I've seen many threads about this issue originating because the apparent H900 model for some people turned out to be a different model somehow converted to look like this, and everyone had the exact same issues as me, namely
1. LG VPN has stopped working error
2. Fingerprint/security tab causes settings to crash
3. Attempting to uninstall apps causes instant soft reboot
Some folks mentioned fixing their phones by finding the actual model of their phone and flashing the correct firmware. But AFAIK, no flashing software allows flashing of a different model. And none of them was clear about the actual steps they did to fix it.
Since I'm on Marshmallow, I cannot root, and I cannot rollback to the firmware I had in my phone.
Can anyone please share how they fixed their phone or someone expert in the matter?
Warranty/Motherboard replacement are out of question for me.
Any help is appreciated.
Same here please somebody help.
Same, did you find a solution? :/
same problems
Same probleme... Any update for this?
I see on AT&T website they have been rolling out the software update ver. H900z in USA only?
So we out side USA cant get OTA update?
There some one can give the backup rom?
LIKELY NO CAN'T HELP US ON LG V10 H900W AT&T:crying::crying::crying:

you can't get ota att outside USA becasue you need to be connected in ATT bridge or IDK but you can't the only way you can by KDZ or TOT FILES
Finally Found 1000% fix for all this type of issues. Security Menu to App Uninstall all-everything OK. Just need to flash an special modified firmware based on VS990 Hardware. The current Firmware version is Android 6.0.
NB: This is not for free and not for individual one. $150 will cost this type of firmware. So, this solution is for Service Personnel or Professional's only. Contact me for details on Skype or Gmail (rassel2k). Goodluck.
Too bad the price of the phone itself, 2nd hand (H900,H901,VS990,F600), is around $100 here.
I managed to get VoLTE working on the xz2cd (H8324) with T-Mobile USA using the xz3 (H8416) USA firmware oem-*.sin files.
Thank you to all the others that figured out the process details so all I had to do was try every combination - see the other VoLTE threads in this forum to guide you on the actual steps. Also thanks to Androxyde and Igoreisberg for the flash & download tools!
I have this working with the H8324_Customized NOBA_1313-6167_52.0.A.8.25_R5B firmware, I happen to choose, replacing only the oem-*.sin files from the XZ3 H8416_Customized US_1316-4522_52.0.A.8.25_R10B firmware. When you set both lines to "LTE (preferred)" and you'll be able to make LTE calls on both lines, however it may only show [HD] calling on the line you configured last I think but it'll be VoLTE on both.
Enjoy and thanks again to all the other threads that guided me through this long but worthwhile trial process. I wish the carriers didn't make LTE VoLTE provisioning difficult, why didn't they just make it universal like 3G.
Note: I was able to separately get Wifi-Calling to appear using the H8276_Freedom CA_1313-8876_52.0.A.8.25_R3B oem-*.sin files but it wasn't functional on T-Mobile USA - I think someone with a little bit more knowledge might be able to get this to work, unless you can point me in the right direction.
Someone please make an open firmware thin/light/compact dual SIM phone with Wifi-Calling/VoLTE (removable battery a bonus)!
Do you think the files would be the same on the H8314 US edition? i'm assuming you need to be rooted for this to work?
Hey Mike, Can you please share(download link) OEM*.sin files of USA firmware for Volte Settings
Im wondering if we can flash the OEM files from the US XZ1 Compact to get T-Mobile VOLTE and Wifi calling? I would try it myself but I cant find one of these phones at a reasonable price. If I do I will try and report back if anyone cares. I am glad at least VOLTE seems to work with this workaround.
VoLTE provisioned on XZ2 but calls are still made over 3G
I’ve done the same for my XZ2 (not compact, H8266). The VoLTE button is now active, but calls are still making over 3G. Any suggestion?
I just talked to a T-mobile specialist, and he confirmed that my phone should work and no need to register or do anything if it supports all bands!!! As he told me "only check for compatibility" and mine is compatible! ?
Were you ever able to get this working? New XZ2 owner and of course I bought this within a week is the announcement about all non VoLTE devices being kicked off in January..
Is there anyway to get volte working for tmobile on the h8314?

Yes VoLTE works but no VoWIFI with the following method:
Download USA Customized for XZ2C (H8314) and use only the two oem...sin files from XZ3 (H8416) USA Customized. (overwrite the two files in the XZ2C stack)
Use newflasher tool. (I deleted all .ta files and userdata file to avoid losing existing data)
To put the phone into flash mode, power off, hold the vol down button and plug in your usb cable while holding the button until you get a dim green light.
The device will show up in device manager under USB and you can run newflasher as administrator. Please search for a tutorial - there are many that are very good with screenshots of the files you want to move into the newflasher folder.
Some hangups I ran into when setting up and flashing -
Installing flashtool drivers required disabling driver signature enforcement on win10 (Flash device did not show up in usb in device manager until this was done)
For safety, after the flashtool driver install, I performed a repair on xperia companion app in case of any driver conflicts.
Running newflasher again, I got an error: Unable to open ./boot/Apollo_XBootConfig_MiscTA.ta! after multiple system files had been flashed.
But not to worry, the command window said the phone exited flash mode, but got error 933 - unable to sync. - No worries though, just make sure the command window states the phone is out of flash mode somewhere, disconnect your cable and power up your phone.
Then you will get an android message saying your carrier settings will update after reboot and the phone may reboot.
Once rebooted, enter *#*#4636#*#* in your phone dialer app (Takes 30 seconds after fresh boot for the menu to come up) , select phone information, and select LTE only (Note: VoLTE Provisioned will have the slider set to the right, but grayed out - Before the re-flash, the slider was set to the left and grayed out), reboot again. (If you click the 3 dots and look at IMS Status, you will see IMS status Registered, VoLTE Available and UT interface Available - Before the re-flash status was not registered and not available)
Now when you make a call, it will say "HD" in your dialer while on a call and your signal indicator will no longer say 3G when calling.
VoWIFI does not work, but you can use whatapp or something else like googleFi if its a must have, but in my case, I did not want to have to buy a new phone in January when they turn off 3G - Phones are too darn big now anyways and I love the display on this phone.
Notices will go out starting AUG 4th if your phone is marked as not supported using T-Mobile IMEI BYOD online tool - Their tool said my phone does not support VoLTE (Not fully true - It just does not have Band 71 for Long Range VoLTE but will use Band 4(66) just fine, I cannot confirm band 12 even though the phone spec supports it. It appears only Short range VoLTE is working on the phone unless someone else can confirm with this method, My Band 12 tower is behind a hill and i am 20 miles from it) T-mobile currently does not have a whitelist like AT&T, so If the UE (User Equipment - ie. phone) is configured properly, the network will handle the rest. I hope this practice does not change.
The advantage to using this method, is you are using completely stock USA files - My bootloader is locked and i am not rooted BTW. My XZ2C is only carrier unlocked.
The build number of both Roms I used was the same 52.1.A.3.49 XXX - Good Luck.
BTW - Some people were asking what modem config is working with VoLTE on T-mobile USA - to get the modem setting type *#*#7378423#*#* and in the service menu select software info, under Current modem config the value reads:
row/tmobile/vl/us
XZ1 oem files on XZ2 for VOLTE and VOWIFI calls.

You will need to try this. I was not so brave. The reason is the difference in the build IDs and oem.sin file names between the XZ1 (Old) and XZ2 (Current as of July USA Customized builds).
Mixing and matching files is easier when you are doing so off the same build ID. Thats why V0LTE worked on my XZ2 using XZ3 oem.sin files, they were from the same build ID and had the same names even though the sizes were slightly different.
It may work if the format of the oem.sin file did not change between the XZ1 builds and XZ2 Builds. The more different the builds, the higher the risk of something going wrong.

I made the mistake of calling sony and t-mobile for support and they both kept blaming each other, the reason they don't know why VoLTE does not work on some phones is they really don't know enough about their network or the basebands in the phone or the software build process and details about android sin files - as they should not either cause if the network engineers, device manufacturers and software developers all do their job and stick to industry standard practices, it will just work anyway.

I dont have direct links, but here is an excellent walkthrough that calls out all the tools -
https://www.xperiablog.net/2018/01/...-firmware-for-xperia-xz-premium-xz1-and-more/
Search for flashtool on XDA there should be links for that, but you only install the drivers from it, not the tool.
You also need the xperia companion software download from sony website for any missing drivers from flashtool.
Search XDA for newflasher, thats what you will actually flash with - https://forum.xda-developers.com/cr...gress-newflasher-xperia-command-line-t3619426
the firmware download utility is xperifirm software - https://forum.xda-developers.com/cr...xperifirm-xperia-firmware-downloader-t2834142

It's been a while but wanted to thank you for taking the time to write out these steps. I finally took a shot with the incoming shutdown of 3g for my XZ2, but unfortunately it did not work. Similar to what gigili said, while VoLTE appears to be provisioned the calls are dropping to 3g/HSPA like they originally were. After setting to "LTE Preferred" and rebooting, calls would not be made at all. I also saw "Unknown" under the Modem Config, and from what you said it should reference T-Mobile after flashing the OEM sin files.
I tried this using the latest firmware available on XperiFirm for the XZ2 (Customized US H8266 - my device is H8276) and the XZ3, which I used to grab the two OEM sin files. The firmware is 52.1.A.3.137.
Using UnSin, I unpacked both "oem_X-FLASH-CUST-B6B5.sin" files in both firmwares, and under modem-config there are a bunch of folders, and each one seems to have a conf files pointing to "mcfg_sw/generic/row/tmobile/vl/us/mcfg_sw.mbn."
I read in another thread that T-Mobile maybe has some way of blocking this workaround now, but I'm not entirely sure if that is true? Totally understand if you've moved on from the device as it's been a while, but am admittedly curious if there's a specific firmware version that this works on I could try to salvage the device.

I am working to bring support for T-Mobile VoLTE on the xz2c to LineageOS 18.1. As of this writing, official LineageOS builds for this device do not support VoLTE unless it was already enabled and working in the stock firmware.
I have submitted some patches which may resolve the issue for TMO and probably other carriers as well. They work for me, but testing has been limited. If you are interested in using LineageOS instead of the stock ROM, and you are willing and able to build LOS yourself on linux, consider giving my patchset a try. Please read the patch description fully before attempting a build: you will need to obtain and mount some additional files first. The LineageOS wiki has additional instructions for creating a build environment.
EDIT: My patch is part of official LOS 18.1 starting with nightly 20220401. There is no need to build it yourself.

You are a saint for working on this. I bought a H8324 XZ2c recently and was super disappointed it didn't work, so I am back to my XZ1c. Super frustrated. If you ever get a pre-compiled ROM, I would love to try. In the meantime I will try to compile it myself in the coming days despite my technical illiteracy.
If that doesn't end up working, what stock firmware is available with T-Mobile VoLTE enabled and working, so I could step up from that to Lineage? Considering how old the other solutions for trying to get VoLTE working, I am hesitant to try any especially funny business of switching old firmware files from other phones around.

As far as I am aware there isn't any stock firmware that works "out of the box." The xz2c is listed as "unsupported" by t-mobile, which probably means there isn't any sort of stock ROM out there that works. Sometimes carriers do release "branded" ROMs, but there's nothing like that for this device AFAIK.
LinageOS is designed to be installed "on top" of an existing stock ROM. If you attempt to install it after you have flashed another distro (like an AOSP build), you will likely just make a brick. If you do end up bricking your device, do not despair. You can use Emma to restore your device to factory condition. Emma is available on the Sony Developer World website, and there are many guides available for it.
Have bought several "refurbished"LG phones from Aliexpress over the years and apart from a G3 have had no problems when flashing/updating firmware by ota,lgup or lg Bridge. At the moment have v500n20x firmware and if i check for updates in settings am told " using latest software version". Lg Bridge tells me v500n20z is available to update and I checked and there is a v500n20z kdz out there. So has anyone successfully updated these ways? Also would not having 20z firmware stop phone from ever updating to Android 11. Am sure years ago i updated G3 using LG Bridge and all seemed ok until i realized no mobile network coverage. Apparently seller must of modified/flashed modem that worked in my country and update put it back to stock. The V50 v500n all checks out in Aida64,CPUZ and imei checker as genuine but thinking of it now ,if i was going to update would LGUP(Uppercut?) be the the safer option baring in mind it's a "refurbished" Aliexpress LgV50

My Korean version LG V500N has already updated to android 11 just one week ago, my device is with "KT mobile" vendor but I'm using it with Telcel and Movistar providers in Mexico without problems, well except OTG connection, my device is unable to use OTG, no matter how many times I connect via OTG and select file transfer in USB mode it stops connection to reconnect after just a second again in power supply mode
(WIP, files are currently processing and uploading)
For those who aren't already aware, F711U is the model number of all of the US carrier versions of the Z Flip3. The F711U1 is the model number of the same device, but sold by Samsung SIM unlocked and with no carrier bloatware. Firmware is 100% interchangeable among these models: any U or U1 firmware version can be flashed to any U or U1 device at any time, assuming that you're not trying to downgrade the bootloader. A "U to U" or "U1 to U1" flash does not require a factory reset, but changing from one firmware to the other will require one. Also, U firmware is identical for the 4 base files (AP, BL, CP, CSC) for each individual build, no matter which carrier it comes from. So if you download 2 different carrier versions of the exact same build, the 4 base files will be identical. Where the firmware differs is in the USERDATA file - that's where the carrier bloatware and customizations reside.
Manual Odin flashing is designed for those who:
- want to manually update to a newer version of U firmware on their U device, either because they don't want to wait for their carrier's OTA or because OTAs aren't working on their device, or a different carrier got a new feature/patch before they did
- want to flash U1 firmware to their U device
- want to convert from U1 firmware to carrier U firmware
- want to convert from one carrier's U firmware (with all apps and bloatware) to a different carrier's U firmware (with all apps and bloatware)
For those who aren't already aware, anyone can now download firmware for almost any Samsung device any time that they want, via the various firmware download tools posted here on XDA like SamFirm or Frija. There are threads and info about them here on XDA so I won't waste time explaining - do a search if you're not already familiar with these tools. But they only provide whatever the latest/newest/current version is - nothing older. I have access to an internal Samsung firmware download tool that usually gets new versions before they hit the public firmware download tools, so that's where my files come from.
This is not a "beginner's guide to Odin flashing" -type post/thread, so I won't list basic, step-by-step flashing instructions. My threads are geared towards those who already know what they're doing. If you're new to manually flashing Samsung firmware (or haven't done it in a long time), I recommend you consult one of those "beginner's" guides- there are tons of them here on XDA.
Happy flashing!

Notes:
- DON'T QUOTE THE OP WHEN YOU REPLY, kthx
- I have lots of threads just like this one for other Samsung flagships, if it interests you. For those who have already made use of my previous threads for a different device and are upgrading, welcome back
- My zips are compressed extra small for space and bandwidth savings. The default Windows extractor can't handle it, so you'll need a 3rd party tool like 7zip, WinRAR, etc
- it's quite time consuming to download the files, zip them up, and upload them to AFH. And, I do threads like this for every single flagship model, so I won't be uploading every single version. The only full builds that I upload are ones where I get access to a new bootloader and/or Android version early, before they hit the firmware download tools.
- My naming method for folders on AFH is: build - bootloader - Android version
So "SAT - 1 - 9.0" means the full build number ends in SAT, it's bootloader version 1, and it's Android 9.0. When bootloader and Android versions increment, the first build to have those changes will have its folder notated appropriately.
- HOME CSC file keeps data intact; using the other CSC will wipe data. Flashing USERDATA will also wipe data.
- Since AT&T doesn't allow their firmware to be publicly available (for any of their devices), I'll try to always upload at least one USERDATA per bootloader increment for AT&T (and Cricket, if they get this model). I'll also upload any full builds if AT&T is the only carrier to get that specific build, because you won't be able to find the files anywhere else.
- For identifying USERDATAS, and to know what region/CSC to use in the firmware download tools if you're downloading yourself:
AIO = Cricket (not available via firmware download tools)
ATT = AT&T (not available via firmware download tools)
BST = Boost Mobile
CCT = Xfinity Mobile (Comcast)
CHA = Spectrum Mobile (Charter)
DSH = Dish Network
TMB = T-Mobile
TMK = Metro PCS
USC = US Cellular
VZW = Verizon (available via firmware download tools, but Manual Entry is required - Auto will not work)
XAA = U1 firmware
Flashed a physical T-Mobile F711U to a F711U1 XAA firmware using Odin(Can't stand the bright pink boot up animations).
Flash worked perfectly. But, when I tried to test doing an update from Google settings it failed every time with "Registration Failed". I flashed the device back to the T-Mobile F711U firmware and was able to update without issue.
Not sure if you ran into this issue, but it's worth noting you might not be able to update the phone if the carriers are checking the Firmware.
Edit: Also forgot to mention, had to use the patched Odin due to the Firmware Model mismatch. Phone does work properly though.

I get "Connecting to server" and then immediately "Registration Failed" I've attempted over Wi-Fi and with that option toggled off.
This could also be the phone is new and T-Mobile doesn't have the F711U1 XAA firmware at their carrier level, but the registration failed annoys me. On F711U (official T-Mobile firmware) I simply get a notification that the device is up to date.

I flashed my phone using the F711U1OYM1AUG7 (F711U1 XAA) firmware from sammobile.
I flashed it back to the T-Mobile firmware, (F711UOYN1AUGB (F711U TMB) and the issue went away.
I did flash it again to the XAA to confirm the problem this evening. Never retained data during the process. Factory reset and removed my account information (Google and Samsung) before updating the firmware each time.
I've done this on a few phones in the past. If I'm making a blunder in the process causing this then I'm truly sorry for wasting anyone's time.

I flashed my phone using the F711U1OYM1AUG7 (F711U1 XAA) firmware from sammobile.
I flashed it back to the T-Mobile firmware, (F711UOYN1AUGB (F711U TMB) and the issue went away.
I did flash it again to the XAA to confirm the problem this evening. Never retained data during the process. Factory reset and removed my account information (Google and Samsung) before updating the firmware each time.
I've done this on a few phones in the past. If I'm making a blunder in the process causing this then I'm truly sorry for wasting anyone's time.

Well UG7 is the latest that's available. So yes, I would expect you to get an error.
Once an update is available, if the phone is still giving the same error, then you can worry about it
Hello, well from my understanding Xfinity is bootloader unlockable after 60days and fully played for. I am wondering if anyone is planning on making a thread for Xfinity specifically. Or want too work with me on One. Sorry too spam or thread. But if u are familiar with how rom building, and flashing was with any other recent samsung model/Xfinity/bootloader unlock. It would be highly appreciated too know your experience.

Incorrect. No US models of any Samsung device have been user-unlockable for years now, dating back to the S7

I think network unlock got mixed up with bootloader unlock. You can unlock the phones for use with another carrier after X days and completed payment.

Well normally I would say that you can get it yourself from the various firmware download tools like SamFirm or Frija. But it looks like Samsung changed something over the weekend, as the current versions of the tools are failing to pull any firmware
So I can grab it for you

1. Thom Browne *is* U1 firmware
2. USERDATA belongs to U firmware, not U1. So I have absolutely no idea. You'll have to try it and see what happens
Have successfully flashed F711U1 to F711W. Everything working fine. Used Odin 3.14, CSC_OMC_OYV, and working on Telus with all available features working.
Please note that AFTER the flash, you will be prompted to reset the device to stock. Reason being is that it needs to install the appropriate CSC linked to the inserted SIM card.
Can anyone confirm if cross flashing different build firmwares that it will unlock the unlock bootloader option?
Currently on carrier firmware for TMobile and I'm wondering if this is possible or if the u1 firmware has the unlock bootloader option available
Hi there,
Yesterday I bought a retail unit LG G7 from eBay. I removed retail mode from the phone quite quick but it wouldn't charge up to 100%, storage was almost full, you know the drill so I spent a good 4 hours yesterday trying to flash stock firmware on it.
I tried 5 different KDZs (Korea and USA both Android 8, 9 and 10) and while they all flash with no errors, Wi-Fi doesn't work on any of them and I can't finish the initial setup.
I pick my language, I pick the notch for the second screen and when I get to "Set Internet Connection" I have 'Mobile Network', I tried a SIM already, I don't think this demo unit has LTE and Wi-Fi is greyed out or it tells me "Wi-Fi connection is not ready, please try again in a few minutes".
And sooner or later the phone restarts and wipes itself again.
LGUP tells me it's model g710v10a
Oh and I used this method to flash the firmware: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...g7-g7-dual-sim-thinq-except-t-mobile.3915303/
Can someone please point me in the right direction? TIA
Demo model should never be crossflashed as its not compatible with other model's fw. You can flash the firmware dump in qfil for demo model https://mega.nz/file/LokAEKZC#tADaJa0jwdWq6QByg_qsLEZTen_-_zqJXxG-sZEsuFI and restore to that fw again, you can remove demo thingy if you follow this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/lm-g710v-the-lg-g7-thinq-retail-mode-demo-mode-thread.3910502/ related to demo model. What i recommend you is to buy a broken display g7 or the motherboard of it and replace it so you have a normal phone.
