First, you won't be able to modify the ota as it's signed by google and you'd need the signing key on any modified file.

If it's an issue with the storage being almost full you might try using adb to pull and then delete any large files you have.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] Krazy_Calvin:
I got this phone hoping that the quality of my concert recordings would look better than the aging nexus 5x I had. I did a couple recordings last night. Ill update it later as soon as the other two videos update. Couple things happened. During the first show it was brighter in the room and it looked better. I accidentally swiped on the phone and it ended the recording. That was frustrating when it happened and the first bands recording got cut in half. I tried using the shake free mode or whatever it was called on the first band to try to save battery. The second band got on stage and I switched it to the 4k mode. I paid no attention to the warning that popped up when i started recording. The video ended after five minutes and I wondered what the heck happened. I started recording again and noticed the warning that 4k only records 5 minutes at a time. After that I switched over to the hd stable mode. The show was quite a bit darker and the video quality was not the best. Audio was fine on all the recordings though.

So I went home and uploaded the videos... first thing I noticed was the 4k video was sideways... I held the phone the way I was supposed to... I have no idea why it recorded sideways. Thats a little annoying because i dont have the tools to fix it.

[Samsung Galaxy A30 Questions & Answers] TheFinalStarman:
I made the mistake of flashing the wrong version of TWRP using Heimdall, causing the device to get caught in a boot loop. Initially, I couldn't enter recovery or download mode to re-flash the firmware, but after disconnecting the battery to shutdown I was able to get back into download mode and flash a stock ROM (downloaded from SamFirm).

After flashing the ROM (now using Odin) and auto rebooting, I get the installing software update screen with a loading symbol (for a few seconds), followed by a boot loop (Samsung screen -> Knox warning -> reboot -> repeat).

- Power cycling the device boots back into recovery mode.

- "Reboot device" option from recovery mode enters the boot loop.

- "Reboot to bootloader" option reboots into download mode (I'm not sure why)

- Wiping the cache / factory reset between reboots seems to have no result

The phone is an unlocked SM-A305G/DS from Amazon, so I'm not confident I have the carrier version correct. The only record of the CSC version I had before was the .pit file I extracted through Heimdall before flashing the wrong firmware. It contained the string "TPA", so that's my current best guess. I have tried firmwares for TPA, CHE, and CHO but with the same results.

Any ideas what might be wrong? I imagine the device isn't hard bricked, so I don't know what else could have went wrong. Kind of a newbie when it comes to android firmware, but I have some technical background, so let me know if there's some more things I can try or if more information might be needed to debug this issue.

Some more specific questions:

1. Does the carrier code matching the device matter? If so, is there a way to find the original CSC from IMEI on an unlocked/no warranty phone? The few websites I tried don't appear to be able to get that info.

2. Is there any way to access the logs from the last normal boot attempt? (Recovery mode only appears to keep logs for itself, not normal boot)

3. Could tripping Knox somehow be the problem? I didn't think it had any repercussions except voiding the warranty (which the device didn't come with)....

4. Can Samsung support somehow help me find my CSC/correct firmware even if I don't have a warranty?
[Samsung Galaxy A30 Questions & Answers] TheFinalStarman:
Solved

Posting solution here just in case someone makes the same mistake,

I realized that I neglected to post the information displayed in download mode, most importantly:

`KG State: Prenormal`

Googling that, I found that this might be caused because of a mismatch between my SIM card region and the installed firmware region. So I removed my SIM card, re-flashed the latest stock firmware again, and it booted :laugh:

Also, download mode displayed the correct CSC code regardless of installed firmware (I installed CHE firmware and it still displayed TPA), though I'm not sure if that's consistent across devices.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] zxzxzxzxzxzxzxzxzx:
I picked up a V30S and now I have rooted it successfully. However, during the conversion from US998h to VS996k in TWRP, I lost the "S" part in the boot, and now it just says "LG V30 thinq" whereas it used to say "LG V30 thinq", like the attached picture.

I would like to get that back. I liked seeing the "S" part when it boots up, it feels more premium.

The same thing happened with my V30+, it lost the "+" once changing to VS996.

How can I get this original factory boot screen back?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
You can't get that back on Verizon firmware. Verizon didn't sell the V30+ nor V30S, only the V30.

You can get original factory boot screen back by flashing back to US998 firmware. ;)

Which is what you'll do when you sell it eventually, but until then it doesn't really matter.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] zxzxzxzxzxzxzxzxzx:
I'm looking for a way to hack it into the boot. Like replace the image of v30 with the V30S image at boot
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
If you could do that, people could claim to have V30+ who don't...

Good luck with that. Don't brick your phone.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] zxzxzxzxzxzxzxzxzx:
I already know you can edit the other boot, so by the way I already know it is possible to put a boot screen of anything, after the initial boot screen, so your argument is pointless.

As far as tricking someone, anyone can look up the IMEI to find the true model of the phone. Also, you can look at the storage. If you put a "plus" on a 64gb non-plus that would be STUPID since both phones cost nearly the same.

Looking for someone to actually help. I do have the actual phone and I could show my IMEI to prove it. I bought this second phone for the 6GB of ram (I now have a V30 Plus AND a V30S). I looked for months to find one. Part of why I'd like to see the S in the boot screen since I put a lot of effort into finding this phone. I have no intentions of ever selling it. It's the perfect phone for me and I could see keeping it for many years.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Yes, the V30/30+/v30S are fantastic phones. Congratulations on finding a V30S. A year ago when I was looking they were still too expensive and already have several V30/V30+.

I wasn't talking about YOU tricking someone, I was just talking about in general. Someone recently posted they want to do that, so people would think they v30+ when they only had V30. Don't know why, they weren't talking about cheating someone, they were talking about just bragging about it.

Lots of people have asked what you have, nobody's been able to do it.

Same thing with getting rid of the bootloader unlocked warning. The only way you can that is to do is what you did -- flash Verizon firmware. ;) OR flash partial Verizon firmware -- which is dangerous for other variants because every time you update your firmware, if you don't match compatible firmware you brick your phone.

Good luck in your quest.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] zxzxzxzxzxzxzxzxzx:
Yes, it (V30S) was hard to find. You can buy it from the LG website for a remarkable $900 (!!!) but of course that's not the real price. Heck they are selling a new V30 (regular! 64gb) on the LG website for over $900! LOL! I love my V30S, but it is not a significant improvement. It's nice to have a little more RAM but it's not any different at all besides that. Speed is pretty much the same. Only difference is marginally better multitasking. Worth it for me, but I wish I had 24GB of RAM lol. Heck I want 1 million gb of ram with a trillion petabytes of storage and a 99999 core neural network quantum cpu but hey that's a nice dream.

Actually, I already removed the bootloader unlocked warning. It disappears when you flash the Verizon variant, not sure if that's what you meant, but I have no warning anymore. Also, I had already removed the verizon boot as well, this is easy with ROM Toolbox Lite (choose "hide" not remove).

To clarify for readers, flashing to VS996 (verizon) from an LS998 or a US998 or even US998R (V30S, my current phone), is 100% safe. I've now done it on 3 phones. 2 of them former LS998 converted to US998 through the WTF method and then VS996. And 1 of them my US998R.

(p.s. you may get easily fixable bootloop if converting LS998 on PIE (Android 9) downgrading to US998 Oreo to prepare for bootloader unlock. You can easily get out of bootloop by holding voldown + power for 7 seconds until reboots, then at reboot logo keep holding voldown and then release power for a half a second and hold power again, then do the factory reset and it will get out of bootloop).
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Yes, that was what I meant. Verizon firmware doesn't have bootloader unlock warning because Verizon never imagined their phones could be bootloader unlocked. ;). Of all the 20 variants, only stock VS996 doesn't have bootloader unlock warning (that I know of).

So some people who don't want Verizon firmware but wanted to get rid of bootloader unlock warning started flashing just that specific VS9996partition governing that in Dev Patched LGUP -- and someone bricked their phone.

Because they kept using the same Verizon firmware but didn't realize as their variant is updated they had to also use updated VS996 firmware to replace that partition. (Sort of the same reason you can't be on early Oreo to flash current LOS-16 ROMs.)

Anyway, Devs said to stop doing that, it's not worth the risk.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] zxzxzxzxzxzxzxzxzx:
I agree it's not wise to flash only part of a firmware. Better to flash the whole thing. You can get Verizon firmware to work on most other providers anyway as a bring your own device.

Just keep in mind Straight Talk does not like Sprint phones (you can find out your original model number using LG Mobile Support Tool, which, when plugged in, will tell you your ORIGINAL hardware model number, not your software model.) My friend has a V30 and Straight Talk was a disaster. I would say don't bother with straight talk.

Just use prepaid Verizon instead if you're trying to save money. Activate a legit Verizon phone first and then transfer the sim card into your phone. I was able to get both a V30+ and V30S to easily and seamlessly work on Verizon on VS996 firmware on BOTH prepaid and postpaid plans.

But as for flashing the full VS996 firmware, it will be perfectly fine on compatible models (e.g. LS998, US998, US998R, possibly others but I have not tested).
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Sure. I'm the one who wrote the Frankenstein instructions which came BEFORE WTF bootloader unlock exploit.

All the North American variants (EXCEPT for T-Mobile H932) can be completely cross flashed and converted to another: US998, AS998, LS998, VS996, H931, H933, and H932PR (Puerto Rico).

However, of all those, only US998 has fastboot flash commands.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] zxzxzxzxzxzxzxzxzx:
Thank you very much for your contributions! You are making the world a better place.

By the way I'll probably keep this phone until a fully rootable phone on verizon 160g or less weight with a better resolution screen 6.4" or bigger yet not any taller, with better cpu more ram and oled with microsd card slot and a few other specs comes out, and WITHOUT a notch or cutout.

So, I expect it will be years before such a phone comes out. Until then, this phone is the perfect phone for me.

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] kamau:
Hi everyone, I'm new here, couple of weeks ago if you'd asked me what a prophet was, I'd I've talked about religion. I was given a hand-me-down imate jamin that i"m trying to get working properly.

The prophet in question was previously working properly without any issues, the previous owner had just gotten a new battery for it when the issues started. The phone slowed down to a crawl, nothing could get done with it, takes like 1 min to open a text msg, around 10sec to answer a phone call. Having gotten it and thinking its a firmware problem, I did a hard reset, nothing, then I upgraded the firmware to the latest JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_ship.zip again, nothing!

Funnily enough, this behaviour is erratic, do a soft reset, load sktools and the cpu usage app reports that all is fine, give it some time then ka-boom! the cpu usage gets maxed out by device.exe seemingly for no reason.

Anyone here ever seen behaviour like this? If you have or just have a suggestion on what I can try, please post. I'm not sure what to do now since I'm on the latest firmware and I don't know where I can get a rom for wm6 for the phrophet. I"m hoping upgrading to wm6 will fix this issue.

Thanks in advance.

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Dixiesmu:

You could try a cooked rom, but make sure you perform a hard SPL first as this will save your prophet from bricking.

The other thing is have you tried a different battery as a bad battery can seriously affect the phones performance espcially if it is a cheap copy.

If your'e worried about flashing have a deep read of the following link

Sorry mate, just seen your reply.

The phone eventually died, won't charge, nothing doing, looks like its bricked. I moved to a Kaiser, which then started having 3g problems, though I got a temporary fix by keeping it on 2g.

Now I have a mytouch which needs unlocking. I think me and htc should part ways, I'm yet to have a simple good time with any of their products.

As regards the prophet... is there a way I can resuscitate it? It wont' charge, no light shows either on usb or charging from a normal charger.

Thanks

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Carty:
It's not like that. HTC phones work good as long as you keep them good. I'm not saying you didn't keep it good but maybe some softwares ruined your Pocket PC. ANytime this happens, a hard reset and revert from backup should solve most of your problems.

Looking at your Prophet, smells like the battery is dead? Try changing and see if that helps.

Regards,

Carty..
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] kamau:
This looks like a day that is going to be special. This phone has been in my drawer over a year now, I'd given up on it long ago. Well I stripped one of my old chargers down to the wire, charged the battery manually for a few mins and presto the phone has come on.

It's still slow as hell, so I see device.exe is still hogging cpu.

Time to review the prophet roms, been a while since I checked on it.

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] 81!:
NO MATTER WHICH WAY I TRIED THIS DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE...I THINK SAMSUNG PATCHED SOMETHING SO IT DON'T

********READ ALL THE WAY THROUGH***********

**************BEFORE ATTEMPING****************

Tested on SM-G975F

But should work with any I think...

Feel free to try with other models... "but make a back up first!!!"

Messing around with ways to try to create root with a stock rom and TWRP for recovery, I came across the problem that you can't Flash directly with the TWRP app anymore.

But what came of this is a thought about it and you can switch out the recovery.img for a patched.img That you can get with MAGISK Using the "install" option Then in the sub menu after you hit that button will be "patch a file"

With that option you need to patch the AP.tar file from the firmware file and also the TWRP.img file after that's done you don't need to reboot just look for the patched.img and patched.tar files in your download folder When you find them be sure to rename the patched.img file to recovery.img

Once all of this then you need to extract patched.tar so you can see all the files Then you can take the newly renamed recovery.img file and replace the stock recovery.img file with it

Once that's done package it back up be patched.tar again using 7zip then you can flash that in the AP slot of ODIN after you boot to download mode but all of this works best if you flash the whole stock firmware first go to recovery and do a factory reset then flash the patched AP file in the AP slot

Now when you boot up remember to boot holding power+Bixby+vol up till a little after the 10plus screen shows for a second time then release also for the first time you want to set up your phone by skipping everything (adding Google account, wifi, etc...)just skip it all then once it's done setting up power off and go to recovery and do a factory reset

Now boot again holding power+Bixby+volume up till a little after the 10plus screen shows for a second time then release the Samsung screen may take a while just let it but if it take more then 5 to 10 mins then emergency restart with power+vol down and it should take long now just make sure you always boot you phone with power+Bixby+vol up but if you forget and lose root the just reboot holding power+Bixby+vol up till a little after the 10plus screen shows for a second time then release and it should boot rooted now

You can setup you phone and add all of your accounts and add apps and wait for play to update the rest then power off reboot to recovery which by the should be TWRP now and make a full backup which you weren't able to do with the way I had in my other guide.

So if anything goes wrong now you will always have a TWRP Backup of you setup, apps and data have fun
