I have been using the v20 us996 for several months now, and it works quite well, but the last update received was back in January, and was curious to know about OTA firmware updates. Mine is still on the December 2106 update and after doing some research I found that some of the US996 phorne received an OTA update sometime in April. Is there a way to force my phone to receive the OTA update?
Or would I have to flash a KDZ of whatever the latest firmware is?

I believe the firmware the OP is referencing is U.S. Cellular v10h. I've seen users on Reddit running v10h on the US996 Unlocked with root and no issue.
How did you draw the conclusion that v10h precludes root on the 996?
I'm running 10f stock on factory unlocked US996 with root and all. No issues whatsoever.

Can you link me to where you got 10f for the 996?

Edit: just realized that the US Cellular version is newer in spite of an earlier publishing date. Nevermind.

anyone already updated theirs to 10i via OTA? can you share your impressions here.
since i've read the threads, most are about 10h and 10j.
i have received notification of 10i update 2days ago but can't update cos of root and i don't want to unroot cos i need root for now.
will share mine once imei tecnique will show 10i.kdz since that's the time i can update via lg mobile tool or lg pc suite without erasing my data and apps.

Got yesterday latest v10i update I thought those random reboots found in V10h update still remaining .
The curious thing is that happens every time at the same hour 12.55 some body faces something similar?
Would you recommend to install from scratch V10i in order to avoid such problems?
Thanks in advance ☺

TWRP is impossible for the TWN version at the moment. The only ones that can currently install TWRP are those with H815 that come from open European stock, which can have their boot loader unlocked via the official LG boot loader unlocking tool. Does not work with any other region's phones, even if you change software etc...it's based on IMEI and hardware ID which is uniquely coded to your device.
does this 10C version fix the knock code unlock? I still get miss unlocks when I use knock code on Polish 10D

Hi just wondering does this factory reset the phone? and is there any preferred method of flashing eg flashfire or via adb
ok so I got tired of waiting for my Polish 10D to be updated to 10E so I flashed this 10C TWN anyway since my phone is originally TWN
and I must say there is a significant improvement on the swiping as well as the Knock Unlock Code compared to the Polish 10D.
Also Stagefright fix is confirmed so the 10C TWN is definitely an improvement

If your phone is a TWN device, you should always stick to TWN updates. THis is the latest update for our device. As you said, it fixes Stagefright and fixes touch etc. This is equivalent to 10F on other Euro devices.

Hi!
Im new to the G4. I am from Austria and bought it online. I got following Version:
Factory Version
LGH815AT-00-V10c-TWN-XX-Aug-18-2015
SW Original Version
LGH815AT-00-V10c-OPT1-YT-Aug-18-2015
When I read right, this is the TWN Version and thats always one of the most new ones?
Would it eventought be possible to, for example, flash the EUR Open?
I'm asking because i got an Update for LG Health but not in german.
Thanks in advance!
my G4 received an OTA today (23/1/16). I'm in the Netherlands on vodafone network. the update came with a changelog that said: battery life improvements and improved google services compatibility. size was 37 mb and phone is updated to january 2016 security patch level... Anyone else receive this update?
no, GBR phone, neither OTA neither LG Bridge
Any .kdz?

Does the checking firmware from LG servers method work?

what was you version before OTA, 20A B or even C ?
I have a Romania based H815 that i got from Amazon and I'm still showing V10C
I am still on v20a, but I am rooted with a custom recovery. Do I need to go back to stock to install the OTA and then root and install the recovery back or can I do something simpler?

Can you please check if you can see photos on Google maps? I get blank spaces instead of images on my G4 20C
Isn't there a way to pull the OTA and flash via LGUP? As it has a FOTA option.

But in case I change my mind, you extract the update.zip and apply update from sdcard, right?

Probably be a good idea to hold off updating on this, especially if you cross-flashed just to make sure it doesn't break anything for the ATT version.

So i went ahead and updated using upgrade in LGUP and so far so good.
I cross flashed AWM oreo with ULM oreo using the LGUP 1.14 from thread cross flashed AWM Oreo with Korean Oreo. Then I refurbished the AWN with the latest ULM Pie. So far no problem.

How did you flash this firmware? I am on V350N20c_00_KT_KR_OP_0405.kdz and LGUP refused to cross flash this firmware. It failed at 5%.
What error message are you getting? Are you using the correct version of the LG UP? May be do an incremental upgrade (install previous ULM version then the newest) instead of jumping directly from KR version. Also, your download could be corrupt, may be download again. Be careful though, there are a few mentions of ppl bricking their phones due to experimenting around.
Edit: In my case, it was my spare AT&T V35 on AT&T stock 8.0 and i directly flashed the new 20E ULM version using refurbish option.

No. You can't use Uppercut on anything past Nougat. Uninstall it and never speak of it again.
To flash firmware you want Dev Patched LGUP.
