Same as regular US998. Follow this thread for a how-to:

You can also be rooted on Oreo, and simply flash the US99830b.zip TWRP Flashable ROM from here (It's what I did):

Hi,
If I get oreo firmware of korean v30 v300k and I flash it in my european v30 h930, what would happen? It will works?
No it won't work. You might even brick your phone... if you manage to find a way to flash a firmware not intended for your variant.
You can't install install incompatible rom on this device. Installation process should check the model number to match your phone. That means it will show just an error, but modifying the rom file might allow you to install it. But it won't boot because the korean version has different modem.
Does anyone know if it is possible to install h930 rom on h930ds? I have heard that the modem inside is different, but I am not able to find official information.

Use Frankenstein thread method, convert to US998 or AS998 to flash Oreo KDZ.
EDIT :
US998 is better since it also has fastboot flash commands, in case you ever want to unlock bootloader and root.

Not only to have Oreo, but for bootloader unlock and root and to have freedom.
Ability to run custom ROMs like Boombox.
You can use CIS H930DS OREO KDZ or H930 Oreo KDZ. In both those threads, I have LGUP attached, which you can use to easily upgrade to Oreo. OR you can go one step further, and bootloader unlock and root before LG releases the update that will BLOCK that.
Lots of India users have done that.
See post #193 of the WTF thread.. Full instructions are there for bootloader unlock and root.

LG-US998 Pie Update Issue

Hey everyone,
I recently picked up an unlocked US998 V30 and for whatever reason it's saying there is no update to 9.0 Pie. It's stuck on 8.0 and even the LG Bridge and other Windows software says there is no update. I was under the assumption that all V30 models got Pie. Is there something I can do to upgrade?

Yes.
Go to the US998 Pie KDZ thread. Read post #2 and #6. Update manually by following the instructions. Be aware, this US998 Pie is wonky.

No, not all V30 have Pie. Sprint LS998 still doesn't, nor some H930DS regions.

Need help... bit confused Android Pie Update At&t

Hi Folks,
I am new to community. Have been getting help from all of you but posting for the 1st time. I have At&t H931 V30. Stuck on android Oreo July 2018 security patch. Have gone through Frankenstein process post and ready to convert to US998 carrier just to enjoy the slice of pie.
Now Im confused it to the point that do I need to do WTF method as well to unlock bootloader for pie upgradation. I don't want to root the device. Just want to flash latest android pie on my V30. At&t has officially launched pie update in sept 2019 but I understand there is no kdz file and this is the only way.
Help would be much appreciated. LGUP dual mode also confused me. What if i only follow LGUP method and not go with the repatched version.
Thanks in advance

You don't need to use WTF INSTRUCTIONS just to Frankenstein to US998 and update to US998 Pie.
WTF instructions are ONLY for Bootloader Unlock, installing TWRP and Root.
This is what you want. See post #1:
AT&T H931/Sprint LS998 conversion to US998 to be able to get updates
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/how-to/ls998-h931-how-to-update-t3927155
It will explain and take you to Frankenstein instructions...
After TEMPORARILY downgrading to US998 Nougat, then Master Reset (all explained in the Frankenstein instructions). But instead of upgrading to Oreo, you would flash US998 Pie from the Pie KDZ thread.
See post #2 for Pie KDZ:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/development/us998-lg-v30-us998-us99830a000704-kdz-t3952256
EDIT:
However, some people have not been able to update to the US998 Pie. If that happens, you can always use the Canada H933 Nougat then Pie KDZ conversion.
Since you don't care about root, that would work well for you, if you can't update to US998 Pie (it's a wonky KDZ).
H933 has more LTE bands than US998, actually...
Thanks will do that
Just one more thing I also checked my phones imei is not of original at&t LG V30 infact it is showing of some other phone. Its working till now. Would pie update change the imei or if not can it cause some issue later on? I hope imei would remain the same

No, IMEI is not touched by anything we do in this V30 forum. At least nothing in any of my instructions. Your IMEI will remain the same.
