How do I update the LG keyboard. I know they pushed out an update that was supposed to help some touch issues for the keyboard. I cannot find a place to update it.
Verizon is slow and didn't push out the update to us yet. They have to do their own "security" testing on it first -- and we can't manually flash it because we have a different model phone than everyone else.

Just wondering if this OTA will download and apply automatically or if I have to OK it. I have a rooted slide with slidemeroot5 and I don't want to lose root or anything. If someone can answer please let me know, thanks!
Its for the stock ROM so you wouldn't even be able to apply it anyway. If you were stock and rooted it would take the root away. I would say best bet is to wait until a Dev applies the changes to their ROM and then flash that.

To implement the OTA into a ROM, the dev needs the OTA file. If he downloads the OTA and doesn't install it, then pulls it as described in a thread in the Slide General forum, then contacts a dev such as ChiefzReloaded and gives him the OTA file, then proper development can continue.
There is something on the tmo press release that confused me. It says that you will be notified by a free sms msg. Is this how all ota updates have come out? I have never had a stock android at the time of an update (rooted my g1 first day out of the box). If so, then I know how to go about pulling the file down for a dev; and I will when my daughter gets her update (if someone hasnt already beat me to it that is). If this is not the usual way; will pulling the file still be possible?
The press release also mentions something about them not being able to manually update subscribers any sooner than the 19th. Is this just their way of saying dont call us if you havent gotten your update yet? Thats kinda funny if that's all it is, lol.

That's exactly what it means. What else could it possibly mean other than that? I work for T-Mobile and if you were to call asking about the update before then, I'd tell you to call back if you don't get it by the 20th. We literally can't push the OTA.
It could possibly mean that there is no download for it available to public devices. Im just trying to make sure that when my daughters phone updates i will be able to pull the logcat and have a download url

Hey guys.
I am thinking about installing ICS leak but what if official ICS release afterward?
The OS will be exactly same so I do not need to do anything?
or I still need to upgrade or something to be an official version?
if so, there is no problem while upgrading? (leak -> official) no crash?
Thank you!
In my opinion, it could be a problem. I seriously doubt the official release will use an exe file to update the phone, like the leak used. Therefore, the official updating process through OTA or the LG Support Tool might not work.
Of course people will say you just have to unbrick it to the stock V10f ROM. Problem is, when I did that, the OTA update process nor the LG Support Tool would update my phone. Something broke it. I even unrooted it, but no dice. I kept getting a notice for an OTA update, but the install would always fail at 2%. When I used the support tool that I got straight from the LG website, it kept telling me my phone was up to date.
Fortunately I was still in my 30 day trial and I was having hardware issues with it (normal temps of 110°F and basically no battery life). I only installed the leak in the hopes that it would fix it, but it didn't. Even going back to V10f didn't help. My new phone runs great, so I'm waiting for the official ROM.
You guys know any plan for the official?
The official for Korean Nitro was already released in this month.
Hi,
I bought a LG G3 from Ebay which was blocked on AT&T for using it both in the USA and in Europe (I choose this model for its frequencies supported). It is a D850 model as you can expect.
After receiving it, I unlocked it to run different carriers. I rooted it as well.
I want to install the AT&T 5.0.1 update from OTA (I don't care about root right know). But I have one big problem. I keeps saying that my software is up to date which is wrong. Is it because I'm on T-Mobile right know and AT&T blocks the update ?!
I'm using build D85010d. right know and I never had a software update notification. I've tried to set my phone date to a couple days forward as suggested by Android Police. No luck.
I just want to have the update. After that if it says "you are rooted, you can't install", I will unroot it and reinstall.
Is there any way to update manually ? I heard it's impossible thanks to AT&T.
This is beginning to irritate me.
Thank you in advance

have you found any solutions to this? i'm using an unlocked att G3 as well (although not blocked) and I can't figure out how to update. i even tried to put someone's ATT sim in it and it still said it was up to date, which is completely false. god i hate att. can't update, can't use Qi charging, can't do anything.
I can't update my lg g3(d855) too. It's have the 4.4.2 kitkat and i want upgrade it to 5.0.1 lollipop.
Plzz help if u find a solution to this problem
Same issue .......how to update to lollipop manually ....................... if someone can help it will be appreciated :good:
I am having an issue with the AT&T Lollipop update, as well. I bought a D850 from eBay on KitKat 4.4.2, and when I inserted my AT&T MVNO SIM and checked for updates, it found the Lollipop update. It started downloading, but about 2/3 of the way through, the display shut off (I had it set for 15 minutes). When I got the display back, this action had stopped the download, and it did not continue. Now, when I check for updates, it just says I have the current version. I have run system resets, and tried a different AT&T SIM, but I can't get the Lollipop download again. Does the start of a FOTA download set a flag somewhere that prevents re-downloading?
Only thing I could think of is asking for a .kdz file for your phone and carrier and then flashing that using the LG Flash Tool
unable to update D850
I have the same issue. I have a D850 AT&T version and my is not showing any update available. I am in 4.4.2. Any solution how to update? Please help. Thanks to all
I'm another victim of this. Have someone found a solution? I'm desperated. And sad, I feel scammed.
At&t LG g3 d850
Hi, I'm New in the XDA forum.
My name is Neeraj
And when I saw your post, I found me.
What ever you do please don't do custom rom update.i found that in a hard way.
Like you I too bought one from ebay, at&t logo but unlocked, and while trying to update says it's up to date.
Later I found out I need at&t SIM to update the phone. Because it's only network unlocked not the entire phone. It still got some sorts of at&t restrictions.
Any way I went and rooted, installed twrp, and cm13 6.0.1 then Walla my phone goes into reboot loop and when it finally opens up the network doesn't work.
By the I'm in Australia , temporary residence and I don't have at&t SIM.
So good luck and infact i'm hoping some one will guide me too
I fixed it, don't know exactly if it will work on others.
But what exactly I did was search Google download official stock rom for at&t LG G3 D 850 ( KitKat or lollipop), flash the rom and Walla got my IMEI number restored and it fixed my boot loop problem.
Then backed up by all data, IMEI, etc and then flashes back to custom CM marshmallow. Now all is well. ?
Hope it this will help some one aleast a newbie lie me
Has anyone else come across version V20m?
I got it pushed to me OTA
Took me by surprise, as I have a custom recovery, and my phone is rooted too.
After some difficulty trying to install it through TWRP, I eventually had to connect my device to my PC and get the update using LG Bridge.
I can't see anything that's been added, except some regulation / permission requests relating to the new EU Data Protection Law.
Note: I did lose root and TWRP but no other changes, so bear that in mind if you update.
same here. how can i disable the ota notification?
Hi guys. I got a G8 from a friend whose friend's dad is a radio tower engineer for AT&T that got this phone early. It's a prerelease phone (says "not for sale") on the back, and it comes with software that is seemingly far behind what shipped with the public version of the device. It's Android 9 with the December 2018 security patch, SW version G820UM04b. This version is pretty buggy and doesn't have some features like air motion. It seems like the initial software release for the public phone was G820UM10g.
Whenever I try updating the device, it just says the software is already up to date. I've done more factory resets and tried more tricks than I can even recount. Got a fresh new SIM card. Called AT&T and got them to manually push the update to my IMEI (which is correctly registered), waited a day for the update. Tried LG Bridge but it's incompatible with AT&T devices. Looked for kdz files online for the AT&T version that I can flash using LGUP, but there's no AT&T files available (pls tell me if anyone knows of any out there).
I'm at my wit's end guys. Anyone have any ideas as to how I can get this phone updated? I'm realizing that I really took the ability to just unlock and flash my old OnePlus for granted
Where do you live ?
Mobile AT&T only support to update OTA if you live in US !

Sorry, forgot to clarify that. I live in the USA and I use AT&T.
On the face of it it's not looking good. There aren't any KDZs for ATT as standard, and you can't update OTA - one thing to check here is the S/N field, pre-production LG phones are usually missing this, which is usually why OTAs don't work.
However, pre-production devices can, sometimes, be cross-flashed. You could try using LGUP to flash a more recent US unlocked build. It is likely to give you the IMPL lock / mismatch / crossflashing not allowed error, but it's worth a shot.
If that doesn't work, your best bet will be to ask your friend's dad to take it in to work (when he can...) for whoever looks after devices for his team to flash it to production as a favour.
