Android 10 for LG G7 ThinQ ?

Will we get update for this phone? I read some news from internet but they all said lg g8 and lg g7 one will get this update. What about thinq model?

Wait till 2021.

I think EM variant users can try Android 10 GSI based rom officially released by Google. As it requires unlocked bootloader with project trebal supported device.

I am not sure about GSI variants, but in my pixel i can hardly see anything new except that ridiculously messed up gestures. Other than that i can say that security wise there are few improvements here and there. :fingers-crossed:
If the rom works i think you should be able to use other camera apps.

Other apps yes but I realy like stock lg.
And that one don't work. Probobly I won't be able to switch camera on vanilla either

I have an EM version but if I unlock the bootloader, won't that keep me from using "secure" apps like HD Netflix, banking, Google Pay, etc?

Expected Android 10 release date
LG G7 ThinQ Q2 2020
LG G7 One Q4 2019

I havet get android 10 today. Lol

With every new android update, some features are removed and some apps no longer work (w/o root)
Eg all call recorders are broken, and location features in macrodroid from android 9
What's newly broken from 10?

Patiently waiting...still...
So I've been patiently waiting on my LMG710ULM device to get Android 10 here in the US. I've seen nothing and all my LG tools (Bridge, Support Tool) are showing G710ULM20f (Android 9, February patch) as the latest software.
Please tell me there will be something available for this device soon? I purchased this Unlocked specifically to ensure I'd get the updates faster than they would come from a Verizon locked phone. Just not feeling the love back from LG that I show to their phones. To clarify...I can't root this device because I have it registered with my work to get all my mobile tools (Teams, Outlook, Authenticator), so I have to wait on an official release.

Also, if you want to root it, you could use an app that lets you use the work profile (like shelter) and use work apps there

Realme 5 Pro - realme UI V1.0 Android 10 - Official version available for download

The official Android 10 version for Realme 5 Pro is available for download from official site.
Official Download link
Impressed with the performance and new UI. It includes updates for VoWifi as well.
But also found that some bloatwares got installed along with the update.

Way better performance!!!!
I was checking the official website like every ten minutes. I downloaded it as soon as I saw the update. The size was almost 3.5GB. It took only 6-7 minutes for installation. And to be honest Realme UI looks way better than ColorOS. I played PUBG for almost an hour and the gameplay was much better than before. It gave me constant 45fps even when screen recording!!! Gonna try 60fps tomorrow!!

On the indian website, the new version is available, but on the european website, it still shows the old update with ColorOS 6...
I wonder if the version on the indian website is the same for every country? If so, can I install it without causing problem? Or should I wait for OTA?

Thanks for the heads up! Installing it now.

Well I just noticed that the smart sidebar is gone with Realme UI... Before the update I had it and now I can find it in the settings, it's a shame, I heard that they revamped it with Realme UI, I wonder why I don't have it on my phone...

Factory data reset fixes it.

I already download and install this file from recovery. There is no problem about this update, and also I have my new smart sidebar.

Oh I see, well I installed it directly by selecting the update in the file manager. Do you think I should just reinstall it via file recovery? And what if I don't wanna wipe my data?

In my experience with both custom and stock ROMs on several different phones,, a data reset or clean flash is always a good idea with major OS upgrades, i.e between android versions. That's why I bit the bullet and reset it. Runs fine after.

Initial impressions of Realme UI after using it for 48 hours
1. Battery is terrible. Does not last me for a work day (100% in the morning and it dies out before night). I have done a factory reset to no avail
2. I dont see 4G+ anymore.
3. Wifi speeds have increased significantly
4. GPS lock happens rather quickly now
5. The phone is always warm and gets a bit hot when used for a longer period. I dont play any games. Just emails, browser and some social media
6. RealmeUI seems like a half cooked product. Especially the dark mode (and vice versa)

thank you for the review.
does ram management get better with this update?
in android 9, the apps auto killing even after turning off all battery savings.

Can I install this with TWRP?
does it wipe all my data and remove my root,Magisk, and TWRP?
if it does remove all my data, my root is there any workaround method to update ?
Sorry I'm a newbie that just learnt how to root last month ?

I did not notice any background app killing and have not noticed the RAM mgmt. I have the 6Gb version so not to particular.
This was a wonderful device on Pie. Q just killed it. I had raised an issue on the community portal and the response was quite silly (turn off wifi, it is summer, use dark mode etc). So either we patiently wait for the patch or switch to another phone if you already have one.
If you have not updated yet, i would recommend hold on

Still don't have the smart sidebar.
Google Assistant opens automatically nearly everytime I hit return
This update is so broken

No Netflix HD on Redmi Note 8 Pro - after update on Android 10

Hi guys,
I've been waiting for the Android 10 update so I can watch Netflix in HD, that did not come up, so I've manually updated to this: MIUI Global 11.0.2 Stable, 11.0.2.0 (QGGEUXM) - Android 10 QP1A.190711.020
I've checked on the Netflix app, but the streaming quality is still SD. I've deleted the app data, I've tried different internet connections, I've reset the device, I've reinstalled the app but nothing worked.
I've also tried with older versions of Netflix, still it does not work. When I check the Playback Specification WIDEVINE shows as L3 for some reason, it should be L1.
Can someone please help me with this?

It didn't work at first for me. But uninstalling and re-installing the app fixed it.

same goes here, I received the update via OTA and when I checked Netflix it still doesn't stream in HD. Uninstalled and reinstalled the app and did a factory rest but there's no difference as the streaming is still SD.

clear Netflix app cache and try again. it is clearly mentioned in android 10 notes.

For me clearing cache doesn't help. It's still SD.

As I mentioned before, my first attempt after receiving Android 10 didn't really work. Then I reinstalled the app once again lately and somehow it recognized my phone, so I got L1 cert.

I'm sorry but I have only updated from the MIUI Updater by downloading latest package and force applying it. I've never attempted it your way. Do I have to create downloaded_rom folder in default emulated/0 path or somewhere else? Also, do I have to flash it from the bootloader or what? My phone is unrooted just so you know. Please tell me if there will be any negative implications of this.

You can share all information that you know here like how to install it from where to download it etc.

Well at the moment I can share information but not the build, since it's not internally approved yet.
Approval is supposed to be received by end of this week and in a moth commercial launch should begin.
For EU (and I guess also GLOBAL) there are no big changes between Android 12 / MUI 13 and Android 13 / MUI 14: as usual XIAOMI for EU leaves out most of the advanced features of the China MIUI, plus some Android featutres are totally ignore (like the nw themed icons).
In addition form a GUI point of view, MIUI 14 till has some glitches:
Icons in noritifications are not color on color

like it was on MIUI 13 (reference phone for MIUI 13 and Android 12 is Xiaomi 12 PRO)
The strange thing here is that the icon appear bad only when notification is compacted, while when expanded it look ok:
Some texts are not nicely aligned (example below is for alarm snoozing)
You can also tell from the SIM choosing, in MIUI 14 the SIM number is not properly cenetred
like it was on MIUI 13
And few more misalignemts or word-wrapping are present.
I believe that, besides the icon issue, the main text glitches are due to the fact that (looking at dev option) the SMALLEST WIDTH (i.e. the PPI) in MIUI 14 is set to 388dp instead of 411: why I don't know.

Thanks for information, so, Can I ask how is Google Voice Assistant works well on EU rom?

Question Help needed to return to Android 12 stable

I opted in for the beta of A13 with my Vivo X80 Pro (Europe version).
The battery drain gets worse every week.
Now I found out that to downgrade to the stable version, I need to send the phone to VSP Data.
That is on the other side of Europe for me.
So, I want to downgrade it myself.
How to do this? Because all the tutorials I found online are outdated, incorrect or incomplete.
At the moment PD2185BF_EA_A_13.1.11.7.W30 is installed.
I did a lot of custom ROM with the HTC HD2, Samsung S3 and Xioami's before. But cant get this simple downgrade to go
Who can guide me with a complete tutorial and working drivers (for Windows 11 Enterprise)?

If you have the Mediatek version, you may have some luck experimenting with mtkclient. We do such downgrades on 1+ Nord2 without bootloader unlock, so it might be possible to do something similar here as well.
If you don't think you have the chops to figure it all out, wait till somebody with your device does though.

The EU version (W30) is the Snapdragon variant.

Welp, if the official instructions don't work for you (people have mixed success with it), you're indeed hosed and you'll have to send it in.

I suggest going to the service center if there is one in your country. They can downgrade it there.
Or just wait until stable or more capable beta versus on of A13 is up.

Sorry if someone already mentioned this but have you tried the Vivo downgrader computer application? It's the only thing that let me downgrade. I do have the Chinese version though so I am not sure if it only works on that.

This looks to be a Chinese program.
I'm afraid it will brick my phone since my ROM is EU and not Chinese.

Does Vivo not have service in your country? I also tried donwgrade, but unfortunately I didn't find any working tools, ROMs, or procedure....
I have the same FW version as you and I have no battery problem. Check your apps. Often some update with gplay fails and then there is excessive consumption.

How about this?

Does Vivo not have service in your country? I also tried donwgrade, but unfortunately I didn't find any working tools, ROMs, or procedure....
I have the same FW version as you and I have no battery problem. Check your apps. Often some update with gplay fails and then there is excessive consumption.

They did, that is why I bought the phone.
But after 2 months they stopped.
Never a Vivo phone for me ever again.

This looks to be a Chinese program.
I'm afraid it will brick my phone since my ROM is EU and not Chinese.

Ahhh I'm on Chinese version of the phone. Origin OS.

And the 'local upgrade' function on the phone worked. (for the first time of all the tries).
But after the restart, it said the upgrade failed because the installed version is newer.
