A few infos for those who have problems on V20D H815

to all the guys on the international variant who have problems with sot and overheating issue, lg knows about the problems and they are working on a new update, i saw this on a german forum they are allready testing it so it should come online in one or 2 weeks.This information was given them by the lg support. Wanted to share u this because i only saw it in german forum and not on xda. So we just have to wait now

My h815 never heated up, and the SOT was about 3h30m or 4h, depends on the use that i was giving.
If its for us to have 5h....YUPIIII !!!

So m8 u are one of the lucky users but there are some issues on some h815 like strange battery drainage fron 95 to 50% and randomly heating up peocessors even with clean installation of v20d. And sometimes calls dont work properly they are buggy too. And further i have to say that this is the information given us in the german forum by the lg support workers. Lets wait for the changelog we'll see then what has been changed

Thank you for the information!
From what I saw - in V20f LG already fixed the SOT and the heating problem.

Yeah but dont forget that v20f is for turkey and we are officially on v20d so as far as we go officially the issues arent solved for International/european models. And maybe lg releases v20f as v20e for us europeans, lets wait it out
I hope it will be 6.0.1

You can install V20f on the international version

One question:
If I'm rooted,will I get information for the new software and will I be able to update it or I must unroot it first?
Btw,I'm on V20d-EUR-XX...

You can flash it with LG UP.
H815, H815TR, H815L, H815P are all the same model which is H815

Flashed v20f TR on my H815 GBR version serial start 509 Sept 2015 and software showed up as V20-Opt2-HQ so back on V20D and will wait on official release for EU models.

Mine is from Portugal and before I flash 20f it was v20d-opt2 in factory version now is v20f-opt1..... Change the lte icon, volte don't work....I think because my provider don't support that feature.
I will keep this version because besides that I was mencion it works great!
Enviado do meu LG-H815 através de Tapatalk

I think when the actualization will be available, the official one will be shown for you (v20d → v20x for example) and nevermind if you are on v20f opt2 ...

Source plis

When I have had my LG G2 before I bought G4 it was same as I wrote. I flashed some KDZ and few days after that had been pushed an actualization for my model and the former LG PC suite offered me the update.

Can you add the source please?

If you are on stock firmware you'll be notified and will be able to update whether you are rooted or not (as long as you haven't disabled automatic checks). After the update you will have lost root.
Edit: welder73 a word of caution since many people don't realize that root and custom recovery are different things and you don't need one for the other: if you have installed a custom recovery and get notified about updates do not accept to install them (OverTheAir). Instead find a place to download the update and flash it using your custom recovery.

[KDZ][H815TR] New firmware V20h (Turkey) 2016-11-16

Hello everyone
Today LG released new version in Turkey,
This time the version is V20h
No custom boot animation
Security patch is for 2016-10-01
Android version: 6.0
No bloatware
In order to download you need to copy the URL, open new tab, paste URL and hit ENTER.
You can safley flash this KDZ on any H815/L/T/P/TR/AR device
Here is the download link:
http://tool.lime.gdms.lge.com/dn/do...FWFDH4N852QQA6K8F772XJA/H815TR20h_00_1027.kdz
Enjoy

It came with OTA NOW!. I am downloading. I will write battery life and performance after I used it two days later

I tested for three hours, As I noticed;
- Volte is activated officially. If you select lte from mobile section and activate volte, it shows "Volte" text near battery icon. I hope using Volte won't affect battery life. I hope...
- Performance is good. I think battery is better, it will be getting better as time passes by.
This is only differences for now. Official changelog says that latest new anroid security patches added and stability improved. Yes it includes 01/10 security patches. But I can't be sure about stability from now. It will take a week moderate usage and 2-3 recharge cycles.

I tried to flash it on my H815 but LGUP makes error 0x2000 and it stops at 9%. I downloaded two times to avoid any problems due to corrupted file.

I have downloaded it 3 times,and the same thing happened to me.

Same problem, Do you know where is problem and how to fix it on H815?

Same problem. Hope in we will solve the problem.

LG really screwed up the version numbering. I have v20i from France, theoretically it should be the latest one for Europe. Anything new for EU phones? I am not flashing this version.

H815 SEA supported as well ?

You know nothing about firmwares. This is for Turkey. Maybe you can flash this firmware on your phone but I am using H815TR version, so I have to flash this version due to customizations and our country's Network conditions. Go and flash v20i version if you use H815

I know enough about firmwares. LG should have kept the same version on all regions or at least LG should have called them v20H-Turkey or something. There was an issue at some point when some Rom developers took a Turkey Rom as base, then a newer EU Rom was released, but with a lower version (v20H was for Turkey, v20G was the EU one). I am not the only one complaining about the LG versioning system. Let us know how it behaves, we should get an EU Rom pretty soon.

Some info about october security patching for H815 maybe download link. My last is v20i France september security patching.

Don't stuck in Versioning. Coz LG releases different versions for countries. For H815 Europe version smartphone, you can flash latest version WITHOUT TR,SEA, etc. suffixed firmwares. Before flash firmware, Look for its latest security patch. If its security patch is up to date, you can flash freely. I really regret to buy Country based H815TR model. I can't unlock bootloader, I can't do anything about root.

And we dont know how to install it properly. Evetytime I try to install this verson, it shows the error at 9 %.

I think it shows error because ROM is locked only for H815TR devices.
I have a TWN device and it shows error on my device too. (LGUP)
Even though I had flashed previous TR ROM, it could not get update via OTA. Do not lose time by doing this.
It may cause because of VoLTE agreements between LG Turkey and TurkTelekom, Turkcell or Vodafone. Carriers want VoLTE to be used in only TR devices, I don't understand why.
If someone find a way to flash it (or get the update via OTA on a non-TR device somehow) please let me know. Thanks

Anyway we thank you for the KDZ.
EDIT: Oh, there is some purple logo, so yes, there is some branding.

I am adding some screens.
As you can see, there is a new option - wifi calling.
Edit: in hidden menu there is function VoLTE which finally doesn't show "not supported".

I also see that there has been released a new version for the SEA Asia SG/Singapore on the 2017-01-26 , called : H81520g_00_0118.kdz on http://lg-firmwares.com/download-file/?fileId=5322
Does anybody know if I can use this on My EUR version without any issues?? Has anyone tried it out? I am downloading it now at the same time as the Polish release.... would really like to have the wifi call option as that is available threw my operator

There shouldn't be any problems with flashing. Try to flash it and look at what's new. And even if it has WiFi calling like this poland version, VoLTE, patch level etc. But for me it is strange that this is 20g.
EDIT: Uhm, that SEA version id not able to flash for me. It shows some error at 9 %.

Hmmmmm the same happened to me to at 9%...
Trying the Polish one instead and will try download the AES version one more time or maybe someone else has the direct kdz link, maybe @AION has it ?
Really think We should have got Nougat by now, espesially after all the bootloop issues and s#it we G4 owners have had, just as a little sign of "goodwill" from LG :fingers-crossed:

H870ds taiwan updates?

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.
Sent from my LG-H870DS using XDA Labs

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.

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.

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.

Stuck in V10M-SEA-XX

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
