Finally v10e OTA came for ANEUTN. :victory:

Changelog said:

1. Power Optimization

2. Apps
[G3 General] daleski75:
D85510g is now rolling out in Italy and Austria.
[G3 General] latino147:
I'm really wondering if there is a real difference between E/F/G as they are rolling them out everywhere at the same time.

And I even got 10b because I've got a T-mobile branded version in Holland (others in Holland also get 10e).

So it might all be the same version we are dealing with here, just with different suffixes to differentiate between providers?
[G3 General] daleski75:
Hard to tell really but people like to flash the latest just in case I think.
[G3 General] Razertje:
Did anyone already fix this problem? Having the same problem right now...
[G3 General] denis111:
Aaah, finally 10E for ASWSTN 32gb !!! don't check it with imei link, it's still 10A there, check OTA from the settings menu ;)
[G3 General] dondavis007:
Took the update and I'm still rooted. Hopefully the less warm part will help me out because my phone has constantly been shutting down since we arrived in Turkey on semester :)
[G3 General] incognico:
Sounds possible, at least for E/F/G - but I don't think it's the case for B.
[G3 General] zige:
With LG PC Suite or what?
[G3 General] TheTenth:
Just updated through OTA and still have root access. Worked perfect.
[G3 General] zige:
Thanks mate! :)

Please others... If you tell that you updated without losing root please tell also which way, OTA or with PC Suite... It isn't helpful if you guys just tell that you updated and keeped root because we cant know which way you updated. Thanks!
[G3 General] Japultra:
I think you can assume OTA.
[G3 General] Lookinen:
Wont accept ota here. Just complains abouy root. I have tried everything. I uninstalled everything related to root and disabled root but still nothing. Guess I have to update via computer when I get home from work.
[G3 General] ant78:
Any ideas why I'm still on 10a here in the UK and other people have had updates?
[G3 General] Japultra:
Did you mess with your DPI at all?
[G3 General] Lookinen:
Yea I have changed it but I did change it to stock before trying to update.
[G3 General] nazrin313:
On stock firmware i was getting about 5hrs sot after the update only a max of 4hrs...not feeling this new update guys
[G3 General] düdldihüü:
Well, for me it didn't change, unfortunately. However, the drain now shifted toward cell standby. I'm not quite sure what is happening but I'm sitting at 72 % battery with 28 min SOT. Screen drained 22 %, standby drained 20 % and Android OS drained 20 % as well. My daily schedule was the same as always, so no change in reception or something like that. Will observe further.

ASWSTN official OTA update to V10e

Yes finally got OTA updated for ASWSTN to V10e (V10e-EUR-XX). I was rooted using IORoot, took update without any issues,

Updated:

1. Apps

Still Rooted :)

But, all my widgets are gone, had to re-add them to my launcher screens. Also an app that I had sideloaded is completely gone, and have to re-install it.... Oh well :) I hope nothing else is broken :)
[G3 General] Joao Oliveira:
Ok I'm starting to go nuts here.

I've spent the last 5 hours trying to install this damm update. I've unrooted with supersu, I've factory wiped the devices (press and hold power+volume down), I've tried the LG Pc suite which basically failed saying i have the latest version, ano nothing lets me install the update. Everytime I try i get the message that the device might be rooted.

The only thing i did was i uninstalled some lg and google apps with with titanium back before. nothing else.

Any idea how to solve this ? here are my model details

I've rooted with ioroot and i've tried to run root explorer after all this and the devices apears still be rooted (i still can access system etc..). Aflter all the steps i mentioned before.

Thanks!!
[G3 General] jodvova:
You're cool, but I came back home from vacations and LG PC suite crap upgraded my phone without a need to restore it.

This is good.

---------- Post added at 10:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:30 PM ----------

So, just my experience:

I have D855, rooted with towelroot and changed dpi to 530.

I received OTA but the phone said to go **** myself.

I connected it to a PC and LG PC suite installed an upgrade without a word.

I didn't have to restore the phone or anything.
[G3 General] ant78:
Did you download the ota via your phone or is there a file on here to flash for the update? I still haven't had a ota notification yet
[G3 General] suljo94:
dowwnload the .kdz file by (see reply under this one) and flash it with lg flashtool 2014 (use google)

csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=

put your Imei in after the = and see if there is an update for you

I've tried a few other firmwares but none makes LTE work and they are all full of bloatware. HELP! :P ;):eek:
[G3 General] Heppieboeddah:
Couldt you tell me which weather widget that is...:fingers-crossed:
[G3 General] phillevy:
I am rooted an on UK O2 - still no update offered - says I'm on latest version - anyone else in this position?
[G3 General] p70shooter:
It will be there dont worry :)
[G3 General] jodvova:
LG PC Suite did download and update it automatically.

The phone offered OTA, but it didn't work as I was rooted and changed DPI.
[G3 General] jhericurls:

[G3 General] inzimam:
Can someone confirm if Three UK d855 has an update? I'm not seeing one
[G3 General] bobsie41:
No, not yet. :(
[G3 General] DeathRoll666:
Nothing here as well - Three UK. Hopefully it will arrive soon..
[G3 General] Lennyuk:
I don't believe Three will get it until sometime in August, its currently in internal testing.

And that is assuming that they don't find anything wrong that needs fixing (which apparently happened with the original rom)
[G3 General] ch3:
Just updated to V10E EUR in Baltics.

In changelog i have 3 numbers.. not 1 like most of people O_o

Changelog says:

1. Optimized battery life

2. Optimized energy usage

3. Camera

P.S.

My phone was rooted before update. Updated without any problems - AND root stayed after update! O_o
[G3 General] daleski75:
Are 3 normally this slow when it comes to firmware updates?
[G3 General] Lennyuk:
Slow? This is not slow for any carrier!

The only carrier that has released 10E update so far is Vodafone and I am fairly sure it is because they did no testing!

Three could well be the first carrier to get the firmware update out, I would rather they take a bit longer to get it out to make sure it works well than rush it out and find out something like 4G doesn't work!
[G3 General] kilian7th:
How have You done it ? My phone doesn't want to update with a message that my phone is rooted so it has failed to update
[G3 General] daleski75:
Maybe it just feels slow judging by how many are getting the OTA update on this forum.
[G3 General] inzimam:
Anyone got the vodafone UK kdz link then?
[G3 General] Lennyuk:
Most people on here seem to be on unbranded firmware thats why. If they can get the update out before the end of August then that is quite quick for a carrier update.
[G3 General] daleski75:
Cool was it yourself who mentioned there is maybe a big update in August as well?
[G3 General] Lennyuk:
It was, that is what I have been told, but what I don't know is if that big update referred to Three's update or whether that was a LG update (in which case the three update will be out some time after).

Only time will tell.
[G3 General] daleski75:
Hopefully it will involve the words sharpening and removal ;)
[G3 General] suljo94:
the bloatwere is stored in data/ and the lte can be fixed by removing LTE config from /System/app or Priv-app not sure
[G3 General] jutley:
Updated my Simfree uk d855 to 10E now will let you guys know on any improvements etc.
[G3 General] Mistwalker:
I'm on a unbranded 32Gb G3. And I also got 3 updates.

1. Optimized battery life

2. Optimized energy usage

3. Camera

Just like the russian one ;) But I'm from Sweden. I Was hoping I was going to find anything about the camera update, but almost nobody else seems to have received that update :(

Kernel version: 3.4.0

Build number: KVT49L.A1404795316

Software version: V10e-EUR-XX
[G3 General] ant78:
Is it possible to de-brand a three phone and then flash the updates?
[G3 General] mosec:
I feel like the whole world got this update except me :(
[G3 General] superss94:
Just updated France version, keeping root :)
[G3 General] suljo94:
I didn't recieve it either instead I just flashed the german 3/32 V10E version and it is waaaaaaay beter then the V10A or the V10G versions, my advice just flash(first backup data to sdcard using LG-backup)
[G3 General] inzimam:
What's better?
[G3 General] mosec:
Since you are probably nearby (I'm in Croatia) tell me if you have any problems with network and telephony since you flashed. Everything working ok? LTE sticks or reverts to 3G? Also did you root it afterwards and how? Thanks
[G3 General] suljo94:
I acctually live in belgium but my parents came from bosnia, you know the waar and stuff.

In belgium I have 4G always not LTE(stupid european stadards), but there is a fix for the LTE problem just delete the LTE config files from System/app and reboot now you have LTE again. also in the V10F version the LTE bug(let's call it that) is supposedly fixed by lg, they proved that they listen to there costumers(total jab at sammy)
[G3 General] inzimam:
Lte is the same as 4g I thought
[G3 General] suljo94:
sometimes 3g networks get supercharged and they call it 4g while 4g Lte is true 4G for more info check the following aricle about us carriers

"AT&T has perhaps the most confusing definition of the bunch. While T-Mobile slapped a 4G sticker on its supercharged 3G network and Verizon erected a brand-new network of 4G towers, AT&T did both."
[G3 General] koppee1:
i just finished upgrading to 10e using pc suite. no need to unistall root. however, towelroot does not work anymore afterwards...how do i root this again?
[G3 General] Joao Oliveira:
purpledrake :)
[G3 General] daleski75:
Looks like there is 10f for the UK now if your suffix is A6OU (O2) which came out yesterday.
[G3 General] phillevy:
Well I'm still waiting for my update - I'm assuming it's because I'm locked to O2 but as I'm rooted I can't be sure that isn't the reason, although most have been at least offered the update when rooted. My wife's unbranded/unrooted D855 got the update a few days ago.
[G3 General] daleski75:
Try putting in your IMEI at the end of this web address (replace the ***) and it should let you download 10f directly from LG's website

http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=***************
[G3 General] koppee1:
THANKS!! rooted again...whew. and as easy as towel root...
[G3 General] phillevy:
Thanks - just tried this and it links to 10A so I guess I have to keep waiting :( That's what comes of getting a network locked phone, however the deal was too good to turn down.
[G3 General] koppee1:
first day after update...and reroot.

absolutely no difference.

LOL

although...unless it's my imagination...it seems to warm up a bit more than before.
[G3 General] daleski75:
Same for me on 3uk the latest firmware is 10a so I flash the indian 10f and so far so good.

---------- Post added at 12:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:02 PM ----------

Could you do us a favour and post the url which says the kdz file? When it changes to 10f means us lot from the UK can download it as well.
[G3 General] elmalote:
Is it me or did LG adjust the color calibration of the screen? The colors seem more cold now. The darker colors are slightly faded.

Purpledrake isn't working for me. When I click on "purpledrake_windows.bat", it says it can't find the mintty.exe file View attachment 2872334

I have an European unlocked LG G3 that I stupidy upgraded to V10E, took the root off to do so & now Towelroot just crashes & I cant seem to get any other root progs to root.

Any advice/help would be appreciated. Tks
[G3 General] Joao Oliveira:
:( I wish i could help you more but I have no clue why you're getting that error. Did you download purplefrake from here? http://downloads.codefi.re/thecubed/lg_g3/purpledrake/PurpleDrake-Lite_R03.tar.gz ? Have you checked if that file is not missing

Try downloading again and extract with WINRAR that's what I did.

all the best.

J.
[G3 General] dimkouto:
color calibration

Has anyone noticed the color calibration?? They made the colors cold. What happened??
[G3 General] rockluvva:
[/COLOR]

Thanks for your reply. Had to take your link out because this wouldn't let me post with it in. Wish they'd take this 5 min thing off too, really inconvenient!

Yup, got PD from that link. WinRAR won't open it, which is why I used WinZip. WINRAR says the archive is either in unknown format or damaged (it is a GZ file). I am running Windows 8 (which I despise), so I don't know if that isn't helping.

I'm normally quite "up" on this kind of stuff, so I'm assuming it's not me being (completely) thick, of course but nobody's perfect, least of all me!! :silly:

I have no other way of extracting this file that I know of. Mintty.exe is there, as are the other files it says aren't. :rolleyes:
[G3 General] radeonxt:
dunno if this is new in 10e cos i haven't noticed this in 10a and 10c.

there is now weather in quick circle clock choices.
[G3 General] keithleyson:
I think the biggest change in 10E is the security update blocking towelroot.
[G3 General] Joao Oliveira:
That is so weird I've used winrar without any problems. I've sent you a PM ;)
[G3 General] lossah:
Try move the folder to another harddrive/partition. The zip that it. And or the folder.
[G3 General] rockluvva:
Tried running it from my external (only other HD I have). Same message. Really don't understand it. The whole package is there. It's gotta be something to do with Windows 8 because it says Windows can't find the file & I'm looking at it. Sigh!
[G3 General] Heppieboeddah:
Thats the one..:svetius:
[G3 General] misiokicio:
updated successfully my d855 from 10a to 10e using lg pc suite, then re-rooted using purpledrake, the only hassle is... removing this bloatware again!
[G3 General] rockluvva:
Switching off laptop & leaving it alone for a while seems to have cleared something, because I have managed to do the same. Even though my rootchecker app says I'm not rooted, my bloatware killer app has been working quite happily removing all the unnecessaries.

Got there eventually

THANK YOU PURPLEDRAKE!! And Joao Oliveira!!

[G3 General] phillevy:
I finally got offered 10f ota but says can't download due to server problems try later ?
[G3 General] crni6:
Where you are from and what model you have?
[G3 General] phillevy:
UK D855 16gb on O2
[G3 General] daleski75:
Could you post the url for downloading the full kdz?
[G3 General] crni6:
I ask because my last update was 10e and appereantly you have f version couse you on O2.
[G3 General] phillevy:
I cant seem to generate a link atm - server isn't responding.

Meanwhile the OTA downloaded and installed on my phone - and it hasn't broken root:laugh::laugh:
[G3 General] koppee1:
Does anyone notice any difference after upgrading to 10e? I feel battery life is slightly worse. And it heats up more. But not over heating...I never get that warning..only once when phone was New...weird.
[G3 General] lossah:
Yepp. Worse battery life here too.

Never had a problem with heat tho (except irl atm. :o). Its understandable if the battery is hot tho. :D around 31c here. Irl that is.
[G3 General] bobbarker2:
Do any US variants have 10e yet?
[G3 General] gandalf027:
Got the upgrade to 10e and indeed battery life seems way worse.
[G3 General] phillevy:
It's early days, but 10f seems to have inferior battery life as well :(
[G3 General] daleski75:
Is there that much of a difference? I am finding 10f much better on battery than 10a.
[G3 General] EVOme:
My Verizon doesn't
[G3 General] phillevy:
Hopefully you are right - it was just that my battery seemed to go down quicker today than I recall with 10a - I will need more time to be sure.
[G3 General] mkexx:
Can anyone confirm, I think when I was on V10a, that contrast on 100% was much brighter then on V10e when I set contrast to 100% ?
[G3 General] gandalf027:
Took the G3 at 8:30am from the charger, it's now 5:20pm and it has 53% and 1:21 SOT.

No games, no 4G, just wifi and youtube.

Getting back to the A version, see if i'm right.
[G3 General] Faith_G3:
I woke up this morning to a message saying an update was available and that it would affect:

1. Optimized battery life

2. Optimized energy usage

3. Camera

But when i tried to download it just came up with a server error, since i have tried to update it says i have the latest OS.

Im on O2, 16gb version.
[G3 General] daleski75:
Looks like it's affecting quite a few people with O2 branded phones. :(
[G3 General] phillevy:
I got this update yesterday - Had the server error message but I just kept re-trying and eventually the update downloaded.
[G3 General] xhitm3n:
I have D855 FREE and have V10a-EURxx and i cant see any updates? im rooted aswell, only APPS updates...

whats wrong?
[G3 General] Faith_G3:
I have just tried again and it has finally popped up saying there is an update:

V10f-JUL-09-2014 (61.19mb)

1. Optimized battery life

2. Optimized energy usage

3. Camera
[G3 General] bedberkut:
I get much better battery life since the OTA. But i have changed over to ART the same time so it may be that.

That's my battery stats after around 4 and a half hours of redditing and watching youtube over wlan, auto brightness at 60%
[G3 General] Faith_G3:
What is ART and what differences to the phone does it make?
[G3 General] bedberkut:
What is ART?

What is ART?
[G3 General] codified:
I tried doing an OTA update on the phone and using LG PC Suite but it failed each time.When I restarted this phone I got this under Software Update - it thought I was still in the middle of doing an update, but when I clicked ""continue software update" I just got a toast message saying "Sending software update results to server" and nothing else happened.

I used this LG Flashtool 2014 and it worked first time - I'm now on 10G :cowboy:

However, when I go to Software Update on my phone it still thinks I am in the middle of doing an update - I can't check for new software. When I click "Continue Update" I get the same message as above. Is there any way to clear the cache/data of the software update app so that I can start over again? The usual ways don't work - no way to clear the data for the app.
[G3 General] Klyupp:
Is it possible to downgrade back to 10a? My battery life is really worse after updating to 10e..
[G3 General] jhericurls:
Yes just download the old 10a kdz file and flash it. But personally that would be too much work for me... Unless the battery is significantly worst. At the current rate of updates, there will be another in 2 weeks time.
[G3 General] craigven:
I see some people able to install 10f ota even while rooted but I can't seem to do it. Keeps prompting me that my g3 is rooted.

Amy workaround? It's just too tedious to unroot the phone, find a windows machines (I'm on mac), flash it, then reroot it and finally spend 2-4 hours redoing my apps, themes and widgets.

Any help?
[G3 General] lossah:
Your phone will be alot faster. Thats the difference. :p

More ART for the people!
[G3 General] tpanneer:
Going to check it out!!:):)
[G3 General] two_handed:
wondering about that one too...
[G3 General] jhericurls:
I couldn't get the OTA to work either. I'm also on a Mac so have to install Windows on boot camp so I could install the update using LG PC suite. It kept all my apps and data, just had to use PurpleDrake to root.
[G3 General] two_handed:
What to you mean with "purpledrake to root"? Did you unroot before updating with lg suite or did you lose root after flash and had to root afterwards?
[G3 General] lak100:
how can i flash kdz files?
[G3 General] jhericurls:
You don't need to do anything before updating. The PC suite doesn't check for root. You lose root after flashing so need to re-root.
[G3 General] craigven:
Ah damn now I have to install winblows :(
[G3 General] two_handed:

[G3 General] K_Hismoom:

I just got the OTA update from 10a to 10f (KVT49L.A1404904136) and did not lose root.
[G3 General] droidhd:

No. . unless you wanna break your phone so badly.

Lg keeps telling that the Canadian providers need to approve the updates they have.

So it could be another month before we see anything.

difference between branded and unbranded

hi guys, i would just like to ask if what is the difference between the branded and unbranded LG G3 D855?

I've read on a forum that there are two kinds of D855. Branded and Unbranded. So can anyone help me to answer my question?

This is what I've read in the forum:

"LG G3 D855 has been hit with its first OTA update after the launch globally. LG G3 users in Asia (like in Philippines), UK, Europe are getting the V10e update as OTA in two variants of 43.74 MB which brings power optimizations enhancement and 175.92 MB OTA update which brings enhancement in apps depending upon their location.

Unbranded LG G3 D855 users got 43.74 MB V10e OTA update.

Branded LG G3 D855 users got 175.92 MB V10e OTA update."

Thank you in Advance!!
[G3 General] p70shooter:
Branded are the phones with carrier bloat on and possibly locked to a carrier. Unbranded are ones that are not :)
