G6 US99715a still on Sept2017 patch - LG G6 Questions and Answers

I have the LG G6 US99715a which I got from a developer on Amazon in 2018. The phones starting to slow down and lag a lot and I'm just trying to update it to the latest version. LG Bridge says I can update to October 2018 but my update center says its out of date. I downloaded the US99715a firmware from the LG website and flashed it with LGUP but nothing happened.
How do I update my phone? Was I supposed to flash the US99716a instead of the 15a?

Thanks for helping. I learned that I needed to flash the latest firmware instead of the 15a. Quick 10 second answer, people just ignore it. If anyone wants to know how, lmk ill post link.

I haven't tried it yet but looks like branded and jan patch.
So it is not Nougat update and then we don't care anymore about this firmware?

I'm afraid it is MM. v20 firmware. At least jan sec patch. Hopefully it will come to unbranded roms too.
I can't believe how bad is LG aftersales. If I knew that before I would have bought a different brand.
If it is v20, it is MM.. Unfortunately. And now we have February, almost March so it will be nice if LG releases february update... I think it will be success if LG give us Nougat update at all...

Yeah, terrible LG support. Samsung officialy said that S6 And S Edge will get Android N in a few days/weeks.
I would recommend everyone to generate their unique unlock.bin file on LG G4 unlock website in case of that LG shutdown LG G4 software support completly or Its unlocking page. All of you can easily unlock bootloader and flash custom ROM then (Lineage 14.1 for example).
I have already done that unlocking procedure and I've installed root and twrp. So if LG closes the support, I'll be able to change ROM if necessary.

Using XDM download manager to download kdz firmware from LG server is faster. and You can make sure it is original from LG.

I'd like to try that, but error while flashing at 9%. I had to remove battery and turn on my phone again. I tried that four times with different USB ports with no luck.

This might fix that error, but I haven't tried it yet.
There must be a reason why this KDZ cannot be installed normally.
After using 0x2000 fix KDZ flashed sucessfully. ROM has Android 6.0 with security patch from January 2017. It just has custom Vodafone boot animation, anything else stock, no bloat.

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.
Sent from my LG-H990 using Tapatalk
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."...

Changelog firmware

can someone tell me where I can find out about changes to each stock firmware?
my version is 10c and it was already 10d ... but before updating I would like to know where I can see the changes ... is there any official source? because on the LG site I found nothing...
I would appreciate it if anyone could give me the changelog link
LG never gives useful information about the updates. When the update comes in, you just get a laconic "enhancements in performance and security" statement.
Another place where LG sucks
:[ the problem is that i'm not receiving updates via ota anymore :[ ... I have lgh870 with flashed stock 10c... ****...

How to roll back to the earliest version of ROM? (LS997)

Hi,
I got my LG V20 (LS997) today, and I decided to update it. My phone took couple of updates till it reaches the last one. I decided to root my phone then, but I was failed to do so. I got to know that I have to roll back to the ROM which has a security patch before Dec 2016. There are a number of guiding threads here, but the phone is my phone is not rooted, so how am I going to flash those files? Also, LGUP doesn't detect my phone at all. I don't know why.
I think the latest version has anti rollback =1
So you can't rollback.
And there is no root for the latest version of sprint variant of lg v20 as I know.
Lg patch dll
There is a patch lgup dll file that can flash go to the main forum and you will find it

Ahh, so normally you would actually be able to do a rollback, so this is just one more of these Satanic things to make it hard for the user to do whatever he wants with HIS device. I was so sad when I updated to the latest version as it seemed the mobile overall became slower. So had I had the option I would have rollback in an instant.

LG G6 H870DS TWN (Pie Update)

I would like to confirm that my H870DS TWN version updated to Android 9 using LG Bridge and everything is work well.
I took quite a long time to boot up in the LG logo, but finally it did and after about 2 manual reboots it's working as it did in Android 8, even though the security patch is from May 2019. Hopefully it will receive an OTA update with updated security settings.

Thanks for the information. Many people suffer from lg bridge when I wanted to update it showed 2 updates available and I didnt want to update due to complaints . Most people told lg bridge formatted their phones and downgraded to nougat !! did you have the same problem?

No, I did not have the problem stated by other members that, I think, do have the G6 Korean and not Taiwan (TWN) version (the one I have).
In my LG Bridge, only 1 update was shown and everything went ok. I was afraid the phone was blocked during boot up, but it managed to start after 10-15 min with the LG logo in the screen. After that I already restarted twice and it booted up normally.

OMG, I've given up on the LGH870DS a long time ago and quite surprise that Pie is now available. Any idea if they had kindly allowed the phone to be boot unlocked to install any custom roms? (just hoping!)

Thx, H870DS30a_00_OPEN_HK_DS_OP_0920 all good
After two tries with LG brigde I only got Android 7 of 8 but no Android 9. Also tried to flash with uppercut/LGUP but it stopped at 4% (used 3 different computers but no luck). If someone has a solution to flash the Android Pie to my H780DS TWN I would be glad to hear it.

If you do have H870DS TWN (Taiwan) and in LG Bridge you don't find the Pie update, you can download it from here:
https://lg-firmwares.com/downloads-file/20901/H870DS30a_00_OPEN_TW_DS_OP_0920.kdz
I had downloaded the .kdz file but was not able to flash it. Uppercut fails at 4%. Is there an other way to flash the .kdz file? I don't mind if the phone is wiped.

Flashed successfully with LG UP 1.16 and LG UP DLL update:
LGUP_Lab_Frame_Ver_1_16_0_3.msi
LGUP_Common_DLL_Ver_1_0_40_2.msi
H870DS30a_00_OPEN_TW_DS_OP_0920.kds
Last version of LG Bridge is installed on my computer and working but I'm unable to install Android 9 update... After the update, my phone is on Android 7 !?
So, I've tried with LG UP and common DLL... and it's OK.
Just launch LG UP, check "upgrade" and select downloaded kds firmware. :good:
Anyone knows why there isn't an OTA Update yet?
