[LG V35 Questions & Answers] impossibility8000:
strange, i'm doing the same method with my $10 AT&T prepaid card and it does check for updates, but it says no new update is available. It worked previously when i updated it earlier in June, updating from the December 1, 2018 to the April 1, 2019 updates though.

I got red pocket sim card, activated account, unlocked phone, but still can not update it. What's a trick?
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] idntknoyunw:
Got new phone yesterday awm unlocked manufacture date September 2018 and started off pretty much put my AT&T SIM card in along with existing SD card from my v20. Took a look at the software and it was? Something n clicked on the update and it began to download and took quite a while as I was watching it up in the taskbar. Went through that same process 3 * and it took a while for each one to download and load onto the phone then on the 4th update completed that and check the software and I was on pie.
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] impossibility8000:
i'm at the point of giving up, no matter how many times i tried to update the phone skipping the days, it keeps saying that its up to date even though its at android 8. its a $10 prepaid AT&T card. it worked previously with the same method, but now its like AT&T shadowbanned me from updating my phone, i still get service and the data connection even shows 5Ge.
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] redamaleki:
I was able to get mine to update using a Tracfone sim while on wifi. Just had to keep jumping around on the date. When it did start to update, the "Check Update" changed to "Continue Update" without any other status indicator. Once I got that, I just switched Date/Time back to Auto, and it finished updating.

Initial impressions with Android 9 on the V35: It is exactly like Android 8 on the V35, with same crappy LG Skin. No major differences or improvements. Camera performance still pales in comparison to the Pixel 3a. Battery seems to wear down faster. Course after reviewing changes from Android 8 to 9 in general, there was nothing that really stood out. The best update I've done is adding the Nova Launcher to get the round icons.

Will thisxwork for the unlocked model from Google Fi? Then pop the Fi Sim back in?
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] FIREFIGHT100:
So I just received my Sim card kit from att. $1.06 fedexed to my house, .25 cents a minute plan. I got a new number too. I did not activate the plan or put up any money. Installed it and chked for updates, none. Let the phone sit and within 10 mins an update appeared. Did that one and now just letting it sit overnight to hopefully get more. No Pie yet?
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] ArcaStor:
No need to wait between updates

You can manually perform each update sequentially, no need to wait. See my May 6th post in this thread detailing my experience with several of the updates ...

I've since got the Pie update on the first day AT&T released it using this same method. Good luck!
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] paintflinger:
Is the ATT prepaid SIM card trick still working for anyone? Just purchased an ATT unlocked on amazon and inserted the ATT sim. I cannot seem to get the update to trigger.

Edit - Performed a factory reset with the ATT sim inserted. Updates triggered and running.

I know I'm late to the show but I wanted to chime in.

I'm a cricket customer and I have NEVER received OTA update. I've always had to rely on a friend sending me his att sim card.

Thank you. Yes, others later in the thread have also confirmed the same:
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] hero913:
I have a spare att sim card. Anyone know how to activate the 25 cents plan on it?

When I go through the activation process, I only get the monthly options.
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] bossgai:
Instead of entering the 15 digit imei of your device when activating your at&t sim card, type in 15 zeros instead (e.g 000000000000000). Entering your phone's imei will make at&t only show what plans they think are best catered to your device. Entering 15 zeros will allow you to get bypass the monthly selection plans and finish your account creation. After that, within your new at&t account, select "plans" tab and select the plan you want, but this time it will show you all the available plans to choose from.
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] Patxperia:
I am in UK, thinking of buying AT&T LV-350. It's carrier unlocked but presumably bootloader locked.

Can I activate a at&t SIM in UK if I can get one?

Edit just read that only a att international SIM can work outside USA. Those are quite expensive so it's worth following the instructions to rebrand my phone,or crossflash it.

I'll keep reading the threads
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] SamOntario:
Did not work

Bought the AT&T Prepaid sim. Inserted into my LM-V350AWN. Immediately required activation! Did not activate. Left sim for more than 24 hours. Screen was on the activation page and nothing was updated.
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] draexo:
AT&T released Pie on 9/1/19. I still can not get it. I have an AT&T phone with AT&T service. Even did a full restore. Then I found this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDE515B9XAc

I am willing to try this. Has anyone else tried this?
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] mrviper100:
This worked for me also! I was using an active AT&T SIM card. (If that makes a difference.)
[Nokia 8.1 Questions & Answers] WindyLZY:
I have seriously considered this issue.

People who have visited this page, I believe that most of you care about the software and systems. When I using the previous phone, I have tried different ROMs repeatedly, just to experience the latest system features. And every time I spent a whole night, I couldn’t get a satisfactory experience. Because there are so many bugs!!! As a result, I spent the other several hours to return to the original stock Rom, again and again. I am tired of this experience!

The biggest advantage of Nokia 8.1 is that it belongs to the Android One system and it can enjoy two years of major system updates that Google is responsible for. But, no one dares to promise you with the Nokia X7. What's more, the X7 system does not use the original Google Apps, because the google service is not supported in China. If you buy X7, I can guarantee that you will soon want to switch back to Android One. Otherwise you will be very unaccustomed. This is my truely suggestion, thank you!
[Nokia 8.1 Questions & Answers] singhnsk:
Well, I have a diff experience though. I bought my Nokia 7 from China, running the CN ROM. It was on Nougat 7.1.1. I have since then received Android 8.0, Android 8.1 and now Android 9. And it is currently on the Android 9 with March security patch.

So, updates are reasonable well on the CN ROM too. Plus we enjoy more features a lot of which are simply missing from the Android One experience.

The X7 does come with Play Services installed. So, you can use *most* Google apps without needing to make any sort of modifications. Just install the Play Store from the Chinese app store and it is ready to be used.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] richardkemp:
Hi, I cracked my screen today! Completely dead.

On ebay UK I only see replacement screens listed as being LCDs. I'm unsure whether this is the seller being completely accurate that they are offering a lower quality part than the original, or if they are mis-naming what is actually an AMOLED screen because they think everyone searches for LCD and not for AMOLED, nobody knows the name AMOLED maybe. I don't mind not getting an original Samsung replacement display, but I do want it to be OLED of some kind rather than LCD.

Does anyone know what the deal is here? I've messaged a few sellers but am not necessarily expecting a technically accurate response.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Ibuprophen:
I've noticed this myself and found that this reference is common (and there's no such display made that's truly LCD) as long as it's specified as being compatible for your device.

Other terms used are "Digitizer", "Digitizer Display" and "Digitizer Display Assembly" on top of a handful of others.

Good Luck!

[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] richardkemp:
Thanks, that was pretty much what I had assumed. I just really didn't want to spend the money and end up with an LCD!
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] james_rokr:
LCD Screens are a cheap alternative for replacing the costly Super AMOLED, although, color and image quality are nothing in comparision of a real AMOLED and you will loose some features like Smart Cover and Ambient Display (since LCD screens cannot turn off individual pixels like amoled does), Battery life can be compromised too as LCD displays consume a little more energy than the amoled.

For the price of an original Super AMOLED display (90 Usd aprox) is a better deal to grab a used S5 with a display in mint condition ( the same 90 USD)
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] richardkemp:
James, you're saying that LCDs are actually manufactured as third-party replacements for S5 displays?

I really hope that's not true as I've just bought an eBay item listed as an 'S5 LCD'. I will be very disappointed if I don't receive an AMOLED. I guess I can't argue with the price though.... (20 pounds = $26)
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Ibuprophen:
In 2015, Samsung was looking to manufacture the "2K LTPS LCD" display for the Galaxy S5 to replace the "2K resolution AMOLED" displays.

This apparently didn't happen and the "2K resolution AMOLED" displays remains.

I've encountered so many sellers stating the LCD incorrectly.

I do know that the following website link is to a replacement Digitizer Display for the Galaxy S5 and is very reputable with their parts and guides.

https://www.ifixit.com/Store/Android/Galaxy-S5-Screen-and-Digitizer/IF236-000

Just providing another option...

Remember that there's separate Digitizer Display Assemblies (both the Digitizer and glass) and there's Screens (the glass only) that are much cheaper but, a nightmare to separate from the Digitizer Display itself.

Good Luck!

[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] richardkemp:
For posterity's sake... I received the new screen today and it is a backlit LCD. This is a bit disappointing but at least it works and is not terrible quality like the last display I bought on ebay.

Pros: cheap, fast shipping

Cons: it's not an AMOLED, colours are pretty muted, the backlight bleeds around the edge of the screen glass even when the display is sealed in place!, the back button is not very responsive, the display is a little thicker than the original and sticks out past the frame instead of being recessed slightly behind the frame.

The item I ordered was called "For Samsung Galaxy S5 i9600 G900F Black LCD Display Touch Screen Digitizer UK" from ebay seller wonderdigital: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/332929429585
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Ragonexus:
Hello,

I was wondering if anyone already tested the Android Q beta GSI on the MI A1, and/or if someone is working on a beta port.

Sadly I can't test it myself as my phone died 2 days ago and I have yet to wait for my new battery!

Maybe someone can test it, I'd be very interested! :victory:

Have a nice day,

So glad to get this :victory:
[Nextbit Robin] tlxxxsracer:
FP scanner registration isnt working.

Edit: getting a lot of weird behaviors with launching restarting. Getting missed/double or phantom screen presses (when scrolling through app draw it'll open an app randomly)
[Nextbit Robin] AnierinB:
Finger registration works. Usually you have to attempt enrolling your finger a second time to actually get it to register. I've found this to be the same for every pie ROM I've used/built for ether.

As for your phantom input issue, I haven't experienced anything of the sort myself. Can you capture the issue in a logcat and link it here?
[Nextbit Robin] mazzhg:
PE is the favorite rom for all my devices and also on Robin it works well. One question, is it possible to add a shortcut to turn off the screen without pressing power button? For example long press on back button, or other.

Thank you for supporting Robin and your great work.
[Nextbit Robin] Raiz:
Unfortunately it's not possible. Since it's an official version, Anierin can't add features to this ROM.

But you can always contact the creator of this ROM : jhenrique09 through XDA PM or Telegram
[Nextbit Robin] googleygoggles:
Yaaaaaaaaay

Edit: Awww... Setup keeps crashing with no way out. Clean Install and everything :(
[Nextbit Robin] Raiz:
Everytime... That's the problem with this app...

Each time it happened to me, I got out of it after 10 min spamming buttons on the screen, and that was always with a huge luck.

Sorry man, I can't do anything about it.
[Nextbit Robin] AnierinB:
Hmm, I've clean flashed several times with no issues regarding setup. Have you tried another clean flash?
[Nextbit Robin] sa3e1:
I see no option to enroll fingerprint (eighter during setup, nor in settings), how can I do it? Other than that really great ROM, thanks!
[Nextbit Robin] Raiz:
I'm running this ROM rn and fingerprint is under settings>security>fingerprint
[Nextbit Robin] sa3e1:
Strangely I have no such option. Maybe I will do a full wipe and reinstall. Thanks anyway!
[Nextbit Robin] Raiz:
Yeah that's weird , let me know if it worked ?
[Nextbit Robin] AnierinB:
Are you on n108 firmware?

If so, I'd try reflashing it then PE. If that doesn't work, your fingerprint hardware may be broken. Can you confirm it working on other ROMs? If so, what ROMs & android version?
[Nextbit Robin] TheSonicEmerald:
Is the expected behavior for incoming calls to just be broken, or should it be switching off VoLTE & switching on 3G for it work? I'm using Google Voice's Phone integration as well (dunno if that makes a difference), and all incoming calls have the muted issue on both sides.
[Nextbit Robin] rajibie:
Can't place any call on Airtel network. No incoming and outgoing. Internet works fine. Clean flashed several times but no solution
[Nextbit Robin] Hateware:
Can someone provide a mirror?

The download link is broken or the maintener doesn't support this ROM anymore.

Please, thanks in the advance!
[Nextbit Robin] Raiz:
Actually I think the maintainer dropped this ROM since he's now a team member of the Evolution X ROM.

And he's busy right now so I don't think he'll be available any soon for this ROM
[Nextbit Robin] Hateware:
Thanks for the answer mate, but if someone has it on their hard disk they could upload it somewhere...
[Nextbit Robin] Raiz:
Well on my side I haven't any copy of it. But I can advice the pretty good Evolution X ROM, it's smooth and has a bit more features than PE, you may check that out one day

Can you give me your exact steps on how did you tried flashing kernel ?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] rowdyruffbrick:
I flashed the kernel through TWRP, then flashed magisk and wiped the delvik cache. I came from stock kernel as well. Rebooted, and the phone was just stuck on the Google logo for 10 mins before I decided to reboot into the bootloader.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] AndroidGX:
Could you try to just boot the kernel (without flashing it) and report if it's booting for you? (steps provided into post OP)

Also, could you check check MD5 checksum from downloaded ZIP file ?

i flashed ur kernel + magisk waited for it to boot for 8 minutes .

Needless to say, i flashed stock boot img now. I've always had bootup issues with this kernel, how long are others waiting?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] AndroidGX:
Can you try the following and report ? :

flash full factory firmware (without -w)

let it boot

return recovery

flash kernel + magisk

It should boot within a minute or two (max) :good:
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] masri1987:
Not doing a full factory firmware flash ... I already did that before I flashed ur kernel days ago

I came from stock rom and kernel FYI.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] xFirefly93:
Flashing a factory image without the -w flag included won't erase / delete anything from your device.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] AndroidGX:
Did you flashed full factory April 2019 update (and not the OTA) ?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] masri1987:
Yes . I do that with every update.

Don't feel like doing it. It's pointless to do if I'm coming from stock.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Spider_Pig27:
Try the new build & it seems to get tuck on "Google" screen. I tried it twice with different roms & I had to reflash stock images to get phone to boot up again. I tried it on DU rom & AOSIP. Hopefully gets fixed oon
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] AndroidGX:
Unfortunately I don't have the XL version but the normal one, so difficult to me to reproduce unless someone buy me a XL :)

Some last ideas to try :

Check MD5sum of the kernel

Try previous v1.2 and report if it's booting properly ? (if yes then there is a problem with 1.3 on XL only)
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Walker Street:
Yes, I've experienced it getting stuck at Google boot on my Pixel 3 XL after flashing v1.3 of the kernel. I've tried doing this twice. I'm installing the full factory image before-hand each time. I want to disable force-encryption and still use my fingerprint to unlock the phone. I'll try version 1.2 and see if it allows me to do this. I'm not sure how you're going to track this bug if you don't have an XL. Good luck.

I'm having the same problem with v1.2..... and 1.1 and 1.0
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] AndroidGX:
Is it working by just booting the kernel ? (fastboot boot zImage-lz4.dtb // instructions into first post if needed)

This is strange. I will wait in few days for google to update its source for the next release, but if it still not boot, I will close this thread and keep releasing only for blueline version.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Walker Street:
I tried fastboot boot zImage-lz4.dtb with all versions (1.0-1.3) and they all get stuck at the Google boot up screen, with a stock rom newly installed. If you have any ideas, I don't mind you sending a test version to me and I'll try it on my Pixel 3 XL. I'm particularly interested in the fact you removed forced encryption.

All the best.x
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] AndroidGX:
Can you try latest 1.4 that I just released today ? if it works, I will edit first post (otherwise, I will close this thread from XL side) :good:
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] AndroidGX:
Thread closed

XL community seems very poor and I need more reactivity from people to test, which it seems I didn’t had for now since so many days. I have to close this thread then.

SImpleGX KERNEL will continue only for blueline.

If someone wants to have XL compatibility, feel free to PM me to send a free device to experiment.

Thank you for your understanding.
