What versionnis ur g4 on if u update past zva u can no longer downgrade and root
@TheMadScientist420
Sorry was supposed to be in the S4 forums. I had my phone (lg g4) and my backup (s4) pages open. Posted on wrong one. I do apologize.
The reason i ask this is cause i was getting a error 407 while trying to update. Formated phone and now when trying to update it goes to hands free activation. This is going to be a wifi phone (no service just games)
home and at pc finally,
from what i can gather there is no 6.0 for the galaxy S4 sprint just 5.1 correct?

I purchased an unlocked verizon LG g2 and running T-mobile carrier.
how can I upgrade to Lollipop? I did not see any updates
Thanks.
The VS980 is unlocked regardless. You can upgrade to lollipop and still use it on Tmobile with no issues.
The only thing is that you are running a verizon rom, with apps geared toward verizon. BUT if it works fine now, it will work the same on Lollipop.
I would recommend rooting, installing TWRP, and manually upgrading to the official Tmobile Lollipop build:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-g2/development/rom-t-mobile-20g-rom-vs980-1-16-15-t3004979
This rom is MADE for the VS980 to run on Tmobile. It is just the official Tmobile rom that is tweaked to be flashable on our Verizon models. You will gain WiFi Calling and other Tmobile special features.
The good thing is you have lots of options. No matter what rom you install, you should still have no problem working with Tmobile.
No offense to above, but here is the real answer: connect phone to PC via USB cable. Click Verizon upgrade assistant. Install and run. Done.

Hahaha. Yup. I read it as "Can I upgrade to Lollipop on the VS980 and still use it on Tmobile".
Thank you all !
It took me a while to figure out where to find the Software Upgrade Assistant (LG) and make it work.
in case someone else like me cannot find how to install the Software Upgrade Assistant (LG), I attached a link below.
http://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-105461/
and still, it took me another 20 minutes to figure out on the installation.
please try to switch to another usb port if the first one does not show up the LG screen....
btw, I am still trying to upgrade to LP with my T-Mobile SIM inside and might need your help as well....one step at a time...
:crying:

Because ATT devices update from ATT not Samsung. Without the ATT sim your device won't be recognised as an ATT device.
This is how it's worked for other devices on ATT.

i Just upgraded the tablet to android 7 using its firmware i did not have its original at&t sim card lying around so i had to manually update the device you can manually update it
and no even if you try to debrand this tablet out of the at&t firmware there might be some chances that certain functions like wifi and bluetooth might not work due to the modem that at&t devices use i don,t know about this theory either and i can only assume that this might happen to your device it happened to me on my lg g2 where i installed the wrong firmware
Hopes this helps
sorry for my bad english
Where Did you get your update From? i Have an AT&T t-818a and on the att website there have been 2 other additional update but i guess without the AT&T sim it just wont work? Is this true, can anyone confirm this? I dont see why you would need the AT&t sim if the build/firmware number is specific to AT&T. Another reason to hate AT&T i guess!
T817AUCU2CQE3 here:
http://combinefile.com/home/browse/category/id/9448/T817AUCU2CQE3
Yeah I did T 18178 ever since I've had it it won't update already had to go twice to get new SIM cards from AT&T I've never not had an AT&T SIM card but it still does it regardless I noticed now it's been another year I haven't got another update and multiple behind it just happens. Did you know for the longest time and then I had to start going there and telling them just to do it right away and then you try to say I will do all this stuff and not think that would even help until doing all of it and then finally after continually telling them refusing that wouldn't do anything but it's but it happened the last time. Ridiculous provider websites pretty much unusable because it takes ridiculous times to get to information that's useless anyways, every time you want to go to a new page it's trying to make you log in security again
There is a version 7. And honestly I worked on my for a looong time and could never get it to update so I Just took it to the Samsung guys at best buy they did it no problem. being you are not in the US I'm not sure what to recommend.
Baseband: N950USQS3BRA8
Note 8 is unlocked and currently with T-MOBILE, previously AT&T. I've search all day today and still can't find why I don't have the Oreo update yet. I have the Samsung keis software and it tells me I'm up to date. Did it ever come out for my baseband? I apologized in advance if this was already talked about, I only saw discussions about it being rooted. I want to keep it stock. Thanks

You can check for latest firmware related to your specific model on sammobile.com, then download through updato.com (or using the SamFirm tool) and flash it through Odin.

Since you're using it with T-Mobile and it was previously AT&T you're not going to get updates anymore unless you use an AT&T sim card.. The only way to get the updates at this point is to download the update firmware yourself and flash it through odin. The reason being is because T-Mobile doesn't carry AT&Ts firmware updates so you have to get it yourself.. It's easy as hell to find the firmware on places like Android File Host. Also do not download T-Mobile firmware it will not flash... Use AT&Ts firmware only.
I have a AT&T iPhone 7 from work, you guys think if I take that SIM and put it into the Note 8 the updates would come through? I was looking through the Sam mobile thing. You guys make it seem easy to manually update and I'm terrified being my first time doing it that way. But if you think the SIM card swap would work I'll give that a try first.

The sim card swap should work.. Can't hurt, try it and then check for updates.
It worked!!!
I swapped out the sim cards and it worked!
I ended up having to back up the device and restore, since the update wasn't showing up. I cleared the cache, checked and nothing. After restoring the phone the update became available. After the 8.0.0. update there was about 4 updates after (security patches). I'm now on 8.0.0 with Aug 2018 security patch. I put my tmobile sim card back in and restarted the phone. I even get the tmobile screen during boot up which I never gotten since I switched back in February. All in all it's working fine. I'll update if anything crops up. Thank you all for your help!
You can push software update with this procedure.
put this in your phone app: *#8736364#
Then go to Field Test mode.
Change "Device Initiated date" to one or a few minute ahead. wait until you see "SET" then press Home.
Wait until you see software update to kick it.
Try several times if it doesn't work at first.

A few years ago,I had the same issue (using an unlocked AT&T phone on another network) & I had to get a cheap prepaid AT&T SIM to get the OTA update pushed to my phones (Note & LG G Flex2).
I had heard this wasn't the case anymore,but,I found this post from an AT&T forum & it still seems to be the case:
https://forums.att.com/t5/Samsung/A...date-when-not-on-AT-amp-T/td-p/5591432#M38714
You might as well use Odin,it won't hurt a thing,you'll still have Knox intact/etc.........

I just received the OTA for Android 10 on ATT. Build is QKQ1.190929.002 Software ver G820UM20i. Kinda sad to complain but its still security patch level Dec 1, 2019
Got it too!
Confirmed...https://flic.kr/p/2ioVmJ9
yes, checked and got it. thanks for the news
Finally! The great thing is that it finally fixes audio lag issues I've had with various bluetooth headphones for forever. The bad thing is that it still doesn't appear to work with a Dualshock 4 for PS4 remote play (apparently Sony maintains a list of "Android 10 phones" instead of actually checking your OS, which seems crazy to me, but I suppose is not directly LGs fault).
Can someone EXTRACT firmware file and share it with other G8 ATT users?
Updated here too.. Dissapointed w/the horizontal recents list, so clunky and slow..
May any one share the firmware? Thank you

I saw on here if you remove your Sim card, then factory reset and don't connect to anything including wifi, so skip everything to get to the home screen. Then connect to WiFi and check for updates it works. I did it and boom, I had to go through about 5 updates, but it all worked.

I got it to work using a prepaid go sim card i bought on ebay for $2 but now i regret updating it cos my phone sluggish and it s draining battery much faster than before. I had an issue where incoming calls go straight to voicemail and i thought android 10 can fix that but the problem still persists.
