My Korean variant G600K just got OREO pushed. It's downloading now. I'm optimistic but there was NO mention of any ThinQ features in the changelog.

Probably stop refreshing. From what I've read, Korea gets it today and there's no info on the rest of the world. We're probably waiting a bit.
LG G6 (Korean) just got an update to Android Oreo today. Has anyone tried to install AR Stickers and AR Core? I tried to install it but it seems doesn't works. Anyone if has a suitable version of Google camera, AR Stickers, AR Core that can works well on G6, please reply. Thanks!
What is the new features? Please screenshoot. Im waiting for the new features

Not too much, maybe it's all about "bug fixes and performance improvement"
http://www.lge.co.kr/lgekor/mobile/notice/oreo01.jsp
beside some update listed there, this update also has hide navi bar feature
Honestly the hide nav bar thing should've been there when the phone was released, with the screen size and all that it only makes sense. What I'm curious of is did lg devise a way to do it without extra battery drain?

Be patient, the question has already been asked several times, it is necessary to wait until the people who had the update had time to perform a few cycles of use..
Okay I have it downloaded on a korean G600S. So far so good. Oreo 8.0 April 1st security patch. The settings menu is very different as expected. Performance is definitely a bit snappier just right off the bat.
Anyone got some news about when it will become avaible on the SEA 870ds version ? Cause my last update its from October...
BT 5?

I guess people shouldn't get too hasty.. The Oreo update is currently for Korea only. And they are getting that today so obviously they will need a day at least to check the performance and other stuff. So just wait. People will reply after testing properly

Yet my H870 hasn't got it yet...
H870 for South America has not received the update yet.
Took an age but just downloaded Oreo. Will update after a few days of use!
Wife's H870 updated yesterday evening. I updated mine manually a few hours before using LG Bridge (I was on Fulmics 4.2, so it didn't want to OTA itself).

After almost a month's worth of use, I'm not noticing any difference in performance. Admittedly I'm still running the ROM with as many different things disabled/restricted due to the battery drain issue I had running Nougat. I'll have to see about performing a factory reset and see how well it performs.
Will keep you posted

I found only on polish forum info about fix which remove lack of LTE when using a different card than the operator.
FWIW I got notified about what I assume is an official Pie update today. It's not the same version number as another post in here though:
PPW29.116-11

To be honest, you're not missing anything ground breaking although I must admit almost everything that's different is a nice change. My one big exception:
Y the truck did they switch which side they put the time on? Ridiculous.
That said, the upgrade was the smoothest I think I've ever experienced for any OS, desktop or mobile, ever.
I run the Nova Launcher and the update has not interfered with that at all. So my preferred tweaks, apart from moving the bloody time, have all been preserved.
Perhaps the biggest promised feature I'd like to think will be legitimate is battery saving. No real indication of any ground breaking changes there so far though it's only been 24 hours ?
I do understand that it's not fun to be kept waiting and feel a bit left behind.

My device was oreu and once I flashed retus on it and everything worked, though this might not help you to get faster updates and of course it also means that you have to unlock the bootloader which later might cause OTA updates to fail to install even if you manage to download them.
Cool. Week that's at least a good news as it's possible to do that. What that Pie's image by any chance?

Unfortunately it was not Pie rom, it was Oreo. There is no pie rom except for GSI roms. Hopefully someone who got the recent Pie update in Brasil will post the rom or capture a download link, then we could flash it in a similar way.

I have a Sprint V30, and I'm seriously annoyed with not having an update to Pie. I've read in some places that you can use LGUP to flash a LG-LS998 with a US998 kdz. Is that true? Or will that screw up my phone?

But you still use Sprint, right?
Most people do that to either
1) carrier unlock LS998 by flashing Open Market US998 firmware, which also changes radio/modem
OR
2) to bootloader unlock and install TWRP custom recovery -- at which point if they are Sprint customers they often then flash back to Sprint firmware (while keeping TWRP and root). Because US998 modem/radio doesn't have all the Sprint LTE bands. For Sprint customers, the Frankenstein LS998 to US998 flash is temporary necessity for bootloader unlock only.

@ChazzMatt actually held off on 9.0 as well as many people regret updating to 9.0 such as myself. The only real difference in this update is LG UX8. 9.0 just doesn't offer much.
Remember, this is not a Pixel. Those users NEED updates to try to catch up to features regular users actually have.

1) Because most custom ROMs don't work right once phone is updated to Pie. I have clear warning in every Pie KDZ thread I maintain. Even if you downgrade back to stock Oreo, if try to install custom ROM you then have run a permissive kernel for camera to work and even then some sensors may be messed up.
2) On stock Pie, some apps we like to use like Shortcut Master won't work.
There's nothing currently in stock Pie that's better than stock Oreo. Except for the minor upgrade to UX8.0. But it doesn't look any different. The camera is the same, etc.
Here's what is podted5:

@ChazzMatt can you the following warning/disclaimer to the first post:
If you flash pie KDZ then AOSP/(Lineage) ROMs like LOS, RR, havoc won't work properly.
Even if you flash (downgrade back to) Oreo KDZ and then flash AOSP ROMs, the camera and flashlight won't work on enforcing but will work on permissive.
But even on permissive a few sensors other than the camera may not work. This will be the case until AOSP ROMs with Pie blobs come.

Sure, I'll link to your post. I already say not to update to Pie yet if you wish to unlock bootloader.
I'll also add note not to update to Pie yet if you wish to run ASOP/Linage custom ROMs with link to your post. Then when the issue is fixed I can remove that specific warning.

Not the Quad DAC itself, but a very important feature added on several months ago -- DTS 3D Stereo -- doesn't work with a popular media player on Pie.
Basically there's nothing about Pie that is neccesary to have and several things right now that can cause problems.

Do you mean H930DS?
Yes, we even have H930DS TWRP flashable zips.
We even have a mod from Australia with an H930DS, rooted of course.
Yes, all V30 variants on Pie have DTS.
All V30 variants on last 2 or 3 Oreo updates (released in 2019) also have it EXCEPT for Canada H933. H933 never got an Oreo update with DTS libs for some reason. (They can always convert to 2019 US998 Oreo and have it.)
But all have it on Pie.

Sprint LS998 does NOT have Pie yet. Sprint 30a is Oreo, breaking all the naming convention.
If you update to LS998 30a, you will have latest and probably last Oreo for that variant.

Oh! So how does 30a compare to 27a? Better, faster, more stable, I hope? I'm unclear if it includes the DirectX3D sound? I hope so because that made the sound good enough I felt like I don't need Viper4Android anymore.
