[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Bob Simons:
I was on T-Mobile for years but I could save a lot if I became the 4th phone on a shared unlimited plan on AT&T. So I bought a US998 and I brought it to AT&T to add a line on a bring my own device offer. They have an optional $4/month service which is essentially greatly extended caller ID and it identifies "likely scams" among other things like mobile user caller ID and identifies a lot of things that regular caller ID doesn’t. I had it on T-Mo until earlier today. It, however, requires that the phone be accepted for "HD Voice" which the V30 is but not on AT&T if the IMEI isn’t on "their" list of their phones. It isn’t a matter of the phone having the US998 firmware but that the IMEI doesn’t match. If I understand things correctly, and I don’t know that I do, then even if I bought an H931 from an eBay seller, I'd be unable to activate it with full functionality.

If I'm wrong, then I could return the US998 and buy an H931 and flash it to a us998 and give up some memory (the US998 is a V30+) and some cheap headphones and get the missing features. Or I could go back to T-Mo and spend another $30 a month. Or I could give up the caller ID, Wi-Fi calling, HD voice and a few lesser features.

I found an email form an AT&T rep, back in 2016, saying that they were working on adding all features for users of phones brought to AT&T and that they were working on it. I don’t remember if they implied it was at great urgency. When I was at the store, the people there spent over a half hour trying to activate the service and they couldn’t figure it out. Of course, they merely tried the same failing things over and over and never tried other things like maybe calling AT&T support, or looking it up or even asking people who might have known. When I called and got as supervisor, I was told it didn’t work because it was the policy of AT&T to not offer the services on BYOD phones.

Anyone know anything here? I'd prefer info trhat;'d help me get my6 phone on AT&T wiht the features but I'd settle for knowing tghat it';s not goping to work.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
No, you don't quite understand correctly. They are pressing you to have an AT&T-branded phone, not specifically a phone they personally sell to you. You could buy an H931 off eBay and it would have the IMEI they SAY they are looking for.

Having said that you admit they didn't call AT&T tech support. I would call AT&T tech support myself or go to another AT&T store. If they still say no, then buy an H931 off eBay...

Also, what happens when you flash the H931 TWRP-flashable zip to your US998? That doesn't allow the AT&T features?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Bob Simons:
from, what I understand, it comes down to provisioning and they describe the process as one with no discretionary range at all. The only issue is whether the IMEI is in the list that can be so provisioned. Whether it is owning a H931 or a phone of their supply is unknown but they do insist it is the latter. I compare it to the issues some people report trying to unlock a phone they say is paid for and others say it is not. The idea being that there is a somewhat fluid master list somewhere and they are saying there is a list of H931s meant for sale by AT&T agents.

I don't believe it either but it appears to be a road block.

So now do I try to return the US998 because I had activation issues with it? On a fairness level, it's not the fault of the eBay reseller who sold me the phone he said he would, and by all accounts, in good working order.

So what would you do, if you accepted my position that I need these features that seem to require an IMEI that AT&T is willing to provision with HD Voice, and the resulting capabilities which only follow on a phone provisioned for HD Voice so I could subscribe for the $4/.month caller ID service. I’d hate to pay another $300 to buy a H931 to find that the problem still exists or that I now have 2 phones when I need one.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
I'm going to leave that decision to you.

My sister and brother-in-law both have LS998 V30+ (off eBay) converted to US998 V30+ and they're both on post paid AT&T. He's a successful tech salesperson and they live in a million dollar house. :)

Another friend of mine (very tech oriented) has postpaid AT&T on native US998 V30 (B&H Photo) and works for a world wide news organization.

I don't know whether they have HD Voice, WiFi calling on their US998 -- but they have never complained about not having it...

They all got this phone on my recommendation, and are using it on postpaid AT&T.

____

My wife and I, my mother and two other friends have either native or converted US998 on Prepaid AT&T. I do not have those features, but I like having the lower price of AT&T Prepaid with the speed of postpaid AT&T included vs the lag of AT&T MVNOs.

____

But you know your needs better than me. I would just try with another store or AT&T technical support before giving up. If you do return the US998 you can bootloader unlock and root H931. I would activate first to get everything done, before following the WTF instructions.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Bob Simons:
I just spoke to a so-called supervisor who tells me that the issue is one of supported devices on the BYOD plan. they say that while the H931 as sold by AT&T is a supported device, an h931 not sold by AT&T is somehow fundamentally different and it appears to them as having a different "image" (a term not explained or otherwise defined) and so there is no way that a non AT&T H931 will ever appear on their system, as one of theirs. As not one theirs, they refuse the range of services that include "HD Voice, Wi-Fi calling and enhanced caller ID and a security feature that I don’t know the name of.

They insist that this "image" issue is really true and that anyone with an AT&T supplied H931 and a non-AT&T H931 appear as different devices on their system.

They proposed creating an escalation ticket so that the "back office department" can look to see if there is anything that they can do. They say as things are currently set up there is no option anywhere to authorize a non-AT&T phone but maybe the back-office folks can do it, I’m promised a callback in 24 hours and he is improbably making positive sounding noises. As so much of this makes no sense, I don’t expect qi positive result, but I will give them 24 hours

I'm not casting aspersions on any user of AT&T's postpaid or pre-paid system but I can say that I ne3edc Wi-Fi calling for reception where I work and I want the caller IDF service and have come to want it in the 4 years I’ve been on T-Mobile who offers the same product.

Please don’t think that I'm critiquing anyone who is using any carrier's system to their satisfaction. I'm just saying that I would be significantly troubled by not having Wi-Fi calling as I live and work in areas where there is no calling except once inside buildings and connected to their Wi-Fi LAN. And for whatever reason, I'm being excluded on grounds that seem suspicions.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Bob Simons:
can anyone tell me what rom I should use for the H932?

I've just about decided to go back to T-Mo and I need a rom that wont lose root an dwill enable B71 and would like the latest, stockest thing that has been at least partly debloated. Is there any such thing? Is there info for loadng the lastest H932 rom on a US998?

This T-Mobile ROM port for US998 won't give you LTE band 71, but probably everything else:

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Bob Simons:
is there any way to get band 71, and wifi calling on a us998?

I just went to a t-mo store with the us998 rom and put a t-mo sim in it and the hd voice calling worked fine although I didn't try Wi-Fi calling yet. But where I live I think b71 would make a huge difference. In any case I want a chance to find out if this is true. This is probably the main reason I bought the V30: my V20 doesn’t even have B71 and I have no reception in way too many places where t-mo says there is coverage. They also imply that most new build out is with b71, and they further imply that all else equal, ,b71 works better as if it's just magic. It seems at last worth checking out if there's a chance. I see some roms change the modems and some do not. Is it likely that that roms that don’t change the modem will not change the lack of b71 so I'd need a rom that includes an h932 modem to even have a chance of b71 working?

Thanks agian for all yuor help.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Bob Simons:
a while ago you said thje us998 had band 71

I'm referring to https://www.xda-developers.com/unlocked-lg-v30-band-71-600-mhz/

If the us998 doesnt have b71, does it if it has the H932 modem?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
If you read that article, do you see who he quoted in that article and what thread he linked to? ;). Someone named ChazzMatt. Go read the thread he links to, please. I started that thread.

https://xdaforums.com/lg-v30/how-to/t-mobile-600-mhz-lte-band-71-s-carrier-t3671351

That was also in September 2017 before the OFFICIAL carrier unlocked (Open Market) US998 V30/V30+ was released. We were hoping the upcoming "official" carrier unlocked US998 (sold by authorized 3rd party retailers like B&H Photo) would ALSO have the new U.S. T-Mobile LTE band 71 -- and one part of T-Mobile SEEMED to be hinting it would... That you could buy EITHER H932 OR the "official" carrier unlocked US998 and have all the T-Mobile bands. These official carrier unlocked phones are called "Open Market" phones by LG; these are the phones that LG usually lists in their LG Bootloader Unlock code eligible list.

Thus the thread I started, and subsequent XDA NEWS article. That turned out to NOT be true. The tweets we misleading.

Even so, we also hoped with root on the "Open Market" US998 we could activate the hidden T-Mobile network menus we could clearly see. THAT is also discussed in the thread.

Yet in all the time since then, no one has had any luck getting T-Mobile LTE band 71 working on any phone except U.S. T-Mobile H932.

[MENTION=3167089]runningnak3d[/MENTION], the dev who ROOTED the T-Mobile H932 currently uses a US998 on T-Mobile. If anyone could get LTE band 71 on T-Mobile with US998, it would be him. ;). He hasn't, and he says LTE band 71 is not that important for him.

______

We also found out the the only difference between the "Open Market" official carrier unlocked US998 V30 (64GB) sold by B&H Photo and the US998 V30 (64 GB) sold by U.S. Cellular is the B&H Photo V30 was secretly eligible for LG bootloader unlock code. One of my V30 used official LG bootloader unlock code, but we had to hack the LG dropdown menu on the LG Dev website to enter the information. LG has NEVER officially announced the Open Market US998 V30 is eligible for bootloader unlock code. That trick/hack does NOT work for the Open Market US998 V30+. So, only one of my phones was bootloader unlocked using that method.

However there was NO DIFFERENCE between the various US998 V30+ (128GB) sold by the any entities. NO US998 V30+ is eligible for LG bootloader unlock code, and ALL US998 V30/V30+ are actually carrier unlocked -- even those sold by U.S. Cellular.

LG was not forthcoming with any of this information. We had to figure it out by ourselves, through trial and error.

With WTF exploit, we are not dependent on LG for bootloader unlock code. But that developments did not happen until May 2018. My US998 V30+ was not bootloader unlocked and rooted until then.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Bob Simons:
Of course I know it was you. that's why I'm asking you follow up questions.

I'm seeing comments along two theories and I dont i know which is more likely true. Theory one is that the 835 chips come in two types, ones that have band 71 capabilities and those tht dont, or the other theory which is that there are software modems thaat compensate for the lack of included band 71 modems, and where a certain software modem could add the capbility. In effect, some say that the US998 can never get band 71 and others say for example, that if you knew what you were doing wiht the Shortcut Master you could add the band, or alternatively, you could flash the correct rom or modem.

And so I start doing my homework and sure enough, you show up as one of the few that know anything about it.

I have no idea but I keep being told that things arent going to go the way I want them to. I'm hoping that I can get band 71 using this phone because I just bought this phone and I need or think I need band 71. It is why I bougnt this phone.

How do things look for me getting band 71? My clever plan to go to AT&T failed rather dramatically by my standards, even if you think I should be fine without the functions that so many people don't care about. Out in the boonies, T-Mpo is putting most of their efforts into band 71 and I spent a lot of time driving where there is no reception and I'm told there'd be a lot more if I could get that band. that's mainly why I bought the new phone as the V20 still works about the same, not getting band 71 every day.

I'm trying to learn about this phone after 2+ years with the H918 but I'll never pick up what you know any time soon, so I'm asking you.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Bob, if you knew I wrote it and had already read the thread -- then why did you bring it up? If you read the thread you know it's not possible, as far as we know. I spent a lot of time trying to explain all that in my post and you already knew it. I didn't know how up to speed you were. If you had said, "I read this article, I read the whole thread, is there anything new, yes or no?" I would have simply said no, nothing new. Move on.

You are making my head hurt.

Here are your choices:

Go buy a new AT&T H931 from AT&T.

Go buy a mint AT&T H931 off Swappa you KNOW was bought from AT&T. Swappa instead of eBay this time because they check IMEI, etc before letting it be sold. Having been bought from AT&T rather than leftover stock from some warehouse, it SHOULD be in the AT&T system as eligible for all the stuff you want. If you are uncertain, then go buy straight from AT&T.

Go buy a T-mobile H931 if you want to stay with T-mobile and get LTE band 71.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Bob Simons:
no, I didnt understand and now I do

thanks. i thought it was supposed to be possible.

so my best bet is to get a 931 so I can pay less.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
This tweet from T-mobile was what got our hopes up. The "unlocked" was the US998.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Bob Simons:
yes, and stuff like that make my head explode and made me think that there was some way.

So now I have to see if I can return this ebay phone that I've rooted and go buy something else.

Hi, i have recently became a new member of having HTC Tytn, but it is very interesting as internet connection is not working with all application. For example it works with opera mini, skype, but refuses to browsing in IE, Opera, Worldmate, writes problem with connection or problem with proxy,

How i can solve this problem to make work with all app.?

My operator settings are:

APN: omnitel

maybe i use this settings not ib proper way? confused
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jakubd:
It would be obvious, if Opera and IE worked fine and opera mini and others would have problems - in this case it would be just blocked by your operator.

But like this it's a bit weird.

All I can propose you is to HR (HardReset) and then reconfigure internet connection and test it again.

I cannot review your operator's internet connection setinngs, because I don't know your operator :) But I would suggest using Network Wizard, that will apply correct settings automatically.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hurdleman:
hard reset is not helping, only delete my all data :/

anyone have any suggestion, Opera mobile is now working, but IE and Worldmate app is not :/

If Opera mobile is working and IE does not - try to delete any proxy server entered in connection settings.

Please would you consider adding an option to turn of the mobile-data-disabled icon on the status bar in the next update?

Otherwise, the ROM is super smooth for daily usage.

Using this for past three days, here is my quick review about this rom

What you will like -

1. Smooth and bugless performance.

2. Commendable battery life.

3. Decent set of customization options.

4. User interface is well optimized for our device. No need to make any tweaks.

5. Set of display themes.

6. Gcam 6 works. Well atleast the backcam and night side works for me. I m happy with that.

What you wont like

1. Video lags in whatsapp video calling.

2. Some times gcam or any other camera app like open camera etc fail to save images. Although this is resolved of you reboot the device.

For now these are the only two bugs I found. This is a great rom otherwise. I plan to keep this until next update. Thanks [MENTION=7602463]Dhairy[/MENTION] for your hard work.
