LG G6 Unlocked Version US997 Software Update - LG G6 Questions and Answers

I got a software update today from LG. Anybody know what is in this update? Software version is US99717a. Android version is still 7.0, so it is obviously not Oreo.

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.

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.

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."...

Moto G5 Plus Updates

Has this phone received ANY updates? When I run Motorola's update through the Android Settings app, I'm told the phone is up-to-date, but the phone is still running Android 7.0 with a 1/1/17 security patch... is this some kind of joke?
My updates are from September. Not sure what's going on with your updates. You can manually update via fastboot or TWRP if you aren't getting them...

How do I do this?
The UK finally got the May security patch a week or so ago and when i asked Moto UK about updates they were a little terse with their answer.
I have loved my Moto phones since owning a Moto Defy but i have been looking at Nokia handsets and they seem very good for the money and with the promise of timely updates.
There's a thread in here somewhere with all the firmware links for TWRP. Those are all flashable if you have it. If not, there's another thread with fastboot firmware. Just gotta find which you need and get cracking
Hello,
I bought my phone on Ocotber 2017 and i haven't received any updates yet. My latest security patch are from August 2017.
Is this normal?
Thank you

Yes, I believe the August 1st security patch, Android 7.0 is the latest update for the US variant. Build number is NPN25. 137-83.
I got mine from Amazon UK and it's on the august patch.
It's dual SIM, that might make a difference?
I have the Amazon Prime exclusive version (U.S. XT1687) with 7.0 (NPN25.137-83), Security Patch 8/1/2017

Yep. I'm on RETUS and that is the latest version.
i am using Indian variant and having 1st November 2017's security update.
Can anyone drop the link to download august build stock rom for xt1686
Hello, thanks for the feedback.
5 months without any security update, that's a lot of time.
Mine is on reteu, NPNS25.137-33-11.
Just talked to motorolla on the chat and they said that don't know when the next security patch will be available. For a phone that has release last year on February, the support/updates should be more active. A little bit disappointed with that.

H870s update

Lg h870s is stuck on july scurity update and v10f software version. Is it normal? And when it will get oreo?
It's not normal since all unlocked tops are at least with September patch, and Oreo is expected in these months, so, who knows, only LG does...
H870 users stuck on V10T with july patches. As rumored, Oreo 8.0 could arrive between november and december.
Devices from other brands, even older, have already received october patches but, apparently, LG does so well! Very disappointed: /
The same for h870. v10t and july patch. The only thing i hate on lg is the update ..
If you do a bit of searching there is an 11b firmware update kdz for Mexico that is at the October security patch level. Works fine on the EU H870 and fixes the Blueborne vulnerability.
The krack vulnerability is still there so hopefully some other country gets the November patches soon

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.
Lg g6 updates

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.

If you plug your phone into the computer and use LG Bridge to update error recovery does it download the 20a KDZ?

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.
Ironically...AT&T
I expect you will see it soon.

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.
