vs995 on verizon, rooted stock with xposed on nougat, have the fm radio app pulled from somewhere else on here (maybe from v10 or v30?). it opens but will not allow you to power on the radio. Send me the app
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] neptunej:
Do you still need this xml file?

I will love to test this as I have a F800l board but running a H910 firmware and very compatible but fm radio would not tune. Hoping this would make it work
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ezzony:
Hi, firstly can you tell me if F800L came with or without FM radio originally?

Your remarks about FM not working doesn't look good because if the F800L has the radio capability then it should be visible on H910 after you flashed it. H910 I flashed it on my VS995 and radio worked without any mod.

I need you to send me some file from your device. Go to POST 5 and send me the file I mention to back up in the first step. And tell me how did you flash the H910? Was it official KDZ?

I will probably need more assistance from you to sort this out as I don't have a F800L.

Thanks!
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] neptunej:
I bought the phone as H910 but on opening the board, I found out its a F800L board preloaded with a H910 firmware which works flawlessly without any problem. Also came preloaded with fm radio which would turn on but unable to scan for stations. Tried other offline radio apps like Nextradio apk and still same result. I had to root the phone and flashing it back with F800l firmware using KDZ will make me loose both the fingerprint option and network too. So the resolution was to make use of H910 firmware with a f800L modem which worked perfectly but still can't scan stations on the FM radio.

Here's the link to the file requested as I can't find ways to upload it here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ppkkUMv_yQIvPdqcjUooSYfHNlSMG9VQ

Moreso checking the file structure of F800l and after searching online, the F800l model has no fm radio on the system folder
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ezzony:
Thanks for the file.

One issue is I do not know if F800L has the broadcom fm chip. In which case no software will make it work.

From what I understand you are running AT&T rom. This rom already has all the files I provide in my zip - because that's where I got them from - the H910 AT&T rom. So flashing my zip would just replace the files already there. And as you said FM don't work anyway even though it comes pre-installed.

Not sure what I can do for you except suggest things. There is still a chance F800L has the FM capability and the reason it doesn't work has something to do with the modem files.

If you don't need AT&T I would suggest flashing US996 usa KDZ and use that instead. Then flash my zip. If that doesn't work then it would appear F800L has no fm on the mobo.

If you need AT&T version because I can only think you subscribe with them, I suggest experimenting with modem files if you know what you are doing so not to brick your device. You could try with the US996 usa as it works with mine. I think you would have to do this with a flashable zip or from adb on PC.

You are welcome to flash my zip but I'd be sure it won't make any difference for the reason I already stated.

Btw, did you flash back the H910 with a zip or KDZ? I'm just wondering if something has gone wrong somewhere when you rooted.

EDIT: I had another look at the AT&T version of the file you sent me and there does appear to be stuff missing that should be there on a H910 so I will send you the zip to flash and see what happens. Actually it's not a H910 version at all which is strange. Would you know what that is?

Announcements

Oreo version passed stage 2 of testing.

So no further issues arose after a week of passing thus ready for release. No further adjustments were necessary so no need to update the alpha version if you already have it. That is US996usa, US996bpt and VS995. Any other variants outstanding pls pm me.

I'm just waiting on approval for a developer account on Android File Host and I'll upload them there when done.

Nougat version ready for testing.

This might be a bit trickier as I'm not on nougat but I've done most of the work. Hopefully all. Any volunteer testers may have to work with me a bit if there are any errors. Again please pm me with your variant and I'll send you the DL link.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Vortell:
Do you want me to go back to stock us996 to test this on h915? I can I don't really want to go back to stock h915 ROM but I can try that too if you want me to. I assume it will work due to it being hardware wise the same as h910.

Otherwise I have us996 bpt on noguat if you want to do further testing in it. At least I think it is noguat. The screen burn on it annoys me.

I wonder if this might work in us997 LG G6...
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ezzony:
No thanks, that's way too much trouble.

Nougat is proving much more tricky than I first though but I'm making some progress slowly. I had to downgrade to Nougat myself as getting others to report back issues is just too cumbersome a way of doing it. With the Oreo version I had it working on my device to begin with before I asked anyone to test it. Not so yet with Nougat. I had intended to downgrade to try Helf's modded camera libraries anyway so I can do that now was well. Also some seem to think 7.0 is better performance/battery wise than Oreo, and I will test that claim too. My guess is that I'll probably restore my Oreo regardless.

I don't need any assistance with Nougat for the moment, not util I get it working on my device first.

[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ativi:
Have been testing it on My LG VS995 for couple of days now and it's working great so far here in Accra-Ghana, thanks to you"ezzony" for the effort.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] kato2357:
Works great on vs995! thanks for that.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ezzony:
Download links for the zip are now publicly available in the OP.

As for Nougat - no joy yet. I'm suspending spending time on it because I've reverted back to Oreo which I prefer. I do intend to get a second v20 at some point as I'm immensely satisfied with this device, so I can work on it then. I do believe it is possible to get it to work on Nougat.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] baldybill:
I'm on A-O Oreo ROM, US996. What app do I need to use this (once I flash it)? Or does the flashed file include a radio apk?
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ezzony:
Yeah just flash and your done.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] baldybill:
Flashed it on A-O Oreo ROM, US996 and it runs smooth and perfect. Thank you soo much!
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] baldybill:
After doing a nandroid backup, I flashed the file in recovery. As the OP said, this adds the app for the radio too.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ezzony:
If you don't know how to flash a zip then I'm guessing your not rooted and don't have twrp installed? It can only be installed on rooted devices unfortunately.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] paul999:
can i help test the nouget version?
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ezzony:
There is no nougat version I'm sorry to say. I'm back on Oreo now which I prefer so can't really do anything until I fix up my old v20 with a new mobo. Prolly not till next year. By that time I may have to work on PIE if we ever get it.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] sinnedone:
So can't push the files through using fastboot on non rooted US996?
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ezzony:
I looked into doing it that way for non-rooted devices. What I read told me you still need root permission to write to the /system partition using adb on you PC. I think you can pull /system partition files without root but not write to it. If I'm wrong on this that would be great - just unzip my zip, look at the install script to see the paths for where the files must be placed, take the files from the zip and try to push them. Noting to stop anyone from trying this. My hunch is that it won't work because if you can change files just using adb from PC without root then you wouldn't need root for any mods in the first place.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FoxN:
please send privapp-permissions-lge-elsa.xml

Can anyone please send me a copy of this file from your US99620f Oreo stock before flashing the OP's zip:

privapp-permissions-lge-elsa.xml

Thank you :)

Bump. Thanks to [MENTION=4721914]ezzony[/MENTION] , [MENTION=7601382]C D[/MENTION] , [MENTION=5767632]darkknight200[/MENTION] and anyone else who can help.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] C D:
Here is my file from before flashing the mod on my US996. Note that mine is on the Alpha Omega Oreo ROM (Software version US99620f), so I cannot guarantee that the file is exactly the same as bone stock Oreo.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FoxN:
Thanks very much [MENTION=7601382]C D[/MENTION]. :highfive: Does Alpha Omega Oreo ROM (Software version US99620f) have FM Radio support? If not, then perhaps the file you provided is the same as bone stock Oreo?

I wanted to do a diff to see how the FM Radio mod in this OP changes the file I requested and you kindly attached.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] C D:
It most likely is the same as pure stock; I just can't say for sure since I got my US996 from another user who upgraded phones and already had Alpha Omega Oreo on it.

As far as I know, there is no ROM out there for the US996, VS995, and the Korean V20 models that has FM radio support. This mod is the only way so far to get it.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ezzony:
The xml file is a just list of declarations involved in setting correct permissions to apps that come on stock roms which differ between variants. That's just the way it works. All my adjustment does is add the ones necessary for the FM app, which of course are missing on non FM enabled variants.

The diff is merely this:

<privapp-permissions package="com.lge.systemservice">

<permission name="android.permission.ACCESS_FM_RADIO"/>

<permission name="android.permission.CHANGE_COMPONENT_ENABLED_STATE"/>

<permission name="android.permission.INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS"/>

<permission name="android.permission.READ_LOGS"/>

<permission name="android.permission.SUBSTITUTE_NOTIFICATION_APP_NAME"/>

<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS"/>

</privapp-permissions>

If I were any good at scripting which I'm not It would have been possible to write one to add this into the xml that exists on the device but I took the lazy route and did it manually per variant which is the only reason why there's different versions of the FM installer zip.

The ALPHA_OMEGA rom would have to have the original stock variant xml fiile.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ezzony:
While I'm here, a note on FM for Nougat.

I spend more time on it that I did with the Oreo version but still wasn't able to figure it out. I suspect the reason has something to do with the Nougat Kernel and if it does that is much much harder to fix. It would mean compiling a new Kernel with a fix. I'm currently working on kernel development to make a better kernel for Oreo as there are issues with the now discontinued custom kernels. I'm basically trying to mod the original Oreo kernel to add KCAL with I've done and add the static screen fix which I haven't done, and nothing else. A sorta stock with basic fix's.

Anyone desperate for FM on Nougat (which I doubt) H910 ALPHA OMEGA has FM and WILL install on other variants. Only downside to doing that is I *think* there are some network restrictions on H910, like Hotspot and maybe other stuff cell network related, I don't fully recall. There are workarounds, but would be fine on a second device if you don't use it as your daily driver.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FoxN:
Thanks very much [MENTION=4721914]ezzony[/MENTION] for your very helpful post below and your awesome work to enable FM Radio on our LG V20s! :highfive:

If I understand your reply to me and your reply to [MENTION=2496544]sinnedone[/MENTION] correctly:

regarding the setting of correct permissions to apps that come on stock roms, then is it correct to say that just installing the FM Radio app apk from another FM enabled variant (what are the FM enabled variants? and what is the donor variant for your US996 twrp flashable zip?) would not work because stock rom apps and corresponding stock rom permissions have to be installed in directories that require root permissions? Apologies, I am a noob but eager learner.

You did the hard work, so I would not call it the lazy route at all! :good:

Would it be possible for your twrp flashable zip FM Radio to first backup the existing xml file (are there any other files that are overwritten?), for example as a renamed version with the same permissions, before modifying the original xml file?

Based on your OP "Please do and retain the backup even if you decide to keep it should it be functioning properly" I have not yet encountered a conflict/error due to the modified xml file (the modifications seem fairly innocuous). But I was wondering if some other app/service/security check relies on this xml file or its checksum to be unmodified in order to pass verifications and enable functions. Again apologies, if these are noob questions.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ezzony:
I think I took the doner FM app from a H910. No it won't work just to install the FM apk because the apk does not have all the files required for it to work, that is just the app, what you see. It also requires framework and library files that go in the /system folder and can only be placed there on devices with root privileges.

Yes, that would be possible. But I feel its unnecessary now because the zips basically have the same fille with the added extra. I only suggested backing it up in the beginning manually as a precaution in case something went wrong.

Again I only advised doing that at the beginning as I was being overly cautions given it was my first attempt at a mod zip. No need for it now really. And no, to your latter question.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] llucps:
Do you know whether VS995 variant with LineageOS 17.1 Radio FM is working? I mean since VS995 has the Radio FM chip although not activated by default, I would imagine there wouldn't be a LOS 17.1 image for VS995 unless the Radio FM weren't working as all the other variants H990, H910 etc..

Thanks.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] C D:
No one has figured out how to convert the FM radio to non-stock ROMs since LG does not release their sources. Therefore, it is unlikely that any non-stock ROM such as LineageOS for any V20 variant will ever get FM radio.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] llucps:
So what you're saying is that any LG V20 no matter what variant, under LineageOS the FM radio won't work. Is that correct?

If that's the case, It's just a bit of a surprise, I thought for a ROM to become an official Lineage OS, had to meet some criteria and since some LG V20 variants have official support for Radio FM, then I assumed that this would work on LOS 17.1.

But if that's not the case, then I'll have to cancel my order.. no Radio FM is a no go for me.. :(

Thank you for your help.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] C D:
That is correct. I'm not familiar for the requirements for official LineageOS ports, but clearly, a working FM radio isn't one of them for this phone (and neither are VoLTE or Wi-Fi calling which also most likely will never work on non-stock V20 ROMs).

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] abctablet:
Hey all. I decided to pick up a Note 8 Snapdragon variant LDU on eBay to see if I can get it to work on a stock rom. After researching through numerous posts on XDA and videos on YouTube, I took the plunge and decide to see for myself. I wanted to use a stock rom to get past the 70% battery cap on LDU's.

Some people claimed they were able to get it to run a stock rom and some failed. (Yes, this is a LDU. I bought it from a liquidator on eBay).

Here's exactly what I did (I've tried flashing many different roms, but to no avail).

1. Tried to enable OEM unlocking through developer options using date method = did not work.

2. Found me2151's thread on rooting Snapdragon variant of Note 8 = bootloop with QVPASS = 1 QVDONE = 1 prior to Samsung Note8 logo

3. Found a comment on me2151's thread saying they had the same bootloop... Solution was to check "phone bootloader update" (link here)

4. Tried above method in the comments and checked phone bootloader update = did not work, still on bootloop

5. Downloaded a stock rom for N950XU with Frija. ROM is N950USQS5CRL1, released 2018-12-27

6. Flashed the rom using ODIN v3.13.1_3B patched = did not work, "Security Error: This phone has been flashed with unauthorized software & is locked. Call your mobile operator for additional support. Please note that repair/return for this issue may have additional cost."

7. I'm still able to go into download mode despite that error, but I have no idea what to flash now...

Any help is appreciated! Just want to get it to boot to Android, don't even care if it's the retail rom.

So sammy has said note 10+ wont be working with their VR headsets and they didn't say if they had any plans of making a headset to fit the note 10+.

There are many third party headsets on the market and I was wondering if anyone knows if there is a headset on the market that will fit a note 10+ ?

Might be to early to ask but maybe someone has already been looking based on the measurement of the phone.

Anyways if someone in the future gets a headset that works with note 10+ then please share it with the rest of us.

I believe the only headset that fits with the note 9 is the 235.

I am in the process of ordering that one for my note 9 as I am currently using a personally modified vr headset for the note 7 lol.

I had to cut so much plastic off and grindied the grapping hooks so now it just a matter of time before it breaks.

I'll give it a try when I get both phone and headset.

But just from all the sites that talked about this said none of Sammy's vr would fit the note so I automatically assumed it might be a tad bit to big. I just hope u r right.

A couple of days ago my phone started crashing randomly, so I decided to deactivate all my Magisk packages which seemed to fix the issue, but the next day it crashed again and it wouldn't go past the boot screen anymore. It crashes the moment the three little white boot up dots appear on the screen, so I decided to clear all the data through TWRP and flash a stock rom all over again.

I noticed that Dota Underlords on Android Oreo has horrendous fps, like max 15 fps, and it can easily reach 5... I tried it an Pie and it ran fine, but Pie is missing some things that make me prefer Oreo.
