Hi, has anyone beside Korea received the 4K/60fps update or any other update yet? (particularly in Europe) Is there any way to download it already?

I heard that it's going to be released on the 27 July but I'm not100% sure

Well, that's start. Many thanks

Got update tru Lg bridge v10f with july patch. Also 4k 60fps. They should improve the cameras and switch between wide angle and regular. My g6 is faster at focus and zoom also. Hope they will improve with next update
Sent from my LG-H870DS using XDA Labs

Yep, got mine yesterday here in the UK, on O2.

is root preserved if updating to v10f? or can I reapply root afterwards?

My phone hasn't gotten an update yet. I bought mine in Singapore. It's still running version V10c-SEA-XX

6Gb RAM or 4Gb RAM? Do you know when LG gonna update SEA and HKG G7 phones?

hey, I'm using the lmg710n korean variant with the skills telecom carrier and I got the 4k 60fps updated, but since mine is unlocked so I can use in my country, does that mean I can't get the next OTA update ? Also where can I check the software update timeline of korean LG phone ? (like those showed on LG USA website for different carriers) currently running g710n10s version and no update so far

Today, my beast USA unlocked LM-G710ULM updated to V10G from V10F. Also the update got the 4K60 FPS recording. :highfive:

Updated

I downloaded and installed the LG bridge software and updated my G710N to her 11b, which is weird since the built-in app didn't find it

my G710EAW (the 128gb 6gb model) received the update along with september security patch last week

But now camera lacks HDR mode 10 bits video shooting which was available from the start. Weird

Got the 6GB model. Just received the update V10e-SEA-XX yesterday. Comes with the new 4K60fps camera recording mode and the October 2018 Android security patch level.

Well, thanks. But I didn't asked for [email protected], which is shaking garbage without proper EIS which G7 lacks.
I asked where did 10 bit HDR mode go from camera settings? It was there from the beginning but now it's gone
Seems as LG PRed G7 with important feature but then stripped us, but we paid for that

Android 8.1?

Anyone have any idea or hear any news of when Android 8.1 will be pushed to UK Nokia 6.1? News online 4-5 days ago that it started rolling out OTA in India?
Nothing here on my UK model. Stuck on February security patch.
I got the 8.1 update with the april patch a few days ago (april 13rd) in france

Its annoying. Hopefully get it rolled out ASAP.
Mine is from Carphone Warehouse too. I've tried using a VPN to spoof that I'm in India and France but nothing is coming through.
I'm hoping that 8.1 will allow me to use the more recent Google Pixel camera APKs as I'm currently having to use an ancient one in order for HDR processing to work.

Mine is also TA-1043 version 5
According to https://nokiapoweruser.com/variants-nokia-7-plus-8-sirocco-6-plus-1-emerge-various-certifications/ there are 5 Nokia 6.1 variants : TA-1050, TA-1043, TA-1045, TA-1016, TA-1054
I bought a TA-1043 from amazon.de (shipped to ireland) and i have not gotten the 8.1 upgrade either....
Does anyone know what the difference between the various models (1043 / 1050) is?
I just got the TA-1043 in Hungary from Germany (Amazon) and got 8.1 on first boot.
Anyone with the TA-1050 model got this update yet? I'm not very impressed given my security patch is from the 1st Feb... It's nearly May.
Anyone know what model lauched in USA the other day? Be interesting to see if they also got the update out the box.
Carphone Warehouse have exclusivity in the UK - not sure if my model is 'their' brand and therefore has slowed updates. Bit annoying that the brand new Nokia 6 is behind the old Nokia 6 with updates though - kind of makes me wonder what the real point of Android One is.

Yeah I don't think that makes a difference. They are sim free/unlocked devices.
As an android one phone, the updates are pushed directly from Google OTA (supposedly). Just find it strange that it's still not pushed in the UK.

You don't happen to be with EE do you? I seen someone complaining about Nokia phones not receiving update due to EE... On an unlocked phone... I don't have another sim to try.

Considering i have a TA-1043 (same as a user above who also ordered off Amazon Germany but is based in hungary and received the update on first boot), i'm guessing the updates are just country limited. UK/Ireland seem to be down the pecking order.
Has anyone tried connecting over a VPN to do the update (or at least download it)?
I’ve tried. No luck.

Because you have a branded phone and your carrier releases the updates later than c432 which is stock no branded. Also the build number may differ from stock c432.

My phone is not branded and was purchased SIM free from the carphone warehouse in the UK.
Not on contract and no branding so that's not the reason.

you can rebrand your device to another region code. Search for "rebrand [device name]. This is dangerous territory so be sure you really know what you do unless you wanna have a very pretty paper weight.
New 163 firmware has appeared on Firmware Finder for those interested.
C782 still on .120
All updates for C782 go through operator approval even if you have bought a SIM free device from Carphone Warehouse. This process takes a long time and if one network rejects the update then will cause further delays.

What has it got to do with whatevef network your on? I have a sim free phone and can use multiple sims.
Are you effectively saying that no networks in the UK have approved the update for their devices and as such everyone is being delayed even though your device is not restricted by carrier bloatware and settings

Correct. C782 is a UK specific firmware that comes on all carrier provided handsets and through retailers like Carphone Warehouse. Huawei no longer provide carrier specific firmware.
C432 EU firmware does not go through any carrier approval, so updates are rolled out quicker. UK updates are provided by Huawei but they have to be approved by the major carriers. Three, Vodafone, EE, O2. Only when they approve firmware will Huawei make it available.
This is why the UK is still on B120 with B150 (build 3rd August) is pending approval. EU meanwhile has seen 3 major updates since B120.
If you have a bootloader unlock code, it's well worth changing your device to C432 so you can get updates quicker, and get away from the BS that plagues the UK update process.

Thanks for the full reply. I never thought that would be the case. I assumed I had purchased a completely 'clean' phone as such and would not have the update issue. In fairness the phone has been performing great but I don't like being left out of all the update goodness that comes along.
Does the c432 latest updates bring much in the way of improvements to the phone and would be worth changing over too?

LMV350AWM AT&t PIE Beta: LMV350AWM-V18g-310-410-MAR-22-2019-ARB00 was tested on March 22, 2019.
LG might finish the V19a by the end of April, and it should be ready for OTA in May.
Anyway, AT&T will add its bloatware on the final Android PIE firmware for LG V35.

You can repeat this news till you're blue in the face. Until we get it on our phones, it's another case of LG or LG promoters "crying wolf". I read Q4 2018. I read Q1 2019. I read Q2 2019. I've seen the way LG is supporting this device. It's a forgotten "x.5" V series. Not a v30, not a v40. A phone made for ATT and GFi only.

You can flash .up files in LG UP, but if you post it someplace, I can extract it and turn it into a TWRP flashable zip for the folks that have TWRP.
Edit: I will need a dump of the 12e firmware as well since it is a diff.
Edit2: Actually we really need that since it is a beta, it may have an engineering laf, and that may be the key to rooting these without using a firehose.

LG G7 ThinQ Android 9 update problem

Your phone is probably crossflashed.
Did you by it from ebay amazon etc or secondhand....

Romania, but I don't think that that affects the pie update... I know someone that lives in the same neighborhood as I do, has a phone just like mine (LG G7 ThinQ), we bought the devices only a few days apart, and he received his pie update in june + other updates since then (security patch and others)... and I haven't received any of those... does it have anything to do with the model number or the telecommunications company? My model number is LM-G710EM... the company is Telekom... I looked up my IMEI on imei.info and everything seems ok, no counterfeit or anything like that...
Check your ime number and Se if its not crossflashed
Som retailers is shady country's like rumania crossflash sprint phones and sells them as 710em. Thay will nog get security ore pie updates. U whold be surprised what company's do to make money.

I checked my IMEI on imei.info site and it seems to be valid... the PhoneInfo app also indicates that the IMEI is valid, everything looks fine, but I still can't get the android pie update... I even tried the LG Bridge and it doesn't work...
Having the same problem here. Wrote an Email to the LG Support via the LG Website with my IMEI. Turned out that i got a Demodevice that can´t be updated. Did you try to flash a Pie KDZ ?
The phone I have was misrepresented as an unlocked phone, come to find out that it was a cross flashed Sprint phone. I sent it in to LG to have it repaired. They wanted $365 to fix it. I got ripped off as the seller sold it as an unlocked phone. Now I'm stuck with a phone that won't update and cannot use Google Pay. LG isn't going to help either.
