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.

Well, I notice the site offering that download is not official LG. So maybe someone's screwing with us.

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.

Just received the update OTA in my LG RS988. Yet to install but it contains the latest security updates from Google and other usability stuff.
Yes, here too. I can't get it to install... keep getting bounced out to TWRP

Guess we'll have to hope that someone can grab it and create a zip to flash.
I have the "dlpkgfile" file from /cache/fota
Who wants it?

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.

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.

I'm thinking their still deciding on updating the bootloader for carrier specific ,like what sprint is doing, as the betas are still on 4 while sprint is on 5 for android n ,so customers can't unlock with out having to go through the company

I dont have a link but have been running for a few days. after disabling 'Device Health' is has been running great. Good battery life, far better than I was getting on BRA1.
AT&T just pushed the March security update, I am still wondering why bother with it if Oreo is close..

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.

No because the model numbers are different
Sadly still no us99720a kdz.
US Cellular still claims they are waiting on the "software to be released" to push Oreo to their LG G6.

?? 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.
Hello, I recently got on the Oneplus family. Went with the 7T pro.
Just noticed on oneplus software support that latest version is 10.0.10 however I dont have any OTA. I know i can download it but i prefer the OTA.
Anyone in the U.k got this 10.0.10 OTA yet or know when it will drop for us in the good old U.k?
Thanks

Unfortunately my computer situation is a little troublesome atm so would just prefer the OTA. I still haven't got the OTA. I wonder if it's different phases or so?

Is that a safe way? I'm a bit wary and always prefer the OTA. I'm happy to wait for it to drop if it's in phases as i'm not in a rush. I was just wondering why my phone isn't able to find the update through the system update?

The ota is downloadable through the app. Then you go to system updates then press menu and select local then pick the file. You could also rebrand to an eu or global firmware this way

Thank you I will give this ago if the OTA doesnt come soon.
Performance took a slight hit coming from 10.0.9 for me. Don't bother, you're not really missing much.

Download to your phone from the official update UK website. The instructions are at the bottom of the page.
