I'm sorry if it has been discussed, i used the search functions and all i came up was a bunch of random stuff. So...... is there a date for the official firmware update, that would be available from the site of SE????
Search here!
I don't know where you are but most ROM updates have been available for the past couple of weeks. I updated mine using SEUS to R2AA008 Generic_NAM version and the new ROM date is 12/21/08.
Also check here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437785
WOW...i guess i'm missing something here. Why isn't there an official update available? How can there be 1K+ firmware updates in the links you posted, but nothing official?
Leaked
It seems the UK ones etc are all leaked and not official like the NAM and the Voda and other European etc. I wonder if there will be any differences though in the officially released ones?
Any word on the official release date?
i own a G2 D802 16 GB that i bought in Egypt
out of the box i had android 4.2.2
build: jdq39B
software version: D80210E-AME-XX
a couple of my friends who owns the g2 from KSA & UAE recieved the 4.4 update
while i try to update i receive "you are using the latest software version for current OS."
i searched on the forum and google for the stock KSA/UAE kdz with kitkat but couldnt find it.
so does anyone know if its going to be released to the Egypt model or where can i find the KSA stock kdz?

yeah its a shame to see everyone around getting it while you wait

May be because UAE and SA are kinda big markets for LG while Egypt is not!. Hopefully they won't make us wait more!
and if there's anyone from Egypt who gets it inform us about it here
its the same software, baseband only difference is their bloatware :S useless anyway plus for the open handsets there is no need its not a carrier dependent
yeah I doubt they have 4.4.2 already, cause it would be all over the forums. I think they are scamming you with a custom rom or version changer app

well i have a white d802 32gb belonging to my friend from ksa and it has 4.4 stock, no mod, no root.
Pics or it didn't happen!
4.4, great so we get a outdated kitkat.
adk them to download the kdz file so can risk your phone updating that kdz . if you have a 32gb that is.
I'm from ksa, I have d802
Didn't receive nothing.
I'm still waiting for 4.4
Sent from my LG-D802 using xda app-developers app
you should be waiting for 4.4.2 r2 and not outdated 4.4 ....
here is a trusted proof till i get the screenshot
http://www.gsmarena.com/its_officia...itkat_rollout_starts_this_month-news-7566.php
Any update on when we should be getting our update? I'm eagerly waiting, If not I will just flash a Spain Vodafone KDZ.
most ppl from ksa/uae/kuwait have Korean version that why they receive kitkat they sold it here for 600-700$ with extra battery and sdcard slot good deal

What do you mean by this?
I have installed this and get the same error. HOWEVER, there is a fix for it.
https://yadi.sk/d/KIG5F82jmXcUR/LGUP_0x2000_Error_Fix
copy the following LGUP_8994.dll to C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model\8994
After I've installed it, it says that this firmware is not for normal users or something like that.

yeah mine gets same error message whenever I reboot my phone.
the work around is easy for this problem, press back button.
it is a fair trade-off for me because I get this message in favor of Google's JAN security pack.
Is some possible how to flash it this firmware for International version phone or waiting for europe version?. Always suck on 9%

It is... As you can see three posts before, there is a solution.
And it is functional because I tried it and it finished the installation.
But I've turned back to 20h for europe.
Hi,
I cant find any news on the web if LG stopped update support for the h870ds from Taiwan or in general China? Only news i found they left china smartphone market.
At devtester there where only a few models included like V30 in taiwan with a security update this year.

I maybe want to flash CIS or INDIA on my G6 dual sim. Or any other advice of what rom is best for west-europe?
Bump
I second this question. I know there are quite a few threads about cross-flashing and similar stuff, but there are some things that are still not clear to me, even after reading these threads, so I decided to use this already existing thread to join in and ask more or less the same:
- is it safe to cross-flash regions? In my case I have TWN and thought about flashing India.
- Which region is most supported by LG? Looking at the firmware update history I would say India, can anyone confirm?
- Did anyone from Europe (in my case Germany) cross-flash and did any problems occur afterwards?
- will I still get OTAs after changing region if I'm in fact in another region?
Thanks for your help guys!
Cheers
I flashed India over SEA without data loss and everything is functioning normally. I used UPPERCUT for LGUP.

I run the india SEA version over my TWN rom without problems .
I used lg back up first and afterwards i needed to restore because it will whipe all after flashing.
You can update with any 870ds region rom over a other 870 DS version. If you want to update you will have to do manual everytime with lg up. Its shows h87010v-global-com instead.

I can answer this one very easily. HD870DS is the variant which receives quite frequent (ignoring South Korean ones). I have an Indian variant and the security updates are quite frequent. In terms of security updates, LG has been doing a decent job here in India
I bought a TWN version and have manually flashed over to an Australian version, everything seems fine. The only thing I cannot confirm is if I will still receive any OTA updates or infact any via LG Bridge, as, surprisingly, no more updates have actually been released since I manually flashed.

@Sathya241288 the procedure is pretty straightforward.
1) Download LGUP, Uppercut and H870DS kdz file that you want.
2) Connect phone to PC, double click Uppercut.exe (be vary, your antivirus may flag it as unsafe).
3) Choose Upgrade and choose location of the firmware file.
4) Start the flash.

Thanks a lot .
I'm in Australia and I also have a Taiwanese H870DS.
Like others here, I've been disappointed by the lack of updates. I'm waiting to see if we get an Oreo update, if not I'll flash it as instructed in this thread.
G6 is not alone.The taiwan v30 last update was januari,it just got a update patch in april.

It may be long for this model then.
i tried to ask LG ... this is the answer :
Dear Valued Customer,
Thank you for writing to LG!
Oreo updates for LGH870DS are in the pipeline but we do not have any news on the release date yet.
We apologise for any disappointment.
Thank you and have a nice day ahead!
Best regards,

I've just got an update to Oreo to SEA version, which was on Oct 2017 security patch. Just run LG Bridge and check for Updates!
Now version is V20a-SEA-XX
I recommend all TWN owners to follow the guide and discussion in this thread, so no need to continue here.
Hi guys,
This is the last version i have on my phone h870ds and havent received an update since november, but i've seen in other forums security updates in january and march, does anyone else have the same issue? Is this a region thing?
you not alone. TWN is the same version V10M - thought it says 1st October for me. Pretty much forgotten regions I think!
Just flash another Region, if you're able to handle this. I did it also by myself. I got the TWN v10m version like you, now i have v10v sea global 1st March Patch. LG left the China Market, maybe also the Updates.

I have considered that - just keeping an eye out if/when OREO gets released for the TWN region then saves me messing around flashing other regions. Ain't you might as well flash with a KOREAN version then you should get OREO straight away? Unless the SEA is KOREAN - if thats the case, haven't you got an opportunity to update to OREO?
Im on the same boat... SEA is south east asia, wich means Indonesia, Malasya, Singapur, Vietnam, Thailand among others, its a kinda big market to be left alone all things consider... Someone should ask LG about it, since my phone is from that region, and my LG support on my country at least sucks... otherwise i would do it myself...
Edit: From a quick search on lg firmwares site i found that many other LG products got updates on firmware for SEA versions as old as this past month.. so i dont think it stopped updating phones...
same here! just wating for oreo to flash another region...
So we should still receive Oreo even if the security patches stopped?

And if we flash to another region do we still receive OTA's or we need to keep flashing firmwares everytime?
My G6 is from the HKG region, is there a way to flash another region?
both HKG and SEA can get Oreo update now via LG bridge
