What version firmware are you all running on the S9+ T-Mobile version? I'm still on the Feb security patch and phone shows no updates available. Just making sure I'm not missing anything here.
ARC6 is the latest

Yep,
ARC6 with the March 1 security patch
Wonder If I disabled something via BK Disabler that's not allowing me to dowoad the updates....

No it's not updating my phone either, it just shows no update for me too. And I haven't disabled anything. So I don't know what's up with that
Same here
Wondering if they pulled the update
Running the same ARBG build here, too.

Same here. New s9 plus just bought yesterday. I just checked no updates available. Wonder if they pulled it.
Hopefully the removal of the update has something to do with the v2 bootloader. When you update to ARC6, you can't go backwards from that point, or at least currently. The v1 bootloader in ARBG is a lot more flashing friendly.

Unfortunately, this doesn't matter in my case as I have the Snapdragon variant. Jailbreaking Apple devices is easier than dealing with Samsung's BS these days; however, I couldn't give up the ability to expand storage with an SD card.
I've been hearing a lot of people complaining about dropped calls on the ARC6 update. I never experienced it myself while on ARC6 but I'm on ARDA now.

Mine is a SnapDragon model also. Although based on older information and models. I am hoping we get a V3 bootloader for those who are stuck on v3 that can be upgrade and then downgraded. The Note 8 bootloader is possible to flash backwards for some reason. Because we are on the 845 though, it will probably take a little time for someone to figure out who to get it to successfully flash backward. The call dropping issue on some firmware versions also is a problem that doesn't exist on other firmware variants. I had the call dropping on 1ARC6 but not on 1ARBG. That might have slipped into the firmware with the v2 bootloader. Whatever the reason, the Samsung community has a lot of development and cross-flashing activity that will hopefully get this figured out soon.
I came from a V30, which is much more of a mess to even attempt to flash anything other than what the current firmware is could potentially leave you hard bricked. Outside of Nexus and Pixel devices, I find Samsung in its current state more cross-flashing and mod friendly than some other manufactures. I have never used an Apple device to know how easy or difficult they are to jailbreak or what that means in comparison to what we do with modded, bootloader unlocked, and cross-flashing devices on the Android side. The locked down Apple ecosystem will always keep me away from their platform.

Hello dear users and developers of firmware for the device LG V30+
Today I became the owner of LG v30+ 4/128 (H930DS), currently it has a software version installed: Android 7.1.2, Kernel version 4.4.63, Software version V10d-IND-XX (I don’t quite understand what the last meaning means)
I respect all developers of firmware for this device, but I want to ask which firmware is more stable (where both camera modules work well and there is support for the built-in analog digital converter) and has more functions in terms of interface customization? Interested in Android version 8 and 9.
Thank you for paying attention to this thread. :fingers-crossed:

V10d-IND-XX
"10" means Nougat
20 would be Oreo.
Your best bet right now is to update to early Oreo (pre-July 2018) to unlock bootloader, install TWRP and root. Then update to current rooted Oreo firmware.
Everything will work, and you can flash Magisk modules to get some custom stuff.

Tell me please, do I understand you well? Do you offer to upgrade to the Oreo version, install twrp and root on your smartphone and stay on the original LG Oreo firmware?
There are several nuances that I forgot to clarify. It is desirable that the firmware was without GApps, from Google services I use only a translator. (I have not used GApps for more than two years)

Stock firmware doesn't use GAPPS.
Yes, stay on Oreo stock firmware, but unlock bootloader, install TWRP. After that, there's an updated stock OREO H930DS TWRP-flashable zip you can flash to update to latest Oreo.

Stock firmware uses gapps, otherwise you wouldnt have any play services on the phone when you buy it
And how much of the gapps are used depends on how much google makes the manufacturers install, changes every now and then.

OK to clarify, you don't install AOSP GAPPS package with stock firmware.

Does the standard firmware already have GApps? I would not want to have a GApps core in a smartphone.
Even if we take into account the smallest NANO package, then it has the following components and telemetry as a gift.
Device Health Services
Google App (Search)
Google Package Installer (replaces stock / AOSP Package Installer)
Google Play services
I would like a clean firmware without any trace of google. What can you recommend?

You don't need "GAPPs" on stock. The firmware has what it needs already.
You are complicating the requirements if you now also want no Google. You wanted no bugs.
Tell you what. Unlock the bootloader, install TWRP and root, and update to latest firmware. After that, you're on your own.
You can install whatever custom ROM you want, but there's none with no bugs at this point in time.

I apologize for the concern, I am very grateful for your help. But I still do not understand. Is Android upgraded from the air with the Nougat 7.1.2 V10d-IND-XX version to V10e-JAN-23-2018 version? (This is exactly what my smartphone is now offering, as it writes on the display of the device)
In your "WTF" thread, I read about my device:
US998 Oreo, European H930 Oreo, H930DS Oreo, and open market V30S Oreo have the fastboot flash commands and boot loader unlock flaw. (With pre-July 2018 security patch firmware; don't worry, we can get you there.) At present, if you have post-July Android security patch, you can downgrade to unlock your bootloader.
* India H930DS would use the IND H930DS Oreo KDZ. which has India-specific VoLTE for carriers like Jio -- with pre-July 2018 security patch firmware

Please do not mention any "10" (Nougat) firmware you are seeing. I've told you 3 times now that's old, outdated. You need "20" Oreo, but to UNlock bootloader you need specific version of Oreo before then updating to current Oreo. It will have a 20. Like 20A.
Updating from old version of Nougat to slightly less old version of Nougat does no good. You can NOT unlock H930DS bootloader on Nougat. You need to jump to specific version of Oreo.

You can use any region H930 or H930DS firmware you wish.
The only exception is for India H930DS for those that need India carrier Jio VoLTE.
I assumed you needed India firmware because that's what you have right now. But you can cross flash to Europe H930 if you wish.
In my WTF INSTRUCTIONS I even give a link to European H930DS OREO KDZ firmware. You can use that, if you wish.
You need to print it those instructions and read them several times.

Congratulations! You successfully updated to Oreo and followed the WTF instructions to it install TWRP and root.
What version firmware are you on now? Are you on H930DS or H930 firmware? If H930DS, which one? CIS?
Did you update to newer firmware after the bootloader unlock TWRP and root stage? LG improved the camera more with latest Oreo updates.
I have Settings screenshot suggestions with Google Photos link in that thread and my KDZ threads. Everyone has their own preferences, but there's so many deep (almost hidden) menus on this device it's easy to overlook some useful toggle (like the lock screen weather animations). And with root, I've been able to enable them all -- not just the two LG has as default.
I've also enabled call recorder and installed some other mods. I also use this one, but may not be compatible with your H930DS/H930.

I don't know the answer to that. I know there are AOSP custom ROMs which can be used without GAPPs and you can install MicroG. The problem until recently with the custom ROMs for the V30 (I said recently) has been replicating various functionality of stock firmware as well as stock firmware. VoLTE, quad DAC (with digital filters), cameras, Always On Display, brightness controls on display, no audio on apps like WhatsApp. A lot of that has been fixed or improved considerably and is still under constant development -- but the title of this thread is "best custom firmware without bugs"... At this point in time I'm not sure that exists, but may in the near future.
For me, I'm running rooted stock firmware with various mods and you can also debloat stuff like the social media apps you do not use. There are threads around about what is "safe" to remove and what isn't. The problem is you besides "no bugs", then you threw in additional "no Google" requirment.
So, run most recent rooted stock firmware for awhile just so you know how it feels. Flash some mods so you can get some customization. THAT will be your baseline. THEN, after making good TWRP backup, you can try experimenting with some of the AOSP ROMs with microG. Good luck.

I apologize for the wording “completely without errors”, I meant without critical errors, such as spontaneous reboot, camera drop after one shot or during video recording, constant disconnection from Wi-Fi. With the wording "without errors", which I had in mind the most common critical errors. I went through all these errors on the zuk z1 device, but today the camera and stabilization, calls, sounds and other functions work perfectly for him, the only thing that did not suit me in this device was 64 GB of memory without the possibility of expanding the microsd card and processor the old x32 architecture and the inefficient Adreno 330 graphics core without Open GL 3.2 support
Now the firmware H930DS20c_00_OPEN_CIS_DS_OP_0419 is installed on my device, in the item “Check for updates” it is written that today I have the latest software version, but I suspect that I don’t know the forum and the updates don’t come because the bootloader is unlocked,
First, I will try to update the firmware to the latest version (if I find how to do it) and remove all unnecessary programs, if nothing good comes of it, then most likely I will install AIS firmware (recommended on another forum with a link to the xda forum )
Tell me, now with the help of root and twrp I can make a full backup of the firmware data H930DS20c_00_OPEN_CIS_DS_OP_0419, and then I can restore it through the same twrp?

The way you would flash it is via LGUP, but UNcheck "recovery" partitions to keep TWRP custom recovery. Then you would boot to TWRP and re-flash the no encryption, no root checker files and Magisk again. It's somewhat a pain, which is why people like to flash the TWRP-flashable zip versions when available.

Reboot into TWRP using the app shortcut I suggested in the WTF thread and go to backup and make a backup. If you use internal memory it's FAST to make backup, but probably also want to use microSD card (much slower) storage so that if you completely wipe your phone you have that backup in a safe place. When you go to restore you will navigate to the place you stored it on your phone.

Fortunately all of the Google related apps can be disabled in the settings on the stock ROM (US998). I'm running stock non-rooted and Google-less with amazing battery life. If you are rooted then you can even use Titanium Backup to freeze anything Google.

Is it possible to give this feature to all v30 models in android pie?
We already have it now in Oreo:
Fully enable DTS 3D stereo (root needed)
For all models, with most recent Oreo software. Been rolling out since December 2018 and now all models that have the updated firmware have the DTS framework. Yes, you need root, but all V30/V30+/V30S can be rooted.
Can you clarify your question?

LG must be putting the framework (libs) into the V30 for a reason... I would expect in some future update they will enable it for unrooted, stock firmware. But we have no guarantee.
I am new to rooting phone from what it seems this phone has not been successfully rooted. I would love to chat with someone who is working at this or has achieved this task.
Still waiting to find a way to bootloader unlock.
Any news about Firehose leak ?
I've been pretty busy working on patching LGUP for the sake of the Stylo 6 root and carrier unlocking, but, after that's done, I planned on moving on to the V60.
Patched LGUP should allow for quite a few things. It's a big assignment and is thus taking some time, but should get done, and will unlock a lot. Menu options (possibly including a mysterious "TOT Build" function I haven't looked into yet), OPID mismatch error voidance to flash over new carriers/unlock the carrier, the possibility of disabling the ARB check (obviously this poses concerns for accidental bricking i.e "possibility of") and some other more subtle changes. I might also redo the UI for fun...that's not a priority though. If anyone by chance wants to help with that so that I could get moving forward on the V60 much faster than is projected at the moment, then here's a link to my discord server where development is focused and a link to the thread that spawned it. I can't balance both projects at once, as I also have work and life happening around me.
I haven't looked everywhere for the V60 engineering boot or firehose or whatever just yet (I haven't familiarized myself with that much yet either) but I did poke around for a bit when I got curious and nothing turned up. I'll do more in depth stuff when the time comes, but for now I'm occupied.
Either way, I'll get around to taking a look at the V60 at some point. In the mean time, if I come across something that might help people out here, I'll go ahead and post it here, or make a new forum post depending on its relevancy.
Good luck, everyone!

I haven't looked everywhere for the V60 engineering boot or firehose or whatever just yet (I haven't familiarized myself with that much yet either) but I did poke around for a bit when I got curious and nothing turned up. I'll do more in depth stuff when the time comes, but for now I'm occupied.
Either way, I'll get around to taking a look at the V60 at some point. In the mean time, if I come across something that might help people out here, I'll go ahead and post it here, or make a new forum post depending on its relevancy.
Good luck, everyone!

Bricking will not be a risk if you have a firehose programmer

I'm so confused, people keep saying that there is no root for a V60 and bootloader can't be unlocked. I'm looking at a bootloader option on my phone as I type here and here is a link to the rooting v60 article.
How to Root LG V60 ThinQ and Unlock Bootloader (Guide) (ytechb.com)
I guess I should try it to see if it works but statements like above are confusing to me.

That would work if you had a European version of the v60. Beside that, there are no custom roms/kernel/radio for the v60...
waiting for the prog_ufs_firehose_sm8250_lge.elf to show up and a modded abl_a.bin
Can't wait for this to be available for US. I have been really wanting this beast of a phone to use for pen testing etc

Hello
I have a LMV600EA with V600EA10o_00_1118 firmware. Today I managed to extract the boot.img and patch it with Magisk. I now have a working rooted LG V60. Attached is the Magisk patched boot file for the firmware V600EA10o_00_1118.

Could you by chance upload a dump of your device partitions? Specifically, the boot img and perhaps your laf images? Everything in total would be really great, but I want to see if flashing the European bootloader over the USA variant is at all a good idea... perhaps we can shove the European bootloader into the USA variant and unlock that way?
Also, are you able to find your unlock.bin that LG sent you? Could you post that, too, for analysis?
I'm very curious.

Sadly no way to use given Magisk won't let me do anything right now beyond just patching the image that I pulled from the KDZ. Hopefully soon-ish we'll be able to root (and maybe bootloader unlock) this beast then really push the V60 to it's real potential.

so for now is only Boot.img patched and can it be used to root permissions the T-mobile variant and we must to wait for unlock bootloader?

Sadly we can't even get root permissions until we get the bootloader unlocked on the T-Mobile V60 unless if some other method is found.

I'm so sorry, I probably should have clarified, do you by chance have the unpatched version you could upload as well? I'd love to take a look at it and see what we can do with it, if anything, since LG likes to make their files very, very obscure and difficult to work with.
I can also, to an extent, dump some of the rootfs of the Stylo 6 but I'm yet to try it with the V60. My time here is limited until I can get the Stylo 6 done with, but assuming we finish everything we're working on, we'll have a patched LGUP 2.x dll (I can never remember the actual full version) with a patched LGUP 1.16 exe that should allow for crossflashing and dumping devices, and hopefully some other goodies among that and it should totally help jumpstart a lot of development for the V60 as well as most if not all other LG modern devices.
Hopefully!
