I also have a v40 with the bootloader unlocked (can enable USB debugging in Developer tools), but whenever I try to boot to fastboot mode (either from recovery or adb) it just boots back to normal Android OS.

Were you ever able to figure this out?

Yes, just not officially

The process to unlock your bootloader is a bit more "involved" than just simply flipping a switch..
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] skippybosco:
I've been on Android for 10 years, originally with the Galaxy S1 and many devices across multiple manufacturers.. The ability to "Enable OEM Unlock" at all has been a key indicator of whether the bootloder was unlocked. This was true for all of my devices, up to my LG v30 that I continue use for my daily driver.

The v40 was the first device that allowed me to enable OEM Unlock without the bootloader being unlocked, which is why I was confused.

Thanks for the reply.

Hi, how can I contact him?
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
Almost every Android I've had allowed me to enable OEM unlock....since for the most part it needs to be ticked on so that you can unlock it...
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] skippybosco:
Right. That was my point as well.

https://en.droidwiki.org/wiki/OEM-Unlock

Enabling OEM Unlock itself does not unlock the bootloader, but you can not unlock the bootloader unless it is unlocked.

This is the first device I've used that allowed me to enable OEM Unlock, but DID NOT allow me to unlock the bootloder. For other devices that had a locked bootloader, the first step of enabling OEM Unlock wasn't even an option, it was either missing altogether, or it was greyed out and unchangeable. That was my confusion.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
With the OG LG Stylo the boost variant was the only one that couldn't be unlocked but OEM unlock was tickable we managed to root it but couldn't use TWRP that was available for the other 2 carrier variants....

[Android Auto General] Timberleone:
I'm a Youtube Premium member and using YouTube Music for a while now in my car with Android Auto. I used to do voice searches all the time (Okay Google play Song x) and this worked great!

Suddenly (about a month ago) a voice search for a song in Android Auto doesn't work anymore. I get a 'Cannot play song' from YouTube Music.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled Android Auto (tried several versions, but now running the latest one) and YouTube Music but get the same result. I can play music from YT music only the voice searches don't work any longer (other voice searches from Android Auto do work). When I give the same voice command to my Google Home Mini the song plays without a problem.

Any suggestions how to get this to work again?
[Android Auto General] Timberleone:
Anyone?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] LuDi_GliSa:
Hello everyone,

I have problem with my s7, after trying to flash stock several times using odin, I am always getting s7 logo, and than blue screen with Erasing... , than it would restart with same pattern two or tree times and than shut down. I can only go in download mode, cant boot into recovery.

My phone is SM-G930F. I am pretty sure that I downloaded correct firmware. Maybe I did mess up something, any help is welcome.

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cooltt:
Firmware is United Kingdom BTU. Download latest version flash then just wait for it to boot. The blue screen with erase is normal, leave it do it, eventually it will reboot into start.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] LuDi_GliSa:
But that blue screen shows for few seconds and than phone restarts and does that again two times and than finally shuts down.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cooltt:
Yes and I'm saying it's a normal process just after flashing. If the flashing was done correctly then it will reboot after the blue screen.

What firmware was on the phone originally? And what country are you? Where are you getting the firmware from?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] LuDi_GliSa:
I am from Serbia so I am using SEE, I am getting firmware from sammobile. But when I try to boot phone again it does the same thing.

Does Odin give you a "pass" after flash?

What version of Odin?

Are you following flash steps in correct order?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] LuDi_GliSa:
It does give me: "PASS". 3.13.3 (tried 3.13.1 also). As far as I know there are only few steps, download, unpack zip, choose in odin for bl, bl file, for ap, ap file and same for cp and csc and than flash. Am I right or am I missing something?:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cooltt:
Do you also get an .md5 file from Sammobile when unzipped?

Leave phone connected to pc after "pass" until it's finished rebooting and blue screen etc.

When the phone shuts down you can then boot into recovery by volume up+home+power?

Sometime you have to force it into recovery and wipe/factory reset if it just
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] LuDi_GliSa:
Yes files are .md5, for some reason I cant boot into recovery(It just goes to the same blue screen), I am confused :confused::confused::confused::(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cooltt:
Flash again using CSC

not

Home_CSC

Also you must be able to boot into recovery, even from the download screen.

when the phone is off, you press volume up+home+power and the phone does what?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] LuDi_GliSa:
Yes, I used CSC one, when holding button combination phone boots same as when I hold just power button.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cooltt:
This is correct but you keep all buttons pressed until the Recovery menu appears.

If you flash the correct firmware with Odin and it gives you a "Pass" then the recovery menu is there on the phone. It can sometimes be tricky to get into if your phone goes into a boot loop but the menu is definitely there.

You can try just volume up+power but the normal way to access is volume up+home+power and keep them pressed until menu appears. Also the phone HAS to be off before you do this.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] LuDi_GliSa:
I am not sure why it is not opening recovery menu, but it seems like its trying to boot into it (phone screen changes to black for a second and than goes to blue screen again).

Pie KDZ is encrypted from LG. If you install/reinstall TWRP after flashing Pie KDZ, you have to flash the encryption disabler. And not even the one that we used on Oreo but a newer one we got back in July 2019.

Sounds like you didn't flash the newer encryption disabler that's been in all the Pie instructions and even posted in WTF Instructions. You have to flash Magisk first, then the decryption disabler, then the RCTD remover, format your data, reboot back to TWRP recovery from within TWRP recovery to make sure everything is fine, then flash Magisk one last time before finally rebooting to OS. I had to re-write WTF Instructions (the order and new files) to make it work with Pie.

Go read here:

INSTALL TWRP/REINSTALL TWRP AFTER FLASHING PIE KDZ WITH UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER

https://xdaforums.com/lg-v30/how-to/wtf-lg-v30-t3790500/post79972584#post79972584

A link to those instructions is in every Pie KDZ thread I maintain, which has fastboot flash commands.

These instructions are NOT included in the Pie TWRP-flashable zip notes, because the devs already REMOVE ENCRYPTION for the TWRP-flashable zips. It's ONLY needed if you flash Pie KDZ with unlocked bootloader, then want to install or reinstall TWRP and root. (H933 doesn't have a TWRP flashable zip just yet, so you must have flashed KDZ and didn't flash this newer encrytion disabler.)

Yes, JohnFawkes says he wants to improve his RCTD remover even more (to remove all traces), but that has nothing to do with encryption.

With Pie, I initially used a test version of [MENTION=6037748]Zackptg5[/MENTION] encryption disabler he made in July 2019. Then in August 2019 (08/08) he finalized it and that's one posted for all the Pie KDZ that have fastboot flash commands. Right near the top of post #1 of US998 (see attached screenshot), EU H930, and India H930DS. It's also attached to the WTF instructions and with same instructions on how to use it, in the TWRP installation section 6...

Canada H933 and Verizon VS996 don't have fastboot flash commands, so I don't post links to those TWRP instructions in those Pie KDZ threads, as it would just cause confusion. Canada H933 Pie KDZ will soon have a TWRP-flashable zip by [MENTION=3138121]seadersn[/MENTION].
