LG V20 (VS995) Unlocked. Any way to update to Oreo? - LG V20 Questions & Answers

As the title says, I was wondering if there's a way to update to Oreo on an unlocked phone. Or will I have to root it?
Currently using PagePlus as the carrier.
Thanks.

You could try pulling the sim and connect to wifi and try the update

I tried this and it said no updates available.
The VZW Utility Application has a security update available (I'm currently on Dec 2016.) I'm assuming this has nothing to do with an OS update?

Probably not, but if you can take that update it would be a good idea. If you don't get the Oreo ota you'll have to wait for a kdz or a stock zip.

how did you "delete" the radio? this wouldnt have happened unless you dd the modem in the 1st place,
have you tried flashing a stock rom ive made then doing a prl and profile update?
or ##update#in the dialer?
I haven't managed to screw this up so im not sure how you did lol
Actually sounds like he flashed the t mobile ROM with the modem

if you flash that on any other model you WILL BRICK. The modem firmware is part of where the antirollback is implemented.

A. Curious Where'd you pull that from? There arn't kdz readily available for it.
B. That, especially an oreo one (since its known ARB 1), is a dangerous thing to share, since it will brick anything that's not an LS997 because ARB (which was enabled in the LS997 several updates before oreo).

Everybody is looking for a way.. Your best bet is research and waiting.. I'm looking at older methods and also the g6 method.

AFAIK, there's no roor exploit available for lg v20 oreo yet. You can try flashing alpha omega rom oreo. VS995 is one of their supported devices.

First you'll need to downgrade, root via dirty santa, then flash the patched oreo rom or alpha rom version

Baseband

Is there a radio / baseband update for this phone?
What is the newest version out?
Thx in advance.
Sent from my PH-1 using Tapatalk
Any baseband, radio, or modem update will be included in the monthly updates and they did make changes in February for sure. Unsure if the following updates also included updates.

I'm trying to find a guide on how or where the modem file is and how to flash it... I'm rooted with twrp however, I don't see a guide or thread on update Radios / modem.

It should have upgraded when you flashed April stock? Flash the latest from here using the flash all .bat and you'll be good.

ARB hasn't been incremented on the 996

Does that mean that I can try 20f and go back to 10d if it uses too much battery?
