G6 Updates - LG G6 Questions and Answers

Good day everyone, I think it would be nice if this would serve as the main thread upon which we may discuss existing and future updates for the device instead of creating separate discussions for every update. A thread that will be the collection of news and other info such as changes or added features regarding the updates so it will be easy to find for owners who are keen on learning what each updates do to the phone.
P.S If there is any site which already does this for the G6 or LG has an official one like this then please inform me. Thanks

Ohh I see though this only provides downloads of firmwares without discussions or additional info. My idea is a thread where we can discuss noticeable changes with every update and will serve as a reference for others who wish to learn more about each update.

It doesn't provide all' download but in page i've linked you can see all the ota (and not) for which device, and which nation updated every 6 hours
For further information you have to see the changelog during the update trough ota and/or LG Bridge.

OTAs do not list a comprehensive explanation of update changelogs and what I mean is hopefully this thread will serve as a user discussion thread about their observations every update.

Thank you for telling us for the 3rd time. Next time please read before you create yet another thread.
Doesn't anyone check the main thread section to see if something is already posted before posting it again? Damn, people really need to stop seeking attention and actually check things up before doing something.
Does anyone who complains about these threads actually report them to the mods as well as filling up the threads with complaint posts?
Click on the small orange triangle in the top right of the post and report it, the mods are not Gods, they rely on us users to report posts/threads to them for them to maintain.
In this case, I have already reported this thread

Lollipop ROMs

I'm creating this thread for people to post about new Lollipop custom ROMs, updated custom ROMs, or, when it comes, stock Lollipop ROM zips.
This thread is not for discussions and news, so no moto chat posts, no online article posts, nothing like that. This thread is only for what I stated in the first paragraph. Saying the soak test started, or the update is coming next week or that you got the update etc is not for this thread. And please don't post that you can't wait, we already know that.
The point of this thread is so people don't need to search through 20 threads to find info on how to get Lollipop, either stock or custom ROMs.
Also, please don't tell people off for irrelevant posts, because that clutters the thread even more, leave that to me and the mods.

This one's from SeannyM. S/He said he doesn't really have time to work on it, he just wanted to try it out; so I guess it's discontinued. But a big thanks for being the first one to publish a Lollipop ROM for our phone.

The point is that it's one place where people can know about updates, so they don't need to constantly check the development section to see if there's a new ROM or if a ROM has been updated.
Either way, read the OP again, your post doesn't belong here.

You can either use chainfire CF-Auto-Root for XT1032 however it states the Android version is 4.4.2 - if it doesn't work on 4.4.4 post your recovery.img on the main CF-Auto-Root XDA thread
http://download.chainfire.eu/597/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-falconumts-falconreteu-xt1032.zip
Or
You can try flashing the supersu beta zip in a custom recovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133
For either method you need an unlocked bootloader but the first one doesn't require a custom recovery as it's done via pc

It might be a good idea to ask this in a multirom thread or start a new thread, this thread is not about using multirom.

Sorry for this off-topic first and foremost to everyone here.
For your information, the OP has no power/privileges to delete any posts of his thread. He can only edit the First post and his own posts. that's it. All other powers are in hands of Moderators.
Secondly, to the OP here. I dunno whether you are mentioning me twice and my thread to avoid the spammers on your thread OR to conclude my thread was inferior. Whatever the point was, but for smoother going and rather sound humiliating, i'd request you to remove my mentions and handle your thread the way you like to.

I removed any mention of you and your thread as per your request.
And I definitely didn't mention your thread to say it's inferior, I was just worried that people would just think this thread is the same idea as yours, and I just started it because your one was closed, so I just wanted to say that it's a different thread for a different purpose.
And the second mention of your thread was to avoid spammers.
But you definitely have a right to request not to be mentioned, so I edited to OP.

Help needed. Can't update to 2.2.1 because phone is rooted

I rooted the phone and now can't update to the latest version Oxygen 2.2.1 automatically
Is there any way around the problem?
If you have rooted your phone, you probably also have replaced the original recovery with twrp. In that case, just download the 2.2.1 ota zip from the ota thread in this forum and flash it manually in twrp.

Yes there is a way around: search. Because this question has been answered BILLION AND BILLION times. Even if you are a new to XDA, you should know there is rules. You should know there is a search bar located in top right of your screen. There is a index on this forum which gives you link to @Spannaa's thread where he groups all OTA and Stock ROMs + a tutorial to update when you're root. I gave you all information needed.

I agree to him, you do not need to be rude, this community is about helping others so it is not a big deal if you typed the solution. If you look at it , it would have taken less less words than the long comments which you posted.
HOW THE HECK COULD YOU NOT FIND IT. You obviously didn't didn't search very hard my son
I concur,no way he searched.. it's always 1 of the 5 under OnePlus 2 general.
The fact that OP had his phone rooted indicates he probably has some basic knowledge of unlocking bootloader, flashing recoveries/ROMs..etc and therefore should be resourceful look up the solution himself be it on XDA or not. The point is with an easy, and somewhat obvious solution to such a common problem (tbh I too had this exact same issue when I first got the phone, but I knew then I had to do a manual flash) surely people will get frustrated when asked.

I agree we are here to help, but come on, a question that has been answered so many times, in many threads, doesn't deserves one more topic. It reminds me the fingerprints problem on CM13 when it didn't work yet: it was about 2 or 3 question about it per page: "is fingerprint working???", "does fingerprint working". Come on, there is search function, so why don't use it ? Imagine if we create a thread every time we have a problem with our device but this problem has already been solved. Imagine state of the forum after all those threads. And yeah, as said above, if this man as his phone rooted, well, I think he has some basics knowledge about OnePlus Two.

how can root oppo reno z?

The bootloader on the OPPO Reno Z is unfortunately fully locked the only way to root would be through exploiting the recovery mode's update script or through some other form of exploit, but no unfortunately there is no way to root the Reno Z as of now.
That's sooo sad because it's a really amazing phone.
With root could be one of the best on the market (at this price).
Always fingers cross for an exploit ;p

the raw potential this phone will have with a custom rom is going to be insane
BUT... first and last time I buy OPPO! Update are ridiculous!
They just notify their "QUOTE" update release on Twitter and basically only to India/Asian countries...
That's huge discrimination...
Old thread, but I've found a guide and it directly links to a build of TWRP that says it's for the Reno Z. Should I bite the bullet and see if it works?
P.S. Magisk and DM-verity don't need to be compiled for specific devices, do they? Also will orange-state be much of a problem?

General [ROM]Nothing OS ROM Dump

Device: Nothing Phone 1
Source: https://dumps.tadiphone.dev/dumps/nothing/spacewar
Reserve 1
Initial Opinion:
The Dump has TWRP sourcecode. So phone might come with TWRP recovery. Also the Recorder app works in any Android phone. Camera too works in other phones but only Video.

The dump is generated with dumpyara, which runs twrpdtgen on the dumped original boot/recovery image; the resulting tree isn't part of the original, and isn't complete / immediately ready to use either.
@Vishal P
I've changed this thread from [Development] to [General]. As per the stickied guide at the top of each forum section, called "[Info] Guide to Nothing Device Forums (Please Read before Posting)":
[Development]
What's prefixed this way:
Publications and releases of your own development (ROMs, kernels, recoveries, etc.; for exact rules for creating such threads, please refer to Post #2 and Post #3 below)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Post #3 of that thread:
Threads Prefixed by [Development]
This prefix is exclusively reserved for ROMS, Kernels, Recoveries etc. provided they are your own development.
Try to keep the development threads clean. No off-topic posting and no question prefixed with [Development].
Use the report button in the lower left corner of an offending post to let us mods know we need to take action. Don't take matters into your own hands.
Sources need to be posted for all kernels. They're also needed for all ROMs where license demands it. Please refer to Post #2 above for more on this.
You need to use tags in the thread title, like [ROM], [KERNEL], etc. throughout XDA. Please refer to Post #4 below for more on this.
Any disputes between developers should be handled by PM; always try to solve the issue amicably first via PM. No public posting in a development thread regarding these matters.
ROM issues should be discussed within their respective threads.
Thread titles should always coincide with ROMS already available for download. No advance notification of incoming ROM through thread titles/placeholder threads is allowed. A changelog for the yet unreleased ROM can be included in the OP or in another post clearly marked as expected changelog.
All threads prefixed with [Development] that are NOT about one's own development may be closed or deleted. Posters that will choose to disregard these guidelines will be infracted.
Click to expand...

Since this thread isn't about your own development, I've changed the prefix to [General].
Thanks! Any questions, PM me, please.
