I'm on US99820a (but my hardware model says LS998) and I don't really remember how I got it all set up last year to have all the Sprint functionality (LTE etc.). I'd like to upgrade to US99820h. Can I flash this (27a) after to get back the Sprint stuff, or is that moving backwards on the firmware?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
If you go to US998h and you are a Sprint customer, you will not have LTE. 20h is a more current update but we're going to get that updated soon anyway when we get our next Sprint update. John is going to do the update when he has time. Coming back from US998h to LS998; you need to follow the steps in that thread. It needs to be done before coming back to this ROM. Basically you need to flash that rom to get Sprint service, then you can flash this or your TWRP backup. The thread is titled something like US998 TO LS998. I've done it a couple of times already too.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] minhntp:
Could you share the link for the official .kdz files for LS998U? I tried searching on Google but I found nothing. Thank you so much.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
You will never find anything.

Sprint doesn't release full image KDZ. There are no official KDZ files. On unrooted stock firmware, if you are not a Sprint customer, you will never get updates.

This TWRP-FLASHABLE zip is hand built by dev from OTA (partial image) updates.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
[MENTION=6815443]JohnFawkes[/MENTION] I posted in the US998h thread about how I got my Sprint 998 to get calls, texts and LTE working. It was a combination of things others, including you mentioned in various posts. I only used TWRP. The BIG rub is that no matter which video or audio application (tested Netflix, YouTube, Dish Anywhere, Spotify, native music player, stock video player, Hulu, Pandora) we get no sound and barely moving (slow) video. I'm not the first to mention this, but others used LG UP; I used TWRP which for me is easier to play around with in trying to resolve the issue. What's interesting is the one way it all works perfectly is if we switch the audio output to Bluetooth. The headphone jack output does not work to resolve the issue either. It gives me the same result. Only Bluetooth gets the video and audio to work. I'm thinking the Bluetooth "fix" is some kind of a clue regarding what's wrong. [MENTION=1488317]boxchevy[/MENTION] also got some results where he mentioned he tested US998e,f,g and h for slow video and didn't have a problem until he got to h.

If this is off topic for your LS998 thread, I apologise. Just thinking that if there's a significant detail we found, it could save a lot of time, maybe even eliminate some other time consuming project.

I'm willing to test if your time permits looking into this.

[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
That's because you have to flash e f g and h at once to fix youtube/no sound issue. And ive already tried pretty much what you described already and had no luck with getting lte working. Regardless I stay on ls998 rom because I need the VoLTE and VoWifi which in us998 are nonexistent
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
Also you have to keep in mind that there's still a sprint update I haven't had time to do yet. So 27a is older than h. Maybe don't update to h until I get the latest sprint rom finished. Idk. Just a thought
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
Okay John. I'll restore my 27a backup. But just for clarification, I did flash them all at once. That was because I saw your post about exactly that. Anyway, your point about waiting is "well pointed". That's what I'm gonna do! Thanks for the quick reply.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] jhienk:
Thanks John, if there is anyway to help you with our Sprint updates let us know, I would be glad to help and I'm sure others would also
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
Unfortunately there's not much that can be done. Since sprint doesn't release the kdz there's alot of steps that need to be done that if not done correctly could potentially mess up your device when you go to pull the partitions. Should be done in the next couple of days hopefully. My paid vacation from work ends in 4 days so I've been trying to catch up on my todo list
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
Weird. It's likely that 27a is an older firmware then that's causing the issues then
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Is there anything good in this new update? Modem? Radio? Anything that will make anything much better?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] jhienk:
Suck up that paid vacation!! Will be waiting
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] slyest12:
I've had a strange thing recently rear it's head at me on my LS998. I'm on this ROM, and any time I watch Netflix (and it was only Netflix) my phone reboots. It got so bad I actually let my Netflix sub lapse - my kids love that. Prime Video works, and Hulu did until today. I was about 10 minutes into a show when it force rebooted.

Has anyone heard of this or had it happen? I've reflashed the ROM, wiped caches, done a full wipe and still have the same issue.

I can't try on other ROMs, since I can't seem to get data and/or service going at the same time on anything else.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
I just checked and both work perfectly. As a matter of habit, I hide magisk from those apps. If you want to try on another ROM, I'm sure you can get the US998 back to LS998 ROM working with calls texts and data. Then let us know after you try Netflix and Hulu in that rom. But first see if you're hiding in magisk. That's the easiest first step.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
Not recommending anyone does what I did, but I managed to do a lot of de-bloating and am not having any ill affects. I don't like using the Facebook app so I always freeze it with TiBu and froze several other apps as I didn't want to mess with removing anything. An aside to this, I still sign into facebook but from Opera Mini Browser where there are no permissions needed. Anyway, after a while I started to get crashes from facebook-appmanager. That was the only one giving me problems from freezing it. That's when I decided to try and uninstall it. (TWRP backup first) After uninstalling facebook-appmanager, the crashes stopped. Now I felt empowered to try more. Every time I did, I made another backup though. I uninstalled everything I didn't want. The phone is still running great. I used Root Explorer. I only uninstalled the apk files and left the folders and other contents alone. All of Amazon and Google stuff that I never use. Facebook and Messenger to name a few things that are now gone. I feel like my phone is even faster than before now.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JesseAaronSafir:
Hey I just installed this ROM yesterday. So far I love the update from 21a but I have a few questions.

First, I got prompted to take an OTA. I'll pretty sure it would fail with TWRP installed and even if it worked I'd lose Magisk root, right? Is the OP working on an updated version that has this OTA?

Secondly, my always on display digital clock is smaller than I had on 21a. Is there any way to get that larger clock back? I'd like to be able to see the time without my glasses. Thanks!
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
Enable developer settings and disable Auto update. Yes this ROM is a pain in the butt to update for the dev. You can read about it in past posts. The clock, I use a widget and it's big enough. Maybe someone else has a better answer though
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
Already answered above. NEVER take an OTA. With TWRP custom recovery, it should fail -- but if it succeeded it would mess up your phone. If you search, you can also find the updater file(s) you should freeze in Titanium Backup. (Someone recently took an OTA who was rooted -- and yeah, it screwed up their phone -- but I suspect they didn't really have TWRP installed correctly.)

The recent update that brought us the DTS Surround Sound framework also took away some of the Always On Display (AOD) clock options -- in particular the colorful stacked clocks. Of the remaining choices "Digital" is larger than the others, but I still prefer "Signature".

Also with the new choices, LG has the clocks move up and down the screen more aggressively to prevent burn-in.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
Yeah I didn't realized I wasn't answering his clock question until afterwards. Ty
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JesseAaronSafir:
Man that sucks so the larger AOD clock is just gone. I was hoping there might be a mod like in Magisk or Xposed that could give me more AOD options.

And I've just disabled auto-update in Dev Options.

I realize the LGUP dump method to create a new flashable version of each update is a PITA but I was just wondering if the OP was planning to do that for this latest OTA.

In general it's really surprised me how few ROM options there are for LS998 considering how long it's been out and it was released as a flagship device and one of the few that could be bootloader unlocked and fully rooted.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
[MENTION=6815443]JohnFawkes[/MENTION] creates a lot of our TWRP-flashable zips. But since Sprint doesn't release public KDZ, he has to UNroot, go get the OTA and hand-build an image. To be honest, if he weren't a Sprint customer himself, he probably wouldn't do it. ;)

Oh, there's tons of ROM options for LS998. Why do you think there's not? :confused: I count at least 15 AOSP/Linage ROMs just in the first 2 pages of the ROMs section, which were all updated in the past month.

I suggest you re-read

this sticky post

, particularly, point #3. ;)

However, I'm still on stock rooted firmware myself as I know everything works, and with

mods like this one

(and a few others), I don't need AOSP/Lineage custom ROMs. If you had told me a couple of years ago I would ever NOT be running a custom ROM on my phone, I would have told you that you were crazy. In other forums, I'm the one who wrote the custom ROM threads! :cool:

[MENTION=3250376]ChazzMatt[/MENTION] What does this do for us Sprint guys? on latest 27a

I saw the list of stuff, but most is greek to me ;)

And also...how do you install it? I dont see it in Magisk Manager Downloads section
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
TWRP-flashable zip, always install while in TWRP custom recovery environment.

Make a TWRP backup first, just in case. Some of the features I like:

Forced HIM mode, so more volume even on headphones under 50 ohms. (She recently lowered that some, but still more volume.)

Kernel tweaking script, so better battery life.

Dual speaker mode, so some audio come at you from the top speaker as well, instead of just the bottom speaker.

Camera improvements using stuff from the G7/V40 cameras.

Some Wi-Fi improvements.

Some GPS stuff.

IF you don't like it, either

restore TWRP backup or

just dirty flash this ROM again (plus reflash Magisk). Every time you flash a ROM, you have to re-install any Magisk mods you wish to keep. So, if you dirty flash this ROM + Magisk, but NOT that mod, then that effectively uninstalls it. ;)

But always make a TWRP backup before you install something new.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Thanks! ....So IF I flash just the Mod...don't need to reflash Magisk?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
Right.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Back in the day I used to recalibrate my battery stats often.....any need for that stuff anymore?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
And all these additions are automatic? or there are added settings. (Camera I know has them in settings)
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
Yes, automatic.

And I too love custom ROMs but like Matt said, everything works on this stock ROM. [MENTION=1923447]WhiteWidows[/MENTION] is working on getting the AOSP ROMs more Sprint friendly. He's getting help from some DEVs, onei in particular from the V20 forum that knows his way around Sprint. He started a thread so you can follow and help if possible. He'll need testers on LS998 for sure. Also, after this ROM gets updated, we might be able to get a fully working (including LTE) US998h on our LS998. We'll have to see though. Lots of great things coming for LS998.

[MENTION=3250376]ChazzMatt[/MENTION] What about the app "Sprint Hub" has anyone successfully frozen or deleted it? it uses a lot of battery....What is it for?

[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
YOU SHOULDN'T TRY ANY OF THIS WITHOUT MAKING A BACKUP IN TWRP FIRST!

ChazzMatt isn't on Sprint, that's not to say he doesn't know the answer, but he's not on Sprint. I de-bloated a lot of things over the past several days as mentioned. Still no I'll affects. One force close on phone app after rebooting but that's it. I didn't remove Sprint Hub or ID. I read the Hub might have something to do with WiFi calling. Not sure about Sprint ID though but I'm leaving it alone.

Removed all Amazon, Facebook, Instagram, messenger.

Just a couple of priv-appa

Facebook installer, Amazon shopping, LG voice print, LG MY wellness,LQ Qhelp, GCUV, Eden

System apps in the screenshot (not all of them) from Facebook app manager down to the bottom of the screenshot. Just to clarify; the system apps in the screenshot above Facebook app manager we not deleted.

PS - Google play movies is in the videos folder. Last one in the screenshot.

MADE SEVERAL TWRP BACKUPS ALONG THE WAY AND TESTED BEFORE DELETING MORE THAT WAY IF SOMETHING WENT WRONG I'D KNOW WHY.

Edit/Update: deleted MobileID and Sprint Mobile Framework apps. (Sprint Hub & Sprint ID)

we've had mixed results on Sprint Mobile Framework. Freezing it with TiBu has caused problems with WiFi calling. I deleted it and haven't had problems. Be sure to backup if you're going to try it.

THANKS [MENTION=2094839]mfinlay04[/MENTION]

Also deleted LG AMAZON ASSISTANT and LG AMAZON ATTRIBUTION APPS
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JesseAaronSafir:
I thought for AnxiousV30 Magisk you just downloadthe zip and load it as a module in Magisk. That's what I did and I'm pretty sure I got the enhancements? There's no interface to configure it, right?

Also I'm still getting the OTA prompts from "Android System Update" even though I disabled auto update in Dev Options. What do I need to freeze in TiBu?

---------- Post added at 08:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:31 PM ----------

And [MENTION=3250376]ChazzMatt[/MENTION] I mean custom ROMs based on stock Sprint not AOSP-based. I always want to be able to update PRL and Profile so anything other than something based on stock doesn't allow for that, right?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
You flash the Anxious V30 Magisk module in TWRP.

There is no interface to configure, but installs best in TWRP, flashing the zip.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mfinlay04:
I have deleted both of these apps without ill effects. WiFi calling still works as expected. worst case scenario, if you start to have issues just dirty flash the 27a zip and it will give you back all the bloat.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
I took your advice. Backed up first. Deleted MobileID and Sprint Mobile Framework apps.

WiFi calling seems unaffected. I'm adding to my post so it's all in one place. Battery is off the hook already even before doing these two. I ran Spotify for 1 hour+ today and my battery lost 2%.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
I think you will find after a reboot that the mobile framework app is needed... My wifi calling won't work when it's frozen...

Can you list which ones you deleted? Just those two?

The list is one page back. I didn't get any freeze yet. Are you saying the button won't turn on? I didn't freeze it. I deleted it. So far so good. It's been a few days.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Yes when you freeze it... You can't register with 911...and it doesn't connect... It seemed to but after a reboot when you goto 911 register under wifi calling it crashes
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
Mine never stopped working. It was set up prior to deleting the Sprint Mobile Framework app.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
As was mine... Caused a disaster... I would pull that recommendation for others... I haven't recovered yet even after a dirty flash of 27a
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
Have you had any problems when WiFi calling screen deleting Sprint Mobile Framework? Seems freezing it causes problems, while deleting it doesn't? I don't understand why though. Wondering if you're still okay without it?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Not gonna risk it again... What's the upside to getting rid of that? Sprint hub yes... It's burns battery

hi. i just got a really old nexus 5x.

the battery has expanded ( or swelled). it was left unused for a couple of months.

i removed the battery by opening up the device.

well, before removing the battery, when connected to the charger, only a "charging battery" icon was showing on the screen. no percentage. phone didn't boot up, if power button is pressed, "android" icon appeared, then again "battery icon".

after removing battery, i connected the charger.

same result. doesn't boot up. "android" icon appeared when power button is pressed, then back to "charging battery" icon

i pressed "vol down+power", it took me to recovery menu.

(doesn't have a custom recovery though, everything stock)

i might have a new battery tomorrow

but is the phone dead? or it just doesn't bootup because no battery?

(i assume the older battery is completely dead)

CLT-L29C432

https://androidhost.ru/1iPD

1. Download the service firmware from the links above for your respective model and extract the "dload" folder from it. It will contain a file called update_sd.zip and two folders - CLT-L09_hw_eu and CLT-L29_hw_eu, each with a respective secondary update package, leave these in the folders and delete whichever folder isn't relevant to your device e.g keep the L09 folder if you have the L09 folder and vice versa.

2. Drag the dload folder to an exFat formatted USB drive and have an OTG cable handy as this phone hasn't got MicroSD support.

3. Plug the OTG cable with the drive in the phone and now go to the phone dialer and dial *#*#2846579#*#* and go to Software Update and then select SD upgrade.
