If you had said THAT instead of "Dude grow up" at first, it would've been a little nicer, don't you think?? Do you think I don't have enough on my plate already, after bleeding out all kinds of money for a damn phone & service that I can't even use, without having to put up with wisecrack remarks??

Yes, I DO expect T-Mobile to stand behind their products.

I respect the hell out of calling shots as you see them, but I question HOW they're seen. Throw me a bone, will you??

SPRINT!!!

you know even if i had 10 phones break on me, through running normal software or even modified i would like the company to replace, even if it was my fault... thats what u pay insurance for and thats what makes great customer service. Think about it... how many people know more about the phones then someone that modifies them? not your average user, i referred about 15 people just because sprint is so good with me breaking my phone anyway i did( twice but w/e), not just a new phone but every little thing(a new box, battery, phone, 2x stylus, etc...). no need to grow up its a normal thing to worm someone about a HORRIBLE service provider, i've had sprint for a couple months no complaints, well maybe my bill once but i just shot them an email about my bill being $300, next day they gave me an extra $500. if u switch to sprint get the sero account and you may want to do it fast because no one knows how much longer that type of plan is going to be available....

:D
[HTC Excalibur] pudgedaddy:
Yea but the key element of your situation that makes it different from the person that made this thread is that you have INSURANCE! things are a whole heckofalot different when you have insurance. When you don't, you stand a chance at ending up like this poor guy! The only thing about insurance i absolutely despise is you always get a reburb.
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
I have to disagree...If i had a company and sold you a phone. If you modify the rom in any way, warranty is void.

I think even with insurance it gets voided. (I may be wrong)
[HTC Excalibur] pudgedaddy:
No because most insurance plans cover damage ... which cover both physical and software.firmware damage.....
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
original and modified firmware?
[HTC Excalibur] pudgedaddy:
Yes! Heck even if it didnt and the insurance covered only physical damage. I'd beat the heck out of the phone so it wouldnt turn on to find out which firmware or ROM was installed. I mean if you think about it , the phone companies make a buttload of money gettin $5 ( or more) a month for monthly insurance charges,,,, then the customer still has to fork out a deductible when they use the insurance. So trust me, I'd love to offer insurance. Lastly most insurance policies limit the nunber of exchanges to 2 or 3 per year. so it would insure that they couldn't abuse the insurance plan
[HTC Excalibur] johnnylavah:
it sucks about the issues you are experiencing, but do you think this is the right forum (no pun intended) for this issue? in my opinion, you will have better luck discussing this issue with mid - senior level management at T-Mobile USA; not with a bunch of people looking to modify their mobile devices.
[HTC Excalibur] pudgedaddy:
I agree. The mods should close this thread
[HTC Excalibur] SpringfieldXD45C:
I have no other place to vent, and to be honest, I was hoping to get a former T-mobile employee (or someone) who would send me a PM or leave a post with a bit of a tip in it.

If nothing else, I'm outraged and I need to vent (something wrong with that??) It's only natural.

By the way, this has nothing to do with insurance... this is still warranty!! And how do you figure flashing the ROM voids the warranty?? It changes no physical part of the phone... and as long as you can flash the factory ROM back onto it, (thus making the phone still useable) what harm was done?

I see nothing in the warranty about flashing the ROM as being grounds for voiding.
[HTC Excalibur] johnnylavah:
there are a lot of tmobile employees that hang around the T-Mobile Forum on HowardForums...you might have better luck there...

t-mobile customer service does sux bunghole, but its cheap so i keep it.
[HTC Excalibur] Profezza:
Tmo is not just the only cell provider to get the JD Power 5 Star 7 times in customer satisfaction, but the only company in any industry they track to get that. I picked them for the price, and the GSM technology. I ask a lot of them, and they have yet to fail me. Although one of my many calls did lead to a retarded op, he was the exception, not the rule. I've had plenty of carriers, but every other one was smug and acted like they were doing me a favor by taking my money, while giving me usually incorrect assistance.

Sorry if I sound like a toadie, I'm just a geek that isnt easily impressed... actually impressed so far.
[HTC Excalibur] SpringfieldXD45C:
You don't sound like a toadie at all... All of my friends say the same thing about Tmo, which is why I went to them. But the fact is, I'm now 6 months in and almost half a dozen phones, and I've STILL got problems.

I'm sure (seriously sure, no sarcasm) that their customer support is great when you don't have serious problems with your phone like I do. But the fact remains that they're not doing a damn thing to REALLY fix the problem... they're just sending me refurbed phones with even more problems.

Here's another gripe I have... When you qualify for a multiple exchange.. in other words, when you have so many problems with a particular model that you qualify for an alternate model... why is the "comparable" model to the Wing the Dash?? Why is that the ONLY option? What about a Blackberry? What about an MDA? The Dash is significantly cheaper than the Wing.

Shouldn't alternate model be of equal or greater value? It's not like the thing works fine and I just woke up one morning and decided I didn't like it anymore... the thing is a piece of junk, and it's now the 4th piece of junk in a row. As far as I'm concerned, I'm not getting what I paid for. They're not holding up their end of the deal. They're advertising a phone that does A, B, and C... yet it doesn't do A or B. So they send you a new one that does A, but not B or C.

I mean, am I the ONLY person that sees this as totally unfair?? They should at least give me options here. I'm not being a crybaby about this at all: This is about MONEY. Not JD Power awards, not what kind of service YOU get, but what kind of service I get. I'm not paying your bills, so I really don't give a damn what kind of service you get (no offense). I'm holding up my end of the deal here, I pay my bill on time every month, religiously... for service I can't even use. I think it's disgusting.

For the entire month of February, I didn't use so much as 1 minute of internet time, even though I'm paying $20.00/month for unlimited usage. Why? Because the 2 wings that I had for the month of February didn't like the internet. When I asked them to credit my account for that $20.00, they refused. Am I the only one that sees a problem with this??

It seems to me like the rest of this board (well, MOST of it) has a "Suck it up, pal" attitude towards this, simply because YOU don't have any problems with them. Ever think that maybe someday you MIGHT have a problem? Better yet, ever think that there are other people here who have similar problems and are glad to finally have someone to relate to?

I'll concur that we are most definitely the exception to the rule, but that doesn't give them the right to screw us.
[HTC Excalibur] superminipoo:
i be pissed too if they did that to me also springfield. T-Mobile does suck at serious problems like that. they're trying to save money just like the rest of us. it just sux it had to happened to u tho. sorry ur having bad experiences with ur dash, if only u can get a brand spanking new 1 that works right. but T-Mobile is a cheap skate, so am i.....

wing sux dude, dont get it. try to get a new dash over wing. oh ya u cant. T-Mobile sux. hey just keep nagging them about it to get u a new 1 and not refurb. oh ya u tryed that....well...keep nagging them.
[HTC Excalibur] SpringfieldXD45C:
Well, I am getting stuck with another Dash, it should be arriving today. By the way, that was an awesome post. It was well thought out and a lot of work went into it.

Therefore, I feel confident in asking you this: Is there a step-by-step procedure for modding these things? Because it feels like I'm "missing" something. I follow all instructions, but something always seems to go kaput.
[HTC Excalibur] Profezza:
Thank you, I hope it helped! I thought it was dreadfully long. I hope it entertains you well, I will love mine unconditionally until the second I can afford an Xperia1 ;)

There are lots of ways to mod them, and the trickiest, but most rewarding is flashing it with a newer, spiffier ROM. Well, installing Opera is probably more rewarding, but not as interesting.

But if you are going to do a ROM flash expect something to go wrong, and try to familiarize yourself with all the mistakes everyone else has made, so you can catch and correct early on. Most mistakes are listed over and over on the forum. Take out your SD card. Turn off ANY auto-locker you've installed. Have a full charge. Those are the simplest ones to overlook. Don't try and do it in a hurry, or from an unstable PC.

Expect to have to soft-reset a few times, and after anytime you mod anything with graphics in the OS screens. :(

There is a backup program, Sprite backup, that will make an image of your OS and then restore all or part of it, that can be bought or, uh...probably... found... I have found it more worth my while to install the apps again manually, but it can be used to do a limited retrieval, like SMS threads and who-gets-what-ringtone.

I just found this guy's video of the flashing process in another thread. The write up is solid, too, with really good links. Since that video was filmed, however, Kavana and others have really packaged all the applications to flash with (the lockers, unlockers, and other fiddly bits) along with a 90% automatic batch file and zipped it all together. Any current ROM from him or Rick comes like this. If it doesnt auto-execute, just ignore the applications themselves and look for the .bat in thier folder. There is one part where you are supposed to press a button at a certain time on the phone, but it is a bit forgiving it seems, and if I mess up, I just press it again.

Keep in mind, after a flashing, there will be lots of menu tweaks, so all the same things (and more) will be there, but not in exactly the same places. This is more from the version tweaks of Windows Mobile than the cookers. And you will have to add/adjust the proxy, data, MMS and a zillion other settings. I haven't seen an auto-config for TMo yet that gets it quite right. TMo's official instructions are in my sig.

I have a Magicsee n4 s905x Android TV box, but it has no Bluetooth. Is there a USB Bluetooth dongle I can add that will work?

ALSO if it does work, is it possible to use two Bluetooth devices at the same time, e.g. a Bluetooth game controller and a Bluetooth remote at the same time.

Any recommendations for a USB hub as well?

After taking the recent update : Android 7(BLN-L22C675B365)

Firstly i have worked with sim before,the phone is some 11 months year old.

The problem is the phone just won't find the sim card (which ever sim i may use) and the phone also says that "No service" in the upper left corner Emergency calls Only. the sim card is fine, and the subscription is intact, it neither banned or locked or even unpaid.

I have been facing these issues since 4 weeks. Earlier i thought there is a issue with sim card. But when other sim owner swapped my sim in his mobile. It worked super fine with proper network and data usage.

So today i decided to update magisk to its latest versio, it all whet well,i did within android. later on in the day i decided to reboot myphone, and to my surprise it got stuck o thelgv30 thinq scree, after decide 10m was enough i rebooted and the it was stuck in bootloop, so i decided to restore my nanddroid , after it was done i hit reboot to system, and now it will only noot to fastootmode,, its as if there is nothing flashed to boot or system. any help will greatly appreciated.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
EDIT: VERY OLD POST; WE CAN NOW USE NEWER MAGISK

____________

By "latest" you mean Magisk beta? You can only use stable 16.0 Magisk. Stated in the

bootloader unlock/TWRP/root instructions

that beta Magisk will mess up your phone.

You may need to Master Reset (wipe everything), reflash TWRP, etc. Good luck.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] siulmagic:
yea that what i did fml. what do i do reflash the oreo kdz?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Probably. First Master Reset to clear everything. SEE if that works.

Post 101 of the Frankenstein thread.

If that doesn't work, then go into download mode manually, then open dev patched LGUP and reflash Oreo KDZ.

Then use ADB to reinstall TWRP, and go from there. Your bootloader will already be unlocked so you'll continue to get the "scary" bootloader unlock warning. But you'll otherwise be following the instruction of the bootloader unlock thread, except for the bootloader unlock part.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] siulmagic:

This just happened to me today. It was either from the newest Magisk (v22) or from the newest YouTube Vanced. Those were the only things that changed recently on my phone. Rebooted today and it will only go to Fastboot mode and that's it.

Master Reset will get me into TWRP, but I think my USB port on the phone is damaged, it will charge but neither my Windows nor Linux PCs will recognize that it's plugged in. So it's like only USB charging works but not USB data. So I think I'm screwed, idk if it's fixable. Sad day.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] aumua123:
This also happened to me while trying to update to Magisk 22. First I had an error with Magisk in a restart cycle, then when I tried to update manually from the APK I got stuck in a fastboot loop with no ADB access. I was able to boot to TWRP from fastboot on my PC, then re-flash the Pie image. My settings were all lost, but I did get my phone back at least. BEWARE of Magisk 22, or at least until it's fixed for the V30!

edit: I found that I COULD install Magisk 22.0.zip while following these instructions for restoring my phone:

https://xdaforums.com/t/wtf-lg-v30-...r-instructions.3790500/page-165#post-79972584

after a few extra prompts from the Magisk app, v22 now works.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Osprey00:
I've had no issues using Magisk v22 with an LOS 17.1 (Android 10) based ROM. It could just be that there's a problem with it on either LG stock or Pie ROMs.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] mon0theist:
UPDATE

* Variant: US998 US Cellular/Carrier Unlocked

* ROM: Rooted Stock Pie (US99830b)

* Magisk: v21.4

So it seems the issue is not that it "soft bricks", but something about the new installation process of Magisk v22 goes wrong with the /boot partition, causing the phone to only be able to boot into Fastboot mode.

After getting my phone fully recovered and restored from the last failed attempt (and making a new TWRP backup), I attempted the v22 update again. First Magisk attempted to download and install the new v22 app, and then a popup notification said "additional setup is required for your device, press OK to reboot". So I hit okay, and that's when once again I got stuck in Fastboot with no other options.

If you have a TWRP/nandroid backup, you can easily fix this by performing the Master Reset process in order to boot into TWRP, and then just Restoring the /boot partition from your TWRP backup. This will get you back to Magisk v21.4 where you were before, which is where I'm currently at.

At this time, unless Magisk releases a TWRP-flashable .zip for v22, or unless there's a way to update to v22 via Fastboot, it doesn't look like updating to v22 will be possible, at least for the Stock Pie ROM.

I've seen on both reddit and XDA that several people are saying they updated to v22 without issue, but it's unclear if they were on Stock or Custom ROM. My guess would be that Custom ROMs are probably working fine and it's the Stock ROM that's having the issue.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] aumua123:
I simply renamed the available .apk to .zip and it flashed in TWRP.

edit: the ROM I'm using is from this thread, which says it is 99% stock, whatever that means.
