[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Kevin1a:
Hi, long time XDA user here. I'm currently using a OnePlus X. I was considering springing for the new OnePlus 6, but I really shouldn't spend that much money right now. I saw that the V20s (a phone I was interested in previously) are very affordable now and I imaging for 200 bucks I can push my upgrade down the road for a bit, maybe until the OP6+ comes out. I've had an LG phone before and liked it , but it's been quite a few years.(Windows Mobile fellas, not even Windows Phone)

1. Is the V20 still viable, does it run well with current apps and networks?

2. How is the ROM support doing nowadays, and is the rooting process in general still possible from the firmware that currently ships on the phone? (I'm not sure what LGs stance on bootloader locking is)

3. Do custom roms make use of the secondary screen at all?

4. What are the phone's weakest points or biggest annoyances today? As in, what hasn't really stood the test of time?

Thanks for any info you can provide me.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] cnjax:
The v20 is basically end of life, bootloader unlocking and root, is dicey depending on the variant you buy, development slowed down to a trickle for some time, common issues include, poor cell reception, screen retention, bad mics, the v20 is still waiting for Oreo and the phone was released over two years ago and probably will never see another os upgrade after that. Currently second screen only works on stock based roms.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Kevin1a:
Thanks for the info. This is exactly what I was looking for.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] WhiteWidows:
I wouldn't say that with the active development of Lineage OS and Any Kernel.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Still_living714:
This sums it up. Seems the v20 is dead. Maybe oreo will bring more development but I doubt it since a lot of people have moved on
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] cnjax:
Oh yeah lineage that half baked os that's unofficial and you lose main features of the phone and have to flash constant updates or use work arounds to have basic functionality, yeah that's development right there.

LG V20 Still A good Phone

Well maybe you would like a different perspective. I fist laid eyes on the LG V20 in a Verizon store about a month ago but they would not sell it to me because it is not made anymore. So I just purchased an unlocked version from B&H in New York. My first attraction to this phone is the second screen which i think is extremely useful. Then i noticed that the LG V20 has a removable back panel so you can replace the battery. I have been looking for that ever since my NOTE 4 bricked two years ago. in the interim I had a Motorola Pure X which took a look for me to part with. SO that was all I needed to make the choice to buy it. now i do not have to carry a battery brick or make sure i am near a charger all day. i can carry a spare battery in my pocket. Next fringe benefit was finding out that this phone has 3 cameras, 1 front facing and 2 rear, one of them being a wide angle lens. But the love keeps getting better... add to that a removable SD card up to 256 GB or more when they come out with one, fingerprint censor, 64 GB phone and you have a pretty serious contender. I love this phone. I love it so much i but another one. Actually at the moment i have 3. Oh and yes, probably one of the only phones left that has both a 3.5 mm headphone jack and a type C charging port. The Audio and DAC units in this phone is better than most high end audio gear that you would find in a music studio, and i am a musician. I have heard of complaints about the camera quality, but to that i say if you want pictures with that kind of quality, go out and buy a Nikon! Also i have heard that manufactures are moving away form 3.5 mm jacks and removable batteries because they want to make the phones more water proof. Bull Hockey!! Are people so obsessed with phones that they cannot leave the thing alone for a 10 minute swim. The real reason is because the manufacturer doesn't want you keeping a phone more than 2 years so they make the batteries last only that long and if you cannot replace the battery, you need a new phone. (or you can go the route of trying to put a new battery in your phone and butcher it to death).

Long story to say do not count the LG V20 out yet. it is a superb phone, has many features that a lot of other phones just do not have. I am very pleased with both of mine and i love the second screen.

The only bad experience i have had is that in order to get Verizon's Visual Voice mail, i had to purchase a Verizon version, and the front camera crapped out after a week. It was supposed to be new, but the box looks like it has been ridden around the world, so i doubt it was new. SO i am sending that back but still have both of my unlocked US996's.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Billy Madison:
Like, how is December 2016 is more that 2 years ago? Kid, are you sane? More so, Shap 820 even didn't existed more than 2 years ago, it is still actual chip not legacy like some 810, and 835 is pretty much == 820 rebranded and repainted

---------- Post added at 06:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:09 PM ----------

Yes, because it's powered by SD820, not Snap 430 or 600 or something

The weakest point is battery somewhat degraded over time, I could have like 7hrs SOT on Wifi on the start but now after cold winters it shows its age and gives me around 4.5...5 SOT on same router. but battery is exchangeable easily and I hope to buy more fresh one

Some people claim they got screen retention, it's more visible the more southern country you live and more brighter you must set you screen to
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] rivethead23:
I still am keeping it as a backup phone but I am using a different DD. I did take it on a trip though with the 10800 ma battery I have for it. I'm running a stock 918H and it still fairly fast. The SD card and headphone jack are nice too. Still a good buy at $150 or so
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] txenglan:
I love the second screen and the DAC but being forced to run the stock ROM is a PITA as it's very sluggish. I have a Mi A1 that runs circles around the V20 in terms of performance, which is sad. Meanwhile, if you try to solve the lag, running Lineage OS defeats the purpose and outweighs the benefits of the phone as you won't have the DAC, second screen nor full camera functionality.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
Absolutely it is worth it. You can pick up a V30 with a slightly faster processor, and slightly better camera (and that is debatable) for $250. However, you will lose the replaceable battery, the second screen, the IR blaster.

The people that say they are having performance problems have hardware issues. Even stock non-rooted, runs plenty fast, but if you use Alpha ROM, and debloat all the carrier bullsh** then it runs like a beast.

-- Brian
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] txenglan:
I don't have hardware issues. The stock ROM (de-bloated or not) is well known to be sluggish. As I stated in my post, the phone is completely different if running Lineage at the cost of the unique functionality. Aside from many people complaining of the performance under stock as being sluggish, this guy describes it perfectly:

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
So I have a slow phone? Holy crap! I had no idea!

Stop spreading FUD, and learn how to do things like disable rctd, ccmd, logging, CPU throttling...

-- Brian
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] txenglan:
Your sarcasm isn't appreciated and I'm not spreading fud - this is fact. I've done lots of tweaking and no amount of it will fix what LG did to the stock ROM. You're acting as if I'm the only person who has pointed out the shortcomings of the V20. The fact is, it is a fantastic phone with bad execution of the OS by LG. To be clear, I still use mine but it will soon be retired to secondary usage as my Mi A1 is way better as a DD.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
No, I am sure there are plenty of others out there complaining as well -- that also don't know the first thing about how to get the most out of their phone.

Is the V20 the end-all / be-all? Nope, but it is the last great flagship phone that was released. Everything since is just a waste of money.

-- Brian
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] ecarlson:
We just bought our T-mobile V20's this year. Great phones for about $150 in excellent used (hard to tell they were used) condition. Great photos and DAC, among other things. We couldn't find anything comparable for that price, new or used.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] hordarian:
Mine is still great. Stock, unrooted, H990DS with a zerolemon 10000mAh extended battery. The image retention doesn't bother me - it's not permanent. I use the widescreen camera a lot, and charge the device once every 3-4 days. The IR transmitter sees plenty of use too, as does the DAC and the dual SIM.

There's nothing else that fits my needs. Dreading when it dies.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] stewie-droid:
I just got me V20 H918 in excellent condition with 3 batteries and 4 cases for $185 shipped. I've come from G4 which started to have GPS lock issues, sometimes. My LG G3 GPS is no longer working at all. lol. Not sure what's up with that. Was this fixed in v20 or is this just tear and wear on GPS chip or something?

My main attraction point is camera manual controls and i mean white balance K numbers and mic for loud concert recording as well as removable battery and i prefer bigger screens and 5.7 upgrade from 5.5 on G4 is welcomed too. Oh and DAC was other feature that attracted me as well. What's weird that G4 concert recording was terrible but G3 was fantastic. Never distorted. Hoping V20 has great mic like G3 did. Let me know your thoughts.

I will NOT buy a phone if it doesn't have removable battery as i refuse to spend $800 on phone every few years and be forced by manufacturers due to profit.

Don't know any other manufacturer that lets you do white balance in K values. I wish aperture would be f=1.6 or f1.5 but had no complains with 1.8 on G4. Kinda sucks wide angle is f2.4, as it should be 1.8 or lower. It seems ppl use that camera more often. I guess night shots in standard angle is to use.

Thought about pixel but don't have manual control like LG does. If you guys have any suggestions on used phone <$250 that blows V20 out of water please let me know. I use to be Samsung Galaxy lover but since LG introduced manual controls i switched. There was pro photographer article on G4 camera so ppl that think iphone or samsung has better camera u should read that article. But let me know if there is something better.

P.S

In process of rooting it as i need it for kernel auditor for screen colors profiles (Vomer DeepRich) and kernel i/o scheduler control and kin screen and lux too, among few more other apps. Came with 10u so downgraded to 10p, bootloader unlocked already. Next will be laf exploid root method.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] txenglan:
I just reflashed the excellent Alpha ROM on my V20 and managed to rid myself of a significant portion of the sluggishness I mentioned by getting rid of Magisk. I'm not sure what was going on but Magisk was definitely slowing everything down on my V20. Recommend if you buy this phone to stay away from Magisk or at least keep this is mind if you intend to root.

I dont know if HMD read this or read other n5 user complain, but pls dont violate GPULv2 license.

Hi,

I'm currently building a Raspberry Pi (3) Android Auto project for my 55 year old Land Rover. I'm using Openauto installed on Raspbian (rather than using Crankshaft) so I can also add reversing cameras, ultrasonic sensors and so on, more easily.

Anyway, I the system so far:

RPi 3b running Raspbian Stretch

7" Touchscreen

USB soundcard with mic input.

It took a while but I finally configured the audio and it's working, at least Google Assistant and I think Navigation prompts (but it's difficult to assess that, the system isn't installed yet so it isn't going anywhere). The problem I am having is I can't get music at all. The music apps work, and I can use BBC iPlayer Radio no problem. I just can't get either Google Play Music or Pulsar working with locally stored files - There isn't any sound output at all. Mike input works, I tested the soundcard in Raspbian and it outputs audio now (after finding a guide and editing configs, it didn't work at first out of the box)

I'm not an expert on Linux or Android, I'm following guides so consider me a beginner if you would please! Also, if this has been covered before, I do apologise for bringing it up again, any and all help is very much appreciated. I also apologise if it is forum etiquette to introduce oneself before asking questions, I don't mean to be rude.

And here I was thinking the most difficult step would be figuring out how to mount/fit everything into the old bus...

Many thanks,

Hey, I'm a Y6 II user and I come to know that I can use almost all ROM made for P8Lite. So I downloaded Roms and flashed them. But I see that I have to use a LTE sim card for use Nougat ROM. I used three Roms already. RR,AEX and DOTOS. AEX didn't mentioned that it needs a LTE sim card but still I can't use a 3G sim. Though I have a 4G sim but my main sim card isn't 4G enabled. Hope someone will help me get out of that.

Every p8 lite 2015 custom ROM requires 4G sim card. I don't know why, I'm not a developer. If you want to use 3G sim card, then unfortunately you'll have to stick with EMUI.
