Don't click on the fingerprint option. Instead click on the gear icon beside the screen lock option.

There is no gear icon available.. I can't find it out.. can u send me a screenshot if possible?

Nice option to lock the screen using fingerprint

The gear icon is in your first screenshot.
Settings -> Security -> Gear icon (beside Screen lock) -> Fingerprint sensor can lock phone

I dont think that it will happen. Because people who already got it officially must be able to receive the updates in future. they wont opt in for the testing if thats not the case. mostly its the same update that will be official.
if you are already updated dont worry and enjoy the nougat. if not there are few methods in forum to downgrade which you can find easily .

system update available - is this marshmallow?

My wife just got a notification this morning that she has a system update available on her vzw s5. Does anyone know what this is? Is it marshmallow? Just trying to be cautious, she uses her phone extensively for work and I don't want to tell her to accept an update without knowing what it is.
Don't think so. Friend of mine has a note 4 and had the update last week, now his phone will reboot when not plugged in and won't reboot when plugged in. Idk. But I think it's just and update for 5.0.1
I had similar update on my note4 but havent done it yet as not sure to what it was...
Is there anywhere to find out (from vzw) what the update is?

Phone wasn't rooted so I can't say. My wife's work email (Good) does not work if the device is rooted so it wasn't an option.

2 questions:
1. The update notice says that it is a security update. Is this code for "the OS will be even more unrootable?"
2. The messages are somewhat insistent that I update. Should I try to block this? If so, could someone explain how to stop it?

Nougat 7.0 is available!

Finally Nougat 7.0 is available for G5 Sprint! Check OTA to get it.

I don't know about this but we can wait. LG have said that they will unlock bootloader after 7.0 update.
Downloading right now. FINALLY!
Edit:
Lets see how this runs. It definitely feels different.

Source?
I've been told that the G5 now supports themes on the nougat update. Anyone wanna try my theme i made and confirm that it's working?
To see a full post about it check this link:

You can see screenshots and change log there.
It's kinda odd the source hasn't been posted nor has Sprint update their updates page. I still installed it. Not sure what I think yet.....I know I hate the menu from holding the recent app button is gone. And I hate they are now using the google emojis. Liked the LG ones much better. Themes do work or least the ones included. the default and two others. They do turn the system menus black. w00t w00t
How do you download it ?

will be possible now to remove the bloatware?
Just installed it. Not thrilled that they moved the clear all apps button to the top of the page screen. Also the lock screen looks weird. All stuff I'm sure I'll get used to. Except for the clear all button. That's some mad bs.
I like it so far. It seems smoother and more responsive.

I see no issues at all. It's working on my girlfriends G5 just as it does on my V20. We traded devices since yesterday and I haven't found an issue yet.

Nope, but if the bootloader unlock rumor is true. Root will allow us to do so.
I love the update so far. I made a small album with some screenshots showing some of the new features: http://imgur.com/a/6H1us
Good News!
I just ran and tested the 'DirtyCowExploit' -and it's still wide open in ZV8! (7.0 Nougat).
I ssuurrreee hope this finally means we can root this bad boy...that would totally make my day!

Are you trying to update the firmware or LG software? Just curious because it's a LG software update.

Yes I do. Everything seems to have rolled over fine. Update screen was not the bouncing thingies but simply the G logo. Haven't rebooted to see.. oh just a little of the dots, then a quick G and then it was up. Like maybe 10 seconds for a reboot. Wow.

Always On Ambient Display
Either, this didn't make it through in my update somehow or I'm overlooking the setting.
Can anyone offer any help on enabling this feature?
Thanks!
Man, that's annoying, I still haven't gotten it on my Project Fi pixel. I left vzw because I never got updates!

Where is the setting for always on ambient display? All I see is the regular ambient display, where it turns on for new notifications.

I've asked around and consensus seems to be that it was NOT included in this update after all. Looks like they're saving it for the Pixel 2.

Im on fi I just downloaded the ota and then sideloaded it.
Go to settings - display - advanced and it will be towards the bottom.
Nevermind, misread. It is only for notifications. You can make it turn on when you pick it up though. By turning on "lift to check phone"

I use the modded one for O here. You need to fastboot and load TWRP every time you use it because it is not flashable yet.

There are also 8.0.0 factory images as well (along with the usual older factory images) - they are all here: http://www.infinitiofsuitland.com/VehicleSearchResults?search=new
To play it safe, I grabbed one 7.1.2 and one 8.0.0 factory image for the Pixel to put through the wringer (since this would be the first Pixel I've ever put through the paces).

My L24 got an ota

Just to let everyone know I have an unlocked bootloader and I was able to install the B140 update that came through. So if you're on the L24 maybe go into system update and manually check for an update because I didn't get any notification at all for it. I just happened to go into it and it was there.
Nothing for me but I will keep checking, thanks for the heads up.
Same here. I don't have an unlocked bootloader but I did have to manually check to get the update. So what does lens AR do? Is it the facial recognition update?

tbh i have no clue what the hell it's for. it says something about changing the background of photos. all i saw was a bunch of filters to play with like a dumbed down version of Snapchat but my wife said those were already there so i'm clueless
No facial recognition, and security patch is now February 1.
I have an error when trying to install it. I have an unlocked boot loader and TWRP installed but didn't go any further than that. It launches into TWRP and I dont know what to do from there when I attempt to install the update.
Well damn where's my update.
Not seeing the B140 update for BND-L24 on http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/ yet (only B130 under 'bond').
Perhaps they are doing a slow roll-out?
I can confirm I got the update. had to manually check for it.

I'm in Florida and both the wife and I got the update. Not sure what kind of process they use for rolling out updates
Ah ok, Texas here.
I'm in PA and got it this AM.
Any way to catch the URL or other info to pass along to Frimware Finder? . Patience isn’t my strong suit. LoL
Must not be geography but maybe imei numbers? My wife got the update but not me, same carrier same house. Oh well. We ordered here from honor USA during the first round of sales, I got mine from Amazon when they started selling them.

Mine too, but the "fix" is to remove your SIM card. Without it, your phone won't go into the bootloop. No need to go for the factory reset just yet...
