As far as I know LG Bridge is disabled for LS998. I have a Sprint V30+ and have yet to get it to connect to my phone. Could be a user end error on my part but I have seen others report that it is disabled from carriers.

Discrimination againt Sprint?...

I would guess it would be less work for them. Figure they receive the firmware from LG and then put all there bloat and crap on it and then send the ota vs sending it back to LG to most likely upload to there server. It's been a while since I've been on a non nexus device so I coluld be wrong but either way the slow updates compared to google suck. Guess I got spoiled

it CAN be done by choosing PARTITION DLL in LGUP, and then select all to flash. Format data when you get stuck on LG logo or encounter Android down on first boot. Then the system will boot normally. The Oreo for AS998 also CAN be flashed that way. Comfirmed with a few user friends.

He's telling you how to convert your phone to an AS988 and have Oreo. The AS988 has a public KDZ not being kept secret like the LS988.
Are you actually using Sprint? Most people on here -- for reasons I don't understand at all -- buy problematic Sprint phones but don't actually use Sprint as their carrier.

No they actually locked it down. I got with sprint a while back and they disabled that feature for whatever reason

Root idea ATT G5

Has anyone tried using send_command to flash the LAF partition to BOOT (for backup sakes.. Need to be able to revert), after backing up to sdcard obviously, then flashing TMOBILE LAF to LAF partition. Rebooting the device again to download, now fastboot and oem unlocking? I was able to get this working on my old G3, I just got stuck in fastboot due to lg not having an official unlock tool (now available). From there TWRP could be flashed, and then root! After flashing the stock boot of course!!
Seriously!? Nobody responded!???? Maybe post this in the G5 Q&A????

Still no root for the LG G5 H820 (AT&T) Marshmallow 6.0.1?

Click to expand...

No, and honestly I don't think there will be. AT&T has locked this device down, and I mean locked it down HARD. If AT&T will release a tot or kdz then maybe we could get root, as someone could just make a pre-rooted system of the tot or kdz (right, guys?) but until (or if) they release it, I don't think there will be root. I would be willing to test for some things if I knew I could just flash back to stock if things go wrong but right now I can't, so I'm not willing to test for anything as I don't have the money to just go purchase another device if this one bricks.

You are kind of on the right path, but there is no way to just "flash" the t-mobile LAF partition. There are too many security variables that you need to find a work-around for, along with trying to find a way to get it onto your device.
Another thing is that THE SEND_COMMAND DOES NOT WORK ON THE G5. This has been talked about on many other threads, and it doesn't work.

Well the biggest issue is on top of AT&T locking the device down, they aren't releasing a kdz or tot file.

Yea that's what I was thinking. How can they be the only carrier that doesn't have to release the FW? They do the same thing on the AT&T S7 and S7E. Can they be sued for that?

Based on your model number, it looks like you might've bought yours factory unlocked? If in correct you should've already received the OTA, if you bought if from another carrier besides sprint I would contact the carrier on pushing out the OTA update to you,

Huh, weird. That never happened to me. I just updated my phone using LG Bridge on PC since I wasn't getting any updates without it. There was this moment when it started doing the update again by itself after finishing. I closed the LG Bridge tool on my PC and let my phone boot normally.

i don't think so. but there is fastboot mode on the device so flashing might be possible. I don't know how to get into it and try searching for ways to flash firmware on k520dy or lg stylus 2. any other countries' firmware might work on your indian variant.

Very sorry for not replying in many months. I forgot I even had this post. Yes, I am very much satisfied with the performance in Android 7.0. It's much better than Android 6.0. Sadly, I discovered that this phone doesn't have a recovery and flashing firmware on it is near impossible. Maybe a thourough Google search could find the answer to your problem. You could try the LG Bridge program on your computer to find and install the update.

Even I didn't get any notification for update at first. Since updating the phone manually is not an option (it doesn't have recovery), the only thing you can try is downloading the LG Bridge App from LG's website for Windows, plug in your phone into your windows computer and choose the software update option on the LG Bridge program. Then keep your phone plugged in and let it update if an update is found by the Windows LG Bridge app.
thanks for replay @SirGarmaples
I mean "manually" refer to Flash phone with official .KDZ file...
my Internet connection was very very very slow (40-60 Kbps) cant use LG Bridge... Unless I get KDZ file to software (LG Bridge) in some way
is this doable (import .KDZ file manually to LG Bridge)? any one of XDA-Developer users worked on it?
sorry for my bad english...

Even for .kdz file, you'll need to download that too. I don't see the benefit of not using LG Bridge tool for updating. Both ways, you'll need to download the file so there's no point. I do not know of any way of flashing .kdz file onto this phone. There's literally no support for our phone on XDA. You can update your phone using other faster wifi or connection or leave the computer to do the thing overnight. Look at this thread, this can help you. https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/uppercut-lgup-loader-g5-variants-t3511295 I'm not responsible for any damage or loss to your phone. Please don't do anything to your phone if you don't know what it is or how to do it.

You could instead download RS98811c_00_ARB01.kdz from the site (it's not the BPT version) and go through two updates to get to Nougat.

Someone over on Android Central said they posted the RS98821a update file (1.3GB). I downloaded it, but it is a .bin file, so not sure if it would be worth trying using LG UP, since my phone right now has the 10h (Brightpoint).

Yeah, I posted that. It was an OTA file. I'm not sure how you could use it in LGUP, but if I had to guess, it would be through the upgrade/update option. I would assume one would also have to already be on 11d.

Yeah, until LG updates their servers with the 21a version, it won't show on website no matter what IMEI from an RS988. Either have to wait for LG to update website or someone to post correct kdz file to use.
also getting 11c here and i am on 11d.
I think the only way to get the kdz would be if you were on the 11d and upgraded through the lg computer software

I tried that. It would always say that no update was available. The only update available was the OTA that I could only get from my phone directly.

If you're on BPT's 10h, have you tried going to BPT's 10d and THEN going 11c to get off BPT?
Also, you tried it in firmware update mode, correct? Powered off and unplugged > hold volume up button > plug in USB > wait.

If you're on BPT's 10h, have you tried going to BPT's 10d and THEN going 11c to get off BPT?

Yes, I tried that as well. Still won't flash.
Virus-D said:
Yeah, I posted that. It was an OTA file. I'm not sure how you could use it in LGUP, but if I had to guess, it would be through the upgrade/update option. I would assume one would also have to already be on 11d.

I tried tonight, and the LG UP program can't read .bin files. I even tried to rename it as a .zip just to see what would happen, and still can't read it.
So a week later and LG hasn't posted the 21a link yet on their check esn page. I wonder how long this will take. If the KDZ isn't up in a couple weeks, I guess I'll have to contact LG and see about sending my phone in. Maybe they have a way to get it back to 11c or 11d so that the 21a will download and install.

Sprint .-.
Delete, misread post.
ChazzMatt said:
Then why do you keep mentioning U.S.Cellular? You're confusing us.
You're on Sprint, right?
All the US998 are identical, it doesn't matter whether "open market" LG US998 V30 bought from B&H Photo or from U.S.Cellular or Frankenstein converted from another model.
So you have a bootloader unlocked and rooted US998, and you're using it on Sprint. Right?
Have you checked the Sprint post-root thread?

Sorry, I meant to reply to him, not you. I thought that was HIM saying he used Sprint while still talking about US CELLULAR.
I'll edit my previous post.

Do you use U.S.Cellular network? Not the phone model US998 -- but you're also actually a U.S.Cellular customer on their network?

I have a us cellular us998. Rooted. If i flash a custom rom other than stock i have to make a phone call to get data working. Of phone reboots i have to make another call. Is there a fix for this?
I think that is an AOSP issue. You can make a call to your voice mail, which does the same thing.
So aosp is not an option I take it. I'm on us998.

Normally that workaround is only necessary for VS996 on Verizon, not US998. Not sure why you have to do it. Are you on Verizon? Or US CELLULAR?
But you don't need custom ROMs if you don't want.
I'm on rooted stock firmware myself, with Magisk and other mods.
I am on us cellular network. I run rooted stock and actually like it but i get the itch to run custom roms. Just can't figure out the data part

What's the difference between VRS & VZR?

I have an unlocked Verizon V30 (vs996) . I bought it from china. I want flash pie kdz. But there is two pie kdz files (Region wise).. One is VRS and another one is VZR. How can I find out if my cell is VZR or VRS. Help me pls..

Use the one in the VS996 Pie KDZ thread. We know that works.

Came straight from LG servers for Verizon users.

LG Bridge software will let you make backup to restore.
But you have to download it to PC, set it up, make the backup.
