[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marquee97:
Hi everone. I have the Samsung Galaxy S5 (Octa core version). Recently, i noticed that the battery had a strange behavior, so i planned to replaced when i finish my exams. During that time, the phone started to shut down randomly, so i bought a new battery thinking that would resolve all the problems, but it won't. The phone keeps shutting down alone, it happends when the battery percentage is below 60% and for turn on again i have to connect the phone charger or remove the battery and put it in again. Some times, the baterry percentage changes -/+ 15%, even from 40% to 3%. Oddly, sometimes the phone just get a black screen when i using it or the screen suffers some kind of distortion and shuts down.

Already did a factory reset and did some test on safe mode, but no luck. Curiously, when the phone is charging, there are no problems of any type.

Any clue of what could be?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] geekwithlens:
Hello there,

I had flashed a new firmware and vendor file using unofficial TWRP. I had forgot to flash the disable encryption zip file this time. I wish to revert the firmware and vendor but TWRP is asking for password to decrypt and I am not able to mount anything it. What are my options? I have Magisk installed in the device and rooted. Any way I can flash the disable encryption zip file from magisk manager itself? Please help. I am stuck. Thanks!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] geekwithlens:
Should I try flashing official TWRP from the official TWRP app? I am using the default kernel. Not sure if I need to flash a custom kernel as well. Let me know.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] geekwithlens:
Issue solved. I used the official TWRP android app to download the latest twrp and flashed it from the app itself by giving it root permission. I then booted into twrp recovery and flashed the old firmware plus vendor as well as flashed Franco kernal r12. Finally in peace! :)

i've just done the same thing, forgot to flash DFE. are you saying that you're now decrypted... no more encryption?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Congratulations on your new phone! You'll love it even better after updating to Oreo (better camera, other improvements) and rooting where you can flash or install various mods. You are right that this has AMAZING battery life.

I also owned two 2013 LG Nexus 5 (for me and my wife) and then owned three 2014 Moto Quark (a.k.a. Droid Turbo/Moto Turbo/Moto Maxx). I bought the Moto Quarks to replace the LG Nexus 5 as it was basically a "Moto Nexus 6" but in better 5.2" size. ;) (Google had two Nexus 6 prototypes as late as mid-August 2014, and went with the larger size for actual Moto Nexus 6 while the smaller one became the Moto Quark. Any number in the Nexus phones was generation, not screen size.)

I loved the Nexus 5 and Moto Quark phones . The 5" Nexus 5 was cutting edge for its day with 1080p display, Qi wireless charging and latest Snapdragon and 2GB RAM. The 2014 Moto Quark added to that by going to 5.2" OLED 1440p QHD, Qi wireless charging, 64GB internal storage, latest Snapdragon and 3GB RAM! ;) After keeping that for three years, for my next phone I didn't want to DOWNGRADE and lose features. I'm not going to give up Qi wireless charging and 1440p QHD after having those since 2013 and 2014! If I buy a phone, it's going to have premium features I can be proud of. (*cough* OnePlus)

I

researched relentlessly

through 2017, marking off about a dozen different phones as they failed to live up to my needs/expectations. :rolleyes: LG G6 was one such phone. The LG V30 was not even on my radar when I started that thread in early 2017 -- but by the end of the year, I realized it was the perfect phone on my checklist. (Galaxy Note 8 came in close 2nd, but was too large for my taste.) As a result of that research, besides me and my wife NINE other people I know personally (relatives/friends) own this V30 phone.

Now, in early 2019 the V30 series is still about the best phone out there. ;)

LG V30/V30+

1440P OLED (537 ppi)

Qi wireless charging

3.5mm headset jack

Quad DAC

IP68 dust/water resistance

rear camera OIS on normal lens - plus 120 degree wide angle lens

superfast fingerprint sensor

64GB (V30) or 128GB (V30+) internal storage

microSD port for additional storage

bootloader unlock and root

no notch

Show me another phone with all those features?

I have

Settings screenshot suggestions with Google Photos link

in that thread and my KDZ threads. Everyone has their own preferences, but there's so many deep (almost hidden) menus on this device it's easy to overlook some useful toggle (like the lock screen weather animations). And with root, I've been able to

enable them all -- not just the two LG has as default.

;)

I've also enabled

call recorder

and installed

this excellent combination mod

Glad you are enjoying. Still a great phone for the money. Your only problem is that you should have been using it as early as may!

Regarding wifi speeds, my converted v30+ only sees ~150mbps download speeds. I'm also on gigabit internet with fast routers and wireless AC. I never really used the phone on nougat and I'm curious if it's a bug in the Oreo build for US998 that causes the slowdown. In fairness, I don't know who needs speed any faster than 150mbps anyways but it's always kind of annoyed me. Maybe there's a bug in the network stack on us998 Oreo.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
That's when the WTF bootloader unlock exploit was discovered. ;) Until then only very few V30 could be rooted with an official LG bootloader unlock code -- which was difficult to get even for the two eligible models (lots of requirements: receipts from authorized retailer, IMEI and DEVICE ID which had to match LG database of eligible phones, registered LG account, etc.) I explained in the instructions.

WTF lets anyone unlock their bootloader, no need for permission from LG.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
The settings are screenshots of MY settings on Nougat. The Oreo settings are similar, so I haven't taken the time to go through them again...yet.

1) they show all the settings choices, some of which may be hidden to the average person if they don't know there's sub-menus inside of sub-menus.

2) they show all my choices, which of course are BEST. :p

1) Yes. In fact tonight, I finally edited WTF to recommend Magisk 18.

2) There is a way to replace the unlocked bootloader graphic using the "raw_resources" from another variant, but can be dangerous. Someone bricked their phone doing it. Just leave it be.

3) Uhmm... let's clarify. I think you are asking about stock firmware TWRP flashable zip, not stock KDZ? You can flash

US998 20F stock firmware flashable zip via TWRP

. It's the KDZ in TWRP flashable form. You do need to clear caches and re-flash Magisk before rebooting.

4) You can use Titanium Backup to freeze (recommended) or completely uninstall factory installed apps. In some cases you have to convert them from "system apps" to "user apps", then can remove them.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] sneak:
I was asking if I can avoid using TWRP and clearing cache by using the KDZ and flashing the latest OREO version via LGUP.

Right now though I'm stuck on the "No command" screen every time I try to get into TWRP.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
I don't understand that error message. You are not seeing the TWRP menu? You need TWRP. Maybe try to reinstall it? Be sure to swipe that you give it permission to be writable, to make changes to your system. Otherwise if you reboot without that, it's not really installed and you end back with stock recovery and you see the green android. I'm confused exactly what you are seeing.

Yes, you CAN install 20F the hard way -- through dev patched LGUP, but then you need to do exactly the same steps as before with the no root, no encryption files, and then Magisk. This is if you do not have TWRP installed.

Here's the change log for US99 20F.

No, it never boots to TWRP. I'll post a pic from my Nexus 5 of the screen for you.

TWRP was working fine and I haven't done anything on the phone besides confirm that root works. To flash TWRP I need to get access to that other computer or figure out why my computer can't see the phone when the phone is in it's bootloader. Unless there's some other way to install TWRP...

And okay, after I get TWRP working I'll be glad to use that to flash the latest Oreo version lol.

See attached picture of error. I can't get the camera to focus at all but the top thing is the typical green android with his compartment open and a red triangle symbol sticking out and the thing at the bottom is white text that says "No command"
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Yeah, you don't have TWRP installed on your phone. You've been booting to TWRP via the copy on your PC. Call it "temp" TWRP.

In the WTF INSTRUCTIONS, that's why there's a statement confirming TWRP is actually installed.

You're not the first this has happened with. Reinstall TWRP, boot to TWRP, make sure you've allowed it to be writable. Then rebooting TWRP from within TWRP menu.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] sneak:
Good point, I didn't even catch that.. I mean that I didn't catch the fact I was only ever using it with the "boot" command in ADB.

Well then for whatever reason, it was failing to flash TWRP to the phone.

I'm removing everything for Android from Device Manager and USBDEVIEW and I'll try installing things fresh for the V30+ only and see if I can access the phone via ADB during bootloader state. EDIT: Yeah, still won't access phone during bootloader from ADB.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] sneak:
RESOLVED issue not being able to see the phone from fastboot

First you must boot into bootloader with cable connected via ADB. Next you need to install the USB driver from Google, found here by right-clicking the Android entry with the warning symbol on it in the Device Manager and clicking "Update Driver Software" then "Browse my computer", "Let me pick..", "Show All Devices..." then "Have Disk" and select the INF file from the google drivers.

I still can't get the phone to boot with the NEW TWRP which I linked a few posts up in the log of my journey, but the version ChazzMat linked (TWRP-3.2.3-7-default.img) works fine.

I'm picking up in the WTF guide where you leave off after booting into TWRP and will do all that stuff over again. Oddly, it didn't give me the option to swipe to allow modifications this time on first boot but after rebooting to recovery once again (due to mount errors) it did present the option.

After booting into Android, Magisk app claimed it wasn't installed for some reason and offered a download of version 18, which I just flashed. I downloaded it and went back into recovery (this time "adb reboot recovery" is working properly) and flashed it from TWRP once again as well as no-verity-opt-encrypt and lg-rctd-disabler.

Now I reboot into system again and Magisks properly reports that it is installed. Funny because how did the app get there if I didn't flash anything? Obviously I did. SafetyNet check works again too.

So finally I'll backup Android 8.0 with TWRP, Magisk, RCTD disabler and no verity opt in it's stock state then proceed to flashing the latest Oreo version via TWRP.

EDIT: US99820f and Magisk 18 successfully flashed. Is there any changelog for these different versions of Android we're adding?

Yes, im on 5GHz AC 1900MBPS capable router. The better halfs iPhone XS Max gets ~450mbps.

I am responding to this thread to add the the latest 'F' build for the US998 has increased my download speed to 250mbps. So, it seems that this is software related on LGs end. I guess we are slowly improving.

See OP for pre-conversion Nougat benchmarks.

See attached images for post-conversion Oreo benchmarks.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] sneak:
I wonder why you're getting 250 Mbps but I'm getting 400+. You said your wife/gf gets about 450 so I guess you have the speed available. I still get 400+ on Oreo, just like on Nougat before converting the phone.

Maybe QoS is in effect and hurting the LG?

That's interesting.. I don't use screen protectors either... I decided to see what you had to say about them for this phone though and consider it....

Regarding notification link I did achieve it via Gravity Box but I can't get it to run at the same time as Flat Style Bar Indicators. However, I saw nothing that successfully increased volume steps.

Never found that NeoPowerMenu, probably because Xposed has a poor search functionality and I would have to know the plugin begins with "Neo" to find it because of that. I've configured it and it's working well, thanks.

I figured it was a "safety measure" to force the pattern on boot. I'm guessing it's in-case there's an issue with fingerprint reader and you forget the pattern because you never use it... but I don't care about that :).

I'm aware of AOD but I want the screen off like usual then only on temporarily for notifications.

Found V30 thread about disabling shutter sound and they recommended Camera Mute but when searching for that, every app requires you pay out of 10-15 I tried besides this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.juholic.nss&hl=en_US and that app works flawlessly.

I also tried the apps for the notification light thing and was also dissatisfied. I think I explained that in my original reply but I made these questions shorter and more direct.

Regarding the question you don't understand, I attached a screenshot to that post so you would understand. Please see that screenshot. I want the functionality from THAT, which is missing in Oreo.

Can't use Gravity Box and Flat Style Bar Indicators at the same time so I'll have to decide which features I want.

I'm just gonna stick with Gravity Box instead of Flat Style Bar Indicators since it's free and I can edit (to enough of an extent to be satisfied) the date/time, notification linking, battery indicator and more. I'm getting a lot in exchange for not being able to change the carrier text, which doesn't matter that much to me and I may figure out later anyways.

On #11, I was just tired last night after working 12 hours. This morning of course DND means Do Not Disturb. Last night my brain had no idea what that meant.

Yeah, I know what you are talking about. On my Moto Quark on Resurrection Remix, I could do the same. Do Not Disturb for X hours. I do miss that. For my wife right now, she shuts off her volume for certain work situations and then forgets to turn it back on. I have an app called Volume Control Plus (no longer in Google Play) that resets her volume for her at at a certain time or she would never do it. :) That has nothing to do with what you need, but my point is the feature you desire back is also desired by me. I know of no way to do that except through custom ROM right now.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] sneak:
Yeah, I don't understand why they removed that feature. I remember there was a bug where you couldn't use DND based on alarm time if it was the end of the month (or something like that) and would need to manually specify the hours in that case. I don't recall if that was ever fixed but I'd rather deal with that bug and have the feature than not have it at all.

This is the app with similar functionality: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=hu.gabornagy.dndtimer.free

You do have to run it separately but so far it's the closest thing I've found. I guess with Gravity Box you could put it in the quick panels (assuming this feature works, because some things don't seem to work and I haven't tested that yet).

I am not able to find any photos in QuickPic Gallery cloud app which I have backed app. There is almost 50GB+ and I am unable to view it. I am also trying to access from Web view but there is also nothing showing. I read one XDA thread saying that CM Cloud is taking down their server in April 2017 (but photos were backing up till last week i.e. 28th December 2018) and they informed users to restore their data. but last week I came to know about it and I also didn't get notification in QuickPic Gallery app about the same.
