First, remove all rugs if possible. If not possible, do not give her access to any carpets/rugs/mats.
Do you have their feeding set at a strict schedule? That is the best way to make sure their potty is also on a predictable schedule.
Instead of waiting 30 minutes outside, take the 0% puppy out every 15 minutes for 5 minutes. If she doesn't go, bring her right back inside and watch her like a hawk (or hold her). Fifteen minutes later, try again. Try until she'll potty outside. When she finally does, give her a LOT of praise. Maybe even a treat. She'll eventually get it. Just maybe sure you watch her to prevent any accidents.
