i'm planning to buy a new phone and this one is one of the choices ....
i'm outside US, and i knew that H820 is factory unlocked and their LTE bands are compatible with my region, also i knew it's and AT&T model IIRC..
one thing i didnt get is the unlocking code is giving after purchasing , and i dont know if it's easy or hard to use for someone outside US.
does it got N upgrade or not yet ? this is one of the important features i want and i'd feel bad if it's not upgraded till now -or sometimes in the future-
any other thing i should know bout?
no one knows or the mobile is not popular here?

Just checked to see if mine had an update yet, and it does. I'm in the process of downloading right now. (1505mb update) so hopefully this is what it is. Haven't looked around to see if anybody else on 820 has it yet.
Don't even have root yet.

This phone has pretty good size community. A lot of them are in root section.

Can you please upload the KMZ somewhere ?
I am not AT&T client but have H820, so I can't OTA update ...
Thanks !

The correct answer is No. While this "leaked firmware" seams to have fixed the GPS issue we do not know when it will be pushed out. Based on what I am seeing, it appears to be early beta quality. Figure a couple weeks to flush out issues, ship to the carriers, then the a couple weeks for them to certify it before pushing it out....basically I would say at least a month. However, this "leaked" firmware could be old as well and the carriers may already have it and we could start getting update notices tomorrow. The answer is, nobody on this forum actually knows.

Thank for your reply and i know no one here know for sure when it will come but then again i thought someone has more latest news then myself
Has anyone ripped the GPS fix from the leaked rom? I would like to try it but don't want to flash to the leaked firmware.

For you. I get unavailable messages. So its not a "for sure" thing. Unless i am doing it wrong.
GPS does not work for me either. After flashing I am seeing 12 satelites. All sats have an snr of 15-25 with zero locked.
I was able to get into lbstestmode using a market app called any cut. All of my settings are set to stock.
It appears that this update is not 100%. If anyone has any suggestions I'm all ears.
op, if you are asking a question please put a question mark in your title so you dont waste peoples time with misleading thread titles. thanks

Join the party. We're all waiting. No need to be confused - it's simply not there. Flash the UK ROM, seems to be working just fine for most here...
Flash the UK version. Works perfectly and it's awesome.

Not skilled enough to flash it sadly was just wondering why no update is available if it was out was all.

You don't need much in the way of skills. Just follow the instructions. It's not at all difficult. You can find them on sammobile.com

Our Lg G2's are compatible per this website as well...
I haven't seen any increase in my area yet (greenville, sc) even though it's listed on verizon's site as one of the initial cities. Anyone else noticed a difference in their dl speed?
I just got off the phone w/ a verizon rep who said that there is nothing we have to do... a software update will be pushed to the phone. I am assuming this won't be the case for those of us who have a custom rooted device so it will be up to our devs!

And please correct me if I'm wrong, but if we have a custom recovery on stock then I'd have to either revert to full stock or wait for a dev?

More than likely just an updated modem...shouldn't take devs very long to make a rec flash version
Odd. The article was written well over a month ago and I'm just seeing/hearing about it now. So it's as if we're already benefiting from it, yet I haven't heard any dev mention anything about it or about including it in their rom. Maybe there is nothing for them to update, no?

Pretty much this. As long as you have at least the 12b modem that is all you need. Its been active in the NYC area for months now.

I believe it was the 24b modem that enabled AWS, but either way it was since this past winter.

Hi everyone,
Root is coming. Im getting my aboot back now and going to make a kdz. There is a huge chance that your phone could break so I'm really looking for somebody who is either under warranty or doesn't care about their v10 because they have a new phone. I can't do it because this is my daily phone and I don't have warranty. Any help would be great. Message below

You have warranty or your highly aware that this hasn't been tested and if it fails it could be a complete brick?
So, nobody tested it yet?
What do you want to test?
Just the root?
TWRP?
both

It's a tot that will give you TWRP to then root. But there is not guarantee this will work

dm me, let's chat over hangouts
Are you still in need of testing? I just got this V10 from Verizon as replacement for my 1st V10 bootlooping. Soooo I've got 90 days full warranty plus tmp if needed.
Let me know I'm down to test. I understand that I'll most likely create a brick or that I need to adopt that mindset as its a possibility. That's okay with me.

Hmmm I'm half tempted I have a few spare phones laying around just in case of brick.

I've no spare phones but not having root on the same phone I had root on is driving me a little insane. Factor in the possible bootloader unlock and it's potential and I don't care if I have to use a 15 dollar flip phone for awhile.
I'm just unaware of the testing situation. If its needed yet or not and if so if it's ready for testing???

it's not done yet! It should be in the next few days and idk what i'm going to be getting first. We are doing two different theroies
I'm in for testing if you need more : ), this phone will be awesome with stock android.
I have a T-Mobile s9+ and for the life of me, I cannot get the OEM unlock button to show in Dev options. I've had my phone for over the 7 days, as I saw you need. I've even tried doing the "change the date manually and restart" trick and no luck.
Is there no option for the T-Mobile version of this phone and it's already OEM unlocked? Can I just go ahead and root my phone without issue? Or do I need to get that button before I can go ahead and root/install a new rom?
If you have the G965U, no you will not be able to unlock the boot loader.. My oppinon, is when all manufactures were done stealing ideas from dev's live here on XDA.. They decided they did not need them anymore and locked the phones down.

You can install GSI, but they have the same downsides that the default oreo root ROM included has, if not more. I'm on 10 too lol. I tested it, played around with it then went back to stock. It was neat.

I mean the good thing about this method is that it doesn't unlock bootloader, so it doesn't trip knox. The bad thing about not unlocking bootloader is that you can't install custom kernels or recoveries.
