X10 New Docomo firmware out

The new firmware just released in Japan is R1EA025.
More details to come later as I play with it
u updated via?
I updated from the phone. So far the UI seems much more responsive. I gained a Mora Touch icon which is specific to this region, but other than that I haven't found anything else new as it's still too early.
Excellent news. Hopefully other regional handset updates shouldn't be too far behind.
Great News Hope we (Nordic firmaware) get an update soon as well
But that firmware must be older than there is now R1FB, that's R1EA therefore is older
Oh yes, i think you are right We have already R1FB001
Did you have any troubles updating? I've got 1.0.09 baseband and R1EA018 on my SO-01B but every time I try to do an update it says that I already have the latest version. I tried using the phone and the SE update service but neither one works. Any ideas why I can't update my phone?
UPDATE: It looks like this update was meant to be released in a few days but came out early by mistake. The update has been taken down as of around 9pm on the 28th. Sources: mineral85.blog16.fc2.com/blog-entry-162.html (5.28 postscript) and k-tai.impress.co.jp/docs/news/20100528_370243.html
Some of the improvements I notice with this new firmware is the battery life is MUCH better under constant use. It also charges much faster too. The touch screen is more accurate as well. I get less typing errors than before. Also a new keyboard was added for Japanese input.
According to Docomo this firmware wasn't supposed to be released until mid-June and they are asking their customers to go to the Docomo store to downgrade.

Another new keyboard for Japanese input..?? I like the one we've got now, what's different with this new one?
Edit: nevermind! i should've clicked the links first. It looks like the new keyboard is hanabi style like the iPhone.

An HTC guy said on twitter it should be fairly close. He couldn't give a specific date but I think this month the update for uhl should role out.
I hope they will publish it soon.
Could you please tell me if root and twrp work on single sim model?
Thanks in advance.
Better ready and with no bugs then soon with high temp and battery drain.

you consider 8 months after HTCs official announcement as soon?
You knew when you bought the phone that it wasnt htc 1st priority based on its flop. Other phones didnt get it long ago, so its not only htc.
update is live...
Should get a custom rom soon i hope
My first impressions from the update are positive. Neutron player is now working in high resolution audio mode, google camera mod is more stable and performance is same like on nougat at least in geekbench 4. Will make further tests in the upcoming days and see how it goes.
Confirm update oreo 2.21.401 single sim Italy 1.77GB

Questions about Android Update for LG G6 us997 model (US unlocked version)

Anybody know if/when this update is coming? Verizon updated their version of the G6 last week. Also, is anyone else frustrated that it is taking LG so long to update Android? Oreo was released August 2017 and it is May 2018. I like LG hardware a lot on the G6 and G7 models. But I am having a lot of second thoughts about buying their phones in the future due to the lack of software support. Maybe I should just get a Pixel next time.
LG says they have created a new division in the company focused on improving the speed of Android updates. I am not sure they will focus on older devices though.
https://techcrunch.com/2018/04/12/l...-bringing-android-updates-to-its-smartphones/
Would it help at all to contact LG and tell them I am switching to Pixel due to their poor software support?

No, no one else is frustrated with it. Nobody else has even thought about it. It's literally only you. That's why when you searched, you didn't find any other threads about this.

It could help you feel better. LG won't give a shit, though. You wouldn't be telling them anything they don't already know. They won't even reply to your email. I'd take that to mean, "Okay. Enjoy your Pixel, then."
I mean no disrespect to the initiator of this thread, but I really wish there would be some moderation and conglomeration of the threads, I requested this elsewhere.
Basically the whole Q and A forum has become useless-- just a bunch of unrelated and random threads about Oreo with unanswered questions and random observations, often without any relation to the title.
Everytime I visit the forum, there is yet another pointless "oreo" thread started, which divides people's time, attention and effort to answer.
There should be one thread on Oreo updates and that's it!!!
People, please stop posting of new oreo threads!
The thing is that the other Oreo threads did not have details on unlocked model us997. In any case, for a person with medium tech skills, how hard is it to load a custom Oreo rom to this model LG G6?

You have to unlock your bootloader first

No one knows
LG continues to be indifferent to software updates especially for non-carrier unlocked phone. I am also not going to buy LG cell phone once I switch to G5 in 6 months.

Has anyone on stock been updated to H91020l?

I was looking at something unrelated and then decided to look at my software version. It's noted as H91020l, but it's weird to me since I don't even see this mentioned on the official LG website much less any other place.
