It takes this long to upload? Or you're having issues...
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] otroguero:
Uploads are relatively quick. Waiting a year for lg, doing this outside of double shifts for free, and making sure that the upload won't brick a bunch of devices takes as much time as it takes. I'm as antsy as every other ls998 user, and LG first, and Sprint 2nd are the slowdown. Not developers.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
I was just referring to [MENTION=6815443]JohnFawkes[/MENTION] message 5hrs ago that it was uploading and might be live in 30 minutes, but s of now its still not there...perhaps something hit a snag in the upload
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] djpabz23:
Open dialer and type the following:

##72786#
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
What does that do?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
See here:

I also added that quote to the WTF instructions for Sprint users a couple of days ago.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
What is RCS?

Also, I thought I read that Sprint was going to change Caller Plus so that you couldnt browse and talk at same time...VOLTE seems to be just the same, correct?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
Yes, VoLTE is Voice over LTE. Initially LTE was data only. For phone calls you had to temporarily drop down to CDMA or HSPA/GSM , depending on the carrier you had.

HSPA/GSM is voice + data, so no problem.

Whereas, CDMA carriers had a problem as they couldn't do data and voice at the same time. This is why Verizon required OEMs to put TWO radios in flagship phones, before they got VoLTE. So users could have data plus voice at the same time.

I have no idea what this Caller Plus is, but sounds like some kind of work around for CDMA technical issue.

Verizon is killing CDMA by end of 2019. Don't know about Sprint.

LTE uses SIM cards and is part of the GSM/HSPA heirarchy. CDMA lost the battle. Every CDMA carrier that uses LTE is basically a hybrid carrier until they ditch CDMA. VERIZON us doing that end of this year.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Caller Plus was Sprint's WIFI Calling option before this update....
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
Then it has nothing to do with VoLTE. Every major carrier also has WiFi calling.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Lurien:
Calling plus is in fact Lte and voice call simultaneously.. I've used it before.. not the same as WiFi calling..
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Correct....and I was referring to a warning I received on my phone last month that it was going to be terminated and that you couldnt do it anymore if you updated.....something like that

BUt now we have VoLTE which seems better anyway, so I am confused as to why we got that warning
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
I said I knew nothing about it and was replying to the information given by a Sprint customer. Talk to him. ;)

Resets your network settings and goes through the activation process again making it possible to regain LTE
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Lurien:
It's cool. I just wanted to clarify.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Lurien:
Did you try the suggested dialer code? Did it solve your lte issue??
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Yes I did. Thanks. Not sure if it helped or not as I want even sure if it was just my area.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Lurien:
So your lte is working now?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Yes, I was just getting 3g at first but then it fixed ayway
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Lurien:
Great to know. I'm thinking about dirty flashing but I haven't flashed anything in a while so I'm hesitant..
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] syndre:
1) go into about phone - system updates - then update PRL followed by update network profile.

2) if that doesn't fix anything, make sure the stock dialer is the default,like, open the phone and dial ##72786#

the phone will reboot by itself, after it comes back repeat #1

That should get you back on LTE and let you start using VoLTE
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Anyone notice with this new FW we always get a pull down status bar nag about choosing which device to use for Bluetooth audio etc? I only used to see it when headphones are plugged in

Now I get it for any Bluetooth connection
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] SilverZero:
I have always had that notification.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
He's trying to do it in between a crazy work schedule.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] otroguero:
I agree with your assumption. Here's the thing, he'll update all links when it's ready. Unless we're helping troubleshoot, we're taking them away from building 30a to keep answering the same question. It'll be ready when John posts an update saying it's "live." 30 minutes from 5 hrs ago was optimistic, not a deadline to users. I'm not trying to be critical. I'm saying that rushing firmware is the number one way to ruin firmware and developers. We know why it's not live - it's not ready. John is a workhorse. I don't want to lose a great dev. Ask anyone who's been around for a few devices, we're lucky and this is completely normal.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Nobody was complaining....try not to read something negative into everything. If you scroll up to the last week or so you should see that.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
FYI: LS998 30a is still Oreo. Stated and discussed a few pages back. Sprint's screwed up method of numbering -- which LG allows them to do.

All other V30 variants start new decade of numbers with new OS: 10, 20, 30. Sprint even did that with Nougat (10) and Oreo (20) -- but will not with Pie.

LS998 "30a" is merely the most recent Oreo update.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] otroguero:
I know. I meant in a general way that we should have had this update ages ago, not even considering pie. Delivering another Oreo now is a year past due and almost an insult. It's weird. You get my point tho, nagging doesn't make builds more successful and it wears devs out
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
Understood.

I was just afraid you were referring to Pie. Just wanted to clarify. I'm sure others coming into to these will see "30a" in the title and assume Pie (which they should, except for Sprint's deviation from the norm).

All my Pie KDZ threads with TWRP flashable zips are numbered "30".
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] WhiteWidows:
Apologies. I assumed you wouldn't change the op title or post a link until it was ready.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
sorry guys i had to cancel the upload. i had a family emergency and i didnt need to upload a build and then get bombarbed with trying to play support IF things went awry and someones device got messed up (i dont think it would but you never know). Anyway it still stands that once i post in here that the upload is ready, then you are to assume that its not uploaded yet. hopefully by tonight ill have it ready. Im now out of state but i can teamviewer into my PC at anytime to do the upload. sorry guys
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] fitwright:
No apologies needed JohnFawkes. Geez, emergencies always take precedence, especially family ones. The flippin' build can wait till you are good and ready to upload. NO PRESSURE!
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
actually 30a has august security patch which means it only came out about 2 weeks ago. 28a and 29a were months ago. so 30a shouldnt of been ages ago
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] otroguero:
I understand what patches they are delivering. I shouldn't speak philosophically in a technical forum. Ls998 users bought a flagship phone expecting flagship updates. 30a is recent, but not current with same year models or even other v30s by an entire Android version. Was suggesting that the impatience has a less to do with 30a, and nothing to do with you, than with the LG update center and it's absolute failure to deliver.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
Ok. I need one tester. worst case scenario you'll need to do a full backup first and then restore the full backup. and by full backup i mean checking everything possible in twrp backup. ive been having a weird issue with flashing 30a zip where apps crash and my launcher goes back to stock nd i lose all my call logs, texts etc etc. its weird. anyway i need someone to test to make sure its not just from me flashing so much (ive flashed between 27a and 30a at least 200 times in the past week). So first person to reply to this message will be that tester. Thanks guys
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
I'll do it
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
I'll PM you the MEGA link as soon as its uploaded
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
John is it normal for the most recent baseband to be retained when flashing back and forth?

Mine still has the baseband from 30a from me flashing another devs devloated Rom... And even after dirty flashing 27a and then even restoring... I still have it.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
PM sent
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
Okay, can't get a system image backup though. It fails in TWRP every time. Regular backups work fine. Should I be concerned? Or just an extra precaution?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
Nah that's fine. As long as system is backed up. System and system image are the same. Also after flashing, if it boots but your launcher is changed and no text messages etc etc then just boot to twrp and flash your data backup only. Also do not flash any zip other than the 30a zip. Magisk is already pre installed

Also another thing I noticed is that some apps require me to sign out and sign back in before they work again
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
Gotcha. I have TB, SMS BACKUP, TWRP. Off now from classes for an hour and a half so I should know soon. 33% downloaded.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
Nice thats what i use to do backups. TB and super backup i run on a daily schedule to auto backup to external sdcard and then send backups to my gmail
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
30a is great. Getting very good coverage. Noticed some dead zones I regularly drive through less dead
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
30a is now live guys. Please Read the Entire OP Again. Especially The Notes Section. THINGS HAVE CHANGED! DO NOT INSTALL MAGISK, RCTD REMOVER or FORCEENCRYPT ZIPS! CANARY MAGISK IS BUILT IN NOW!
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
so those spots you talked about, you got signal?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
I did. I know where they are because I drive through them every week twice on Tuesday and twice on Thursday. They're near DFW airport for the most part. The problem varied from buffering to a complete disconnecting of the streaming app. Last night it was almost gone with one exception where it buffered for about a half mile area. That's one interruption compared to the usual 4 in a thirty mile drive.

Also seeing one more options for smart unlock. Voice unlock wasn't there before.

And because I debloated months ago by root explorer; even though that didn't cause problems on 27a, it did cause crashing on 30a when apps like Google play music and all Amazon got replaced. That is resolved too simply way - frozen by TB. Overall so far very good update.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
How do we find MD5's on your most current ones? They just download automatically...

Also: What is the G-DEC 1.0.6 system app I see? Something new regarding sound?

[MENTION=6815443]JohnFawkes[/MENTION]

Ended up trying a complete wipe (not internal SD) and dont have root. Magisk Manager keeps crashing...
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
Did you read the OP and read the Notes section?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Yes.....did I miss something? Did FReset....just with Swype option. Was that it? Should I have then wiped system is it not included in Slider option on TWRP??
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
NOTES

Please make a full twrp backup in case anything goes wrong. if after installing you lose your texts or your launcher changes back to the default stock launcher or some other weird bug like that, restoring just your DATA backup will fix it. If after flashing 30a you experience random reboots immediately after booting, DO NOT worry. This same thing happened to me and i believe that its just finishing the update with sprint. When this happened to me, I could see the Finishing Update notification in the pull down. My device rebooted about 3 times and in some cases became extremely laggy and i had to force reboot by holding vol up and power button . After the 3rd boot everything settled down and became stable and no reboots since.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Lurien:
I think it's supposed to be dirty flashed. I could be wrong.. haven't had time to backup and try flashing it yet.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
I haven't cleaned flashed yet but what I'm trying to tell him is he needed to do a backup and restore his data since he is having an issue. If the restore doesn't fix magisk crashing, clearing its app data or uninstalling and reinstalling should fix it
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Lurien:
Ok, got it.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] fitwright:
Magisk kept crashing for me as well on clean flash. Tried clearing data but didn't work. So I just uninstalled, re-installed a version I had on my sd card and then updated to current Magisk Manager. All set now.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Yep read all that....I havent had the issues you said to include in restoring Data so was asking first as I would rather go clean....
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
I highly recommend using the canary magisk as it stops the losing root issue among a few other fixes. Even allows you to pick a folder to save your zips in. You can get it here

https://github.com/topjohnwu/magisk_files/blob/master/canary_builds/magisk-debug.zip
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] fitwright:
Thanks John.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
on my device? LOL

---------- Post added at 02:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:32 PM ----------

I remember you said canary stopped the lost root in totally anxious thread but to tell you the truth it didn't help my device on 27a. It did stop now on 30a.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
I did the same (cleared cache didnt work on MM, but a reinstall did)....unless I am misunderstanding your rec just deleting and reinstalling magisk manager kept us on Canary right?

---------- Post added at 05:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:07 PM ----------

It was there in 27a
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
If it was there on 27a on MY device I wouldn't post that it showed up on 30a. I know what was there and what wasn't. I think we know these devices are somehow not all exactly the same. I was getting software version US99827a no matter what I did to change it. And I tried everything. Now it's getting software version LS99830a. That's a first too.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Dood relax. It was there on 27a...THIS threads 27a. Wasnt saying it was on your phone. But it's not new.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] zomgalama:
Dirty flashed over 27a and did a dalvik/cache wipe and didn't get any issues with reboots/slowdowns and magisk seems to be working fine (did as notes said, don't flash magisk). Thanks for the rom! Fingers crossed for no random reboots (was getting random reboots every now and then on a clean flashed 27a, will try clean flashing 30a if I notice random reboots occurring again; might be hardware on my end though since my fingerprint reader rarely doesn't work regardless of which stock rom I'm using so it seems something is messed up inside)

I was curious if it is possible to enable fastboot on sprint firmware?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
No.

Of the North American variants, only US998 has fastboot flash commands.

But once you have TWRP installed, you don't really need fastboot. You can install all kinds of Magisk and edXposed modules via TWRP.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
You win
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Lurien:
I just flashed successfully with the same results. I also wiped caches after flashing rom. No issues so far..

---------- Post added at 02:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:06 AM ----------

You guys perform prl/profile update after flashing Rom??
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnRogers23:
This is exactly my experience, down to the random reboots (usually when unlocking screen) on 27 and the fingerprint reader being sketchy. No random reboots on 30 but the fingerprint reader is still weird. I assumed it was hardware.

Flashing went fine, cleared cache after and everything is working great.

I've not done a PRL or profile update, although I did PRL not long before flashing. Reception has also seemed better in most of my problem areas.

Thanks a bunch, JohnFawkes.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
if your on magisk 19.4 then your on canary
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
Glad everything is going good. had me worried a little bit when i kept having issues but i really do think it was from all the flashes i did trying to get it to boot which ended up being something with the boot img
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
[MENTION=6815443]JohnFawkes[/MENTION]

Magisk Man is asking us to update to 7.3.4 and also to Magisk 19.4

Advice?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
Yes update. It's the latest beta
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
So it's a Canary update? I was Def having root issues before 30a and Canary and this is real stable...
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
I have a feeling I and maybe others installed the wrong Magisk Manager when it crashed in us. I did not know we need to have the Canary version? I then updated to 19.4 which I think is non canary

I noticed things wacky right after that as I can only send a group text but not a solo text... Odd

I deleted Magisk Manager... Installed Canary MM and then it updated me down to the 19.4 19039 build

Do I need to do more? My texts are still broken all beit I am doing them over WiFi Calling as I have no cell service where I am right now

Update: odd

On wifi calling... As I don't have cell service right now... I can get calls make calls get sms and send out MMS. BUT I cannot send SMS? Ideas?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
Beta and canary are not the same thing. Canary is live github changes. Canary is like an alpha build
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Still doesn't explain what we should be on... I did complete install and fixed my issues... But are we supposed to be installing canary MM or regular...MM crashes each time I've done it... So others might run into this too

I installed Canary MM and all is good... But you've confused me on beta... As the issue might have happened when I installed regular MM and then updated to 19.4 which caused issues
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Lurien:
Magisk is included in the 30A rom. There is no need to flash separately. He put it in the instructions. Just flash Rom and that's it.. I'm my case I wiped both caches immediately after flashing rom and didn't get any issues.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
Yes I know that but if you read some of us still had issues with MM crashing and had to reinstall it.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] WhiteWidows:
Only issue I have is showing all battery use chashes. Anyone else?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
After updating magisk I lost root overnight. Reinstalled 19.4 and fingers crossed it's not the root losing issue all over again.

Update: all my Tasker shortcuts on my home screen broke after reinstalling magisk. At that point I decided to restore my TWRP BACKUP of 30a which I made before updating magisk. I'm not going to update it for now.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
I am now having the SMS issue again.... Complete fresh install... Back in major city and can't send out any texts..

Flashing back to 27a seems to solve issue.. I'm lost here...

UPDATE [MENTION=6815443]JohnFawkes[/MENTION]

I think I have found out something that has helped my fresh install to work. I am crossing my fingers but it seems to have solved all of my issues. But the caveat is everything seemed fine for 5 or 6 hours before I lost SMS functioning. I will share this tomorrow if John is OK with it... Nothing super drastic bit familiar for all of us old School flashers moving to New Roms
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
I still have zero issues. I don't understand why you guys are. The no root issue is likely because your updating to the beta and not staying on canary. As for sms issues I have no clue
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] cityneversleepz:
Glad I made a backup before updating Magisk. I guess it was beta. Everything back to normal now.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
One of the issues comes from MM crashing and then us having to reinstall it. If you dont install the proper Canary MM then you get the option to update to 19.4 but not the canary one.

I think you should put that in the OP. Also I asked you about updating and you said yes but now youre saying we shouldnt update to Beta....so there is some confusion.

What I did yesterday was the only way I have a smooth phone working, but I still had app crashes on MM from 30a but installed the proper Canary MM
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Lurien:
Only issue I ran into once was the no root bug. Other than that everything has worked perfectly since flashing 30A. I've noticed that it's been very snappy and smooth all around. Also seems to have better reception. No compliants so far.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] :
All was fine.... After formatting internal SD... Then the minute I updated Magisk... Boom... Cant send out SMS.... Wtf? Using mosr recent for whatever this is... I AM SO CONFUSED on the difference between Canary and regular... But something keeps messing with me here
