The bin files are what you need. You can rename them if you want, or you can change the updater-script to use the filenames that you are given.

Have you looked at the Samsung forums recently? Qualcomm upped their security, so even easy ODIN rooting is not possible on Qualcomm chips. It IS still easy on Exynos chips, but no US carrier has Exynos chip based phones.

Boot from your FWUL USB stick

How do I do this (no experience) from HP Windows 10 laptop?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] runningnak3d:
All the instructions are in the FWUL thread that I linked to.

Everything worked for me, just needed to rename TWRP-3.2.1-joan-v0.1.img file to twrp.img on the sdcard
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Binary Flood:
Quick Question. Would it have been fine to take the official H93220k kdz and use Partition DL on the patched LGUP to flash everything except Recovery and LAF to get Oreo? Once all the steps have been done and you're running Nougat with TWRP and Magisk.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Josh McGrath:
No because if it flashes the system abl etc, you will have a hard brick and you'll be out of luck for good and the phone won't boot at all, a 9008 mode hard brick
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] inuyasha1999:
Once you have your FWUL USB stick ready, just shut down your laptop, plug in the USB stick, press power, and then keep pressing F9 while it's booting. That should bring you to the boot menu where you can select your USB drive.

Thank you!

it work thanks ??

finally update my v300s to v 21k without losing root
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] BROKEN1981:
Go into magisk and make sure Titanium Backup still has root access.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] friedCELLS:
Definitely not hardware related because nougat doesn't have these issues on the same device. Many people complain of bugs on Oreo. Mainly with Bluetooth. And mainly on H932. This is my second H932 with the exact same bugs on both. Now, what I believe is causing the Bluetooth issues is I have 3 devices connected via Bluetooth at the same time in the car. When it connects to the 2nd and 3rd, the audio stutters during connecting and the audio is never able to play right after that. So it's entirely possible that people would never see this issue if they only connect to the car or 1 device. But for work, I need all 3 of these devices connected. And has worked fine for a year on nougat. If you Google 'Oreo Bluetooth bugs', it's actually common across many many devices on Oreo. Unfortunately.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Xblackberryuser:
It does not. Not sure what happened.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] BROKEN1981:

if there isn't a stock 10d zip out there I can pull down the kdz and make one. ill try to get it done by tomorrow
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] wireeater:
I used the detoxed Oreo for a week and didn't have a single crash or glitch other than with magisk modules disappearing when I would install one and reboot. I ended up installing lineage but I think I'm going to go back cuz I really miss my quad dac and this at time seems to be more unstable with like the fingerprint reader and randome app crashes but I do really like it.

I'm pretty sure I have the 10d saved on my desktop from when i flashed. I can toss it on my gdrive.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] BROKEN1981:
Any idea why this is not working?

I went to my download folder, shift + right click on the mouse. I get this error.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] mattgyver:
Is your adb directory in your PATH variable? Type "set path" and see.

Also, "cannot stat" is a weird error for an adb command. Hmmmm

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Let you run Nougat. For H932 people that are unhappy on stock Oreo. Apparently T-mobile H932 Oreo has some Bluetooth issues. I don't see them on US998, but I'm also not connecting 3 Bluetooth devices at once. Plus more complaints on H932 Oreo than anywhere else. That's why T-mobile pause the Oreo update back in May for a month. Some people say the problems still persist.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
But that's what custom roms are for :P
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] mattgyver:
As long as they're supported :D ;)

I don't know how it's looking from your end, but the public side of the v30 forums look like they're behaving :D
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
Ive released a treble rom for you guys. you should be good to go on GSIs now :P
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] wills3gslide:
Thank you for not giving up on us H932 users [MENTION=4591212]me2151[/MENTION]

Having treble will be awsome!!!

I didn't want to spill the beans to the rest of you yet, still testing, RR & AOSiP is on the way, waiting for uploads to finish and [MENTION=5070414]Josh McGrath[/MENTION] to take them for a test drive before official release
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] weakNPCdotCom:
If for any reason somebody wants to go back to stock nougat and/or re-enable OTA updates, it's much easier than flashing the KDZ. Plus I'll be breaking it down and making separate bootloader, modem and system-only zips which can actually come in handy. Not sure about the V30, but on the G6 you actually need the Nougat bootloader for Fingerprint Scanning to even be an option in some custom roms.

But if you're happy with what you got then you wont need it.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
Still haven't decided. I made that treble build the same time as the non treble. just forgot about it cuz no one had vendor partition yet lol
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
I hate Oreo. I made a huge mistake updating to it. The only good thing about it is battery life ( a bit above average). Like mentioned above, Bluetooth is garbage, lags a lot, ram management is absolutely horrible and I have to restart my phone everyday to get it to stabilize. If I can flash nougat back, I'd do it in a heartbeat and never look back. I have an iPhone laying around and I've actually been thinking of using it instead of my V30 now.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] weakNPCdotCom:
Wow. Glad to know about these issues before I get my V30. lol.

In process of downloading the 10d KDZ. Then I should be repacking some zips tonight. Hopefully they will be of help.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
Yup, if you ever get your V30 and it comes with nougat do NOT update that thing. And if you ever get that kdz packed successfully, please make a separate thread for it with some instructions. I'm dying to revert back.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] BROKEN1981:
I am NOT getting the issues that you listed. Perhaps you forget to flash rctd-disabler along with no verity.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] wills3gslide:
LoL, yea H932 just had to be the odd ball out of all v30 variants. Wasn't going to get back into android to deep with family taking a lot of my time, but wife and kids are letting me play a little:cool:

I'm very greatful having my h932 with [MENTION=3167089]runningnak3d[/MENTION] and you taking time of your own to allow awesomeness happen, thank you guys very much for making all this possible!!!!
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
Do you have a T-Mobile phone? And what is that rctd-disabler and no verity things? lol
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] BROKEN1981:
Yep, T-Mobile. When rooted you need to flash that.

It's in Running post
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
Oh! I'm talking about a non rooted stock V30 on Oreo.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] BROKEN1981:
Very odd man. Send it back to LG. That's not normal. I thought my V20 was fast. This V30 blows it out of the water.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
Nah. H932 was easy. H931/H933 are MUCH worse.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
I want to send it back to them, but what do I tell them. The phone is working. Will they accept a return for the issues I've mentioned?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] weakNPCdotCom:
H931 is the ATT variant? I hear they are rarely supporting unlocked bootloaders anymore

---------- Post added at 05:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:00 AM ----------

if your phone is stock it might be easier for you to use LGUP and just downgrade. you have to do that anyways to root
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
I wish it was that easy. I lost the download mode trying to "root". Now I can't flash anything.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
At this point ALL v30s are boot loader unlock able due to WTF. H932 was just simple firmware issues preventing boot. H931/H933 are much deeper issues that I still haven't even found x.x
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] wills3gslide:
yea I remember a time I was going to go with AT&T for a provider, then seen how locked down they were and went to T-mobile, been with T-mobile for around 15yrs
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] inuyasha1999:
I, too, have been having issues with my bluetooth audio cutting out randomly with Oreo, but didn't have the issue when on Nougat. It's nowhere near as severe as I've seen others complain about, though. I have followed most of the suggested "fixes", but still get audio drops. Only things connected at the time are the audio device that the audio is playing through at the time, and my Garmin vivoactive 3. I have the bluetooth entries in the Apps list already setup in the Power Saving Exclusions list, and just added the Garmin Connect app a little while ago. Haven't used anything audio related since then, though, so I'm not sure if that helped, yet.

Update: Just watched a couple of videos on YouTube, and am still having audio drops over bluetooth :(.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] BROKEN1981:
Just tell LG you get random reboots, the phone locks up. Freezing/gliching.

If you are waiting for a kdz to downgrade, give up on that idea right now. You lost download mode.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] weakNPCdotCom:
Yeah, sadly if you didnt at least get TWRP on your recovery partition you are gonna be out of options.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Josh McGrath:
You're going to be out of warranty anyway so just send it to them and they will just swap the board when they find out they can't flash it anyway. Unless they use QC tools, but I highly doubt they put that much effort in it.

I have never had more than 2 BT connections at one time and I've never had any issues other than the range sucks cause it cuts out when I stretch at the gym. I agree though, seems LG and tmo half-assed the upgrade to Oreo.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
Yup gonna have a chat with them today.

I'm on their customer promise two years warranty, but regardless, I'm taking to them today.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] mattgyver:
That second year gives you the same warranty as the first year, that's all. You unlocked your bootloader. That voids any warranty you had left.

There are very few phone manufacturers that don't void for unlocked bootloaders.. That was a good perk of OnePlus.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
But

all V30 can be bootloader unlocked and rooted.

Doesn't matter what AT&T or even LG "supports".

It's just for some reason the AT&T H931 and Canadian H933 -- once converted to US998 and rooted -- cannot boot AOSP ROMs. While other North America variants Sprint LS998/Verizon VS996/regional AS998 can, as well as original US998. [MENTION=4591212]me2151[/MENTION] is helping to figure out why.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
Well, then it'll be a shot at luck. My bootloader has been unlocked twice. If they did check then I'm screwed basically lol
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] BROKEN1981:
Just adb reboot fast boot oem lock
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
I did, but it has a counter for how many times the bootloader was unlocked. Mine showed 2 when I had a download mode lol
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
With the "official" LG bootloader unlock website for the few phones for which they give codes, they make you agree to a warranty waiver that you give up your warranty rights. I had to do that with one V30, the only one which was bootloader unlocked the official way. In that case, they have a record in their files. I willingly gave up the warranty just as I did with my Motorola Quark phones.

Ironically, then when my wife dropped her true US998 V30 phone in a gravel parking lot and cracked her display, HER phone was still under 2-year warranty (had never been bootloader unlocked), but the warranty did not cover replacing the display. Had to pay LG $150 for an "out of warranty" repair. But now good as new.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
Oh, so you're saying that if I unlocked through adb they won't check or even find out?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
They CAN find out by running fastboot getvar all. Depends on whether they take the time. If they're busy, they just wipe it, replace the firmware, send it back.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] K-alz:
Sounds good to me. Plus, they won't be able to see how many times it's been unlocked since there is no download mode, unless, like you said, they run getvar
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] whojabacod:
Uhh...... Lost finger print sensor after root.. ??
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] friedCELLS:
Just an FYI if anybody else has issues with Bluetooth: I've got it working fine for 2 days now. As stated before, disabled battery optimizations for all Bluetooth services. Also cleared data and cache on all Bluetooth services. Also reset all network settings (beware, this deletes all Wi-Fi passwords also). Now, I did all this already only to have the problem return in a few hours of driving. But it's been 2 days now, and it's still working. Only thing I did different was not connecting a 3rd Bluetooth device while driving. I have 2 connected. The 3rd isn't essential. Also, I changed AVCRP mode on developer options to 1.6. Something in this process has it working now. But I really believe it's the 3rd Bluetooth device. I don't think Oreo handles multiple Bluetooth devices well. At least in our device.

I was having problems also with my mileage tracking app getting force closed and not tracking. Didn't have this issue on nougat. Fixed this also. I had been looking for a permanent way to change the apps group from empty application to foreground or secondary server to put it in higher priority on OOM management. But this was a complicated process involving changing services.jar and repacking it. Instead, I just changed the OOM settings for the whole system with a memory management app to kill empties at around 165 and adjusted the rest a bit lower as well. Also, in recents menu, I pinned the mileage app. Don't know if this also helps force it to stay in memory, but it's not getting closed in the background anymore. So I may be sticking with Oreo as the battery life is pretty amazing. I've never had such battery life on any phone before. My record was 10h SOT with a nexus phone years ago on CM. But 12 hours SOT with this device on Oreo stock is insane. Granted, I've frozen or deleted a good handful of at least 50 apps/processes. So that helps.

Thanks. Will be glad to donate if I get it to work
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] invert_nexus:
I think that that code is what will appear on the screen after you've ran lglaf.py. The next code you need to type in is the part with exec toybox. Be careful that you enter that in correctly.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] mattgyver:
He's right. Once you run

./lglaf.py

It will show you that text. you want to type the following once that shows up:

!EXEC toybox dd if=/storage/external_SD/twrp.img of=/dev/block/sde bs=4096 seek=10246\0
!CTRL POFF

Copy/paste will work best, but if you're typing it, be ABSOLUTELY sure you type TWO SPACES after !EXEC or you're going to have an issue.
