Will the system of h932 be updated? - LG V30 Questions & Answers

I lost Download and TWRP, so I need ota update to repair the phone.
But it has not been updated for a long time. Has LG stopped updating it?

There's method in the T-mobile H932 root guide to fake the OTA update. It was discussed a few times. You can ask there.
But yes eventually more updates should come.

Can't Update LG L70 After Root?

I successfully rooted my LG L70 with towelroot, but I have a problem now. I can't update the software on my phone from ms32310b to ms32310c. It downloads, reboots and appears to install and says system is up to date, but it's still at ms32310b and a couple days later says I need to download the update again. Will it not update because my phone is rooted now with towelroot? Does anyone know how I can maybe force the update so I can stop getting these update notifications? Thank you!
I seem to have this same problem but my phone is the ls740

I guess we have to use lg flash tool to manually flash the KDZ update file, but I'm not sure if updating will unroot the device since the new version in my case doesn't support root.
well on my phone i have CWM so i could probably find a zip to flash

if you root your phone mostly you do not get ota updates and if you get one and install it you lose root

This is absolutely correct. I rooted my LGMS323 with Towelroot (which worked beautifully I might add) but weeks later made the terrible oversight of approving an OTA update without thinking which nuked the root. I've been stuck ever since. Once you update to MS32310c there is NO EASY WAY of rooting your device (as of yet). The only way to reroot is to start over and downgrade from (c) back to (b) or (a) by flashing the KDZ as you mentioned. Because I'm without a machine at the moment and unable to do this I'm TRULY stuck. Don't be me! Stick with what you've got!

Thank you! I probably will. Unless of course they come out with a stable Lollipop rom, then I might be tempted to install Clockworkmod and check it out.

Problems with getting Nougat for LG G5

I am quite new to this so please be patient.
I flashed my unlocked (previous Vodafone) LG G5 with the official OPEN firmware a week ago. Since then I have had a notification on LG BRIDGE to tell me that a new update (H85020a) is available but whenever I tried to complete the update, I get an error to say the update cannot be downloaded. I have tinkered with LGUP before so downloaded and tried flashing but came to the Error 0x2000 every time. The update isn't available whenever I check for OTA.
My questions are: even though I have the official OPEN firmware now, are my updates still dependent on the previous carrier's release?
Have I messed up the update process somehow by flashing in the first place? Making LG BRIDGE unable to complete the update?
Any solutions for the LGUP error code out there?
I have the same problem with LG Bridge. I got the official EE OTA update today.
Hopefully Vodafone won't be far behind if you go back to that.
However, if you've flashed an open firmware you should get update directly from LG and they'll be faster than carrier pushed ones.

Rooted ZV4 Stock to ZVC update possible and still keep root?

I am about to loan my LG G3 Sprint out to someone and currently only mods I've done is take it back to stock ZV4 and root it with StumpRoot and disabled the handsfree crap. Before I loan it out I'm getting harassed by Update notifications and I'm wondering how do I maintain root and update to the latest ZVC? OR at the very least stop the update notifications.
The latest is actually ZVG. I recently reset my G3 to stock using the LG Flash Tool, then simply installed all the OTA updates up to ZVG. Then I used this script tp root it:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-lg-g3/development/ls990-zva-zvb-one-click-root-method-t3212433
This script worked fine, but needed some manual intervention. I put the tips in this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70723522&postcount=3
If you want to only update to ZVC and root it, that script should run fine on ZVC also, but I can't confirm. To prevent OTA updates, maybe you can use Titanium Backup to freeze the OTA process.

How to disable software update (bootloader unlocked Sprint v30+ on US998)

Yeah so I got a 136mb update notification today on my device. I unlocked my bootloader via the method in the "WTF.." thread; restored a sprint backup over the US998 firmware to get my 4G working again since I am on sprint. I'm afraid the update may apply while I'm asleep or if I reboot the phone. Under the update settings on Sprint the ability to disable checking for updates is not an option.

You have root now. You can remove/freeze/disable any OTA updates.

Would freezing "FOTA update" take off this? Looked up it up on titanium and froze that.

Sounds right.
Disable automatic updates in developer options. I don't believe the update would work without stock recovery tho.(confirmed I tried to reboot, it failed update. I am on US998 rom just swapped US998 build.prop with Sprint build.prop) you might be able to flash from recovery not sure tho.
I was curious so I pulled the update.zip from /cache here it is https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OvV-OI-mX9qVUKOtaAe9IBxplW2Q4UHN/view?usp=drivesdk I wouldn't install it. Every update I recieved from Sprint seemed to lock the phone down even more. It does seem to have a modem update..

LG V30+ (LG-US998) not able to update OTA

I picked up a new in box factory unlocked LG V30+ (LG-US998) on Amazon pretty cheap in December. What I didn't realize it that it is just running android 7.1.2 not 8 which I believe is the most current version available. I bought the unlocked version to avoid all the AT&T bloatware, but now I'm realizing it won't update OTA to the newest OS and is probably behind on security updates. Does anyone know what I need to do to get the phone to update OTA. I'm not interested in a custom rom or any of that, so if that means I need to flash the AT&T stock rom (with their bloatware) that's fine. I just want the phone to get OTA updates. I tried using the LG software to update it and it doesn't recognize the phone.
Refer to these two threads. Read through them, ignore the part about rooting if you won't be doing that.

You just need to update to latest US998 KDZ via software called LGUP.
See link below. You want steps 4 and 5.

Yes, those instructions are for converting to US998 -- but steps 4 and 5 still apply to someone just wanting to update US998 to most current firmware.
Install LGUP, download latest US998 KDZ (links provided), flash via Update mode. Easy.

An even better answer:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/help/lg-v30-oreo-t3831950
Just go to the US998 Oreo KDZ thread, install the LGUP attached there and download latest KDZ to update. Install via "Upgrade" mode in LGUP.

I read through but I'm a bit unsure of what I need to do. Do I need to unlock the bootloader or root it? I'm not interested in rooting it. Do I just download US99820h_00_0318.kdz and use the patched LGUP to install / flash it to my phone? I'm not sure where to get the proper patched version of LGUP to do this.

No, this update to current firmware has nothing to do with bootloader unlock and root.

Yes, that's exactly what you do. It's like a manual OTA. You have the file, you use Upgrade mode with Dev Patched LGUP (which is more powerful than stock LGUP).

It's attached to post #1 of the US998 KDZ thread. You download it from there, and there's also link to download US998 20H KDZ.

I had this same issue with my phone... Wouldn't ever get OTA updates... Honestly, the easiest way to get updates outside the kdz and lgup is to use the twrp stock builds. They're stock V30, you can get them without bloatware (US-998), and updating them is a piece of cake once you know what you're doing... In my case, the lack of updates seemed to have something to do with the fact that my device was somehow a Sprint device, blah blah blah....
Anyways, TWRP stock builds is the way to go... I'm currently running the Tmobile stock build and it's fine and does whatever I need it to... I like it better than custom

But they don't want to unlock bootloader and root, so I'm telling them the easy LGUP Upgrade mode method with latest US998 KDZ.
I agree TWRP flashable zip is fantastic. I use it, but for my wife's phone which is not bootloader unlocked or rooted (and my sister's phone also), the LGUP/KDZ method is where they need.

No, this LGUP update to current firmware KDZ has nothing to do with bootloader unlock and root.

I hate to resurrect such an old post, but I never got around to doing this. Now that the quarantine is in place I have time. Is there a newer version of the kdz that I should use (probably Pie)? I'm guessing there's a newer version of LGUP (modified) as well?
Let me make sure I understand this too. I can use the modified version of LGUP to flash the newer kdz to my phone using the "upgrade" option and it keeps all the data currently on my phone, right? If later I wanted to do a factory reset on my phone, that would wipe the data but still retain the newer kdz that was installed, correct?

For US998, I only recommend updating to last Oreo 20h. I'm rooted, still on that. My wife, mother, sister, brother in law who are all NOT Bootloader Unlocked/Rooted are all still on that, also.
The one US998 Pie KDZ we received is very wonky. It's technically for U.S. Cellular. LG never released Pie KDZ for Open Market. Charging is slower, other things broken if you use other carriers.
Many people find it hard to update to, and if you have problems most of the workarounds depend on having TWRP.
I strongly recommend stable last Oreo 20h.
Yes, there is newer version of Dev Patched LGUP. I have it posted in the US998 Oreo and Pie KDZ threads, as well as Frankenstein.
Yes, if the use Upgrade mode you keep your data as long as you are already on earlier same firmware, in this case US998.
