Use the one in the VS996 Pie KDZ thread. We know that works.

LG Bridge software will let you make backup to restore.
But you have to download it to PC, set it up, make the backup.

LG P509: Removal of T-Mobile start up splash and sound

I have a new rooted and unlocked LG P509 from T-Mobile USA and just updated to the latest firmware. Noticed that once the update was complete, the phone now has sound on that annoying T-Mobile splash/start up screen.
Is there a way to remove the files so that the phone boots right into the LG and then ANDROID screen?
Thanks in advance!

I can't flash it due to the KDZ program crashing on me repeatedly. Could it be because of Windows 7? I'm doing everything right, but it crashed the second I press the button to flash the phone.

Please do. Some of us downloaded the Nougat file that was listed on lg-firmwares.com, but now we don't have LTE because it turns out is was for a carrier called Brightpoint. Our only hope to to download the full RS98821a KDZ file and see if it will flash on the phone.

Why not just let us know how to do it rather than submitting an IMEI number to you?

You could instead download RS98811c_00_ARB01.kdz from the site (it's not the BPT version) and go through two updates to get to Nougat.

please use the following url to check the firmware version for your phone. Please replace <your imei number> with your imei number

We need the url under the tag sw_url to download the nougat kdz. If you could help us out, it would be really great. Thanks
Since we already installed the BPT Nougat KDZ, its not letting us to downgrade to RS98811c_00_ARB01.kdz (marshmallow)

The return is the same RS98811c_00_ARB01.kdz file; not even the 11d update.
That is all I keep getting is the rs98811c version no matter what imei I try maybe it will take sometime for lg to update their servers

Someone over on Android Central said they posted the RS98821a update file (1.3GB). I downloaded it, but it is a .bin file, so not sure if it would be worth trying using LG UP, since my phone right now has the 10h (Brightpoint).

Yeah, I posted that. It was an OTA file. I'm not sure how you could use it in LGUP, but if I had to guess, it would be through the upgrade/update option. I would assume one would also have to already be on 11d.

Yeah, until LG updates their servers with the 21a version, it won't show on website no matter what IMEI from an RS988. Either have to wait for LG to update website or someone to post correct kdz file to use.
also getting 11c here and i am on 11d.
I think the only way to get the kdz would be if you were on the 11d and upgraded through the lg computer software

I tried that. It would always say that no update was available. The only update available was the OTA that I could only get from my phone directly.

I have the 11c KDZ file, but can't get LG UP to flash it (fales at 10%), because it is detecting that Nougat is installed and wont allow a flash to Marshmallow.

If you're on BPT's 10h, have you tried going to BPT's 10d and THEN going 11c to get off BPT?
Also, you tried it in firmware update mode, correct? Powered off and unplugged > hold volume up button > plug in USB > wait.

I tried tonight, and the LG UP program can't read .bin files. I even tried to rename it as a .zip just to see what would happen, and still can't read it.
So a week later and LG hasn't posted the 21a link yet on their check esn page. I wonder how long this will take. If the KDZ isn't up in a couple weeks, I guess I'll have to contact LG and see about sending my phone in. Maybe they have a way to get it back to 11c or 11d so that the 21a will download and install.

What's the difference?

Whats the difference between the h960a to the h960yk? and can i use the same firmware for both of em?

YK is another variant of this phone, as i can know you can flash the F600 firmware on that device, i am not so sure if you flash H960a it will work, but you need to flash H960TR because you have 64GB of storage.

yes, Android 7.0 is avaible now for most of this phone variants, to download go here:
https://lg-firmwares.com
find your variant (in this case try find H960TR, i think is better for you). Download the V30 KDZ and flash with Uppercut, make sure the Uppercut is set to Update mode in the middle options.

As far as I know LG Bridge is disabled for LS998. I have a Sprint V30+ and have yet to get it to connect to my phone. Could be a user end error on my part but I have seen others report that it is disabled from carriers.

Discrimination againt Sprint?...
I would guess it would be less work for them. Figure they receive the firmware from LG and then put all there bloat and crap on it and then send the ota vs sending it back to LG to most likely upload to there server. It's been a while since I've been on a non nexus device so I coluld be wrong but either way the slow updates compared to google suck. Guess I got spoiled

it CAN be done by choosing PARTITION DLL in LGUP, and then select all to flash. Format data when you get stuck on LG logo or encounter Android down on first boot. Then the system will boot normally. The Oreo for AS998 also CAN be flashed that way. Comfirmed with a few user friends.

He's telling you how to convert your phone to an AS988 and have Oreo. The AS988 has a public KDZ not being kept secret like the LS988.
Are you actually using Sprint? Most people on here -- for reasons I don't understand at all -- buy problematic Sprint phones but don't actually use Sprint as their carrier.
