hello,

Is it possible to recover deleted SMS?

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] riso123:
Well, kind of...

My s9+ died on Christmas eve (gutted), so in boxing day I took myself to the Vodafone store and got myself a nice shiny new S10+... or do i thought.

First they bought out a new phone sealed in the box. Scanned it through and told me it was already reserved for someone else. No problem, they had "plenty in stock".

This tone he bought out an unsealed Vodafone box. Very defensively, without ne asking, he declared, "don't worry, this box is because some official Samsung boxes get damaged in transit. We move the contents to this box, so it's still the full brand new product". I'm fine with this and sounds ok.

I luckily opened the box to put my sim and sd in to it. I find that the earphones are missing... odd. I then inspect there phone and find there is a huge gap down the side of the screen and the metal, with glue showing... this is clearly NOT a new phone.

I point this out to the guy and he initially said he had processed it, so I'd have to make a claim. Then I pointed out that I have a 2 week cooling off period, and also, if they want ne to leave the side without causing a fuss, they had better get me my proper new phone.

Luckily they did just that. Opened it up and it was a totally different story. Phone had the screen protector on it, all items in there. It was then clear that phones in the Vodafone boxes must be damaged returns and NOT brand new phones transferred to other boxes.

Just a heads up to anyone else who might fall for this trap. If they bring out your ne phone in anything other than a perfectly sealed Samsung box, don't accept it!

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] riso123:
You think is just that one store?

I guess it's possible. Then again, my wife took out a new contract with Vodafone late last year. She saw the phone she wanted in store and stated several times that's the one she wants, to remarks of, "good choice" etc.

She took out the contract being led to believe the phone was included. Once all the signatures where completed we sat there waiting for the phone. The agent then told us, it doesn't include the phone and they don't have any in stock, so we'd would have to purchase the phone individually else where.

Although we had the cooling off period, we had already processed the number transfer with the agent there, so it would be messy to back out.

It seems they are all a little underhand everywhere! This was a different store in a city 2 hours away from where I had my experience.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Nettwerk:
My girlfriend took SIM contract from vodafone. And before she sign contract asked how about network coverage. Agent said it is perfect 4G speed is aprox 40Mb/s. So next day she put sim in phone to try. Ok sim card is activated. But coverage is ****, network speed is crap. Fastest what she got 0.78Mb/s download and upload 0.12Mb/s. To use Whatsapp for calls most been impossible. Ok she lived one week with that sim. Contacted vodafone and CS said we have network issue in your area etc. Nothing changed. After all she went to vodafone store to cancel and that was mess. In store guy spend more than one hour with CS / about 8 times transfered to different department, third CS service cancelled contract and wasn't able to give PAC code to keep number and finally story doesn't ends here. Vodafone for less the 7 days charge her £15. Ofcorse after two month of fighting vodafone refunded £11 from £15. Now she is with EE and no prob at all.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] riso123:
To be fair, thay just sounds like bad luck with an outage in the area, but I do agree, most suppliers ate difficult to cancel with.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Youdoofus:
Sales involving contracts are a nightmare for retailers to handle returns on, mainly because of obstacles in the way because the seller doesnt have much interest in taking customers out of the contract. The vendor blames the service provider and vice versa. In situations like these, its 99.99999999% likely that the retailer had a rash of returns or maybe even bought a damaged freight shipment on purpose to maximize profits and are having to cover their butts when issues are brought up. Sketchy retail practices to say the absolute least, but still not likely Vodafones doing

U need to have a magisk module for mount temporally files like mixer_paths or vo_config

The Magisk module could be one solution but I have found a more elegant way. I had to disable dm-verity by HEX edit boot_a partition. /OEM directory edit persists afterward.

Do you guys see the VoWiFi indicator when it is enabled?

On my V35 and V40, VoWiFi has been confirmed to be working but there is no icon indicator like when VoLTE is on. I even check the box in the hidden menu. It only affects VoLTE.

Did LG just omit VoWiFi indicator when they built the firmware?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Guides, News, & Discussion] manuhuelva:
Stop stop, I dont have the knowledge to understand u did with hex editor hahaha, but congrats for ur work, never had ear this way for the mixer tweaks.

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] lyor:
I have custom ROM, and I'd like to use the latest OOS cam apk, but in apkmirror there is only ports from OP7/P which are always crashing when I opening them.

Where can I download it?
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Mr.FREE_Bird:
Let me Google that for you... https://lmgtfy.com/?q=oneplus+6+oos+camera+for+custom+rom

Apparently it's somehow super hard for some people to do a quick Google Search... It's that easy.

Here's some links to some threads that might be helpful:

https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-6/themes/magisk-oos-camera-3rd-party-roms-t3873821

https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-6/themes/magisk-oneplus6-oos-camera-t3888204

If those ports don't work you might be out of luck, not every Custom ROM has support for the OOS Camera.

Not that it really matters, the OOS Camera sucks anyway. You'll be able to get way better results with a Google Camera port.

Also in many Custom ROM threads there have been reports of certain features of the OOS Camera to be not working, like Slow Motion and Portrait Mode.

So I wouldn't be expecting a fully working OOS Camera on a Custom ROM.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] lyor:
Don't assume I didn't google that before if you don't even bother to ask :rolleyes:

If you'd pay close attention, you would see that I even commented on the thread in your 3rd link, but it's a dead old port, and I'd like to use a newer one (like the one in OmniROM for example, which is somehow managed to do so) because all of the options that you gave are extremely old, and most (if not all) the issue you mentioned are already fixed in the newer versions which you didn't even bother to look into account.

And I don't know why do you think the OOS cam so bad, especially if you're recommending a buggy cam like GCAM, which is behaving like an early alfa stage and crashing randomly.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Mr.FREE_Bird:
Well if you did search well than you would've already known that there isn't any great working port available but the ones included with certain ROM's. Something I already knew but you just assumed I didn't, now you are doing the exact same thing you were pointing out to me. So the advise you gave me would be fitting for you too. "Don't assume I didn't knew that before if you don't even bother to ask".

And I'm not going to read through all those threads just to see if you have already commented in them, why would I?

Beside that, yes the OOS Camera absolutely sucks. The unreliable post processing kills all the details, which results in very ugly digital looking, sometimes oversharpenend or soft picture's. A small crop isn't even possible due to that.

The Nightscape mode sucks too, makes every picture look like an oil painting. And it's funny you call GCam buggy, shows you didn't do much research on it. Currently I'm using Miniflex which works just fine and at least makes it possible to take usable pictures. The older xtreme GCam mod works fine too.

Both capturing details and night shots with GCam is superior compared to the OOS Camera. The only two things that work better with the OOS Camera are taking videos and Slowmo's, for which it actually is pretty good. But I don't need those features, maybe you do.

Look, you started a thread with your question without providing any basic info like which ROM you are running etc. Getting a bit tired of seeing new threads requesting stuff with hardly providing any info that might be useful to know. I might have sounded very rude so sorry for that, maybe I should've took a 10sec count before I wrote my response.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] lyor:
Maybe I was running out of options, maybe it was just wishful thinking, but I thought at first that someone here knows something that I do not about it.

And regarding the OOS functionality, I don't know, but I was fully satisfied with anything I used from 3.8.72 and above.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Mr.FREE_Bird:
Well since there are some ROM's which do provide a pretty well functional OOS Camera there should be a way. But the best you could do is probably to run a ROM that provides the OOS Camera by default...

Regarding to camera quality it's probably because I'm a photographer, I'm probably looking at pictures differently than you do.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] lyor:
I prefer to stay with the rom that I have right now (havoc).

It combines the best from all the worlds into it.

The downside of it, of course, the lack of OOS (imo).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nmilosev:
I had one of those annoying dead pixels thingy on my screen. It was stuck in white and when I was watching movies it really annoyed me. And I found a way to fix this.

I was curious what does Self-Diagnostic mode does so I entered it. Believe it or not while testing the screen this tool displayed red green blue screens (this is the way of fixing this in Desktop PC) and my stuck pixel is now free.

To enter self-diagnostic mode press reset while holding Power and Record Buttons.

Bye.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
No LG Android 10 for any V30, so stop asking

https://www.xda-developers.com/lg-ux-9-0-android-10-update-schedule/

I said this before, explained WHY multiple times -- and now it's official.

No V30, including V30S, is getting LG Android 10 update. V30 launched with Nougat and has all the OS updates (Oreo and Pie) it's going to get.

V30S doesn't have Treble so that proves it was never a new phone LAUNCHED on Oreo. V30S was just a V30+ with more RAM, updated to Oreo at the factory before release., prior to all the other V30 then getting Oreo a couple of months later. V30S was basically a V30+ with more RAM, released as a marketing gimmick to try to compete with the 2018 Snapdragon 845 Samsung Galaxy S9/S9+. Was still a Snapdragon 835 V30 "Joan" phone, which runs same V30 firmware. (Samsung had exclusive rights to Snapdragon 845 for a few months.

IF it was a new phone LAUNCHED on Oreo, V30S would have required Treble. If it was new phone LAUNCHED on Oreo, then it would be eligible for two OS updates -- Pie and Android 10. But since V30S didn't have Treble, it was NOT a new phone.

Later LG released actual Snapdragon 845 phones: G7, V35, V40. Those all had Oreo and had Treble -- proving they were indeed new phones.)

V30/V30+/V30S still should get some more security updates and fixes. But no Android 10.

__________

P.S. Stop calling Android 10 "Q". Its no longer beta.

"L", "M", "N", "O", "P", "Q" were the beta letters before release and Google officially named them. I could go all the way back to beta "C" which became "Cupcake" -- but you get the point.

L became Lollipop (Android 5, 2014)

M became Marshmallow (Android 6, 2015)

N became Nougat (Android 7, 2016)

O became Oreo (Android 8, 2017)

P became Pie (Android 9, 2018)

Q simply became Android 10, 2019

Deal with it. Google decided not to use sweet snack/dessert name anymore, so they only went with the version number instead. There was always a version number behind the dessert name.

No one calls "Oreo" and "Pie" as "O" or "P", since they are not beta anymore. No one asks "Do we have a new 'P' KDZ yet?" nor "Which is better 'O' or 'P''? :rolleyes: Everyone calls them "OREO" and "PIE". Well, "Q" isn't beta anymore either... It's "Android 10".

Here's the Oreo official statue at Google Headquarters:

Here's the counterpart Android 10 statue:
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Septfox:
Ho noes~

Frankly, I'm not sure I'd trust LG to put out a stable version of it anyway. Doesn't Pie OTA still have the silly lag issue fixed with LG's backup thing?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Orof:
Shame. really wanted that desktop mode.

still - seems rather strange... what about the SD845 V35? it should get android 10 no? yet it is not listed.

also please note that the road-map is just for 2020, so maybe the V30S + V35 are planned for 2021?

wonder if we will be able to port some features to our v30's, as i really like this phone :)
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Yeah, Pie on some variants is still wonky. Like US998, and Sprint LS998 still doesn't have it. Also AME H939DS doesn't have it yet.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Uhmm, no. Android 10 was released in 2019. No OEM is going to still be pushing updates for it in 2021.

It's possible V35 still may get it as this was ITALY LG list, and V35 was not released in Europe. Was released to North and South America.

But V30 was released in Europe and the H930G was specifically released in Italy. Their V30+ was even eligible for the official LG Bootloader Unlock Code -- which we don't need thanks to WTF exploit.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Orof:
So was the v30s ever released in italy? If not, that might also be the reason it is not listed there even though it only got one major update...

I don't know... Better ask lg directly i guess
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] src151:
Fully expected. After years with LG, moving to S20+ anyway.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
V30s was not released in Europe either but it also got two OS updates: Oreo and Pie.

Is considered the V30 variant which LAUNCHED with Nougat.

It was merely V30+ updated to Oreo and 2GB RAM added prior being sold to the public. V30S is still a JOAN phone, which "launched" with Nougat. If someone doesn't know what that means, it means it's a V30 and runs V30 firmware. It's even in the model number V30S

V30S was merely a re-modeled house not a brand new house. It was a marketing gimmick, not an actual new phone.

But I'm repeating myself...if it was a new phone with OREO it would have had TREBLE. It doesn't, so that irrefutablly proves it was not a new phone!

Any website that says otherwise really has no clue what they are talking about. ;) They never actually owned a V30S and they probably don't understand that all new Android phones with Oreo (or later) REQUIRE Treble.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] cmrntnnr:
Dear Brian Kwon,

You are tasked with turning around LG's failing mobile divison. The task will be difficult, but there is good news. LG makes flagship phones with phenomenal hardware. The problems at LG are self-inflicted and can be fixed. You might take a moment of your time to browse threads like this one on xda for a sense of the problems. Three of them are software support, communication, and execution. There are a a few simple things for you to do. 1) Flagship phones like the V and G series should ship with current versions of Android. 2) LG should standby their committments to release updates. 3) LG should be transparent with customers, stonewalling is unacceptable.

The V30 flagship is a great example of LG's problems. For clarification I am referring to the open market V30. It was released with Android 7 even though 8.1 was the current release. There have been a few security updates but no Pie. My wife's Sony XZ2 Compact has been on Pie for 18 months. Part of the appeal of Android is running AoSP roms. It would be refreshing to know in advance which models LG will allow bootloader unlock and rooting. Even better, just offer the option. It is also unacceptable that the software stack for use on Verizon is broken, i.e. no VoWIFI or Visual VoiceMail.

These issues are a toxic combination for anyone laying out USD800 or more to keep for two to four years. You should think of fixing these problems as building and maintaining a relationship with your customers and distributors. Their safisfaction is your success.

The lack of loyalty and transactioanl behavior of LG hits home when it comes time to buy a new phone. I have a couple of V30s', and they weren't cheap. The hardware is holding up well and that is great. I'll be in the market for a new device in a 18 months or so. It shouldn't be for access to security updates or current Android. It should be for new hardware and the capabilities new hardware creates like longer battery life, 5G, speed and so on.

For these reasons, I am not considering an LG model like a V50 in the future and I am sure I am not alone. I hope you change my mind.

Thank you,

cmrntnnr
