H870 - European Update - LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion

Update 19 December 2017:
I've just updated through LG Bridge. I have come to following conclusions:
- My data, media and apps still exist. Nothing deleted
- Bridge will download massive 3GB of firmware
- Bridge didn't like my wifi so I used my neighbor wifi that downloaded the firmware successfully. However I don't know why I got server error at my own wifi
- I can't see any changes. Just a november patch which is still better than July
So I got this response from LG:
This is a staff of LG Product Security Response Team(LG PSRT).
First of all, we apologize for late security patch.
As I know, the latest version (for European) is also July.
According to our dedicated team, there will be a security patch for your LG G6 H870 within the end of December.
Thanks for your patience.
Regards,
LG PSRT

What does that even mean? Which security patch will we receive? Any mention of Android 8?

Security patch: August

What a ****ing excuse!I really miss my Nexus 6P...camera..software...updates...

I think i'm going to sell my G6 after Christmas.. Will buy a Xiaomi Mi A1!

Ohh good that "you think" it will be oreo. That's a relief

Yeah, the LG updates is kinda a joke. The hardware is good and all, but we're still running the same 7.0 that it was launched with some 9 months ago. I'm just waiting for stable LOS.

As I said, very nice! I'd actually been missing those icons.
Would you consider making a version with the Nexus grey background instead of all black as well? While keeping the icons and the accent color.
Oh, and if you do, I wouldn't mind seeing a slight background change for the separator row in the settings. Just like the default white theme handles it, but in a dark grey of course.

Haha I know, wrong thread. Mobile messup. ?

Oreo on LG in 2017 ? impossible
but August security patch ! probably

I'm wondering if anyone from LG read this thread
So many happy people here who wait for August security update in December.
In think we should be happy in the end of the day. Oreo? C'mon if you want it, go to some grocery store and get it [emoji3]

Nordic LG G6 updates
Well I just asked LG Finnish customer service why the security updates are still at july 1st on my LG G6 that I bought a week ago. My 2+ years old phone I switched from had newer security updates.
First response was basically "unfortunately we dont know this as Google is responsible for the updates... Please inquire Google about this."
When I complained about this and pointed them to LG's own website at (cannot post links yet)
https lgsecurity.lge.com/security_updates.html
I got a snarky reply saying that as I can probably read from the page the updates are irregular at some regions etc.
And that getting updates in Finland means all the Nordic countries and their operators have to test the update first before its released here.
They said an update is coming, but did not specify "which" update. Blah. Not very good customer service either.

Like Sony Phones I swear I will add LG to the not buy list in the future Permanently. I'm responsible for the Hardware buying here at our company and we have removed LG also for now. Next year we will be upgrading to Motorola as they seems to fulfill our budget and security updates

Hearing it and not from LG probably means that we still have no info at all on this, just some random G6 spotted in benchmarks...

Well, for being one of the first to roll out updates, LG is dropping the ball.
OnePlus and Nokia are rolling out updates.
Essential and Samsung has betas
And LG has said nothing. Continuing disappointment.
That's what I got from LG via email:
"Thank you for contacting LG Customer Service in regards to your LG G6 phone.*
I have taken a look into your query and as of yet, we currently do not have any time frames or exact dates for when Android 8.0 will be released. We are testing on older models to see if it is compatable. However we have no information to give at this current point in time.*
I know this probably was not the answer you were expecting but as soon as we have any details regarding this, we will be more than happy to inform you!*"

Seems like this is the generic answer they provide to anyone who asks about the Oreo update
Exactly the same answer was sent to another user (ant78) from the LG V30 forum. I wouldn't be relaying on Customer Service of any mobile manufacturer... Similar type of answers I was getting back in the days when I had Samsung Galaxy S2. Turned out that two days later I got an update, where Customer Service had no specified date for the update
btw. Korean LG V30 got the Oreo update today
Well, LG just released the Oreo beta for the V30 and V30+ in Korea, and has previously said the final version will come in December, so hopefully that's good news for the G6 getting the update in a timely manner

It depends on what the timely manner means
Some of the sources like Androidauthority mentioned about having Oreo on G6 around October/November. It's almost the end of November and I doubt we'll see the update anytime soon

If you're phone is carrier locked, there is no warranty you will receive Oreo. For example Videotron in Canada are used to block updates.

Seriously?!?
This kind of practice should be denied! I think it's already a big mess with all those carriers and manufacturers who can't keep up with updating phones to the latest versions of Android. And I'm not saying about every device, but even flagship phones... which is a joke.
Ok I understand that it requires a lot of work (sometimes) to port, test and test new Android version, but I can't understand how come some of the phones are not getting security patches. LG seems to be a good example of this mess... H870 is stuck on July security update and we are almost at the end of the year
I wish all the phones were getting as quickly as Nexus/Pixels are getting... I wish I wish I wish...
The 'porting and testing' of a new android version by a carrier is, more often than not, just a case of adding some unwanted apps to the system.
The excuse of thorough testing is just an excuse for 'can't be bothered' just yet.

I totally agree with you. Updating software on already sold phones will not bring carriers new money, so not point in investing time and money into that. It's better to come up with new commercials, so people will buy more units.
In my opinion same story holds for the manufacturers who need to/want to grab as many users as they can, hence they put most of the effort into developing new models.
Was hoping to receive the update before Nov. ended but here we are. I at least hope something does come...
I'd be really freaking excited if the update drops this month.

Alternatives to Firmware Finder

Hello, since Firmware Finder cannot enforce updates anymore, is there any alternative that does not require root? Honor really sucks at delivering updates, in FF I can see version 8.1.0.143 while I'm still on 131, this was always a pain in the ass for Honor devices but previously I always thought "who cares, I can force it via FF", well now I do care and this will be my last Honor device if I can't get the updates to work.
Thanks for any advice.
I just hate people like you who keep trowing dirt at companies for this sh*t about updates.
143 was just released, not long ago, cant you have patience a bit?you have the previous version, so at what do they suck?you have june or july sec update i bet.

I'm sorry but if someone like Apple were to announce an iOS update for a specific day, you would expect it to be available on that day and it most likely would be. Honor told us that the update would be on August 3rd for the EU, yet here I am 3 days later in the UK unable to see 143/145. This would be relatively fine, if they hadn't made several posts on their Twitter accounts saying things like "update now!" and "have you updated yet?", and also made a competition on this very forum with a 10 day deadline, meaning if someone like me wanted to enter they would be 3 days behind anyone else already.

Sorry what? "certified by Google"? If the update has already come out in other regions/countries then surely it's already good to go, and the blame rests on Huawei/Honor for not pushing it to all the relevant regions/devices (which I'm sure they're able to do without doing it in waves, otherwise they wouldn't be telling everyone it's available now...)

Certification goes by country my friend. Thats the main reason why it goes in waves. If you are so much in rush you can use no check recovery and then you will see its not certified by Google . So yes its Google to blame because huawei have the update ready.

Really? It was my understanding that not being "certified by Google" was something that stopped your specific device from being updated, and that each manufacturer organised their own OTA updates (to me it doesn't make much sense for Google to be certifying Huawei, Samsung, etc. updates, as surely those companies have their own teams to test this stuff?).
Even so, I spoke with Honor customer service earlier today and all "Shane" could tell me was to "hold on". He even said he agreed that it's a bit silly for Honor to tell everyone it's available when really it isn't, but that there's nothing else they can do

Its not about huawei. Its about google security. Having or not their own team to test things doesnt mean they have access to google suite. Certification grants you access to google play, google pay and certain banking apps. If google did not check the updates for certain bugs, hacks etc then the update will stay on hold and as i said from country to country banking systems, telecommunication security systems are different.
Little miss leading social media , yes gpu boost is rolling out in certain regions this is normal practice for honor again it's region based batches at a time , the UK is always the last to get it , honor phones are not like say a OnePlus global device were as soon as a update rolls say in Canada first, you can set a VPN to Canada and download it even though your region hasn't got update yet , that would be nice but honor phones have tons of different region build numbers so unfortunately it's a waiting game for us in UK , I applied for the gpu boost beta and that wasn't being announced till 13th and haven't heard a thing since [emoji848]

FF doesnt have the current Firmware "C432E2R1P5" für my Honor 9

The world isn't work like this. Nobody enforced you to buy any Huawei devices.
If you want to make a complaint, then write to Google or to Donald Trump.

The world does work like this ,it's consumer protection. Nobody forces you to buy a contract / bill item but by law you have cooling off periods and protection when the item isn't as described. We could argue that the item is no longer as described due to losing access to official Android updates and applications
Sent from my VOG-L09 using Tapatalk
Worst thing is, if we opt to sell, no one will buy it due to these restrictions. I shave 3 years on this contract... Talk about D's
Huawei unlocks its devices, we install play store services and carry on
So what…. Trump is working on the next big Economic Crisis for the US... Huawei will found a Solution and have his own Appstore
Greetings Raffi
I am concerned about the updates
Finally my p30 pro feels so snappy with 153 that made me excited about Android q and Updates then this comes along
And is it going to effect the other Chinese manufacturers like OnePlus oppo xiaomi or not, these are the only ones left to provide us with the latest best tech without the redeculas 1000$+ that's becoming normal even for LG
Stupid
I am worried about this too, it also makes me think that if this news changes soon something like this could happen in the future because of the issues regarding huawei and America and also the UK where i am stopping Huawei from creating the 5G networks.
I happened to request a return for my P30 Pro within the 14 days period, i got sent the bag to send it back in, and says i have 30 days from when i made that request, i am within them 30 days still, so not i am really wondering if i should just send this phone back and get an S10?
Apparently this happened to ZTE before however they were reinstated again and approved. So time will tells
I think I have made my mind up, I have always been with Samsung, i was really loving OneUI on my s8+ before i got the p30 pro, i only got it as i thought i'd give it a go assuming it can't be that different, i have posted many bugs and annoyances here since getting the p30 pro, some of which i have fixed, some i can't, the EMUI software is really bad and doesn't seem well developed at all.
I think i will get an s10+
I don't care. I believe that Huawei most likely have the capacity to do their own firmware now. They'll do their own firmware and run their own app store. They're big enough now that they'll be able to make it work. Will be nice to have an alternative third ecosystem in the phone world.
I guess it's good bye now to any future security patches. Don't think Huawei's own OS would a viable alternative either. It's new and it will definitely have a lot of issues with third party apps compatibility for example, syncing to wear os devices.
Anyways, it was stated that current phones are not effected by this so i guess the main issue for us now would be upcoming security patches and firmware update.
Reckon the best option would be to sell it off.
Don worry guys...

Isn't android open source? The AOSP code for any future android OS will always be available. Huawei can always use androids open code into their devices for future security patches.
Google and 5 eyes are already spying on you. How come you don't care about that?
Huwaei phone will not recieve any android specifc code from Google , no more secutity updates , no more Google Play, no more APIs ,,,
Everthing is just blocked by US /Google now ,,
Huwaei journey in androd ends here as they will only have Aosp access which is plain deadland now days as most of the apis have migrated to Google play services

I think "Android one" is a dead project, at least for Xiaomi and continues to prove it in every way
How many of Android One phones from different manufacturers are on Android 10? Motorola One received it yesterday. More recent Motorola phones haven't received it yet. New phones from Nokia will get them in "between Q1 and Q2 2020".
How many monthly security updates got skipped by Xiaomi? I don't remember even one missing.
Just because you misunderstood Android One programme, it doesn't mean it's rubbish or dead. Xiaomi and other manufacturers are following Android One standards and they are roughly at the same position, none of them being much ahead of others.

There are like how many bugs on Android 9. 1 or 2? No new have been introduced, most got fixed.
Android 10 update was rushed mess, I agree with that. But you can blame mainly people like you, pushing on company to release update immediately, even if it's not ready. They shouldn't have listened, that was their mistake number one.
I keep repeating, they need to improve communication and be honest. It there's a delay, announce it. If there are unforeseen problems, fix them and apologize. This is the main area where they need a huge improvement. But it can be said about many other companies, Xiaomi is not the only one. It's no excuse, but there aren't many good examples out there (especially at this price point).

It may be that as you say, the problems of "Android one" are also common to other companies, but here we talk about Xiaomi and if it is true that it releases monthly security updates with a certain regularity, it is equally true that more than once introduced Bugs, without ever releasing an official Fix and without ever having corrected the main defect of the native WiFi on Android Pie in the Mi A2 lite and now it also appears in the Mi A2 with Android 10.
In addition, no one has forced Xiaomi to release a version upgrade, however, provided by the "Android one" program, without first having carried out the most basic checks with their "Beta testers".
As far as I am concerned, he would have done better first to fix all the defects widely documented in their firmware already in use, instead of combining all this useless mess.
The only fully functional Rom was the native one of Android 8.1, at least on the Mi A2 lite device

it's almost inconceivable to say that it's normal for the update to be delayed and for example other companies
But that's not to say that almost all miui devices have been upgraded.
you are not rooting for so many mistakes on androidone but not on miui.
something smells ugly
Big number of different new device and low number of developers. Working on an embedded system is not easy dude. Why you think most of the new device have the A/B part (mender style)?
Fear of the brick.

Question April 2022 Security Update

Just got my US April 2022 security update from Samsung for which I'm grateful, and it actually arrived during April
Still waiting for UI 4.1 update though.
Anyone in USA received 4.1 ?

Im just curious, Why does the US get updates last? The A52 in other parts of the world got One UI 4.1 in the start of April.

There's several reasons that there could be a delay.
It may be that some regulation needs to be complied with and they can't implement One UI until its dealt with. A prime example could be if telemetry data is sent back to Samsung. Is it required that the data is stored on US-based servers? They will need to set up the infrastructure for that.
Another possibility are the US carriers. They might have the One UI update already. Remember that carriers can implement the same tech in different ways which means a generic image from Samsung would always need adjustments first. That could cause continual delays.
The biggest culprit will the difference in SoC. Both use the Arm architecture which helps simplify things but there will still be inherent differences that needs to be coded for. Maybe Samsung just needs longer to create One UI on a Snapdragon processor?
These are just guesses because I have no idea what the delays are. Maybe a combination of all three! Could be something totally different too. Either way, you are going to have to keep waiting until someone is satisfied you can have One UI that won't break anything.
