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

Just remember this is for the H870, not for the DS model.

Claro H910PR, any possibility to root / recovery?

Hi, I've recently moved on from my ZUK Z2 to V20 and I'm loving this phone. Recently discovered very little-to-none info about my puerto rican V20 though. Its H910PR v10j claro stock rom with 1st December Security Patch.
Can anyone guide me if there is a possiblity to root/TWRP this set with failsafe? I'm just noob to these recent terminologies about ARB/flashing etc for the case of V20. I have had G3 before but this V20 stuff is totally new to me.
Also, if in future, LG releases Oreo for V20, will the claro v20 get it?
Kind regards,
Since you are on the December security patch, you can use the normal DirtySanta root method.
As for getting Oreo, even if Claro doesn't give you Oreo, you will be able to flash the H910 version (if ANY V20 gets Oreo -- I am starting to have my doubts).

No January 2018 Update on H990ds Indian Version.

Guys I recently had purchased this LG V20 H990ds in India. And the thing is I did not get any January update yet where as many people on various threads claims that they did get the January Security Patch Update.
So can anyone confirm that is the update still rolling out or its just me who didn't got that update!
And if it is so then please help me to get mine updated!
Thanks!

Hasn't been rolled out for your variant yet.

US996 Firmware

Can anyone tell me what the most current version in for my US Factory unlocked US996 is? Thanks for your help
Officially just 10n which iirc has the November 2017 security patch. Unofficially it can also use the us Cellular us996 firmware (through flashable zip,, or lgup with kdz) which is on the February 2018 security patch. Or if you want to absolutely abandon stock and get further into rooting and roms based you could run LineageOS which is on the March security patch but the second screen doesn't work and neither does HiFi mode.

Thanks Phoenix, I flashed 10N, build # NRD90M with Nov 6th security patch some months ago right after getting the phone. This must be US Cellular firmware and I didn't know it of course. Not carrying the phone around these days but I do still like it and use it as my music player. When (if) Oreo is ever released I'll start using it more again. I have hope... for LG to not upgrade a flagship device at least once is unimaginable (I think, lol). Thanks again

LGUP - how to install new firmware not as upgrade?

I have a question to the experts of the change of firmware between regions ...
my G6 (H870DS) was originally an IRN (IRAN) with software version
H870DS10s_00_OPEN_AME_DS_OP_0112.kdz with security patch May 2018.
using the procedure described in my guide, I flashed the firmware
H870DS20b_00_OPEN_HK_DS_OP_0713.kdz, with which the patch was updated in July 2018, while the software version instead of HGK became DS2 (V20b-DS2-YT).
Flashing then the latest firmware for TAIWAN ( H870DS10e_00_OPEN_TW_DS_OP_0724.kdz) it has updated the security patch in August 2018, while the software version has become the V20c-DS2-YT, where it maintains the DS2 region unchanged.
So I'm starting to think that the problem is making LGUP work by upgrading the firmware, but it does not allow me to install the new firmware in refurbish mode.
Does anyone know how I need to activate the refurbish voice instead of the upgrade one?
can this be the solution to my question?

would anyone know how to adapt it to G6 h870s / h870ds?
