When its'on LTE, it says LTE, when it's on 5G, it says 5G, my phone is on 5G in the DC area. I know the difference, especially when I'm getting a ping less then 25ms

Never said you didn't know the difference. In my market 5G is dead for the V50. Sorry if I made it sound otherwise.

It was a few days for me when it came back, they are doing some tuning  I guess, you can do a profile update if you wish, but just give a couple of days.

Yea 5G is gone from the V50.

Not supported.

See list of devices.

If you're lucky and your old device gets sent to tmobile and they enable it on it then yes. On the old sprint network it's a no.

Surprised they didn't do the LG G6 since it has Calling Plus

Mine is still on 5G, for a few days they were doing some work on 5G in the northern virginia area, then it came back.

Yea I haven't been able to connect since yesterday. Did PRL and Profile update and nothing. I know that T-Mobile is supposed to be doing stuff in the STL market with their 5G network. So I don't know. I will look again when I go out for lunch.

As of yesterday my LG V50 officially doesn't connect to 5G anymore.

Haha,. I went to school in Carbondale. 80 degrees with 99 percent humidity.  Tough but great times.  Lol

That is a strong possibility on that humidity.

I'm in the phx market and haven't been able to get on 5G any longer.  Is that the same for other v50 owners.

In STL and still have 5G. Plus we are in the 80s today and tomorrow. Might drive down on Wednesday though 😛

Heard from sprint CS that the V50 has been discontinued. Any other confirmation?

I wouldn't be surprised. Didn't see it selling anywhere else for a while.

I am trying to resolve the issue described above by Trip; I am not sure if it is a side effect of my workaround or a separate bug. Stay tuned..

Sweet. Thanks for all your time homie!

Mike,

Is there any update on the fix for Importing our database back in SCP?

There is an issue impacting some Android 10 devices where log files cannot be imported or exported despite the appropriate permissions being granted. Users will see an error message about files not found or permission denied.

I am looking into the matter, but if you experience it and have not already been in touch with me, send a diagnostic report from within the app. That is the best way for me to see all of the pertinent information about your device as well as any error messages or permissions issues in the background. Thanks!

EDIT: I discovered the problem and will be working on it, but it will likely be several days before I can get it finished. Thanks for your patience!

Thanks Mike. I'm one of those users being impacted. If you need anything let me know how I can help.

I don't believe VoLTE was available everywhere.      Are you in Virginia?      Is it worth using VoLTE?  What is the benefit?    

The benefit is you can be on the phone and using data with true QOS unlike Calling Plus. I personally love it cause you can't MMS without it unless using WiFi Calling or the shitty Calling Plus.

Is that so? Well it definitely shows in their call quality rankings with rootmetrics that it doesn't most places so count yourself lucky.  To be clear volte is failing for me in areas where I have a very strong band 41 signal (pulling over 75 down). It's perplexing. What was once an extremely solid strong point for them has now become their weakest quality. 

When I first got my V50 I had issues like you say where I had turned it off. But after I factory reset my phone I haven't had issues since. Could be a configuration issue with the phone itself.

Granted, I haven't been *everywhere*, but I've had pretty much zero issues with VoLTE in KS, MO, or IL.

When I got my V50 it was crappy. It could be a fluke but after I started having issues with my phone and wiping the phone I haven't had issues. Every now and then I had the issue

So since messing with it for a few hours it is an adjustment to the changes.

Pros:

• In Split screen I use to have Signal Check selected for it to update the tower information. No longer have that issue with Waze selected on bottom
• Love the auto night mode option now (granted all apps don't utilize it I like it)
• Like the new layout of drop down

pretty sure I'll find more

Cons:

• Issue with Pandora and Google Music sounds like it is skipping. Has done this before on previous updates on other LG phones for me. Uninstalled Pandora still happening
• Split screen seems more difficult to activate/deactivate
• Still no hotspot button in the dropdown menu

Neutral

• On the camera not sure I like the new selection of the three cameras

Will update if finding more

I had to search, because I couldn't figure it out either. Two things: they changed how you activate it, and gestures are disabled by default even if they were enabled in 9. That may not be required for multi-window to work, but I was used to using it. To turn that on, just search for gesture in settings and you can turn it on (I set to both buttons and gestures). Then, to use multi-window, you have to get to card/task switch view, then press and hold the title above the app you want to split, and select multi-window.

 

Why can't you run Waze and Signal Check at the same time? Do you mean in split screen (multi-window)?

 

Issue fixed. But yes. I run Signal Check at top with Waze at the bottom

Ok it's been 30 minutes, what's the verdict? A real life review is required.
 

One of the main features I used before this is gone unless I can't find it to turn it back. I can't do Multi-screen. I hold down the button when trying to half screen apps and it doesn't work. That right there is enough to mess with me. I use it for when driving Uber/Lyft for having both apps open to turn off one if I get a request. Also I run Signal Check and Waze at the same time and can't do that. Not happy about that.

Call Performance:
Sprint's call performance plummeted. I speculate that this is attributed to all of the teething issues with the VoLTE rollout. Sprint's call performance score is 73.7, down from 82.7 on the 1H 2019 report. That's a 9 point drop in 6 months. Unacceptable. They are in last for call performance.

Text Performance:

Sprint's text performance rose slightly from the 1H 2019 report. Sprint's text performance score was 95.5, up from 95 on the 1H 2019 report. They are in third for text performance. 

These two items alone I know have been my issues. Whe VoLTE first came to the V50 (out the box) I had to turn it off majority of the time because I had so many issues with it. However now it has since been so much better. However you still have phones like G6 and G7 that don't have VoLTE at all. Still sitting with Calling Plus. 

As far as texting part of it is the RCS is really delayed sometimes to where I will turn it off. Some people that aren't using it on other carriers would report not receiving my text either. 

Has it frustrations for sure but I'm hoping Sprint doesn't merge with T-Mobile

I'm curious if an app is screwing up the background data for app.

Oh ok. I was curious cause I know mine does that in split screen if I don't have SC selected. Was just curious

Sometimes I feel like there are about 6 people with V50s.. the V50 forums everywhere are SO dead. Now, how about they push that December update finally, or even January? LOL

 

I've honestly never seen one in the wild other than mine. Always see Samsung and iPhones only

On both my Sprint LG V50 and Unlocked Amazon LG G8 information on signal check only refreshes on launch or under some Network change conditions. Basically it's almost always displaying very stale info.

I've notice mine can be slow to update sometimes. By any chance are you using split screen?

Found 5G in a couple places the last few weeks. I have confirmed it on in Norfolk, VA and Tampa, FL.

Has anyone else's V50 been running slow the last week or two? I've found I've had to reboot my phone a lot lately.
