I've just bought a H840, I forgot to check before I bought it if it was a H850! Shame that there's no alternatives to the 7.x stock ROM, makes me wonder why LG never rolled out Oreo for it. Anyways, the phone is in very good condition so I'm not too upset & will use it as my daily phone while I do some custom work on my older H850.
I have a question about the H840 and wondered if anyone can help:
The Always On Display on the H840 does not have the 'Advanced' option to switch the AOD off according to a schedule. Does anyone know if it's possible to port the H850 AOD app to the H840?
Thanks
Disclaimer: I'm not familiar with the H840. But I suppose you could try it and find out. If you have any way to extract the app from the H850 (or from some stock firmware floating around), of course matching android version. With that said the two models are different enough spec wise I wouldn't expect it to work.

I've installed APK extractor from the Play Store & will see how it goes. There are other AOD apps, but would be nice to use the LG version if possible.

I was curious if there was a list of the newer AT&T devices that are able to be rooted? It seems like a lot of sites list a phone, but when you try to root, it will be incompatible (like my LG G5.)
Doesn't seem like there will ever be a root for my LG G5 H820, so i wanted to start my search for a new device with compatibility; Like the LG V20, Galaxy S8, OnePlus 3, Nexus 6P, etc....
My ideal phone would be AT&T service, replaceable battery, expandable storage, and root-able.....but I'm sure I'm asking for a lot!!
Thanks everyone!
Hi Guys,
I have an international LG G5 (H850) with official Nougat Rom. Due to my disability and clumsy hands, I much prefer the larger LG MM quick setting buttons (like old school Touchwiz), is there anyw ay to bring this to Nougat? More than happy to try a custom rom.
Thanks,
Chris
Is the new camera AI part of Oreo 8.0, or is it a separate update? I've updated on Verizon, but see no new modes in the camera. Some people, after updating to Oreo, have reported that their splash screens now show V30S Thin Q. Mine doesn't. Is this all carrier related? Thanks

Not all Oreos have them. Mine updated to oreo and got 2-3 more updates before getting the ThinQ features (which weren't even announced until well after Oreo was released for Korean carriers). Maybe some carriers skip the earlier updates and go straight to the version with ThinQ but there's definitely previous oreo versions without these features.
AI should be separate. It’s an LG software, not a Google Oreo component. Though I think some of the Oreo updates received by some carriers from LG may include both.

Thanks to both replies.
That's what I thought. How would you know? Is it a Kernel version?

I stumbled on this article:
LG surprises with Android 12 update containing June 2022 security patch for LG Wing
LG has begun upgrading the Wing to Android 12, seven months on from the device's last OS update. Android 12 brings several changes to the device and contains the latest set of Android security patches. Rolling out in South Korea first, Android 12 is over a 1.5 GB download and is the LG Wing's...

So apparently some Wings are already on Android 12!
I just bought an unlocked carrier free LG Wing (LM-F100EMW) in Germany and it says it is up to date with Android 10 with a 1 July 2021 Security Patch Level?
Why is there such a discrepancy in release dates?
Strange. I wouldn't sweat it. 10 is better version anyway. Another from 9 or higher is secure enough unless you do something stupid.
Well, I did some digging and found this thread:
LGUp 1.16.3 Patched Found and Works with LG Wing
Honestly found it on XDA of all places after looking for it all night What does 1.16 give us that 1.14 doesn't? Everything honestly. Could not get my Wing recognized to flash with 1.14. No 1.15 Patched exists either We can downgrade with...

And I managed to flash Android 11.
Can you flash back to 10? I am in the US and no update to 12 yet
Just received Android 12. So far seems to be working well. Have some nice added features, mainly seems to be more polished than 11. Another cool feature is that it shows you with a Green Dot indicator by the battery when you're camera and/or microphone is on.

Seems pretty snappy. Window, transitions, notification pull Downs, notification previews are all prettier. I would say I'm pleased with Android 12. Battery life seems to be as good or better also!
So I ordered a F100N to use in Scandinavia. And I heard they've come further than the US versions. Just wanted to know if it could be upgraded to Android 12? Or even 13?
LG Wing Android 12 updates has bugs. I am not able to open Wi-Fi settings and other sensors stopped working. After a hard reset it worked for 3 weeks but again same problem. Even after installing new patch with 5G support my Wing in unable to connect to Wi-Fi.
