[LG V20 Questions & Answers] krumbs:
Been almost three months since the last update! I also have a Samsung S7 Edge (mainly for VR), and it has been getting a steady stream of updates.

This is my first LG phone (got swayed by the DAC) and it is disappointing to see the lack of support, that too for a flagship phone.

Maybe the dev team is small and currently everyone is busy with the G6. Hoping some of that stuff gets ported over to the V20. Also hoping I can eventually root the phone...

Btw, how long does LG support its flagship phones? Is it reasonable to expect two years of updates for the V20?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] RdT21:
My previous phone, P9 Plus already have the Feb. 1, 201 sec patch. Come on LG, unlock H990DS and update V20 to 7.1 already!!!! Or at least the latest security patch!!!!

---------- Post added at 12:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:59 AM ----------

My Lg G2 had at least 4 years of support before it went capput. That is good of LG at east, just slow. :)
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Team DevDigitel:
The LG G6 came pre-loaded with Feb Sec Patch, and still on 7.0

keep that in mind, we wont ever get 7.1 , if anything it will go to 8.0 next

Feb Sec Patch For Ls997 is out there but it seems like it got pulled, either to wait for G6 to launch or a issue with the code.

Either way, id be safe to assume there wont be 7.1 for us, but a jump from 7 to 8.

LG historically has skipped the .1 updates and just gone to the full fledged updates.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] itsraining2008:
No update since 2016 December. Hope they will release some update in april.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] buongu:
yeah we can start adding march and april to the title... :(
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] TomHUN:
Today I got the update (march).

It is V10e-SEA-xxx.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] buongu:
yep, looks like the SEA version is always ahead with updates...

wondering if switching from TWN to SEA would be a good solution...
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Fuzi0719:
LG seems to put the V-series on the slow lane. V10 was very slow to get any kind of update. It is rumored they weren't even going to update the V10 to Nougat, leaving it as it is, but T-Mobile pressured them to update it to Nougat. I'm hoping they'll not let the V20 languish, but they're throwing everything at the G6, now, and letting the V20 become the "discount" phone.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Laoma40:
No update yet for me. My phone is at V10d-AUS-xx.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] RdT21:
lgh990ds here with V10e-ESA-XX. Still no march sec update. The SEA ones are lucky then.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] spiderx_mm:
Yes. I think so. The v10e-SEA-XX just does not bring the March Security Patch, it also brings other improvements. I've noticed that once I've updated the v10e, my phone battery life double or triple up in stand-by mode. Previously, the stand-by consumption (during night) is about 2% per hour, after v10e update, it increases to 2% per 3 hours.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] TomHUN:
Anybody has an issue with bluetooth pairing after the update? I can't pairing my phone with my soundbar. When I tried appeared a "wrong PIN code" message but it didn't ask any code....

In the past it worked without any problem (asked a 4 digits code....) Any idea?

It is April 18, and still no update for the V20! Not even security patches.

Is there an ODIN equivalent for LG, that I can use to flash the new SEA firmware? Also, is there a SamFirm equivalent that will check for and download the latest firmware off LG servers?

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] buongu:
it's pretty easy :)

install 'LG Bridge' to make sure you have all your LG usb drivers installed, then download and install 'LG UP', should be easy to find on this forum; then download the latest Singapore firmware from https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h990ds-firmwares/ and install it with 'LG UP', choose 'update' option. 5 minutes and you're all set :)

Assalam o alaikum

My device is v20 us996 up unlocked

I've installed custom ROM which uses the Ported Ux6.0 from G6 and thankfully my security patch is of May 2017 ;)
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] maxi65:
I think so but the rumors says 8.0 will be rolling out in the mid of next year
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Redline:
Nah. The 4th dev preview just got released, which means they've finalised features, the API level and are just doing bug fixes. It's rumoured the V30 will be the first to launch with 8.0 and with the current dev timeline for it, it's inline.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] maxi65:
So you mean 8.0 will be soon out for V20?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Redline:
Factory images for Google devices such as the Nexus line have just been released for 8.0. OEMs like LG/Samsung/Sony/Etc. have to take these factory images, apply their own Skins/UIs/Tweaks/Etc. to them and then push them out to their respective devices. Samsung have Touchwiz, LG have their own UX line, you get the idea. It could be anywhere from a month or so to a year upwards. Or, we might not get it at all. Then we rely on custom developer support for them to port it to our devices.
[Sony Xperia L] The Sinbad:
Well , Hi everyone

I will try to be detailed as possible

First of all I used this Guide to reparation my Xperia L 2105 and it worked perfectly .

I stayed on a custom rom for a month until I decided to flash the Stock rom again (silly me)

While flashing and just before it finishes flashing I encountered an error (but I don't remember it)

tried to switch on the phone but there was nothing , just a black screen and when I tried to charge it there was a red led light but no charging .

So I entered the fastboot mode and flashed a kernal with CWM , the device charged normally while the device is turned off and the buttery indicator appeared on the screen. and when switching on normally it stuck at SONY logo

After charging , I entered the CWM recovery and tried to flash a custom rom from SD card but a list of errors appeared.here it is

E:can't mount / cache / recovery / command

E:can't mount / cache / recovery / log

E:can't open / cache / recovery / log

E:can't mount / cache / recovery / last_log

E:can't open / cache / recovery / last_log

E:can't mount /external_sd/

and when flashing the stock rom again using flashtool that's what appears

- INFO - Ending flash session

- ERROR - Error in processHeader : 22 : The device does not recognize the command.

- ERROR - Error flashing. Aborted

- INFO - Device disconnected

----so , anyone can help ? should I try partitioning again or what? please help me
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karthik9:
Hi all,

I have a Nexus 6 phone with disk encryption enabled. I am trying to recover my userdata, could someone help me with this?

Following is what I did.

Backed up encrypted user data:

$sudo adb shell dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata myencrypted_userdata

while flashing the new firmware images I accidentally flashed the userdata image that came with factory images too.

I remember the the password I used to encrypt the disk. So I thought I can flash the myencrypted_userdata back, in order to recover the my old data.

I used following command to do that:

$ sudo fastboot flash userdata+userdata1 myencrypted_userdata

Unfortunately, that didn't work :( so how do I flash my backed up "myencrypted_userdata" to my device? and recover it using the the password I know?

Thank you so much for your time

Post note:

Following is the error I am getting:

$ sudo fastboot flash userdata+userdata1 myencrypted_userdata
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
Invalid sparse file format at header magi
fastboot: ../libsparse/sparse.c:143: write_all_blocks: Assertion `pad >= 0' failed.

and size of backed up "myencrypted_userdata" is huge :

$ ls -alh myencrypted_userdata
-rw-rw-r-- 1 kar kar 56G mrt 3 13:03
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karthik9:
Okay, I tried to use the same firmware image version I had, just to recover the data. That is also not working.

I followed the same steps I mentioned earlier:

$sudo fastboot flash userdata+userdata1 myencrypted_userdata
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
Invalid sparse file format at header magi
fastboot: ../libsparse/sparse.c:143: write_all_blocks: Assertion `pad >= 0' failed.

Is there there any other way to recover the data? (I remember the password though)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NLBeev:
Are you sure the data partition is wiped/formatted before restoring your data?

(Assumed, but did not see that in the steps you wrote.)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karthik9:
Thank you for you response.

So I did wipe out the old userdata with new firmware image (userdata.img) using following command .

$sudo fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

Then now I am trying to restore my old userdata partition using following command:

$sudo fastboot flash userdata+userdata1 myencrypted_userdata

No I didn't do anything else in between. Am I missing something in between? if so, how do I format the data partition? Also, the encrypted image size is huge "56G". Is that a problem?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NLBeev:
Don't know about the size, try it. But you have to fastboot erase the data partition first.

Try fastboot erase userdata and fastboot erase cache before restoring.

EDIT the format command is

Fastboot format <partition>
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karthik9:
Still getting same error:

kar@ubuntu:~ $ sudo fastboot erase userdata [134]

have you faced the same?
[Honor 5C Guides, News, & Discussion] Shubho20:
No bro, didn't face any of these. It booted up clean. But I do have a locked bootloader if that matters.
[Honor 5C Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Mine is locked as well. Keyboard was not there and thought of factory reset, since then this error as system verification failed...

As factory reset was done so not able to move forward with google setup as no keyboard. Bavk to b151. Will try again today

[Honor 5C Guides, News, & Discussion] Shubho20:
It's a stock rom eveything should be fine. Don't know y errors r occuring in ur case, since i flashed it with same process. Ok, what was the update size showing to u? 2.07GB?
[Honor 5C Guides, News, & Discussion] Shubho20:
And btw i did a factory reset too after update. And everything is fine.
[Honor 5C Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Firmware finder shows 2.07 GB but when sent to updater, size is 1.25 gb. This is the same as the link you given for zip file. And i knew that the one in updater and zip are same. So i downloaded 1% in updater and then paused it and copied the downloaded zip to hwouc-one nuneric folder-update.zip.

Then resumed download in updater and immediately completed to 100%.

Verified and rebooted.

And these issues on boot.

Have used this method many times earlier on 5X without issues. I will try to update via updater this time to see the difference.

What was your size in updater, 2.07 or 1.25?

In firmware finder it is 2.07 and in updater 1.25? Or else
[Honor 5C Guides, News, & Discussion] Shubho20:
In firmware updater it is 1.25GB and in updater it's 2.07GB(actual size). I think that is the only reason why it gives u errors like those. Now try downloading the whole update in updater, and i think that won't give u those errors. :svetius:
[Honor 5C Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
89% downloaded. Lets see how it goes. Iin updater it was 1.26 gb. This is because, it is update.app in firmware finder(more size) and zip in updater (less size).

I am not getting any update on this phone and all i need to do is manual update every time.(all stock still some backend isseu)

Hope for the best.
[Honor 5C Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
bad luck. same thing. no updater, no keyboard.

[Honor 5C Guides, News, & Discussion] Shubho20:
Do one thing, using dload method update B140, then u will be getting B151 update available since u were on B151 before. Then by the method i mentioned update Emui 5. See if that helps.
[Honor 5C Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
All done no luck. I went to b151 last night and did fresh emui 5 but no luck :(

If i go back to b140, i wont be able to get b151 automatically. Will have to manually update. Did this in past
[Honor 5C Guides, News, & Discussion] Shubho20:
No, u will be getting B151 automatically, since ur IMEI no. is sent for B151 update to huawei. I didn't get B151 update before, i had to manually update it. But then when i reflashed B140 due to some reasons, B151 update automatically came.

In firmware finder app it's showing me the Nougat B301 update but the size is 808 MB. I'm on B160. Would I run into issues if I upgrade to B301? The change log says your device would upgrade from "B151" to "B301".
[Honor 5C Guides, News, & Discussion] Shubho20:
I don't think it will cause problem. But for precaution just roll back to B151 and flash the B301. And since dload method won't work for flashing B301, just send the update to updater from firmware updater app and download from there.
[Honor 5C Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
You need to change to system update and enable 1st three option in setting and then refresh the list again in firmware..you will get 2.07 gb
[Honor 5C Guides, News, & Discussion] Chromelon:
Yeah, that worked. I'm still wondering if I should just directly upgrade to B301 from B160. What do you recommend?
