Hello everyone. Since JB was released for the Lg Optimus g today I am unable to get the update via OTA, I have tried to manual update and it keeps telling me device is up to date. Changed date and all apps are enabled and still nothing. I spent 2 hrs trying to get the little maintenance update yesterday and it told me the same thing, device is up to date. I am on Software version E97010o. I am using ATT through Straight talk. Can anyone help me out or confirm that they have received the update on Straight talk?
I read that someone just had wifi and we're not on the ATT network and was able to update their phone.

MysteryEmotionz figured out that if you're on 10o you can't update. Your phone needs to be on 11c.

How do we get to 11c on phones which are not rooted and just stock (only sim unlocked) ?? is there a way to get to 11c manually/LGNPST

Just got an update on LG Optimus G, does anyone know what in it?

I'm not sure but I got it too. It failed when trying to update though. Probably because I already rooted it?
I went ahead and let it update, it's a small 3.5 MB update so definitely not anything dramatic. Changed software version from E97010l to E97010o. No change in kernel or baseband version. Will check and see if root method for international Optimus G still works...
EDIT: Root still works. Haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary, so feel free to update without the fear of losing root.
Here's a question: How are these updates pushed? My E970 is operating on Rogers and has actually NEVER been registered or run on AT&T. Are these updates pushed via the AT&T network to registered/operating phones, or via the Internet to specific IMEIs? In other words, will my phone ever get updates like this pushed?
How do we opt out of updates?

Hooray Arkansas! Anyway, I used Titanium Backup (after rooting and unlocking bootloader) to delete the LG FOTA app. I still get the FOTA notification, and it tries to install it. However, FOTA's install using stock recovery, and if you unlock your bootloader your stock recovery is overwritten by Clockwork Mod recovery so the device just reboots
Anyone else getting better battery life? It's been 12 hours since I last charged my phone and I've barely cracked off a 3rd of the charge.
This may be a question for another thread, but my update failed (guessing because my phone is rooted). If I temporarily un-root my phone and apply the update, would it work? I can then go back and root it again if need be, but I really just wanted to remove some AT&T apps and that was the only reason I rooted it in the first place.
Now I wonder if I've created a headache for myself in regards to updates. I should have done more research before rooting!

Like Deathmonkey said, the update fails because of your custom recovery. You would have to flash your stock recovery in order to receive the OTA. I think you can see how yo do this in the rooting guide thread.

what is the latest version of the software on your phone? I have E97010o, i sthis the latest version? I have a really bad battery drain due to fast dormancy on 3g and just wanted to check if the latest version takes care of this.

Man, I'm really sorry to be an idiot, but I couldn't find what you were talking about. I found the root guide in this forum, but there's zero mention of a recovery. Can you point me to the thread? Sorry, and thank you again.

I was under the impression that only the unlock installs a custom recovery. Does the root do this too?

That's a good question. All I did was root and uninstall a few AT&T apps. That's it. I haven't installed any custom recovery, but maybe that was done somehow?
Lesson learned for me: don't go messing with crap until I do my research
Edit: tried a hard reset, no luck of course. Only thing that did for me was buy me two hours now of trying to reinstall my apps. This is depressing.

Sorry to bump this back up. Just got my phone last night and rooted it with this method - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1941699
This morning I saw that my phone has an update available. Is it safe to update if I defrost all my frozen bloatware (I did not delete any of them, just frozen)?
I've read that I should not do OTA if I unlocked the bootloader whichI have not done, only root. I also searched and found out that I should not do OTA if I have a custom recovery which I do not think I have from the rooting directions from the thread above. Just trying to be cautious.
This update does not fix our fast_dormancy problem. I tried it on my OG the first couple days. I am now rooted, unlocked and running nottach custom att Rom.

Thanks for the reply. Was your phone rooted before installing the update?
I was on stock ICS but rooted and unlocked and on software version 10o and wanted to update to JB but was reluctant to do LGNPST so I tried this and it worked for me so hopefully it will help some of you out.
Reading some of the forum posts, I understood that JB update won't remove root but if you have unlocked bootloader it errors out so:
First Step (locking the bootloader) :
Used FreeGee paid app from play store to restore my backup (which I believe locks the bootloader)
Second Step (Contact AT&T)
I contacted the technical support through the online chat option and told them that I would like the JB update but I am on version 10o. He told me to first connect my phone to wifi to be able to receive the updates. He was able to push 11c update to my phone which I installed and rebooted the phone. Checked that my root stayed intact using the Titanium Backup.
Third Step (Reset the update clock)
When I checked for a software update after upgrading to 11c, it told me to wait 24 hours so I went into TiBu to clear the olam data but it did not detect a new update so I advanced my clock to April 8, checked for update and it started downloading the update. Changed the clock back to today's date.
After that the phone downloaded the update, it rebooted, installed firmware, installed software and updated the android apps (48 something) and now I am on JB.
Hope this helps someone who was in similar situation.

Yes. I still have root. I have not tried unlocking with freegee after JB but the change log said it unlocks after at&t JB update so I think it should work.
Is there a specific keyword you are using to tell the customer service rep? I called 611 and they said they do not have any ability to push any update to any particular phone. They said that you just have to wait.

I prefer to chat.. so I just went to the technical support chat directly but they can definitely push an update to you. I didn't specifically ask for 11c update but I told them that I am on 10o and trying to update. I have found the chat more useful than phone.
Just got off the chat with the same results. Oh well. Hopefully it gets rolled out here soon. For reference I'm in Seattle.

I think when I was chatting with the rep, one of things he copy pasted in the chat window said that the customer needs to be on 11c to be eligible for JB update. May be try chatting with them again and ask them to push 11c update to you. I should have taken the screenshot of the chat window.
Just use lgnpst to get on 11c. G33k3r released the 11c file last night after I discovered you needed to be on 11c to receive the update. Lgnpst didn't effect your warranty so your good to go.

Couldn't wait any longer and just gave in. Used LGNPST to flash to 11c that was provided in the other thread. After that was upgraded I immediately got notified for the JB update. All my data was retained and nothing was lost in the process.

Yes, you will still have root. If you have unlocked the bootloader, you should lock/restore them before updating.

Can you post the OTA
Is it safe to assume that the OTA would fail if I'm S-Off with TWRP installed? I just S-off'd & rooted last night. Still running the stock ROM. Haven't made any other modifications other than uninstall a few preloaded apps.
What folder do I find the ota, so we can get this thing rooted?

S-Off is fine but you need the stock recovery to flash the ota. Also if you removed any stock software it may be a problem as well

IF youve already updated, the ota usually gets deleted after/during the reboot....if you postpone and reboot itll be either in the root of your storage or in downloads...

This, I believe, is why you can't see any contents in /cache/fota. I think you have to grant root access to ES FE to see those files.

I am rooted. And I saved the file. Its just over 600megs and is called update.zip.
Welp just received the OTA update for my phone after restoring to stock, non-root last night. Installing it as we speak.
Official link on Verizon's site has also been updated: http://www.verizonwireless.com/support/lg-g3-update/.
Link to the PDF with the updates included with the version: http://www.verizonwireless.com/dam/support/pdf/system_update/benefits-lg-g3-4-13-15.pdf.
Hopefully this doesn't include any of the bugs reported in the other threads.... we'll see.
EDIT:
Now that I've updated, I see the version number is VS98523C, not 23B in the About page of the phone. Guess they didn't bother updating any of their documentation with the version change.

There will be no OTA to 23c from anything but 12b.
Dang
I'm on 12b, but rooted. I rooted at 10b, took all the OTAs to 12b, telling SuperSU to preserve root and it did.
Someone else was on 12b rooted and took the OTA (I have the OTA notification but I'm not installing it until I find out more info on it) and said it failed after rebootl. Probably due to rooting, but I don't know if they did any other modifications (busybox, tethering hack, etc). I only rooted. I've done no other system modifications to the phone, but I don't want to take the OTA to have it fail and mess things up.
I must preserve root for TiBu. Has anyone been able to take the OTA rooted at 12b and preserve it? Or, once getting to LP unrooted, have they been able to root it? I know there was a root method for the unofficial releases, but I do not know if they work for the official release (which is 12b).
I kdz'd to 23C and rooted it. i posted links in the kdz thread.

I'm looking specifically for the official version that I just got from ota. That's 23b from what has been reported, so I need to know if anyone has taken the official 23b ota rooted only, and was able to keep root.
Thanks for the info anyways.
It's not 23b, it's 23c. The docs on the Verizon site, they didn't bother to update them yet. Its even a slightly different 23c than the one leaked recently - different size radio.
Same bugs though. They released it anyway, knowing it won't sync without using up some cell data. Wonder why ?
