If I recall correctly you made a thread then locked it until the kdz is out, but can't find it, is that thread going to have the TWRP version when it becomes available?

Yes. KDZ thread is unlocked and live:

But dev JohnFawkes will have to download the KDZ and create TWRP-flashable zip in his spare time. May take a few days. He's a busy person!

Awesome! Thanks I was just asking so I knew where to check, I couldn't find that thread.

Anybody know the answer to this. If I have a converted LS998 and changed to US998, no magisk, no TWRP, but bootloader unlocked, can I take OTA? Will I get OTA?
Thanks

You probably won't get OTA. It depends on IMEI, I've read.

I saw this update is from US cellular and supports band 66. Does it also support volte and wifi calling?

Comprehensive ADB guide?

Is there one? I don't want to do anything too crazy, I just want to use the ADB to update my LG V30 since it's not updating properly.

You don't need ADB to update your phone. You just need patched LGUP.
How would you update with ADB?
What variant do you have?

See the LGUP files attached to post #1, and the explanation:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/development/us998-lg-v30-us998-us99820a040330-kdz-t3786337
What variant do you have? If the AT&T H931, it doesn't have a publicly released KDZ, so you would have to convert it to something like US998 or AS998.
If another variant, there's compatible Oreo KDZ for most. What do you have?

Change operating/software system on LG V30

I would like to know if there is a way to change/remove the current software on my LG V30. It is software version US99810c and I would like to have the Verizon version of software instead of the one that is currently installed. Is there a way to change this?

Yes, see the Frankenstein thread. You can convert any North American V30 to any other, except for T-mobile H932. Yes, the instructions are written to convert to US998 (as that's the most popular), but you can do it the other way around also.
You can convert US998 to Verizon VS996.
Another way of doing it is to ROOT the US998 and then flash the most recent VS996 stock firmware "ROM" via TWRP. That also converts to VS996.

Thank you very much for the fast reply. I do have one more questions (I hope not to stupid), how do I get to that thread. If you have time would you please paste the link. Thanks again, Greg

Possibly you can go straight from US998 10C (Nougat) to latest Oreo VS996.

Use the WTF INSTRUCTIONS for Bootloader unlock, install TWRP and root.
During that process you will also convert your LS998/AS998 to US998.

V30 wifi calling.

Hi
I have an h930 European version, bought it as unlocked and i dont have the option to turn on the wifi calling or volte, im using Three but they will stop the three in touch app on the 15th so its kind of urgent to set this thing up, i have been looking but i couldnt find a thread with the exact same situation.
Can i change the rom or somehow add wifi calling option into call settings?
Please guys i love this phone i dont want to get rid of it...
Have you tried converting it to a US998? I bought an unlocked H931 and use it on Metro by T-Mobile. I couldn't get wifi calling to work until I converted it and now it works flawlessly.

You can always try re-flashing Open EU KDZ.
Are you bootloader unlocked and rooted? Yes, no?

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.
Second, @seadersn started a guide to help people, but it's advanced:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/how-to/guide-volte-vowifi-functional-available-t3834267
I think there is no wifi calling in European version
I have seen this working on another h930.
Right i am happy to pay £100 to anyone who can make this work on my v30 with Three!
Im in Essex Uk happy to travel within 70miles radius if thats the case!
Good news! My H930G got an update today and now ot has VoWi-fi function! Also AOD got better. I'm very happy!

RAM management sucks so I use OP5-AKT tweaks and custom kernel AK3-Tachyon-PIE-Refurbish1 by Darkdiz (count Dracula on Telegram)
BTW I have a H931->US998 and although @ChazzMatt says a US998 is a US998, my attempts at FOTA Upgrade flashing to 30a have all failed. I've tried 3 times and they all got stuck booting and had to go back to 20h.

I've never used FOTA on LGUP, so don't know about that. I've used Upgrade and Refurbish modes on Dev Patched LGUP.
Also works with US998 converted from LS998.
Just wait for KDZ. The OTA hasn't even been officially released. So until it is, it's still technically beta or Release Candidate.
Once it's officially released, the KDZ will soon follow.

Thus confirming US998 30a was beta/Release Candidate and which was deemed not good enough to be official Pie KDZ. Same thing happened with EU H930 30a -- and LG should have not even released the buggy EU H930 30b, which became official Pie but which they soon pulled from their servers.

It's up to you. I'm staying on stable Oreo until Pie is officially released -- which for US998 means the full image KDZ is released to the public.
Also, I'm running Anxious V30 mod and she's not updating that mod for Pie until Verizon V30 gets Pie.
Enables:
All Lockscreen Weather Animations, Anxious Kernel Script, Custom/V50 App Profiles, DTS:X 3D Surround, Dual Speaker for North American Variants, Falsified Advanced DAC Mode, G7/V40/V50 Camera Features (Updated Camera App, Updated Gallery App, Google Lens, Super Bright Mode, Updated AI & Filter Data), Google Phone (stable), Google Sans, JoyPixels 5.0, LG Equalizer Settings (w/ Custom EQ), Pixel Roboto & Various Other Fonts, Pixel WiFi Mod, Razer Phone 2 Nova Launcher, US GPS Config, YouTube Vanced (Black);

Point is, what does this 30b Pie beta give me in return for discarding all those features?
