[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Dewaynelives:
Actually You're wrong! It wasn't cause I rooted maybe if you read the whole thing you'd understand! They set me up with an appointment to flash the device with a flashing appointment and the guy started and stopped mid flash 3x then it got stuck in Qualcomm crash mode and he said to replace it! I have waited over a month for a refund also and the replacement as far as that I don't even want to deal with them anymore! They have no idea what goes on in this company and for over a thousand dollars you damn right I'm gonna be pissed.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] crzycrkr:
So you're waiting for a refund or a replacement? Did you send everything back? If you send everything back and haven't gotten the refund, dispute it with your credit card company.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Dewaynelives:
Request replacement they told me to change it to refund cause it would be two months for a replacement and still nothing. If you want proof message me I'll send you proof. I sent everything back I have screenshotted the chats and all.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] crzycrkr:
So if you sent everything back, why are you even bothering arguing with them? Dispute it with your credit card company and get your money back.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Dewaynelives:
because it could take up to 6 months for my fund to be available through paypal and i really dont want to risk a chargeback because i was told today that i wouldnt receive a refund through my original payment method but i would receive a refund through an offline way. im guessing a check. but anyways i was told that they wasnt even gonna do that cause previous reps had messed my account up and they would have to send me a replacement or process a replacement before sending a check...
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Dewaynelives:
UPDATE*

So today i called and got ahold of a new guy that seems to know alot more about this situation than others. The guy went through all my chats and call logs took over an hour and got back to me and let me know that what i was told was incorrect even though 5 people told me about the long up to 3 months wait . He also told me that the system had a glitch that was giving that incorrect information and also told me that because my original rma was for replacement that i would not be able to get an online refund it would be an offline payment. He said that he had seen how they had give me the misinformation adn that the way they would refund me is i would have to wait till they sent me an offline payment. I told the guy that i originally just wanted a replacement and he said that was what i shouldve gotten but due to the glitch inn their system it wasnt sending the request through. Long story short this guy was really nice and went through all my stuff and set me back up for a replacement that way i would have the replacement within the next week and then if i wanted a refund i could send it back as refund and it would go on my original payment method. This guy was very helpful and took alot of time to try to help me, This guy even told me that the flashing support had sent me the wrong files originally because i was sent to the wrong region for flashing and that guy should have never cancelled the flash until it failed or cancelled. So all in all i should have a replacement by next week i have to call back wednesday if i havnt gotten an update. They also are goin to send me the Bullet Z and Wireless charger back but right now im just trying to get the replacement then i will deal with the other stuff. This is just proof that a couple people giving mis information can messs up a whole company image.

Thank you for contacting OnePlus Customer Support.

We apologize for the delay in response and we understand your concern regarding the replacement status of your device.

We can surely assist you with that.

The replacement was not processed since the device is not available in stock and we can assist you with the refund.

We request you to let us know if you have shipped the accessories already, so that we can proceed accordingly.

Looking forward to your response.

Regards,
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] crzycrkr:
Okay, so a week ago they were still waiting on the accessories. They're not going to process a refund before they get everything back
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Dewaynelives:
No they had received them but the page wouldn't allow me to add the tracking number so the labels they couldn't pull up. I had to give them tracking cause they sent me the label and then they couldn't track it cause they didn't have it in the service page cause it doesn't allow you to add tracking info.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Josh McGrath:
I don't know what happened and haven't read anything in here but I have to agreed yes they are a bunch of damn morons who don't even know what they're products are either. I had to explain to them that there is a TMobile model early at release

So yes, total morons and I hope I never have to deal those idiots ever again

Sadly they are known for horrible customer service
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] yodasmaster:
I've contacted them a couple of times and they have be great with me. You have to understand the person on the other end is a human and can make mistakes. But maybe that's because I allow the person I'm speaking to to find out information they don't have before calling them a moron.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Josh McGrath:
Or it could be the 6th call of which they sent me the Indian variant software because , and this is their exact words , "hd1907 doesn't exist" . Yes. Morons.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Dewaynelives:
UPDATE*

Just got my replacement shipping information so my device is just now being shipped it may have been a month of waiting but at least now I am not out of money and device. Next I have to get my accessories back because I have had no update on those
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Whiskey1412:
I already wrote 8 times to them to get the missing screen protectors. They promised twice, but never got them. Since 4 weeks.

Oneplus has great phones, but surely the worst customer supporrlt i ever experienced.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Josh McGrath:
Yes, it's the worst of the worst. They are known for their Idiocracy customer service
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Whiskey1412:
Once i accidently activated the recovery mode on my Oneplus 6t what resulted in a loop. So i contacted the Oneplus Support to find out what to do. The customer service said, the only thing i can do ist to reset the whole smartphone and lose all data. Nothing to lose, i then tried every possible button combination and finally rebooted back into Android and everything was okay. So, the conclusion is, the support does not even know the absolute basics of their phones.

And the Oneplus Karbon cover for the Oneplus 8 Pro was of totally bad quality, but did not got exchanged (i bought it one ebay from the pop up box) but the support said, they cannot change it, because it could have been used for ponger than their guaranty on covers is. Not to mention, that at this point, the release of the cover was less than two weeks ago, their guarantee was two weeks, so it was impossible it would have been older at that time...

[Nexus 7 General] enderzip:
Have you ever experience slow down, lag or even freeze on your Nexus 7 2012? Well there is a solution to this problem by changing your files system to F2FS, this solution will not revive your old and dying flash memory but it will greatly improve performance on any ROM, especially Android 5.1. There is many methods on XDA like ParrotMod by parrotgeek1. But F2FS is a more well known method for this.

REQUIREMENTS

1. TWRP recovery installed.

2. A ROM that support F2FS (search Google for this).

3. A kernel that support F2FS (most likely will be included in the ROM).

1. REBOOT INTO TWRP (duh)

2. BACKUP YOUR FILES (optional)

Step 1: Press "Backup"

Step 2: Select System, Data and Boot.

Step 3: Swipe to Backup

Step 4: Wait...

Step 5: Copy the backup files to your PC (copy the BACKUPS folder)(/sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/)

Congratulation, you have successfully backup your device.

3. FORMAT TO F2FS (the fun part :))

Step 1: Press "Wipe".

Step 2: Press "Advanced Wipe".

Step 3: Select the partition you want to format to F2FS. The ROM you choose might not support /system F2FS so you have to be careful. After that, press "Repair or Change File System".

Step 4: Select "Change File System".

Step 5: Press "F2FS".

Step 6: Swipe to Change.

Step 7: Wait...

Step 8: (optional) Copy your BACKUPS file to your device and select "Restore" on your TWRP home screen.

Step 9: (optional) Select the folder you just copy to your device.

Step 10: (optional) Select the partition you want to restore.

Step 11 (optional) Swipe to Restore.

After its done, you can reboot your device.

Congratualtion, you have successfully format your files system to F2FS.

Note: If you want to change your device back to EXT4, follow the step above, press "EXT4" instead of "F2FS" at Step 5.

TROUBLESHOOTING

My device is stuck at the Android screen!

Power off your device and follow this guide:

I have a 2012 nexus 7 that's so soow and unresponsive It used to be so awesome and snappy. Does this make the 2012 nexus 7's usable again
[Nexus 7 General] enderzip:
Depend on the ROM you are using. I suggest you use the ParrotMod by parrotgeek (the link is in the post). F2FS need a compatible ROM to work, and sometimes will cause compatibility issues.

Yes, it will greatly improve your Nexus 7's eMMC performance.
[Nexus 7 General] Jeffdaddy:
Tried to follow your tutorial my TWRP didn't have a change to f2fs, am I doing something wrong?View attachment 5026845
[Nexus 7 General] enderzip:
You need to update your TWRP recovery to the lastest version. TWRP link: https://dl.twrp.me/grouper/

Select the lastest version (3.3.1-0) to download it. After that, just flash the .img file.
[Nexus 7 General] Jeffdaddy:
Well, it sounded good but everytime I convert to f2fs it has a boot screen asking me for the decrypt password and won't let me get past that, but when I convert back to ext4, no boot screen, ever deal with this? I only get the but screen in f2fsm
[Nexus 7 General] enderzip:
Try to boot it without restoring the backup.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] easyrider77:
So I finally unlocked my LG V30+ on sprint, (LS998)

I'm curious about anyone who has UICC unlocked the phone on a sprint network, then switched over to tmo, cricket, vz, simple mobile, metro or some other company:

-Did everything work ok, data and voice?

-Did you have any issues? if so what where they

-other than popping the sprint sim out and the other sim in, did you have to do anything else to get it to work, ie: new apn?

I ask because doing a Google search and landing on sprint forums it seems that some have switched to tmo and had issues..... Most common ones seem to be either they have data and no voice, or they have voice but no data.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] R800x_user:
Well I didn't uicc unlock but I did flash us998 kdz on my ls998 and it sim unlocked it fine. I was using it on T-Mobile.

Everything worked as intended, volte and calls over WiFi worked fine. No issues at all. The only thing this phone needs is proper Android 10 support. WiFi on Android 10 for the v30 is a hit and miss. There are fixes available but that was too much of a hassle for me personally. Went back to stock.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
That's because the Sprint firmware does not have all the bands necessary for other carriers. It's still a Sprint phone. Whereas if you convert it to US998 it would be more compatible with other carriers. Like stated above, on T-Mobile you get VoLTE, Wi-Fi calling, etc. Or use the "US998" on AT&T. Once converted it takes on the bands/modems of the firmware you are converting to.

I know you've already carrier unlocked your phone, but the easiest, most common way to carrier unlock LS998 is to convert to Open Market US998 or some North American carrier unlocked firmware. Which also gives you the advantage of better LTE bands. ;) See attached screenshots.

No one who is not a Sprint customer leaves LS998 on Sprint firmware. ;) At least people who have access to information on XDA. See

Frankenstein instructions.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] schwinn8:
Like the other said.... make it a US998 phone and you can go wherever you want. I had my converted US998, which I then converted to VS996. This was used on Verizon and now on TotalWireless with no issues. I'm thinking of going back to US998 since I don't have to have VZ stuff on it anymore.

Make the jump and you'll be happy. US998 is a great place to be (except on VZ, where VS996 makes sense).
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] easyrider77:
Yeah, if I end up switching carriers, I'll be kdz flashing the us988.

I left a lengthy thread on going back to sprint via the ls988 and frankenstien way, but I was wondering since you have to be rooted and bl unlocked, the phone won't register correctly back on sprint if the bl is unlocked, so in that case what do you do?

If it's not possible to do, then it's pretty much once you leave sprint it's a done deal, no going back.

Here is the thread:

https://xdaforums.com/lg-v30/how-to/simple-question-us988-to-lg988-t4096609
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] schwinn8:
Read the thread. Believe ChazzMatt's statements, as he is the expert on this phone and process. In the very thread you quoted, he says:

"Lots of Sprint people who have temporarily converted to US998, unlocked bootoader, then flash back to Sprint firmware -- keeping TWRP and root. One of our main DEVs is a Sprint customer. So your worries are totally baseless.

Why do you think we have TWRP flashable zips Sprint firmware to flash back to, if the phone couldn't be used?"

Bottom line, you'll be fine. The trick is you need to be already activated on Sprint. Verizon does the same BS... they won't let you activate on a non-VZ phone just because they're idiots. There is no reason not to do this, as you certainly can work with these phones. As I (and many others) have proven time and time again. I'm guessing Sprint may do the same thing...
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ncromer31:
I just purchased a Lg V30 H932 64GB (T-Mobile + GSM Unlocked) off ebay a few days ago. I put my At&T sim in it and set my APN settings to AT&T's (NXTGENPHONE) which is what I had on my old phone (LG K20 Metro unlocked).

I can call, text, and get online but the mobile hotspot isn't working. It allows other devices to connect but says " NO INTERNET".

Its very frustrating because I rely on my hotspot to use my pc and other devices. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Probably should have bought Open Market US998. Easily root and use hotspot.

Maybe if you root the T-Mobile H932 you can get hotspot working, but T-Mobile H932 is more difficult to root than the other variants. You also can NOT cross flash T-Mobile H932 to any other variant.

See post #1:

ROOT YOUR V30!

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] TheDannemand:
It is true that H932 is the most locked down V30 model, and not one to recommend, except for users who need LTE band 71 (which only this model supports).

BUT I had no problems using HotSpot with my H932 on Red Pocket GSMA (AT&T MVNO). I just set it up under Tethering and it worked no problem. Of course the APN has to be correct for it, and I cannot tell you what that should be for native AT&T.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ncromer31:
I wish I had known more about this before I bought it. I just assumed everything would work right since it was unlocked and compatible with AT&T. I never had any issues with my Metro phone that was unlocked.

I've never rooted or flashed a LG phone before and am kinda worried about messing it up. I've used Odin with my S5 and flashed it but never rooted it. I thought setting the apn settings to what I had them as on my previous phone would work but it doesn't. I searched the network operators and it only showed "RAT : ATT " and " RAT : WCDMA".

network mode only listed these options:

Automatic LTE/3G/2G

Automatic 3G/2G

LTE/3G

2G Only

The network mode I was using (on previous phone) was GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto but I dont have that option now..

Thanks for the help!
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ncromer31:
I actually fixed it and it was quite simple..I went to my apn settings. I used the NXTGENPHONE settings except I added "dun", to the end of my apn type!
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] TheDannemand:
Good, makes sense. As much as I agree about the limitations of H932, inability to tether isn't one of them!
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Glad you got it working. The reason I suggested root is because there are some carriers who won't let you have hotspot without paying extra for the privilege of using your own phone to its full extent. Rooting solves that. ;)
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] TheDannemand:
Fair enough: Adding "dun" to the APN only works when tethering is permitted by the carrier -- and it allows the carrier to meter the tethered data, and throttle it if they want. Personally I haven't had a traditional carrier in years, and the MVNO I use isn't the shenanigans type.

But do we really need root to work around that? I recall an old all trick from my Nexus 5 days where we would set tether_dun_required=0 in the global settings database using ADB, with no root required. I haven't had to do this on V30, again because I have avoided those carriers. But I would guess it still works.

I am asking, since surely you would know :)
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Verizon is a carrier who won't allow you to "tether" without paying a separate hotspot fee per month. For those people still on legacy (true) unlimited data, many use root to get around that.

https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/mobile-hotspot-faqs/
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] TheDannemand:
Absolutely. We know that the traditional carriers like to limit or throttle tethering. I think T-Mobile does too. The dun feature exists to help them control that, by classifying tethered data separately from other data.

What I meant was do we really need root to work around that on V30? Doesn't the old trick I mentioned (or maybe a newer one) work on V30?

Edit: I may actually test that to find out. Dun in the APN shouldn't be needed in 2020.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
I wasn't aware of any trick other than rooting because I've always had rooted phones...

In all my years of Androids I've really only needed hotspot one time -- when I was in Brazil. But I was rooted and it worked great.

Yes, I've tested a couple of other times, but again I'm rooted.
