[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Flying Kiwi:
Have a look at this thread *Hopeless* GPS after 6.1 update? My concern is that radio seems to be used with many WM 6.1 ROMs even though the newer AT&T WM 6.1 Radio is reported by at least 1 person here to have fixed that problem. In my case the different GPS performance with Tomtom Navigator 6.032 was like night and day - thread title sums it up well. I wish I hadn't upgraded because HTC won't give me the ROM to go back, they'll only do this for me if I send it back to them (with the associated time out of use).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] rhc-net:
I did the update last night and it seems to be running beautifully. Either because of the update or because of the hard reset involved it seems to be running a little quicker.

I do like the option in the bluetooth stack the automatic turn off of discovery and its related blinking reminder on the bottom of the today screen.

The only downside i have seen so far is the comm manager, which looks dated as it appears to be like the original one from the XDA Mini s. Tho its purely cosmetic and it works fine.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dg252:
I don't seem to have a problem. Using QuickGPS and then VisualGPSce, I can get a fix very quicky.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Flying Kiwi:
How does it compare with WM 6.0 for you? How quick is 'very quickly' when out in the open and is this a 'cold' fix or one after restarting the app once it's already got a fix - see that thread for further details? Have you tried it with Tomtom Navigator (not sure if the Stellar comes with this in the box like the UK generic HTC version) and if so do the signal bars fluctuate much when you're stationary? Perhaps others who've used the O2 WM 6.1 version can comment as well. I've learnt my lesson with being an 'early adopter' and I'll let other's do the Beta testing with ROM upgrades in future I think.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dg252:
I just tried it in my office holding the phone near the window (I couldn't be bothered to go downstairs and outside ;-)) Starting the VisualGPSce application from cold, I got a fix within a few seconds.

I don't have Tomtom navigator so cannot comment on that.

I don't think wm 6.1 has made any difference to the performance.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] cotc2001:
I did a restore from sprite backup but although everything went back on it ran Slllllooooooowww and also I couldn't get a connection to pick up emails so ended up doing a hard reset and just re-installing the apps . Not such a bad thing as like my desktop it's good to have a spring clean now and then.

First fix for GPS took about 30 seconds but since then I get a fix within 10.

Can't really see any improvement in performance and the extra features that 6.1 provide aren't really that a big advance (apart from the threaded sms) , so for those who aren't bothered about having the "latest" on their kaiser i'd say just stick to 6.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] heavilyarmedgorilla:
My personal experience suggests a major performance increase, in terms of drawing the windows, responsiveness, speed of waking from standby.

Definitely worth upgrading. The threaded text messages are very handy too.

6.1 problem - Activesynch error code 860000107

ok, here goes - installed the update which went without a hitch. Reinstalled all my programmes and synchronised with my home pc which went much quicker than with WM6 - all fine so far.

Next day, synchronised in work and all was ok until I returned home to resynchronise with my home pc again and I got an error code 860000107. Created a new partership and the error went away just to return when synchronising in work again. This is being experienced by others as well as I have found on this site. I emailed support on the O2 XDA home site and they said;

"There is currently an unresolved technical issue with the upgrade process to Windows Mobile 6.1.

Please contact technical support through O2 customer services for up-to-date advise on how to resolve this issue as well as the option of Windows Mobile 6."

So I just rang o2 technical support and apparently you are not supposed to be able to synchronise with 2 PCs at the same time I can't believe that they are serious about this - what a load s***t!

The obvious answer is to load on a cooked ROM and ignore these people who haven't got a clue - anyone who rings o2 for support - good luck!

I give up!!!!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] AeronK:
I don't suppose some kind soul happens to have the original o2 WM 6 ROM?

I am trying to get o2 to release it for a downgrade but no luck so far.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Jezwick:
I have my new rom'd Stellar syncing at work and at home with no worries at all..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] AeronK:
Well I wish mine was working. Tried o2 again and they didn't want to know, so I have downloaded again and reflashed the ROM, will find out on Monday if I still have the problem but note that this is an issue for a lot of people on this forum and it seems to be linked to WM 6.1.

Fingers crossed that I can get mine working too!

[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Life Engineer:
Hey guys. So I've been a samsung user for years now and I stopped checking XDA or rooting for a long time now. So please bear with me.

I am interested in getting this phone from AliExpress (the only way for me in the middle east).

It's obviously the chinese tencent version. The seller mentions that it is flashed with a multilanguage ROM but with no OTA updates.

He says that we can ask for pre chinese phone in a completely sealed box (running unmodified software, chinese original rom).

I personally use my phone in English only and don't care about the multilanguage thing. In fact, I've previously perfectly used a Xiaomi device running the chinese rom.

So here goes my questions:

1- Any downsides of getting the chinese version and keeping it that way to keep getting OTAs?

2- Will I be able to flash google services and apps?

3- Is it rootable and unrootable on chinese rom?

If so, will we still be able to receive OTAs when rooted?

4- Is there's any way to have call recording without root? (I mean built-in support like xiaomi phones for example)?

5- Is the RAM management really as bad as I've heard? (check this review at 6:10). I mean I want to have full use of the full use of those 8GB ram.

6- Is there any way to flash a global rom and keep getting OTAs?

Thank guys.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] kgs1992:
Since updating to Android 10 (OxygenOS 10.0.GM21AA) through Oxygen Updater, I've been having heavy battery drain from Google Play Services.

It's top on the battery usage and I've seen anywhere from 10-25%

Things I've tried:

- Opt-in for Google Play Services beta (Curr. Ver: v19.4.19)

- Checked permissions on all apps and disabled any that don't seem right

- Cleared data for Google Play Services

Things I want to avoid:

- Wipe /data or factory reset

- Downgrade

Does anyone have any info or possible fixes for this problem?

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Daenjel:
If you're root, try using the magisk module named "Universal GMS Doze" it should solve the drain problem.

If you're NOT rooted, try searching for the Google Services Beta Program, join it and then upgrade your app, it MAY solve the problem.

Good luck
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] kgs1992:
I'll try this. But it seems like play services is never in the background, all of its battery use seems to be while the device is in use
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] valeriee:
Doesn't that magisk module break notifications though? Like notifications are delayed?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] kgs1992:
I've attempted a bunch of fixes, one of which has fixed this issue, at least so far.

1. Opted in to beta and updated to latest beta Play Services.

2. Installed GMS Doze magisk module

3. Moved apps (particularly my launcher, Hyperion) from battery optimisation Intelligent Control to Optimise.

Not sure which of these fixed it, but my money's on the battery optimisation. YMMV.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Daenjel:
I've never encountered anything like that, and I've been using this module since 2018 over various devices/roms.

I have a LgV30 with 7.1.2, t mobile.

wanna upgrade to 9.0.

Nothing I do makes my mac or my pc recognize my phone. I've used Lg bridge & Lg pc suite.

Sometimes android file transfer works, but that's not for upgrading OS.

Somebody mentioned upgrading OS from google drive?

How would I do that?

Any suggesions appreciated.

I'm about to give up & buy the LgV40,

cuz all I really want is color management

so my edited pix look the same across devices.

Thanks.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
You would not be using LG Bridge or LG PC Suite. You need to read post #2. Right there at the beginning of the thread! Post #2.

Go to the KDZ thread link and install using Dev Patched LGUP.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheDannemand:
Just to make sure: Your phone is model H932 (T-Mobile version of V30). Right?

This thread is for H932, and you do say you're "with" T-Mobile, so I assume that's what you have. I only ask because H932 normally works with LG Bridge. And if you use the KDZ thread mentioned in post #2 with ANY other V30 model, you will brick your phone.

So just making sure :)
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Good point!

[MENTION=11068975]ericLindellNYC[/MENTION], don't care if you have an LG "V30". There's a few V30 that will work on T-mobile. But do you have a T-mobile H932? If you don't, then tell us what you do have, and we can tell you how to update THAT to Pie.

If you do have a T-mobile H932, then my previous answer will tell you all you need, when you go to the KDZ thread for the T-mobile H932.

It's now available OTA from T-Mobile
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
We know.

But OTA is partial image update -- dependent on your carrier and if your phone acts right.

KDZ is full image, which will always be superior. ;) You can control exactly when and how you flash -- Upgrade (like a manual OTA, keeping data if full stock) , Refurbish, Partition DL.

Most of us on XDA have unlocked bootloaders and TWRP custom recovery. So, we want total control over how to flash updates. But even if I was full stock (which my spare V30+ is), I still flash full image KDZ via Dev Patched LGUP.

If something goes wrong, I can fix it right then.

I haven't installed it myself, but I trust it. All the other LG Pies worldwide have been ARB0.

I'm stock too, waiting for LG to hopefully approve a warranty claim on my touchscreen. And I was concerned that an ARB1 update might arrive before, since they always send phones back with the latest update after repair or replacement.

There never will be Treble for "Joan" V30/30+/V30S. Even when some V30 next year get LG stock Android 10. So not sure why you are even mentioning Treble.

It's been explained over and over, yet for some reason people keep expecting Treble? Don't know why. Either you're new or not been paying attention. ;). Was thoroughly discussed last year when Oreo update came...

V30 series launched bwith Nougat, in 2017. There's no requirement for Treble except for Android devices that LAUNCHED with Oreo.

Trying to send any updates that not only update OS but also create some new Treble partition across ALL the many variants and carriers worldwide would be a disaster waiting to happen. And would take even LONGER to roll out Pie.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ikonomov:
Yep, so it seems. It would be nice if LG can make it possible as an option using say LG Bridge with instructions that would backup the entire partition so that nothing would be lost after the re-partitioning.

Has anybody been successful creating a vendor partition for H932 using the SGCMarkus guide: How to repartition for vendor and how to use GSIs?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Sorry, there's no easy solution. You had to find the guy online who can spoof a m another T-Mobile model number and I think you have to downgrade to Nouga5 for it to work. He went by TMobile killer or something like that and it cost money.

Instructions were posted but removed by mods because obstensibly it was advertising for a commercial service.

Do NOT fall for scammers who claim they can give you a "code" that will carrier unlock/SIM card unlock T-Mobile H932. Simple code will NOT work.

Basically the only people who should buy T-Mobile phones are T-Mobile customers....

---------- Post added at 01:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:59 AM ----------

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheDannemand:
Others (but not all) have reported those lags on Pie.

You could try this weird fix shared by [MENTION=7380686]thefpspower[/MENTION]: Simply make a backup in LG Bridge. You don't have to restore it, just make the backup. Some app permissions/settings may have to be redone afterwards.

If that doesn't work, I suggest a Master Reset. NOT just a Factory Reset, but the button dance.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] BROKEN1981:
It's funny since both methods do the same thing. There is literally no difference.

---------- Post added at 01:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 AM ----------

Wait, so you can swap the motherboard for a different version that can be rooted and just like that you have a new version?

Sounds logical to me if I think of it as a desktop computer.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
No, we proved they are different.

I hope it wasn't you we got into argument with and the person took it badly that he was totally wrong.

I don't remember the person but I think we eventually got a mod involved.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] BROKEN1981:
Not me. Would have thought you would know that if things got that bad. We got into 1 debate over LAF and TWRP, we never had an argument.

I always thought if you were in the OS and hit factory reset, it just takes you to recovery same way button dance would.

Pretty cool to know there is an actual difference.

Any idea why LG made 2 different reset methods?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheDannemand:
I remember that discussion ChazzMatt refers to, but not who was involved. I do remember the takeaway that the two were different. Stock Recovery receives input parameters telling it what to do (say, apply an OTA update, or wipe the phone) so the button dance can tell it to do one thing and Factory Reset something else.

But I also remember that I chimed in back then to point out one very significant difference between the two, which I will repeat here: Master Reset triggers FRP, while Factory Reset does NOT. If selling a phone or sending it in for repair, DO NOT use Master Reset: If the next user cannot sign into the wiped phone with the same Google account, then kill switch will be triggered -- effectively bricking the phone.

I am surprised we don't get more cases of that here, since it is an easy mistake to make. But glad we don't :)
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] BROKEN1981:
That's odd, I thought both would trigger it if you didn't first delete the Google account off the device first. At the same time, it also makes sense since if you get past the lock screen, it's safe to assume that it's the legitimate owner trying to reset the device.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheDannemand:
Exactly!

With Master Reset you have to delete your account first -- which you won't be able to unless you are the legitimate owner, the entire purpose of FRP. With Factory Reset, you already proved you are the owner, so you don't have to delete the account.

There is also a deeper engineering reset from the Service Menu, as described in this post. I used that when I couldn't get TMO Device Unlock working again after LG repair had wiped my phone.
