Is there another place to download LG firmware other than that "LG Fans" website? The download speeds are impossible!

According to them, the latest security patch for my variant was released in December 21st last year, nit I can't find it on LG Bridge, nor via FOTA.
LG makes great phones, but the software fiasco just ruins everything

WHOA, feelsbadman
The H872 just got OREO a month or so ago....
LG... What have you become??

I've been sending LG execs emails every single day, I'll continue to do so until something gets done.

Really? I got Oreo on my H872 way back last year.

Yes lg-firmwares.com will have the latest official. On my h873, I'm on version i of 8.0. Updated through 2 prior 8.0 versions and haven't noticed any daily use differences - seems like just security patches.
Only way to get newer is to move to a lg g6 that can be bootloader unlocked and cfm installed. Then you can get the latest OS regardless. (Or just move to another make with faster os updates)

Welcome to the LG buddy... They released their Software update Centre about 8 mnth ago to big fanfairs with the promise we were going to see LG be the first for major OS updates.. and what did we get... the G7 got an update almost 6 months ago.. and now... Nothing since.. What a croc
Even my £250 Xperia xa2, a Sony budget device got Pie 2 months ago...
We have Android Q rolling out soon..
I love my G6, but things like Dark mode and security updates are what I want
Great LG

New Firmware 10L

Hi guys, just saw on LGBridge a 10L update for my Vodafone Italy LG G6.
It should be avalable also for other European Vodafone branded phone.
Can confirm. 10L available for carrier-free/unlocked G6 here in Uk.
can you provide download link?
10L
Available also over OTA for EUR-XX, about 470 MB. Wondering if this is the announced major update to G6.
Got it =) Unlocked device in Portugal

thanks, my problem is I'm trying to get hold of the 10L kdz so I can refurbish my G6 to get rid of carrier bloatware, hence was looking to download 10l kdz

Refurbish in LGup doesn't work since G5 afaik, you need to flash an open kdz and after make a reset with the button combination.
Mind that the link I found is Vodafone branded and it seems impossible atm to download the firmware, I'll try again when I'll be back from work.
if you run LGUP with Autoprime's little "UPPERCUT" app you can refurbish the G6 with an open kdz.
Noob question, Im rooted, will updating affect this?

Just received update to BKL-L09 8.0.0.172(C636) around 3 days ago. I am from Malaysia. The way it's going I don't expect us to receive any major update at least until next year.
this update is causing me major problems with the camera stability, especially on Instagram and Snapchat, detail comes out blury, especially of text, and even facea, also the photo moves on after the shutter which is very annoying , anyone else having these problems?
I just got 8.0.0.173. Security updates.

Same for Malaysia. I got it 10mins ago. I checked firmware finder next one likely be Pie so I am mistaken we might actually get it next month.
pie has been officially released, we should be getting it soon, prob in early January guys
So apparently Pie is officially out for BKL-L09C636E3R1P12B159 (9.0.0.159)
https://www.getdroidtips.com/huawei...-update-for-honor-view-10-download-available/
so we should get the update pushed soon
Pie announcement
https://www.xda-developers.com/emui-9-0-get-global-release-for-honor-10-honor-play-and-honor-view-10/
As of 19/12/2018 20:47 London GMT I have not received update.
A bit worried the firmware finder showing the latest dated 2018.12.10 is another 8.0.0.173 while pie is dated 2018.11.27.

It's official and its not ota. I believe its in hicare app before appearing in system I think. Check the other topic. Honestly I think it might drain battery a bit faster I am not sure. I did do factory reset before using. Also so called Adaptive Battery feature in Pie seems to be missing.
still bot recieved the update, very annoyed, I'm looking in to firmware finder apparently the updated app has a erecovery option to update, thr dns and vpn method does not work, does anyone have any experience with the erecovery option, as im new to the honor brand can someone please point me to the right direction for a tutorial? thanks

thats no need for that, as they say is only security patch from january, no more changes are built.
since we are expecting Pie, until then will be 0 news on updates just security patches, wich doesnt mean some patches can improve some battery life but no much more than that.
my belives is really only that, since i flash every update and v20a, v20b, v20c, v20g and now v20h all of the previous the changelog is only that "security patch" nothing more.
we need to be patient until july when Pie will arrive to our devices.

Workmate received it in Spain, no brand.
It broke GPS. Anyone else?
Had the update for three days, GPS is fine.
Finally not related to the OTA upgrade. After lots of tries, solution was turning it off, leaving it there for a while, seconds, a start it again. Restarts didn't help, no clue if that have any sense.
Updated today.
After "NO SIM CARD"
Looking for downgrade.

Thanks Matt. Do you have knowledge on how to upgrade to the beta Pie. I have tried with LG UP as I am not rooted with very little luck
H 870 V20J has arrived, but the security patch is in May. H870 europa for accuracy italy
v20j for the Israeli version installed, using LGUP
Only change I see is the introduction of the camera AI. (interesting but doesn't really improve the photos)
No change in performance or other features (although it did an upgrade not a clean install)
Has April security patch

Android 11 Release

Just got the OTA offer:

Now i'm on my pc, i can see your signature. looks like your version of the phone has a lot options in stock recovery than the one i'm seeing. I have the tmobile variant (also know as Tmobile Revvl 5g) in US, the recovery is stripped down more. Hopefully Tmobile would push out the update.
Anyway you could provide the files for this ota or pull it somehow?

Thank you for posting I just downloaded to look around the zip file. Has anyone here figured out how to correctly extract the OTA Firmware boot.img from boot.img.p file and try to patch with Magisk? 7z opens the boot.img.p as an archive. When running the file in magisk it does not recognize it.

Good question, it might be possible.
Issues I've had with 11:
- YT Music sometimes thinks its offline, only started when I installed 11 and its definitely not offline.
Another bodge I've had to do is disable absolute volume due to a BT speaker but thats the speakers fault (lowest gain is too high).
OTA released, Jan 2021 to May 2021 PL.
Received the OTA for Android 11 this morning (T-Mobile Revvl 5G variant)
Also received this OTA on both of my Revvl 5G devices. Getting the gut feeling it might shave an hour of SOT off, but didn't have enough time with 10 to properly compare (the OTA auto-installed). Didn't note any major differences/issues with the update otherwise.
To update. Compared against the 6B6XUMX1 that the device shipped with, the Android 11 OTA drained 10% overnight and reduced SOT a measured 2h. This is with a fresh wipe and minimal app reinstall. I'd avoid for now.

General a52 5g gets ONE ui 4.1

Firmware A526BXXU1CVC4 for A52 5G is available now in DBT (Germany) and has OneUI 4.1
Can be downloaded with Frija now and maybe from SAMMOBILE also.
Hopefully it's coming soon for A52S 5g also hehehe

Samsung is wasting no time in making sure One UI 4.1 is available for as many devices as possible, as ...
www.sammobile.com
Oh and it's probably available OTA in some regions...
One UI 4.1 not available yet for the A52s (Sm-A528). Perhaps in April/May depending on the region. Just got the regular March security patch today.

It's probably because of that Ram Plus option, which Samsung doesn't let us turn off. On Xiaomi i can at lest turn it off and phone instantly feels faster. It's unnecessary feature, and storage memory will never be as fast as Ram.
However my A52s doesn't feel slow at all on OneUi 4.0.
Haven't seen it here in the US yet

Still no one ui 4.1 or March 2022 update here in US. I'm on att and still waiting , it's April 10 already. What's the hold up Samsung? Even the Russians who invade other countries has gotten it. That's not right!
I'm on A526BXXU1CVC4 for about 2 weeks here in Czech Republic. But I im unable to activate 'magic erase' gallery feature which should be included in this updated.
Thoughts?
