Received update today, guessing just a security patch
VS99029A
Meh, this phone didn't get as much development as I would have liked. for me root is getting less and less important. Back in the day we could almost double our battery life etc with custom roms. It feels like the glory days of custom roms is in the past.

Bummer, just a security patch. I hope we get nougat since T-mobile has it.
Looks like nougat may be right around the corner. Update on the opensource website, nougat listed as 30a.

That's awesome!
I actually tried to compile but what do you know stupid Verizon has a locked bootloader so I wasn't able to install it. UGH, I hope Verizon eventually gets taken to court or something for these ridiculous amount of restrictions. For example, the unlimited data plan with throttling, wtf....
Strange , i cannot update to this v29a ? App founds it ( download it ) and it's in the vrz-lgvs990 folder ... but when i click for update check .. nothing , no new updates found ?
Anything about this ?
reinstall of the app fixed the issue.

Are you talking about through LG Bridge?
If so, how did you get it to recognize your phone? I've tried all kinds of drivers, and it won't recognize.

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...

in the meanwhile could others with a L9 P768 model confirm whether or not they've received an ota update yet

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?
Thanks

LG US997 just updated.
https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-us997-firmwares/#more-4590
File name: US99715a_05_0908.kdz
Model: LGUS997
Operating system: Android 7.x Nougat
Whats new?
Android version 7.0
Security patch level Sept 1, 2017
Build # NRD90U
Seems like I finally have Face Unlock and Mini View options (they didn't show up for me in 13a or 14a). Looks pretty much the same otherwise.
I would really like to see Do Not Disturb Until Next Alarm get put back in.
I wonder why I haven't gotten this update. US997 still stock 14a. Tried to manually check for updates but it says I'm on the current version.

No, it's legit. I just updated to 15a by using LG Bridge. It took about an hour to download and update. I didn't lose any data, but also backed up first just in case.

Good to know. Currently I can't apply .kdz files directly due to not having a Windows computer at hand, so I'll have to try it later when I have a Windows box handy or wait for some kind soul to create a flashable zip. But it's good to hear you've applied it successfully. Is it worth the effort?

Not sure. The only difference I noticed was the mini view option, which I doubt I'll use, and Sep security patch. I'm hoping this is also a prep for Oreo.
I received the OTA for 15a... Will edit when I get a chance to download and install.

Installed last night.
Very nice... Was hoping for a bump up in Android version, but I didn't really expect it.
How consistent has LG been with the US models of this phone?
so i couldn't find anything posted already, if this is the wrong place for this feel free to let me have it.
ok so i flashed this from twrp everything seems to be running ok, EXCEPT, ALL my google apps (maps, gmail, chrome and something i'm forgetting) keep shutting down. i'm happy to just uninstall using TB but it seems like this is systemic of something wrong.
any help would be appreciated.
All the current/past Oreo's will be located here:

Actually Verizon looks to be the first to be trying to push the update
Verizon pulled the change log, it was just the April update. I wonder why they would bother to push the April update if the Oreo update was close, that tells me Verizon is going to screw the S7's on Red.

Posts on Reddit say the one being released in Europe is ERD5. I would hope the US market would be the same. I'm holding off flashing CRD6.
Here is what someone at US Cellular told me over chat today... Who knows if they know anything or not.
"At this time Android has not released the Oreo software for the LG G6. Once it becomes available it will be on our website"
Still waiting for it. ?
I tweeted at them a few weeks ago and got an answer that they didn't have any information about an update.
https://twitter.com/johnWayne007/status/994088970312192000
On a separate side note, are you on 16b or 16c?
You could wait for the us997 version for Oreo when they release it and flash it I have flashed the nougat versions and it works great!
I have been on 16c for some while now. Battery life sucks with this phone. Some days while at work and connections are weak/switching all the time I get maybe 1.5 hours SOT. Other wise I manage 3 hours average.

?? Just got done chatting with their support. They told me the same thing ?.
US Cellular is terrible when it comes to updating or upgrading Android software. I once waited a whole year, year and a half to get an update to the next Android version on a device ?. They really need to pick up the ball when handling software updates ?.
I just got Oreo OTA pushed to my US997U today. Running smoothly so far.
Still haven't gotten the update on my US Cellular G6. Also there still isn't a kdz either.
?? Here is what LG sent me when I got in contact with them through email after previously chatting with multiple US Cellular support staff about the Android Oreo update for the LG G6.
