That's for a different model. Search H870. Not G6 as this brings up G600

Korean G6 is the G600
Fair enough. Good news for us G6 users then.

According to some reddit post :
Evilhowl said:
No treble support, BUT LG devs tested a vendor partition for treble. It doesn't seem to be enabled on the final version.
LG will release Android 8.0.0, not 8.1.
That kernel can be used to improve LineageOS 15.1 (it can be built for us997 and h870 too)
Kernel is updated to 3.18.71.
I think I can confirm that G5 and V20 will get Oreo (there are files related with these devices).

I am now reading it and at first , yes android-8.0.0_r23 is build version. But Most files are from 22th January so who knows maybe now we are working on 8.1.
There are no files for European H870.
Only for G600

Yes, but these phones are (should be) very similar, and this source can be very useful for fixing existing kernel issues.

Nothing at the moment, it's just source of oreo kernel...
Did anybody notice that there's Oreo available for the H871? That's basically the same as the H870, right?

Not to mention a few other models, including the Korean variants and the Canadian variant. Fido, a Canadian phone carrier, says that Oreo will be coming in April on their website.

Nope , they are different. H871 is USA only version. There are similarities. G600 is similar as well. Still not accurate data about h870
This are roms or kernel? i have h873 and was posted

US Cellular = Fail?

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.

V30 wifi calling.

Hi
I have an h930 European version, bought it as unlocked and i dont have the option to turn on the wifi calling or volte, im using Three but they will stop the three in touch app on the 15th so its kind of urgent to set this thing up, i have been looking but i couldnt find a thread with the exact same situation.
Can i change the rom or somehow add wifi calling option into call settings?
Please guys i love this phone i dont want to get rid of it...
Have you tried converting it to a US998? I bought an unlocked H931 and use it on Metro by T-Mobile. I couldn't get wifi calling to work until I converted it and now it works flawlessly.

You can always try re-flashing Open EU KDZ.
Are you bootloader unlocked and rooted? Yes, no?

I don't know if your carrier supports that on the H930. My first suggestions would be to reinstall the most recent H930 KDZ for your region. See if that works for you.
Second, @seadersn started a guide to help people, but it's advanced:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/how-to/guide-volte-vowifi-functional-available-t3834267
I think there is no wifi calling in European version
I have seen this working on another h930.
Right i am happy to pay £100 to anyone who can make this work on my v30 with Three!
Im in Essex Uk happy to travel within 70miles radius if thats the case!
Good news! My H930G got an update today and now ot has VoWi-fi function! Also AOD got better. I'm very happy!

Wait. EU H930 is incompatible with US998 20H.
Do you have more than one phone? Because yesterday you were all over the EU H930 Pie thread, flashing that KDZ repeatedly on your phone.
You should never flash European firmware over North American variants and vice versa.
Here a couple of weeks ago you said you have H931:

So, why were you flashing EU H930 Pie on your phone yesterday? You are going to brick your phone.
If you indeed do have H931 (which seems to be the case, since you say it's "AT&T"), then you need to go back to Frankenstein and start over. Flash US998 Nougat, Master Reset, then US998 Oreo and STAY there until North American Pie is released.

You need to do the Master Reset after flashing US998 Nougat to stabilize it. Until then you will get bootloop. That's why Master Reset is there.
To me, at least, it seems you aren't following the instructions.

You cannot Frankenstein an H930 phone to North American variants or vice versa. Frankenstein is full conversion where your variant becomes another.
That method described above is a partial conversion which does not include modems. Your frequencies remain the same. So would that do you any good?
The only reason people tried that above was because they were frustrated are the North American Pie release delays. Some said when they tried to convert back their phone didn't act right...
