[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Pisckuy:
Hello, i from to Argentina and I recently bought an unlocked v30+ on eBay. In the software settings it says that it's us998u and on the sticker on the back of the phone it says ls998. It is unlocked and working on cricket wireless. The only issue is that it came with Android 7.1.2 and it says it is currently running the latest version and that there are no updates available. I was fairly sure that all models of the v30 had 8.0.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] elijah420:
You purchased someone Sprint LS998 that was bootloader unlocked, rooted, and had open market software installed instead of the Sprint software.

For all intents and purposes, it's a US998. hardware is identical. It's just 1's and 0's that's different.

It is updatable. You can find an up-to-date KDZ to flash, along with flashing software and instructions so ewhere in the forums.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Pisckuy:
Thanks for answering. What do you mean by the 0's and 1's? Is there any chance that I'll block if I update it or something, and stop working to Argentina?

Many people say that when his update to oreo, the phone block

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
May never have been bootloader unlocked and rooted. Seller just Frankenstein converted to Nougat and left there. They didn't even finish flashing Oreo. They're probably able sell it for more money with carrier unlocked US998 (works with every carrier) than locked down Sprint LS998 which is is SIM card locked to Sprint.

I think my brother-in-law bought one like that. His old HTC phone got dunked in water and he needed phone fast. He's on AT&T and I told him to buy "mint" US998 off eBay, because I don't have time right now to mess with it (to convert LS998 to US998). I'm pretty sure it was previously LS998 because it's the SAME seller I bought my two LS998 from. ;) That's fine, seller did the work for me or most of it. It's probably on Nougat too, but my brother in law doesn't care. I'll take a look at it when I get a chance.

No, it won't stop working. Just flash to Oreo with dev patched LGUP. If you don't care about bootloader unlock and root, flash to the very latest in my US998 KDZ thread. If you do care, then first flash older Oreo, unlock the village bootloader, then flash to most recent.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Pisckuy:
I, thx for your awnser. I have a question, i can update to oreo or this can block yo use in argentina? I talk with sprint and they tell me that the phone is unlock yo use in other carriers.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Pisckuy:
If i dont care about bootloader unlock i need flash us99820d direct?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Then this is what you want:

[US998][STOCK][OREO]LG V30 US998 US99820d_01_0710.kdz

Install the most recent KDZ you find in post #1, which right now is 20D. If someone finds this thread a couple of months from now, may be higher letters/numbers.

Download the KDZ and also download/install the dev patched LGUP you find attached to post #1. You want "upgrade" option. That will keep your data and you don't need anything other choices. The phone has already been converted to US998 and even Master Reset (apparently). They just didn't finish

my instructions in the Frankenstein thread.

This is dev patched LGUP. You want "Upgrade" just like this shows. This shows upgrading from Nougat 10D to 20A, but you would choose 20D (or whatever is current, if you don't care about bootloader unlock.)

They converted from LS998 to US998 Nougat and put it on ebay as US998. (Which it is now.) I bought two LS998 off eBay and quickly converted them to carrier unlocked US998. But selling US998 probably gets more demand as that will work with any carrier.

Hello !

I wanted to check if ARB was activated on my mi8 (Locked bootloader, miui 9.5 version 9.6.7.0) , so I launched the command "fastboot getvar anti" in fastboot mode and it says "error: no such variable"

So then I launched "fastboot getvar all" and this is what it printed :

Shouldn't I have an "anti" variable with a number normally ?

does I have ARB activated or is there another way to know if ARB is activated ?

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeavermanA:
Was taking a pic with my 6P, and it sort of locked up on the camera screen(status bar pull down working but wouldn't respond to any touches like back, home or just going into settings from the status bar). So I just held the power button down to reboot, and now my display doesn't even turn on. The phone is running, was playing Pandora automatically when I went to my car, and can feel it unlock with the fingerprint.

Phone had been having issues with touch for about a week prior, as in it would stop responding to touches for 1-5 seconds or so constantly. Did a factory reset and wiped everything, but issue persisted.

Anything I can try here or is the display done? Guess I can't get into ADB mode because the phone is set to 'charge only' when connected to PC and I can't change it? Phone is rooted running Pure Nexus rom.

Don't think I'd bother with replacing the display if that's the fix, was ready to upgrade.
[G4] ashasaur:
Hey all, this is NOT a "howz to git to Windowze Mobiil 6.!!!!" post, but rather a question about "upgrading" a ROM. I am currently running TNT's Windows Mobile 6.1 Proffesional ROM, and I have just learned that there is any upgrade to that particular ROM, and would like to know if I can safely upgrade to it from WM6.1, or do I have to downgrade back to the Love ROM and then upgrade again. Heres my device history if it helps:

Device=Cingular 8125, SIM Unlocked(using Lokwiz 3.0)

Original ROM=Cingular WM5.0

Current ROM=TNT WM 6.1 V1

Heres how I upgraded it originally:

Got it home, used the HardSPL method to make my IPL/SPL 2.26.XXXX(so my device IS a G4), tried to upgrade to WM6.1...no luck. Discovered that you have to upgrade to the LOVE ROM first, so I tried that...again, no luck. So I then used the SoftSPL.exe to temporairily CID unlock my device I guess, and then proceeded to upgrade to the LOVE ROM, then to the TNT WM 6.1 V1 ROM.

Now, my device is working fine, and I would just like to know if I CAN upgrade to the new V2 ROM, and if what I did to get this far is correct. ANy help is appreciated!
[G4] mestrini:
My opinion is that flashing the LOVE ROM was a unnecessary step. I never do anything like that before changing ROMs (flashing a stock ROM and the like)

That almost answers your question except that having used SoftSPL your CID block is still locked and SPL knows it so you must either:

1- Flash SoftSPL before flashing the TNT

2- Flash the HardSPL to not worrying about it ever again when wanting to change ROMs (my option - if i had a G4)

hope it's clear

cheers

PS:

Use WST to check if you SPL is HardSPL'ed or not with "Device Info" option
[G4] S.V.I:
"G4 SAFE" What does that mean???

I have a question about What G4 safe?

I uploaded a rom with HTCLogo.nb+Splash.nb+OS.nb (I assume that because there is no IPL/SPL it should be safe for G4????)
[G4] mestrini:
Absolutely right m8 :)

As you can see from the pics only the IPL and SPL have versions depending on the DOC chip (G3 3.08 in this case ;))

cheers

[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] spark25:
Hi,

So the Nokia 7 plus is supposed to have a Secondary telephoto lens for 2x optical zoom. But there is no way(not that I am aware of) in the Nokia camera app to use that lens.

There is a button for 2x zoom in the camera interface. But when you click that the secondary camera is not used. It is digitally zooms with the primary lens.

I was curious if the telephoto lens is actually being used or not, so i clicked different pictures with 1x and 2x zoom and when I compared the info of the pictures, both the 1x as well as 2x pictures were using the same 12.2MP/f1.8 lens.

simpler confirmation, switch 2x button and put your thumb on second lens

This makes the secondary lens just a decoration if you can't use it. (unless for the portrait shots, which I don't think is very convenient, but that's another story).

Am I missing something here? Is there a way to use the optical zoom features or is Nokia missing so something.

I have attached pictures I took.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] k3dar7:
btw:simpler confirmation, switch 2x button and put your thumb on second lens ;)
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] fornix:
It indeed uses second lens when you click 1x button. The metadata is added by camera software. If what you say is true, it's just a bug in the camera software where it just stamps the first lens info on all photos.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Gravemind2015:
[MENTION=7429725]spark25[/MENTION] The camera app has been using only the primary camera for me since I bought the device, and 2x mode is digital zoom. Even in the latest camera update. The only place where telephoto activates is the portrait (bokeh) mode.

Maybe they will utilize it in Pie, as it includes multi-camera api so there could be smooth transition between the two camera streams.

Edit: It does use the telephoto camera lens when there is a good lighting.

[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] spark25:
Try putting your thumb on the secondary lens when zooming.

Noisy shots on bokeh mode

Can someone confirm if pictures taken from the bokeh mode turn out too noisy and pixelated? The picture is very grainy and loses everything on zooming in.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] xaL_:
The tele Lens only activates under certain conditions, when it can focus on far objects with good lighting otherwise it will use the normal lens with smaller aperture.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] AthulSubash:
The secondary camera only works under certain conditions and I can confirm that if you your place the finger in front of it it just digitally zooms. It probably works only in good lighting.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] arj322:
The 2x Tele Lens only works when there's a good amount of light is available. (Since, photos taken with 2x Lens is bad at dark)

However, there's a trick that works sometimes:

Point your camera with with 2x Zoom at a bright white spot(area) or a bright white wall, the software will automatically switch into 2x Tele lens.

Keep in mind, using 2x Lens at dark doesn't give good results. The photos quality is worse at dark with 2x Lens (because of grainy and dark pictures)

Installing stock ROM

You mentioned in your post to "Installing stock will be the same as of flashing any ROM. Make sure to wipe everything before the flash." Okay, so what does that mean? Do I connect my Nook HD+ to my computer and clear everything out, as in a reformat, or what. Seems nothing I do will get rid of the error message "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped".

Can you help me on this?

Thanks,

In TWRP, advanced wipe, clear system, cache, divac-cache, data. If the package is on the internal storage, don't wipe that. If the package is on a SD Card, wipe the internal storage. No need to flash gapps, because the stock ROM already provides gapps.

It allows to set any frequency you want for custom channels on your Mijia Walkie Talkie. To do this:

1) Uninstall "MI PTT" ; install application mod, pair it with Walkie Talkie.

2) Tap gearwheel icon to enter "Radio Settings" screen; tap "switch >" to open channels setup screen.

3) Tap "Custom CHs" to open custom channels list; if you don't have custom channels - create one by "+" button.

4) Long-tap custom channel name to open channel popup menu.

5) Mod only: there should be a new item in this menu: "Fine tune" (1st screenshot). Tap it -> "Fine tune" dialog will be opened (2nd screenshot) and you can enter any frequency you want (in Herz!), not limited by Xiaomi range.

6) Tap to custom channel you've edited, to select it on Mijia.
