[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] SubwayChamp:
No, I´m very prideful for this device, it´s not a fake at all, the great difference is only the two bands enabled in the global (really) version but I didn´t need this.

There is something that I noted like a difference within miui roms and any aosp based rom, the signal in aosp roms is slightly better than in miui roms. A simple way to see the strength is going to Settings/about phone/status/sim status you will see a range normally between (in my experience);

- In aosp based roms it´s -83 to -91

- In miui or miui based roms it´s -91 to -97

When the level is more (in a negative scale) it´s mean better signal. That´s about cellullar signal not specifically the uploading/downloading of data, for this there should be an application in Play Store also some custom tweaked roms can improve this.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] seedaripper:
Ok so i'm getting 83dBm 57 asu? don't you mean when the level is 'less' in a negative scale i.e the lower the better?

Yes, i'm pleased by the phone, just a bit worried about future updates, to be honest (with regards to it being a foreign ROM on a Chinese phone) i don't use my data much (only when travelling abroad or journeys within the UK) otherwise i leech from wifi...looking forward to MIUI 10 (and fingers crossed an Oreo update in its wake)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] SubwayChamp:
No, definitely you don´t have nothing to worry about, remember that really all R5+ are chinese, I just referred to a chinese version to indicate how it´s recogniced the first version but Xiaomi considers all these versions like upgradable.

You have an excellent signal strength, you forgot the symbol (-) and it´s correct the stated before, in a positive scale a superior number is more and in a negative scale an inferior number is in the same way by the logic of the opposites; more.

Do you mean charging or any plugin of USB?

Assuming you mean charging, are you wall charging or computer charging?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] kudos1uk:
That rules out some of the modes the PC can trigger.

Is your phone stock, are there any modifications (now or in the past)?

You will need to identify what wakelock is preventing deep sleep, install wakelock detector to see what the cause is.

WOW man!

I just took a look through your recent posts, with what you have been doing to your phone it's no wonder you are getting these issues!

You have had this problem for ages and a string of threads with people trying to help you, I don't understand why you start a new thread without disclosing your history, you even lost your imei and hosts of other problems with bad flashing.

By not disclosing what happened in the past your forcing people to start over at the beginning which is a waste of everyone's time!

You should have set out in the first post the history and what you have tried and done so far, this at least avoids duplication.

This just started yesterday. I'll be listening via Bluetooth and the volume will suddenly drop in volume and then stop.

I've tried two Bluetooth devices and two different headphones.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dtaylorr:
So I spent hours messing with different settings. Nothing seems to have helped. I tried different programs to play music, I tried three different headsets. All would do the same thing. At random points, it would just stop playing.

I broke down and did a hard reset to no avail. I started thinking I would have to get a new phone :( In desperation I started looking for odd things. I removed the screen protector and somehow this seems to have helped. I just played an hour and a half worth of podcast with no interruptions :)

[OnePlus 6 Accessories] UniX1rm:
I two different skins for my new OnePlus 6 mirror black variant. I was able to turn the phone to white. I have previously tried the carbon black and the wood for my galaxy s9. This time I decided to try the white skin.

If you are familiar with phantom skins, the provide different kind of skins like dbrand, but comes with extras such as the screen protector, cleaning wipe, the liquid solution and a much better overall packing.

The installation video is on their youtube channel. The process is straight forward.

I went with the metallic white, which looks great. The grip is definitely better than the glass back. If you want more grip, go with the carbon fiber.

Here are some of my photos

If your SIM is not that old try resetting the network. If your SIM is old (over a year) then maybe try a new one.

I also have the Taiwan version (V10m-TWN-XX) and I got the notification for update on the 15th of June and tried to download it two times. In both cases the download was extremely slow and crashed in both cases at 32% with "server connection issues".

Since when i try to search for a new version and download again it tells me I am already using the latest version....

Is anyone else in the same situation? I tried already to update with LG Bridge and the result is the same. The LG support was not helpful at all and the Taiwan support is only in Chinese..

[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] cabal06ba:
Double-posting but since nobody seems to care about 6 different parallel threads on H870DS oreo-upgrade being opened and continued, I'll play along:

I've lost patience now, too and flashed TWN FW manually (the clean way with factory reset before and after oreo upgrade). Phone is used in Germany.

First bug found so far: 5Ghz WLAN appeared in the initial setup but soon after didn't get discovered anymore. Now I hope that resetting the network settings will fix the issue.

Apart from that, the first impression is flawless and smooth. I've been used to oreo on my Xperia XZ (for months already!), though.

[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] zefie:
In westwood24 style, I decided to create a flashable zip for us. We do not have a kdz yet, so westwood24 is unable to create the zip yet, as he no longer owns the device.

However, since I do, I decided to do system dumps of the updated images, and provide them to you in a flashable format, in his fashion.

I have tested this on my own device (US997v17a KDZ -> TWRP -> This ZIP)

What this means is that you can flash this like you would his zips, its not an upgrade, its a full ROM, with bootloader and everything.

It is the closest we are going to get to a KDZ, until we actually get one.

The boot.img is prepatched to remove rtcd, and disable forceencrypt, and also disables LG anti-custom-recovery script, so that you can keep TWRP, and mount your data in it.

This is NOT Melina kernel, this is stock kernel with the above patches applied only. If you would like Melina kernel, you will have to install it afterwards (but remember to reboot recovery first, see note in TWRP thread about writing boot more than once in a session)

Download [ My Server | Mega ]

For those who want 100% stock, here is an unpatched boot.img. Flash it in TWRP, or extract it and flash in fastboot.

But be aware what this means for /data and TWRP.

PAQ (Probably [going to be] Asked Questions):

Q: Can I flash this over v17a without wiping data?

A: In theory, yes. Untested. Be sure to wipe Dalvik Cache.

Q: Can I flash this over v16a or eariler without wiping data?

A: Probably not. Try it? Be sure to wipe Dalvik Cache.

Q: Can I flash this over (Fulmics/Lineage/RR/etc) without wiping data?

A: No.

Q: Does this include the new Oreo bootloader?

A: Yes.

Q: What does "forceencrypt" mean?

A: It means every time you boot, if you tried to format /data in recovery and unencrypted it, it gets re-encrypted. Disabling this allows you to have an unencrypted /data so that you can continue to use TWRP without losing /data.

Q: I can't sideload this zip, but I can sideload westwood24's. What gives?

A: No idea and I wish I knew. Copy it to your SDCard or Internal Data for now.

Q: I'm stuck at the bootloader. Did I brick?

A: No. First boot will take a while at the bootloader. Please give it up to 15 minutes.

Q: LG G6 ThinQ?

A: https://www.xda-developers.com/lg-g6-thinq-rebranding/

Q: I cannot mount data in TWRP. What can I do?

A: You need to use Melina TWRP rel_o1 or newer.

Special thanks go out to westwood24.

If my releases help you, please leave a thanks. If you are able, please consider a tip (check the small link in my sig).

[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] billyx1:
Installing this tried to install the oreo system, but failed because of encryption. But some parts already has been changed. Booting was hanging on LG logo.

So I tried to install back my old version. Did also replace some parts, but after booting it told me the encryption key was correct but some data modified. The only possibility was to wipe everything :(
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] zefie:
Downgrading from LG Oreo encryption to LG Nougat encryption will force you to wipe data.

If you don't care about encryption, wipe data in TWRP to decrypt, then reboot recovery, then install this zip.

If you do want encryption, flash this zip, reboot recovery, flash the unmodified boot, reboot system (will wipe root and twrp)
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] cory733:
So I'm assuming Encryption works the same way on Oreo as it does on Nougat?

On Nougat, after the bootloader is unlocked (or twrp flashed or one of these steps), the option to encrypt is gone from the Fingerprints and Security settings menu. Only the "Encrypt SD Card" option remains.

So this means no chance for encryption on Oreo with root + twrp?
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] zefie:
Encryption option remains. But no, encrypting will break /data in TWRP. Root may work if you root before you encrypt.

We cannot decrypt LG's data with TWRP yet.
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] shaneg79:
Unfortunately since the US Cellular version can't be rooted because the bootloader isn't able to be unlocked we can't use this method we would have to wait until someone is able to create a kdz to flash. :(

Currently rooted using mTWRP Nougat on US997. Is the following the correct order to use this to move to O?

Boot to mTWRP

Nandroid Backup

Wipe System, Cache, Dalvik (and possibly Data if I am not to lazy .......realizing not wiping data could be problematic)

Flash this zip

Flash Oreo mTWRP

Manually reboot to mTWRP (without needing to format data)

OK, got it to shut down with "power, volume down" we'll see what's next.

Ok ver 2.....that just continued the boot loop.

Ok Ver 3......got to recovery, wiped system.....reflashing now

OK ver 4..........tried Magisk v16.4 and it booted!

Is anyone having issues with wireless charging? I dirty flashed (only wiped dalvik after) and now it keeps disconnecting and reconnecting from my TYLT Vu charger (every few seconds)
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] zefie:
As with most releases, please try wiping data completely.

I thought that Stock to Stock update would work, but also forgot that it does some post-install stuff in their own recovery (which this does not). Whatever it is doing during post-install may fix the compatibility issues with existing data during stock upgrades. This stage, that we are skipping, is probably doing important nougat-to-oreo changes.
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] dwasifar:
Here's my experience.

Flashed Oreo mTWRP, rebooted to recovery, wiped system/data/cache, flashed ROM, rebooted to recovery, flashed Magisk, rebooted to system, everything good. Phone stable.

Did you ever hear of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it?" I should have quit while I was ahead.

I flashed the V30 camera, then Melina kernel. Bootloops.

Rebooted to recovery and reflashed Magisk. This cured the bootloop but the V30 camera wouldn't stay running. So, to get the stock camera back: Dirty flash ROM again, reboot to recovery, flash Melina kernel, reboot to recovery, flash Magisk, boot to system. Initially things seem okay, but then it turns out I don't have the stock camera at all now. Instead I have an app called "Video recording and Cheese shutter are unavailable by server policy." And Google Pay isn't working right, and Magisk manager is crashing.

So okay. Wipe cache and dalvik, dirty flash ROM again, reboot to recovery, flash Magisk, reboot to system.

Magisk manager works, Google Pay seems to work, still no camera, still have the weird app instead.

So I guess I should have left well enough alone. Looks like I'll have to do another clean flash if I want everything back the way it was in the first place. That will have to wait for a while. In the meantime I'm using Open Camera.
