[LG G5 Questions & Answers] xxmarkosxx:
You have to consider that LG is pushing updates little by little because their servers can't take the load of so many g5 variants updating simultaneously. Even inside of europe they have to break the updates into countries. I live in greece, most likely i'll get the h850 update later than you. Although they have changed my main board from service and I don't know in which country I truly belong.

Sooner nokia 3310 will get OREO update than LG H850

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] russy23:
chris hi, ive seen on the internet the lg g5 h850 oreo update is out, but not sure about the uk yet, some guy on reddit claims his downloaded it in the uk, which i dont think so, any update please

UK Support we have not had confirmation on the Oreo update for the UK at this point in time

UK Support we have not been advised of dates to be honest, Canada and Korea only got it a couple weeks ago and they are considered a larger market

chris ok no probs thanks

UK Support sorry about that

Well according to this https://www.mylgphones.com/lg-g5-an...ad-lg-g5-android-oreo-8-0-stock-firmware.html we should all get it very soon in October which for me at least means within the first week.

Just out of the curiosity what does the PhoneSetting and FOTA Upgrade options on LGUP do?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] russy23:
Q: Refurbish option in LGUP doesn't work, what now?

A: Boot into stock recovery after the flash finishes and perform a factory reset. This is the same outcome as if Refurbish was selected.

Yeah. I assumed as much. But for now I'll be using the upgraded install. I'll probably do a factory reset next weekend or so.

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] cpitru:
Hi everyone, I want to tell you my impressions after installing Oreo on my G5.

In general, a lot of softness

Automatic brightness now works perfect

The GPS signal connection is now much faster

I do not know if it's my perception but I notice more saturated colors on the screen

Unlocking by facial and voice recognition now works

In the absence of more testing time I hope the battery life improves or at least it stays at the Nougat level

Regards!

Guys, anybody tried to root Oreo with Magisk? Looks like it conflicts with (drumroll!) flashlight. I have tried multiple times with multiple Magisk versions but everytime leads to "Torch is unavailable [...]" message when toggling torch from quick settings and Camera app is missing flash icon. :confused:

No such issue with SuperSU 2.82 SR5 though.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] GrievousMcG:
According to the MyLGPhones website, the H860 version (V29a) of Oreo is still under testing which is good to know as it means our phone will get it eventually.

You would think that since the H850 version is already been rolled out there is hardly much difference between that and the H860, so we should be getting it very soon.

EDIT: for clarification when it's released, they'll change the version number to V30a.

Don't really care about those security updates, but what makes me convinced that the G5 will get Oreo is the lack of a security patch.. If it wasn't getting Oreo I think we would already have a new patch...

Love the G5 still, great phone, would like Oreo for it's emojis and battery life :)
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Bilal_y3k:
Well. I dont understand there way. They still haven't give Oreo to Lg G6 and V30. Frankly i dnt expect oreo near by. well As a part of two year update program they should release it. its my last Lg phone if i dnt get oreo. Signs are positive but no certain date. Should learn more from other manufacturers like Asus, Sony , HTC , Samsung. Andriod P is in development and we still focusing on OREO. :D
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] mistery88:
It is great to never have to connect your phone again to a USB cable, I just swap my empty battery for a full one, which is recharged on a stand alone battery charging unit.

Another happy G5 user here in Holland. As a matter of fact, I've recently purchased another second hand H850 as a backup phone to use the G5 for another few years.

Lets hope LG will keep its promise and keep the flagships updated for at least 2 years.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Diomorgan:
Actually the locking system of the battery is a bit poor, but I LOVE the battery, I have 6, genuine and not (and the not one are from amazone and are damn good too), since I hate Powerbank (by the way, did you notice the cool stand alone battery charge that can be used as power bank? ;)).

I was pretty afraid to update to 20s, but since I mess up with a system file making one of my two amazon wharehouse €180 and €200 but MINT G5, I had to and now the phone is rebirtch and the battery is a real pro too compared to Q, don't know why!

I'm very happy I didn't bought the S8 just becase it was actually very beautiful, but our G5 is still a top, never slow down, fingerprint perfect reader, magisk compatible.I said it before, I don't care so much about oreo if it won't make work the hardware better than now.Actually, I found the perfection, specially in the camera!
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] mistery88:
Yeps recent flagships are practically all pretty magnificent, beautiful and sexy.

However gone are the days that I always wanted the newest and willing to brake my bank for it. In other words i'm officially old lol

Lets not joke but the slight incremental improvements nowadays simply do not warrant it for me anymore to update my phone.

They have to come up with something really really useful and significant instead of the cosmetic bs nowdays.

And I agree that the modular release design sucks, they should have ditched the entire modular crap and just released a flagship with a removable battery....

Because swapping the battery in the presence of someone still yields grins on my face

its not that hard I suppose ;)

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] mistery88:
On the website they are referring to a LG G5, however if you click a page further it says "Android version 7.0/Software version H83020o"

It is likely that they forgot to add SE to all this.

Anyways it is a good sign that they are adding Oreo support for the SE, i cant fathom that they will do Oreo support for the SE model and skip the G5.... not possible afaik.
