When I first got the phone I enrolled and it took me a couple seconds to get the update. But they pushed out the screen fix update so I went back to 8.0. now I'd like to go back to 8.1 and I enrolled on the website and still don't have my update it's been probably 48 Hours. Any tips?

Anyone who has the November Security Update is no longer eligible to receive the current beta. You will have to wait for the next build.

go to your dialer and type this *#*#checkin#*#*
you should get a notification after it shows reboot phone and you should get it soon.
Ok, I did that i typed it in the dialer, then restarted my phone, and still nothing, i did that about 10 mins after you posted that, i figured i would let it go the night before i respond. any other suggestions. im considering just rooting but i want to keep getting the otas without any hassle.
I can assure you:
1) If you wait for the OTA you may have to wait even longer to root. If that is something you want to do, it is a moot point otherwise.
2) Be patient, plenty of people haven't received the update.
3) This is the last OS update for the Inc. You will not have another update to look forward to as this phone has been updated twice in its shelf life.

Some people at androidforums.com seem to think the update might have been pulled so Verizon can fix a few issues (like leaving Sprint stuff in the build.prop file). I have no idea if this is true or not, just passing it along.
There are still people on androidforums.com that have not received the ota either.
I haven't heard of anyone getting it for a week or more. I'm guessing at this point they had enough complaints that there's some retooling going on. I'm expecting 605.4 in the form of another patch but it's just my own speculation.
Hey guys..been a long while since i have posted...I got the email notification almost 1 month ago saying i would soon have the update and I still havent gotten it...am I the only one?

Have you tried checking for updates in settings? Sprint did say it would be over a 6 week period.

Are you on a stock ROM? That's the only way you will get the update over the air.
ya, im on stock... I check for updates everyday. In my notification, it said within the next 2 weeks & it has been about 1 month. just wondering if any1 else had this issue. I guess the hurricane could have affected the time line..We were hit pretty bad & still have alot of towers damaged.

Mine is updating now but stated "security update will install?"
Looks like the N920AUCS4EQG1 update Nobarb found for all of us and referenced as unreleased a little bit back. (Thank you once again, Nobarb for all your hard work!!)
Probably just another security update. With the S8, S8+ and now the Note 8 forthcoming I can't imagine Samsung throwing us any more bones for our good old Note 5.

My apologies...I may have misunderstood what you were talking about. I just got an update yesterday and it was the QG1 update which brings in the July 1, 2017 update.
If you are not fully up to that build, keep trying for an update. You might try manually pushing your clock ahead a day if it is restricting you by the time limit.
I also received this new update and installed it. No difference in battery life or performance whatsoever... Just security updates.
Ever since my phone was updated to Nougat, it has been randomly rebooting (sometimes once a week and sometimes twice in 10 minutes). I can still use it fine but I'm honestly getting tired of finding it stuck at the "Enter PIN" (encrypted phone) screen after restarting. So I'm missing important calls without even realizing it when the phone is in my pocket. Anybody else seeing this? Suggestions welcome.
I did a cache wipe at least 10 times now and that didn't help. Don't wish to do a factory reset... It's a pain to setup android the way I like.
Thanks for any help guys.
someone can give me firmware N920AUCS4EQG1, im out side US,pls!

Stop creating same threads over and over again.. There has been more than 1, just use search. And no, there is no alternative method, just wait.

No he is right.
On the other hand, you are thinking wrongly. 720 hours is nothing for whyred.
The question is why?
Why? Because there's no ROM here we can call really stable, at the moment. Especially since it was switched to Android 9.
Take a look at the alleged LOS15.1, which is supposed to be "stable". I have that device since early May. It's now early october. I started using the ROM end August.
I keep finding issues. I reported bugs, and nothing is done about it (not even looked upon the official Jira), in months.
Look at the bluetooth for example, even sending/receiving a simple file fails.
Some others will tell you "yeah it's ok for daily use", blablabla. I had other roms, there's nothing to debate.
So it seems the most android 8 based roms are abandoned and some slow progress on versions for 9.
I guess your 720 hours is a blessing in disguise, one way or another you'd have to wait anyway. It gives you time to research how to do.
Oh yes because if you want a decent firmware, kernel, camera, rom, etc... you'll need to patch your phone more than frankestein has stitches.

had mine unlocked and camera and sensors stopped working sent it back for warranty and ill get a new phone wich means ill haveto wait again to unlock.
I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this is a heads-up that the newly released Pie update for Korea cannot be rolled back. I would be surprised if it doesn't apply to other variants as well.
I saw it in this post by @trouble. in the H930 Pie thread: The update notes include the following:
If you run the update, the security policy will be strengthened and you will not be able to downgrade to the previous version of the software.
So they went ARB1 after all. No more rolling back after this update. I bet that's why they pulled the original Pie update: It always seemed too good to be true that they would leave that barn door open, both because this is the second major OS update and because it's what makes all V30s rootable.
In short: If you care about root, do NOT update with LG Bridge or OTA or the latest KDZ when it comes out. Only update with TWRP flashable zips (which I assume will be harder to make now).
If it was complaints from US carriers that caused the original Pie to be pulled, I bet this was it, not lags or other bugs: No way they would accept another ARB0 update of this phone. In their mind, it's time to kill it and sell some new phones.
Edit: This also has a few other consequences: Once the Pie update is out for your model, you can no longer send it in to LG for repair, as you will get it back with Pie. The same if you replace it through your carrier. And if you buy a V30 on eBay, you want to make sure it doesn't have Pie on it, if you want to be able to root.
So NOW would be the time to buy that V30 for anybody who's been thinking about it!
It seems we may be in luck after all: According to @tech_infinity's post here release notes for the previous update said the same thing, even though the update was actually ARB0.
So fingers crossed. I apologize for crying wolf if it turns out there is none. We'll see when the update actually comes out. I would still say be careful until it's been confirmed. I will be myself.

Yeah let's wait and see. If it turns out to be true, then it's a good warning. If it turns out not to be true, you can always edit the thread title.
New owners need to be careful anyway and not just update to most recent firmware, before finding out how to root their phone.
I've seen that so many times over the years -- people get a new phone, IMMEDIATELY update to most recent firmware, THEN come XDA ask how to root their phone. With ARB now incremented, they can't do it. Whereas if they had stayed on the firmware their phone came with, it would have been easy. THEN, update.

Thank you. I agree. Most people don't don't pay attention to ARB and don't realize it's a hard wall once you cross it (fuses blown): Not something we can just work around with a little software tweak.
Looks like we dodged a bullet:
