Lg g5 v10n update

Just had v10n update come through dated Oct 07. Wondering if anyone has installed this yet and noticed much of a difference . I can't see anything out there aabout it . Huge file 514 mb. States improvement through value pack what ever that is and also usability and functionality improvements. Shame the N does not stand for nougat
What is your model?
I got 2 days ago, its just a security update, with a few bug fixes, nougat will be named v20, and i believe the g5 get to test it in November
Please state your variant. H850? H860? Etc. Thanks.
Hi it is a h850

When is LG going to release Nougat on H840 (SE) ?

Hello, any notice on when is it going to be Nougat available on the Lg g5 se?
Or it will never come?
Greetings
I checked the LG Bridge and got a 1.59GB update this morning - was super excited it was going to be 7.0 but after it finished, all it was was camera enhancements (and I think Feb 17 security update - all though it wasn't listed) - a big file and it ends up being a let-down. My LG G5 se remains on 6.0.1 I have to say, LG are pretty useless with updates (especially OTA) - My Moto Z and Sony X both got 7.0 weeks/months ago. BTW i'm in the UK

Hello! Im going to give it a try right now just to see if i have it available to download. I bought this device in the Czech Republic.
May I tell you that last week I called via Skype to LG USA and asked for the status of the update and the operator ( in a very tired way or sound) told me that updates for G5/G5se are now availabe, but it doesn't seem to be right by the moment.
And one last thing, please: Could you tell me the software version you have? Mine is V10a-234-30
Greetings
EDIT: As of 03/05/2017 Lg bridge says that this update is to improve camera functionality before updating
same number but v10b. would take whatever LG say with a pinch of salt, think the G5 has been updated but not the se. I've never received an ota from LG, always through LG bridge

Yeah, you're right. I have now updated the device and it says v10b... besides from that I actually consider that the camera app or the camera itself are the same as in the previous version, didn't see any changes at all except from the android security thing.

based on files on lg-firmwares: 7.0(4020x files) for H840(LG G5 SE) exist in South/Central America since December of last year, and mid.East since February of this year. but European firmware still missing
Do you guys have an italian h840? i have it and zero updates since i got it. Last security patch is from september 2016

Yeah, yesterday finally i got a message in lg bridge about software update. Its a huge piece of somekind thing called "patch" it take about 1.94 gb. Cant really get it why there delaying security patches for a long time
Do you guys know what it do improve? did you get the same patch to download?

Its what i said above
yesterday also get this security patch for 6.0x, but it was much smaller - aprox 450MB(patch itself from 22/02/2017, while security patch from 1/02/2017) - 2 weeks to deploy it to end users, and 3 weeks for build/internal tests.
with such speed I don't expect 7.0 in next month or two
After the last patch via lg bridge i guess the battery now is a little better in terms of active screen time.
But we still lose much in standby mode.
After little research i made ..Guys, i guess no european h840 lg5se models exist yet.. they are all for latino american market?? So we can flash any nougat rom on our devices released in South America ?? Im not sure just my thoughts

You can if you want, one kdz file from mexico has the telcel(carrier) logo, besides from that its ok works fine. The other from turkey was for every unlocked phone out there, it doesnt have fm radio and works as good as the other.
Im going to keep waiting till the year ends. If this phone doesnt get updated, i will manually do it with these kdz files

it's was only one issue with American ROM - it was possible to lost warranty in EU with such firmware.
but since Yesterday(2017/03/09) on LG firmware present EU/UK H84010b_00_OPEN_EU_OP_0222.kdz firmware - it was mention on begin of this topic, so it's possible to return to original region
it's a bit off-topic, but Google Assistant appear on H840 even on Android 6.0 (but only in English language).

G6+ Officialy announced, and a new update coming

All I have to say is already in the title, here is the news: http://www.fonearena.com/blog/22299...-g6-32gb-version-in-new-colors-announced.html
So:
- New colors for the normal model
- New G6+ with wireless charging and 128GB of storage
- New big update
Wonder if they will put back the various things they stripped out of the European model of the G6.

Most likely still 7.0 but with the mentioned additions. LG pretty much never do an OS update unless it is to an entirely new OS version.. Ie 7.0 to 8.0..
Ie LG "by history" don't do OS minor updates.. Just entire new OS.

not sure what to expect, but I... 1) hope it lives up to expectations, doesn't break my phone and 2) gives me a path to downgrade and flash custom rom if it sucks.
What's up with the h860 update.. Been sick and tired of waiting
Still waiting for H850
Any news for the rs988?
So I have a quick question, I currently don't use a Verizon sim on my G5 but it's the Verizon variant, will I still get the Oreo update ?

I don't use the Verizon variant, rather, a normal LG G5 SE. When I attempt to fetch a software update via LG Bridge, it simply says something along the lines of 'LG Bridge is busy, reconnect'.
I've checked for an update using my phone and there's nothing. What should I do?
