I actually found out where the error of this guide is.

Flashing modem.bin is what caused RSA errors as it needs to match the firm.

I would just remove modem.bin from the guide and you're perfect.

Modem gets flashed whether we use 20i kdz or custom rom.

(Also explains how I fixed my RSA problems with the TWRP zip)

I think the important things are the rest you have posted as also clouds instructions are what had helped me in the past. (No errors.)

It also removes the need for a custom kernel for pie roms as when I read your section about them stuttering that wasn't true (most are stock or stock modified; not speaking custom like lunar) when I had used pie roms with their packaged kernels before. (In the case of NOT using modem.bin)

Also not saying there is anything wrong with lunar it's a sweet kernel; just love having options. :)

Apologies for continuously editing this but I've also got a source from here on XDA that modem.bin should never be cross-flashed etc.

https://xdaforums.com/lg-v30/how-to/using-lgup-crossflashing-t3780969/post76319892 was a write-up from [MENTION=3167089]runningnak3d[/MENTION].

also thought I should add there is a carrier.image that is also dumped while not being dependent on RSA.

i'm going to try it as well as i'm re rooting tonight but maybe someone on bell (or anything that's not chatR BUT on h993) can see if carrier.image has something to do with your APN settings.

For anyone flashing custom ROMs and having soft reboots and assuming it's because of this method; I think it's mainly because all the custom ROMs have DTS from other stock kdz now and we don't have it in h933 yet.

Edit - swap modem.bin for carrier.bin and see what happens. I'm currently using my phone perfectly. 20i kdz rooted with TWRP. ((That's why I wanna hear what's up with other carriers)) also for your magisk instructions on final H933 you should put the open magisk manager and reboot before using adb shell. Or else Su won't work because you're not rooted first. :P

I'll stop spamming now haha enjoy your weekend fellow v30 users!

Hey,

I need some help. I was on H933 with bootloader unlocked (no TWRP, no Magisk) and I proceeded to flash US998(20h) to gain Fastboot. After flashing, however, the ROM boots up and sends me to the setup page and after 20seconds or so it shutsdown.

So I am stuck in a loop of endlessly trying to setup my phone only for it to shutdown. I tried to flash US998(20h) again as I can still access download mode. I tried using both 'UPGRADE' and 'PARTITION DL' but I still am stuck in the same scenario.

Any Ideas on whats happening? Please help.

---------- Post added at 07:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:57 PM ----------

Update: I solved it by using PARTITION DL to flash US998(10d) Nougat . Just setup the device, I am now going to try and flash US998(20h) Oreo and hopefully in the end end up with a V30 running AOSP.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Yeah, you need to follow the Frankenstein Instructions to change from stock H933 firmware to stock US998.

What you described it exactly what happens if you don't follow the instructions. ;)

For H933 you'll need to Partition DL on both Nougat and Oreo stages.

Hey,

I am running Havoc (might switch to LiquidRemix soon) on my V30 (H933) now and just wondering if anyone else here has abysmal battery life on AOSP roms. I know this has been discussed in the past, but just wondering if there has been a breakthrough regarding this subject.

M'y mobile data didn't work even with the step 9. I can call or send SMS , but I cannot go on Internet or Play Store with mobile data.

I'm on a custom ROM Pixel Experience, but even with the stock ROM H933 20i I've got the same problem.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Night_1:
For myself... Every flash I did with my sim card out... Then when I went to setup the phone I put the sim card back in when it prompted me to... That worked for me....

If I flashed with the sim card in then I would not have data

I would have phone and sms... But no data
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] AxelR11:
I've tried to do what you say, but it didn't work. I've wipe my V30 and reinstall my custom ROM Pixel Experience. Then I have do the basic setup of the ROM without my SIM card and I've put it in my phone after. Sadly, again, I can call and send SMS, but no mobile data..

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] bundys:
I would like to run H933 software on my frankenstein bootloader unlocked originally V30+ LS998 so that I can get Freedom Mobile VoWiFi working as my cell phone reception in my house is atrocious.

So I tried following the steps in post #1 and everything works great until the end of step #5. Instead of rebooting into TWRP, the phone boots up normally into android welcome screen. And YES, I did make sure to UNCHECK recovery when flashing the H933 kzd back. I've done this twice now with same results. When I try booting into recovery, it says "no file" with a sleeping android laying there.

After a couple of failures, I even tried modifying step #3 in flashing the US99810c kzd first, then master reset, then DOWNLOAD DL US99820a kzd, another master reset. Redid steps 4 & 5 and at the end of step 5 instead of booting into TWRP, it goes back into the android welcome screen.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Which version of twrp are you trying to use? I recommend the one from the WTF thread (3.2.3-7 I think it is) ... Along with the recommended magisk from WTF... You can always update later...

Yes, I'm using the same version of TWRP. I don't even get to the part when I can flash magisk as that's part of step 6 which I can't get to.

Actually TWRP stuck after flashing it as I was able to boot into it a couple of times before attempting to DOWNLOAD DL the H933 kdz. It's the DOWNLOAD DL action that seems to be wiping the recovery partition even though I deselect restoring it in LGUP.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] bundys:
So this is driving me CRAZY! I've tried about 10 slightly "tweaked" procedures to get a rooted/TWRP enabled H993 from an original LS998 V30+, but every single time at the end of step #5 instead of rebooting into TWRP, the phone reboots into Android setup not allowing me to flash any of the necessary images. I had no issues converting the phone to a US998 with root and TWRP, but after flashing the H933 kzd (omitting recovery and even recoverybak partitions), instead of booting into TWRP, it goes into android setup. When the phone is still on US99820a, I have no issues booting into TWRP recovery, so I know that's flashed correctly. Please, please, please someone knowledgeable help me!
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Hawk84r:
Second that. Just tried do follow this guide and arrived at exactly same result. Be very good if someone would butt in on that. Coming from H933 frankenstained into LS998 and than H930. Also, I don't loose mobile data at all at any step, maybe it is somehow relevant.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Why would you try to convert your former Canada H933 to EU H930 stock firmware? Do you think that somehow flashing stock H930 firmware has anything to do with running "H930" LOS custom ROMs? It's doesn't. Trying to flash EU H930 firmware onto North American variant like H933 is not recommended.

I also doubt you Frankenstein converted your Canada H933 to Sprint LS998. Sprint doesn't release public KDZ.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Hawk84r:
Finally did it!

Indeed, typo on my end - it's US998. And yes, flashing H930 ROM was not so good idea. As going to PIE in general. Had no problems using it as daily driver thou. Until it started to lag as ****, that is :D

So, after DAYS of flashing and reading various guides, I figured out how to go back to H933 keeping root and flashing AOSP (in my case - LineageOS 16) without it bootlooping. Here it is:

(if you are

properly

Frankensteined to oreo US998 - skip to step 4)

(! if you didn't do step 1-2 of current guide - you might want to do that before starting !)

1. Partition DL to H933 10h from whatever you are, master reset if see flickering robo; (step might not be necessary)

Now on with Frankenstaining ;)

2. Partition DL to US998 10d;

3. Partition DL to US998 20h;

Next steps inspired by this guide.

4. Flash recovery via Fastboot (remove cable, turn off, hold Vol-, insert cable while holding);

5. Boot recovery, allow modification. DO NOT WIPE - PROBABLY IMPORTANT (did not test with wiping to confirm, but as I always wiped before as per current guide...);

6. Partition DL to H933 10h, uncheck recovery. Going strait to Oreo will wipe recovery. Or I think it will.

Now, unlike what is written in current guide, it WILL NEVER boot to TWRP. So we need to help it - hold Vol- and Power until restarted, when you see LG logo - release and hold again Power until reset screen, release both at the same time. Chose yes with Vol, confirm with Power.

7. Partition DL to H933 Oreo (I used 20i), uncheck recovery. Enter manually again, allow modification.

Now you can follow current guide from step 6 as it is.

When you on AOSP, you gonna notice that something is wrong - not all sensors working, apps like Tasker or YouTube magically stuck at loading, Camera FC's. That's because we was stupid enough to flash PIE. Now we cursed to use permissive kernel on Oreo blobs based ROMs, like LOS16 (LOS17 still has a long way from being daily driver). Solution is in here, no credit to me anyhow. Being discontinued, it doesn't even trip SafetyNET (GPay working). Makes you wonder why perfectly good module was dumped for something that doesn't actually work o_o

Also found that it may take several reboots before LOS will actually start booting, and after installing some modules you might want to wipe Dalvik.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
BACK ON OREO AFTER PIE

Well, I've tried to warn people. ;). It's noted in every Pie KDZ thread I maintain as well as the

Root Sticky Guide

(mentioned in post #1 and #2). Post #2 -- ADVICE ON CUSTOM ROMS -- is even linked in the WTF Instructions.

The rest of this is not for you but for anyone else reading this...

____

LOS-17 (Android 10/Q) -based custom ROMs are an

unfinished work in progress

. The problems will eventually be solved, but if you want stable ROMs right now, that's LOS-16.

AND that means NOT even temporarily upgrading to stock Pie.

1) With V30 stock Pie, there's nothing really different from stock Oreo. The look is the same, the camera is the same. Pie isn't any faster nor have better battery life than last Oreo. All it does is permanently degrade your ability to run LOS-16 custom ROMs and even some stuff on stock Oreo firmware when you try to downgrade back.

2) Because if you don't intend to run stock Pie as your default daily driver why are you updating?

If your whole intention is to run custom ROMs, stay on Oreo for now. Updating to Pie, then downgrading still permanently changes your phone.

The ONLY REASONS people are updating to Pie are:

1) See any differences from stock Oreo. There are no visible differences.

2) You HAVE to to update to stock Pie before they can try LOS-17 ROMs. Then they quickly find out stuff like Wi-Fi doesn't work, etc.

But you can't run LOS-16 ROMS from stock Pie, so you have to downgrade back to Oreo. However, now you have problems on Oreo you didn't have before. Permanent issues.

Even me, who doesn't run custom ROMs -- who runs rooted stock firmware with Nova launcher, custom icon pack, Magisk and Xposed mods -- has stayed on Oreo for my main daily phone.

I see no reason to update to Pie and have stuff like Shortcut Master not work for me. My Oreo Totally Anxious Magisk module with dual speaker, forced HIM, and G7/V40 camera features works quite well.

Eventually stock Pie will improve and add more features (I hope) and LOS-17 ROMs will greatly improve.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] cloud1250000:
Any reason why you converted your ls998+ to h933 just to install LOS? why not stay with the us998?

My ls998 also never rebooted to twrp.. and if you let it boot.. it would replace the damn recovery back.. without actually booting.. so I did just like you.. after Partition DL of oreo.. I made sure it booted first in the recovery.. otherwise you would need to start over to get back twrp in the recovery lol

Mostly followed this : https://xdaforums.com/lg-v30/how-to/guide-us988-oreo-to-h933-pie-stock-rom-t3978121

But between 4 and 5, you need to make sure you boot to the recovery.. so what you said :

Now, unlike what is written in current guide, it WILL NEVER boot to TWRP. So we need to help it - hold Vol- and Power until restarted, when you see LG logo - release and hold again Power until reset screen, release both at the same time. Chose yes with Vol, confirm with Power.

my original h933 didnt behave like this but w/e :p

Also, unsure if you tried stock system.. but I never managed to get lte to work properly until recently.. but lte+ seems to be broken...

Edit.. nvm your phone is a regular h933 :s

What's your reason to go to H933? Data is likely not going to work.. if you could try stock h933 and see if data is working after a couple of reboot you might be lucky.. anyway following Hawk84r guide will help you get h933 on your phone ;)
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] bundys:
Why would data not work on my H933? The times I flashed a stock H933, data worked fine (I just couldn't get it in a rooted state, which is something I badly want). Also, the main plan behind changing my LS998 to H933 is to get VoWiFi working with Freedom Mobile (Shaw). I have terrible reception in my house (50% of time no bars), so VoWiFi is my only solution and flashing H933 rom is the only way I can think of getting it to work.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] cloud1250000:
No clue why the data would stop working, but I've only tested with 3 ls998+.. you might be more lucky then me lool

I do have one ls998+ converted to a rooted h933 pie. So it's doable ;)

But I had problem with data so maybe my steps are wrong lool
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Do you mean no data just with Canadian carriers?

Because before WTF and the need to get on USS98 for fastboot flash commands, H933 was very popular for people around the world to SIM card unlock the LS998 V30+. Before we realized what Frankenstein became here on XDA, we saw strange H933 "V30+" cropping up online (which doesn't exist in nature).

Even now with people having problems updating to U998 Pie, one workaround (if you don't care about bootloader unlock) is to convert North American variant to H933 and flash H933 Pie KDZ...

Those users have no problem with data -- at least that they've reported. These are people in other countries around the world. For instance, H933 has LTE band 8 where USS98 doesn't.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] cloud1250000:
Oh yeah it was to connect to bell LTE basically.. it would always break after a reboot lol also I can't connect to LTE+ right now lool

I wish people who converted the ls 998+ originally could share how they did lol

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] bundys:
Could you explain step 6 in a little more detail as I followed it but still ended up not getting TWRP to stick.

These were my steps from step 6 onwards (please correct where I went wrong).

1. LG UP DL H93310h ROM (unchecking recovery partition).

2. When LG UP was done, the phone rebooted with usb cable still plugged in.

3. I didn't let it boot into the ROM, but instead held Vol- and PWR until the LG v30 logo, then let go of power, pressed and held it again until data reset screen.

4. Selected Yes on the following three screens and after that let the phone boot.

5. This is where I expected TWRP to boot up, but instead it went into the ROM.

6. I continued into the ROM, went through minimum steps to get into ROM, turned on ADB and shut down the phone and unplugged the phone.

7. Vol+ and plugged in cable to get into flashing mode and LG UP - DL UP'd H93320i ROM (unchecked recovery partition).

8. Followed the same steps as above, but didn't get into TWRP in any of the steps above.

It seems that I'm missing some sort of step at the end of flashing the initial H93310h ROM because I can't get into TWRP.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] cloud1250000:
If you follow the other guide I linked.. after using lg up to partition DL.. the phone should reboot by itself.. Dont let it boot anything else then the recovery... Use the master reset manipulation to make sure it's booting straight to it... This is right after step 4.. if you don't get to twrp after that partition DL. You have to start over lol (because the first thing the system does when booting is replacing the recovery back)

As soon as you get in twrp, replace laf with twrp and proceed with the rest of the guide
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] bundys:
So I FINALLY managed to get a rooted H933 ROM onto my originally LS998. Here's what I did.

I followed the steps in the original post, but at the end of step 5, instead of waiting to reboot to TWRP (which the phone will never do) you have to do as follows: When the LG UP software is just about finished and (THIS IS KEY) as soon as the screen goes off on the phone, you have to press and hold Vol- and PWR. Then when the LG boot logo appears, momentarily (1 sec) release the Power button and then press it and hold again. After a little bit you will be asked if you want to reset your phone, in which case let go of the buttons and select "Yes" or "OK" all 3 times. The phone will then boot into TWRP and you will want to swipe to allow modifications. I originally installed a 10 series H933 ROM. If you wish to upgrade to a 20 series, you can shut down the phone through TWRP menus and then use the Vol+ and Plug in USB cable trick to get back into flashing mode without having to boot up the OS. Again, you will need to do the "reset" trick to get into TWRP at the end of the flash, otherwise your recovery partition will be overwritten.

If I want to install LOS 17 ROMs do I still use the original Nougat US998 kdz and H933 Oreo kds linked in the steps, or do I use the latest PIE kdzs available for each?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Before you can install any LOS-17 ROMs you need LG Pie stock firmware blobs (drivers). There are various ways of doing that.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] shatteredfusion:
I have a stock pie kdz installed already on my H933 so I should already have the pie blobs. But LOS-17 ROMs are still boot-looping when I try to flash them, so I figured I need to use this guide to partition the kdz to get AOSP ROMs working. I'm just not sure if I should use the Nougat US998 kdz and and Oreo H933 Kdz as specified as the guide is for flashing Pie AOSP Roms onto Oreo stock kdz. I don't know if I can flash LOS-17 onto that Oreo stock H933 kdz, so I'm wondering if the new stock Pie kdzs will still work with the guide and let me flash LOS-17.
[Samsung Gear S3] Hal3246:
I was someone who was dealing with the battery drain issue. I would lose roughly 10% to 20% an hr. Then after several reboots and factory restores on 3.0.0.2, it just started acting normal again like it was when I got it for Christmas 2018. Then the Tizen 4 update release and I updated. I was right back in that odd battery drain. Except that it was worse. Again after several reboots and factory restores, there was one thing that stuck out. I did not give permissions to Customization Services, or whatever it is. It kept popping up asking for permissions until I denied and checked do not ask again. Now my watch is lasting a few days. I went onto my 3rd day at 47% left and charged it. Last time I gave that service permission, my battery went to hell again.:rolleyes::crying::confused:

To test, I gave it permission through options and saw the issue return. I then denied permission again and rebooted the watch. Not having the issue.

Anyone else having battery issues, try denying permission to the customization services and do not repeat. Hopefully that'll work. This is only for Tizen 4. Not sure if you can deny permission on Tizen 3.:confused:

I'm getting the other regular uses such as the 10 minute interval heart rate, sleep monitoring, steps, all the other stuff and it's definitely lasting more then 36 hrs. I just don't have the Wake up gesture or bezel wake up on.

Been using Dex mode the last couple days and there is a couple things I find really annoying. One is when I'm texting, hitting enter doesn't send a text message, it just acts as the return key in samsung messages and the default android messages app. I can change my messaging app to the facebook messenger which hitting enter does work but it is kind of terrible looking in dex mode and I'm not a fan of involving facebook in my messages if I don't have to. and Two, for whatever reason my chrome window will dim and will not brighten back up, I can have it up and get a text message that pulls up and after I reply and close the messaging app chrome is noticeably dimmed, the samsung internet browser doesn't do this but I prefer chrome since all my stuff is saved and tied to it.

Does anyone know how to make my physical keyboard send messages with the enter key in the default Samsung messages app? I can't find anywhere to map keys and it gets old having to click a send button all the time.

Does anyone else's chrome dim when switching between apps in dex but never brighten back to normal? Been using the samsung browser but it isn't my favorite.

Does anyone have any good app options to use in dex? Video/Audio/Photo editors, media players, Spreadsheet/Docs/Presentation software, and anything else you can think of that might be useful.

Currently using sheets/docs from google, vlc media player, and the photoshop collage maker app for pictures.

Basically I can get by my daily work routines with a decent app to perform these few functions. (video editing/photo editing, spreadsheets, documents, presentations, and a good media player that can use subtitles.) And if I can accomplish this in dex I could solve a lot of problems without having to go run around and retrieve my laptop or be forced to carry it with me 100% of the time.
