Software update notification just received

Just got a software update notification on my G5. I don't see any version number or details, anyone else get the notification?

I just got it, did the update, and was wondering the same. I was hoping to get a surprise android 7 update. I guess it would be too much to ask for LG or any manufacturer to release an update with an android version released 6 months ago.
The one good thing I can say about apple. When they release an update it gets pushed out. They dont let the manufacture and then the carrier finger f#%^ it for a year before making it available.

AT&T update also
I also just got the update, in fact it's still installing ... Phone nows says Android Version 6.0.1, Kernel 3.18.20, Build MMB29M Software version H82011n ... no idea yet what is different

I just got the notification. I'm not installing it as long as the phone doesn't forcefeed it, that last H82011K buggered my phone pretty bad and it gives me flashbacks of bootloops and factory resets now when an update pops up.

It will force it, I had a notification that I couldn't get rid of. And since the hopes of getting root are very low I decided to just go with it.

AT&T has finally started rolling out the long-awaited Android 7.0 Nougat update to its variant of the LG G5.
---------- Post added at 03:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:29 AM ----------
Currently downloading the update now.

Yep just got the update on my phone.

It has been a week and have gotten the notification twice and been unable to download it on the Wi-Fi network I was on. Now I don't get it at home and even when I set the clock ahead it says android is up to date. What gives?

It's only too bad Nougat is so greedy for battery. Look at that - 37 minutes screen on and I'm down to 48% left. Awful.
Not worth the upgrade IMO.

1.) Return to the USA, power down your phone and insert your active AT&T Sim card.
2.) Power your phone on and then go to settings>general>about phone>software update.
3.) Press "update now" and wait for update to finish.
Since you aren't yet on the H82011N firmware, you will have to repeat step 2-3 until you are on H82011N, before you can finally update to Nougat, which is H82020J.
:good:

Can anyone here provide an OTA file for the Nougat update?

I've been looking for a way to capture the actual file myself. Apparently it's impossible for the AT&T G5 because the bootloader is locked and no root is possible, which would be necessary to intercept and copy the actual OTA file.
These problems directly stem from the fact that AT&T will never release a KDZ or TOT for us because they're evil, and ultimately don't want their clients to gain root and potentially extend the life of their phone hardware via 3rd party Roms like CyanogenMod.

Since I am not a developer I am curious whether you can make anything that would for us with the nougat source code for the h820?

Got the OTA update to Nougat last night!

Came here to see what everyone else thinks of the update, but no one else seems to be talking about it. Did anyone else get updated?
For reference, I'm using a FRD-L04 on AT&T in the USA. I'm currently on build FRD-L04C567B360. I'm not rooted or anything, just got the phone a month ago.
I didn't do anything to get the update, (not even manually running the updater) just got a notification that the software update was available.
It's been fantastic so far. I felt that EMUI 4 was slick and quick but this feels even faster and smoother. Very happy so far but it's only been a few hours. (went to bed shortly after upgrading)

Can you post a screenshot on the about info? Just to make sure some rumors are true that some people will get the update earlier for the L04 model.

Screenshot added to OG post.

Interesting, they must have just started rolling it out despite the February release rumors.

Hmm.. I haven't received it yet.Were you rooted? Were you on the B162 firmware before?

OP said he isn't rooted and got the phone a month ago. But I did hear rumors that some L04 variants would get nougat a couple weeks in advance so I don't really expect to get nougat until a couple of weeks into February.
Also OP does the stock messaging app support quick reply implemented from nougat?

In Poland some people get official OTA for L09 model, so they start updating our phone earlier

I was also able to get the EMUI5/Nougat upgrade through HiCare under the "early adopter" section. I'm in Finland and have L19 (the 64GB dual-SIM version).
Based on what I read, the early adopter program is not a beta program, but just the first bunch to receive the official upgrade?
Haven't installed the upgrade yet, have to first backup and charge the phone.

I would say it's more like release candidate. Under the early adopter section I have a comment that "some of the updates doesn't have official status and could be still not stable". Anyway, enjoy. It brings this much needed UI refresh

Where can I find the early adopter section in the hicare app?

after the update the screen off and lock is not working anymore, if you lock with the app you must enter password to unlock

in the app it's under Service, Os update and early adopters, make sure you have the latest version of Hicare from the Playstore also,.

Hej everyone...
Same happened to me today morning...i've got notification then OTA update is ready to download...
I'm in Sweden, not rooted, locked bootloader...

Thanks, that's what I thought. Of course it's useless to have an early adopter program if you are forced to release the same version to the others anyway. You have to have an option to fix bugs if major showstoppers arise.
Did the upgrade, everything went smoothly.
I was pleasantly surprised that the upgrade still has Huawei Swype keyboard as an option in addition to Swiftkey. I use Swype on all my mobile devices, now I don't have to install it separately.

Hi guys, I got the 360 update this morning.
Its not the official N update im on the beta N uk program.
I was intouch with honor UK early this week and he said that we would get another beta update before the official N release.
As you can see from the screen shots this update was only nearly 500mb.
I'm not sure if they are doing different things in different countries but this is what's happening in the UK

Yes I get that but I spoke to a Honor rep on Google + on Monday and he said that we was getting one more update on the beta before the Official N release in Feb.

There's no way in hell they will upgrade P9 Lite to Android O... They were slow to upgrade P9 to Nougat, let alone P9 Lite... Maybe, but maybe, P9 will get Android O, they are too busy with this year's lineup, P10 and P10 Plus... I'm disappointed by Huawei... Nice design, good specs, but horrible software support. Never ever Huawei again.

Does updating to this impact Adhell2 installs? Will it re-enable all of the bloat that I've disabled already?

I installed this update this morning and I received "Android. System. UI has stopped working" every time my phone tried to boot.
I thought that Substratum StatusBar Icons for Samsung was causing the issue. I was able to boot into safe mode one time and uninstalled Substratum StatusBar Icons, thinking that this would fix my boot issue. My issue was not fixed and I was not able to boot into Safe Mode again without receiving the "Android. System. UI has stopped working" error every time.
I installed Samsung Galaxy S8+US Unlocked Firmware XAA Version Live!!! (https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s8+/how-to/galaxy-s8-xaa-version-live-t3613013) so that i can get my phone working again.
Can anyone point me in the right direction on re-installing the updated T-Mo firmware?

In case anyone was wondering, I just decided to test it myself. Before applying the update I re-enabled all of the packages because I read elsewhere that people had an issue if certain Samsung system apps were disabled. I did not uninstall AdHell2, just re-enabled all of the packages. The update went by without any problems and I then disabled all of the packages I want removed from the running system after the update.
The only thing I had to do to get back to my same modified config was re-run the ADB commands to restore the mobile data toggle.

Just finished the update, booted to twrp, installed twrp, unlocked data with pattern, installed twrp and magisk 16.7 now when booting it wont accept my pattern and now rebooting into the installed twrp the touch screen doesnt work.
Rebooted, now the pattern works, ill check twrp again.

You should be fine. You could even flash the OTA in twrp if you wanted. Either way, you'll lose twrp and root anyways. But no big deal to install them again :good:

Question?... I originally installed an earlier developer/beta version of Andriod P on my Pixel 2 XL however I had issues pairing my S3 gear watch with my phone while on Android P. It seemed that with the correct original plugins that my samsung gear S3 watch would continue to pair but the Samsung gear App would just force close upon trying to open it. I had erased the plugins and had to get off Android P back to 8.1 to reinstall the plugins at which time I opted to just stay on 8.1.
So my question is has anyone had any luck using the Samsung gear watch App in DP5, and/or have you had any pairing issues??? Wondering has anyone encountered this?

I'm on verizion ,but I took out sim card on DP4 did factory reset set phone up then insert card so I don't get the bloat when it was released.I just received the OTA to DP5 about an hour ago.

Any changes in this last release?

I'm a little disappointed with Android p. I feel like it's half baked. Gestures aren't the most intuitive, dark theming is pointless. Not sure why the the settings and the rest of the UI isn't dark. Animations need more work. And the bad news, is this what the final version will look like.

NFC working in this preview build?

I've been on Phone since DP2. Zero problems with my gear. Just do not do a clean flash to P or a factory reset on P. I did the latter in O then took the DP2 OTA.
