Hi, my H930DS is unlocked, TWRP and Magisk20, if I apply the AUS V30c OTA update all it does is reboot to recovery? I have downloaded the AUDV30c.KDZ to update using LGUp, I guess using refurbish because I have TWRP?
I have searched the forum looking for a copy of AUS V30c as twrp flashable, but cannot seem to find one.

You can NOT use OTA updates if you're bootloader unlocked and have TWRP custom recovery. Never.
You have try either flash a compatible TWRP flashable zip (EU H930 or India H939DS) or flash KDZ in Refurbish mode.
If you flash KDZ, your bootloader will still be unlocked.
Then once on Pie, follow Section 6 of WTF to re-install TWRP and the three root files.
From Pie KDZ threads:
____
With unlocked bootloader, then on Pie KDZ you can install TWRP and root.
Stable TWRP 3.2.3.7 is recommended by our TWRP dev -- yes, even on Pie.
To install TWRP and root, PLEASE follow these instructions for success!
Thanks, is it difficult to convert a kdz to twrp flashable? Is there a tutorial any where?
If it is to hard then I'll just use the kdz

I've hunted around the forum but can't quite see this issue.
I've rooted and unlocked the bootloader and installed the latest TWRP recovery on my Nexus 9 LTE.
I'm aware that TWRP is for the wifi only model, so when I try and flash the latest LMY48I update via recovery and the zip file, TWRP states that the update is for "flounder_lte" and my device is "flounder". (the device is flounder lte but clearly having twrp installed is causing this error)
Is there a another way of updating my lte device so I can install the OTA update ???
@beej199
What "update" are you trying to flash?
The official OTA can only be sideloaded via stock recovery.
And the factory image has to flashed via fastboot, from bootloader.
The lte zip from here....
http://www.droid-life.com/2015/08/10/download-nexus-4-5-6-7-9-10-ota-stagefright-patches/
So it would be possible to install via fastboot?
Is there a guide for how an update (rather than a full system image) can be installed you could point me to?
thanks!

No. This is an OTA. You have to have stock recovery, stock (non rooted) system, and stock kernel.
If you want to fastboot flash the factory image, download it from here > https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
Then follow this guide for a "how to" (use the Long Method. Flash_All does not work) > http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-9/general/guide-how-to-unlock-bootloader-flash-t3035153
I have a H850 on V10d. The bootloader is unlocked, TWRP 3.0.2-0 is flashed to the recovery partition and SuperSU 2.78 is installed.
When I try an OTA update, the phone reboots to TWRP. Rebooting from there leaves me with the old firmware.
What is the preferred way to update? Can I use LG Bridge? Or do I have to flash a stock recovery?

Update with LGUp o by flashing firmware zip (if avaible) trough TWRP.
Never do OTA when you are rooted or have a TWRP, there are high possibility to brick in these cases.
so if i have an unlocked bootloader, custom recovery, and i'm rooted, but have a bunch of apps installed and a bunch of configurations, unroot, flash stock and then install the OTA, i'm okay?

If you're going to flash stock, you may not need to worry about an OTA. Just find the latest KDZ file for your G5 H850 here: https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h850-firmwares/ and then flash it with LGUP. Your bootloader will still be unlocked, and you'll have to use fastboot to flash TWRP after which you can root your new stock firmware by flashing SU. Flashing stock is just that; you'll lose any installed apps and configurations you've set in 10d.

Maybe you can prevent some losses if you use the LG Backup tool at first!
Make a Backup and you can restore some of your apps and their data.
BUT ALL ICON / SOUND & SYSTEM SETTINGS ARE LOST!
I am from HK, forgive my bad english please...
I just buy a UK version v30 (H930)
I have a few question about:
1) I hope to use android 8.0. can I upgrade the phone to last version of H930? my phone version now is 7.1.2 V10v-EUR-XX
2) I found some reply in https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/help/unlocking-rooting-twrp-magisk-step-step-t3745006 seems telling me that after rooted, I can't reboot the phone, otherwise the TWRP will lose, that means lost root? and I need to install TWRP and Root again every time.
3) after upgrade to android 8.0, can I just follow https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/help/unlocking-rooting-twrp-magisk-step-step-t3745006 #1 to root?
thanks for read & help!!!
Your question is simply a TWRP question.
After installing TWRP custom recovery, you have to then immediately boot to TWRP and enable it. If you boot back to regular OS first, TWRP doesn't stick. That's all that warning means.
Once in TWRP that's when you flash the root method of your choice, Magisk or SuperSu.
See this post for bootloader unlock, TWRP, root. You already have H930 so you're already one step ahead:

thank you for your prompt reply, I am now upgrading.
I can found the fake unlocked bootloader in your article, sounds great!!
one more question, can I use the download link with https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/development/h930-lg-v30-european-market-h930-t3779076 as Oreo H930 KDZ?

Yes that's the one you use for H930 with that attached LGUP to upgrade to Oreo.
I have a Korean V300L，I wan't flash h930 firmware to unlock the BL，and then Iflash the V300L original kdz will it lock back？ROOT is working yet？V30 use magisk root can OTA update like Pixel？Thx
if it's working as you think, then flashing a kdz won't relock your bootloader. it'll remain unlocked. but i don't have answers for the rest of your questions beside of the fact that you cannot update a rooted phone via ota, unfortunately.
not relocked but lost fastboot option
cannnot flash twrp & root
if you want to root in v300L stock rom
read this thread > https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/how-to/korean-variant-bootloader-unlock-root-t3804505
The main problem here is failing to boot to fastboot, with both adb and button way failing.
Any idea? A korean ****up?

Korean V30 variants don't have the necessary fastboot flash commands. Only H930, H939DS, and US998 have those.
That's why for WTF bootloader unlock and root method Korean variants have to temporarily convert to EU H930 (but they lose radio bands), and then flash back to something else with TWRP flashable zips after bootloader unlock and root, to get radio bands back.
These Pie betas are just inferior partial OTA files. Once full KDZ is released, you'll probably be able to root by using WTF/Korea variant method again. As long as you keep unlocked bootloader!
Is it possible to get H930 Recovery backup via LGUP？
