[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers] VeEuzUKY:
Rooting fold 2 = tab s7 plus?

With the bootloader unlocked I would assume one should be able to perfectly root the Fold 2 5G in a very similar fashion as I have successfully rooted my Galaxy Tab S7+ 5G:

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-s7/how-to/how-to-root-galaxy-tab-s7-guide-t4155897

I don't have a Fold 2 5G to try it, so I'm just speculating. But given that the internals are nearly fully identical, I can't see a reason why it would not work. Again, I'm just speculating..

Any chances to do it without root?
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] JohnTheFarm3r:
Without root or without unlocking the bootloader? I think the only way is to go with Magisk module.
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] iHusky:
I found working Viper4android tutorial, somewhere here, but first thing which must be done, is a root access, so if you want root (using magisk), you must unlock bootloader.

When in on a phonecall, it happen a few times that the person I'm taking with is "calling" me, the phone is ringing likes a second call and it seems that when i answer, the line doesn't really flip, or at least, the call is continuing. It happen with 3 different persons which aren't on the same phone company

I updated my p3 to Android 11, is never happen before

Anyone experiencing this?

I haven't had an LG phone since the VX9400 and this one has me interested again. I was reading on LG's website and it looks like all of their phones' bootloaders can be unlocked according to this https://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev Is that true? Will it work on the Verizon variant?

[LG Wing Questions & Answers] revized:
Yes in dev options, haven't really done much with the one i had, it was a demo phone, but i did manage to get like 90% normal functional, restart doesn't change anything back to demo, can go into all options (dev mode) etc. Just no functional android market, install apks works though, no lock screen 50% battery limit. Well sold it now anyway.

I stay far away from verizon, in my opinion they are closest to iPhone as for being controlling.

[LG Wing Questions & Answers] xSe7eNx:
I also have an oem unlock toggle option. I have a tmobile version, but I am using a mint mobile sim in it and it works just fine without ever having to use the tmobile unlock app (somehow).

That being said bim getting ready to see If I can get adb to recognize my phone in a sec. I'll let y'all know if I figure out anything to unlocking the bootloader. Wish me luck.

Edit:

Update: Here are some instructions to unlock LGs bootloader. Figured I'd leave this here for others to see if they're eligible.

LG Developer

The official developer resources for LG products and platforms.

developer.lge.com
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] kaluna00:
Best of luck. Where are you located? I've read this is possible for UK version. But I have heard that it is not possible for US Virgin Islands. Hopefully you're able to figure out something good.👍🏼
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] xSe7eNx:
I'm from the US and I have a LOT of different simcards and swapping between them I have managed to change from the T-Mobile boot logo to an LG one. I've also managed to access both fastbootd and recovery (using a Linux setup) and I'm thinking we can sideload magisk fellas. Do you think while in recovery if we download an update from SD card and select the magisk22.zip file, that it could work? I'm this close to trying it myself but I just really don't want to brick the phone 😂

I'm from US. Oem unlock is available in my dev tools. I'm using a sprint sim. And my phone model is LM-F100TM and no longer shows the Tmobile boot logo and now shows LG as the boot logo. (My stock apps have also changed too)
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] kaluna00:
Being able to Root this thing would be awesome. Sounds like you're much farther along then anyone else I've heard of. Keep it up!
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] RheinPirat:
I had the wing in my hand today... wow, I almost bought it to replace my OP 7Pro. Then i googled how to unlock it and then this thread. Its sad. LG should make it possible to unlock ALL devices, because they close the mobile business worldwide :/
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] IM0001:
Nothing is happening with this phone until the Bootloader is unlocked as currently fastbootd doesn't allow anything to be done that I could find. Hopefully LG does a mass unlock allowance with their unlock tool near the end of the 2 year support life of the Wing and their other phones, or someone who fancy's finding a way to unlock it themselves grabs a Wing and takes up the challenge.

While I used to need Root for a few things, these days I am pretty much only wanting it for full Titanium Backups and the occasional tinker. For now though, I was actually able to transfer and do everything I needed without root while setting up my Wing and so far, things are going pretty good considering LG's past. This current OS/Launcher are rather good and leaving me much less wanting and more enjoying using a phone again as something fun and different and I couldn't be happier.

I do hope a bootloader unlock does arrive sometime in the future, and I also would reallllllly like if a few Devs for things like keyboards especially, would at least cook in the Wing 2nd screen SDK into their boards to support the small number of us, but overall this thing is still one heck of a device and is vastly better than bending plastic screens IMO.
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] kaluna00:
@IM0001

I am definitely in the same camp as you. And couldn't have said it better myself. I used to root all of my phones and would not buy a phone I could not root.

Root (on this device) "would be nice to have", but I don't feel constrained without it. And this form factor definitely suits my style more so than a folding screen. The Wing is SOLID!
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] xSe7eNx:
So if I patch a boot.img with magisk and use magisk to flash could that... possibly... Work?
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] fuadhdmini:
Most unlikely. Because the first step is to unlock the bootloader, no?
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] VioletStorm:
Has any progress been made in this?
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] fuadhdmini:
no it wont work. the requirement to proceed with the steps is to have bootloader unlocked first. and to unlock bootloader requires unique bootloader key from LG which is explained here https://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] ManoharMaddineni:
Really hope LG does this at the end of 2 years. A petition, somewhere LG would notice would really help I think.

(PS. They already released the kernel sources for the Wing: http://opensource.lge.com/osSch/list?types=ALL&search=LMF100 )

As for the 2nd screen SDK, I think there will be some sort of support (albeit buggy and unoptimized) to allow apps to auto-stretch to additional screens as foldable phones become more widespread
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] TechX1991:
Got one of these devices in hand today thanks to work, a Verizon device.. If you have no OEM Unlock in Developer Settings, then you have to hope for an exploit to gain root or GSI possibilities. I might try to buy this off my boss, as I wanted this phone anyway, but if there's no way to root/rom, i won't be interested.

I have a background in sometimes cracking these things and finding a way, but as of right now, this one doesn't look like anything I'd try would work
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] kaluna00:

[LG Wing Questions & Answers] TechX1991:
been messing with this some more tonight... its amazing what you can do with modified APK's and adb commands

Still no unlock :/ I got to Fastbootd, but my device WILL NOT boot to bootloader to run fastboot commands, only recovery and fastbootd -- anyone else experience this?

Also on further inspection, I entered the service menu under Android 11 and found "Bootloader Unlock Check Test" and discovered "Bootloader unlock does not support device"
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] MrLeronex:
So first of all, the chance of lg offering a bootloader unlock ESPECIALLY for the wing and ESPECIALLY for US variants is like 0.000001%, since the LG Dev website where the bootloader unlocks are given shuts down end of this year.

So the other option would be a engineering bootloader and a firehose to access EDL.

-OEM Unlock only allows "OEM" commands like "fastboot oem unlock" or "fastboot flash unlock unlock.bin" to unlock the bootloader.

-Fastbootd is not able to unlock the bootloader, if there will be a engineering bootloader, we will have to flash the bootloader (abl.img) from a european firmware to access normal Fastboot and not fastbootd.
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] Bahmale:
Great jop👍 Ps help me to unlock bootloder my Lg. Wing t mobile
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] TechX1991:
OEM Unlock can be entirely useless actually. Take the tcl 10 pro for example. it has oem unlock and normal fastboot, BUT there's no bootloader unlock commands even possible, no oem commands, nothing
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] MrLeronex:
it is entirely useless, oem unlock can be turned on by flashing* any other frp partition from a phone that has it enabled.

Also, you probably mean fastbootd, since it is missing unlock binaries .

*even on a locked bootloader
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] TechX1991:
Nope, I know what modes I'm in lol I co-own a micro electronic repair shop and I'm in charge of all things android and windows. TCL 10 Pro's have NO OEM fastboot codes. Its entirely possible for a company to remove that stuff. That was my point. Even if you can enable OEM Unlock, that doesn't mean there's a way. Some samsung's have OEM Unlock, but bootloader unlocks haven't been possible on US based devices without exploit since like the Galaxy S8/Galaxy Tab 2018

So yesterday I bought the tab 7+ and super excited, untill I met a friend who told me the iPad pro is much better! He showed me a bench mark video where iPad beats the tab on every aspect.

So my question, shall I open the tab7+ or return it for iPad? And why?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Questions & Answer] sanvara:
What's more relevant is how the benchmarks translate into real world performance for normal tasks. There are also other factors to consider. I own an iPad Pro and I hate not having expandable storage. The iPad Pro is also more expensive and requires spending another $100+ on a pencil. S7+ has a better screen. iPad Pro doesn't have Dex OS features, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Questions & Answer] vangry2020:
Why would anyone switch a fully customizable tablet with something that's locked has less ram and has a worse screen Is the question. Benchmarks are meaningless when important factors come into place also they don't translate much in the real world.

My other issue is that the apps on iPad are more compatible than on Android tablets in general. Bench mark is usually what makes a device more reliable in the future or as I understood from my friend. Which means in a year time the tablet still perform as new where the tablet gets laggy over time. Please correct me if I am wring

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Questions & Answer] stondec100:
IPhones and iPads always do much better than Android devices in benchmarks but in real world use the Android counterparts perform faster in speed tests. Comparing my Tab S7+ to the iPad, it's actually faster and just as smooth as the iPad pro. It also has numerous Advantages over the IPad pro.

- Has Micro SD card support

- Comes with a stylus right out of the box

- Unlike the Apple pencil the S Pen doesn't not need to be charged to work (only needs a charge for Bluetooth/gesture functions)

- Tab S 7+ is more functional right out of the box

- Screen looks better than IPad

I could go on.

I got the S7+ last Saturday and I'm very happy. In my country, Samsung's having promotion which give away the keyboard cover. So I just need to buy SD card and hub to make it a perfect laptop.

I've just used S7+ for some minor gaming, emulator + Word + Excel + PPT + Ecosia...

Believe in me, the S7+ will not make you feel you'in in jail like iPad Pro :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Questions & Answer] yuri624:
My Tab S7+ had 6 GB ram, the iPad Pro has 6 GB ram.

Also people choose Apple over Android mostly because of the eco system. If you already have an iPhone and/or Mac it makes more sense to go with an iPad as everything fits better between devices.

The 865+ can't even play League of Legends: Wild Rift on ultra with a locked 60 fps, I had framedrops down to 50-52 in fights. My three and a half year old iPad Pro 2017 (A10X chip) never drops one frame. Same for Call of Duty Mobile, Pubg Mobile and other games. Yes the 865+ is nice, but at least in gaming performance it's worse than the A10X, leave alone the A12X / A12Z (iPad Pro 2018/2020) .

Yes, having choices is aweseome. I actually wanted to change from my 2017 iPad Pro to the Tab S7(+) because the screen aspect ratio is wider (16:10) and with apps I can change it to 16:9 and output that via hdmi. Unfortunately both the S7 and the S7+ can not output hdmi without disconnecting every few minutes (the developers know about it but who knows when it is fixed... weeks, months?).

I had the Tab S7, Tab S7+, iPad Pro 2020 and iPad Pro 2017 here. The S7's are on par with the 2017 iPad Pro, a bit faster in quite some apps, slower in most demanding games. The S7's stand no chance in performance heavy tasks against the 2020 iPad Pro. App/game load times, heavy duty video rendering the S7's get demolished.

I understand 90%+ of all people using their tablet will not need that extra performance or even notice they are missing it (you only really notice when you compare the devices side by side)

Even tho I kind of "rambled" about how the iPad Pro in fact IS faster (not "better") it all depends what YOU want to do with it.

- Do you watch a lot of movies/series on your tablet? Any "dark" content will look better due to the OLED display on the S7+ (for example the series Daredevil or Punisher... sooo many night scenes). Also the 16:10 screen aspect ratio is nicer for watching video in my opinion

- Do you game a lot? If yes, HEAVY games? Do you care about having ultra quality? Then the iPad Pro is MUCH more capable and will be enough for at least 1-2 more years to come. If you don't play the heaviest games or don't need ultra quality in every game then the Tab S7+ will do just fine!

- Do you want to expand storage with a SD card? -> Ipads can't do that

- Do you surf the web a lot? The iPad Pro's screen aspect ratio feels a lot better for me doing that.

- Do you hold your tablet a lot in your hand for long periods of time? If yes, the S7+ is ~70 grams lighter compared to the 12.9" iPad Pro. This doesn't sound like too much but you will notice it quite a bit after some time

I have often wondered exactly how to describe the MAIN is with an iPad (my iPad Pro is a wonderful device and the Magic keyboard makes it even better BUT) proper access to the file system literally annoys me almost EVERY time I use it. Saving photos or files from another device or camera, files from an email, a PDF it just annoys the CRAP out of me. And the point is nailed home EVERY time I ask my 29yo iOS fanboy ..... “if you had this situation, how would you do it (like saving a file)” ..... watching him fumble convinced me that although overall the iPad is ready to use the proper access to the file system is an almost deal killer

If you never use a PC and only use Mac then staying in the same ecosystem with the iPad might be enough to learn the other way but if you still use a PC then the iPad will be a good device but for me always leaving me wanting
