Twrp booted for me on h93310h. I dont bother disconnecting usb i just do the button dance right away.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] bhq76:
I'm on Pie Now....

btw after flash to H93310h KDZ with LG UP & Select Partition DL, i can't to back TWRP. than download mode, I flash to Pie H93330k. it OK ...

but how to back to US998?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] HoussineOulhaj:
There is one recovery partition that must uncheck is called recovery , don't uncheck recoveryback partition .

To enter twrp just : hold all buttons ( + - power button) until phone turned off and release the volum + only.

When LG logo showing in the screen quicke relase and hold power button , select yes & yes again , your phone will reboted to twrp.

Using Dev Patched LGUP, I refurbished straight from US998 10d to US998 30b on my former LS998 V30+ converted to US998 V30+. Spare phone, it was still on Nougat.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] EstebanxZ:
it is normal to get this prompt everytime i flash something? maybe my phone is messed up.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] EstebanxZ:
tried it like you said, just unselect "recovery" partition and leave "recovery bak" checked, aaand went straight to ERASING screen.

it doesnt have time to overwrite it i dont know why it wont stay, this is exactly what happened:

-lgup was flashing (around 98%) and phone went black

-i immediatly hold vol (-) and power, and as soon as LG V30 logo appears I let go power button for less than a second and press again, at this point the phone hasnt changed its screen ,its still at lg v30 logo so no overwriting

-after 2 or 3 seconds phone goes to prompt screen and i select YES two times, ->black screen followed by erasing screen shortly after
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Are you using Partition DL mode? It will tell you when you are over-writing partitions.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] EstebanxZ:
Yes partition DL mode gives that prompt everytime i flash something,hmm only h933 pie will work on my device but i want root and twrp, and h933 has no fastboot commands ughhh, i will check if i can convert the phone to VS996 pie..
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
The only North American variant with fastboot flash commands is US998.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] EstebanxZ:
so there is no way around, freaking hell this device is so messy, if there is one thing i miss about xiaomi phones is the ease of flashing, unlocking, everything was just like 2 clicks away, this is an horrible experience, just to get the latest official update not even a custom rom or kernel..
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
It's only Pie KDZ which is causing problems.

Everything else with Oreo is easy: Just use Dev Patched LGUP to update to latest KDZ or use TWRP flashable zip to update to latest release. Yes, people have to temporarily convert to US998 to unlock bootloader and install TWRP. But after that, they can flash back to their variant easily with TWRP-flashable zip.

But with Pie, SOME people are having problems getting past the ThinkQ LG logo. Others like me had no problems.

My daily driver is still on Oreo until this weekend, but my spare V30+ refurbished straight to 30b with no issues.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Say yes if you are using Partition DL mode.

Or use Refurbish mode.

-No luck with UCK region kdz.

Pie Features

Thank you [MENTION=3250376]ChazzMatt[/MENTION] for your effort on this, you and other talented devs and the V30 family had spearheaded this device to rise and shine. I won't be updating to Pie any soon, I wish LG did one more Oreo :p since Pie has many restrictions and trying out edXposed will take time also LG screwed up the DTS X and EQ permanently still need to do that on Pie which is funny and too stupid at the same time. I will update once I feel the Firmware is done correctly and has the speed of Oreo and battery life these are most important for Pie flashing onto my V30S.

Edit - Will post later, I think it's not time as many people focus on how phone is working.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
All the US998 links in the Oreo KDZ thread for LG-Firmwares were for UCK, 1UC, UCL (all U.S. Cellular prefixes). While we also had some LG Bridge mirrors (which theoretically could have been for Open Market US998), those were SLOW and most of the time we grabbed the LG-Firmwares links. They were all the same, at least for Oreo.

On the main page, I have changed the US998 30b KDZ LG-Firmwares link to the US998 "UCL" -- but it has same md5 as the one we were using for the past week for the "US998z" -- (whatever that is). :rolleyes:

If someone gets an LG Bridge server link for a native B&H Photo US998 (actual OPEN MARKET US998) Pie KDZ, I'd be curious to see if it's any different.

Thanks!
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
"10c" would be Nougat. "1216" would then be mid-December 2017. (10d was very last Nougat before Oreo.)

What firmware are you on right now.-- Nougat still? Like 10b, maybe? If you are, and take that update, you'll probably then get the other newer updates.

If you get to to Pie, please let me know what you see?

Hello everyone, I've been trying to update to pie, got the h931 converted to us998 Oreo 20h, and I was going to do the workaround since when I flash pie got stock at the LG logo no matter what. Now when I go to download mode to do the first step and flash the 20 h refurbished with LGUP, the phone gets on the waiting connection and would not connect to the PC. Before when I first transformed didn't have the problem, and I know the PC has the LG drivers other than that the phone gets recognized by the PC. How can I correct this issue. Thank you guys in advance.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] 1031982:
If an image for the open market US998 comes out, I will flash it from the US Cellular image I have running. I'm sure there are some differences.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Not disagreeing with you -- but for Nougat and Oreo there were no differences.

All the KDZ listed in the US998 Oreo KDZ thread from LG Firmwares site are technically "U.S. Cellular" images, as are all the TWRP-flashable zips. Because there was no difference, and the last Open Market US998 KDZ posted on LG Firmwares was from Nougat... (Some of the LG Bridge sever links for Oreo KDZ may be Open Market. Don't know, don't care.)

However, the additional unwanted games and AccuWeather app to the U.S. Cellular PIE 30b KDZ makes me hope there is a difference with the Open Market Pie KDZ, and I hope it's more "compatible" to flashing for people who are having problems.

I had no problems flashing to US998 30b PIE KDZ via Refurbished mode on my spare US998 V30+, which was originally an LS998 V30+. I've not yet flashed my or my wife's daily drivers to Pie.

If you find a legit Open Market US998 Pie KDZ and the md5 is DIFFERENT from the one we have, please let us know.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] 1031982:
I'm not disagreeing with that, my whole assessment is based on the fact that if you go into the Update Center, then App Updates, there are two apps that are US Cellular apps listed.

Your Navigator Deluxe and Tone Room Deluxe.

I figured I would install them and try them out, but they both splash a US Cellular screen and just error out. I assume that they error because they are looking for the US Cellular server which would be verified through a SIM card.

Aside from that, I'm sure the differences would be negligible.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Interesting! I had not even opened those apps. I did uninstall all the useless games. Pie is installed on my spare USS98 V30+, so to be honest I've not delved into it much...

But based on your observations, yeah, there should be a different Open Market US998 KDZ!

OK, let's hope it comes soon!
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] mon0theist:
Just reporting in, followed the TWRP-specific instructions and it worked first try. It looked like it was boot looping at first, and then it looked like it was going to be stuck on the LG logo, but eventually it booted into the ROM and seems to be working so far.

Although now I'm wondering if I should've waited for the open-market-specific US998 KDZ to be released :\

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Your last question makes me think you did NOT follow the instructions post #6, because of course you need unlocked bootloader to have TWRP.

Post #6 is not pick and choose what steps you want to do. It's follow each step, then do the next.

It works for everyone, who can't just flash KDZ straight. You have to prep the phone.

We've told you how to fix it...

Asking again and again won't get you different answers until the Open Market US998 PIE KDZ is released.

You have unlocked bootloader and TWRP and[ B] flashed to H933 Nougat via Partition DL mode while omitting Recovery partition. [/B]You then booted to TWRP and flashed US998 20e TWRP flashable zip? You then Refurbished to 20h?

wifi issues

Hi All

Does anybody have problems with wifi connection on subj?

I have VS996 converted to US998. Never had any issues. No root, no boot unlock. Latest installed 20h.

Upgraded to 30b using REFURBISH. Process went smoothly.

Then I have connected wifi, passed through initial setup, updated applications and services. All OK. Then I had inserted SIM and wifi begun gets crazy. During several seconds or minutes it is disconnects and shows status "saved". I can kick it manually, it connects, start transferring data and then go off again. Tested two different routers. Wifi working stable only without SIM inserted.

I heard that the UPGRADE option does not cause such problems, but never tested by myself. Reverted back to 20h.

So, I would think that the current Pie-ROM (US998Z) has differences in modems adjustments, adopted for US Cellular.

When you get to the point where you are rebooting after the H933 with TWRP, you have to use the "hardware button dance" immediately to get back to TWRP.

How many recovery partitions did you uncheck in LGUP? Did you uncheck both recovery and recovery.bak by any chance?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] martin_yo:
After you do the dance button, that should take you to twrp is it not?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] HueyT:
What happened here is yhwh111 did not do the "button dance" fast enough after flashing H933-10d so H933-10d flashed stock recovery back (despite unchecking recovery and recovery.bak in LGUP). H933-10d will reflash stock recovery even if you unchecked these partitions. Losing download mode is known and that's why you need US998-20E to regain download mode.

At this stock receovery (dead android) point, you must push vol. up and power at the same time, several time until you get into stock recovery mode. Then you wipe data or factory reset. Then it should boot into H933-10d. Sometimes download mode comes back once you setup H933-10d which should work fine for GSM (no CDMA). Look into H933 thread where they show how to flash TWRP via adb shell using "dd" commands.

VOLTE and Date while calling

Hi All,

Speaking to the differences between this version and the true "open market" version, I've noticed that VoLTE (advanced calling, hd voice) is missing. I've also noticed that I lose 4g data while a call is in progress.

I flashed the US99830b_00_0902.kdz over US99820h. I am on Verizon's cellular network.

I also notice VoLTE options are missing in the "hidden menu". Is this because the pie rom linked is not the true open market rom?
