[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] bandario:
Alright, first and foremost howdy, hello, g'day and greetings. My first post in the LG V30 forums.

Received NIB LG V30+ yesterday to gift to my wife for her birthday, seller could not confirm origin or intended country of sale but is labelled US998 on box and in hardware info so I am treating it as unbranded genuine US998.

This is the most esoteric and bizarre process I've ever had to follow since rooting the S7 Active but after laying out the salt circle and drawing a perfect pentagram I have finally had a win, thank god I chose the correct model otherwise it may have been even more difficult! I had been lurking here for a while before buying.

So far I've followed the WTF guide and successfully unlocked BL so massive thanks to Chazzmatt and other contributors. Have just successfully flashed this ROM via TWRP so another thank you to JohnFawkes.

After a brief wrestle with Magisk and losing access to recovery I got back in via ADB and once again have Magisk, root, unlocked BL and latest version of rom...has now been gifted and wife seems happy with it...let's just hope she doesn't throw this one on the ground.

I keep seeing things like this around the forum: "ALSO do NOT update to Pie yet if you wish to run AOSP/Linage custom ROMs -- at least for now. See reason here. Issue will be fixed in near future."

Have I shot myself in the foot here by flashing this ZIP version of Pie via TWRP? Once Havoc or LiquidRemix are updated to Android 10 I think I would like to transition over to one of these roms. Obviously I'll have more reading to do by then, but I'm wondering in their current state are the AOSP roms useable? If you were to lose proper camera or fingerprint sensor functionality I don't think it would be a wise move for me, there seems to be a bit of chaos in all AOSP rom threads at present.

Anyway, thanks again all contributors here. I have to say I am extremely impressed by how well the V30+ is holding up as a device for 2019. In spite of having only just re-flashed my note9 two days ago, the V30 actually seems snappier and after hearing that Quad DAC push a decent pair of headphones I'm actually quite jealous!
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
Love good reports like yours!

Yeah I think the AOSP/Lineage custom ROMs for Pie will be sorted out. Has to do with Pie blobs, etc.

Until then you can run edXposed with Gravity Box, etc if you want some customization.

Not working for me, settings just crashes when I try to enable it.. It was working fine for me on Oreo too.

Any known fixes or any information would be great, as I depend on WiFi calling to use the V30 as a daily driver. Ty.

---------- Post added at 06:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:17 AM ----------

Could this be why WiFi calling does not work for us T-Mobile/Mint SIM users?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
Possibly, yes.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] DarkFamiliarity:
In the event of a new zip being released, would I just be able to dirty flash that over the current 30b zip? Curious to see if I can start using 30b on the daily for now. Thanks.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
OK, changed back to H933 10h Nougat for the workaround in

US998 KDZ post #6

-- for those who get stuck on the LG logo on Pie 30b. VS996 Nougat partitions (previous choice) should have been more compatible with US998 -- but it didn't work for at least one person, while H933 did.

Hi guys, does anyone have widevine L1 ?, I flased us99830b zip and i don't have widevine L1 and i can't see hdr on netflix
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] webslasher:
Just want to report back, clean flash to 30B rom 20B seems to be working fine, I did the WTF unlock before updating to pie. Only problem I met was a weird one. Apparently my desktop PC can't do fastboot command properly. Everytime I send the recovery img it always returned an error or would stuck at "SENDING". Changing cable, different ports didn't work. Intensive searching about similar problem redirected me to something about Ryzen desktop unable to flash recovery in this thread

True enough, I switched to my laptop and fastboot flash recovery command completed in just 1 second, and now i'm running Pie :D

I know this has been said over and over, DONT JUST WIPE DATA you have to FORMAT DATA to remove the encryption, you may think you have not set up any encryption, but stock LG rom DOES encrypt your internal data and even if you flashed opt-encrypt, you still have to remove the old encryption and this can only be done by formatting data, not wipe data.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
Amazing how many V30 owners also have Ryzen PCs. We've seen that mentioned over and over in the WTF instructions thread.

And thanks for reiterating the data format. I try to make it clear in the Instructions but some people skim, don't pay attention. ;)

Latest win10 update also breaks v30 usb driver; had to roll back to restore point from 9/26/19. Reinstalling lg drivers did NOT work on latest win10 update (win10 v1903)
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] spacepirates:
I had no problem initially booting after installing the 30b zip, but I opted NOT to install magisk 19.3 at the same time.

I did have issue getting back into TWRP (to flash magisk) using the vol down & power key; I was trying to do the quick-release on the animated red LG logo (which it never got to when holding down those keys).

quick-releasing the power button on the lg v30 thinq screen and then going through the factory reset menus (which did not actually reset the phone) got me into TWRP, which I then used to flash magisk and now I'm on rooted Pie. It was not clear when to do the quick-release from other posts ("at the lg logo" is ambiguous to me), but this post helped.

Thanks!
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mrsubway:
You hold volume down and power. The second the phone starts to boot, release power whilst still holding volume down, and tap power again for a second and release. It's tricky.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] JohnFawkes:
True us998 30b kdz is out. Will be making a flash able for it. For those that have/had issues with the current zip please try the newest zip (when I release it). For those without issues you can flash as well if you want but why fix what isn't broke?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] galapagos:
It's the exact same ROM as the previously released version.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
But now people can't complain it's for US998z. ;)

Thus, identical files--don't bother remaking zip John.

[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
How many "USA" firmware files do you see on LG Firmwares? Not many.

We need someone who gets an LG Bridge link.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] lingo2012:
The only USA firmware I see is the nougat kdz.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] lingo2012:
The last one on this page.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
Exactly. My point. Up to now for Oreo we've always used the U.S. Cellular KDZ and it worked fine.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] lingo2012:
The H933 kdz method you posted worked perfect for me. Before it was just stuck at the lg logo. Its a few extra steps but it didnt take long at all. Everythings working as it should. Before I tried your post I was on rooted H933 pie.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] DarkFamiliarity:
Can I dirty flash it over US998Z? Thanks.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] justanutt:
Recently updated to pie via twrp. Everything went well, almost everything works. Amazon music works on Bluetooth headphones but when I disconnect them the music starts to cut out and will not playback correctly. Any suggestions or others with this issue?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Osprey00:
I think that you'll be fine. The one Android 10 ROM that I know of, the LineageOS 17.0 Alpha, is based on Pie blobs just like stock Pie is. LiquidRemix is based on LineageOS, so its Android 10 release will be based on Pie blobs, too, and I imagine that Havoc will, as well. Since you'll be going from one ROM based on Pie blobs to another, you shouldn't encounter the issue that's being warned about (which comes up only if going back to an Oreo-blob-based ROM, such as every current Pie custom ROM). Even if you do encounter it, though, it's not hard to work around it like so.

BTW, I'm a relatively new V30 owner, myself, having had mine less than a couple of months. It's nice reading that I'm not alone in picking up this phone in late 2019.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] DarkFamiliarity:
That's interesting, I wonder if Stock Pie was released with completely broken WiFi calling? I hope that is not the case.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Kaybozz:
Finally, I have a breakthrough. I'm running on US998 pie after a long-suffering. Big thanks to JohnFlawkes for his magic TWRP zips;) and most especially ChazzMatt for all of his wonderful posts and support:D:D:D

After back and forth on getting stuck. I carefully followed the WTF #5 & #6 thread https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=76584629&postcount=193 for Bootloader Unlock and Root then jump to this thread https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=80347089&postcount=6 :o I just want pie by all means and get rid of getting stuck on logo whenever there's an OTA update.

I was successful in loading the pie but then I still want to be able to flash KDZ files so I got back to TWRP flashed US99820h.zip rebooted everything still works fine as expected then booted to LGUP refurbished US99830b KDZ went successful and the phone booted fine...AT LAST;)

Additional

I don't like the unlocked bootloader startup screen and I would like to restore all that I've done from bootloader unlocking/root etc. I then switched off boot into recovery mode and lock the bootloader via "fastboot oem lock".. success:D while that is done I quickly checked my download mode if it is still working then I saw Modified / E / L / RO / id : 0() written in red note.:confused::mad:

Now with one mind, I refurbished using oreo US99820h KDZ... phone rebooted and my heart skips but finally success :fingers-crossed: boot back again in download mode all seem corrected and Then UPGRADE back to US99830b pie and everything seems to be running smoothly...Yaaay;):D
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] freduser:
Big thanks John! Smooth as pie transition from Oreo to Pie, dirty flash from 20K. Will update if there are any issues, but the only thing I did was to make a nandriod backup, and stack flash 30C then Magisk 19.4. Upon completion of these steps I cleared cache and dalvaik then rebooted.

Update: Still smooth as can be. The only unusual issue was that I had to go in and manually set my notification tones so that I would receive audio notifications. Other than that all is working immediately after flash and notifications working as expected now.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] christoophat:
Please, for those who've updated theirs to Pie & have TMo, please report if your wifi calling is working. Without it, I cannot update, as wifi calling is needed in my area.

Thanks to John & Chaz for your great efforts & help.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
Thanks for posting.

See, works for most people. The ones it doesn't work for are the ones we get questions from.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mcarden2006:

Using Mint Mobile, they use TMo's LTE networks. WiFi calling still not working, it was working for me on US99820h.

[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] kgirlx:
30c?....30b is here... Where is 30c?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
30b is September build date.

You can't go by letters you have to see what it in the firmware.

What does anyone's 30c have that's any different?

I don't necessarily want 30c, I want Open Market US998 KDZ. ;)
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Ballroomblitz:
This may sound like a no brainer to some, but I would rather ask and avoid a problem because I thought I was smarter than I am ?.

Can I go back to 20h from this rom and restore my last twrp back up? Do I need to do the stack and flash method and then restore my back up once on 20H?

Open market US998.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] kgirlx:
curious cause a few posts above the guy is mentioning he flashed 30C
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
VS996 is 30c. US998 is 30b. Both have September build date.

He probably flashed to US998 30b to get Pie, the flashed VS996 30c TWRP flashable zip. I'd have to see his post.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] christoophat:
Was kind of thinking the same. Really want to try it out, but if wifi calling doesn't work w/ my phone, I'd need to go back
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Ballroomblitz:
If I knew then what I know now, I wouldn't.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Zctgamer:
So i flashed the us998 on my Frankenstein h931(i think. I kinda forgot which one it is lol) and everything works fine EXCEPT the camera which is kinda the only reason i even considered going back to stock(been on Lineage for like a month now). Anyone have any fixes for this?
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ChazzMatt:
Are you completely stock or do you have TWRP and running Magisk or Xposed mods?

1) Disable any mods. Many can conflict with Pie or are OS specific. One guy disabled two mods and his camera worked again.

2) it that doesn't work, reflash via Refurbish mode.
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Zctgamer:
I flashed via TWRP, and have no xposed or magisk mods installed. I tried finding a current LG Stock apk but couldnt find one for pie sadly(idk if thatd even work tbh)
[LG V30 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] bhq76:
Nice info...i will try to day

EDIT : Now I am On Pie US99830b.

Is it possible to completely remove the VR Services from my 2 XL on Android 10

[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] roman0o:
I believe you need root access to remove some essential google packages, even with adb. But I found you can uninstall some packages if you get the playstore package name. I can't post links yet but package name on Google Play is "Google VR Services"

or try

adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.DELETE -d package:<your app package>

(find the VR package name and run that command)

flashing roms of a5 ul, dwg or other versions don't work

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] PattayaGlock:
Howdy!

I have finally gotten the multi user problem solved and made my 1st nandroid backup. I have never done a restore so I have a couple of questions:

1) If I flash lineage then do a restore in TWRP can I select just the 'data' partition to restore from my OOS bcakup?

2) Can I do a restore a back up I made in OOS after I flash Lineage or does that muck things up?

3) If I can do a restore of only the 'data' files will that restore all my apps, and will it restore the app data?

I have done several searches of the forums and have not been able to totally figure out how I can save my set up in OOS and get all my apps and data to Lineage without painstakingly loading each app again and setting each app back up.

4) If I copy my entire data folder to my hard drive, flash Lineage, then copy it back to the phone will that accomplish what I am trying to do, or is that what the nd backup will do, or am I barking up the wrong tree totally.

Last time I accidentally wiped my phone and had to rebuild everything from scratch......this time I would like to avoid that fun!!

Thank you in advance,

[Nokia 3.2 Questions & Answers] No_sense_at_all:
Has anyone rooted 3.2? Every single method what I find in google won't work. Application errors, fails etc. So is there really working method or should I change the phone?
[Nokia 3.2 Questions & Answers] What a coincidence.:
I did it about a weel ago. It took me a while to get it right, though.

I had my phone completetly up to date, installed Magisk Manager, used it to patch a stock boot.img found in the forums, and flashed it with Fastboot. It resulted in some weird glitches with the screen, I could not turn Wi-Fi on, auto screen rotation stopped working, and the phone took close to five minutes to boot up, Very unsatisfying.

In the end, I decided to download the latest maintenance release from July 2019. Sideloading with ADB did not work for some reason - it always stopped at around 47% - so I ended using Payload Dumper to unpack the update package and flash it file by file with Fastboot. I would have needed to do that to get the boot.img file anyway, so what the heck.

Finally I used Magisk to patch that boot.img file, flashed it, and voilà! Tedious, but totally worth it. :P

I installed smart switch which prompted me, I thought. "No that's a mistake I know it ink out works on the note 10 as I tried this previously"

I installed it and it was working, well some of it. See below.

*Refresh rate seemed to be lacking

*Resolution didn't seem as clear as the 1080 resolution on my laptop

*Sky Q didn't let me view "protected content, so audio was there but just a black screen.

*starling bank, same again. Black screen

*Email. Works fine

*Linux in dex. Works just fine!

I think this is all since I updated the phone over smart switch to SIG version. It's odd because when I checked in the phone menu there was no update, but it was on smart switch.

Now the question is, why would you need this? You are on a pc, but want another cut down pc? Simple I would add it to my work machine! That way you can jump into your email on a laptop. Maybe even play films from Mx player on the train by using your dex!

I've been wondering how to enable this. There is an option in the Google beta app, Android authority has said, but it is not there for me. Nor the Gmail dark, or the play store dark. But both display option is set to dark theme, and force dark mode on in developer settings. It is a mystery what Google is up to with this....

Edit: so I just powered off my phone, and restarted it. Still no dark play store, then I went back into apps and uninstalled all updates to the play store, and had to toggle the force override dark mode in Dev options because it switches off between boots, and I now have dark play store. But none of the other apps are dark, SMH.
