Hi all,
I have seen a good offer for a branded G5 from an European carrier and I was wondering if there is any known way yet to de-brand it, in order to free it from the bloatware that I suppose it will be packed with.
If not, do you think normally this would be possible within some months from release, or were there already cases in the pase where this wasn't possible ever?
Thank you very much.

Accepted... I wrote a bit careless and I can see how the request was kinda funny.
Let me reformulate... In case I find the branding too disturbing and I want to flash a stock unbranded image (which I believe is possible for European H850 even if branded by carrier, right??) then I will miss OTA and maybe won't even be able to sideload OTAs like I used to with Nexus 5?

If you remove the original firmware flashing a different one you will lose OTA, but it seems that on G4 is possibile to receive update through LG Bridge (but i'm not sure), obviously the update you will receive will always been related to your brand.
Sideload as far as i know is not possibile on LG devices, because the Stock Recovery is made for Hard Reset only.
For now it's not possible to flash firmware on the G5, but some users are working both on LGUp and Flashtool 2.0.1.6 Here

OK thanks!
I would not see the point of providing a way to unlock the bootloader from LG itself even, if then you don't give people the possibility to flash something else on it, or maybe I'm missing the point of unlocking bootloader.
(talking about Italian Vodafone or Tim btw)

With the official bootloader unlock you lose the warranty, and there is no way to recover it, by flashing a no-brand firmware on al lg device the warranty remain (exception made for us carriers maybe).
Note that with an unlocked bootloader you can flash many things (roms, kernel, mods, xposed ecc...), with LGUp or Flashtool you can only flash official lg firmware.
So, LG provides an official bootloader unlock so the users can use their smartphone's full potential, but doesn't allow to flash official firmware because there is the smartphone update center for otas, and LG Bridge fo recovering and flash the whole firmware update, and not only the ota.

You didn't say which G5 you've got, but all KDZ files for the H850 can be found here: https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h850-firmwares/
If it's not the H850, click on the "LG G5" link in the LG Series column on the right hand side of the H850 page for more models.
H850
I got the h850 and the newest update is not on this page... the bridge says the newest update is called H85020b and i can't find it for EU or German.. can't update my LG too... and the support from LG doesn't know how to fix my phone... so....

If you've rooted your phone, that's probably why the OTA update failed. To get the OTA update you'll first have to flash one of the stock KDZ files posted for your phone, accept and install the OTA update to get the latest firmware, after which you can TWRP your phone with fastboot and flash SU.

my phone isn't and wasn't rooted.. so idk where the problem is.. i tried the IMEI kdz finder and they don't work as well so i can't find the kdz for my phone... D: maybe it's because i flashed a kdz with flashtool before (my phone is vodafone branded and i didn't know that i baught it from amazon from the original LG... and i got an branded device so i installed an open EU kdz..
@N0!Z3 ExPl0
this could be the reason because you didn’t find 20b on LG firmware sides. 20b seems to be a "vodafone only" update!
as i know, this problem appears because your phone is a vodafone brandet phone!
You have to debrand your phone if you want to use other firmware for it. Ask Google!

You can simply update your V10 via LG Bridge software. Just download and install LG Bridge into your pc and connect the phone via USB cable. It'll detect your V10 and then you can easily update your phone from there. Also it is advised to create a full backup before performing system update! :good:
My phone firmware is H82011k. LG Bridge Update gave me H820PR20a( the same from lg-firmware.com ). When phone enter in download mode LG Bridge stops downloading and tells to remove battery and connect again, but nothing happens.
Tried to upgrade using LGUP . When phone enter in download mode aplication gave error "Anti-rollback version is smaller ..."
With Upercut the same problem
So how to get grabbed from LG Bridge upgrade into phone.
Your phone is H820 - AT&T - version H82011k, yes?
H820PR20a - this update for H820PR (PuertoRico) . You Can't update H820 with H820PR firmware!
H820 have different boot then H820PR

I'am agree with you but why LG Bridge gave me this firmware?
http://www.mediafire.com/file/cz0nsuzyua58fd4/H820PR20a_00_1123.kdz
I agree to brick my phone. How to insert this firmware into it?
I also forget to mention when i first time connect phone to LG Bridge program gave me latest firmware from at&t ( same installation problem ). Next day when i found how to grab .kdz file, LG Bridge decide to update my phone with PR version. Dont now how to cheat LG Bridge to give me at&t version.
So pls H820 owners install LG Bridge, press Software Update, afther download complete
make sure that u can see hidden files from windows
go to C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\LG Electronics\LG Bridge\SWUpgrade\Image
and save Image.kdz elsewhere in your computer. then share it to us.
thx

How? At&t doesn't share their kdz and tot files. How can you grab it from lg bridge?
It'll probably only grab the PR's kdz instead.

I'm getting about 5 hours screen on time on 8.0 using auto brightness indoors and opera mini with ad block and data savings on.
I did turn off sync, wifi, bt, location - only 4G LTE T-Mobile usa.
Disabled many built in apps I don't use - most of Google products, etc.
Always on display is on.
