No feature added , just feels little smoother. Had issue with two beeps of locking sound, now haven't seen that. Battery looks slightly improved but wait can't judge it on 3 hrs of usages , after 2-3 cycles it may be clear. Lastly the updated android security patch of April . Will revert back if anything weird happens but nothing till now everything good.

Thanks for the great feedback. Still downloading the KDZ file. Is the interface the same as V20C? I mean, I am hoping it might be the same as in G5.

Interface is same as it was on previous version no changes in that. No G5 implementation yet. Android version is the same.

Imported from Thailand, buying in India was too main stream . I also got H810 single sim variant. Update may be on the way, hope so.
Updated now to V20E. Let's see what will be the performance after weeks of usage.

A bit off topic: Since u have imported ur device, will you still get LG India warranty. Asking this because the so called "bootloop" issue is spreading like forest fire amongst the G4 users.
As for V20e update part I will be informing as soon as the update arrives for my H818N. :laugh:

Bootloop is seen for older handset, my older one is H810 and got my H818 is a week old. The batch after Jan 2016 has got newer version of motherboard so no at risk I think so and no warranty for imported handsets.

Have yet to see Indians complain about it. 30K G4's imported into the country, where are they ?
When i went through a russian thread and used google translate i counted about 25. Out of how many. thousands ?
The bulk of people complaining are single sim. And the poll thread showed they were concentrated around the early builds.

its a phased roll out. You dont roll out an update everywhere at the same time. Roll it out in one country, then wait & watch. Ok ? move to the next country and so on.

ok, so its just a security update, to April.
Still 6.0, we're waiting for 6.0.1, that is where the battery improvements will be.
kernel still on 3.10, it goes to 3.18 in 6.0.1 i suppose.

S6 users were crying they did not get MM until march.
The G4 got MM in Dec.
Difference is the S6 got 6.0.1, we're still on 6.0
It takes work. Be patient.
Save your prayers for N.
The open question is the security updates. How long will LG keep those up.

Sent from my SM-N920S using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Now hold on there man...why AOD should by all means be absent of this update? How come they're able to build a nougat ROM without including it? Is there for S7 and S7edge . No way this may be call an update without it .
Otherwise if course I can live very well without it ? but ranting make us feel better.
sent from my N920C
It will be no AOD on Note5! Samsung always did like this.
Why does everyone always expect Samsung or any OEM for that matter to bring key features (IE. AOD) from latest flagships to older devices? Lol Its what separates one device from the other. It's what keeps a business in business. Otherwise nobody would buy new devices and eventually would go out of business because sales would fall.
- this is just a place holder to have the thread in my feed ?

Even if they don't include aod we'll have it in custom roms anyway. I know it sucks for ones who are completely stock though.

Sammobile is very late on the news if the device is not S7, S7 Edge or S8. It took 3 weeks to report and upload grace ux for SM-N920K.
It will fix deep sleep issue?

The design isn't that bad actually. It is different, but I like it. The screen is really spacious and its a fast device. The stock ROM isn't half had either, but I don't like the bkoat carriers ship it with
Personally though, I'd wait. Right now I'd say it is the best device you can buy, but others are planned ftom other OEMs
not the same

Payoff would be very low
Just doesn't make "business" sense, to release Oreo, on older units, right before you release your brand new model.
Would be "nice", but I just can't see them doing it from a business perspective. Realistically, I don't see it coming to the
older units OFFICIALLY until around the Christmas holiday time frame, if that soon.
If "older" flagship does not receive android update, that would not generate much trust from consumers in company to buy new phone.
At the very least let us get EMUI 5.1 on our Mate 9.

That's silly to say the least, a phone isn't about software, I would buy the mate 10 if I could, even if I had 8.0 on the Mate 10. This argument is invalid, to me at least...

That's your opinion, mate, but I truly disagree.
Many customers pay attention to new software features that improve the overall user experience (see Android's doze improvements) and that are not related to hardware.
So, IMHO Huawei's hurry to release Mate 9's Oreo beta BEFORE Mate 10's release seems to be all about customers confidence-making

Yeah kinda sounds silly when I read it now, what I meant was, it's not all about software updates, ffs, the mate 9 is the best phone I've had until this day, why whine about not having O or P or whatnot. Of course I love new updates with new functions, used to be an update freak, not anymore I guess.

I wonder how we will get a notification, maybe from members app? Also i want to remind you that he didnt say they will be in beta along 9 series its still unclear but as he says they will its the thing to lookout for

Ok. So if we will not get the beta for S8 & S8+, will there be a chance to get the beta unofficially? By sideloading a Pie update build or something the same as the S9 and S9+ is getting now from leaks?
