I just got this model of V30+ but didn't know TMobile LTE would not work on it until after I paid. Just didn't read it good enough I guess.
Just wondering if I will still be able to get 4G Data on the phone using TMobile(mintsim) or at least HSPA+ or if its possible to make LTE work on it.
If you flash that to H930G, you'll get s few more U.S. carrier LTE bands. Not all but more.

Is this something that has been tested and working?
Yes, but let me find the post when I get home. Unless someone else finds it before me. It was someone who bought Hong Kong H930DS raspberry color and they wanted more US bands.

I haven't got then phone, it's for my friend in the US, she really wants the Raspberry Rose variant, and on Hong Kong firmware only 1/4 4G bands are supported, however if flashing the European firmware means she gets 3/4 bands that's a lot better and I can tell her she'll be okay to get it

Found the answer to this incase anyone ever needs the answer, flashing this firmware onto a H930DS also includes radio.img apparently, which means it will support the same bands that the H930 does :highfive:

Yea I have 2 Sims. Just got the mintsim prepaid for a year witch uses T-Mobile that I was going to use with my essential but that had a fried board in it I think. Artifacting and crashing constantly. Now I just plan to use both Sims in the dual SIM phone for some extra monthly data since I already have both prepaid service Sims.
So if I were to attempt to flash the euro Rom on my hk v30 would it just be a normal flashing process? Require boot loader unlocking? Is there any detailed outline of the process posted up?
alright thanks the information I read through a good deal of the thread at least to where they claimed it was adding support for more us bands.
One other question. After flashing this will I then still be able to receive ota updates and will it be safe to install them?
It's. A brand new phone I just don't want to take any unnecessary risks. But also of course want to be able to get full service. Don't want to have to sell it off to get another one or anything.
Thanks again.
You do not have to worry about Root or Bootloader unlock when flashing the EU-Oreo, it should be safe. I have my doubts with 4G on T-Mobile's bands though, read this thread first: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/help/lg-v30-unlocked-h930ds-doesnt-t-mobile-t3734810
One should note though that all comments were made prior to the possibility of flashing the EU-Oreo. I cannot test it with a T-Mobile SIM anymore (last post in this thread is from me) but my AT&T SIM gives me more 4G bands than it used to.
Ok I'm still waiting to receive the phone to test it myself. Obviously going to check it out stock first. According to the frequency check site it supports 2/5 bands for T-Mobile and metropcs. But doesn't support the protocol supposedly. I guess I'll see. I have both at&-t and T-Mobile Sims to test.

The frequency check site has been wrong before. I am not talking specifically about this situation. I've not investigated the H930DS and T-mobile, but in another thread about another V30 it was like they didn't even know the LTE bands AT&T currently uses. Seemed outdated information like, 4 years out of date.
Ok i got the phone today and only getting edge connection.
The phone i received is the india version h930ds. Will this make any difference when flashing the eu oreo firmware?
Also for flashing i am assuming i just need to download the eu open market firmware put the phone into download mode and load lgup via uppercut?
One other question does it matter if my phone is fully updated or not with the current india firmware?
Thanks.
Going to take me several hours to download on my internet connection so just waiting on it to finish now and trying to get as much information as possible in the meantime.

No, it doesn't matter which DS variant you are flashing from.
No, you don't need current India firmware since you'll be switching to Europe KDZ.
See the Euro KDZ thread for instructions.
Im sorry i don't see any flashing instructions. Just an outline of different methods such as uppercut or using model specific files or development lgup. Dont mean to be a pain just want to verify im doing everything right before i try. I did something like this on my g6 as well and the procedure was.
Put the into download mode
Launch lgup using uppercut
Select the kdz to flash
Not sure on this whether to set it to upgrade or refurbish? I think refurbish just wipes all user data like a factory reset?
Thanks.

Most people used upgrade. Try that first.
You can always reflash with refurbish if you don't like the result.

Yeah ok. Finally finished and flashed this morning. Made absolutely no difference and actually broke dual sim support for me.
Do i have any other options?

Okay first of all I am sorry if this is not the correct thread to be posting this question.
I have an At&t optimus g and I have been using it in Pakistan for quite some time now, and it worked flawlessly without any major problems. However, now in Canada the same phone doesnt receive network coverage and the service providor says that the connection fequency is not compatible with the phone.
Also, I rooted and bootloader unlocked my LGOG recently using FreeGee but ended up softbricking it, then later using teenybins I did recover it and flash the stock firmware. But I did not flash a baseband (dont know if i need to).
So, I think its either the baseband or radio (some regional problem) causing this problem but have no clue which one it actually is. Any help would be appreciated. Thankyou.
How did you unbrick it?

This is what I found out
The wind mobile network uses a frequency called AWS, with bands 1700/2100. The LGOG can support both these frequencies, i doubt it is a compatibility issue.
Or is it possible that currently it has no baseband whatsoever, and that i need to flash one? Really confused..

I used the e970 teenybin fix with tSilenzio's Automated LGNPST and the ls970 dll. However that did not cut it for me and I had to go ahead and use the "teenybin(AltBin)" which fortunately got me as far as the recovery. From there, obviously, I was able to flash roms.
Hope this helps.
Op, try flashing the stock att JB radio. If you were using it overseas then it's already unlocked, should work fine for 2g and 3g in Canada.

Hi Folks,
Just looking for a bit of advise. I have messed around with rooting and unlocking my phones in the past. I have always just followed guides here or youtube etc so not really having an clear understanding of the potential pitfalls.
I have imported an LG V10 from South Korea and overall am very happy with it. However for some reason it seems to be locked for international data roaming.
Can I get past this by flashing a UK or European firmware onto this phone when they become available ?
What device ID's or Radio's do I need to match etc or basically what do I need to watch out for. This phone can't go back to be repaired if I break it so want to make extra sure its worth it.
Thanks in advance for any help
Cheers
Chris

Ok so long story
I bought an imported LG600S from a guy on eBay who had imported it directly from South Korea I believe direct from SK Telecoms.*
This phone appears to be unlocked for any network here in the UK. *I am using a 3 Hutchison sim in it at the moment which I get calls and LTE speeds. *I have also tried a UK Vodafone sim in the phone and that works fine too.*
My problem appeared when I went to Paris France. My contract gives me unlimited data even when roaming abroad. *However in France the phone would not allow me to switch on data networks. It gave me the warning message which I have attached. *I click the accept tags but still the slider for data network was blocked (grayed out) with a message saying I needed to contact Mobile T Roaming and gave me a link to a South Korea customer service centre . *I tried to call it but obviously I don't speak Korean *
I have tried an unlocking service called unlockscope who gave me a number of codes for my IMEI number. *However none of these codes worked as the phone does not prompt you for an unlock code when you swap sims. *They also gave me a few number strings to put into the dialer to try and force it to ask for a code, however these didn't work either. As an aside the unlockscope company has offered me a full refund and we're very good at trying to trouble shooting my issue. *
So now I am a bit of a loss as to what to do next?*
I need international data roaming for work but can't figure out how to unbarr it except maybe for flashing a different *on the device firmware to get round the block.??*
All help gratefully recieved! **

1. download the kdz
2. use kdz tools to convert it dz format.
3. use lgup to flash (it will not say invalid kdz)
im here to ask something: if you can flash a H960(A) kdz on to F600(K,S,L)...the opposite can be done too without losing features? like put the firmware V30 Nougat in V20 European?
I dont care about FM Radio working or not, only want network and wifi working.

NO, not until it's placed on the LG Developer Bootloader Unlock list.
https://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev
Believe me, when it happens you won't have to ask. For one the TWRP thread won't say "for H930 only" and stuff like that. Or there will be another TWRP thread opened... I hope that doesn't happen, would be best to have one LG V30 TWRP.
Thank Chazz! I am on TMobile. Will I have to root to get all the bands eligible to be used? I don't want to lose volte and have worse coverage with this expensive phone than my old v30

If you mean LTE band 71, yeah. But should have all other bands already.
And band 71 by root is speculation based on a T-Mobile networking folder in the hidden menu files that can't be accessed without root. Or the ability to flash T-Mobile radio over the US998, again with root.
Neither are guaranteed until we try it, but devs are very creative.

All I can go by is the bootloader unlocked model V20 (late 2016) and G6 (mid 2017 by the time bootloader unlock came). The US997 LG G6 in particular has TWRP, root, ROMs. The only thing messed up is there are two versions of TWRP, one for the European and an "unofficial" for the US997. I hope that mistake is not made for the V30 US998.

I don't know if your carrier supports that on the H930. My first suggestions would be to reinstall the most recent H930 KDZ for your region. See if that works for you.

When you open the >firmware page< and select your region and then your firmware version, there is a short instruction.
Correction: I want to flash the U.S firmware (w/U.S lte bands) onto my international version. No PC access so I want to use KINGROOT!

If they differ in hardware, don't even try.
They are the same.
In general, US versions have support for different radio bands than the international versions. If you upload the US firmware to the international version, you may lose not only gsm radio support, but also WiFi.
Try looking for a method to activate the US band in the current firmware. This is the only safe method.
Once again thank you for the your help! But as you might know they're saying this phone will be no good after Verizon shuts down it's 3G.I already switched from AT&T to Verizon earlier this year. I was told I can just do what I was asking but if you know of any way possible I can save my phone? I know it needs band 14 for AT&T. I already did the apn thing but it's not enough. They still read it as 3G. This phone has extreme sentimental value to me.

Ask Verizon if you can use voWiFi with this phone.
Does anyone know how to activate the US bands within my current firmware?

It is impossible to make something out of nothing.
The equipment is incompatible and you already know that.
Thanks I really appreciate you!
