LG G6 H870 updates? - LG G6 Questions and Answers

I recently bought an unlocked lg g6 H870 eu version.I tried to update but it says that i am on the latest firmware although it says i have the july security patch.
Is this the latest update in Europe or what?

Yes, european G6 stucks on V10T firmware with july patch. Great work LG! :/

For LG G6 H870 you sure ? European variant and you was on 10t before can you take screenshot in about phone ?

10u is the last update i saw. i had some issues with my H870 and i flashed stock 10T with uppercut. When i connected it to LGUP, it showed another updated(10u) ready for download. I didn't had the patience to wait for it, as the server was really slow,but still...lg keeps delivering updates until oreo arrives.

Bro im on 10t from so much time i have h870 to and i try with lg bridge but show me im on latest update... You sure you have h870 ? You can have h870ds

It can't be because my h870 for europe is on july security patch and i tried with lg bridge and nothing.I think we have to wait untill 8.0 comes to us or idk.

I have 10u. This is on my lg g6 (H870) bought from orange. In FW info show v10u-ORG-MCV. 10u has security patch from 1.august. Nothing new when connect to lg bridge.

I got v11d OTA but I'm holding off on installing until I hear more feedback from people.

Flash it, you won't regret. Standby battery drain and camera are way better than on 10t.

Can you be more specific about the camera?
Have they fixed oversharpening?

I used to have some kind of watercolor effect which is now gone, I don't know if that's what you mean. Plus, the front camera has improved A LOT.

OK I took the plunge and updated to v11d Oct 21. So far battery life seems excellent and I have not noticed any overheating of the device. Performance also seems fine.
Can't say I've noticed anything obvious about the main front facing camera-- still slightly washed out look with blowing out of highlights like before.
Shutter does seem a little quicker.
Haven't run into any new features (yet).

LG V20 H990ds software update?

Guys I have the LG-H990ds V20 model and I always check from time to time for system updates. I'm starting to get frustrated since no updates are showing anymore. It shows that my last update was on January 2 and the software version is V10d-AME-XX. I think that newer versions are being released, but why am I not receiving any of them? Is there some other way to update my V20 to a newer version?
I don't really understand how things work here, if anyone can please explain the situation?

SEA variants of 990ds just got their update couple of weeks ago with march or april security patch. TWN, AME and ESA are stupidly stuck on December and January security patch. mine is V10e-ESA december was the last update. LG was bragging about this phone to be the first non nexus device to launch with Nougat (yeah right) but its the most unupdated phone with Nougat installed. Most OEMs are providing proper updates to their device but LG, nahhh. their too busy with their G6 now

This is complete non-sense sadly... They should seriously give some space for the v20. I'm really liking it more and more everyday, but I always discover new bugs as I continue to use it and that really irritates me(Camera lag in general/Sudden delays overall in home screen, app switching etc.). As much as I love this phone, I'm really hating LG for not giving it the right updates . Come on LG!!
I am in the same boat. I think its the best phone I owned. I came from an oppo who are poor on updates. I did not expect LG to lag with updates as well.
Same issue here guus
I am on AME variant and stuck on December updates
The phone is a beast in all ways
Major draws : battery life and S/W updates

I did not get a answer at all
Yeah my response was from tech support, no response from LG security group yet. They have escalated to another department. I did give them this article.
http://m.androidcentral.com/these-are-phones-receive-regular-security-patches-according-google
you guys can check updates here. ESA version should be rollingout today
http://devtester.ro/projects/lg-firmwares/#imei
Well I plugged it in to the "LG Bridge" looks there is an update is good news. The bad news is I get the error "The update cannot be downloaded because there was a problem with the server". Cancel and try again . Try again on two different computers both with the same issue.
update is currenty not available for OTA. LG server is down. ESA variant here
Thanks. I will try again tomorrow.
Wonder if the H990N will get updated soon too. Granted, mine has the February security update.
Sent from my LG-H990 using Tapatalk
I wonder with Android why they cant just push out security updates as they come out across all builds like Windows. Is there a lot of testing needed?
update is now available v10g
Fyi the LG server is down still. Tried a different network. Dyepnoodle could you install it?
H990ds (AME) OTA still not available, I'll try on LG bridge.
Update available on LG bridge.
Could not install it because LG bridge tells me that "The update cannot be downloaded because there was a problem with the server."...

LG G6+ US997U kdz or updates

Hi, any ideas who needs to provide system update or original firmware to LG G6+ US997U? (Amazon or LG USA?)

As it is not carrier specific I would think LG.

But Lg says the opposite:
"For the unlocked version, software updates will be coming from the current carrier of the device as well. They will be the one who is going to send the updates to you OTA."
My current carrier, not selling G6 phones. Therefore they will not provide updates for Amazon G6+. (specially not in Europe)
The phone's fw. is 10A quite old.
So I'm searching owners of LG G6+ US997U live in USA.
Still no updates from amazon.

Don't thinks so.
I currently own this device and I just received an update today February 27th it was 500 megabytes download and it had the December Android security patch
This update would make me think maybe, just maybe, we will get Oreo update too... Hope so.
I love this device but it certainly would be even better with Oreo. Let's hope so.

What carrier are you on? I still haven't received it and I"m wondering if AT&T is the problem since they don't technicaly support this model.

Been out of town... Will see if I can do it this week.
what is the correct model number for the LG G6+US model
LG G6+ US997U = is this correct?
Am interested in getting back onboard w/ LG after my time with Axon7. But need version for TMo & the quad DAC.
NVM, indeed it is .
Sorry for the noob question, it's probably been asked on here, but have not been able to find a solid answer. I have a US Cellular LG G6, which by now I know bootloader can't be unlocked. But, is there any way to update to Android Oreo? Currently on Android Nougat 7.0. thanks in advance.

Lg G6 thinQ

I dont think so... maybe, I get a 'dark enviornent' moon thing in the corner, but nothing else seems to be changed (I don't use the camera very much)
You would think they would let you know of the changes and how improved they are. I mean, they put in the effort to add them. I wish I knew what exactly it was that is now better
I just saw a video of us model running on oreo and june security patch.
Whats really interesting is the camera app identical to G7 thinQ's.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6AvfM_MbqJE
If someone can extract and upload Lg G6 thinQ caera app it whoud be great
I dont get this Company, some Phones of the same Model get a completly new Camera App and some not? Ah its like, some have only 32gb 64gb and qdac or QI in their Countries availabe.

LG G6 H870DSU HKG 20d OTA

Just downloaded and installed. The phone got finally ThinQ features and boot screen logo. Security level 1st August.
Same here on my H870DS SEA :good:
V20d-AUG-10-2018
Seems like the new LG Upgrade Center wants to make a good Job. We're still in August and get now August Security Patch.
My H870DS is now on v20D-twn-xx. If you have a Computer, download the Update over Bridge, because OTA was superslow (millions of Phones in the same Time)

The same here for my TWN H870DS (downloading started more than 8h hours ago), while LG Bridge says my phone is Updated (the inverse happened with the first Oreo update, OTA my phone was updated and had to use LG Bridge).
Guys I updated my phone as well. I can see bright camera mode but don't see AI camera. Is it same for everyone?
PS: OTA was very slow. Only 40% downloaded in about 8-9 hours. LG Bridge took 5-10 mins to download 2.8GB firmware.

Affirmative of the above that the LG Bridge software update "downgrades" the software version from Oreo to Nougat and brings back security patch for October 1st 2017...
It indicates that there are 2 available when you check but upon the completion of the first update, it wipes your phone clean.
Thank god, my G6 is a backup phone... version H870DS users take note. Don't use the LG Bridge to upgrade if your G6 is your primary device!

If you can connect it to LG Bridge, isn't there a link in the right bottom of the "Software Update" menu to "Recover from update error" (not that all names where translated from the Portuguese language of my LG Bridge).

Hi. Anyone able to put the PIE Camera apk on here for the LG G6. I updated it foolishly from the apkmirror site hoping to get the G7 camera and the Standard/Wide angles are reversed and not working properly. I should be able to install over this one like I did with the newer LG Camera Apk.

So now I can confirm that changing a region is also an option
Two days ago I have successfully flashed (using LGUP+UPPERCUT -> UPGRADE option) other region (HKG) on my LG G6+ (H870DSU).
The firmware was H870DSU30a_00_OPEN_HK_DS_OP_0920.kdz and all works right after the flash, but for better performance I did also hard reset.

Nice but not allways is going to work i flashed some time ago android 7 indian version on my hkg and was not working
just to share, a week ago got update on my G6 870 in Bulgaria on A1 (ex mtel) operator.
so I was really pleased with the stability of the phone, got it with Android 6.x, than different stable upgrades, now with 9 is a bit slow. Did wait for a week, and today did master reset to be sure it is not bulk giving the issue, it is not. It is the release. First time disappointed by LG, but still a supporter
good luck
