I was finally able to get LG to repair my V10 under warranty to fix that overheated processor issue! Which is great, I hear people were having trouble getting LG to respond. I just asked via Facebook messenger and things got rolling.
But now I received the phone back and it's got Nougat! Nooo!! The whole point of keeping the V10 was for the wide compatibility of rooting, Xposed, customization etc and now I'm afraid I'm stuck in Nougat hell. Is there a way to downgrade back to Marshmallow safely? I'm trying to search the answers but the results are somewhat chaotic. I read that a Samsung user was able to downgrade his S7 no problem. Please point me in the right direction, anyone.

Not possible currently, unless some of the Devs can come up with a way.

Crap. So if I try to flash a backup I made back in Marshmallow, I'll brick?
Sent from my LG-H918 using Tapatalk
Possibly, although i don't know for certain. Nor do I know how to flash a backup without TWRP or some other recovery.

I have seen that h901 30b and 30c both are on ARBv2. And luckily 20j and 20l are also on ARBv2 while 20e is on ARBv1. So it would be safe to downgrade an h901 from 30b or 30c to 20j or 20l using LGUP without any problems actually.

If I was to use this method, do I do "refurbish" in LGP Or "upgrade" In LGUP. I assume cause I would be going from 7.0 to 6.0 It would be refurbish. or does it not matter? I'm running the T mobile LGV10 H901 30c

Use refurbish for downgrade. I guess it should matter.
@NestorRamUre
Did you use refurbish option or upgrade option (while downgrading from 30B to 20J or L)? May be you were using upgrade option, due to which you were getting the error. If so, try it with refurbish option.

Yeah I tried it, and it just gets stuck on 7% and fails. So I flashed back to 7.0 and all is well.
why downgrade is possible on 961, but not possible on 901?! the same phone!
Still no decision to downgrade h901 from 30c?

I used lgup to try to downgrade to 20L, 20J, 20e all don't work, tried Refurbish option, update option but all don't work, always failed. I think it's not possible to downgrade to marshmallow. LG sucks

I finally have an answer as to WHY you can't downgrade to MM even though ARB wasn't incremented.
When Nougat was released, the updated laf (download mode) to only flash KDZs that have a signature. MM KDZs don't have that signature.
If someone wants to get me the partition listing (instructions in the root thread), then you guys will have root again -- even on Nougat.
-- Brian
So we're you able to figure it out?

Were you able to figure out if one could downgrade to mm on v10 h901?
No, it is not possible unless you are rooted, but I finally have a working root method for Nougat. Just waiting on @famewolf to provide me some information to see if it needs to be modified for the V10 (working on G4 and V20).

BoomBox rom falls under your criteria.

Boombox is partially debloated with some unnecessary apps being removed, but there's another full-sized stock rom named "Theory of Everything" which is more noticeably debloated and has the features for the AI software. I'd definitely recommend that to anybody new to the LG V30.
Thanks for the reply guys, i think i may jsut go stock and debloat on my own w/Titanium Backup...

Once you convert to Oreo US998 or H930 there's not much to debloat. Wallpapers, Facebook. What else? And I like Facebook. LG Health? I sort of like that, actually.

You need to actually read the instructions. Your haven't done that yet? You cannot bootloader unlock and root stock H931. You have convert root H931 to US998.

Right. Jump you post #193 in that thread. Post #1 in that thread has copy and paste of post #193, but the original is easier to read than quoted version.
Print it out if you can. Don't skip steps. It clearly tells when the go to the next section. It's not hard, you just have to follow the steps.
CONCEPT: @TxanMoe discovered LG Oreo on the V30/V30+/V30S has nice flaw where you can flash your own bootloader unlock code to successfully unlock the bootloader, install TWRP and root.
But you need fastboot flash commands. In North America, only the carrier unlocked US998 has that. But you can use dev patched LGUP to convert any other North America phone (except T-mobile H932) to become a US998 Oreo phone. FLASH bootloader unlock code. BOOM. Sprint and Verizon users then add back LTE bands or VoLTE/Wi-fi calling.
Similar situation for the the rest of the world with the European H930 Oreo. Some differences but for this overall view, it's the same concept.
Now, we have learned the June Android security patch will have fix for "LG bootloaders". Unlock the bootloader while you can!
Thank you to all for the input. The phone arrived, but OLED has an issue, some green dot thats always on. More than just one stuck pixel.. back it goes...

There no point in relocking your bootloader. Starkiller uploaded the full ota. You need to reflash firmware and dont root it. My guide has the instructions for reflashing stock. After you do that put the ota file in the root of your sd card then go to settings, apps, and find Moto update services and allow it to have access to your sd card. Then go the update Moto software from settings
---------- Post added at 04:23 PM ---------- 3Previous post was at 04:18 PM ----------
But the ota starkiller uploaded is for the boost Mobile variant xt1922-7 not for xt1922-9 sorry I forgot about that. Do not use the ota I mentioned. Best you can do untill your pie update is uploaded on mirrors is either wait for the ota to hit your device then reflash stock firmware then take the pie ota or just wait. Either way you still need to be on unrooted stock firmware. relocking your bootloader does absolutely nothing anymore basically.
Wait, so if I get the XT1922-9 model (Best Buy/Target) I'll be stuck on Oreo? I guess that's the downside of not getting a carrier-locked phone.

Can anyone confirm this as a fact? I bought an unlocked model XT1922-9 from Lenovo direct.
I actually want to remain on 8/Oreo because 9/Pie blocks call recording apps. :fingers-crossed:
If I got stuck on Pie, I'd have to root in order to get call recording back. I'd rather not bother!
if anyone is bummed Motorola is taking so long to update our unlocked g6 play/wanting updated vendor and stuff to run pie gsi's and looking to flash pie for unlocked retus jeter (xt1922-9,) just flash the USC version on lolinet. Everything I have tested so far works just fine, only thing I have not tested yet is sim(calling, text, data.) My IMEI is still being shown in settings so I'm guessing when I pop in my verizon sim everything will be fine but YMMV. Make sure your bootloader is unlocked first before flashing because the boot.img will give a bad key message but it works fine.

in about phone, software channel still says US retail even with the USC firmware.

Maybe I should have phrased it better. Is Pie coming to this model at all? It seems like Pie is being reserved for carrier-branded phones, perhaps as incentive to get a carrier-branded phone instead of an unlocked non-carrier-branded phone. If that is not the case, is Motorola/Lenovo waiting till the last minute? Cause Android Q will be here in a few months (August).

Hi guys,

My H930 was also laggy after the V30b OTA flashed with LG UP, even after the factory reset. Then I downgraded to 22j and flashed the V30b KDZ which became available in this time. Whole another world. Smooth as butter.

No, I didn't receive the OTA. I flashed the leaked V30b OTA I got here on XDA. Because the experience on Pie was awful (choppy, very bad battery life) even after a factory reset, I reflashed 22j KDZ with LG UP and decided to wait for a official Pie roll out. Few days later, I found out that the official Pie upgrade is available through LG bridge. That did it. My phone is at least as smooth as on Oreo and the battery life is quite amazing but it obviously depends from personal usage. The only thing that seems different is the RAM management. Now uses more RAM with the same settings and installed apps. Regards.
PS: Completely stock, no root, no unlocked bootloader, no anything rather than complete stock.
Thank you for your answer.
Yes I also noticed that Pie uses more RAM than Oreo and the RAM management was bad and random. Maybe 4Go don't cut it anymore? I don't know.
Glad to hear that it's working perfectly for you. Unfortunately I can't update through LG Bridge, I get the "Cannot check the software version" error
It is the same for me, my battery life since I've updated my phone by OTA is awful, is it possible to downgrade without rooting my phone which I've never did?

While it talks about how to downgrade for bootloader unlock, it's still just downgrading from Pie to Oreo. Same method, no matter the reason.
Downgrading to Oreo KDZ has nothing to do with root. It's just most people who downgrade are doing that so they can then unlock bootloader and root (on early Oreo).
But you can downgrade to most recent Oreo, whatever you wish.
Use the method in post #2, ignore the reason most people use it.

No issues on my device during the first week. Only stock Gallery app is slower and more laggy than before. It's like cache is not working there so every time I open some folder in Gallery it starts loading pictures from beginning which is causing lags.
Some other issues are there with Nova launcher and multitasksing, but this is due to this launcher. On stock everything is fine.

I don't understand the dilemma. What other options were you considering?

Also wanting to unroot and lock the bootloader

I run rooted stock firmware with mods to customize and control my phone. I would never un-root and lock bootloader unless I was selling the phone.
Having TWRP custom recovery alone plus Titanium Backup app two tool I am loathe to give up.

Thanks for your help.
As much as I love a good boot loop, I just wanted to avoid one before going back to stock.
I'll check it out now

Glad to be of help. I was merely curious about the "wide range of stock pie firmware" comment.
I only post full image KDZ or TWRP-flashable zips based on full image KDZ, and I post those in the ROMs section. Full image KDZ is stock, official LG firmware. (I maintain Nougat, Oreo, Pie KDZ threads for several V30 variants, but they are all clearly labelled for which variant and which OS.)
Yes, someone has posted beta Pie partial image "update" files -- which by definition are not yet official release and possibly buggy.
Stick with KDZ and you'll be OK.
