Hello!!!
So Got my G2 32GB hour ago... (950USD in Israel... expensive but that what it costs here...)

Settings - about phone - software information - tap build number fast & continuously till it says your a developer
system settings > general > about phone > software information
When you're finally under software information, tap the build number several times until a little note towards the bottom says "you are now a developer".
Thanks!!

Kitkat? Have to get through 4.3 JB first. And since LG has never released any update for any G2 phone, no one knows if it will or not.

But would root using this APP will disable such update if LG eventually makes one?
The app is just a method of rooting. The bigger question is will you get an update if rooted. No one knows, theres been no updates yet. Theres no history yet if being rooted blocks updates.

No there's always a way to install the OTA. Worst case scenario, a developer will create a flashable rom of the rooted version of the ota almost instantly.

Canada is getting screwed....not even a notification mssg has been sent out to us
fido and rogers both got leaks last Wednesday. Download the update put it on an sd and then use recovery to boot into the file. The update is smooth and stable. I got tired of waiting and put it on two devices. If you want the update check the android dev boards
system number is:
672.180.310.XT910.FIDO.en.CA
Will this void the warranty on my phone?

I never got a notification message before I was able to get the OTA. Don't assume it's not coming.

No, this is an official update file. All you need to do is boot into stock recovery and update from there.

Yes and no. If you root you ruin your warranty however un-rooting is a very simple process. And since you don't need to root to install this update, I think your warranty would still be intact. However I would wait for any warranty disputes until ICS is officially released otherwise Rogers themselves would be confused on how you got to ICS before they did

I doubt a notification will be sent out. I know when we had the last update back in Feb I didn't get anything
Slightly OT - Why would I think Canada would get ICS before Europe?
Hey, don't sell yourself short! There must be literally DOZENS of people in Canada with a Razr/Razr Maxx!
(I kid! I kid!)
as a proud new owner of a optimus l9 (purchased through vodacom) I thought that I had made the most economically viable decision in picking the L9 over the plethora of other options available. the scheduled jellybean update and the handset's good specs are what really sealed the deal for me and I'm disappointed in the fact that I still haven't the scheduled jelly bean update whatsoever... the official kdz file for the south African firmware has been posted on: lg-phone-firmware com. I'm truly getting frustrated by not having the latest software whereas I know it's out there and many are already using it... was unable to flash it using the offline method.. been trying that route for the past 3 weeks to no avail so the official OTA is my last chance at getting the update... has anyone in the region received the update as well?

what makes you say such? I'm sure the smoothness brought by project butter is beneficial on a day to day basis.. overall jb should be a much better experience than ICS or is there something I don't know?

Trust me, i'm from south america and the update didn't get here yet but i flashed a kvz from Telcel, Mexico which has JB and the phone is a complete different one. I hated it on ICS, love it on JB due to its smoothness and better response to touch.
Have you tried watching some video tutorials? I had tons of problems trying by my own but then followed a spanish one and boom, problem solved.

download it then flash using offline kdz installer. :good:
after numerous attempts at completing the offline kdz flasher I still haven't succeeded. thus is the reason for me trying to find our whether others have received the update on my region because if they have I may as well wait for it to terrible down to my device... if not I'll seek out the assistance of someone with another PC Cuz the offline kdz flasher method won't work on my laptop...

I received the OTA notification... I've even installed the update and can confirm that I am running jellybean.. it's way another overall... battery life seems to have actually improved despite what others have reported...
I dont know if it will work for you but when i wanted to go back to fully stock using the official online flash tool, i used recovery phone option and it gave me jelly bean v20a instead of v10b which is what my phone shipped with. Its not a great method as it will probably hard reset and you would lose data.

Software Upgrade Assistant fails
SUA acts like it knows my phone is connected, even says searching for updates, but never lists my G2 in the window of devices. Drivers are current and using LG cable to a main USB port.
Does LG post changelogs or would this come from Verizon?
I would think VZW since they are the one changing LG's software.

Most idiot-proof way to upgrade atm is using the Verizon upgrade utility that is included with the phone. Just hook it up to your pc, follow the autorun prompt, and then proceed to download it and it should install the update automatically.
Dumb question probably... Do I need to do something first if coming from malladus rom like revert to stock?

Hey JPC, are you gonna upgrade the cm11 tonight with the OTA out now?
My wife's phone just received an update to software version d80020u. I can confirm that it has knock code support. Not sure what else has changed.
I got the update this morning as well but I can't tell any difference other than the version change to D80020u. I can't seem to find any release notes anywhere, either.
Screenshots knock code attached.
Very nice, hope this is integrated into roms and kernels soon.
knock code with screen off right?

I can confirm that IORoot and AutoRec do work fine on the new 80020u version. Only problem is that when AutoRec installs its modded kernel you lose Knock-On. Anyone up to modding this new kernel to work with a custom recovery.

Autorec is using the old 20c kernel because lg has not dropped the source for d80020u and because of this knock on breaks, you will need to wait until we get source so that the devs can create d800 kernels with knock code support+update autorec so it doesn't break knock on

Why can't you update? Is it saying you're up to date/check again in a certain amount of time? If so, just bump your date up a couple days and check again. I went from 10d - 10q - 20u in like 5 mins yesterday morning.

Yes the devs already know we have to wait until LG decides to drop the 20u kernel source which is what is needed to make the adjustments needed so that it can boot the 4.2 bootloader which has the Loki exploit for us to be able to flash roms/kernels and after the source is dropped the devs will be able to make the d800 kernel support knock code with screen off

The OTA system is completely broken. EU phones have had 9 Nougat updates already. just get to marshmallow B11, then update to Nougat B09
A quick question from being new to the Axon 7, will this relock my bootloader, and or will I lose my ability to root? I'm on B32, but downgraded bootloader with toolkit, and am rooted with SuperSU. I am loving my Axon 7, having had it 1 month. Previous phone was a POS Sony xperia z4, and the Axon blows it away.

No, and never lock it. You'll end up with a brick if you ever lock the bootloader without getting the phone completely functional and 100% stock (recovery, system)
Thankyou, I never intend to or want it locked. So I assume all I'll have to do after the update is re-flash superSU?:good:

Again. The OTA system is completely broken.
Just take an official zip from the Download Center. It's there for a reason you know
Other than the security patches, seems like a very light update. Does anyone have it yet? Are the improvements mostly under the hood or is there anything actually noticable?
I'm mostly looking forward to Oreo and hopefully fixing the metadata Bluetooth problem.
Nothing noticeable. Updated security patch to December.
As someone that uses auto night light. It is broken now. It is no longer automatic at least with boot password. Have not tried without yet.
If i'm rooted and bootloader unlocked what will happen if I accept the update?
