[LG G8 Questions & Answers] TPMJB:
Hey guys, think there's any hope for me? The phone will boot, and the IMEI isn't blacklisted, but I can't get past the setup screen as the phone can't connect to wifi or the cell phone towers. Phone is unlocked, so it should be able to connect to a T-Mobile MVNO, but it won't.

It's a Sprint phone and can be bootloader unlocked, but if I can't get past the setup screen I think I'd be unable to perform this.

Edit: I got it to get into Download mode, but can't find the Sprint kdz file anywhere. Anyone know where to look?
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] Shtiff1:
I'm pretty sure they don't have them for sprint.
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] antintin:
There's a way. I'll find the YouTube link; it's basically a way to bypass frp lock, but the way it works is to completely bypass setup, so it should work for you.

---------- Post added at 02:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:41 AM ----------

[youtube]RBTfK7TbWa0[/youtube] here's the video that worked for me, and I was able to just install the quick shortcut apk within the chrome app by clicking on the apk, enabling unknown sources, and clicking back to just go to chrome. To debloat the sprint activation, enable developer settings and usb debugging really quickly before it pops up after a restart (unnecessary if it can connect to WiFi then). If your security patch is too late for this method, you can find other YouTube videos for "lg g8 frp bypass"
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] TPMJB:
Yeah unfortunately I can't connect to wifi either. Phone seems hosed to me - I was told it was "unlocked" but I was unable to use my T-Mobile MVNO with it. There seemed to be something wrong, either software ore hardware, that is unfixable at the moment.

If I could get the KDZ, I'd be able to check if it was software.

Either way, going back to the vendor because his claims were inaccurate.
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] antintin:
There's no kdz
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] zeek6228:
Where are you getting stuck? On "activating device" or is it asking for google account? For activating device just press all of the buttons many times at once, it will go away (or wait about 5 minutes). You don't need to connect to any network, just get to the main screen and put in your SIM card, if it is unlocked it will pick up signal (if it is not unlocked it will say INVALID SIM). Then ##3282# select APN, click 3 dots in upper right, then reset to default.
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] TPMJB:
Meh, I mean I wasn't about to screw around with that. I sent it back to the buyer as you can't get past setup without a lot of work. It's a shame because it's a Sprint phone, but by all accounts it isn't unlocked either since it couldn't work with my SIM card. Speed Talk uses T-Mo towers, so it should work in an unlocked phone.

you can flash without unlock bootloader

it only works if you are actually updating from your own device and not by manual updating because you chose the MIUI ROM file incorrectly

Anyone else notice a shorted battery life on the new FW? BBS reports an average usage of 7%p/h whereas previously is was getting 4.5-5%ph?

Its a totally clean build, full wipe when updated and apps not restored.

I have considered that it's the battery learning my usage but I've been on ths build for a week so it should have done that by now

Thanks
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] en2tri:
I actually noticed this morning that the phone discharged 9% overnight, which I thought was random... until i saw this thread.

Will keep an eye on the battery in the next days to see it this was just a one-off or something more.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] captain sideways:
Thanks for that, yeah I'm still tracking mine as well, I'm pretty sure something is eating battery, just can't pin down whay the cause is.

After the first post I checked my BBS when I had 1% left. I had 19hrs usage as opposed to 30hrs(ish) but, also I had 10hrs SOT so it could well be that I'm using my phone more but not really aware of it.

I'll update when I have anything useful

BBS Screenshot attached.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] en2tri:
I think the battery is okay, that was just one-off. Usually the battery drops 2-3% overnight, which I think is okay.

I think it was just the batter learning my usage, I'm now averaging 1-2%ph with my normal usage :)

[MENTION=10428023]halcyon441[/MENTION] can you make the magisk manager not preinstalled as system?

Why?

Because when i tried "Hide Magisk Manager", the original magisk manager app is not uninstalled (if i am not wrong, it's supossed to automatically uninstall).

The "Hide Magisk Manager" it self is working as the randomize package magisk is created, but yeah the main problem is i can't find a way to uninstall the original magisk manager and if you tried uninstall it with 3rd party app it's just automatically bootloop.

[Samsung Galaxy J7 (2017) Questions & Answers] akathoristos:
Hey! Newbie here in need of some help... (sorry for the poor formatting)

So about two years ago i got a J7 Pro (box says SM-J730G/DS, which is important for later) from my carrier (IUS) (MX), and I tried to root it. Apparently it didn't go well or something, I honestly have no recollection, and then because of external forces I had to change to iPhone.

The only thing I remeber before I stopped using it is that the settings app was kinda messed up (eg. there were two "Battery" settings, there was a new option called "Service provider" which had the options "KT twophone service", which apparently is Korean, and "My Wi-Fi home settings", etc.) Also, I got a "Processing failed" error message when wanting to check for updates.

Now yesterday I decided to unearth it again and of couse everything was the same, so I investigated how to return to stock firmware. The Smart Switch option isn't possible anymore; the only viable way (atm) for me is via Odin. The phone also somehow does not boot into recovery mode by Volume Down + Power.

I downloaded the firmware, and this is where everything gets messy. It seems the firmware I had flashed previously was SM-J730GM, which is still the only one I can find for my carrier and region. It is the firmware too that I flashed today (J730GMUBU2AQI3 and J730GMUBU2AQF3) through Odin, however I was not able to flash the BL, CP and CSC, because I would get a myriad of errors (one run I would get "repartition operation failed", on another, "cm.bin fail", or fail on the "set .pit file", and so on).

Remember when I said the box info was important? Yeah, the app Phone Info *Samsung* says both the bootloader and the broadband version are J730GUBU1AQF3, not J730GMUBU2AQF3. However, Sammobile says that for my region/carrier (MX/IUS), it is GM, not G. The back of my phone, however, says J730G/DS

I am at a loss. I read that one possibility is to use the Re-partition and NAND Erase options in Odin, but since I don't know whether my phone is J730G or J730GM, and I don't have a way to backup my EFS folder, I don't feel like doing that.

Could someone please explain to me what I can do to fix this?

Here is the settings screenshots link: https:// imgur . com/a/7k8jZcX

And of the Phone Info app: https:// imgur . com/a/YDDhaqd

Again, I'm really sorry for the formatting.

1. Try heimdall instead of odin

2. Try with pc, adb fastboot wipe commands
[Samsung Galaxy J7 (2017) Questions & Answers] death.by.confusion:
Okay so,

1. What is the current state of your phone(is it bricked or working)?

2. What version of Android do you have( 7.0 Nougat ) or ?

If your phone is NOT bricked, I recommend first to go to developer settings and do OEM unlock

(you can enable developer settings by tapping the field Build Number fast multiple times in About phone information)

then, you can download stock firmware for J730G( not J730GM) and it doesn't have to be from your carrier or country.

After that, you can either use your stock rom or flash recovery and then flash custom ROM.

I have an LG Stylo 5X model LM-Q720TS and have had problems finding information on unlocking the bootloader. This will be the first root I have never rooted a phone before and really want to do this to my phone just to customize it and make it more secure. I also wanted to install pen testing software on it as well.

Anyway does anyone know of a site that can help me with the logistics of getting it done? I already have a full course on rooting android phones from Udemy and it was very informative on how to do it. I just don't have information on unlocking the bootloader for my phone I am sure I can get twrp for my phone if I can get it unlocked. So please if anyone can point me in the right direction I would appreciate it. Also, any links that lead me to useful software that can help facilitate this process would be great.

I have checked and I am using the correct firmware version and everything is correct it's not bricking my device it just isn't working though what did happen was it is I now have a custom rom on the download mode screen but I can't access any rooting features.

You can ignore this message. Chainfire or Cf autoroot works and need to manipulate parts of the Kernel to get root.

The message is just a Note for the Phone developer Samsung that a User dit change the Kernel to get root permission. So Samsung could read and knows that. It was just a notice if a user brick his Phone.

[General Questions and Answers] Powers301:
So I recently bought a phone on offerup. I have checked the IMEI for blacklist and financial status. It comes out everything is clean but only carrier locked to T-Mobile. I try to find a way to unlock my Oneplus 7T Pro Mclaren to root it and I found this website called cellunlocker.net. It cost 79 dollars to unlock it. It seems a reasonable price but I’m still unsure I can trust this website yet cuz too many unlock phone websites scam out there. If anyone here has experienced or done unlock with them, please let me know if this website is scam or legit. Thank you
[General Questions and Answers] Raiz:
I've never had to deals with those websites but 79$ is quite a lot when you think about it. I won't advise you to throw them in that website. Usually, when I have to Sim unlock my phone I ask directly to the carrier (it's free if you've paid off the device). They never refused.

If the phone is really financially clean, they won't refuse, I did that with my (very) old LG Optimus Black, the carrier was cool. But if it isn't I won't help you finding anything, as XDA isn't a place to ask for Piracy and warez (cf the rules).

The legal way is free and often a 1-click solution.

Edit: I think it a scam also
