Was never sure which line was to blame. I'm also looking forward to being able to be on a call and also being able to use data simultaneously which was advertised but never honored through sprint in my area since LTE went up. Just when I think I know everything about a V20...it always hits me with something new. Even after 5 years running, It's still the Best.

Dropped calls, choppy, noisy, and other voice call dysfunctions (like the other person not hearing you but you can hear them), will be a thing of the past. 3G/2G calls in weak signal areas and dead spots usually result to those mentioned voice call problems so you have to raise your voice or run outside in an open area with strong signal to keep the conversation going.
With VoLTE, as long as you have an LTE signal, even 1 network bar only, it won't matter whether you're inside a bathroom, elevator or basement parking. You're going to hear voice calls with VoLTE loud and clear with absolutely no interruptions, no need to raise your voice (that is, unless you completely lose the LTE signal). For the best voice calls, the other line should also be on VoLTE.

Enjoying the last few weeks with my LS997. Gonna miss this awesome daily driver because of the destruction of 3g in my area. Shame on the sprint technical team for droppin the ball on this issue, but we see what poor planning can do and so, Good bye sprint. It's been a crazy 23 years. Now on to the future with T-Mobile and a different device. Another V20! Lol.. Couldn't move on, so that H918 that I ordered finally arrived. Not brand new as stated but very nice. Updated to Oreo OS (BOOO!) But I've been informed that it can be reverted back to Nougat if I so desire, so cool. I've LG transfered everything from this unit to that one. Everything works! This unit will be dedicated only to DAC out the FLAC files in the car audio system after January 2022 and we'll see what this VoLTE is all about. Good luck to all trying to stay aboard, and Cheers!

Anonymous, 26 Feb 2019But we'll miss you! :-P You've been here trolling the V20 ... moreA very old post... It's amazing how the V20 stood the test of time. It used to be trolled a lot as a flagship phone when it was newer. I still have two of these phones. I haven't sold them because they're really still as good and perfectly usable and functional as on the day I bought them. Had invested on 6 original OEM LG batteries back then when they're still available. Two have gone bad, but still, my V20's are on original OEM batteries (still 4 left). My V20's were, and still are the best investment I've made in smartphones. They're my record longest running smartphones --- with no issues at all, apart from running a very old, not so secure anymore Android software.
I can't sell them because they still provide me with the best sounding music and analog FM radio sound from my headphones. Their learning remote that's been indispensable, which no modern phone in existence has, is still in use for a few of my home appliances that have lost their remotes. They still have very good 4K capable camera even when compared to newer 2021 phones. The availability of cheap 1 TB of micro SD storage that can be added in a dedicated micro SD slot without losing dual SIM functionality has made sure this phone still has enough storage.
Amazing how it hasn't lost much of its functionality and usability. I long for the day smartphone makers go back to designing and making phones that don't have planned obsolescence in mind. There would be less waste and more focus on real, more meaningful smartphone improvements rather than more of the same annually disposable technology.

kenshin, 27 Aug 2021Where can buy that batery 10,500mah for v20 I got a taeozi 10800 mAh. from Amazon for $40 (US). Then I picked up a Perfine 10500 mAh from eBay for $35 (US). Both are excellent and go about 3 days or more of you don't watch a lot of media. I Just went on a 3 day trip no charging and still had 35% when I got back, and that 35% would probably go another day. They Are bulky, but I've always replaced the stock batteries in all of the phones I've had over the years so it doesn't bother me long as I can find a holster that works. For this set up, I recommend a "Puregear Dualtek" They cost about $8 (US) on eBay and hold the phone very well. You will replaced them occasionally due to catching on stuff and normal wear and tear but for $8 no big deal.. Best Regards.

For everybody that runs FLAC files through their Quad DAC. I have tried a lot of different players over the years as My V20 did not come loaded with a stock player. None have compared to the version of Power Amp I currently run. Their newer engine really woke up the Hi-Res aspect of this DAC. High Impedance Mode is Ridiculous, in a good way. For experienced listeners, is there any other player out there that might squeeze even more out of This Master of the Headphone Jack? Thanks in advance.

I've two units, mostly for audio vid edition purposes, but the decision can be at present positive if the main currently unit used say I doesn't work more.
Remaining an only problem when Google cuts services to the oldests OS.
