[GUIDE] Getting some old features back in Virtuous Sense ROMS

GUIDE: Getting some old features back
INTRO: For those who dislike some of the changes/features made to roms as they are developed and are asking how to get them back, here is a how to. It is usually a simple matter of pushing the old files from previous builds into your current rom. Keep in mind that the devs are building a rom as they see fit. As with any rom that you don't build yourself, there will always be things you want to change.
-If there is a bug, post it in the thread.
-If there is a change that you personally want, then do it yourself. Don't expect the dev, and everyone else who uses the rom, to accommodate your specific needs/wants. You may not have noticed, but you aren't the only one using the rom!
NOTE: This guide and code are meant for the virtuous sense rom, but the concept is universal. For example, if you are using some rom and the new version is posted with, say the amazon mp3 apk removed, and you want it back, refrain from cluttering up the dev's thread with a request to have it back. This is both selfish and a waste of posting space. If you are to the point of installing custom roms, you should first be able to type basic adb/terminal emulator commands to copy/delete files. In this case you would extract the amazon mp3 apk from an old .zip and push/install it into your current one. Now wasn't that easier than waiting and hoping that someone will do it for you?
NOW TO THE GUIDE:
Auto brightness mod - To revert from the auto brightness 'mod', which is far too sensitive, to the original, simply pull the services.jar and framework-res.apk from a rom before the patch, and push them to your framework folder. I've attached them to the second post for ease.
Reboot into recovery
Code:
adb shell mount /system
adb shell rm /system/framework/services.jar
adb shell rm /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb push [directory of saved file]\services.jar /system/framework
adb push [directory of saved file]\framework-res.apk /system/framework
Reboot
-------------------
Keyboard mapping - The www/com key has been changed to a tab, which is good, as it was non-functional before. However the user keys have been changed too. I've modified a file which keeps the www/com key as TAB but also keeps the user keys as user assignable keys. Also attached to second post.
Reboot into recovery
Code:
adb shell mount /system
adb shell rm /system/usr/keylayout/vision-keypad.kl
adb push [directory of saved file]\vision-keypad.kl /system/usr/keylayout
Reboot
-------------------
Rosie auto-rotate - If you want to keep it so that rosie will only be in portrait mode with the keyboard closed, but dont want to turn off auto-rotate throughout all apps, just push the old rosie. Also attached to second post.
Reboot into recovery
Code:
adb shell mount /system
adb shell rm /system/app/com.htc.launcher.apk
adb push [directory of saved file]\com.htc.launcher.apk /system/app
Reboot

Attachments:
You need to rename "services.jar.zip" back to "services.jar" and "vision-keypad.kl.zip" back to "vision-keypad.kl". This is because the forum wont let you upload .kl and .jar extensions as attachments.

Thanks so much for this. I'll definitely be pushing the auto-brightness mod back, and I may do the keyboard, too (might let others do that one first, or see if rmk40/eViL release an update with that first).

Thanks for this!

What version of virtuous are you running? Did you rename it and remove the .zip from the end?
I'm using that exact file w/ no issues

calendar/lockscreen
Is it possible to replace the sense lockscreen/calendar with the vanilla versions? I have tried searching but can't find find any instructions for how to do this

Lockscreen - no.
Calendar - maybe, haven't tried. However I did find these 2 threads by typing in the words "htc calendar" in the search box (which means you didn't search very hard )

Good idea with this thread. It's impossible for us to please everyone and this is absolutely the most constructive way to deal with everyone's personal preferences. There is one key consideration for everyone. If we make other changes to the frameworks which you DO want, pushing files from this thread which have not been updated with said features will eliminate those changes as well. Point is, the concept here is good but it needs to be maintained.
Also, the intention with Virtuous is to provide options. The ROM isn't finalized so ROM Manager isn't populated with all the variants it will eventually have. Case in point, we had to re-base on the new Egypt RUU and are in the process of re-applying all our changes. If we had a variety of options, we would have to redo all of those as well. Once we're in a more "final" state, you'll start to see a lot more choices officially supported with the ROM.
The keyboard mod you have here will probably just become part of Virtuous 0.8.0, by the way. I had not realized our replacement eliminated the quick key customizations (oversight).

Chances are I'm not doing it right, as I'm only about 2% oriented in using ADB, but after following the code, pushing the files, etc, the phone boots up with perpetual errors and crashes. (Phone cannot be launched, etc.)
The process in which I did it was:
Wipe the G2, install v0.7.0, update to 0.7.4, remain in recovery and use adb and followed the code you provided above. (Everything says it works, in terms of mounting, pushing, etc.)
I've also tried it where I reboot after updating, let the phone launch fully, then go back to recovery to push the mod files. Same errors occur.
The only two mods I was interested in were the auto-brightness one and the orientation one.
Any idea what I did wrong?

Well from what you are saying, it sounds like the methods are correct. Did you make sure to remove the ".zip" from the end of the services.jar.zip file?

Can this be modified to restore ".com/www" to G2's?

Yup, and I have "always show extension" enabled in folder options, so I definitely got rid of the .zip.
Maybe I'll fiddle with it a little more, see if I missed something.

All right, here's the error I get after removing the files for the brightness mod, and pushing the ones you attached in:
"The application Google Services Framework (process com.google.process.gapps) has stopped unexpectedly."
Basically the launcher is completely inaccessible, the phone remains perpetually in the settings screen because I suppose it's the only thing that it can load without the launcher. It also can't get a signal except for wi-fi, "Mobile Networks" in the settings remains unchecked, and it can't be turned on. Hahaha pretty severe for a rather simple mod.
Here's a full step-by-step of exactly what I did:
Wipe User Data, Wipe Cache
Install virtuous v0.7.0, then v0.7.4 from zip
Remain in Recovery
Open command prompt Change directory to ADB (c:\AndroidSDK\tools)
Entered the following codes one at a time:
- adb shell mount /system (mounts)
- adb shell rm /system/framework/services.jar (file removed)
- adb shell rm /system/framework/framework-res.apk (file removed)
- adb push C:\services.jar /system/framework (success 0.250s)
- adb push C:\framework-res.apk /system/framework (success 1.80s)
(I just have the files on C temporarily for the ease of it.)
Reboot
Then the errors hit once I unlock the screen.
Heheh, I can't really think of any other way to approach it. Hmmmm.

Any idea what I'd need to put back for video codecs? I'm running CM 6.1 but it doesn't run streaming videos from the NHL Gamecenter unlike the stock rom. I'm assuming its a codec issue and was wondering what I'd want to replace.

Weird, I have no idea why that won't work for you. Anyway, there is another way around it. Just open up your patch.zip (from 0.7.0 to 0.7.4), go to the framework folder, and remove the services.jar and framework-res.apk from it. Then go about the wipe/install of both zips like normal. That way the patch zip will no longer replace those two files. Anything that you don't want changed in a patch zip can just removed from it.

Sorry cant help on that one, I haven't run a CM rom since like 1 or 2.0 haha. You may try to see if others are having that problem, or if it is a known issue with the 6.1 and streaming videos. Is it only that site? Maybe a flash player version problem?

Yea, I assumed it would be out-dated soon anyway, as changes are made to your roms. I'll adjust it to keep up if the need is there though. It was just a couple of the more simple alterations that I made, and after seeing so many people cluttering up your thread with posts about them, I decided to post this.
Mostly, though, I just wanted to remind people that many simple issues/personal needs (like an app being removed from a rom, or a small change to one or two apps) can be solved with a little bit of thought and some adb knowledge - both of which should be present if you are working with a rooted phone in the first place!

Do you know if there is anyone to return the power down message. I remember before there being and option to restart the phone, hibernate, power off, or reboot into recovery. I liked having that. Is there anyway to return this feature?

I warn people when I release an untested recovery on a given device
Most noobs tend to forget that flashing is not a safe operation. It can always turn into a nightmare
You can check the list of currently supported devices from main thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2201860
And browse into the different device support forums
Till now, the warning never became true except when some people flashed the wrong file in their phone
This warning should keep noobs away from testing it

Ah, yeah I have nothing against the warning, glad it's there even The Nexus 10 is a tablet though, not phone

I went to bootloader, erased recovery and flashed this one. Rebooted to recovery.
Battery meter at top-right says -1% (my tablet was on Pogo charge for hours prior to flashing). Get an error about being unable to create brightness sys file. During key test, randomly getting constant presses when holding 3 fingers on screen (probably a touchscreen-related issue).

Thank you for the feedback (reached my daily limit for :good
Brightness:
Do you by case know the path for your device brightness file?
Not a big deal though as I can search / look for it in rc files. I used Samsung usual path, but it seems they used a different one for google devices
Battery:
Will check for the battery path used
Touch
It is supposed to be one finger to use
Interesting though...

Can any one run this in adb shell while in recovery
Or you can use the console terminal in aroma file manager while in recovery
Code:
find /sys/. -name '*bright*' >/sdcard/brightness.txt
Then
Code:
find /sys/. -name '*battery*' >/sdcard/battery.txt
And attach the resulting brightness.txt and battery.txt files on sdcard
About multi touch: i will look to allow only slot 0 to ignore second finger

OK -- re-learning linux command line as I go (it's been many years!). Good to wake up that part of the brain again...
Had to modify command above: needed a space between ls and -l, and I'm assuming you want "/sys" up front in the fully qualified file name... Assuming that's all good, the new result is attached as battery2.txt
Let me know if this is what you need, or if anything else is needed. I've got some time to squeeze in a few of these today as needed. Also REALLY looking forward to trying this out on my N10 (and would love to see this on the Galaxy Nexus if ever possible!).

No Mobile Data on Treble Roms

I've tried over 5+ different treble ROMs and the mobile data will not work. My friend @Spaceminer had helped me try to solve it by finding an apns-conf.xml as well as a flashable zip but no luck.
I'm using the Moto G6 Play XT1922-7 Boost Mobile Variant.
I'm sorry I haven't provided much detail to the issue but this basically sums it up.
Thank you for any help.

Same problem here with 1922-4 retail variant, i have tried to flash the vendor.img over gsi's via fastboot but it just get stuck in a bootloop. The only option i have is stay in stock pie

You have to find your correct apns-config.xml, place it in /system/etc and set permissions to 0644. Then reboot, open your mobile network settings and reset your apn.
If you ever want to go from Pie to Oreo, grab your very last Oreo firmware and flash everything like normal. Some things won't flash, and that's okay. If that happens, just skip it and flash the next items in line. When you're done, reboot it normally and let it encrypt at least once. If you don't let it encrypt first it can cause a recovery bootloop and you'll have to flash everything again.

Use a root explorer, navigate to the file, long press it and select permissions and set them to rw-r--r--. It should prompt you to mount the system automatically to make the changes. Mine does anyhow. (See sceenshot)
Or;
In TWRP, select mount > system. Then select advanced > file manager > navigate to and select the apn file, and you'll have an option to change permissions. Select it, delete the 0000 and enter 0644 then swipe to confirm. Reboot.
Or;
Using an Android Terminal enter;
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
chmod 0644 /system/etc/apns-config.xml

Thanks! I will try this the next time i flash a rom

Would someone be so kind enough to share their BOOST apn.config.xml that the replaced the one on with that does NOT work on these GSI's?? If you do I'll follow you and hit thanks all day. ??

Here's (see screenshot) the closest I've ever gotten far as having data on a gsi. I must have the wrong xml file. I am fully aware of the process described above and have even done it multiple ways after I knew the way described and how I was adding the apn xml was correct and I have zero data.
If someone will attach their apn.config.xml, the one that they acquired data from using the boost Mobile network I'll be extremely thrilled and forever greatful to add it to the thread I made over in guides section so that in the future people can solve this issue fast and get her running and have a jolly day. ? I made that thread (I'll change the name later today) initially to consolidate as much info as I could and put it all in the op so we can be a bit more organized. I just haven't figured out anything else so I can't add to it just yet. ? This would be a great addition if someone would be so cool enough to kick me down some knowledge far as what's the correct apn.config.xml to replace the og one in gsi to get data working. I've deleted the current apn xml and replaced it with the one I have, I've overwritten it, I've tried countless times messing with the telephony.db and I obviously can't do it. Please pleeeaasee post the proper apn xml so I can get this phone going and add to op over there. @Starkiller2
I hope everyone is having a good day. It hot as **** where I'm at today. ??

I got nothing on xml. I only ever found one way to get it to work on boost, that was with the sqlite editor.

Next time you're running a custom rom and you get data working, you can just copy /system/etc/apns-conf.xml and save it for later. You won't have to mess with any apps after that.

Vague and unhelpful. Need better directions on that I messed with sqlite editor for days on end swapping out telephony.db things and never did get it going.
Did you swap both of them??
Did you swap other files in telephony.db too?
Details...?
What files exactly did you extract in telephony.db?
Vague comments never help anyone. Better to not post at all then post some two word comment with a link.

I apologise, I'm driving across country and was making an effort to help in the little time I had, but you're right, better to not try at all. Which may be why you aren't getting any answers to your questions. Some info is usually better than none and can sometimes lead you in the right direction, but you won't even get that much snapping at everyone who doesn't immediately solve the problem you have and then rage quitting when you can't do it yourself. It makes people not want to put in any effort. You have 4000 posts I assumed you could figure out how to edit apns with an app from the play store. You're right. I should absolutely stop offering any input at all, but rather I should just start *****ing and whining when I'm not spoon fed like I see so much here.
And as I have posted directions in multiple other threads, I assumed you had done at least a cursory search for your answer(as per forum rules) which would've found those posts but I was apparently wrong there as well.

Next time you're running a custom rom and you get data working, you can just copy /system/etc/apns-conf.xml and save it for later. You won't have to mess with any apps after that.

Thank you. That's good to know

hi, there is in the web a file apns-conf.xml to download? or sombody take us a backup? Thanks

Hey gang, I too am having issues trying to simply get mobile data working on GSI's. I have a Pixel 3a, and have tried multiple Android 10 GSI's, all of them don't allow me to use mobile data. I have not tried the apns-conf.xml trick yet, as I am unsure if that's the answer if it hasn't worked for others. Android 11 does not use an apns-conf.xml in system/etc/ so I couldn't extract it from my current setup unfortunately. Wish you all luck, post back if you get something working.

not working, moist do you have rooted phone? because only on rooted phones you can do this trick

I'll probably flash a ROM this weekend and pull my xml to test this. I have Telus so I unfortunately can't help with the Boost users, but can at least help confirm whether this method works or not.

ok thanks i wait, my phone seems to be dead on 4g.. says: no registration..
I tried everything imaginable and perhaps even the unimaginable .. heheheh .. but the result is always the same: no recording on the 4g, so I'm more and more inclined that it is a hardware failure or even a damage to the eeprom memory because 'I have formatted everything and the mobile phone has recharged everything correctly but it was useless ..
I tried to see that maybe it has a sim locked, but I didn't manage to enter meta mode and try to force it also because only with miracle box there is a guide ... umh ... and I do not stop until I succeed in the objective, and then the next step will be to take a complete image of another mobile phone identical to mine and copy it over it (but it is almost impractical because I cannot find anyone who gives me a full backup of this phone) and then I will brutally try to put another image of another working smartphone on it, leaving only the crucial sectors intact (system, boot, vendor, recovery, preloader, everything else I format it hehehehh) I will know..

Well I have a ROM flashed and found the apns-conf.xml, which is not included on my stock ROMs (10 or 11). Now going to flash a GSI or two and do some tests to see if I can get any data working.
Edit: Couldn't get the apns-conf.xml to work. However, I did find out the some GSI's work right out of the box for my Pixel 3A, those included AOSP 10 / 11 by Phh, and the CAOS R build. Bless, qidroid, havoc booted fine but did not have mobile data working.

[GUIDE] Fix PERSIST.IMG Loss Of Finger Print Sensor

New video guide below
VIDEO GUIDE
1. *VERY IMPORTANT* We need to back up your broken persist.img and store it in a safe place. PC preferred. We will need this later. Do not leave the backup on the device as the next step will wipe the device.
*IF YOU LOOSE THIS PERSIST.IMG BEFORE WE MODIFY IT WITH A CALIBRATION, YOU LOOSE ALL CHANCE OF FIXING THIS YOURSELF*
*IT HOLDS IMPORTANT FP CALIBRATION DATA THAT WE WILL BE OVERWRITTEN IN THE NEXT FEW STEPS*
Note: This requires root​
Type this into terminal or ADB shell with root privileges.
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist of=/sdcard/persist.img
Backup the partition to another device. Preferably a PC as you may need one in the later steps.
2. Next we have to restore our OS to an earlier OOS. (10.5.4 is what I used and recomended)
Use the MSMTool to restore your device to 10.5.4.​Note: You will loose your unlocked bootloader and will be required to unlock your bootloader once more.​
Guide and Source for MSMTool
MSMTool 10.5.4 Download
3. Next step is to unlock the built in 'Factory Mode' I have a guide on how to do this below.
[GUIDE] Unlock Factory Mode *root*
4. Now we need to perform a FP calibration. We want to fail.
Enter Factory Mode as shown in the previous guide. (*#808# in the stock dialer)
Swipe over to "Device Debugging"
Select "Finger print test"
Select "Finger print calibration test(Pure White - 90% Blue)
Select "Start Test"
Keep on going through the tests (You must hold an object or your finger over sensor on all BUT THE BLACK RUBBER TEST of these test for it to work!)
The test will fail and this is what we want. There should be a lot of red lines, if you only have one or two try again.
5. We need to extract the the old broken persist.img
NOTE: It is important that we extract the backed up persist.img as it has been unmodified by our recent calibration. This persist.img although broken still has all our working calibrations on it including Finger Print calibrations.
The way I did this is by opening it extracting it via 7-ZIP on my PC​
Once extracted move the 'DATA' folder and the 'ENGINEERMODE' folder to the root of your sdcard.​
6. Download a root explorer. I highly recommend 'Solid Explorer' from the Play Store.
Open 'DATA' folder and delete 'gf_persist.so'
Select the 'DATA' and 'ENGINEERMODE' folders you just put on the device and place them at /mnt/vendor/persist/
It should ask you if you want to keep the old or new files. Select to keep the new.
Reboot.
7. If you followed all my steps correctly this you should be able to go into settings and add your fingerprints.
Why does this work?
Good question... I think what is happening is something in the persist partition breaks which causes the device to think that the sensor is not calibrated when in fact it still is.
When we start and fail a new calibration this fixes whatever was broken in our partition. But now we have a failed calibration.
So what we do is take the files from our backed up persist partition and move over all the necessary files that have our original calibration. But now our partition has the part of it that wasn't working fixed.
I spent a good many days working on this fix (1-2 hundred hours or so). I hope you can be respectful if you have issues. Please kindly ask below and I'll do my best to help.

Thank you for this!

Absolutely fantastic that you solved it, I RMA,'d mine, but for others this is Highly beneficial......?
I will also thank you for your many hours placed so that others now don't have to RMA.
Well done ......?

So I went back to 10.5.4 as instructed. Previously on 10.5.10 and backed up persist.img before rolling back. Followed all steps correctly. Fingerprint still gets an enrollment error. I am honestly so confused what I did wrong.

Yes, I copied both data and engineer mode folders as instructed. Also, I was dumb and only did one fingerprint test. After going through all of them it did end up failing at the end.
Still wanted to give this a go before sending my phone back to OnePlus for repair.
Edit: Thought maybe upgrading from 10.5.4 to 10.5.10 would fix it after following all instructions, still have a fp enrollment error.

Old guide said not to touch the sensor during calibration. New one is touch touch on all tests but the black rubber test.
Make sure you see a bunch of red lines after you run the calibration and it fails. Not just one.

[Guide] Make the Korean Q Great Again [relocalise, volte, wowifi, debloat and more]

IF YOUR BOOTLOADER IS NOT ALREADY UNLOCKED, THIS GUIDE IS NOT FOR YOU.
READ EVERYTHING AT LEAST ONCE BEFORE PROCEEDING!
THIS GUIDE WORKED GREAT FOR AT LEAST 3 PERSONS, THIS DOESN'T MEAN IT WILL WORK ON YOUR PHONE.
This guide exist in case the ULM Q never released
This guide should do the following :
relocalize to your country (I'm only providing the files for canada, usa and eu)
Root and TWRP (useful if any custom roms get released)
debloating
volte/vowifi/vilte/viwifi
Very Good battery (see screenshots down below)
mute shutter camera
4k 60fps video recording (?some people said it wasn't available on the korean Q?)
wifi tethering
and more
WHAT'S NOT WORKING FOR ME :
lg smartworld : meaning no lg app update.. which can lead to the next problem
Drag down for search : working only if you do not update the google app
What you need:
1 to 2hrs of free time
Working QFIL with minimal knowledge
Working Fastboot on your pc (See spoilers)
I did NOT manage to make fastboot work on my amd ryzen pc (3600)
here's what I tried :
- multiple fastboot drivers
(fastboot was kinda working.. now it just never load any driver)
- plugged in a usb 3.0 hub
- FWUL : https://forum.xda-developers.com/an.../live-iso-adb-fastboot-driver-issues-t3526755
(the latest version as of 2020-11-25 couldn't even boot on this pc...)
- ubuntu
(crashed the phone to a gray screen)
- all my usb ports : 2, 3 and 3.1​ What I didn't try but could work for you:
- plugged in a usb 2.0 hub
- linux mint?​
Soo... what did I do? I went back to my good ol' intel pc running windows 10 worked like a charm.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Also, this guide assume you had working volte/vowifi on your phone at some point...
Because, you will need the carrier folder from the /oem/op/ folder.. should look like this : open_us, vrz_us, open_ca..
Or you will need to retrieve it from your working firmware...
I'll be providing :
- Android 10 - G7 - OPEN_CA (Canadian operator folder) (What I'm using on my phone right now)
- Android 9 - V35 - OPEN_US (ULM/GFi) (Confirmed working by @cmrntnnr)
- Android 10 - G7 - OPEN_EU (untested) (thanks @vlad48)
!!!!!! Before crossflashing to the korean kdz !!!!!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Crossflashing can break stuff sometime.. it is advised to do a full backup of your phone using https://github.com/bkerler/edl
if you're feeling lucky and do not want to do a full backup... you should still use qfil to atleast backup the following VITAL partitions : Fsg, modem, modemst1&2, ftm
STORE THOSE FILES PRECIOUSLY
------------------------------------------------------------------------
File you need to download :
To your phone SDCARD :​
OPEN_CA or OPEN_US or OPEN_EU (untested) (Decompress this file, delete the zip)
OPEN_CA is too big, I had to delete apks that weren't from my carrier. (Bell)
(open_ca/apps/ -> kept only bell apks)
debloated-priv-app-RENAME-ME.zip (Decompress this file, delete the zip)
debloated-app-RENAME-ME.zip (Decompress this file, delete the zip)
twrp-installer-v3.3.1-v35_a.zip
Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_11.02.2020.zip
Magisk
(OPEN_EU only) : voenabler-v1.8.zip
​To your pc:​
vbmeta.img
30b_boot_magisk.img
30b_abl.bin (shouldn't be needed, but provided as backup)
Korean Q 30b (I went with LGU_KR since the other one weren't available back then)
The V35 engineering abl you got from here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v35/development/bootloader-unlock-root-instruction-t4052145
This file was renamed to engabl.bin in this guide​
You need to use SOLID EXPLORER, not esfile or any other since I can not guaranteed it will apply the correct permission to the files and folder.
LGUP > Flash V350N30b_00_LGU_KR_OP_1015.KDZ using partition DL, select everything except FTM
Let the phone boot for the first time and reach setup screen
LGUP > refurbish phone using the kdz (this should fix potential nt error when booting the phone, it did for me)
Let the phone boot for the first time and setup the phone quickly so you can install app. (no lock or fingerprint)
Patching vbmeta to edit the operator/carrier information & patching boot for magisk/root
QFIL > partition manager > abl_a > read, store that file and name it : needed_abl.bin
How to retrieve the file: WIN+R , %AppData%/Qualcomm/QFIL , enter, pick right folder, save and rename bin file​
QFIL > partition manager > abl_a > load > engabl.bin (for fastboot)
QFIL > partition manager > abl_b > load > engabl.bin (for fastboot) (Optional)
This is useful in case you need fastboot in the future, simply boot twrp then change slot from a to b and reboot.
To switch back from fastboot : fastboot --set-active=a​
reboot the phone using vol- + power
command :
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta_a vbmeta.img
fastboot oem edl
QFIL > partition manager > abl_a > load > needed_abl.bin
QFIL > partition manager > boot_a > load > boot_magisk.img

magisk > modules > install from storage > twrp-installer-v3.3.1-v35_a.zip
SOLID EXPLORER > copy the carrier folder to the oem/op/ partition ('OPEN_CA' in my case)
SOLID EXPLORER > edit oem/op/cust_path_mapping.cfg and replace LGU_KR with OPEN_US ('OPEN_CA' in my case)
If you're still getting nt error at boot, you'll have to fix it in order to make the phone load open_us..
try adding a second line like this :
FFFFFF,84=/oem/OP/OPEN_US
If this doesnt do it, you'll have to share your nt error in the comment.

SOLID EXPLORER > Rename the folder /oem/op/LGU_KR to LGU_KRori (this will make your phone lag/glitch/freeze real quick.. proceed with the next step ASAP)
Quickly go in magisk and use the reboot menu to get to twrp. (reboot to recovery)
Format data
Reboot to TWRP/recovery
Flash Magisk-v21.1.zip, if it doesn't flash, reboot using the reboot menu to TWRP/recovery again until it works. (no red text)
Flash Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_11.02.2020.zip
Reboot to system
if the vowifi toggle is not working for you
For OPEN_CA/OPEN_US :
SOLID EXPLORER > move debloated-priv-app-RENAME-ME to /oem/op/priv-app/
SOLID EXPLORER > Rename the new folder to OPEN_US or OPEN_CA
Reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
FOR OPEN_EU : (these steps are from the v40 community telegram, Quote from Lucky)
magisk > modules > install from storage > voenabler-v1.8.zip
If you transplant the KR OP with OPEN_EU, and are based in EU, this module should add the props that enables the VoLTE and VoWifi options.
Only if this fails, do you need to tinker with the xml files.

Optional.
Adding back missing lg apps (I provide QMemo and LG Weather)

change the sign on the following lines (from - to + and + to -)

Do not forget to enable developer option and adb AND
Plug you phone in computer, open adb shell and type su
on the phone, grant root.
It is useful to have a root shell in case the phone is stuck while booting (not boot looping)
you can also just reboot to twrp and undo your modification from there.

No prob!

Good luck everyone

I've completed all the steps (except for lg weather) and I didn't notice anything different in call features until I saw the description of the international roaming setting referenced "outside of US PR etc." instead of "outside of foreign territory or whatever" which indicates a success.
Then I Applied the vomaster.zip from somewhere else (prob the same thing as the OP's not sure) and flipped on wificalling on the settings and got the setup prompt for wificalling from my carrier and later a "wifi setup's been completed" notification, so I guess things are finally good again. Unfortunately RCS doesn't seem to want to cooperate either way =\
Not sure why I did it because korean q on its own was usable, but I did it it anyway and it is nice, performance feels better too but this could be because I went from LG firmware to open_us. Both the incoming and outgoing calls and texts feel much snappier as well and doesn't take 5 seconds to go anywhere. Also it doesn't ask me whether I want to listen to the call recording or not at the end of every phonecalls so that's nice. thank you
-edit
one question, is there any way I can use the korean AOD's? I liked the one that shows calendar and time.

odd! you really shouldn't have to flash that vomaster.zip at all if you're located in the US.. honestly.. I don't even know if rcs is available in canada and I'm really not sure how to test this feature.. You might have to toggle wifi calling again if you got the wifi calling activation success notification.. it was the case on my friend phone..
Just to confirm...
volte/vowifi working?
ulm or awm?
carrier?
Looks like the calendar is available with the open_ca files... not sure for the open_us.. sorry..

That file is a zip file with two different files in it, do you mean to rename this zip file to engabl.bin?

After step 5 I started to get some weird outputs.

Seems like that output is normal because I have the rom rooted and twrped right now but I did have to change the active slot to B at this point because otherwise QFIL wasn't able to read the partitions afterwards. Oddly enough that was the only change I had to make, every other command worked as is referencing abl_a even though I changed the active slot to B (and when I flipped the steps to target slot B instead I just got bootlooped).
Everything's looking good so far. I had not been able to setup twrp on this phone so that's welcome. Hotspot wasn't working on Oreo either so that's another good improvement at least for me. Hopefully, this update ends up being a little bit more stable than Pie.

that's somewhat ambiguous, I ended up putting the abl_a in the a slot and the abl_b in the b slot. Not sure if they're interchangeable or if that's the reason why I experienced the issue I experienced. Shouldn't be but who knows.

I'm noticing that locking the screen takes a while using double tap. At least a second or more before the phone responds and actually locks the screen, is anyone else experiencing this?

Apparently it was due to my launcher, they're having some issues with that gesture on Android 10.
The Korean Q is solid, I'm surprised that it's performing better than Pie on this phone. Thanks for doing this guide. Anyways, I still get the camera shutter sound any idea as to why? Also, is there a way to disable the vibration for the fingerprint reader when the read is successful? I managed to do it for Oreo but haven't found a way to do it for Q

Just to confirm...
volte/vowifi working?
ulm or awm?
carrier?
Looks like the calendar is available with the open_ca files... not sure for the open_us.. sorry..

I don't know how to check for volte working, but vowifi is def working at my work with ****ty at&t signals.
awm -> ulm -> korean q.
I get advanced chat features enabled but nothing works =/ maybe its fixable with googling but im reasonably happy with my phone atm, minus lgpay not being accessible for v35 and v30s outside of korea =\

Has anyone passed safetynet using this rom? Some pointers would be appreciated.
