A few infos for those who have problems on V20D H815

to all the guys on the international variant who have problems with sot and overheating issue, lg knows about the problems and they are working on a new update, i saw this on a german forum they are allready testing it so it should come online in one or 2 weeks.This information was given them by the lg support. Wanted to share u this because i only saw it in german forum and not on xda. So we just have to wait now

My h815 never heated up, and the SOT was about 3h30m or 4h, depends on the use that i was giving.
If its for us to have 5h....YUPIIII !!!

So m8 u are one of the lucky users but there are some issues on some h815 like strange battery drainage fron 95 to 50% and randomly heating up peocessors even with clean installation of v20d. And sometimes calls dont work properly they are buggy too. And further i have to say that this is the information given us in the german forum by the lg support workers. Lets wait for the changelog we'll see then what has been changed

Thank you for the information!
From what I saw - in V20f LG already fixed the SOT and the heating problem.

Yeah but dont forget that v20f is for turkey and we are officially on v20d so as far as we go officially the issues arent solved for International/european models. And maybe lg releases v20f as v20e for us europeans, lets wait it out
I hope it will be 6.0.1

You can install V20f on the international version

One question:
If I'm rooted,will I get information for the new software and will I be able to update it or I must unroot it first?
Btw,I'm on V20d-EUR-XX...

You can flash it with LG UP.
H815, H815TR, H815L, H815P are all the same model which is H815

Flashed v20f TR on my H815 GBR version serial start 509 Sept 2015 and software showed up as V20-Opt2-HQ so back on V20D and will wait on official release for EU models.

Mine is from Portugal and before I flash 20f it was v20d-opt2 in factory version now is v20f-opt1..... Change the lte icon, volte don't work....I think because my provider don't support that feature.
I will keep this version because besides that I was mencion it works great!
Enviado do meu LG-H815 através de Tapatalk

I think when the actualization will be available, the official one will be shown for you (v20d → v20x for example) and nevermind if you are on v20f opt2 ...

Source plis

When I have had my LG G2 before I bought G4 it was same as I wrote. I flashed some KDZ and few days after that had been pushed an actualization for my model and the former LG PC suite offered me the update.

Can you add the source please?

if u want to know where i got that info from it was on the german forum android-hilfe in the battery thread and the g4 6.0 update discussion thread i dont know if its allowed to post a link of that forum but i´ll do it and if its forbidden then mods can just delete them
http://www.android-hilfe.de/forum/lg-g4-h815-forum.2175/
like i said it was mentioned there a few days ago if u want i can post also the right place where it was mentioned but u guys will find it

If you are on stock firmware you'll be notified and will be able to update whether you are rooted or not (as long as you haven't disabled automatic checks). After the update you will have lost root.
Edit: welder73 a word of caution since many people don't realize that root and custom recovery are different things and you don't need one for the other: if you have installed a custom recovery and get notified about updates do not accept to install them (OverTheAir). Instead find a place to download the update and flash it using your custom recovery.

For LG G6 H870 you sure ? European variant and you was on 10t before can you take screenshot in about phone ?

10u is the last update i saw. i had some issues with my H870 and i flashed stock 10T with uppercut. When i connected it to LGUP, it showed another updated(10u) ready for download. I didn't had the patience to wait for it, as the server was really slow,but still...lg keeps delivering updates until oreo arrives.

I have 10u. This is on my lg g6 (H870) bought from orange. In FW info show v10u-ORG-MCV. 10u has security patch from 1.august. Nothing new when connect to lg bridge.

I got v11d OTA but I'm holding off on installing until I hear more feedback from people.

Flash it, you won't regret. Standby battery drain and camera are way better than on 10t.

Can you be more specific about the camera?
Have they fixed oversharpening?

I used to have some kind of watercolor effect which is now gone, I don't know if that's what you mean. Plus, the front camera has improved A LOT.

OK I took the plunge and updated to v11d Oct 21. So far battery life seems excellent and I have not noticed any overheating of the device. Performance also seems fine.
Can't say I've noticed anything obvious about the main front facing camera-- still slightly washed out look with blowing out of highlights like before.
Shutter does seem a little quicker.
Haven't run into any new features (yet).

Updating lg g6 to oreo

I have h870 lg g6 with the Israeli version Is it possible to install other country's version to get 8.0 in english?

yes, just download Open EU .kdz from here https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h870-firmwares/#firmwaresList and flash via LGUP & Uppercut, very easy.

Maybe, but chances are you'll convert your phone into a small Wi-fi only tablet. That's if it doesn't bootloop.
Not sure about LG, but I know for a fact on some HTC phones, flashing DS radio firmware on SS phones disables all GSM radio functionality.

hi, i have a G6 H870 chilean version, without branding, can i install the UE Firmware? and the other question, is if i won't lose my warranty?

I just did the same last night. I'll let it "settle in" for a day or 2 to see the results.
So far a little lag (in opening apps) compared to Nougat, but stable. Battery drain seems slightly improved but I'll report back later.
If the lag doesn't go away I'll go back to Nougat

maybe I see more difference because I came from the Israeli version. Also I did a clean install

I also came from that version
I didn't do a factory reset. because I figure that once I reinstall everything (and I actually use all the apps) I'll be in the same situation.
The slight delay in apps opening is slightly annoying. I suppose I can get used to that, but I prefer a snappy device even if I don't have immersive mode or context menus on the icons...maybe I'll roll back to Nougat

So after a few days, a few observations:
1. The lag seems to have decreased with a few days of settling in. Still not exactly snappy, but less delay in opening apps.
2. There is a new setting in Oreo under apps-battery usage- a toggle for "background activity" . It is available for some apps but not all. It stops these apps from running processes in the background (not connected to "power saving exclusions"). This seems to have improved battery life a bit.
3. No crashes or freezing.

I got the Philippines variant for LG G6 which is an H870DS ESA and I flashed a Singapore H870DS SEA oreo firmware (.kdz) and got stuck on LG Logo after I complete the flashing
1. Opened Uppercut / Runned LGUP directly
2. Choose the H870DS kdz file
3. Choose "update"
4. Start the flashing and wait till it finish
5. Stuck at LG logo

On the firmware website I see there is now an "official" version of oreo for the Israeli device (dated 8-8-18)
Anybody try it?

I dont think so... maybe, I get a 'dark enviornent' moon thing in the corner, but nothing else seems to be changed (I don't use the camera very much)

You would think they would let you know of the changes and how improved they are. I mean, they put in the effort to add them. I wish I knew what exactly it was that is now better

I just saw a video of us model running on oreo and june security patch.
Whats really interesting is the camera app identical to G7 thinQ's.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6AvfM_MbqJE
If someone can extract and upload Lg G6 thinQ caera app it whoud be great

I dont get this Company, some Phones of the same Model get a completly new Camera App and some not? Ah its like, some have only 32gb 64gb and qdac or QI in their Countries availabe.

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.

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.
