LGUS997 16b - LG G6 Questions and Answers

I noticed on lg-firmwares that 16b was posted today (Dec 28). Anybody update yet? Changes?

I've updated. Looks to be the December security patch. I haven't noticed any other details.

Did you get an OTA, use LG Bridge, or LGUP?

I downloaded the kdz and used Uppercut and LGUP.

Just updated with Uppercut and LGUP...

Anyone else experiencing play services and gmail crashing all of the time? Still occurs in safe mode, so I'm perplexed.
Did a fresh install of 16b, and this issue keeps plaguing me (same thing kept happening on 16a)

I've had no issues with mine.

H815 TWN receives V10e

Hey guys, i''ve received 50MB V10e OTA.
probably one before the V20 Marshmallow
Got It As well
Just searched for the update as soon as I saw this post, which is now. So downloading now. I'm curious to what has been changed.
Mmm. Most disappointing when waiting patiently for the official Marshmallow update for my TWN device.
Doesn't suggest that we will be receiving it any time soon.
Received as well for SEA variant
Anybody on the TWN version found a rooted image for v10E? Right now I've got a rooted V10D on mine and OTA doesn't install. Any suggestions?

You have to remove root via SuperSU settings, then install the update using LG Bridge.
Once I get the update on mine (hopefully today) I'll root the image and upload for others to use.
EDIT: Got the update - I'll root the image and upload it. Will post a link here when it's done.
Here's the pre-rooted 10E system image. Flash as normal

Yes, that's the size of the system image. Always has been.

Noticed any clear improvements in V10E??
Might be placebo but I have less stutter...noticeably less. Seems most apparent when typing with Google keyboard.
The marshmallow update has been released today. Via LG Bridge you can download it right now!

Nice but without a way to root MM yet (for locked bootloader) I can't see me using it yet.

As far as I can tell now, it is pretty cool. I had to wipe all data anyway, because I had my phone rooted before, but the new permissionmanagement is really nice. The new battery-saving function which shuts down apps automatically is a bit confusing.
I have this but no idea what's different

That's not for the TWN device, which is what this thread is for.
Apologies..please delete
Just received a TWN G4 with 10b installed. Any reason not to use this to gain root?

I would update with OTA up to 10E first, then root.

Any way to root the T-Mobile model on 10i firmware?

I didn't update through OTA, was done through Uppercut. Still have the NRD90M Build number, not sure if that matters. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've searched the forums but maybe im not looking in the right places?
Whats the security patch date.
It would still be 90M if you had taken the OTA. LG releases incremental updates within builds for security patches and bug fixes which change the software versions i.e. from 10d to 10i. Currently, there is no way to root 10i. Interestingly enough, 10i is roll-back friendly, so if a TOT or KDZ (think of them as Google Factory Images to flash) existed of 10d (and an official one, the only kind you can flash properly to rollback, doesn't!) you could flash it and be able to root.

90M wouldn't matter in this case. If its security patch Dec. 1 it would most likely still work. Sprint came out with ZV5 and its Dec.1 dirtycow still works. Meaning Recowvery would work. The dirtycow patch is Dec. 5
The question is. Has anyone actually TRIED?

The update was put out specifically to patch the dirty cow exploit. It was released on the 21st, and while I haven't personally tried recowvery on I myself, I'm sure it won't work.

Are you on 10i? If so just give it a shot. worst case scenario nothing happens and you waste 5 minutes. best case you get root. We on sprint thought the same thing. Our ZV5(Dec.1 patch) update wasn't released until like the 15th.

You're right, it still works. I'm not really sure why everyone was reporting that it patches the exploit, but in any case, recowvery still works on 10i. Here's hoping an official TOT or KDZ comes out for rollback purposes when it eventually does get patched!

Yea... It was the same case on our update. We all thought it patched it and no one was doing it. One random person said he tried and it worked.
Congrats on your reroot!
whaa? anyone else able to confirm recowvery on 10i works?

How did you guys get the update? I'm still on 10D and my system says I'm up to date.
Same here. "up to date". For the first time I actually want to try an update and I can't get it. lol

I did it via the 10i KDZ file and using LGUP and Uppercut. I had no choice i bricked my phone and lost twrp in the process. It was the only way to restore it.
I updated to 10i with LG Bridge and I grabbed the required .dll for LGUP, and I ran dirty cow again (you must use manual method), put SuperSU into the memory card.
I successfully entered TWRP and rooted 10i.

Folks usually attribute this to the phone being reset and such. I've noticed no difference.
That security patch prevents rooting.
13A root does not work either. Static screen, cant see anything.
Once i restore old boot backup, there is no root.
I received... 15a... 16b... 17a... and... 18 ... the size of 17a is around of 800 mb and... 18a 70mb

I just registered to say I just got the update myself.
I was so hoping for 7.1.1 (sigh)

Interesting. I checked System Update and it shows nothing after the Oct 2018 security patch.

Has anyone been able to snag the 20g KDZ? I am trying to force it, but TMO thinks my phone is up to date with 20f.
EDIT: well, I was able to get the update_s.zip and 20g is still ARB01 which is good.
I am working on hacking together an update.zip that will be flashable in TWRP until someone can find the KDZ.
