LG G8 ThinQ Sprint is rolling Android 10 final - LG G8 Guides, News, & Discussion

Manually check for this update. Don't worry if it doesn't pop up right away. Give it 1 day or 2.
LG has kept his promises. Nice job! ?

Can confirm. Checked for update and it's there. Proof I'm downloading right now
EDIT: after update https://imgur.com/a/e8IQtBF

Meanwhile T-Mobile is going to take all damn year probably.

Got the update on all three phones in the family today. Quick question, please tell me there's a way to switch back to the vertical recent apps? As much as I understand the push for "being more like an iPhone," could they not push everyone into that camp? I quite like the vertical recent apps and fail to see how this horizontal view is any kind of upgrade.

Anyone able to update over the v20a android 10 version that was floating around? The one quite a few of us installed?

Hello!
Could someone help me with this? It's stuck like this for like 5hrs, tried rebooting and it just goes back to "updating 89%"

That version was a "haçked" version of the beta as far as I know you are going to have to roll back to the official pie version in order to get the official OTA upgrade to Android 10

Anyone figure out how to remove the app icons on the recent apps page....very annoying.
Also, no new second screen option? When I tap on new second screen under display settings, nothing happens.

For some reason you can't enter second screen settings when you're using night mode. You have to disable night mode and then you'll be able to customize second screen. Dumb, I know.

My recents button no longer works. I'm using Nova Launcher. I deleted the LG Home Launcher by accident. I really don't want to do a hard reset.

No volume slider in notification panel
GPS status is a bit worse
No lock/hide button in Home touch button .
Is there a way to revert back to 9.0 ?

I'm getting a black screen after face unlock. The phone unlocks when I look at it, then it goes to a black screen, which I have to tap to see the home screen.
Anyone else?

They are hacked, the source of the beta said as much on their site, they only way too get the official beta was to download the beta application (windows only) from LG and update your phone to the beta. Using their software to install the official beta also gives one the option to roll back to pie. If you install the beta this way you will also be able to get the final version OTA. It looks like the official Android 10 for Sprint has started to roll out to users, ahead of the other US carriers, which is quite a change for Sprint as they are usually last, the other carriers should follow fairly soon, with the unlocked and Amazon variants following lastly.

What is the Last Version software in Portugal

I'm seriously thinking about buying this equipment. I'm in Portugal and can someone tell me what the latest version available from LG. After buying it, do not want to root and say V10H version is better.

To install by KDZ, the mobile phone has to be root, right? I do not want to do it and just wanted to update by FOTA. I would thus know which version of the update available in Portugal.
Thanks for helping.
No need to be root to flash KDZ. I did it yesterday on my v10c brazilian ROM and flash'ed v10h for root. I'm using pt-pt.

don't buy this phone. This don't has good stuff like unlocked bootloader or jelly bean. If you want gameing wait and buy tegra 4 phones, hope to come feb or march. Or to get a daily driver try note 2 or sgs3.

Anyone in Mexico has recieved the oreo update yet?

Basically the title, has anyone with a note 8 in Mexico recieved the oreo update yet?
I'm very excited to try it out...!!
No bro I'm just waiting like you but I hope that we can get it soon hopefully
I dont think anybody who bought by official distribuitors (telcel, movistar AT&T) has received it yet, Elektra sells a somewhat odd 950U note 8, snapdragon 64 GB, but sammobile lists Mexico 950F with 7.1.1 for the three carriers, we will have to wait some more days
Guys I'm downloading it right now!! I entered settings and software updates and boom! Just like that it's 1329.19 mb. Now to wait...

Sammobile now shows that telcel is receiving oreo
Anyone have any information about AT&T update? Telcel and Movistar are receiving Oreo, but nothing yet for AT&T users.
While my old now 5 keeps receiving (security) updates, there's nothing for the Note 8.
Can I just flash some other firmware and keep using Samsung pay?

Moto Z3 Chinese version: How to change ZUI software to pure Android

I am still investigating if buying a Z3 (without "Play") would make sense to me.
US Verizon version does not seam to be money well spent for me because of unlockable bootloader and only single SIM support. So I am putting out my feelers on Chinese version. I have not considered this one before, because it will not come with pure Android, but with ZUK's ZUI what I do not want at all.
But some days ago, I got an information about the possibility to replace ZUI software with Verizon pure Android version. Bootloader of Chinese version is unlockable, so this would not be any problem in general. Unfortunately, the tutorial to do the software changeover is written in Chinese and Google translator's output only lets me guess what will have to be done. Before I will buy a device for more then 500$, I wanna be sure what to do to get it like I want it with minimal risk to brick it.
Therefore, I would be grateful if somebody speaking Chinese could help by explaining here in English the neccessary steps to come to pure Android on that device. Here is a link to the mentioned tutorial: https://club.lenovo.com.cn/thread-4659746-1-1.html
I am not a flashing novice - I would only need some short instruction which steps I have to do and what I have to care for. No need to explain how to unlock bootloader, how to install and ADB and so on.
Why you just don't buy a chinese android pure version? If I'm not wrong, lightinthebox is selling such version and without ZUI
This won't run on Verizon properly since the IMEI won't be in their database.

Yeah, it shouldn't work for a Verizon user, but OP never said that is going to use it on that carrier. And according the profile user is from Europe.
I'm interested in having a US Z3 Play with ZUI rom, since it's cheaper to buy the US Play version than the Z3 with ZUI from China. I really like the ZUI Android, so, does someone knows where i can find the original ZUI rom for the Z3?
Thanks a lot.

I own a Motorola P30 (ZUI-based) and the OS is horrible. Too many bugs!
I'm NOT a fan of ZUI skin. It's like Lenovo didn't bother making it a polished UI. They just want to have something else because it is being sold in China.
Bugs on accessibility setting (will reset to OFF). This is ANNOYING as you can't use a proper app that needs accessibility services. You ALWAYS have to turn it on again and again.
Bug on 3rd party apps like IG and FB. Video watching is useless as you cannot watch in HD. So all IG stories and FB videos are pixelated.
If you upload a story in IG, it will upload a video with 15FPS like you are watching something from 1 decade ago!
I'm using a Chinese version Z3 XT1929-15 in the US which is flashed into pure android(verizon), and it works fine with ATT network(vzw not tested).
It's quite easy if you have ever flash a motorola cell phone.
First you must unlock your phone here: motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-b (sorry I cannot post a url)
Second download the firmware here: mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/messi/official/VZW/
Then flash the whole image with RSD Lite or fastboot commands. A wipe is needed if you manually flash the files. Then enjoy the phone with verizon firmware, you can disable the verizon apps if you don't like(you can do it with Debloater)

Snake, by any chance could you achieve root on the device? For some reason when I flash Magisk I finish with bootloop (then I flash Magisk uninstaller and go back to stock without issues). I guess I'm forgetting something about the procedure, but I can't figure out.. Thank you in advance!!

How did u manage to unlock the bootloader and install the Verizon firmware.
Mine does even give the unlock code.
Both rsd lite and the fastboot commands are not working.

I am not an expert like you on cell phones, but is there anything that can be done to update it? Thank you
Sorry for getting back so late... Got another phone in the meantime, but I am still very interested in Z3 XT1929-15. Didn't know that lightinthebox sold this one with pure Android, but no matter, it is sold out there. Any idea where I can still get it from? I am from Germany / Europe - so no matter whether it works with Verizon or not. Would not even mind buying a pre-owned one if it's in a really good condition.

I have got one at Aliexpress. It is a chineese XT1929-15, but comes with already unlocked BL and reflashed to stock Verizon, that is very convenient. I doubt that it will work with Verizon, but it works with european carriers without any problem, both sims. Little overpriced though.

Yes, XT1929-15 can be updated to 9.0. You can flash the latest stock Verizon rom via flashall. But the radio must remain chineese (do not flash radio part, you need to exclude appropriate lines, fastboot flash modem and fastboot flash fsg, from flashall.bat)
@Legza
Page not found ?
@Maheshwara
You need to be registered there to open direct link.
Or just open the root, aliexpress.com, and search for "Moto Z3", it's there.

AT&T July 2019 update (incl. Night Sight) N960USQU2CSGA

The update is pretty hefty, weighing in at 882M. Downloaded and installed in about 10 minutes. One cosmetic thing I noticed immediately is that it makes the NFC icon persistent when it's on (previous builds only showed the icon when you pulled down the notification shade). The annoying charging status on the AOD screen is still there. Was hoping that went away after being introduced in the last build.
any possibility i can grab the zip to flash?
thank you
I still don't have it ??*
