[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] supra661:
I'm wondering the same thing. Since Sprint and T-Mobile are now the same company, it seems impossible to ignore the fact that a Sprint phone that once was on the Sprint network should naturally be able to function 100% on the T-mobile network when transitioned. Heck, they don't even call sprint storefronts "Sprint" anymore. They're all T-Mobile.

I've tried to do the ##DATA# thing and get into settings there. I've found that SOME settings are now properly transitioned to T-mobile but others seem tied to Sprint. I cannot edit any of those because when I try, I get a pop up asking for a "service code". Does anyone know how I might go about obtaining the appropriate "service code" to enter in and enable editing of some of these things?? I've got a T-mobile branded older phone I can copy/mimic settings from. But until I can make the edits I'm stuck.

Still, that's just a stab in the dark really. At the end of the day, I'm seeing where calls work fine from most service areas local to me, yet, when I'm at home I get 2-3 bars of LTE service, internet works fine with wifi disabled, and yet I can't place or receive calls at home. WiFi calling doesn't work either so I end up using Google Voice for WiFi Calls. When I try to update PRL, it just sits and spins indefinitely until I hit "cancel". When I try to update Profile, it tries for a little while then tells me "Authentication Error. Please try again later." ..........That's why I want to go into the ##DATA# menu and be able to enter the service code to make edits that align with t-mobile's settings on my older LG V20 phone. I'm hoping maybe something in those settings will help it with profile and PRL updates, and maybe just maybe that will get it working right in my home.

Try this on the dialer ##72786#. It does a network reset, and after had the correct APN settings for T-Mobile. I didn't use T-Mobile long - it was just a test with an extra SIM.
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] supra661:
The thing is my APN settings are actually correct for T-Mobile. I got those to refresh properly after a little tinkering.

Prefer to avoid a network reset because that also blows away literally all of my saved WiFi info. The things that are still goofed up are settings like "browser"going to UaProfURL of "Http : // device.sprintpcs.com /LG/ V50P-SPRINT /default.rdf"... I'm thinking maybe that has something to do with the authentication error when I try to get it to update profile or why it hangs when I try to update PRL... but again I'm stabbing in the dark.
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] antintin:
You will never be able to get volte working without root, or wifi calling, unless t mobile provisions Sprint phones with an update. I think you can get rid of what you mentioned above by debloating
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] aldamon:
Do you have any good social engineering tips to get Hello to give MSL over their FB Messenger presence? They're difficult to contact.
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] globalfone:
I am also wondering this... and if not, are there any MVNOs who show the MSL within the account?

Best,

T-Mobile will disable 2G and 3G voice calling in Jan, and without a way to enable VoLTE, which is T-Mobile proprietary, V50 cannot be used on T-Mobile network. It will be kicked off from their network. The good news is T-Mobile offers to Sprint users discount to upgrade to S20 5G. The bad news is that also means they have no plans to support VoLTE on Sprint phones.
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] antintin:
You can get it working with root, but it's so sad tbh. They could easily provision the sprint phones, but they just want to force people onto their contract
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] acefr:
The problem is there is no root for this device.
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] antintin:
There is if you didn't update
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] toodyloo:
No carrier wants to deal with this phone, not even lg, sprint or t-mobile. They all want to pass the buck to the other and offload this phone to suckers who would buy it. Due to this merger, this phone is a POS.

It only has limited functionality with all carriers (including sprint) and the only other best option is a possible upgrade from LG through warranty service or a discount on an upgrade or change of phone through t-mobile but unlikely.

No carrier is addressing this phone that fell through the cracks or any other sprint phone acquired during the merger with t-mobile. Most carriers haven't even heard of this phone or have no experience or knowledge so unhelpful.
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Carapace:
Why would T-Mobile cripple the Sprint LMV450PM V50 model after acquiring Sprint? Seems hostile and doesn't make sense. Are we sure this really true?
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] en11gma:
i have been following this real close with t-mobile.

we had bought two used lg v50 off ebay almost 2 years ago (they are sprint version).

we used them with metropcs for over a year and volte worked great (no 5g in this area at that time).

we then moved our phones to t-mobile because they said if they worked with metropcs they would work with t-mobile so we moved em.

for the last 5 months dealing with t-mobile has been a living hell.

inching us along through countless hours of tech support and customer care and supervisors and managers and several follow ups.

we finally got 5g in our area a couple months ago and our phones still dont work with volte.

they only offered a $100 one time credit.

we told them several times this is a bait and switch but they dont care.

whenever we send/receive a sms/mms or call or receive call it drops down to 3g network and then when you finish it goes back to 5g.

soon 3g will be gone then what?

when we came to them we didnt get any kind of a promo because our phones were good. 5g, 128GB storage, 6GB ram, 6.4" screen and huge battery.....why would we want a contract???

anyhow they only want us to sign our lives away for 2 years and we dont qualify for any promos because we are not new customers.

just saying im my own personal opinion they are a CRAP company.

so now im looking on ebay and craigs for some phone that im going to have to pay out of pocket just because there is no volte.

lg should unlock all bootloaders to all phones since they going out of business.

anyhow very very frustrated.

if anyone knows a way to get volte working as it should i would pay a little bit of money.

we have two lg v50 that we would need this done too.

we are on latest firmware so i know that makes it more difficult.
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] trasixes:
So I'm on a T-mobile MVNO, and my Sprint V50 is working fine. Does this mean volte is working?

I can make/receive calls, and texts - data also works.
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Carapace:
Do you have any icons at the top of the screen for LTE and VoLTE?
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] trasixes:
4G/LTE symbols, no VoLTE symbol, though. Internet worked during an active call. The phone app also said HD+ voice, or similar. Maybe my understanding was incorrect, but I thought non-volte phones won't function on T-Mo's network?
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Carapace:
No, Tmo still has access for non-VoLTE phones. My current phone uses 3G on Tmo and lacks 4G altogether. But come October 2021 Tmo plans to shut down their 3G network. I don't think that will affect you because you have an LTE connection which means you're at least on their 4G network. You might have to do some more investigation on the VoLTE concern.

When I was looking to buy the V50 I passed on it because of warnings about Tmo and VoLTE compatibility. This was mentioned on Slickdeals when the phone went on sale from an eBay merchant.
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] trasixes:
Ahh great, tyvm for the info.
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] v941726:
Yes. Tmo has a SIM that will give you all you need. Tell them your question here. They'll hook you up.

Is it possible to get Portal to work on our phone? I have all the files and Gltools installed and configured. But when I launch the game it tells me "download failed" and just has me quit.

The obb files are in the correct place so at this point I'm not sure if it's a problem with android Pie or if anyone has a workaround for this?? Reddit was no help.

Does anyone know if the dual sim version of Samsung note 10 plus are Dual Sim Active or Dual Sim Passive? Also can I use 2 different carriers such as Tmobile and Verizon for the Dual Simon the Note 10 plus? Thanks

Hello all

Today I picked up a fire 7 tablet. I got it to hopefully root it and delete useless apps and install my own apk and also put mp4 on it since we do alot of traveling it would be good for the kids. So my question is I see all these videos and tuts on how to root it and stuff but they are all outdated soni looking for a specific one that I can go to and do step by step. I seen one on here but the coding part is tricky for me. I'm gonna reread the post on here about it and see if I can get it to work any other ideas or information would be great thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Reystar22:
Any ideas if Samsung finally will update Android on their phones including the new Note 10/10+ fast this year? P30 Pro will have acces to Android Q Beta this September...any news for the Note?

Was a reason i moved away from Samsung phones, i really like the Note 10 + and i really want to purchase it but, can't stand waiting month for the new Android version...

So what you think?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] winol:
Just get a device you REALLY like, do not waste time thinking about the OS that is the newest
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Reystar22:
A phone is hardware and software not just hardware. The software is very important to me
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] PsiPhiDan:
If timely OS updates is high on your priority list, you bought the wrong phone.

I have owned the Note5, Note7, Note8, and Note9. I recall the Note 8 update to Oreo occurred the April after it was released, and the Note9 Pie update occurred in February after it was released (carrier versions, anyway). So you're looking at Q1 2020 for the update.

However, half the time the Android updates contain things that Samsung has already had in their software for a year or two, so... it's not that big a deal. That said, I still am always super excited when it happens (so I get it).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Hazzay88:
I don't see Samsung getting the Android Q update anytime soon. Huawei is lucky in that sense as they will be releasing the Mate 30 Pro with Android Q running out of box. So it is imminent the P30 Pro will follow.

Emui 10 is basically one ui copy cat. So we are not missing anything
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Hazzay88:
You are missing Android 10
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Belimawr:
really if you care about the android updates as soon as possible just go to a Pixel device. on the other hand just buy a phone you like and get the updates when they come, an android update doesn't really change a lot, a lot of what is added to the base android are features that are common among third parties, so for a device from a manufacturer like Samsung all the android update means is you get a bigger number and some of the phones features move from the Samsung UI to base Android.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] torickray:
Not really. We already have dark mode, swipe navigation.

Nothing really excited about Android 10

What I missed the most is the call recorder ability which they removed since android 9. I don't see it coming back in Android 10.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] winol:
Software is important for EVERYBODY, what I tried to tell you is this: if you like/want a note10 device, it works fine as it is, it will update in due course, if the updates are your most uttmost concern, then a pixel would be the perfect choice for you, it is well known that samsung is never the first to issue updates, knowing this, better get something else
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
After seeing the YouTube video of One UI 2.0 over Android 10, I can't see anything that exciting. Android 9 (RIP desserts) runs great, and 10 looked like a very incremental update.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] nycinsane01:
Just enjoy your phone you just got it . Q will come orob will get 10 and 11 . Let's get 9 working good before we think of getting 10

You are missing more than that. You are missing the new notifications implementation and battery saving optimisation. A few other added new features. That is why I hate Samsung with their updates. Very slow about 6 months late
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Belimawr:
there is a reason to change the notifications? they work fine the way they are. as for battery saving, last time they did those my Pixel XLs battery use went terrible.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Hazzay88:
I had the Pixel 2 XL and when the update came through my battery life improved which was already good but improvement in any department is good.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] torickray:
Why should you come to this forum and complain about Samsung update when you know how they work?

We all know the update will take some time to be available since the moment we buy it. We like this phone not because of the google update that we eventually will get, but because of the features that not available even with latest google update.

You should buy pixel and iphone then. Or huawei.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] winol:
Exactly
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] gottahavit:
I've only had one recent "need" for an android upgrade(Wireless android auto), just to find out that after we got it that google had restricted the feature to google devices. After 6 months of google claiming it was the Samsung's issue, even though no other brands worked either, they came out with a "beta" that enabled Wireless AA on other devices, no patches from samsung required.

There are so few important updates in Android these days, it's the least of my concerns.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] boneriffic:
:confused:

OK, so I've been getting the August OTA nagging for a bit, and I finally decided I needed to read some instructions on things and get it on my already rooted phone.

I started with...

1. Unlocked bootloader

2. Root on the stock ROM

3. TWRP 3.3.0-0 recovery installed

4. Magisk 19.3 (19300) installed

5. Windows installed platform tools/drivers/etc

What I did...

1. Downloaded the factory image

2. Removed the "-w" from the fastboot update image line in the batch file

3. Ran that batch file... the 1st bootloader bit went fine, but the reboot seemed to not reconnect the phone via usb

4. Unplugging the usb and replugging it successfully seemed to trigger the 2nd radio update bit, and again the reboot left the batch file hanging

5. Unplugged and replugged and the final fastboot update for the image fails saying something about memory (I didn't save what was on screen because CMD.exe closed when I pressed a key).

6. I try to reboot and it gets in a boot loop. Bootloader unlocked screen to all white G screen and back again.

I figured I'm screwed. Might as well give up and do the Sultan ROM...

7. Launch recovery and get into TWRP

8. ADB Push the most recent Sultan Kernel to the phone from my PC

9. Flash Sultan in TWRP

10. Flash TWRP in TWRP

11. Flash Magisk in TWRP

12. Reboot

And here I am looking at my original setup, with all my apps and data. I still have root. No August patch installed, but my Kernel is 4.4.169-Sultan. So....

I have so many questions.

What went wrong?

What went right?

Sultan doesn't seem any different at all... is that part not right?

What do I do now?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] ilal2ielli:
You can try using a different cable or USB port to see if that takes care of the flashing issue. Sometimes that's all it takes.

I would also double check your fastboot/adb files to make sure they are the latest from Google.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] khemu:
I have an O2 Atom and tried ALL the ROMS - WM5 / WM6 / WM6.1 in this forum.

Question: WM6 Phone application has a kinda Idle Timeout or something which automatically shows Today Screen after about 10 seconds of idle time on Phone Application. How can the same be replicated in WM5 ?

Tried with Mortscript, did'nt work and the script went heavy on the system (because of while loop)

Desperately looking for a solution......:)

What I want is that after a call has ended, 10 secs or so later Phone App should close/hide. In WM6 this happens, but in WM5 Phone App stays on screen indefinitely!

[Android Head-Units] Maxmicron:
Looks like a lot of these Chinese universal head units all use the same hardware but then each manufacturer has different firmware, I bought a Hizpo unit a few years ago with 2gb/32gb ram and an Octa-core A7, the face of the unit looks the same as 2019 model but is running the more current os 9.x :D

Could I use firmware from another manufacturer say Joying? :laugh:

[Sony Cross-Device General] ultenhiemer:
Hi everyone,

I am looking for some guidance on purchasing a used Sony phone. Specifically I am looking for a device that can be easily rooted as well as being as close as possible to the latest device(s) to do this.

I am kind of lost on my search, so I am putting it to the community to help me. I know I read somewhere that Sony did things differently after 2015 with their devices making it harder to root. So if thats the limit, I am willing to accept it.

I am particularly looking for devices that already have exploits and can be rooted regardless of if the bootloader is locked or not by the mobile networks. But also a phone with strong enough specs, maybe an old flagship device that has this availability now that it's old.

In the past I have had a Sony Xperia Z3 (D6603) and that was easy to root regardless of the bootloader being locked. So essentially I would like something newer than that with the same rooting capabilities. As buying used cant ever guarantee that it can be rooted due to possible mobile network restrictions.

Thank you for your time reading this, hopefully I have posted in the right section (Do tell me off if I haven't). Also thank you for the help to those willing to give it, I'd appreciate the support.

Sony Xperia z5p is 2017 flagship with nought 7.1 I have rooted since the day I bought.... It's easier to root just search Xperia z5p E6833 ......... If you need help with that just PM me
[Sony Cross-Device General] ultenhiemer:
Thank you for your information, it has actually been really helpful. However, it should be noted that Sony Xperia Z5 Premium is a 2015 flagship, not a 2017. It's easier to root because it doesn't have dm_verity protecting the bootloader (I believe), which was introduced into phones after 2015.

Though do you know you can actually restore lost functionality of the Sony Xperia Z5 Premium, after the TA partition has been deleted as a result of root and you lose all the DRM keys. Here's the thread on here:

Hi guys,

I've ordered mine on augutus 12 and I received an SMS today saying that my phone will be delivered later...

I noticed that the phone was a bit cheaper in Belgium, excluding VAT, France 939,93€, Belgium 908,26€.

After some research,

it would seem

that, in Belgium, we would not receive the case and the screen protector.

This could explain why it is cheaper.

If someone in Belgium receive his, can you confirm ?

Thanks
