My sea variant finally got an ota update to MM (20C) this evening.
Tempting... Except for the part about losing root
How did you root it? I am on build v20b, and i haven't gotten the update yet either.

Actually - I'm still on LP with 10f. I checked LG Bridge several times and have never seen an update, and this is the first time I've seen it on OTA. Just thought I'd mention the fact that the OTA update is out there now for those that haven't noticed yet.

You can't root MM on the G4 unless you have an unlocked bootloader.
I didn't get 20c Ota but I got it when I used lg bridge
I don't know what is the problem with LGBridge, but the speed is low as hell. I have a 20 mbps internet speed connection and it has been downloading for more than 2 hours.
Always the same with every update.
Well it's that time again VZW put out a new OTA anyone taken this yet what does it fix and is it worth it and I think all of us will be wondering is will it lock your bootloader Its unlocked
Me too, I got an OTA notification today, update size is 823.5 MB, don't know what build it is.
I have VZ Pixel, unlocked, stock rooted NMF260 with VZ service. Is it safe to install updates ? Please advice.
Thanks in advance.

I think your safe I doubt Verizon would lock your bootloader. That would wipe your device again
@Shiftydogit, @azn6929 got hold of a screenshot? If yes, pls share.
As you can see OTA notification
My guess is it's probably another patch or possibly a kernel update who knows or bug fix one of the three
Here it is

Might as well just do it lmao
So one of you said you are on nmf260. That is December. So i doubt this is a "new" update, you are just behind. Google only releases on the first Monday of the month. VZ uses the same exact releases. There is no special VZ version.
Update away.

Holy cow, they are two months behind. I had no idea, that is nuts. It is the exact same as the Google December update, FWIW.

That's the crazy part. It is the exact same as what Google released in December. The Pixel's are different...they are only using Googles updates. No changes, no bloat, no nothing.

Then us VZW users may want to start checking Google for updates instead of waiting for VZW OTAs

They are at the link below, posted the first Monday of each month. Dunno how you get them on an unlocked phone, I know it is doable...just dunno how.
https://developers.google.com/android/ota
EDIT: LOL, I'm an idiot. The instructions are right at the top of the page I linked to.

You'd just download them then sideload the OTA via recovery or you can flash it via fastboot/ADB but if you have TWRP installed fastboot will replace it with stock recovery
OK so with update my phone lost TWRP and root other than that bootloader is still unlocked and everything seems fine
Also build number changed after update OK then
If you are getting a new Verizon OTA, it is late. My Verizon Pixel updated to NOF26V (Feb security patch), weeks ago. NOF26V is the most current image for Verizon Pixels.
I updated. New build is NOF26V. Everything seems to be fine. But root is gone. lol
So at the time of this post, my phone is currently downloading a 1215.98 MB update. Comsidering my last update was only 300 MB, I assume this is nougat. My phone is a k425. I'LL report back once the download is done (which might be a bit; all this weather is killing our internet)
And here's a screenshot for those who are skeptical.
Well the updates almost done; ill report back once I've installed it
Nougat is out for the k425

Wow. We are waiting for all other models too.
I can also confirm this but with one issue if you use the att go phone version you will not be able to update for a few days as there putting priority on people that have this phone and are under contract. You can work around this by finding a friend and use his sim card as long as there a contract att member to get the update on your phone then switch back after the update. This is only for a few days as the people that are under contract get it first. Sigh

It's a good thing that we can build "Lineage OS 14.1" without any hassle.

The update is only for t moile and att variants; it seems like they basically paid lg to have them help build this update, so people continue to buy this phone, and not waste so much money on lost sales.
Anyone on MetroPCS get this update?
LG K10 T-MOBILE GOT NOUGAT!
Wow! Thanks! Just checked my phone and got the update.
It's really good news for lg k10 user, But When we will receive nougat update for k10 430dsy?

Dude, seriously? About 5 out of your 15 posts are asking about nougat for k430dsy, and 5 about rooting it, stop spamming.
Nobody here knows when or even will k430dsy get nougat, because LG won't say anything.
MetroPCS got it, too.
Battery life is notebly worse after install; after clearing cache about a week or two after install helped it improve
woot
AT&T your update process really bad finally after a month and a half They really need to stop all this release in batches crap with updating it easy just allow people with a valid sim to download the update. No if we can just root lg-k425 and nougat be great. Any one know of a easy way to copy the firmware with out root?

not needed. Firmware is available for download online.
Can Someone make a Stock Rom for the VS995 for TWRP
or point to a guide that allows you to update to the latest system files and security patches.
Verizon started rolling out Vs99519A recently and for what ever reason I cant update my system past (15a) and keep root using kdz writer
Still waiting on the kdz for 19a. AlphaRom is close to stock and it's built off 18a
i95swervin said:
As far as I know there is no public kdz file for vs995 19a. If you see one let me know, I'll build it.
You can update to my rom its based off of stock vs995 18a.

Thanks for doing that. I know that is probably a pain considering the 19A KDZ isn't out yet. Looking forward to it!

Yes, last night, Happy Valentine's Day to me and my phone!
So far the update appears as "Mostly Harmless" it's billed as security fixes.
After installing the phone didn't melt, brick, explode, rip, snort, farkle nor fall apart so, again, "Mostly Harmless."
I updated yesterday also, and can not find anything new or different? Other than my phone is really slow for about 10 minutes after the update/reboot, then it runs fine.
Not much info on the internet other than security update.
Still no antirollback on this latest update (VS9951AA)???
Just received an update tonight from Verizon.
Running Alpha 1aa....I blocked the update just passing the info along.
If you have went along with installing the Oct, 2018 update, and you have a Sprint variant, but you have service with another carrier, please report here your experience. Thanks a lot.

Best of luck my friend. It seems as though it should go well, but Sprint and Essential seem to be desperate to patch this situation.
Oktober Update
Developer Settings/ Essential Noch-Settings
Set default for all applications
Set per application
I record an unintentional reboot of the system after this update, but otherwise ist all stable and OK here in Austria.
I have the sprint one and everything works fine. Consistently.
No issues here. Update took longer to install than I expected, but everything working fine on my end (straight talk/at&t sim)

backed up my data. grabbed Oct 2018 OTA from Essential's site
rebooted in recovery, sideloaded OTA
after reboot, SIM still unlocked
I can't speak for downloading the OTA from the phone itself, but the above steps worked for me
I flashed via BTS, and twrp + magisk. Then I found I lost wifi. Cannot start WIFI.
Also, I uses TWRP-SEP.img. Or I will have no touch. Any hint?
very smooth battery life improved very slightly mostly standby time and speaker min volume has decreased quiet a bit which is a very nice change and now we even got notch settings which is pretty dope in my opinoin
i was hoping notch settings would fix wabbitemu's incompatibility, but it didnt.

If you're already on September, update and you're not "simlocked" you should be fine updating to Oct, build. I have a Sprint variant, and I have service through T-Mobile. After I updated to September, build I got "simlocked". Thanks to the XDA modem swop, I unlocked my device, and updated to September, build without issues.
The only problem I am having after updating to September, build, is after attempting to root my device. I lose the ability to connect to WiFi. But after re-flashing my device fastboot, I am able to connect WiFi. Anybody else?
I have the unlocked version, but am using Sprint. Still waiting for the October update. Or new cables to arrive so I can sideload it. Whichever comes first. (Just got this phone Monday. It's my first USB c device. Ah, the new accessories to invest in too...)
Any changelog or improvement?
Hi there i have the unlocked sprint variant, im on pie so it is safe to update to the oct update? I heard the locking problems on september update. Thanks for your time

If you have service through another carrier other than Sprint, and you have a Sprint variant, Essential Phone, and you haven't updated to September, update, but you would like to update to October, update, I wouldn't update to October update.
But if you have already updated to September, update, without issues? You should be fine updating to October.
If you ultimately want to update, and you unfortunately get "sim-lock" ? There are very credible fixes available in the threads of XDA for the essential phone to unlock the notorious SIM lock issue. Good luck!
Hi there I just updated to october update from Android Pie realese and I have a sprint variant PH1 unlocked and still fully unlocked. It is working great. Now I just need root it again. Thanks for all the support
