https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/uppercut-lgup-loader-g5-variants-t3511295 donwload uppercut and lgup from here. unzip the uppercut, run it, if it gives you an error that it cant find it in users...roaming bla bla, just copy uppercut in the folder the program wants and it will run fine. then after pluging your device in, open uppercut, select your kdz file and chose upgrade not forbish or fota upgrade or something. i however had the h85020a variant of the firmware. there is 10c and 10e or something. anyway, if u know thats your model just go for it as i said earlier.

Try to recovery your phone by LG mobile support tool
1. Download LG mobile support tools from LG web site. http://www.lg.com/us/support-mobile/lg-P769
2. Boot your phone to SW upload mode
3. Start LG mobile support tool.
4. Connect your phone with usb cable. LG mobile support should detect your phone model. If not please reinstall LG usb drivers.
5. In LG mobile support tools, select "Customer support" > "Recover phone"
4. New dialog popup ask for IMEI or S/N. Your IMEI should already fill in textbox just click first button.
5. Wait for LG flash program to load kdz from their server and flash your phone. It should work.
Just put on the Chinese android!!!
All that did was put on the chinese android i need a way to flash it

What do you mean "crashing"? What excatly happens?
Once i enter in the correct KDZ file i press start it says unpacking then the prgaram stops working
I have tried this on other computers also
If u can give me a step by step version on how to use the KDZ updater program that would help
My phone is the LG P765 or P760 running Android 4.0.4

You can also try to download again KDZ file, maybe file which you try to use is corrupted.

You cannot flash a ota if you have root and moreover if you have twrp.
So if you want to update you have to manually flash the firmware via lgup.

tried it via USB Through LG Bridge but it gets to 80% then says unable to update?

Strange, tried with lgup as i suggested?
Sent from my LG G5 using XDA Labs
LGUP not recognizing my model ? "you have to select a known model, please" is this only for the G4 And LG Bridge for G5?
:Edit , didn't have the right .msi downloaded with it , recognized now will post back results
LGup is working with the G5. Just remember to boot with vol+ button pressed.

Please help complete and utter newbie on how to update his rooted LG V10 to Android 7

I have a LG V10 F600L running on Android 5.1.1.
I bought this phone used and when I bought it, it was already rooted. I don't have any experience with this sort of thing and I don't really want my finances to be burdened with replacing a phone if I accidentally brick it.
I know its a lot to request but can anyone take the time tell me how exactly I should proceed? What steps should I take? what guides I should follow? etc.
I have literally never touched the technical aspects of a phone's OS and firmware, etc. in my life before. But I really do want to update and will follow all instructions and precautions.
Thank you in advance

theres 3 ways i beleive . ive only used KDZ file buton G4.
first one is to go to settings/ then go to about phone in there check for software update.. make sure you have full battery. and check for updates.. if you find something calle V30 thats nougat if its V20 its MM. and V10 its LP.
the other its to download LG bridge.. you connect your phone and i beleive it should scan for updates or you manually find the update software somewhere .. never used this program..
the other is to manually do it. download the KDZ for you F600L youll get a zip file... then unzip it.
then search for LGUP. follow instructinos to install its only 2 files.. install .dll and program i believe..
then turn off phone.. back up all needed files or pictures
once phone turned off pres vol up.. then insert usb cable.
open LGUP and upgrade should be ticked.. theres a box there and i think bin is ticked.. un tick it... next to it 3 dots click on that and it should allow you to browse for file .. find the KDZ you downloaded and selected the unzipped file. once selected you should see the name of
KDZ there.. now close program... then open it again.. this time tick refurbished.. and click start.. let it finish takes like 15 mins or less.
KDZ files choose the correct variant for your phone.. https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v10/general/lg-v10-f600l-f600k-f600s-android-n-7-0-t3611676
ive only used the LGUP method..
good luck
is there any real danger of bricking my phone?
Also, how do I do it so that I can root my phone too?

H870DS Oreo arrived and fine

Easy update using LG Bridge after backing up. Didn't need backup as update left everything ok (incl. Microsoft launcher). Now V20a-TWN-XX.
Allgood then, but struggling to notice a difference. Maybe a little quicker!
Nope for 870DS Indonesia

In this site site you can not only see any update to H870DS, as well as to download the installation package:
https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h870ds-firmwares/
Updated mine a while ago. So far so good!
H870DS HKG-XX v20a
No ota, via LG Bridge
Updated my H870DS-TWN a few days ago, clean install via LG bridge.
No problems and nothing really extraordinary, except maybe the ability to hide the nav keys, which is less useful than I used to think. When hidden, you have to make one extra move to bring them back. Using a third party gesture control app solves the problem.
Has anyone noticed any change in battery performance or idle standby drain since updating their H870DS to Oreo? Additionally, has anyone found any problems or issues on this model since updating? I also have Taiwan version and want to check that the update is stable before I pull the trigger on it.

I had the same issue while using (with lg up and uc) Singapore rom on my indian lg DS last night and managed to recover successfully.
I made it to switch to download mode immediately after resetting while in stuck welcome screen.
Steps.
1. Keep pressing power + volume d to reboot.
2. Immediately press volume up while the usb is inserted and your official lg bridge running in your laptop and set to flash recovery mode.
3. LG bridge should recognise and start downloading the latest firmware from server and flash on your phone.
4. You may need to do factory reset after a successful flash n reboot because it might throw exceptions after booting (mine had from the process settings).

I have already tried to upgrade this beta version a few times, however, I always have an SPC error at the beginning of the process (c.a. 4%). I searched around xda and found out that this error is attributed to "a wrong version" - but this should be impossible as I am using H873.

Mostly Occurs when you have LG Bridge. I also got that error uninstalling LG bridge resolved it.

You should be using H87320i in order to update. Please make sure you have correct drivers and you are using LGUP version I provided. In order to update your phone should be on the home screen and sometime Lg bridge also cause trouble
I have H871 that has been converted to H873 by installing the Canadian Oreo ROM. Is it possible for me to upgrade to pie using this tutorial?
I've never installed lg bridge.
I'm wondering if it only works with specific carriers. If I click firmware update the phone reboots and trying to do a firmware update just to see.
No matter what I get the mtp error when trying install this firmware.
I'm in Canada
H7320i software version.
Is it possible to install on h87320c?
I am using H87320i, flashed using LGUP+Uppercut few months ago. I uninstalled LG bridge and tried to use new version of LGUP + a newer LGUP_common.dll, however, always have an error : 0x2000 open port error.
This seems to be related to the LGUP_common.dll, but I already tried to use few different files (versions) downloaded from different sources, the error is still there. (Note that driver is working fine as I can access my phone using PC/laptop).
@harib12: can you please upload the dll file you used?

If you are already using H873 stock rom then it should be fine however, I will not take responsibility for your action. Compatibility mainly depends on hardware similarity.

It should be didn't try but it is FOTA. An OTA requires a sequence. However, as you are pushing this using LG UP maybe you have some luck. But I suggest flashing H8732oi KDZ.

If You're following this tutorial your phone should show a FOTA screen then it should boot. It is an open FOTA and not restricted to carriers. and are you using the links i have given? do you install any Common dll?. If yes remove the common dll as your using upper cut.
I use this tutorial and LG UP tell me a message that have a problem with dll.
Can you help me.

You didn't replace the model folder and LGUP in C drive properly. Don't use the folder you downloaded to start the program.
