[Q] On-screen phone (OSP) not supported anymore?

Hi all,
I tried to setup on-screen phone (OSP) on the G3 but it didn't work.
Installed all drivers and having a connection with LG PC Suite with no problem as well. But on-screen phone doesn't find my G3 (D855).
In another forum I found out that also the menu entry for on-screen phone is gone which was available on the G2.
I also contacted LG support in my country because of this. They even called me twice and said that they have to check for themselves if this is not supported anymore and they want to get back to me with further information.
For me this is a killer feature and one of the main reasons I switched from Samsung to LG. I cannot be that this is supported on older LG phones but on their flagship device not anymore....
That would be another giant step back for the step backward thread here...
If this is really true is there a way to port this feature from the G2 to the G3?
Have a great day.
Cheers,
JJ

Look around. I remember reading through a thread where somebody provided a solution to activate this feature.

It worked for my 851(T-Mobile G3), thanks!

Has anyone been able to get this working on the Sprint version of the G3?
I've tried countless times (just tried again) and made sure I followed the steps precisely, but to no avail.
OSP (nor does LG PC Suite) still does not recognize my phone, yet my PC recognizes my G3, allowing me transfer files.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help

My wife's phone is downloading a114mb update right now. I was just messing around and was surprised to see something start downloading.
Edit - Looks like some new bloat called Lookout was installed. Unless that was always on here. It's a system app so all I can do is disable it.

Lookout was on mine when purchased Saturday (12/6). Is there an update log?

Hey guys we need somebody to download the update on their phone and upload it. Just DO NOT install it yet because the file will be deleted once you do. I think it's stored in a security or cache folder somewhere, I forget exactly.

Honestly I haven't read the changelog feature update list from Samsung or Sprint but I can say that it may bring some hidden suprises.... and not the good kind. I could be wrong but if you're like many people here at XDA, you might want to hold off until more information is available from somebody who can give more details on what this OTA contains and how it will effect our phones. These days carriers are getting more and more sneaky.

I have update ready also. So going to backup. I have fake system status enabled. Im on echo rom. When I get home this evening Im going to try to download and install on to0 of echo rom. Is this a good idea? Or should I flash stock firmware take update and hopefully reroot ect.

114mb its a small update. The connection issues this phone has im at the point of not caring if It breaks root permanently. Has anyone taken update and rerooted? Three blocks from a tower and struggles to hold lte.

If someone can walk me through it. I will download and upload to dropbox. For someone to do their magic.

Dang Tx now you got me a little cautious. Maybe Ill take your advice and wait. Let the change log reveal the suprises.

gear vr update
This update is to enable the phone to work with the Gear VR device and download oculus software

Avatar installed after update
It installed Avatar in voice mail.. (animated voice mail.. seriously !!!)
Reduced RAM usage.. previously it was around 2.3-2.5/2.7 gb now it always under 2 gigs like .. 1.7/2.7 .. yeh..

Sprint Update
Hopefully this fixes the Wi-Fi issues, and adds more good stuff.

Looks like an stability update that Verizon T-Mobile n att have
Sent from my SM-N910P using XDA Premium HD app

I installed the update and it did nothing in the way of fixing the slow LTE/SPARK speeds. So it was a useless update to me. I have anew N4 arriving tomorrow from Sprint, maybe Ill be one of the lucky ones and get one that does not have the slow issue. Seems a handful of models out there don't have the slow data speeds. I wish they would address this issue before other lower priority issues.

So far this isn't available through Kies. I'm new to using Kies, should I expect it to become available any time soon? (because my phone is rooted it won't even check for OTA updates.)

Seems to fix all the lag problems I was having. But I already ordered a replacement. ?

D855 ROM on D851

Can this be done without any consequences? I was under the impression that the 855 is just the unlocked GSM version if the 851 which is "locked". There aren't many hardware difference that would effect this right?

Yes you can get stuck into a bootloop,softbrick or worst hardbrick

That's what I figured but I just wanted to make sure. Damn. I saw there was a 6.0 ROM floating around for the 855

"You could try it" Don't even think about it, you can't flash d855 rom on d851, you will brick your phone.

On whatever rom you should not do it, they're not the same device, the phone will be bricked.

Yes I know and I told him before to not flash it

Alright fellas lets take it down a notch, I'm not going to flash it I'll just sit tight and wait for somebody to bring marshmallow to my devices

How to know if my note 7 has chinese battery

Hi there, i have a 1 week note 7 which works Good and no problems at all,
Is there a way to know if my Note 7 has a Chinese battery (not affected by failure)
My Note is made in Vietnam SM-930FD

I would like to know too but I think that requires to be opened, ruining the IP68. There is no software I know of that can tell which battery we're on.

I think Samsung should know by serial number or Imei...

I hope soon they will find out, I'm anxious to know if I'm walking around with a time bomb.

check if you have the play store?
as I understand it only the devices intended for China have the "safe" Chinese battery, and China doesn't allow the Google play store to be pre-installed.

note7checking is in the site for checking - worked for my t-mobile made in china Note 7 - confirmed I was ok since I wasn't eligible. couldn't post link as it was blocked and it wasn't easy to find, hopefully googling "note7checking" will work for you
