Today I decided to snoop around and flex my knowledge on these companies. I spoke with several TMobile representatives and LG representatives. It was like pulling Alligator teeth, but I finally got the answer I wanted.
"The G6 H87210h update was pulled from OTA due to complications."
What complications?
"In some cases, the update would download and install incorrectly and cause handsets to cease functioning properly."
Basically the OTA was killing phones and bootlooping....
"LG advises users to patiently wait for the next OTA to be pushed. If users cannot wait patiently for the next update they are welcomed and encouraged to use LG Bridge to update their H872 devices to H87210h firmware."
This took me more than 4hrs to get from my personal interrogation from both TMobile and LG.
Also, I have a pretty good assumption that a soon coming update for our device (h872) will be 7.1.1, could be wrong but I'm almost positive.
I tried the lg bridge and it says it couldn't detect my software version
I updated mine using LG bridge 3 days ago. Be warned it took over 2 hours to complete.
Is there something special you have to do because every time i try it says can't find what software i have

Its a serious pain in the arse for sure!
But I'm just waiting for the next update. LG said before launch that the G6 would get 7.1.x and now the Q6 is launching with 7.1.1, so it seems like they may actually give us a better update. Who knows when though?
I'm also hoping my G4 sees Nougat soon as well like they promised. .
I really just want newer security updates since my G6 has March security patch and my G4 (in stock form) has April patch. But I'm running LineageOS on the G4 so it has July Security patch and 7.1.2.
I really just want TWRP & Root for the G6 so I can debloat and enjoy my phone more with ad blocking and little mods like better Bootanimation and various tweaks, maybe a new kernel.. LOL

No, it's just dumb.
Keep your screen on until it recognizes it.
USB debugging on, maybe.
While plugged in, tap the usb notification and change it to different things. Restart LG bridge on the PC..

Cant tell yet after i get 24 hours i will let you know
Hey all, I'm interested in getting a T-Mobile branded G6 but curious what security update it's on? Also, on 7.1? I had an unlocked one from Amazon and it was stuck on March security update. And that was at the end of June! Hoping the carrier models are doing a little better. Thanks in advance
What is new in this update? I keep seeing all this stuff about everyone trying to update and I just want to know if it's really worth my time.
Standby battery life seems slightly improved. Other than that, April 1st security patch is the only other difference that I can tell.

The update bricked my watch. I noticed it wasn't connecting with my phone so I reset device. Now it won't boot beyond the LG logo. Accessing the recovery mode of the bootloader did nothing. Still progressed to the logo and then died.
I received update too, installed it successfully, I feel watch smoother but I don't know if it is due to cleaned cache etc.

This was quite a big update. Mine needed ca. 1/2 hour to update with several restarts and I needed to reset to factory and configure watch again resulting in 50% battery-loss.
So, I have a new watch (that I haven't opened, yet), and I'm thinking that I should just wait for Android Wear 2.0 to come out before my first usage, rather than install an update now, and another big update in a couple of weeks.
What do you all think?

Well as far as I know its never been confirmed our watch (original urbane) will get 2.0 I don't know they have made a statement either way actuallu. Now if you have the lte urbane yes you will get 2.0 but waiting seems silly either way. You spend all that money on a watch why not use it?
Yeah not really understanding the thought process on that. You've bought it. Just use it and enjoy it. Android wear 2.0 will be a nice chance if we get it, but there is nothing wrong with the current software.

on spanish lg urbane site it states that this watch has 2.0
as a physical button is a requirement (which the urbane has) it's very likely to get 2.0 while seeing they are putting out a good job delivering security patches.
I've read numerous sources saying the Urbane will get Wear 2. And given that it's LG's last generation of smartwatch behind only the Urbane 2nd edition, and that it fulfils all hardware requirements to get the update, it really wouldn't speak well of LG's support for their hardware if they refuse to give it the update. And strictly speaking, the Watch R should also get it given that the only difference between it and the Urbane is visual, but as that is two generations back it's perhaps expecting a little too much.
I for one will be p****d if LG leave the Urbane behind with this update.

Not really, the complaint level of AW2 is so high, of laggy performance, we may be having a favor done for us as tuning is being done before we get. There was an update for earlier released watches this last day which is getting positive feedback. So that is making me think we'll get it very soon now, I think tomorrow.

Lol swing and a miss. The wear 2.0 developer preview got taken down though, so either its coming soonish or we're just getting f***** on this one. All the indications are there.why would we buy the watch sport if we can flash the 2.0 developer preview?

I downloaded and saved the most recent AW1.5 and AW2 DP. I tried AW2 DP and it was awful, so went back to AW1.5 which I saved in case when AW2 officially released it is still awful.
We're being done a favor getting AW2 late but now I see happy noises on the June release, I'm seeing less reason to wait. But if there is a reason its no bad thing. The only thing I can't do is Android Pay.
If anyone does have the time to try AW2 then by all means flash DP and realize its a totally different everything interface, as I've been on AW now >2 years I find it awkward interface, noobs would take less retraining.
Someone likely has the googleapis link, I just have the file locally backedup.
Android Wear 2.0 fow the W200* is finaly here (well via OTA in Korea... For us via adb sideload )

I updated earlier today. Made my first successful Android Pay purchase this afternoon. I never tried the preview so I'm still learning all the tricks/quirks of 2.0.
Sweet . Very cool , are you a US model though ? And did you use an OTA update or use PC with unlocked bootloader to flash it ?

Yes I have the AT&T model, W200A. I used the minimal adb and fastboot tool to sideload the zip file from my PC. I didn't have to unlock the bootloader.
i updated my w200a today with the korea version. however it felt more like another preview than a final release. Lag is present like on the preview, overheats somewhat easily and the battery drains way faster when you are using it than when you are on 1.5. At least this is my case on the w200a. I did a fsctory reset to see if that solved but no. Same result.
I have the at&t urbane 2 LTE (unlocked)
Until today I was running developer preview (nemo-nvf41u-factory-e269c504)
I had an update come through which has given me:
build number NXH20E
(ANDROID WEAR 2.0.0.159006699)
with security patch 1st May 2017.
The top and bottom buttons are working (re programmed through the options)

I'm in the US and I updated using ADB and the file captured from the ota in Korea and these numbers match exactly to mine.
Found any bugs/issues yet? I've had an occasional lag or two. Android Pay is working and I've successfully tracked runs with GPS using ghostracer paired to the phone through cell data (my main usage requirement).
Not found any bugs on mine.
I have a few side loaded apps that may have been causing the odd glitch now and again whilst on the developer preview, but nothing since the update.
(Side loaded es file explorer so I could use MP3 ringtone on the watch & Google drive to download / upload)
I'm in the US with ATT version. Just got OTA last night. So far so good.

Since decryption and debloating it's a very fast phone. Will keep it a while.
The only disadvantage is the round back. On table/desk, input is not easy when the phone is spinning.

The only disadvantage imho is the soon no longer software support, but I don't really know what it really involves as security patches are not quite safer. (critical breaches will always be updated as XP was with wannacry)

Never had a problem with the round back. Using a case and always lay it on table on its front, since the case is closed no problm with scratches on the screen.
Phone is debloated too. But even without debloating it runs fine and for me fast enough.
Think it is usually about the 5 or 6 th of month released if any.

An update on the new version, my first attempt at flashing N6F27H from the Factory Image (not OTA) ended up with the CPU running at 100% nearly all of the time with no Deep Sleep seen. I just reflashed the Factory Image for N6F27H again and I'll update whether the results are the same or better this time.

yeah. ive also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver for the g6 and uninstalling and reinstalling lg bridge. i reached out to lg support and they told me lg bridge is only for backing up my phone
Finally got the 11e update last night via OTA. Finally!
It doesn't seem much different, maybe smoother. But this is the first time I updated my G6 since I'd bought it. So, maybe it's just better now.
Still don't fully understand why they labeled it as 11 though. Bummer its still 7.0 and not 7.1.x. 7.1.2 would be good on the g6. But regardless I'm getting similar battery life on my G6 and V30.

I can't get the update either, even after several reboots. My phone keeps stating it is up to date.
I have a different problem with LG Bridge. When LG Bridge gets to the part where it starts downloading the update, I get a message stating there's a server error and to try again. It doesn't get past 0%. I've been getting this message for the past 4 days.

For what its worth, a tmo rep said that the update should be available for everyone by the 17th at the latest.

I haven't found any issues so far. I think its just minor bug fixes, addition of face unlock from V30, & Security Patch for November.
Haven't tried fastboot yet, i doubt it'll even work. But fingers crossed. Luckily my g6 is paid off and SIM unlocked, not that it matters..
