Verizon ROM on US997 - LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion

Can I download and install the Verizon ROM (VS988) onto an unlocked US997? I'd like to use the phone on Verizon with VoLTE support. Now with LG defunct, it would sure be nice if the released all of their code and unlocked all of their devices.

[q] Verizon G3 Owners some questions

Hey guys I bought this Verizon G3 for a friend he wants to give it to his family in Europe.
I downgraded to 23C so far and want to install TWRP etc. On T-Mobile G3 it's much easier as just rooting and using TWRP manager and flashing whatever I want.
Anyways after I flash TWRP I can use any rom I want ? or the rom has to be specific for bootloader for example? on T-Mobile G3 I could flash pretty much any rom but one stock where I needed to flash modem+bootloader,then it worked fine.
Also if it safe to unlock the LTE bands? since the phone would be used in Europe that would be very nice to have European LTE bands.
Thanks!

Will unlocked H830 work on AT&T?

Thinking about the G5 to replace my Moto G (2015). I use the AT&T network via Consumer Cellular. Will the unlocked T-mobile version work on the AT&T network with full LTE support? Will probably install a custom ROM and I understand you can't do that with the AT&T version of the G5. Thanks.

sprint lg v30+ for tmobile user.

Sorry about creating a thread but wanted to make sure I can flash Sprint LG v30+ to T-Mobile without issue. Tried to read a few threads but from my understanding Oreo had messed things up at one point.
Does it have to be unlocked through Sprint first?
Simple flash T-Mobile or international rom makes it usable?

No, doesn't have to be unlocked through Sprint first. And Oreo didn't mess up anything.
Some of the T-Mobile guys are complaining about T-mobile Oreo. I own five US998 and don't see anything they are complaining about. Must be a T-Mobile H932 issue.
You will convert LS998 V30+ to official carrier unlocked model US998 V30+ with Oreo, and run on T-Mobile. Converting to US998 carrier unlocks the phone and gives it fastboot flash commands.
You can stop there, or you can bootloader unlock, install TWRP and root the phone.
Whatever you do after that (Install ROMs or whatever) is your choice.
You will NOT flash T-Mobile firmware onto the phone or you will brick the phone.
Many T-Mobile users are running rooted US998 (original or converted) on T-Mobile.

Thank you for clearing that up for me.
My Sprint V30+ is sim unlocked. If I flash it to carrier unlocked phone and toss a TMobile sim in it, will I get access to VoLTE?
Right now when I toss a TMobile sim in it, calls drop to 2G/3G.

If flashed to US998 Oreo you will definitely get T-Mobile Wi-Fi calling.
T-Mobile users can answer specifically about T-Mobile VoLTE on US998.
But since you can temporarily drop down to HSPA for phone calls and still get data, it's not critical. I don't have VoLTE on my AT&T Prepaid plan and I don't care.

1. The hardware and software support VoLTE. Whether or not you can get the proper T-Mobile IMS settings programmed onto your Sprint G8X is a totally different story.
2. I suspect that by using a jig such as Octoplus it would be doable. Or even using the modded version of LG Up, so long aa you have the proper KDZ file. Until someone manages to unlock the bootloader and we can have at this phone we wont know for sure. What model is your G8X?
Now that we have bootloader unlocked .. is the sprint g8x a good option for TMobile?

I would also also like to know. Probably should have done the research a week ago, but I bought an unlocked Sprint G8X to use on a T-Mobile MVNO and just recently learned that it'll need VoLTE for voice calls to work after the 3G shutdown. Ugh.

Hello jdapp,
I was able to get VoLTE AND VoWIFI on Mint (T-mobile) with these instructions. I also posted what I did on Post 50. The files work for firmware 20 but if you need the ones for firmware 30 let me know.

lg g8x sprint unlocked on tmobile volte and cross flash with USA unlocked variant

I have a Sprint unlocked version and use it with Google Fi on T-Mobile towers and I cannot use VoLTE or wifi calling. I'm not sure about flashing it, I'd guess so, but haven't tried...
