Hm.... I would guess this person has a Sprint model. Oh look! They even specified they did.

---------- Post added at 07:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:56 PM ----------

Which beta version are you on? Also where did you get the beta from?
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] younger06:
Well, I bit the bullet and shipped my G8 back to the US Ebay seller.....

I hope the refund goes smoothly.

Think I might try the AT&T model next as I don't think there is a comparable phone on the market at the moment that match my needs like the G8
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] Ascended 1:
Can I update the T-mobile version without that sim card via LG Bridge?

I'm in the same boat, the G8 is basically the perfect phone for me, but it was never launched in Europe... I got the sprint version but it's been pure **** :/
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] younger06:
I'm beginning to have second thoughts.......reading forums from different phone brands, the problems don't seem to be limited to LG.

It seems that using a handset from a different "region" whether your sim works or not, may completely compromise its ability to update.
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] antintin:
You want to update the t mobile version but have the Sprint version? And yes, if there is a firmware it can be updated, but not via lg bridge

did yo try to flash the canadian firmware version?

[LG G8 Questions & Answers] domingo1234:
Yesterday I was trying to find way , the only left is unlock it by the app Device Unlocker

on the GSMusaunlock there is a service for tmobile ,it cost like 50 dollars, you can use it.
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] antintin:
I don't need an unlock lol

Hi. And how you luck with unlocking?
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] Fetsman:
Kindly break this down for us novice people
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] kingnoobchase:
also looking to utilize a T-Mo prepaid service. Sprint Locked device I Believe its LM820UMKIT, I have the 820UM10d software update, it's asking to install the 20b but I'm reluctant to do so, as I would like to unlock bootloader... but if I have to update for service I'll just buy another phone to play with and keep it for work.

even though its nearly 2021 I'm getting no help from sprint unlocking the device (I bought used from Mercari app and don't have sprint account). Oh and apparently even if you want to use sprint (which I'm open to) you get directed to T-Mobile's website which is listing the IMEI as incompatible. I'm going to buy a new SIM for Boost today and see how that goes.

this sprint t-mo merger isn't helping this situation. I really just need GSM unlock to be able to receive/send text and calls. or so I am thinking.

Could I maybe flash a T-mo firmware and it work? When I do ICCU unlock option it authentication fails, and I have OEM unlock and USB debug on in dev options. I get the ICCU is like an onboard SIM maybe?

I had the LG G6 on Boost, and loved the device, so I wanted to update and stick to LG, didn't research enough apparently because I tried saving $70 and going to SIMple Mobile "powered by T-Mobile" (thinking the merger meant they were all one)

On the G6 I flashed the sprint firmware (the boost firmware kdz wasn't available) when I had a bootloop issue and it worked on Boost no problem, just had to modify the APN for data.

I got the phone for $150 in near flawless condition and now I'm understanding why these sprint locked g8's are so cheap. Would like to hear more about your solution considering the SIM and service I have invested in is "powered by T-Mobile" I imagine this designation would mean your solution with working on T-mo would also work for me.. :confused:

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] DMXrated:
I just tried to root my Redmi Note 5 with Kingroot. The option "Try root" is there, I tap that, the percentage rises all the way to 100 while below reads "Acquiring Root". A checkmark appears when it reaches 100, and it then says:

Root successful

Scanning Root security

Then I see a new percentage rise, entitled "Security index". It reaches 93 and shows an "Optimize" option, I tap that, it makes the rest of its way to 100, and then says "Optimize" again, displays a loading screen, and gives me three different versions of Kingroot to choose from. Whichever one I choose, it then urges me to either leave 5 stars or share with a friend. The former leads to a screen that just says "Item not found."

I go all the way back to the first screen, and it once again says "Device is not Root yet".

Even Root Checker confirms that it had in fact failed to root.

What am I doing wrong here?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Ibuprophen:
I don't have this device myself but, I had performed a quick search regarding KingRoot and your specific device.

It looks like KingRoot doesn't play well with many of the Redmi devices reflecting allot of issues (with little/no success). To be honest, I personally am not a fan of KingRoot specifically.

I just wanted to point out that the following Device Dedicated Area of the Forum is specific to your device (& it's 5 Plus cousin).

I also see that [MENTION=7644154]SubwayChamp[/MENTION] is an active member there who may be able to chime in here and provide you with a little guidance as well (not to put My Friend in the spotlight... LOL! ).

This is the best guidance I can provide you and I do wish you the best of luck! :)

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SubwayChamp:
I´m in the same wagon with [MENTION=4828250]Ibuprophen[/MENTION], KingRoot, KingoRoot and similar are not of my like at all and I wont recommend them.

The procedure to root this device is pretty easy with the lot of development around it either Vince or Whyred you have to follow the next:

- Unlock bootloader.

- Install/flash a custom recovery of your preference.

- Flash Magisk through it.

In the case you have Whyred an additional step must be required; don´t flash recovery directly from fastboot but boot on it and flash the zip or image once you booted to recovery.

To can boot up to system for first time you might need to format data or flash a sort or DM-Verity to avoid integrity control at boot process but most of custom recovery have this feature in-built.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cracktech:
KingRoot

There are times when Kingrooot/Kingoroot is breeze there are times when it might even corrupt your device. Kingroot is most suitable with MTK , Rockchip, Amlogic chip of yesteryears. MTK devices before are "open" never heard of bootlock on MTK of yesteryears (2-3 years ago) , that is where Kingroot/Kingoroot is most suitable. But the MTK Pxx series it is a no go and for any Kirin(Huawei), Snapdragon, Exynos powered devices. Your problem is not unique "reports a successful root" but is actually not rooted after reboot (I presume). All I can offer my opinion is that your bootloader is "locked". You need to "fastboot" a "modified bootloader" before attempting to root even with SuperSU/Magisk. On my devices out the 11 deices I owned only 2 are on Kingroot the rest are on SuperSU and I never touch Magisk.

Guys, do TWRP backups work well? I still have the stock and I made a backup of the rom with TWRP, if you install a custom and if you want to go back to the stock, just format data and do the wipes cache date and system, and install the backup?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steveharman:
I've read several old posts saying it can't be done, but if memory serves MIUI 10 on my Mi Mix 3 didn't fire the vibrate mechanism when I used fingerprint unlock.

I'm now on Lineage 16 and the vibrate motor is triggered when I use the fingerprint sensor.

Having said that, I'd still rather be on Lineage than MIUI. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ItsDavidTubeHD:
I had a AT&T S8+, however I thought I didnt get updates so I flashed it to XAA firmware. However, my mobile data was very slow and I am deciding to flash T-Mobile firmware to get 4G LTE. However, I am anxious that my phone will network lock my sim (MetroPCS). Can anyone tell me if it is safe to reflash back from SM-G955U1 to SM-G955U

In my case, I need to wipe cache partition and after that working fine.

1. Power off your device completely

2. Press and hold the power and volume UP keys together until recovery mode appears

3. Use volume buttons to highlight ‘wipe cache partition’ and use power key to select it

4. Reboot the system once the process is completed

Hope that help you.

I had the same issue. I realized that my HiCare region was in Israel (where I live) and not Thailand (where I purchased the device).

I changed it to Thailand and the update was downloading correctly...
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] anhein:
In my case, it happened to me after I updated to 266 emui 9.0 using hisuit.

My hicare region is Singapore and I live in Singapore too.

This message will be disappear if you phone is connected to wifi and rebooted.

Then come back again after your phone is disconnected from wifi.

Finally I found a solution on UK huawei forum to wipe cache partition and did it.

After that it completely go away.

Instructions:

Download the latest build, official TWRP and GApps (if you need them)

Boot the downloaded TWRP via fastboot

Format data, reboot to TWRP via fastboot and wipe system, data and cache

Flash the latest build

Change to opposite slot

Reboot to bootloader and boot TWRP once again

Flash GApps and any other necessary add-ons

Downloads:

Unofficial builds: SourceForge

Recovery: Official TWRP

[Wing, P4350 General] dcmtnbkr:
so i think my wing may be in the process of biting the big one. A few days ago, my wing restarted itself for no reason, i figured it was probably a system error and didnt think twice about it. Now all of a sudden my wing will constantly restart, sometimes in the middle of a call. Sometimes when it does restart the screen will either turn white or fade to white. I reinstalled the original rom to see if it was a software issue and it is still doing it. Also, it doesnt normally do it when it is just sitting there, and sometimes i cant turn it back on. Any ideas?
[Wing, P4350 General] duprade:
Make sure the battery isn't loose inside the case... and that all the prongs are making contact.
[Wing, P4350 General] dcmtnbkr:
For the life of me, i cant figure it out. I know it has to have something to do with the phone not getting power. At this point, it wont even fully turn on. Short of taking it apart and checking the solder, does anyone have any ideas?
[Wing, P4350 General] dougstoner:
If you already reflashed the original rom, and it is still doing it, that tells you it is definitely a hardware issue. It does sound like it's losing power which could be a host of things. (loose battery, defective battery, loose solder on board, etc) I would try what duprade said, and check to make sure your battery has a good connection first. If you had a friend that had a wing as well, you could try his to make sure it's not the battery.
[Wing, P4350 General] dcmtnbkr:
Brand new battery (free from tmo to replace the dynapack) Everything on the mainboard looks like it is soldered well. There is an internal watch batter though, could that have something to do with it?
[Wing, P4350 General] dougstoner:
I doubt it. I would guess that's the cmos battery. If that were to go, then your phone wouldn't keep time, but that wouldn't stop your phone from functioning. (I used to work in the service center at a computer store).
[Wing, P4350 General] dcmtnbkr:
maybe its the processor then. sometimes, after it freezes, it artifacts before shutting off
[Wing, P4350 General] dougstoner:
There is the possibility of you overclocking your phone, and it heated up and could have burned or cracked some solder. It might even be overheating and that's why it reboots. At any rate, it def. sounds like hardware though. :( Sorry man. You could try to resolder the connections on the board just to make sure, but it sounds like you have a paperweight. Is it under warranty or do you have insurance?
[Wing, P4350 General] dcmtnbkr:
only ever oc'd once, for a few minutes, and not very high (like 267 i think) It's on right now on the power cable (this wouldnt work yesterday) I honestly have no fricken clue whats going on with it.

Is it possible for the battery to completely diminish itself without being used for a day? Before it died on me last, it had a full battery, now it is showing 1% (and charging).

By the way, as I stated above, it is a brand new battery sent to me by tmo.
[Wing, P4350 General] dcmtnbkr:
Dang it all! Stupid thing just shut off again... ARG!!!
[Wing, P4350 General] cold83:
Hey dcmtnbkr. I seem to have the exact same problem with my Wing. It shuts off for no reason, and it does it absolutely randomly. Sometimes it would work for 3hrs straight no matter what i use it for. And other times it shuts off every 30sec. and it takes 3 to 10 tries to turn it back on(most of the times it would not get past the windows mobile welcome screen). I was gonna flash it with the newer Rom, but i'm afraid that the damn thing might shut off during flashing :). So i'm stuck. If you find the way to fix it - please let me know.
[Wing, P4350 General] dcmtnbkr:
actually, i just talked to tmo, and apparantly NOW after i told them I'm cancelling when my contract is up, now they can apparantly cover it under manufacturer warranty (as opposed to the last time i called about a week ago) I would call them even if you didnt buy it from them, tell them you dont remember where you bought it, but it was some company online. These phone's arent that old and you may still be under the manufacturers warranty. Also, i would try and flash it back to the original. These phones are very hard to brick, and i would ask around to see if a powerdown in the middle of an upgrade would do it. I just got mine to reflash without a problem.
[Wing, P4350 General] infimis:
my wing rstarts itself wen i jus tap the back of it where the battery cover is but it wont restart everytime. anyone have any ides?

Has anyone reset their phone and done a restore from the on device LG Backup of google authenticator? If so, do the OTP codes still work? I did a test run of my battle.net OTP app (wiping data before deleting it) and it restored and the codes work, but I can't tell if that's because I didn't format data and it was still there. Since there's no root on this device (and rooting it involves wiping it). I can't really be sure.
