due to Verizon being picky about devices. I had an RS988 G5 and that didn't work well with them.

When you convert it with Frankenstein, it converts to have all the bands.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] patato21:
Not mine, I converted a VS996 -> US998 and don't get band 12 or 17. I the same SIM on a G6 from Canada (H873) and band 12 works on Tracfone via T-Mobile and on AT&T (prepaid).
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
No one else has said this, in fact the opposite.

I'm not talking about T-mobile at all, as they have put specific requirements on their band 12 due toWifi calling, etc.

But many are using us998 on T-mobile, whether converted or original.

That doesn't prove you don't have band 12. Also, ATT no longer calls band 17 as 17. On all newer phones, it's band 12, as 17 is a subset of 12. If you look at the H931 specs it says "12" , not 17. Their 12 is fully interoperable with T-mobile band 12 and includes 17.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] patato21:
Right, the US998 and H931 don't have band 17 support. AT&T transmits at band 17 and 12. But it's irrelevant to my issue. Any further suggestions?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
It has band 17, but INSIDE band 12. Same way, "Georgia" includes "Atlanta". So, really no need to list both band 12 and 17.

ATT H931 V30 ALSO doesn't have "band 17" even though it's AT&T phone. AT&T now calls it band 12.

I call it band 12/17 so people who haven't kept up don't get confused.

If you correctly DL Partition an H931 to US998 you WILL have these bands:

http://www.lg.com/us/cell-phones/lg-US998-Silver-lg-v30

US998

CDMA: 800 MHz CDMA

2G GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz

3G UMTS (HSPA):850/900/1900/2100 MHz

4G LTE Bands: 1/2/3/4/5/7/12(17)/13/20/25/66
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Link420able:
All mine show to work properly as chazzmatt was mentioning. The only rom that seems to like verizon that I have tried is the stock US998. I havent tested T-Mo on my device to see how it handles thier portions of the bands.

This may be irrelevant, but by mid-late 2019, verizon should be LTE only. Roughly 30% of towers are currently coverted over. My area is basically LTE only for verizon, at which I have confirmed with my account manager. Even though my converted H931 didnt have the CDMA bands originally, im likely only using LTE for calling/texting which have worked flawlessly when I test sims.

The 800mhz CDMA band on verizon is primary used for alerts and misc anymore. So that may have a hand in my H931 doing well on verizon.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] patato21:
It's why I won't move to Verizon. They'll soon be VoLTE only and that means calls won't work on AOSP ROMs as few of them have working VoLTE. Android P will be the last for the V30. Great to see LG merely re-branded the V30 and made the V30S with 8.0 treble (Joan), though 8.1 would have been better. This should give us some more juice. Huge thanks to the sabotage-er(s) over at the LG V-series team for using the same RSA keys ;) first the V20, now the V30, blessed. LG as always was lazy to give us 8.0 with the November V30 and 9.0 pie with the V40. Anyways my issue is now fixed but I won't go through the hassle of explaining it here.

https://xdaforums.com/lg-v30/help/lte-bands-12-17-vs996-us998-t3862627
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
V30S doesn't have Treble. It's just a V30+ with more RAM. All Joan phones (V30/V30+/V30S) have Oreo now, and none have official Treble.

You are thinking of the V35 -- which is basically an LG G7 in V30 frame. V35 is an actual new phone (JUDYP) that "launched" with Oreo and thus has Treble.

Whereas, 2018 V30S is just another V30 variant in the "Joan" series , which launched in 2017 with Nougat. Yes, the V30S came with Oreo, but is still in the V30 (JOAN) series that launched with Nougat, so no Treble.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] patato21:
Hmm, I reckoned that was how we got some of the treble builds and /vendor partition support. If it's true then it's sleazy of LG to slack off on treble support for the V30S given that google required treble for devices that ship with 8.0 or above (Google Play Certification).
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Read my

reason why above

. It clearly explains it.

No, the loophole is that Treble requirement is for phones that LAUNCH with Oreo. The V30 series didn't launch with Oreo, it launched with Nougat. And any subsequent V30 variants are STILL V30 (JOAN) phones.

All devices that launch with Android 8.0 Oreo or above must fully support Project Treble.

All devices that upgrade to Android 8.0 Oreo are not required to fully support Project Treble.

The V30S is just another in the V30 series, like the V30+ (which has more internal memory than V30). Same code name JOAN, same CPU, same cameras, same frame. V30S only has more RAM, but it's still JOAN. That's why the WTF bootloader unlock exploit works on V30S and why you can use JOAN TWRP on V30S. It's why you can flash anyUS998 KDZ on V30S. V30/V30+/V30S - - ALL the same phone.

I know LG tried to market the V30S as a completely different phone -- since they were competing against Samsung Galaxy S9/S9+ which launched at the same time -- but it's clear it's just another V30.

Whereas the 2018 V35 (JudyP ) and G7 (JudyN) and V40 (JudyNP) are different phone series (Snapdragon 845, etc) launching with Oreo. And they do have official Treble.

We have treble builds and (unofficial) vendor partition support thanks to [MENTION=3475147]SGCMarkus[/MENTION]. If I remember correctly he was able to use some stuff from the V35.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dharakv:
Hi. I got myself into an unfortunate situation.

I made a build.prop backup to an external media few days ago prior to making changes. Today I decided to revert back to the old build.prop file by copying it to /system directory (overwriting the modified build.prop) and when I rebooted the phone, it was stuck on the LG logo... Here's the situation: I had root but no custom recovery. Can access a shell through send_command.exe but no adb. I want to backup all my photos, videos, and other files.

Shell has some basic unix commands like cp, df, mv, rm, etc... but I can't figure how to mount an external SD card and copy my photos, videos, downloads, etc...

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

PS: apologize for my ignorance.. had no idea transferring a perfectly good build.prop will brick...

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] azsl1326:
Just got the 6 today. Connected it to my Win10 pc to transfer files and notice that the internal storage/phone is not showing in windows explorer. Spent the next few minutes installing OnePlus drivers, changing cables, etc. all to no avail. I am unable to get the phone to show in windows explorer with USB Debugging checked along when using MTP. However, if I deselect USB Debugging, the phone now shows in windows explorer along with all files and folders. I have done a hard reset - which actually put me in a bootloop for an hour or so - thanks to OnePlus Support. Upon resolving the bootloop, my phone was completely wiped and set it up again. I still have the same issue. The only item that shows in windows explorer when USB Debugging is connected is the drivers folder for OnePlus - see image 1. I also have an error in device manager for MTP - see image 2.

I currently have the 5T and have no issues viewing it in windows explorer with USB Debugging selected. Also, if I select PTP (pictures) rather than MTP, it shows in windows explorer albeit with only two folders DCIM / Pictures.

Any suggestions are certainly appreciated as I am sure when I call OnePlus Support back in the AM they will be clueless and tell me to ship the phone back.
