Try backing up your modemst1 and modemst2 while on the working sprint rom and write down your apn info from your working account....the posted apn info around the forum is not the same for all sprint accounts, mine was different. Then you can restore the modem, modemst1 and modemst2 on us998 and enter your working apn.... guaranteed success since modemst1/st2 are unique to your account/phone and your working apn could also be different. If you backup your modemst1/st2 from your original working sprint LS998 and write down your working APN, you dont have to flash back to LS998, or any part of it, ever again if you wish not to.

backup modemst1 & modemst2 using lgup while device is functioning on sprint then add .bin filetype to the end of the filename (or any filetype you desire honestly)

flash your desired rom

enable developer options

enable adb debugging

open command prompt in adb folder with all modem files copied there

adb push modem.bin /tmp

adb push modemst1.bin /tmp

adb push modemst2.bin /tmp

adb shell

dd if=/tmp/modem.bin of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modem

dd if=/tmp/modemst1.bin of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modemst1

dd if=/tmp/modemst2.bin of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modemst2

reboot, set apn, reboot, enjoy success

if this post helps you (which it will), you can thank autoprime
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] elijah420:
okay. i have my sprint modem, modemst1, and modemst2 in my adb folder. ive copied all of my APN's down to manually enter. doing an idiot check, i noticed one of my APN's named 'ims' , the IP address keeps changing IPv6 addresses every reboot. Is this something that I need be concerned with? Otherwise, im ready to continue on.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
I have bounced arround the available rom world lol, as long as you can add the correct Sprint APN to DOT OS or Lineage or Remix well then you'll be perfectly fine and the sprint modem helps too
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] eigerzoom:
The only APN you should need is the 'active' selected one....which should probably be named 'internet'
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] elijah420:
ok. one more stupid question ...

the 'user' is 'null' and the password is just shown as '****' . .. should i just assume they mean its a nulled user, and not an actual user named 'null' that i need to figure out the 4 digit password for?

again, thanks for the help. sorry for asking stupid questions, but i'd rather ask it, and make sure Im not doing something dumb. some mistakes cant be returned from.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] eigerzoom:
I assume you are talking about the IMS APN or another stock sprint APN, this apn will not be the selected apn, and I do not think you will even need it. But historically with my limited usage of QPST the 4digit password is 1234, but you should never need it or change it from stock, and will likely already exist when you install US998. This apn is used for initial provisioning, but because we are restoring modemst1 and modemst2 this apn will never be needed since you will already be 'activated'.

ALSO I RECOMMEND TO EVERYONE TO REMOVE YOUR SIM CARD AFTER BACKING UP MODEMST1/MODEMST2 AND BEGINNING THE WTF/FRANKENSTEIN STEPS OR FLASHING ANY KDZ

I HAVE SEEN ISSUES ARISE WITH SPRINT FORCING A CALL TO CUSTOMER SERVICE TO REACTIVATE YOUR SIM WHICH IS A PAIN.....

RESTORING MODEMST1/ST2 WILL PUT YOUR DEVICE BACK INTO AN 'ACTIVATED' STATE AND WILL NOT REQUIRE PROVISIONING/REPROVISIONING YOUR DEVICE EVERY TIME YOU FLASH.

IN OTHER WORDS, SPRINT WILL NEVER KNOW YOU CHANGED YOUR DEVICE AT ALL.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] elijah420:
.... no success on my end. i ended up not being able to access the APN settings after flashing my modem, modemst1 & 2. also ended up with the wifi switch flipping itself back to off, every time i enabled it. Its getting late on my end, and i need an alarm for the AM. time to just go back to what I know is working for me in the mean time. thanks for taking the time to reply. even though i wasnt successful, the effort was greatly appreciated. Ill pick up here where i left off and retry again when the time allows it.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] eigerzoom:
That sounds like you flashed someone elses misc.bin previously....as was posted in one of the threads along the way in wtf/frankenstein ....

there is a way around this, but you will have to remain persistent

never flash someone elses misc.bin file.....

you will need root....edit the build.prop file in /system and change ro.build.target_operator=SPR to USC

then you can edit your APN

after consulting autoprime it seems the sprint modem is breaking wifi and some blobs inside /system and/or /vendor will be needed

i will try and get more info to make us998 sprint conversion easy for everyone
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] elijah420:
do you mind giving me a basic run thru? i just installed the sprint zip in the OP, and have no working WIFI any longer.

i actually didnt flash the misc. bin file that you may be thinking of from another post somewhere in the forums.

.. im beginning to get nervous now. i knew better than to stray from what worked for me.

edit: no wifi, no 3g signal either. am i totally ****ed? how do i fix this snafu? *please* advise, if you can?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] eigerzoom:
dont worry, it happened to me too...and i recovered

flash the us998 oreo kdz again

then flash the sprint zip from this thread after fastbooting twrp and all the other steps

then dd your modemst1/st2 files and you will be already activated

or you can skip the modemst1/st2 and risk provisioning normally during first boot (i consider it a risk anyways)
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] elijah420:
thank you, stranger. i appreciate the hand-holding (thats what this basically amounts to, i know).

im learning.

---------- Post added at 10:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 PM ----------

for CMA reasons:

flash us99820b oreo kdz . this brings my phone to us998 . boot up, developer options, allow usb debugging.

enter download mode, flash TWRP.

boot into twrp immediately, flash sprint zip, rctd, no verity, magisk.

disco?!
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] eigerzoom:
me too, hopefully we can tighten up the us998 to sprint conversion without the need for the sprint system entirely

it would really help the forum unify rom building if we can narrow in on why the sprint modem is breaking wifi

some dedicated people can probably figure this out with some trial and error

---------- Post added at 23:43 ---------- Previous post was at 23:38 ----------

You should be dancing after that yes

personally i remove my sim card for lgup kdz installs and then restore the modemst1 / modemst2 files , modify the build.prop to usc, add original 'internet' apn manually, insert sim

i dont like provisioning through sprint that often since it isn't necessary and has caused issues before requiring calling customer care
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] elijah420:
still no dice. ..

i flashed the oreo kdz. after booting up, i still have no wifi, and no 3g signal.

i cannot progress past this point.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] eigerzoom:
you can sideload sprint modem in twrp, rename it to modem.img and choose 'install' and then 'install image'

i was able to pass this step somehow, so i know you can too

the modem may not fully connect to sprint, but it will at least allow you to choose mobile network instead of wifi

once you get into the rom then you can continue

the other option would be to restore your backup of your working sprint rom (which i'm sure you made at some point)
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] elijah420:
... i no longer have recovery ... what do i do now?

im so friggin flustered my face is turning red.

edit ..

upon doing the button dance, i just got the android circle, with 'erasing' at the bottom.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] eigerzoom:
start over if you have to

i know, i've been through it

i maybe used the adb sideload feature in twrp to install the modemst1/modemst2 files which required the universal adb driver

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Iwd-TOixQUJ7CZBgPhTq70xQNjnDMcil
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] elijah420:
so far: i have a working recovery again. i have attempted (again) to install the sprint21aUpdate.zip in the OP.

my status hasnt changed, so far. still no working wifi, nor working 3g data service.

where do i go from here, man? ... im really sorry to be leaning on you like this, but im apparently all thumbs here.

do i start all over again? should i install the factory zip, basically unroot and re-nougat it, then go from there? im drawing a dang blank.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] eigerzoom:
skip the rctd and the no-verity-opt-encrypt files and you will have wifi back
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] elijah420:
i actually have been skipping those files. only been installing a rom, and magisk. ill give it a go with just a ROM, only.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] eigerzoom:
the only other option that i remember trying is to adb sideload the sprint modem / modemst1 / modemst2 in twrp and get some sort of connection going so you can get past the setup screen

if i remember correctly you need to use the rctd and no verity on first instance of twrp on us998, but not when you install the ls998.zip .... or maybe neither, to get wifi back

maybe wifi breaking is more related to whatever those .zips do than the modem itself.

make sure you use magisk 16.0 and not any newer version
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] elijah420:
still no bueno. im currently reflashing the Oreo KDZ onto my phone to just start over, from a 'known' state.

ive just now gotten it rebooted after flashing the US998 Oreo KDZ onto it. as of this point, i have a homescreen, etc. now, i need to get her into download mode, then flash twrp onto it.

should i try flashing the 'factoryreset.zip' that JWnSC has made for returning the Sprint phone back to stock? ive just gotten it downloaded to my PC, after a handful of unsuccessful shots.

i do not have my original twrp backup that i honestly did make, any longer. it was on a SD card that i replaced with a larger capacity one, and cannot find it any longer. For all intents and purposes, its as good as in a landfill.

can another one be substituted, or can parts of someone else's be substsituted?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] eigerzoom:
there is a full sprint.zip somewhere on the forum

i downloaded it

i can share it if you cant find it

but if you are in us998 currently then you should be good to proceed

skip the rctd and no-verity and you should have wifi after twrp and root with magisk 16.0

you can probably actually get us998 working by flashing the modem / modemst1 / modemst2 if the no-verity and rctd are the cause of the wifi breaking and not the modem directly

you didn't clarify if wifi is working again currently
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] elijah420:
no. wifi is *not* working currently.

---------- Post added at 01:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:03 AM ----------

well feck.

now, ive gotten even further screwed up. LGUP no longer recognizes my phone.

any time I flash a ROM, it says its flashed successfully, but when I attempt to boot the ROM, it just boots back to TWRP over and over.

FML.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] eigerzoom:
I got pretty deep down the rabbit hole, but never that far....

I can only do so much, I am hesitant to offer further advice since I have no experience with those issues.

I feel bad though man since you followed my advice in the first place to try and get us998 working without sprint.

I still feel it is possible and I myself want to try again to help further the development of this device.

Keep trying or wait for someone more knowledgable to reply.

You may need to use the no-verity and rctd zips on first boot after us998/twrp

I would say from this point you need to get the rom to boot at least once before applying the sprint .zip and may need to sideload the modem files in twrp to get past setup if wifi isn't working.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] elijah420:
frankly, im not sure that any of the zip files i have are going to do anything.

i have a feeling that something at a lower level than what the .zip files fox with is the culprit.

to be honest, i really want to point my finger right now but i am not sure it is correct, and further it just really aint going to do anything. im just disappointed. i shoulda stopped where i was earlier today and just left it be. its my own damned fault for doing it. <~~ thats the salient point here, i think.

anyway - its really ... really late here, and i have to have a working phone for multiple reasons that dont need airing on the internet. i need to shove off to walmart. if you come up with some ideas, or speak with someone who can shed some light, please let me know. ill leave my PC running, and be back to check it shortly before i go to sleep.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] JesseAaronSafir:
Hey so I have LS998 that I did Frankenstein and WTF and flashed back to LS998 and I don't understand what ROMs would work on the Sprint network. I'd like to try some AOSP-based ROMs but what features would I lose and could I still update PRL and Data Profile? And how would I be able to set the APNs correctly such that all Sprint data services and calling and texts will work correctly?

I've already mentioned this but I'm SUPER frustrated with the camera on this phone. I know it's "supposed" to be great but in my experience so far, it's absolute garbage compared to my 5-year-old Note 4 (which is now dead sadly). Whether I use the wide angle or regular camera and no matter what settings I use, most of my pictures are coming out blurry and lacking detail and with terrible distortion. I also can't get the cameras to focus on the areas I tap and that's pissing me off too. Didn't LG have some laser focus thing a gen or two back? The front camera pictures are also blurry and super grainy and just horrible. It's like I'm using a cell phone camera from 10 years ago. I'm really confused and frustrated and missing my Note 4 from when it was working. I've tried to see if there are any recent Samsung phones that I could use on Sprint and still modify and sadly it seems impossible.

I'm wondering if different software might get better results from the camera?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] elijah420:
I have no idea what i have done differently, but i now have an unrooted us998, with no 3g but finally wifi works.

I quit messing with it around 230 this morning and went to bed.

I figured i would just keep flashing a rom over and over until something different. After a few unsuccessful attempts, i tried download mode. This time, LGUP recognized my phone. I got US998 KDZ flashed successfully, and boots successfully.

So, now, i need to reflash twrp, then flash the sorint zip, the other requisites, then im leaving well enough alone.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] gazzacbr:
I reported this also a while back. Nobody found a reason as far as I remember. Something a bit screwy with LG? .

Exactly the same twrp on my old htc m8 works fine with correct date.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] elijah420:
some good news mostly for myself, i suppose. my phone is back up and running, it seems.

im not sure what I did differently this time, as opposed to the 25 or so times that I did it last night.

repeated flashes of a working ROM, would still end with TWRP asking me if I wanted to reboot because it didnt have an OS installed.

after multiple different combos of flashing via TWRP, flashing the 'factory reset' zip (which still wouldnt work. it would say successful flash, but then a reboot in twrp would just bring me right back to the TWRP splash screen) doing the button dance to turn my phone off long enough to shove the usb cable in to make it register download mode, and LGUPing the Nougat/Oreo KDZ, i finally got the sprint ROM, rtcd, no-verity, and Magisk successfully flashed, and the phone booted up. ... it sat for dang near 45 minutes on a generic screen i never saw before that said 'configuring phone'.

after that, it registered itself on the network, and has rebooted again.

this is where i drop out. I cant figure out why what worked several times successfully with no qualms decided to crap the bed and scared me enough to run out and purchase a cheap prepaid phone at 230 am.

I am left to assume something in the .zip files that gets flashed doesnt play nicely with Sprint configs, but i am not knowledgeable enough to say for sure.

until i have a known duplicatable route to return to a working baseline, im going to be super gun-shy about doing this over again.

i did have the foresight to get a log of one of the failed flash/boot attempts. maybe it caught something that can be of help to someone far more knowledgeable than i am.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Mr.RooT:
Hello,

I'm facing low SOT time on my Oneplus 3T. I did not look at SOT earlier, but since I saw screenshots and discussions about SOT on OP3T where almost everybody posted screens with at least 4-5h SOT (record is 12h I think) I take a look at mine SOT and I found, that I have max 2-3h SOT with no games. Just usual using (Chrome, some FB, reddit, etc..). My friend has OP5 and he is using his phone similarly than me and he gets 6-7h SOT (yeah I know, newer phone, but I was earlier talking about OP3T users with same SOT).. For almost a month I was trying to figure out why.. I've been monitoring wakelocks (not very helpful for SOT lol), cpu states via BBS - without success, changing roms with different versions of android - without success. Last week I tried different kind of "test". I launched Display tester app and select "Pixel defect test" and let my phone awake with 100% brightness and black screen for about an hour. Only 2% of battery dropped, so I figured out, that the main issue is screen and not app. Do you have any idea what else should I try? I'm really desperate right now.. I don't think, that battery is an issue.. Maybe bad firmware, rom?.. Currently I'm on NOS with MadysXtended kernel with some battery settings.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Immortalis:
No - if you run a truly black screen, then no pixel was actually being used at that time.

How old is your phone? Are you using any other battery-hogging apps beside Facebook?

Have you tried to do a clean flash?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Mr.RooT:
Yeah I know how amoled display works. I tried this "test" to verify, that screen is the issue and not some app, that is eating my battery while my phone is awake (I don't have high battery usage when screen is off). I'm occasionaly using Waze which is not battery friendly, but in those screenshots I did not used Waze. I tried literally everything including clean flash.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] BillGoss:
I've always found that FB is a large user of battery. So I've replaced FB and Messenger with Frost which is far more battery friendly.

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] redpoint73:
I notice on your screenshots, that there is no cell data connection. Do you have mobile data toggled off on purpose (such as to save battery) or is there poor data connection in your area?

I also see in the first screenshot, that there is no WiFi icon either. Which seems odd, but maybe just a fluke. I assume you have WiFi on, as you would have no data (since there is no mobile data, either).
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Mr.RooT:
Yeah I was prepared to go to bed when I was taking this screenshot (so Wifi and Mobile data turned off), but on usual working days I'm using mostly mobile data and on weekend wifi.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] redpoint73:
Keep in mind that cell network reception has an impact on battery life. How is the reception when using mobile data at work?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Mr.RooT:
Yeah, but my friend with OP5 uses his phone same way as I do (I don't believe, that one year of technology progress has this huge improvement). Do you mean how many data I use at work? If yes, something between 100-300MB per day. It mainly depends on app updates from google play.. I have now 50% battery and 1h 38m SOT, which is bad..
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] redpoint73:
No, I mean the actual signal strength. Poor cell reception can lead to significant battery drain.

Also, what screen brightness do you normally use?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Mr.RooT:
I have most of the time 4 bars of 4 on LTE+. I normally using 1/4 to 2/4 of screen brightness.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] RASTAVIPER:
If u r using mostly 4G, then be happy with 2-3 hours of SOT.

I have seen 6 hours of sot with both sims activated, but only with WI-FI, BT OFF and other root optimizations.

Unleashed by my rooted OP3T on 8.0
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] mobincbabu:
I used to have the same issue but now I've Omni ROM and it's got great battery life plus I've turned off about 30% of my pixels and most apps are greenified and some Lspeed tweaks are turned on and I'm also using the stock kernal. Give Omni ROM a try.

I'm on 4G and I still get about 5+ hours of sot on my usage.

Mostly chrome, Instagram, camera, Snapseed, Lightroom, etc
