Looks like some good news may really be coming (Nougat)...
http://www.gsmarena.com/nougat_upda...es_bluetooth_sig_certification-news-22523.php
Looks like the Motorola Droid Turbo 2 will soon get Nougat as the Android 7.0 update for the handset (model number XT1585) has been certified by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG).
Now we will finally get root! Hehe

I've come to terms with the likelihood that this phone will never see root. And if it does, there will be little to no development for custom roms or other goodies. I am to the point where I think the glory days of rooting and having cool software hacks that actually improve the phones are behind us. Now my opinion could be, because my last three phones have been locked down on Verizon, and my Razr M once unlocked never had great builds. The builds it did have had issues due to bootloader changes and my lack of willingness to downgrade the bootloader once other changes were made. As I recall. Still excited to see Nougat coming at least.

Well since Verizon just got rid of 2 year contracts for everyone so no subsidized phones I won't buy another carrier phone. My wife has the pixel xl and loves it. I will be going Google not so much for the unlocked bootloader more for immediate updates. Screw carrier and manufacturer taking forever to update or decide not to update (Droid Maxx 5.1 I'm looking at you).

Yup. Every single phone I have had has been in the Droid Line (HTC Included). No more!! Not after this phone runs dry.
Is this Bogus?
This has to be bogus, right? Why don't I see this thread on XDA?

How does the Bluetooth SIG certification affect my phone?
I use Bluetooth with my truck and some earbuds...... I don't see where I would see extra functionality.
Does not affect your phone. It's just a way how info about update leaks. Every phone/update needs to pass certification before is released.

This is something I read from the LG V10 forum:
The netizen asked LG Electronics USA branch online for the answer, and said that they are "preparing to update Android 7.0 for both models." In fact, the US mobile carrier T-Mobile homepage on the V10 will be about to update Android 7.0 soon.
*
However, this happened because LG Electronics' decision was not passed on to the US subsidiary.
*
"Both of these products are technologically optimized for Android 6.0 from the production stage, so we decided to keep software stability at its best," an official at LG Electronics said.
*
In addition, regarding the point that the Android 6.0 version comes out after the G4 release, "I will make the trend considering the future version of the smartphone manufacturing, considering the next version." If there is any part of the new OS that does not fit, I made this decision considering that, "he said.

So LG just builds phones for a particular Android version? Optimize it for that version and leave it? LG V10 was released last year with LG K series.
What if LG takes the same decision for K10? What if they say "LG K10 is technologically optimized for Android 5.1.1 & 6.0 from the production stage, so we decided to keep software stability at its best"?

They are so AWFUL. I'd just like an update list at this point. Samsung is worse about updates, and even they have a list out now.
Well this is sad, very sad. I think in the end they will push nougat to V10. However V10 will have nougat from lineage os or other way. Trouble is with mid range phones I understand why they don't develope new versions for one series because they want to sell future one with new version of android, but what the hell shoul I do with mediatek device how to make custom rom, or worse we can't flash recovery without playing with bootloader and possiblly hard brick device

Maybe they'll get it together. I doubt it, seeming as how they don't have to rely on sales of phones to keep the company in good standings (as long as they make those sweet AMOLED TV's that is). I think lg is content with just churning out garbage. Idk. Maybe im just against them due to the fact that my first phone was an LG Xpression 2 ( and you haven't seen that junkfest, look into it. It's a nightmare)

Didn't the AT&T variant release like 6 months after the rest? If that's so, the phone is barely a year old at this point. And it's seems like lg did agree to that whole 2 year upgrade policy that Google wanted. Nonetheless, AT&T may push for an update.

We have a better after sales support here than any other country. I talked to many people who have bricked their K10's. They had to pay to send it through post.
Well here I just had to go to the service center and tell them the problem. They never asked me any question on how it happened. They just repaired it then and there and gave it to me. That's how I started loving LG more and more.

T-Mobile supports phones even if LG doesn't support them for upgrading to newer version. So there is a 50-50 chance.

■ Application for LG V30 users 'LG OS Preview' from 2 days
□ Anyone can participate in LG V30 users regardless of carrier
□ Apply for 'LG V30's' Quick Help 'application
■ Various opinions of consumers are reflected in upgrade
□ Application' Forum "
□ Improvement to OS upgraded in December □ Improvement of
basic performance and convenience by software optimization
■ Managing director of LG Electronics Korea Mobile Sangyu Gyeonggi," We do not miss each customer's opinion and enjoy the best performance We will continue to provide services to help you "
LG Electronics' new operating system (OS) to be applied to LG V30, a strategic smartphone for strategic use, will also be heard from customers. We plan to continue to enjoy the best performance and convenience after the new OS upgrade.
On February 2, LG Electronics will launch the LG OS Preview program, which allows users of LG V30 users to preview the operating system of Android 8.0 ('Oreo'). If you are a LG V30 user, you can join anyone regardless of carrier.
How to apply is simple. Users can run 'Quick Help' app on LG V30 and click 'LG OS Preview' banner. If you receive a "Software Update" notification message that is sent out during this month and execute it, the wireless OS upgrade will proceed.
Users can exchange information by posting various opinions in 'Forum', a free forum in the 'Quick Help' app. If you leave the need to improve using the Oreo, LG Electronics plans to reflect it in the official OS upgrade starting in December.
Google 's latest OS' Oreo 'speed, battery and basic performance, as well as enhance the screen configuration, graphics and a variety of convenience features will be added. Optimize the software to drive and boot faster, and when not using the app, minimize power consumption and battery consumption. It also includes convenience features such as allowing users to watch videos and continue viewing images on a small screen even when running other apps, or to support a wider variety of sound devices such as high-quality wireless headsets.
Lee Sang-gyu, managing director of Korea Mobile Group at LG Electronics, said, "We will continue to provide services that allow us to fully enjoy the best performance without failing to reflect on customer feedback."
Just saw this on Droid Life. Apparently it's only for Korea users but hopefully they open it up to more countries soon. I want in.

That wasn't an "update". V20 launched with Nougat last year. Which is why everyone was disappointed the V30 didn't launch with Oreo.
Because with the V10 (which was still the flagship V phone when Google released Nougat in August 2016), it took 11 months for the official carrier unlocked version to get 2016 Nougat. July 2017. (Yes the same Nougat the V20 had installed at launch!) V20 was launched in 4th quarter 2016 and had Nougat already installed. Bootloader unlocked V10 then got it July 2017[/].
And it took until April 2016 for the V10 to get the 2015 Marshmallow. It launched with Lollipop in 4th quarter 2015.
Let's hope the V30 Oreo update is faster?
is there anway to side load it or do we just have to wait for it to launch in US
Hope someone gets screenshots soon enough, waiting for some revamped UI hopefully..
"If you’re reading this in North America, this news doesn’t directly concern you, but in a way it does. Announced today, LG is launching a preview program for the Oreo update to the V30, which is basically a public beta. At this time, the beta is limited to only those in South Korea, but for V30 owners the US, this is good because that means Oreo is indeed being worked on and must be nearly ready for rollout."
Does this means all Korean units? Even if you use it europe, you should be able to enroll right?

Did anyone mention this about "how" to register ?
From XDA newz yesterday : https://www.xda-developers.com/lg-v30-android-oreo-preview-south-korea/
From today, LG V30 owners in South Korea will be able to get a hold of the upcoming Android Oreo update by registering via the Quick Help application. LG is launching a preview program for the V30’s Oreo update, which is essentially a public beta ahead of the official upgrade which is slated for next month.

Just install and run Quick Help. There will be a banner in the middle with Oreo word on it, just click it and follow the steps. You will need LG account.

I tried using a VPN service through Korea as well. But same result. Think it's connected to the LG account, but I can't seem to create one that doesn't automatically say Sweden in the profile.
good to know they're beta testing OREO...shame it isn't open to all...double shame carrier phones are locked down.

V20 was the first to launch with 7.0. Google launched the Pixel line with 7.1 around the same time.
I'm glad that we got a very stable 7.1.2 build on the V30. The V20 was so damn glitchy and so many things just didn't work smoothly.
I can't read Korean, but I believe this is how you participate...

Hi dears,
I tried also via VPN... it is the registration page on my V30, maybe we have to make a Korean email address...
Dears, the problem is the email address... get one from daum.net
I've looked everywhere for the quick help app or access to it and searched all over Google. I already got a Korean email address. How do I access quick help?

Where does LG say that? They never give a timeline or date prediction that I've seen. Don't trust various sites stating when they predict LG will give Pie.
Also, first ones to get PIE we'll be Korean carrier variants -- yeah, possibly Q1 2019... But everyone else will be months after that. Will be at least Q2 for rest of us, just like Oreo earlier this year.

Just like I said -- by end of 2nd quarter for V30. I KNEW that was the plan! See here:
https://www.androidpolice.com/2019/...dule-for-south-korea-v35-and-v40-are-up-next/
Android 9 Pie started rolling out to the Korean G7 today, but other models will have to wait longer. LG's schedule says the V35 will also get Pie in Q1 2019 (which ends March 31), but the V40, V30, and V30S will have to wait until Q2 2019 (ends on June 30). The G6, V20, and Q8 are expected to receive Pie in Q3, and the Q9 and X5 will get it by the end of the year.

It's about time LG should realise that just stamping out new phones with 10 different variants isn't gonna do anything for them. With the G8 coming out soon I doubt the V30 will even be getting any security updates after the pie rollout. No cutting edge hardware is any good if it's running 2 year old software. It's one thing to treat mid tier or budget devices this way but even to your flagships, that's like axing your own foot. With the 90day security update criteria to be in the so called 'android enterprise recommended' program, LG is just doing the bare minimum so that they don't lose a marketing opportunity.

But there is a specific time period (duration) they have to give those updates. "Knowledge workers" classification is 3 years. "Rugged workers" (construction use, etc) is 5 years. V30 is 3 years for updates.

Yeah but V30 was launched in sept'17 and completes it's 3 years sept'20. Since LG takes about an year to rollout the updates(pie released aug'18 and it'll positively be Q3'19 before all V30 variants receive the update) even if the next android version releases in Q3 this year I highly doubt we'll get another software upgrade release within that 3 year time frame.

Yes, Pie will be the last letter upgrade and will start arriving Q2 2019 and continue into Q3 2019. Security updates will continue for at least a full year after that.
However, I was referring to this comment:

Security updates will continue to Q3 2020 and possibly Q2 2021 -- depending on definition of the starting line. Oreo was needed to even be in the Enterprise Recommended program, and we didn't get Oreo and the 90-day updates until Q2 2018.

Has anyone received a security patch update after AUG 2018 for LG H930DS? And has anyone received the pie update? and when do you guys think we will get it? For the H930DS Indian Version..
Hi
Do you think that the lg g7 will receive the pie update for the eu ?
Thank you
Makes you wonder, feels like the G7 is abandonware now that the G8 is out. Even security patches are absent. But the answer is simple, no more LG, ever.
But they said that they will makes an update that's right ?

And in Korea they have the update
In Korea they have the update, so I guess they already did their promise. The rest of the world is a small place in LG eyes.

Crap, Some forum say that the update was supposed to happen by the end of april.
We will see but I hope so.
Do you know some bugless and good pie rom for the LG G7 ?
Some of the branded models in eu got a update with April patch only. So likely no pie on his way. I try to hold out this year and I go back to sony or oneplus. I wanted to last for sure 2 years with this phone but not on this way. Some thing still not even fixed. Now even other flag ship support wide angle camera it's easy to leave lg.

Yes, pretty easy but it's actually a good phone...
I can't believe that lg just give up about an update for a high-end 2018 smartphone

They even move the production to Vietnam to reduce cost. That's how bad lg do. The g8 got tripple camera in Korea and dual in europe. Can't name any other brand who works like lg. Who ever upgrade is not aware of the money you trow away because if you want to get rid of it its lower than half price worth. Good device but what a shame

I hope that will work
Obviously we have poor chance to get this update.
LG Benelux said "we doesn't know when and if a update is on the way for the EU version of lg g7"
?
Since the Kernal sources for Pie for EU versions are already out.. It won't take too long to be rolled out as OTA .. May be this week itself..

When was it released? ?
Next update should be to the Last May. But what we get whos know. (Last update was in March + 2 months.)

Does sources were published sometime at the end of March, or beginning of April if I'm not mistaken I had them on my computer for awhile now...
I'll never buy an LG smartphone ever again

Why would they write source code just for fun? it will arrive
Official response from LG Spain. They say that the update for the LG G710EM will come in June but they are not 100% because it depends on the software update center in Korea. So the real problem is the LG center update in Korea.
Well at least lg is the second last behind htc to update 9.0 after any other company updated there flagships. What I read about other phones that have software issues like oneplus 7 pro I must say I don't even want to trade this phone because the G7 still great for what it is and reliable to me. LG could be the best in the market if they put some effort in it.
