Problems updating my G7 ThinQ - LG G7 ThinQ Questions & Answers

Hello, I'm new to this device and I'm just having troubles with it. I bought a branded LG G7 ThinQ and then, back home, I decided to flash stock firmware (no brand apps and so on); no troubles: it works perfectly. The Firmware I flashed was update to May security patch. Later, I found out that a new versione was released and I tried to update via OTA. No updates found. Then, I download LG Bridge on my PC and searched for updates. It found an update and I confirmed the flash, but unfortunately, the update process stops after downloaded the firmware and sideloaded to the device. LG Bridge now gives me an error saying that it can't be updated. What's the problem for you? My system version is V10b-222-01 and the build is OPR1.170623.032. I forgot to say I've already tried to flash the firmware downloaded through LG Bridge with LG UP with no results.

It's completely normal that you can no longer receive updates ota by changing firmware. It's the reason I decided to keep the tim branded firmware on my thinq. As for the lg bridge update, maybe it notices a discrepancy between your build number and/or fingerprint and your system version and so blocks the installation. I'm mostly guessing here, I'm not an expert. You might try going back to your branded firmware and see what happens.

I have the same problem, LG G7 thinq SW Version V10b 222 01. It's the original version, I didn't flash any other firmware.

@jellysteve
I've solved my mirrorlink problem like this
I have G4 europe H815, brand vodafone
Search in this site kdz vodafon file
There's very few files kdz vodafone, not found for italy
I find in this link posted by a great guy here
Don't know if i can post the link, i have few posts
I can't, anyway, it's the list of kdz files here on the 3d "go back to stock G4"
I've download "portugal vodafone v10b"
It'real 10b, not 10c as some called 10b
Normal flash with lg support tool
And the vodafone 10b was in my g4
Automatically i find OTA update for v10c, 330mb
After the update with ota
The problem mirror link it's solved
So, you have mirror link problem after kdz file v10d?
Or problem after OTA update v10d?
Hope i can help-)
Hi-)

Hello
The link doesn't work even for me
So mirrorlink on g4 it's not easy to solve
You have international g4, so model H815?
I can't post links for now
I can't say this is the solution for you
But i solved mirrorlink in this way
Go here in the Forum at the section for G4:
G4 General- [Guide] LG G4 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock) KDZ & TOT Method by hyelton
In the middle of the post there's:" KDZ Firmware Files; HERE"
Click HERE
A link will open with some kdz files for G4
Download kdz before v10d
Important, your g4 is brand or no brand?
You have choose the right kdz for your G4
If you have H815 europe, try d.load these kdz file:
Europe General H81510B_00.kdz 1697378KB Jul 06 2015 04:43:29 PM
Or kdz files of your provider, if there's in list
As most of v10b kdz, it's not v10b, but v10c
Good for you 'cause you have v10d
Run lg flash tool 2014
Put kdz file
Select CSE flash
Leave all the others fields as they are
If Cse flash don't work, do normal flash
At the restart, you'll find v10c
And 99% find the Ota update for v10d
Before the Ota update do a hard reset
At the restart, run the Ota update v10d
And see if mirrorlink works
If not, with lg bridge run "fix update error"
Don't do with lg bridge the software update, this will put mirrorlink error
If you have windows 10, maybe Cse flash will not work
No prob, normal flash work back to v10b-c
Hope will work
Sorry for the long post-)
Yes I comfirm my g4 is h815 unbrand.
I found the kdz v10d for France it's my actual version.
I'm ok with the process : lg flash tool.. question if I use normal flash it's necessary to make hard reset or not.
Thanks for your help and time ?

The point is to go in downgrade, v10b or C
If you keep kdz file v10d, i think the problem remains
Your G4 is no brand, so in the link if kdz files try d.load the file kdz i've posted above
With flash tool try normal flash
So you have v10c, then accept the Ota v10d
And see if mirrorlink is solved
If not, do hard reset
Then with Lg bridge do fix errors update
I'm italian but i live in France like You
In this time is almost impossible download flash tool and drivers
Many french sites in these days have put in web around 50 virus
Keep update-)
Hello
I found V10C and I downgrade my g4 with flashtool and I make the update with lg bridge and same problem with mirrorlink
I make a hard reset and same problem I don't understand
I think i wait a new update for solve perhaps the problem.

Well mirrorlink is hard to solve
I've done the steps to solve m.link by my idea
Can't found nothing on web
I don't know if you have patience to make again all the steps
You said you update with Lg bridge after downgrade v10c
Only my opinion, this is the mistake while I'd m.link problem
I said in my previous post:"don't do with lg bridge the software update, this will put mirrorlink error"
If you want to retry
Downgrade v10c, wirh cse flash, then wait the OTA update, not update with lg bridge
The best way is downgrade v10b, like i did for vodafone
But v10b no brand kdz is hard to find
It depends what problems create m.link at your g4
If it's only the message at start, it's not bad problem
In my case, many icons of app on screen disappears
I hope is not your case
Just value the problem, only a message, it's not so bad
As you said, with a new update the problem should be solved
Hi-)
It's my guess, but i think mirrorlink problem will persist for those, who has unlocked bootloader and ignored LG warning that some apps, based on DRM will stop working

I totally agree
I'd unlocked my vodafone bootloader
And so here mirrorlink problem
It's strange that i've solved with downgrade and Ota update, but not @jellysteve case
Mirrorlink is useful if you have a modern car that fit with
If like me, i have a modern car not compatible
The error message m.link can be ignored
I must fix 'cause many icons of apps disappeared at start
But it seems icons problem, happened only for my G4!
Then, with windows 10 i can't do cse flash
So i go back to Win 7, and cse flash works
Hi-)
I started to face this problem, but my H815 fully stock, no unlocking, no rooting. And I wish it to stay that way for now... So the only solution for me is wait for LG to fix that?
Weird thing, I uninstalled quick circle apps, quick remote and quickify, and the problem seems to be gone

Is your bootloader unlocked and are you rooted?

no, I'm not rooted, bootloader locked. I started having this issue when I started experimenting with various apps for quick circle case.
Hello, maybe my solution will help for you too. Ive got h815, locked bootloader with low effort root.
Ive installed super manager app with root permissions. In the app go for the system folder, when you trying to enter switch system folder to r/w (the app automaticly asks it). Go to the priv-app search LgCover folder and rename the app inside of it with .bak extension. Reboot the phone.
After that repeat the process but you should remove .bak from the end of the app's name (back to the original) and reboot again. Mine started to work without any issues. I guess that will work with the mirrorlink app. Location of the app: system/app/MirrorLinkServer folder. You should do the same thing with it
Good luck

Update G4 H815T through LG Bridge but after finishing nothing has happened

I have an unlocked, not rooted H815T. I connected the phone to LG Bridge it shows me there is an update (H815T10E) approximately 1.65 GB (Marshmallow?). After I start the update it goes through all the steps normally, even the phone restarts and installs a new firmware and it says Update Complete.
When it finishes the update and restarts nothing changes, i still have Android 5.1 and software version V10e-HKG-XX which i got OTA. When i reconnect to LG Bridge it still shows Update Available (H815T10E).
I have tried a couple of times and does the same thing.
Is this the Marshmallow update? What should i do?
same here
It's quite frustrating, I don't know what to do about it
I will try too and see how i go

That's becos what your flashing is a LP rom. H815T10E is LP not MM.

The issue I'm having is that every time I update successfully when I reconnect to LG Bridge it tells me there's a new update
I'm getting this too on a Mac . I've tried three times now which take 50 minutes as it seems to download the file everytime. Any update on this? Are others getting the error on windows or mac?
Still wiating for a reply, I'm on Windows 10
same issues here too
H815T10E is Lolliop 5.1 update, its not Marshmallow updates, so everything is fine with your phone, Marshmallow starts with H815T20A, after flashing H815T10E if its showing another update, do it as well, there is no wrong in it, there will be no Marshmallow update for H815T for months, this is LG and there millions of ignored variants, to make us feel better, Marshmallow may not get any major UI changes any ways, for us to wait for it i guess.
A little off topic, how you unlock H815T? I have a same model and want to unlock
I had not seen stupid things like this since the time of OK the price is right
I got the same issue both in Windows 7 and Windows 10.
Have any of you been able to root v10e on the H815T? I only found the root for v10b...
Have the same problem, keeps showing the same 1.6Gb update over and over. The HK update was released for some it seems though.
i have the exact same problem is there any way to fix this??
well is no one have any answers??
I just got OTA v20c-HKG-xx. Roughly an 800 mb update
Update vire lgup
This is how to get 6.0.0 on lg g4 h815t. I have done it just download lgup then download lg g4 h815 kdz and follow the gide povided on the forum and you can't go wrong.

Need some help flashing 6.0 ffirmware to my h522f/h525n

Good day guys,
So after my phone went dead from a phone carrier update went bad i set up to find a way to fix it, and i did manage to Unbrick it back to android 5.
That was fine and all but on the process of fixing it i found out that the android 6 update is still not available at my country (living in 3º world suck) so after some research i found that my phone (h522f) is the same as h525n and since them i ve been trying to find a way to flash a v20a image with android 6 from the h525 whit no luck.
Tried LGUP, it shows "unknown"
Tried a lot of different version of LG Flash tool (the 2014 version was the one capable of fixing my phone but it does not flash the h525 kdz and the other versions give me a failed previous load error)
Tried KDZ_FW_UPD (does not open)
Tried changing the build.prop
So what i want to ask is if there is any way to flash a firmware from the h525 to my phone or if i have to w8 for lg to release an official update?

Yeah OTA may not work depending on what model you have and from what region is your phone.
LG Bridge also doesn't work since it checks IMEI and if it matches the firmware region. It knows when something doesn't add up
If you want to update you can find the correct firmware for your phone or use an older LG UP version to update without losing data.
Either way I find it useless to update since it's just a security patch and nothing more
Wow really thanks! So I'll wait for some major update
Can I update via LG Bridge after unlocking and root? Wont it brick the phone?
How to I find out which KDZ file to download? My phone is EM, Central europe. Or it doesnt matter? What is the difference between rom regions? Is there any universal unbloated EM kdz?

H815 ota update problemm!!!

Hi, I have a G4 H815. I would like to use WiFi Calling but I couldn’t enable these features with flashing many KDZs via LGUP. I have learnt that I can’t get these features with flashing and hard reset. Therefore I’ve flashed old version of Marshmallow (like v20a or v20b etc.) and I tried to update to latest version of Marshmallow to get WiFi calling feature. But this time, when I checked the updates on phone it just says “this is the latest version of this OS” , but it isn’t. How can I fix that issue??? PLEASE HELP MEEE...
