Condolences for your loss, prayers for you and family.

Also want to join those thanking you for your work on the V30. The rooted V30 with HiFi DAC driving E80 headphones is a lifeline to me right now. A real blessing that is helping with life's pain. Thank you and God bless.

[MENTION=3167089]runningnak3d[/MENTION] I'm sorry for your loss. Can't begin to imagine what you're going through. Stay strong.

You were and always will be a hero for LG development community. I enjoyed LG v20 because of you. I always thought of you as the person who had all the answers. Thanks for all you've done Brian and all the best for your future. I'll probably move out of LG after my LG V30 becomes unusable and move to a dev friendly phone.

Goodbye until the we meet again someday, in some xda thread.

Regards

Aakash.

Hi,

I want to offer my sincere condolences. I appreciate everything you've done for the community, especially for the V20, and best of luck in your future developments.

My condolences sir, thank you for being awesome with our beloved lg devices, you will be missed. And best of luck with your one plus 7, i my self will most likely move away from lg, to the nubia red Magic 3 that device is a steal for 480 USD.
[LG V35 Guides, News, & Discussion] runningnak3d:
The Red Magic 3 is definitely another possibility if they are dev friendly. I always have 2 or 3 phones, so the OP7 will be my DD, but I am looking for other devices just to have backups, and be able to spread the love around.

A new member of the LG family here, I learnt a lot through you and brother Matt about the UEFI crash, the bootlogo mods, downside of permamently getting rid of a parition on V30. And the qfuses, ABL knowledge thread from the V20. You are a real star for us. A saint. I bet the developers/engineers behind the V30 purposefully left that WTF bug for us and that Frankenstein, too. I think the LG devs/engg team always shuffled following the shuffle of the heads at the company thus we see the loss of many features and gain a few as well, thankfully they kept the ESS DAC intact along with world class solid media making masterpiece with the HiFi recording, Stellar video making, Pro Camera etc.

Also remember "You won, We all won". LG lost, they still do not realize the potential of their devices and how Superuser access gives the user a dimension and life to the phones which are feature rich. Unfortunate that how things are, less than 1% of the Android base uses the Mods/CustomROMs, Root etc. How their removable battery phone is lost now, V20 being last of the last. I bet so many V30 owners are there because of the BLunlock and root and also the TMo V30 users, forever in thanks for your work/contribution. LG XDA family wishes the best for you and we will miss you too !

Cheers.

OP is deviated to me, they do not offer the premium features for premium price, forget flagship killer - Qi, 3.5mm Jack, SD Slot (Most important for Contingency, Privacy, Emergency), IP rating, Good camera. In my eyes the OP company changed since the PA ROM team left to their own personal lives after the OP3, the key people from the PA ROM were recruited since the OP1-2. But the 180 flip was when they started against the community with camera stuff, their bloatware, removal of jack despite the twitter poll, T models, focusing on marketing since OP6T, 7Pro, I guess they broke their own record.

Pixel 3a is a good one esp the bootloader unlock with community but still expensive and lacking many things. Note/S8/9 and LG flagships are 1/2 cost esp during BF but root and BL unlock etc, and lose half the functionality because of feature rich OEM Skins to LOS etc. Zenfone 6 is an interesting option too to look at by the way (Almost stock like UI, Oxygen type, Bootloader unlock available, kernel sources released)

However, I understand your point on dev friendly devices and esp when time is a factor so I think you will be happy (Which is most important) with the 7 Pro due to the community. Just posted what I thought..please excuse.
[LG V35 Guides, News, & Discussion] tech_infinity:
I don't think nubia is dev friendly. So I'll probably be going for Redmi K20 pro or OP7
[LG V35 Guides, News, & Discussion] Guyinlaca:
My condolences as well. I don't blame you for moving on from the V35. I have a Note 9 as my primary phone and V35 as my work phone. I used to root and flash custom ROMs when I had Droids and Nexus devices but it became a hassle with newer phones. The V35 is starting to fall short in comparison to the competition.

1. We get a software update every 3 months or so and still haven't gotten Pie. Given the locked bootloader and no root, we are stuck on an Android version from fall 2017. When Samsung has them beat by 4-5 months, you know LG dropped the ball.

2. The battery life is starting to deteriorate pretty quickly. It's definitely more noticeable than the other phone brands I've used.

3. The power button wears out easily. I regularly get delayed responses from it.

The OnePlus 7 Pro looks incredible. With a 90 Hz display, huge battery, bezel free design, and unlockable bootloader it's tempting to sell the V35 and get one. I don't think I'd ever buy another LG.
[LG V35 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mackanyowie:
My condolences Brian. I know it's a tad bit too late but I hope the loss gets easier to deal with over time.

Good luck with OP.

[LG V35 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
OnePlus has no Qi wireless charging, no headset jack, no IP rating.

On latest OnePlus they finally went to 1440p FIVE YEARS after all major OEMs.

They still haven't gone to Qi wireless charging which I use every day since 2012. That's my line in the sand. Even Apple went to Qi wireless charging.

I've hated OnePlus with a passion because for so long they were just a pretender (remember when they shipped a phone without NFC?) with their "Don't Settle" lying marketing -- and is really hard to get over all that.

[LG V35 Guides, News, & Discussion] Guyinlaca:
Points well stated. That said, LG needs to up their game. They were right up there with Samsung in the debut of the V30, but the V40 and V50 have been lazy iPhone clones. They need fresh designs and software updates. What they have functions well, but I do question their long term sustainability. OnePlus needs to get back to the basics but they do offer a great product for the price.

Wow! Thanks a lot

Thanks a lot. I have experimented with my current daily cell (Mi note 2) for over a year since I bought a pair for my partner an I. She chooses to stick with company roms: I found the best an most reliable rom for me has been the bootleggers rom.

it can make a single charge last for up to 30 hours if you change its kernel to ultra battery am turn on battery saver from the top status bar options.

The cell I need help with now that costs $1100.00NZD and is softbricked is my red magic 3.

I flashed the wrong TWRP on it.

Thank you very much for the awesome link. :)

Hi I'm new to this whole PDA phone thing but I got a HTC 8525 and got it unlocked it worked fine for a while then one day I was trying to run the pocketGBA emulator when my screen went blank(all the colour faded away then the entire screen just went blank). I took it to get repaired and the software end of things are fine and the hardware end is working fine but for some odd reason the screen just lights up and is completly blank. Even stranger is that sometimes the screen is totally fine and has no problems. Can anybody help me with this weird problem??? Note the screen is not broken.

[General Questions and Answers] IET_DEMO:
Hello guys,

Grandstream released their new android desk phone, the 3370.

I'm not able to root it the way I was doing it on the GXV3275.

Motochopper worked on earlier version of 3275, then I was using KingRoot.

I tried these method on the new 3370, without success.

I tried KingoRoot and One Click Root.

The Windows version of KingoRoot and Kingroot does not work using ADB wifi, so I don't know if it could eventually work.

Do you guys know a way?

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] Nacho53:
Hi guys, first post!

I bought my rn7 global version a few weeks ago and been trying differents GCam mods.

So far Im using the latest back rider version, pretty stable and good photo quality I think a bit better than BSG version.

But before my rn7 I had an LG v20 with Cstark mod and the image quality was amazing! Nothing like the rn7, so I check the file size and are pretty different. In the xiaomi I been getting somewhere around 7 mb per photo and in the v20 around 14-16 mb.

I'm not sure if that difference is only for the mpx of each camera (v20 mod support 16mpx) or because something else

By the way I tried a mod version based on arnova, and it had way better image quality, but it was pretty unstable so I erased, and don't remember where I downloaded :rolleyes:

Cheers!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H2NB:

and of course. my EFS shows 0MB and i really need a EFS partition or even a sm-g925f backup for TWRP Recovery.

Also i tried several times flashing both lineage OS and also the stock roms of my model to fix it but it didn't booted it up at all.

My phone got repaired his back cover back then and the guy repaired it stole my IMEI Paper sticked on the battery. so i don't even know what was the real IMEI of my device. :(
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] ijob:
Hi all.

I've bought an S9+ off Ebay in the UK and assumed that I'd be sent a UK model but instead I've received a USA AT&T Snapdragon version.

I've been on xda some time now and am used to rooting and flashing roms for UK versions but not the USA versions.

Does anyone have any advice as to what I should do? Ideally I'd only want to root it but unsure how to approach it. There doesn't seem many ROMs for the Snapdragon version!

If I do successfully root it and don't flash a custom rom, will I still get official updates?

Thanks!

[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] -Mr. X-:
What you need:

Huawei Mobile Services - Get it on APK Mirror

Package Manager: App Details, Analyze & Backup - Get it on the Play Store

Steps:

1) Uninstall any update Play Store has made to your theme app

2) Install Huawei Mobile Services

3) Install Package Manager: App Details, Analyze & Backup

4) Open the package manager you installed and click on the "Activities" tab, then in the search bar type in "hwid" it will show Huawei Mobile Services. Click it to expand its activities.

5) Scroll the list of activities until you see ""HUAWEI ID" click it and then choose launch

6) this will bring you to a log in page with a link to "register" click it to create an account. Create an account, use "UK" as your region, skip the phone/sms verification and it will use your email to verify.

7) Verify your account.

8) Scroll the list of activities until you see "Account Center" click it and then choose launch which will bring you to what should be an already logged in the account manager

9) Open the themes app it will ask you to agree to the terms then notify you its switching to the Local of your Huawei ID. Bam custom themes.

10) disable the themes app auto update in the play store as it will reset the app back to the North american CUST features.

11) ???

12) Profit.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] MishaalRahman:
Just curious, but why is this necessary? Does Huawei not allow users in all regions to install custom themes?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] -Mr. X-:
custom thems are locked out of certain regions, which means your stuck with the half dozen that come built into the rom and thats it.

This step unfortunately doesn't work on my UK Honor 7s (DUA-L22) EMUI 8.0 android 8.1

So this really does work, just slightly different (for my device)

(The nav bar and notification shade still don't change theme, as before so the same functionality from before has now returned.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] -Mr. X-:
Ah then it iddnt work properly you should have the Huawei theme store in your theme app now and custom themes should be able to change the notifications and nav bar.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] bubba1601:
I have to correct you there - I've never found a theme yet that has changed the notification shade colour - the android p theme does change the nav bar to the filled in arrow circle and square but no other themes have ever worked.

I assumed that was an honour thing.

Had the device since November last year, dual SIM SIM unlocked in UK.

Tried just about every theme there is and haven't yet been able to change the notification shade.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] -Mr. X-:
But the do my dude the theme just has to support it.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] bubba1601:
Here you go.

Android P grey theme.

Applied and rebooted.

Notification shade hasn't changed - but nav bar has changed.

And yes you are very correct, it hasn't worked properly because I don't have the theme store on my device still (used to be until last OTA update)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] -Mr. X-:
try installing hauweis theme store from apk mirror it might give the rest of the functionality
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] -Mr. X-:
Failing that here is mine that's known working along as you're logged into a Huawei I'd in their mobile services.

I have a newer version (9.0.6.306)
