In developers settings, in the t-mobile version, there is automatic system updates enabled. I advise to turn that off until we figure out the bootloader and root!

Thank you did this with my Verizon version just now
Getting my g6 within 24 hours... First LG phone ive had. Coming from s7 edge (hate the edges)
What is the likelyhood that unlocking bootloader and root will end up happening at some point? I know it may be a while, I can't wait to see that wonderful TWRP screen again! (Had Nexus 6 before s7 edge)

We are trying. It will be unlocked but it is the matter of time. LG removes the fastboot commands on their phones so we found a couple of potential solutions that we'll have to test.

I got a new Elephone S8 about a week ago, and it's having a glitch that's happened 3 different times. The touch screen becomes unresponsive for around 20 minutes, and after restarting it will work again but it always says the battery is at 1% when it had a full charge before the issue happened. Has anybody else encountered this? I'm terrified that one time the touch screen won't come back. It doesn't seem to be a hardware issue, but some type of glitch. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Elephone S8 touch screen stop working
I have the same problem, I even managed to put ERAGON ROM and again the same thing, the screen just stops working, I even think it has no rules when it will work, and when it does not.
Not here. It seems to me that some folks got units with flaky digitisers. If it were just firmware, I suspect everyone would have the issue.
To share experience with the problem, touch screen stops working!
I returned via Flash Tool to 01701018 release official and then> flash root> flash twrp. Then I installed "magisk manager 16" and for now the cellular phone works for 2 days, since it will not have a SIM card while testing the touch screen lock. I will let you know guys... :angel:
That's what I'm planning on doing today: returning my phone to original rom. Has it happened anymore since you downgraded?

If that's the case, I would need to replace the entire screen, correct? A new one is $50, and I only paid $175 for the new phone! I just don't know if that's worth it

In my case, even the SIM card has no connection to the effect of locking the touch screen of a cell phone, it is always the same problem. The screen simply does not work when it does not work. "It seems to me that some people get units with dirty digitizers?" I have no idea...
Hardware defects should be covered under the phone's warranty... And if it's soon enough after purchase, by the shop where you bought the phone.
Best of luck to you!
This seems way passed overdue. I've tried manually updating with no luck. Has anyone else been experiencing the same issue?
Same here, smartswitch and ota see nothing. Gonna probably need to use odin to get it done.
Do you guys check on setting , system UPDATE (manual mod )

Yeah I've tried manually updating. This seems ridiculous that I still haven't received the update; and I'd prefer not to root the phone...
Yes. No update for me either. I heard it's possible the date your imei was activated could impact your update. I activated mine on Feb 14th.
Same. No update. I usually do all updates for apps and system manually. Still nothing...

Temporarly on Hold.
T-Mobile stopped the OTA Oreo update right now for Note 8. This is due to problems with this update. Samsung and Google are working on a fix. Once they fixed the problems then they will resume OTA Oreo update for the Note 8.
I posted this in another thread days ago. If you have questions or you feel there is no problem, since you didn't have any problems this far, then read my post on the other thread.

My wife and I both received the update before the hold. Did they say why they stopped the update?

I charge my phone using the 2.0 amp wireless charger (I have a few scattered around) and I haven't noticed ANY heat change. In fact, I'd say the phone is cooler if anything. When I tried to update to Oreo by connecting to the computer (Smartswitch), I got Error 807******(don't remember) repeatedly, so I gave up and updated OTA.
I got tired of waiting and updated to Oreo via Odin. Haven't noticed any major issues.
I think T-Mobile stopped the OTA update because of battery life. I received the update on April 2nd and battery life is pretty bad for me. I only get 3Hrs 45min screen on time. Deleted a lot of apps that I don't use but didn't help much only get 4hrs screen on time. I also had to turn off Always on Display which I hate to do because I was use to looking at the screen without unlocking the phone.

where you got the Oreo update willing to share it on Google Drive or something that doesnt make you wait 20+ hours?
Hello all. My wife and I have note 8 and I received the update and she did not. My phone is working better than before. Her phone is acting up, random question been out of the scene for quite some time. If I flash via Odin will that trip knox?

No. Flashed mine via odin a few weeks ago and didn't trip the Knox counter.
Sent from my [device_name] using XDA-Developers Legacy app
just got mine update yesterday.
Just got mine, the new build number is CRD7, not really sure what's new compared to the last oreo update, but that 1.3 GB update installed surprisingly fast.
I have a S9 SM-G960U (Sprint) that began to have unusually high battery drain a couple weeks ago. It was a 3 or 4 day issue and one evening it then rebooted out of the blue, restarted OK and was fine. Then, about 15 minutes later rebooted again and got stuck at the S9 Android screen, now just restarts continuously. I cant enter any recovery mode, ect...only the download screen. I have let the battery drain, used Odin to reinstall current SW version, as it refuses to allow a rollback to original version, saying SW revision mismatch on the screen I believe....
I've tried Odin patched, and 3.12.7, but still can only install current or more recent uploads of the software, but no matter what, after the successful install using Odin, it restarts into the same loop....never getting to the SAMSUNG screen. In the threads I have seen where this issue has been successfully resolved, it seems like the factory software needs installed, but I can not get it to allow me to do this....
Any ideas beyond what I have tried?

I no longer have that phone. But if it is unlocked, inseritng your carrier sim then setting up all over again, should do the trick.. That is how I manage to get rid of T-mobile at the time and it was all Sprint after that.. Of course that was long before the merger.
The phone was working with Consumer Cellular , but when the switched to shorter wavelength[4-5G], they said my phone would not work! They supposedlly tried. I did manage to update phone to 10 through Smart Switch! But even after that they could'nt load C.C. in right! They seem to say because my phone does not have that Volt 4-5 g capability! Guess what I need is to get rid of the Verizon on phone so I can upgrade to volt or 4g capabilities! EITHER THAT or C.C. is lying to me so I will buy a new phone! Funny I have a onocular microscope and can fix computer's or phones in a basic manor but can't figure this out! Lol! Price for being an old guy!Thank's for your reply D.D.
Hi guys.
I'm quite new here so forgive me if I put the post in the wrong place.
Let me try to describe my issues with my phone.
A couple months ago I got a new LG V60 from my wife (brand new but without warranty).
The first problem I noticed after a few days was that the fingerprint scanner wasn't working properly. I mean everyone can unlock my phone after a few tries placing finger on the scanner at an angle.
When I try to unlock the phone by fingerprint it takes ages (it's very difficult to unlock the phone for the first time). I was trying remove saved fingerprint and create a new one but the problems is still there.
Another problem is with losing signal from satellites when using navigation. I was trying Google maps, Sygic and TomTom and it's look like the Google works best but there is still problem with signal, quite often I get information about 'searching position'.
Next one is that the phone is freeze sometimes and I have to restart it to work properly. It's happening around once a week.
I was trying hard reset but it didn't fix it, then I downloaded the original firmware with android 10. I don't know if it helped because I got lots of updates and it ended up on the Android 12 again. At the beginning of use after this operation the phone was working better but after a couple of weeks the same problems came back.
I'd like to add if I want to do a back up I get information like this "the required google certificate has been deleted". On Android 10 this information wasn't appearing.
Do you have guys any idea what's wrong with this phone?
Thank you in advance.

I also have the v600TM on Android 10. I have had no problems with the fingerprint except after the first time I unlocked the bootloader (see 1st post for the fix). I did not allow an update to Android 11 or 12. Maybe you should try the fingerprint on A10 for awhile before moving to 12.
Hopefully you don't have one of those Chinese refurbs pretending to be new!

Hi
Thank you for the reply.
Maybe you right and I should try to use the phone on android 10 and see if it's works properly. I'll see what happens.
Do you know when android 13 will be available for V60?
As a owner of the V30, V40 I'm really disappointed of the V60 now.

Hi,
You're welcome. When you are new to a forum or group, its like you are invisible.
My current main phone is the V30. The V60 has been more difficult than past phones to configure the way I want. When I installed TWRP a few months ago it was a DISASTER! Installing MicroG (to replace google play services) has also not worked out well. I have limited funds and I am beginning to wonder if the V60 was a good choice.
There is already an Android 13 beta for some versions of the V60.
The thing with V60 is that it is newer than V30. So a lot of fixes are not fully cooked. With LG gone from the scene, there is no incentive for developers to pursue it with any dedication. I don't know if TWRP will be fully built for this phone.

I do remember how slow the V30 was in the beginning. Now the V30 has a bunch of ROMs and an OFFICIAL LineageOS! I hope the V60 goes the same way. I doubt it, though.

Hi guys
It's me again with another problem
As for the above problems that I wrote about, I decided not to do anything about it for now and patiently wait for the android 13 update and see what happens.
How happy I was when two days ago I received the opportunity to download the update.
The joy did not last long, as it turned out that I'm unable to download the update.
Previously, I got information like 'The phone is being use and update will be downloaded later' (or something similar). Now the update downloads for a while and pops up 'Installation problem' and cannot be downloaded (always in the same time). I restarted the phone, deleted apps, changed from WiFi to mobile data and still the same.
Do you have guys any ideas what can I do with it?
As far as I know the phone is from US (T-mobile) and I live in the UK.
Thank you in advance for your help

How to check if the bootloader is unlocked?
As I said before I haven't done anything yet with the phone as I was waiting for the update but I'd like to check it, maybe the bootloader was already unlocked
emillo83 said:

When the phone is starting up (after being off or rebooting) it will say something like: This phone cannot be checked for corruption. Lock the bootloader.
If the bootloader is locked I suggest you backup before doing a factory reset.
