Has someone captured the ota?

Nice find thanks

Now just need the modified boot.img for this newest build.

Does anyone can tell me if this month update restores the baseband menu (#*#*4636*#*#)with all the bands options?
Thank you!

I actually successfully followed this method and manage to get this right again. I was just curious because I read on the google forums that this bug will be solved in a next update and was curious to know if it has been indeed addressed in this build.

Actually since SuperSU 2.60 you don't need to worry about boot.img. Depends on your config though. Check out the thread below.

Got the OTA just now. Any chance it might fix the wifi problems I started getting with last month's update? Or does it strictly contain only boring security fixes?

Can you post a link to OTA

I did see that after. However, I prefer system root still at this time. But I did see where you can run some commands to make the systemless to be system root.

So I'm on the elementalX kernel, TWRP recovery, and rooted (stock) rom. Can i take the OTA that's prompting my phone without it overwriting any of that? I see that the OTA is only 11.4MB so I would assume that at most it would break ROOT.
Thanks in advance!

I have the latest TWRP recovery and I'm rooted and running ElementalX kernel. I updated yesterday successfully.
Download the factory image and extract boot.img, system.img, and vendor.img. Nothing changed in the bootloader or radio with this update, so you do not need those.
Then, run the following:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
Then reboot into TWRP and flash SuperSu again.
Then wipe cache/dalvik and reboot into system.

Hey folks,
Has the OTA URL been made intentionally harder to capture? I got the OTA noon Jan 6th and immediately dumped logcat, but despite the log covering the entire morning there was no URL in there. The log seemed to reflect that the OTA has already been downloaded over WiFi previously, and the phone's UI simply gave the option to install, not to download.
Am I missing something here, or is the only way to capture now to be intercepting traffic and manually running an update check regularly in hopes you get lucky?
I feel like the Android update model is getting even worse, not better. Now not only do Google not publish the OTA links, enthusiasts have a hard time supporting the community too.

No problem! Also, when I rebooted into system, my phone bootlooped once but didn't again after that. And you will also have to reflash the EX kernel.
Just FYI, I got all of this information from flar2 over in the EX kernel thread from this post.

I didn't know there was a URL for the OTA and that it might show up in the logcat. Otherwise I would've checked for it. And doesn't logcat clear after each reboot? It would mean you would need to have adb ready and dump the log right after you start the download, but before the reboot which might be automatic. I know I've seen some logcat related stuff under dev options - at least for a longer buffer, not sure if you can make it persist across reboots.

I had not rebooted yet, the log covered from before 2AM that morning until noon when I received the notification. Unless the download occurred over ten hours before I was notified I would have expected to see the URL in the log.

Wow I have an update popped up!
Normally I have to manually do it!

[OTA] Marshmallow Build MCG24.251-5-5

Here is the latest OTA. Verizon says it has security (*cough* Sunshine *cough*) patches. I can confirm that it does not re-lock an unlocked bootloader. It's so minor, they just decided to slap an extra -5 on it.
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120733909
Do not take this if your bootloader is locked and you'd like to unlock it at some point. If you'd like to unlock it at some point, do it now! What are you waiting for?
You cannot flash this with TWRP.

Have you done any modifications at all? Even in the past? For example, if you were rooted and then unrooted, if any files were left over from that process, the update will fail. If you had xposed and removed it, same deal. Even if you replaced your emoji file with an updated one, that will also cause it to fail. Did you modify build.prop? Fail.
The only way to be sure that it will pass is to reflash MCG24.251-5 with fastboot before taking the OTA. Or you could always do it the easy way and flash MCG24.251-5-5 with TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/general/rom-mcg24-251-5-5-100-stock-t3565795

It will fail. Any modifications at all (like root or TWRP, for example) will cause the update to fail.

So I'm guessing it's for "security" issues. So I really don't need to take this, because it involves to much crap... Unrooting, cleaning cache, reflashing, having to do the phone over again, etc.... If that is all true, then how can I get rid of the system update?

If you look at the update script for the OTA, the first two thirds of it are dedicated to checking the system partition (and maybe other partitions. It's a pretty long read and I certainly haven't read all of it) for modifications. If the update is failing, that means it has detected something that does not match what it is checking for. I don't think the qe flag matters, because in the past I'm pretty sure that I've been at 1/1, and after a successful OTA it changes to 0/1.

Don't know if this would help someone install an update like this, but let me throw this out there. There's a way to boot to TWRP custom recovery and use TWRP without installing TWRP. Think of it as "temporary" TWRP.
Thus, you should still be able to flash stuff, including any TWRP-flashable updates, boot logos (to replace the unlocked bootloader warning, SuperSu, etc -- and when you reboot you still have stock recovery.
Now, I don't know why anyone would want to keep stock recovery when TWRP recovery does so much more... But I just recently helped someone with the same suggestion. He wanted to install SuperSu, get root, but keep stock recovery -- for some reason.
Anyway, think of it as "trial TWRP" or "temp TWRP".
I remembered when I made factory images for my Quark, in a variety of states, I used this temporary TWRP trick. I'd almost forgotten about it!
So, seems like you could flash THIS TWRP-flashable version of this update while temporarily booting to TWRP (but not actually installing it), and it wouldn't matter if everything "checked" out or not.
Of course, if you like it, then you can always install it permanently.
For reference, here's the most recent version of TWRP for our phone. (use the one with the most recent post date. @bhb27 updates it fairly often.)

TEMPORARY TWRP
OK, here's another suggestion. There is a way to boot to TWRP to install SuperSu but NOT install TWRP. You will not be flashing TWRP over stock recovery. You will STILL have stock recovery when you reboot. Think of it as "temporary" TWRP.
Put the TWRP file in your ADB folder and use this command. Your phone will boot to TWRP, but it will not be permanently installed. You can then flash SuperSu while booted into the TWRP interface and then reboot back to your system.
fastboot boot file-name.img (whatever your file name of TWRP is.)
Whereas, the command to permanently install TWRP is this:
fastboot flash recovery file-name.img (whatever your file name of TWRP is.)

Back when I first got this phone -- now over two years ago -- I made a bunch of backups in TWRP and posted the images online in various stages -- pure stock, stock + root, stock + root + TWRP. I made the first two with the "temporary" TWRP. People could flash them and already have root without having TWRP installed.

See? Even just stock + rooted but with no TWRP. I made that backup with a "temporary" TWRP which did not overwrite the stock recovery.
But they were only for 4.4.4 Kitkat, which came with this phone. After we went to Lollipop, I posted some more images, but just pure factory. Still, the "temporary" TWRP trick is useful.

Is it just me or the Gallery app in 6.0.1 scrolls really slow? Btw i didnt do a clean update from LP in case that could be the reason

May images are up. (SU may be broke)

Just was a gut feeling that whatever was going wrong in the developer build would somehow been implemented in the May build. I am sure they are unrelated, but that was why I asked before the OP was updated to include the SU break.

The VZ OTA will download if you set the date to May 4th.

just checked my phone and got Verizon update without changing date

My OTA for Verizon didn't hit yet. And moving the date forward didn't help. Hopefully soon.

Yes it will. Out of curiosity what version do you have?

I've attached a screenshot of my info page.
I tried to install it looks - it broke twrp. I was stuck in a recovery boot loop. It'd boot back up if I went to bootloader first. I flashed back to the stock recovery, then it booted fine. The update didn't stick, but that's okay.
I've not flashed twrp back yet. I'll do it later when I feel like running a new ROM.

He was likely getting the 33-5 update. The 67 update seems to be for India only.
I can also confirm that you should not take the OTA update with TWRP installed. It will put you into a recovery boot loop. Obviously nothing that can't be fixed, but don't waste your time trying it.

Will I lose root and or TWRP or does side loading keep TWRP? Also I wonder what's new or fixed or different in the update. I don't really care about security patches so I don't even know if it's worth it if I lose TWRP.

From what I know, in order to get the ota your bootloader needs to be the stock one, but I could not find it outside of full kdz packages.
I have not rooted yet waiting for this specific update (given the security fixes).
I would suggest you to backup all of your apps and settings with an app like Titanium Backup, flash stock, install the ota, reinstall TWRP, root and magisk and then restore apps and settings from the backup

The numbers are slightly different at the end compared to RS98821d , but I'm not sure what if anything might have changed.

maybe, for getting OTA should we just get unroot? How to do it properly?

If recovery is not the stock one, it will not be possible to install the OTA.
Alternatively you might need to wait for someone to make a flashable zip you could flash with TWRP, but given the fact development on this phone is not too active you might need to wait for a while before is available

I was also planning on flashing the complete 21c zip so that I could take the 21d OTA. Glad to know that might not work.
Anyone know if it would be possible to install just the stock 21c recovery image? It's my understanding that having a custom recovery installed is what makes the OTA installation fail. If TWRP is what's getting in the way of installing the OTA, wouldn't replacing TWRP with stock recovery solve the problem without touching the system? If anyone who knows more about this stuff than me could chime in, I'd appreciate it.

First I flashed the magisk uninstaller and rebooted back to recovery. Then I flashed the 21c COMPLETE ZIP and didn't flash magisk so it would replace TWRP with the stock recovery on reboot. Then I rebooted and when I tried to update it went to the stock and threw up an error then rebooted. Upon reboot it displayed a message saying that I couldn't update because my device had been rooted. So I rebooted back in to bootloader and flashed TWRP again. Then I flashed 21a COMPLETE ZIP and no magisk so that the stock recovery would replace TWRP. I rebooted and went through setup and took OTA updates until I was on 21d. Then rebooted back into bootloader and flashed TWRP. Then rooted and we've through setup. I tried every other way but this was the only way that worked for me. I hope it helps!

should be an easier way. Did u see some changes to the radio?

Some of you may remember that last year I had the misfortune of installing the Brightpoint ROM on my Unlocked G5, which completely messed the phone up by not allowing it to connect to AT&T's LTE. It was a process to re-flash the older ROMs/Bootloader and then rebuild it to a stable 21c. I had used it for a while like that, and the only problem I had was that when ending a voice call (HSPA) it would take a while to change back to LTE.
I ended up going with the S8 over the summer (Samsung discount + Note 2 trade in) which got it for $18/month. I've been using it ever since and the LTE to HSPA Voice to LTE change-off on the S8 is done within a second, unlike the G5.
My mom had been using an unlocked Samsung S5 for almost a year now, and it's constantly dropping calls, and this past week it froze on her and required a battery pull, so was thinking of having her try out my (unused) G5 to see if she liked it more. When I turned the G5 on today, I updated all the apps, and then installed the 21d OTA update. The hand-off from voice to LTE still is not as fast as my S8, but seems to be improved from the 21c firmware.

ROM Posted
Just to let you all know, I have posted the latest 21d stock ROM in my thread here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/stock-21c-roms-flashable-zips-imgs-t3679907

Hi. After 21d received my phone starts to rebbot when I try to play music on phone. No matter if this is stock player or google music. After self reboot music plays normally but if I click pause and wait until first stand by mode, the problem returns. Want to ask you guys to check if you have the same problem or I should download full version of 21d and check if the problem still exists. Thanks.
