    Post Note8 Promotion shipping

    It said "Approved" shortly after I submitted it, but the status has been stuck on "in Progress" ever since. I submitted what I have in the past for Samsung promotions, so it SHOULD be right. I did go for the Gear 360 though, since I'm starting to accumulate a micro mountain of microSD cards, so...

    Post Note8 Promotion shipping

    You're luckier than I. I registered on release day too, but mine is still sitting on "Review in Progress".

    Post [Kernel] [6/26] [Next Generation] [EAS] [All Variants] Werewolf Kernel

    I'm running WETA 4.9.6, and this was the only kernel I was able to get Magisk working with, which is fantastic. I'm really hoping the bluetooth hand-off issues get ironed out though, as I've been wearing smartwatches for years now, and rewiring my brain to pay attention to the notifications in...

    Post [ROM][KERN] WETA 5.0.7 [16th.Jun]

    I learned long ago to use titanium backup to freeze the "FOTA Update" app, the two "System updates" apps, and the "Update Center" app. There's also an option under "Developer Options" for "Automatic system updates" that I tend to disable. Not sure which one of these actually accomplishes the...

    Post Help! Stuck in TWRP recovery

    You, sir, are a lifesaver. I jumped through all the same hoops as you and was actually starting to panic a little, as the last time I got into a similar string of unsuccessful fixes, I managed to hard brick my Note 2. This worked like a charm on my Verizon variant (the backup part was seemingly...

    Post [VS995 (VZW)][ROM + Kernel] NRD90M Modded NotSoStock ROM v5.5 1/1/2017

    I flashed a different version of V4A just to try out some additional features, and that's when it didn't seem to be working. After attempting to flash it again and clear the V4A data, I realized it didn't have any storage permissions. Sometime between the reflash, adding permissions, and...

    Post [VS995 (VZW)][ROM + Kernel] NRD90M Modded NotSoStock ROM v5.5 1/1/2017

    Could you elaborate on "properly installed busybox"? Did you just update busybox, or should it be installed somewhere other than /system/xbin (which BusyBox indicates it's currently installed to)? I tried installing busybox to the default /su/xbin, then reinstalled the V4A driver, but it still...

    Post List of Music Players that Use Our DAC (10j changes things)

    Did you happen to try Player Pro with the DSP pack? I'd be curious to find out how it works with the V20.

    Post List of Music Players that Use Our DAC (10j changes things)

    Thanks for the recommendations! I've been a longtime user of PowerAmp, to the point where I haven't even bothered looking into alternatives, but I've been slowly falling out of love with it. I'm not crazy about the stock LG player and am glad to know there are some high quality apps out there...

    Post [VS995 (VZW)][ROM + Kernel] NRD90M Modded NotSoStock ROM v5.5 1/1/2017

    Haha. Basically this. If you reboot with the phone plugged in, the motor doesn't stop until the phone boots all the way...or maybe that's just mine? Tested it. Still got static. I tried wiping cache/dalvik as well, but no luck. :(

    Vibrating Reboot? Any word on the "vibrating reboot"? I reboot the other night, set my phone down and left the room. When I came back, my phone had crawled off the nightstand and was hiding under the bed. :eek:

    Post [VS995 (VZW)][ROM + Kernel] NRD90M Modded NotSoStock ROM v5.5 1/1/2017

    I figured it was something like that. Unfortunately, I don't have a stock backup. I thought there might be something we could do with the update file that gets pulled down, but this is my first rooted LG device, so I haven't read much into the development process. Thanks for the explanation and...

    I was on the latest update for the LG V20 when DirtySanta came out, and had been running rooted since then without any obvious issues. After flashing this ROM, I kept getting prompted to update. I went ahead and froze the System Update apps with Titanium to stop the prompts, but I was curious -...

    Post DK S7 Edge/Note 5 INSTALL THREAD SMS/MMS working

    I'm guessing you figured it out by now, but it is normal. Installing any fresh new rom will typically take ~20 minutes to get past the initial screen on first boot.

    Post SD card trouble.

    The unlock process creates a large number of small partitions on the SD card. I was having trouble getting Windows disk management to open with the card inserted, so I used MiniTool Partition Wizard (free) to remove all partitions from the SD card and create a new single partition.
