Ok, thanks for the info. Let me run logcat again. I'm playing local files in 24bit 96kHz right now.

Oh ok, so it explains why I was lost haha

Does this means we should see battery improvements?
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] TrueNativeUser:
My ears have been vibrating too, true native mode makes the hub sound better than ever. I have never came (to such a realization) so quickly. Thank you sar
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] xxseva44:
Vbat has absolutely nothing to do with the dac, nor does the dac care about battery. It either gets the power or doesn't. Refer to the codec driver and kernel power subsystems (in which you'll find nothing because the dac doesn't care).

Also, are we going to keep pushing the "sabotage" theory? I explained what the true-native-path is for with references to the audio hal. Refer to my last set of posts.

This mod is pushing some serious misinformation to users.

A. The dac is NOT programmed by factory to run on "1 of the 4 dacs", that's not how it works in software or electrically.

B. The dac is not mono by default, and never has been, so I'm not entirely sure where this idea came from.

C. The dac does not have 92k+ channels; it has 2, as per the documentation.

D. Burn in? On a solid state chip? Unless you're testing chip stability, electrical property changes? That doesn't happen (and if it does happen, your chip has just failed the test).

I also worry about the audio side stability of the users using this mod as I've already seen backend errors. A user might hit an edge case where audio could just be messed up. Without adequate testing, this is very likely going to happen eventually.

In short, stop pushing misinformation, most of which is proven to be incorrect by the es9218xx documentation that can be found online and audio hal sources.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ROMSG:
Another Dev here just thought I'd add on. If anything the mods changes will actually increase power consumption slightly due to the backend faults. Additionally @Darnrain1 you seem to missunderstand what a "QuadDAC" is. A QuadDAC is not 4 individual DACs, it is instead a set of sub-DACs (Source). Audio is routed through each sub DAC to improve noise performance. You have NOT "reprogrammed" anything all you have done is add useless lines to mixer files which actually make performance worse and claiming to have made any kind of real improvement is utterly disrespectful to people like @xxseva44 who have spent weeks making legitimate imrpovements to the DAC experience.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RasalMu:
Hey Darnrain1 just registered to tell you that since version 50.1 the audio quality went down and never returned to that level where it was. It just started to feel pretty flat, and like it was thinned out of the fullness it had. This is why I'm keeping 50.1 as it was the peak in my opinion.

I was installing and trying every single version afterwards while also using your recommended Poweramp settings.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Darnrain1:
It's so nice that XDA offers an ignore option. ;)
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Darnrain1:
Well you could say I found the treasure, at the end of v151.1....

So this is what a QuadDAC sounds like Running in True Native Mode??? Cool....
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] xxseva44:
That is not how that mixerpaths file works. The dac also does not load the mixerpaths into it's memory as that has absolutely no relevance to the dac(Refer to how the audio hal reads this file). The only thing contained in the dac is firmware. For the sake of the users, stop pushing blatent misinformation.

Also, if it sounds the same, then there was never any difference to begin with.

I don't mean to be harsh with my comments, but it's the truth.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] AShiningRay:
Sorry but this is just wrong. The DAC does not retain anything in its memory because V20's ES9218, G6 to V50's ES9218P and even V60's ES9219 have no persistent storage for programmable data. It has a small pool to store its firmware data, but nothing more. (and you can't even update it like you can for ANX7688, V20's HDMI and USB-PD chip).

And i know for a fact this is the case because it's literally something i had to work around in the DAC panel implementation for the upcoming LOS 21 build (Related Commit), we basically NEED to save the DAC's last applied settings on the panel app's storage otherwise it gets lost after a quick simple reboot.

So yeah... as @xxseva44 wrote, if it still sounded the same to you after doing the whole TWRP dance, well, those changes and improvements might have been placebo all along, sorry.

Shame, since the DAC does still have some ways in which it could improve (especially on Lineage since we have a lot more leeway to go deep into it) but i don't think that tweaking mixer_paths randomly is the way to do it.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Darnrain1:
Well I am taking a little break, its just getting to crazy for me. I was only having a little fun reprogramming the QuadDAC. But it seems like everyone is freaking out about it. Everyone just needs to calm down and take a chill pill... :)

I am out, take care everyone...
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] AShiningRay:
Eh i don't mind, just don't go around spreading misinformation about this chip, since all the android-side changes have to pass through the kernel driver. (i can edit messages too, which is nice)

In any case, we (and Lineage) are here to help in case you need some pointers in the future about things you can implement into your android projects, and also open to contributions should you want to share any valid improvements.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] xxseva44:
The issue is not with the reprogramming about the dac -- it is about the blatent misinformation being posted about:

A. How the audio subsystems work.

B. How the device processes audio.

C. Incorrect information regarding the ess 9218 dac

Nobody is freaking about about it. Somebody has to stop the stream of misinformation one way or another with the best interest of users in mind. We are open to further discussion and recomendations as to how the dac and its functions can be altered.

Sidenote, blatently insulting the developers that maintain the device is not the best look.

"You guys just need to accept that fact, that some

people are smarter than you in this world...

Sorry but it's the truth and the truth hurts."

In anycase, as stated before, we're always open to future suggestions and improvements related to the dac. As for whether this will make it into future los releases, sadly it will not.

Thank you.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Darnrain1:
It looks like were back in business everyone, like I said I am just here to have a little fun. All I wanted to do is reprogram the QuadDAC on the Lgv20. Its never been done before in history to my knowledge, I think people are just having a hard time understanding that I did the impossible, by reprogramming the QuadDAC on the Lgv20. I am sure they are going to monitor this thread closer from now on, to make sure we are not bothered again.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Darnrain1:

Help!

I flashed DirtySanta_US99620F.zip but when I checked /system/priv-app the folder is blank resulting it won't boot to system!

Flashing A-O_US996_UNIVERSAL_20F_1.0.2.zip installs fine but then I flash the FM Radio, MK2000 (or ezV2020 Pie) kernel, Magisk v23, and Lemon Drop ZIP, deleted LGEntitlementCheckService and more select LG bloatware and now when I reboot to system I get constant app crashes related to com.android.phone (LG Phone), Call services, LG IMS, Second screen, Gaming, Google Services Framework, and more rendering the phone unusable.

I deleted those problematic system and Google apps to solve this and now it won't boot.

SOLVED: DO NOT EVER DELETE LGEntitlementCheckService, it's needed for the system!
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] xxseva44:
You deleted the ims components? That's probably causing the crashes. Please do some research before deleting system components.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DevanWolf:
I didn't delete those IMS system apps, but deleting those IMS system apps is what is causing it to be stuck at boot screen. I have a VS995 and what's wrong is that I am using the US996 version of TWRP and the MK2000 kernel, let me switch back to the VS995 ones and see if it solves that problem. EDIT: Reinstalled but not deleting LGEntitlementCheckService works again.

Dear darnrain,

Your Github account has been deleted and thus made your downloads gone. Please bring it back!
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Rypha:
Yeah, it's all gone. Shame because I was about to download it too. Just hesitated because I wasn't sure what the difference between the bass and treble versions was.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DevanWolf:
Finally back on GitHub again!
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Darnrain1:
Yeah I had a little issue, my laptop got stolen but I had a backup of the Lemon Drop Hi-Res. We are now back online under www.github.com/darnrain1

I still need to get a new lgv20 phone it also was stolen, so may not be anymore updates for awhile tell I get another lgv20. But the good news it that Lemon Drop Hi-Res is for the most part done v230.1.

Enjoy Everyone!
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nickb2b:
Hi Darnrain1,

I've been running v8.77 for awhile and wanted to update to the latest version before the name change to the hi res versions. Would you be able to upload v9.84?
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Darnrain1:
I don't have a backup of the older versions anymore. Sorry about that.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nickb2b:
Okay, thanks for letting me know.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Darnrain1:
I found v9.85 mega
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] wantpizza:
Hi Darnrain1,

Thanks for keeping the V20 alive.

I just found mine in my drawer and have a new job in mind for it. Is v9.85 the latest version?

Can I just say that I appreciate all the effort, what must be a HUGE number of hours, into keeping this old phone going?

Thank in advance,
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Darnrain1:
Well your very welcome, I love my old lgv20 that's why I made Lemon Drop. As for the v9.85 that's the latest version I could find. Enjoy.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nickb2b:
Thanks! Just want to confirm if this will work on the VS995 (can't recall but I think there were two versions)?
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Darnrain1:
that one was for the h910 only. I would go to the GitHub page and install the latest version.

[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] VelosterM14:
Darn impressive what you've accomplished here, @Darnrain1 !

It's a shame somebody didn't figure out something like this for H918 earlier. Just bought One Plus 9 Pro's.

Out of curiousity though, do you think it might be possible the EFS could be where stock (Nougat 10P or 10U) might store user-added certificates like a wifi client access cert and a user-added CA cert?

Somehow or another after zapping an H918 V20 back to stock Nougat 10P, factory reset and re-lafsploit'ing I got this phone back to stock+rooted but couldn't store any user added certs (stuck in loop prompting for pin), never figured that out. I think by time I asked about it (few months ago), most V20 users have moved on to other devices.

Anyway take care. Neat you got VoLTE and Wifi calling working with H910!
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] VelosterM14:
cool thanks! I did have some "fun" getting that one to format data after the stock re-flash, it got stuck in bootloop, someone else mentioned needing to factory reset, that got me to where it would boot into android and setup wizard stuff. Phone mostly seemed ok after that just couldn't add certs, would loop on setting the pin with an error (even if you set the pin manually in settings before trying to import/add cert from storage). May still have not had quite the right/old enough TWRP to really handle the erase/format of data right, after reflash. It had lineageos 17.1 on it prior to this and ran fine for long time..

Take care thank you for the info!

Hey all stock users

I've just made an experimental patch to allow my custom kernel to compile a stock compatible kernel. I stopped developing the stock kernel about 3yrs ago (but with a few small updates recently).

This custom kernel still actively developed, so would be cool if that could be used on stock as well. It's experimental as I mentioned, and I can't currently test myself as I don't want to install stock.

There are a few things missing, like LGs stock encryption, so that probably won't work, especially if you're already encrypted.

I'll put a build for H910 here if anyone wants to test :giggle:
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] askermk2000:
YW :)

It's not without mods exactly, but it should be compatible, more or less, with stock rom.

This is the kernel: https://github.com/stendro/msm8996_lge_kernel/commits/mk2000-custom/

Built with the included script, and new option (STOCK): "./build.sh H910 STOCK"
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] askermk2000:
Ah, don't format it!

Must be some incompatibility between sdfat and the stock tuxfat. If you don't format it, it will be back to normal when you switch back.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] askermk2000:
Yeah, my custom kernel is EAS (energy aware scheduling), so there's only one you should use in that case (schedutil), but there are a few of the HMP governors left if wish to use them, not sure if ondemand is there or not.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DesrtSailor:

Hi,

Please can you tell me know if VoLTE works in Australia for Telstra which it the largest mobile network carrier in this country? Other companies rent the same network such as Boost. The reason this is really important to know is that all the main carriers here are discontinuing 3G service in mid 2024. I just found this article from Telstra which says that once they discontine their 3G network that the only way to send and recieve calls will be with VoLTE in a 4G area. Here is a link if anyone wants to read that article.

https://www.telstra.com.au/support/mobiles-devices/enable-volte-mobile-phone#compatible-device

Please can anyone tell me if they've had success making VoLTE calls on the LG V20 especially using any of these inluded Rooted ROMs from this post? The Telstra network (also rebranded Boost & other 3rd party companies which rent the network form Telstra).

[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] frolay:
Hi, I managed to follow instructions and got TWRP on my H910. I then proceeded to flash “H910_20g_Oreo_full_rooted.zip”. After that I tried to flash “Auto_Debloat_H910_20g_only v9.1” but I get an error telling me that the file cannot flash due to the phone being “US996”. At this point if I reboot, I get a fuzzy screen TWRP is no longer installed and I have to start the rooting process over. Am I missing something?
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] q1nt:
Big thanks for keeping V20 alive! I'm running your DAC mods and they, um, rock. Maybe a little OT but I rooted and manually debloated (painful) my V20 a couple years ago. It's running H910_20h_Oreo_full_rooted, not the 20g you suggest. Problem is I can't get voice over VoLTE working with ATT now (data does work). Called ATT and they gave me the BS about not having the Oreo 8.1 update, which they claimed is needed for VoLTE. I read where you said you've got it working on 8.0, so ATT is clearly wrong. My kernel is v2.2mk2000. Is therre a chance I could flash the EZV2020 kernel and get VoLTE working, or do I need to stop being lazy and do the whole flash process over with 20h? Thanks again!
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] q1nt:
Appreciate the help. Will call those ATT rock heads again and see if they can enable VoLTE. I'm with you--still love my V20. Was using it overseas just fine but when I came back the US I ran into the VoLTE problem. I'm typing this on the new Pixel 6 Pro I bought just so I could make calls. Its OK, modern and all and now running Graphene OS, but I think I still like the V20 more with its removable battery, DAC, 2nd screen. Will use both if I can get VoLTE working.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] frolay:
Nice catch I was using the TWRP that comes with the “h910_root_pkg.zip” which is “twrp-3.0.2-1-us996.img” anyways to save some time I modified the “step3.bat file to install “twrp-3.6.2_9-0-h910.img”. After rooting I installed “H910_20g_Oreo_full_rooted.zip” and “Auto_Debloat_H910_20g_only_v9.12_flashable.zip”. The problem came when I rebooted the phone, it required a password. I tried factory resetting, formatting, and the password screen would reappear again. After much trial end error what let me clear the password requirement was downgrading to “twrp-3.0.2-1-us996.img, and re-flashing “h910-10r.zip” Once the password was cleared, I updated TWRP to the latest version, flashed Oreo and debloat 9.12, android loaded but I noticed LG music was not there. So, for now I am having the best results sticking with “twrp-3.0.2-1-us996.img” and de-bloating with “Auto_Debloat_Lgv20_msm8996_Oreo_v8.10_flashable.zip”. Anyways thanks to your great work. I can now have the best Mp3 player, one that can connect to a large SSD, and have Hi def music played on the go, all that with a removable battery. I love it.
[LG V20 Themes, Apps, and Mods] frolay:
Yes, Thanks for that I am definitely using your music mod. But the problem went a little further than that. This is the second H910 that I am attempting to root. For the first one I succeeded with your auto debloat V8. On this attempt I tried to use the newest twrp on the root and got partially corrupted, finally got it to load by downgrading the twrp but the load was partially corrupted, one time I saw your droid animation and when it finally booted into the rom, I saw that the LG music wasn’t there, when it should have been. At this point I almost thought I bricked this phone as I couldn’t load with the V8 method, I would get messages that my data is corrupted and the screen would randomly blank out. I finally unrooted it. Found your old instructions on your mega page. Re-rooted with the original twrp, loaded into android 7 using 10R kdz. Then followed your “Auto_Debloat v8.x Installation instructions” and the phone is now properly debloated again.

Just two quick questions, my entire library is in 16bit 44.1 KHz, as 16bit is better for me technically (more Bluetooth friendly), space wise, and to me 16bit and 24bit sound alike (I guess my ears aren’t that good although I can’t stand the way Mp3’s sound). Anyways I would prefer not to have to risk an up sampling as a bit perfect playback is always best. So if I set audio.offload.24bit.enable=0 and audio.offload.pcm.24bit.enable=False will that force the audio to always play in 16bit?

My next question is slightly off topic but is there any way to disable all wireless bands internally as I am not using the V20 as phones anymore They are now dedicated music players. Turning off the bands will help me feel more secure as well as save battery life. I know I can keep it on airplane mode but would like to disable them internally if possible.

Anyways Thanks so much.
