[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Rehvix:
I think the problem you had while flashing the custom ROMs was the Data partition was in some format other than EXT2 and EXT4, what TWRP uses to recognize and write to the partition. A quick reformat under advanced wipe should've fixed the issue. Flashing the bootloader brings an other issue, since it won't allow for the flashing of anything under a set parameter.

I would suggest to try flashing the newest firmware for your device variant, without the BL tab. If that doesn't work, download the newest FW for your device, but instead of your region get BTU (I'm just assuming that isn't what you have). Again, load up AP, CP, CSC, but not BL.

If your ok with getting from SamMobile, here's a link to the BTU I suggest you to try. If not, look for the latest stock firmware for SM-G950F United Kingdom BTU.

I had a similar issue with my s7 edge not too long ago (last week), and this is how I resolved it. Please let me know if that did the trick!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] elmemyself:
Hi guys,

I'm experiencing some odd issues getting bluetooth to work on my BMW Series 5, 2011. I've already used multiple devices over time, including most iPhones, Xiaomi, Pixel 2XL, etc, without any issues. My Note 9 is able to find my car's bluetooth device and apparently connects just fine, however, after requesting a couple of permissions it seems to struggle to maintain connection and then seems to keep frequently connecting/disconnecting.

I've already tried using a different "AVRCP Version" under Developer options, but it doesn't seem to make any difference. This is my first Samsung device, are there any frequent issues I may not be familiar with?

SM-N960F - Exynos

No root - up to date software

Cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] mmuntean2:
Try to remove previously paired devices from your car, including this one and repair it.

You should leave the BT dev settings on their default as the phone is choosing the best based on the car's system.

Try also to go to Location's settings, improve location and disable always scanning of BT and Wifi.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] elmemyself:
Thank you, but unfortunately it didn't help. I even though it was due to being BT 5.0, but the Pixel 2 XL which I used before also had BT 5.0 and worked flawlessly. So weird :(

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] onesky:
Hello i just got my new Mi 8 with Global rom Android 8.1 and Miui 9.6.3 and when i download app from Google Store they stuck/freeze after some mega bytes downloaded or even at 100%.

If i force close google play and restart it they resume the downloading and eventually finish. Anyway sometime it doesn't happen and apps are downloaded fine. I tested the connection downloading a large file over the browser and it's working fine, no interruptions.

I can't understand what is wrong.

- I cleaned google play cache and data files

- I logged out and loggged in to my google account

- i even factory reset the phone

but i can't solve this problem!

Maybe it is a problem that the bootloader unlocked doesn't let google play to give the certification of the phone?

Play Store version: 11.2.14-all [0][PR]207207134 Device not certified
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] onesky:
well i finally SOLVED this issue, it was getting me crazy especially for the fact that when i am at work everything was working fine, and everytime i went home, bang! got the stuck issue!

So after many testing, a lot of reading i ended up that the problem was the bluetooth. If i turn off the bluetooth and restart the device no problem with google play. But after starting the bluetooth, downloading or installing apps freezes on google play store.

I tried to turn off just a bluetooth receiver i have at home (a Logitech Bluetooth Audio Receiver ) and again no problem to install any app. The bluetooth is working fine with other receiver (bluetooth speaker, phone, radio ecc.), so there is something bad just between the Mi8 and the Logitech receiver (even if they are not paired or connected) that makes the phone crazy when installing apps.

Hope this solution is helpful to anyone.

p.s.

this is the Logitech receiver i am talking about

Hello everyone. I have just found a new device in shop near me (Istanbul/Turkey) and I really liked the design and I am thinking of buying it.

I had an oppo device long time ago, while the hardware was nice, the rom was awful and I couldn't change it to English.

Is this still the case with the Find X? Is there a global rom? can it be flashed? I searched everywhere but I couldn't find the answer

Thanks.

Language not an issue. We are looking for a way to flash Global ROM, but havent found tool yet to do so. Other than that, great device with a few hiccups. Personally, really enjoying how responsive the device is, let alone the looks of it. Really snappy compared to Galaxy S9+, etc.

Can you please guide me how to manually update my AT&T v20 to be stock not rooted oreo, my h910 is stock never touched, not rooted of version h91010m which can't get updates as it is unlocked and am not in US.

All i want is just to update it manually to the stock oreo software.

Thanks a lot
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] TheIronMaiden:
https://xdaforums.com/v20/how-to/root-h910-v10m-t3664500

Use this to root.

Instead of flashing the 10v att image like the last step suggests, use the 20g Oreo image instead

H910 Oreo 20g: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262903991071

Thank [MENTION=2895182]clsA[/MENTION] for the Oreo link
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] seikobasha:
Thank you

Thanks a lot for the clarification...

i have read more, i believe this rom will let me stock oreo so am worried i can't update the phone again in case of future updates.

is there a way to update in future? Also is there a way to change the software from h910 to h915 so that i can recieve ota updates normally in future?and is it safe as am afraid to loose signal or brick phone etc...

Thanks a lot in advance.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] TheIronMaiden:
After you flashed the 20g Oreo image, it will be stock as if you took the ota update itself. You'll be able to accept ota updates after words. Follow the root thread, amd you'll be fine
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] seikobasha:
The problem is i can't recieve ota updates even i am stock, it is AT&T restriction because my phone is unlocked am using other network (am not in us)

ota updates need to have a working AT&T SIM inserted in phone. It is very stupid policy for AT&T.

So my question now is, is there a way to convert h910 to h915 safely? Because Canadian operators allow ota to unlocked phones...

Or is there a way to manually upgrade in future after i upgrade to stock oreo?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] clsA:
why are you worried about updates when you can't take them now ?

Yes you can convert your phone to 915 it's the first step in the rooting process

if you want to stay 915 use the H915 Oreo KDZ > https://xdaforums.com/v20/how-to/h915-oreo-kdz-link-t3826812

If you want a H910 on Oreo use my zip. If another update comes along their will always be another zip (provided we get root and TWRP for Oreo)
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] seikobasha:
In case i will just flash the h915 oreo kdz, should i flash all partitions? Including modem, bootloader, etc...

Is it safe? Because in the guide it say i will loose the signal after flashing h915...

Also Should i still root first or can just flash directly?

Also is it safe to get future ota updates when software is for h915 and treat my phone as if it is h915 from the beginning?

Many thanks in advance.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] darkknight200:
You flash all partitions for non rooted stock which should work like normal with everything working.

My guide is for those trying to keep root intact so to preserve the dirtysanta eng aboot so there are problems with data at the moment.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] alan2323:
I'm in the same situation as the creator of this thread, I can not update my phone from OTA

Assuming I do this to update. Would Android Oreo be rooted? Could I enter TWRP ?.

Since If I do this procedure and update my phone to Oreo and I don't have root or chance to get into TWRP . I would be stuck until there is some way to root the phone (if it comes into existence)

PS: I bought an AT&T sim card from eBay, but I couldn't activate it. Do you guys have any idea if the sim being activated I could update my phone despite not being in an AT&T network?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] CaseyS:
You will loose root and be back to stock bootloader so no twrp. It's stock oreo with no way of rooting it for now.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
Just to clarify this statement a little. If you want to run Oreo now, you can't have root. However, you CAN downgrade back to Nougat and root when we finally have the Oreo + engineering bootloader issues worked out.

The US996 will be getting Oreo eventually, and that firmware is what is going to allow us to have rooted Oreo on models that use the engineering bootloader.

If the US996 wasn't getting Oreo, then I would waste the time trying to get things sorted out -- but that is just a waste of time.

We have waited for Oreo this long, waiting another couple of weeks isn't going to hurt.

As a final statement, I have had a chance to play with Oreo on my H910, and I am NOT impressed. What a ****poor, crap job that LG has done. It may get better with future updates, but I wouldn't bank on it.

I remember reading earlier this year about how LG was going to reform their mobile division, getting better at software updates and halting/slowing down the typical release schedule of phones.

ARB is still zero.

thanks a lot for all of you :)
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] ozkaya:
Why do you think US996 getting Oreo helps? What if the eng aboot can't initialize the oreo modem properly (maybe intentional change)? I have a thought, maybe we can try if the stock nougat aboot, say H910, can boot the Oreo with data? We could flash everything Oreo stock and just leave the aboot nougat. Since signatures are still LG, it should boot up? And if it still can't have data, maybe eng aboot can never initialize properly, I don't know.

Questions about the H910 --> H915 Conversion

I have read several different postings on how to change the H910 to H915

I read the posting by runningnak3d and I am bit confused.

Sorry for the noob questions

1) If I flash H910 to the H915 v10e kdz, do I have to continue the steps to flash to oreo or can the phone be updated from OTA?

I really don't want the AT&T logos on my phone and I don't need my phone to be rooted or need dirtysanta.

2) Would flashing it with LG UP be enough to get Oreo?

3) I'm confused with the steps after downloading terminal emulator? - Do I need to do these steps if I want to keep the H915 Rom?

Sorry if my questions are dumb.

Thank you in advance.

Much appreciated

-Rmc604
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] seikobasha:
you can do as i did, just flash H915 KDZ Oreo file directly using patched LGUP and select to Partition DL all partitions.

you will have stock oreo H915 fully functional phone, there is only 1 error message that will appear every reboot of phone but will not make any harm.

there is no any issues or problems i have noticed so far, also the software seems more stock than AT&T version.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] clsA:
you can simply use lgup to backup your current setup (not userdata)

and use lgup to flash the 915 Oreo kdz

Note: someone said that converting to 915 caused google now to stop working but everything else was ok

if you want to return to 910 stock you'll have to do the root procedure and flash h910 10q or 20g back to stock rom from TWRP

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] neodenjin:
I recently bought a GSM unlocked 910H from ebay and I was going to follow the advice in this thread and use the patched LG UP to flash the H91520a_00_RGS_CA_OP_0717.kdz Android 8.x Oreo rom onto it. I live in Canada so I thought this would be the closest I could get to something that would be somewhat debloated and functional for up north.

I was not planning on running any root procedures because you lose root anyway when your on oreo. But in the future, I would like the option to root the phone.

Is what I am going to do not recommended? Should I just stick to flashing H910 Oreo instead of H915?

Oh, come on... He tried to say that this phone wasn't sold officially in many countries. In my case there are no problems with 4g, modem, mms etc. I just want to get software update. And with 910 it doesn't matter in US you live or not - only at&t network to get ota update.
