[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] MoHuToP:
Both have pros and cons. My first Poco stay with stock 10.2.3, but my daily driver goes to crdroid straight after unlock. It's your choice. If you aware of security, go deep in Los derivatives. I think the performance is result of various factors, like tweaking and optimization. Miui gave me rock solid experience with proper performance and good battery endurance, but my personal choise is Los. Stay tuned.

Regards.

I have another question guys... I wanna use root to use adaway and I'm unable to use gpay.. Any roms that I can do both? Magisk hide doesn't do the trick either
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] elvisjj:
I am with Havoc OS & extreme kernel (without any tweaks) in my poco with ~250K antutu score but just using Evalution profile in thermal profile changer app gives a boost to antutu score which is around 295K.

But sorry this is not the answer you are expecting.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] kamyd:
Hi everyone

First I've searched the whole net but couldn't find anything

There is a horizontal white strip under clock-battery and cell info and its because of moto launcher it doesn't exist in any other launcher

It's not completely white it's just a little brighter black

I use mostly black wallpapers so I notice it and is annoying

I updated to 8.1 and done a factory reset but its still there so im using evie launcher but it does not support rotation

anyone have any idea how to get rid of this?

I'll upload a picture in one hour if needed

Thanks a lot

*********************************************************

I'm most likely undereducated here but I have never seen reason to try/use a custom ROM. The great folks here on XDA are always quick to publish the latest tweaks and updates, so I feel like my device is as good as it's going to get. But, I'm hoping I'm wrong.

So that is why I am starting this discussion. Maybe your feedback and opinions will get me and any other user lacking ROM knowledge to convert.

Or maybe we will discover some fun difference in Variants and find a way to Port it over to all devices. No matter what, I think it would be useful to see what everyone is running on their device on a typical day. It may even help other development just to see what the average user is using.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] JonnyTrulove:
So far we only have one person using a custom ROM. I'm surprised, I thought everyone used one them except me.

Any users or non users have opinions on why or why you don't use ROMs?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] JonnyTrulove:
Anyone using custom Kernels?

Like ROMs, Kernels are another popular mod I personally don't use, but people seem pretty into modifying them/upgrading them, so I'm going to add that field to the original posts now as its prob worth a discussion too...
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Custom ROMs currently do not have LG's

DTS 3D Stereo

-- but mostly because with my current job, I can't risk stuff like this:

Just a random comment pulled off bottom of a ROM thread before replying to this question. On my previous phone (Moto Quark) I ran stable custom ROMs all the time -- especially Resurrection Remix. For 3 years never ran stock, once we got custom ROMs.

I even kept a thread going with all the Moto Quark (Droid Turbo/Moto Turbo/Moto Maxx) custom ROMs available-- because we were spread over two different XDA forums. (Sort of like how the

LG V30S has its own XDA forum

for no reason?) But both Quark forums were active, but all CM/Lineage ROMs were compatible with all variants). Over there, I was the ROM expert. ;). I flashed ROMs all the time on my and my wife's phones.

But on this V30+, I'm running rooted stock firmware with Magisk mods, Xposed modules and build prop edits.

Also, I like the Quad DAC and I LOVE the new DTS 3D Stereo, which custom ROMs don't have yet (DTS is what I'm talking about)... to my knowledge.

That's no disrespect to any of the custom devs in this forum. It's just personally, I just can't risk my phone not working with my current job -- and rooted stock firmware with mods gives me what I need. You asked, so I answered. ;)

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] schwinn8:
I use VS996 stock rooted because it gives me everything I need. Sure, it's not Pie, but who cares? I don't get the obsession with getting the latest OS level, because you can usually get all those features via apps if you really want them... particularly if you're rooted. Yes, I know some lower-level things are not there... but it's not that big of a deal.

Longer rant - this is why I can't buy the "fragmentation" complaint from iOS people. On iOS you HAVE to upgrade the OS to get many newer features, because that's how Apple does it. In Android, you can get most (if not all) of those features with just apps... the OS is not a factor. For example, Siri came out and immediately was not available on the previous gen phone... because it required a special chip or some other such nonsense. Meanwhile, Google Now (predecessor to Assistant) was available to previous OSes without issue...

Anyway, beyond that, I also stick to stock because I get VOLTE on VS996 with my Verizon MVNO (Total Wireless)... other ROMs haven't figured out Verizon's VOLTE from what I read.

And, as ChazzMatt said, he needs a working phone, as do I... I don't have time to troubleshoot or deal with lack of voice, lack of calls, etc.

I did do a lot of ROMming in the past on my Galaxy S3 and previous phones, but it was always a challenge keeping it running. Tweaks were a constant game, and it just was a lot more work than I cared to do. With stock rooted, things work well, and the plethora of app solutions for minor features (or even Magisk/root mods) make pretty much everything available... so I don't bother anymore. My previous Droid Turbo phone is still working on stock rooted, and works pretty well (heavy things chew out the battery, and the battery is 4 years old... but if I can run it for 4 years, that's a good deal). Heck, my Galaxy S3s are still used occasionally as video cameras to monitor our cats...

I ask you, why bother with a ROM? What's missing?

No offense to our ROM makers... they are doing an awesome job. Frankly, without them and their experimentation, we wouldn't have the options we have anyway. This level of experimentation is important, and I'm glad it exists... it's just not for me...
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] JonnyTrulove:
[MENTION=3250376]ChazzMatt[/MENTION] I'm glad you jumped in here. I was really curious to hear what you were running since you're so active in the V30 dev boards and have contributed so much to the community.

Honestly I'd probably have a bricked device if not for you and a couple other devs on here.

If you find a ROM down the road that works for you, please let me know as I'm kinda in the same boat you are when it comes to needing a stable everyday driver.

Thanks for adding your two cents.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Bupreno:
Stock rom has the amazing camera and it's features , more steps in volume control !! Now with ozop animations it's even more fun to play with..

Vs

Custom roms- more fluid and better animations , less lag ,can't get this on stock ...

For me the screen looks better somehow in custom ones, maybe the caliberation..

Glad the dac still works.. Google camera can make up for clicking pics.. gonna miss the video capabilities..

There are always minor issues like fingerprint sensor sometimes doesn't work, few app crashes.. on the upside most apps work better smoother on custom roms since it's stock based

It definitely demands a try.. really thank all the developers , I request those who are leaving to come back,your demands will be met ?..

I've decided to use custom roms as daily drivers and stock only when I go out on vacations for the camera capabilities.. now that switching is much simpler with migrate , it's all possible and less cumbersome..
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] kenbo111:
I'm still new to this phone. What's this 'ozop animation'?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Bupreno:
Its a zip flashable in twrp used to change system animations, pretty dope..

Works flawlessly.. But there's a possibility of soft bricking your phone.. Mine went down twice.. Maybe cos i reflashed it to change the animations without first uninstalling it.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Bupreno:
Superior OS

model- H930ds, airtel sim,india.

Rom- Superior OS with the kernel mentioned in the forum!

Goodies-many customizations- look at the screenshots below.

Note- I think with the kernel the speaker volume has increased!! Battery is average with greenify, more or less like stock oreo. The dev maintaining the rom is pretty active and helpful!

bad- problem with the navbar, back button only works if i tap it twice so i had to use built in one plus gestures. When i have my earphones on and i text a message on whatsapp , magically the volume suddenly increases as if the Dac is on at full power!! i have to unplug and replug them to save my ears. The same happens if a song is paused and theres a phone call, volume of thats gonna one day damage my ear drums pretty bad..

Suggestions- same as my previous rom review. AND USE THIS GCAM- https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/gca...jGE8qLGOpTKkcxN_7B0juXg1J6Msg7MRNITNEOhYqsFzg

been my daily driver for a week now.

so far so good..

Original Variant/Carrier: China Frankensteined V300L on a VS996

Current Variant/Carrier: V300S

Name of Custom ROM (link if you can): None. Rooted stock.

Custom or modified kernel: None. Yet.

Additional Features: None yet.

Missing / Broken Features: No more OTA update from LG

Overall Likes: The ultra wide. Sole reason I got LG phones. And this fone keeps it at a good 120 instead of the newer Gs & Vs 107.

Being a photographer, I don't understand the bokeh craze. EVERYTHING should be in a photo not just a person or some random object. Wide angle changes everything when it comes to mobile photography. Telephoto.. psshhh.. We got feet for a reason.

Overall Dislikes: No IR!!! Damn you LG!

Custom Modifications: Magisk root. More to come.

Theme(s): Coming soon.

Magisk Modules: Coming soon.

Xposed Modules: Never really bothered with xposed aside from using it to join the PoGo craze a years back :P

Must have Apps: ES File pro to get around the phone, Titanium Backup to debloat.

Must have accessory: Soon to arrive wireless charging dock and a silicone case for the back. Don't think I'll bother with SPs. My G5 lasted a good 3 years without one and is still scratch free.

I've not had the time to fiddle with phone too much. Just got it like yesterday and flashed it the same night after finding out it was already frankensteined. Might as well no? :cool:

Original Variant/Carrier: HK H930DS

Current Variant/Carrier: H930

ROM: Stock OPEN EU 21w

Custom or modified kernel: none

Additional Features: Magisk, stock DTS, stock additional weather animations

Missing / Broken Features: IR blaster, LG UI (yes it's a broken feature !), faulty headphone jack after 5 months, stock amoled dark theme

Overall Likes: Almost everything. Smooth, sufficient battery life, great screen, perfect size, no notch, wide angle, quad DAC, DTS (even it's not as cool as the universal port), SD card availability, 128GB internal storage, small useful features... I enjoy using my v30 every day !

Overall Dislikes: why no IR blaster ? And the button dance to get to recovery is perfectly silly. I would like to use custom ROMs (old Redmi note 3 user here, MIUI ditched directly after bootloader unlock and stock used from nougat to pie) but it still lacks too much stock features for me (hi-res/loud recording, stock camera, overall stability)

Custom Modifications: LG stock apps aren't as satisfying as Google's, so I froze most of them and use Google dialer, messages etc. Lastest lawnchair alpha installed and used too.

Theme(s): Swift black theme, pretty satisfying combined with the lg g7 black theme found on playstore. I just deactivated the System UI part, it keeps white notifications but it's ok. I couldn't change of system accent so I matched it with the swift black app.

Magisk Modules: ADB & fastboot, busybox, FDroid privileged, Google Dialer Framework, MagiskHide props config, safety patch, universal GMS doze, YouTube Vanced... And more to come : LKT or NFS-Injector or fde.ai (still needs to identify which one is the best and if it's really useful), ainur sauron + jamesdsp + aml (I always have problems with audio mods setup with this phone)

Xposed Modules: none

Must have Apps: MiX, PowerAmp, SD Maid, Link2SD, Greenify aaaaand XDA Labs

Must have accessory: a 128GB SD card for tons of music !!!

Coming next: I have to fix my damn headphone jack. Ihope scratching it from the inside will be enough... Otherwise I'd have to call EU warranty on a HK imported model, which isn't exactly a good idea. A custom toggle in quick settings for location (high/low accuracy) would also be nice. I would also like to write down in one place in this forum all the 'differences' between all the v30 variants and state clearly for all new users which one is compatible with the other.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] tech_infinity:
Hey, I just rooted my ind 930ds and I'm running 20e.

So far I've enabled dts, adaway and magisk modules like yt vanced and busybox. Also I've flashed adreno drivers.

I know you use anxious v30 but it's not compatible with my variant

Can you please share the names of some useful mods(no need to define what they do, I'll search that using the name) that you use?

I'm especially curious about mods that are useful for V30.

In the past I've used gravitybox and a few other modules that work for all devices.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Then why do that?

In my WTF instructions I tell two different ways to avoid that. ;) See Section 6 for both:

1) Recovery Reboot app. Put a shortcut on your main screen. I mention it twice in Section 6 on purpose.

OR

2) Fastboot boot TWRP.img command -- which is only necessary for initial TWRP booting after installation, but can be used other times. But #1 is fantastic if you have TWRP and root. No need ever for hardware button dance.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] neocyke:
Personally I use Rebooter. It's a chinese app that has more options. Reboot, shutdown, recovery, bootloader / fastboot. Same as what you'd get on a 4-way reboot menu on customs. Found it so useful I have on every other rooted device I own from droidboxes to tablets to phones. Haven't tried it on the V30 though. Still working on getting it settled to a decent fw version first.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jilano34:
Oh, I meant when you're bootlooping without a computer at hand (and as mine is gone since march...) I find the hardware shortcut stupid : why did LG chose that instead of just clicking volume down and power ? It even needs to go through to screens asking if I want to erase all data... It's just something irritating during emergency reboots (for normal programmed use, I have magisk manager's shortcut, I don't often need to go to TWRP), and the first time it happened I spent hours searching for the correct method to achieve it, with was difficult to understand.

The WTF instructions are all good, I followed them the day I received my phone (and they convinced me to buy the phone, actually ;) ). Thank you for your answer anyway !
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] JonnyTrulove:
Completely agree on the camera. I'm not familiar with the term Bokeh though, but overall agree with your statement. This phone is probation the best camera most people have ever owned and they don't even realize it. I've never taken more pictures than when I got the first one of my LG devices with the dual rear camera wide angle shooting definitely flips the script from simple cameraphone shot to "oh **** look at that pic!".

As for IR, that's another one that bugs me. I don't need it all the time, but having it still would be a nice little bonus. Especially as it was a standard feature on the V and G series for so long. Hope to see them add it back in a later model (doubt it, but hey they ditched wireless charging and then brought it back, so maybe)

Have you tried Mixxplorer as a replacement over ES? I swore by ES and tried 50 different other apps, always going back to ES, until I tried Mixxplorer and now I dont even have ES loaded on my device anymore. It's personal preference, but if you haven't tried it out, I'd recommend giving it a spin. It's available both on XDA Labs (the dev is a member here) and now on Google play.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
It is a great rear camera.

Root Explorer app forever. ;)
