I made this with the intention to keep one update thread for our beloved v30's.

Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile and unlocked Variants have already received Oreo.

T-Mobile has halted the Oreo update as mentioned on the last reply to this post. The update has been posted on the lg-firmware site and some users have posted links. The links should be posted once I find them.

If any issue arises please feel free to drop a reply and also take note of differences going forward.

Also if your specific variant has not received any updates yet I'll drop a link to redirect you to the crossflashing thread below.

https://xdaforums.com/lg-v30/how-to/using-lgup-crossflashing-t3780969

Please be aware of the possibility of bricking your phone if you flash the incorrect firmware. I take no responsibility on damage done. Crossflashing is on your own risk so do not point fingers if you destroy your phone. We are here for support so ask questions before attempting for reassurance.

Has LG always sucked [MENTION=8805648]$![/MENTION] when it comes to after sales support? Its bad enough discovering the lockdown on the Canadian version for modding after buying. But seriously, the worst of 16 cell companies for OS update?

This March 2018 article indicates LG is the one of 2 companies out of 16 that had not pushed an Oreo update out to its flagships. And the other company had released it as an open beta if you want to go with it. I suppose you could argue that the article doesn't account for some versions getting it a few weeks ago, but that doean't really change the overall conclusion. And it looks like Canadians are 3 weeks away. Come on LG.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] bilbo60:
I always thought the carriers controlled when the updates rolled out.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Carriers do for carrier-branded models -- but the OEM (LG in this case) has to give them the update first. Verizon was always the worst, they would roll out their updates long after AT&T, T-mobile, etc. Because they didn't care -- they wanted to you to buy a new phone, not get updated to new OS on your current phone.

One example: With the Motorola Quarks (Droid Turbo, Moto Turbo, Moto Maxx), Verizon was always the last. Most of the Quarks got Marshmallow in July 2016, but Verizon Droid Turbo got it December 2016. Yes, same exact version of Marshmallow, 6.0.1. Motorola gave all the carriers the update, and even released it directly to the "Motorola factory" models (what LG calls "open market" models) -- but Verizon sat on it for 5-6 months.

And then when Verizon DID finally roll out Marshmallow, it bricked Droid Turbo phones that were encrypted, because Verizon didn't even bother to really test the update. They just put the update in a drawer for several months, while they tried to persuade users to buy NEW phones. So, then Verizon had to issue an update to the update so it wouldn't brick encrypted phones. It's not like they didn't have enough time to TEST the Marshmallow update, right? WHAT were they doing from July to December? And Motorola gave them the update BEFORE July. July was when it started rolling out from other carriers and Motorola around the world.

So, very surprising that Verizon is the first of the North America carriers to roll out the LG V30 Oreo update.

Whereas for the open market versions, LG fully controls when the the update is released -- not any carrier. LG could release it same time they gave the South Korean models. If Verizon V30 has Oreo, why doesn't the open market US998? :confused: LG controls that.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Wolfsbane58:
It is part of the reason why LG struggles to compete with other mobile devices in the market. Product support is little more than an afterthought. For all it’s faults, if Apple needs to put out a software to support its phones, they don’t just sit around to think about it. They do it... and then they’ll tell everyone and their granny that they did it so they can market that support as a critical service.

Software is critical in any piece of electronics.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mejilan:
Yeah, it's bizarre and frustrating that Verizon, of all carriers, has released the update, and us open market folks are sitting out in the cold, without even an expected time of arrival.

And I just read that a Korean V30+ has gotten a hefty (800 or so MB) ThinQ update, too.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] djpeesh:
Met someone from LG today. Apparently the H 930 DS (India model at least) won't be getting oreo until the second half of the year. The G6 may get it around the same time.

The person said that right now the plans are to get the V30S on sale (by May-June) and then roll out the update as people might not buy the V30S if the V30 has the same feature set at a lower price.

Same person said that in recent years, LG has pruned their software developers and they don't have the wherewithal to do a full fledged rollout of new Android roms unlike Samsung or Sony.

Take this with a massive grain of salt but you've been warned in case any of this is true
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Wolfsbane58:
Would make sense with the AI software which is LG's product, but not Oreo which is a Google/Droid operating system. LG would be cutting their own throat if they did this as customers would be cutting bait and leaving for Samsung in droves, and the V30S wouldn't stop that. Besides, all they have to do is to sell the V30S going forward, which is their original plan. They don't have to alienate the customers that purchased their product since October until now.

I believe you, totally.

An FYI yoi couldn't directly flash TWRP with any LG phone (in fastboot) after Marshmallow. You always had to, fastboot boot twrp.img then flash the image from temporary TWRP.

According to http://devtester.ro/projects/lg-firmwares/ and [MENTION=2684188]autoprime[/MENTION] the US998 should start getting the Oreo update today.

Should work i suppose.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] hikku13:
Just checked on https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h930ds-firmwares/#firmwaresList

CIS, Kazakhstan got Oreo update. Hopefully, this May all regions will get Oreo update (waiting for Indonesia though). Just need to be patient. We bought this phone with "patient" included. Just like my G4. I dont complain it now (even it was bootlooped, it has burn in screen, stucked in LL because I need root). I really like my G4 for the camera (esp the front which better than V30) and still using it everyday along with my V30+.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
I will post it when it's released. However, LG Bridge just said my US998 V30+ is "up to date" on Nougat, as is my US998 V30.

Yes, the US998 V30+ KDZ will work on all US998 phones, just like the Nougat KDZs (10c and 10D) I posted work for all US998 phones -- both V30/V30+ and no matter whether "open market" or U.S. Cellular.

My only issue so far is that the Material Notification Shade reskinning app I've been using doesn't really work with Oreo and that despite having it set correctly, I can no longer hide the Nav Bar when my Gboard keyboard is up. Everything else is going great, though.

I really loved having a full black notification drawer...

Maybe give substratum a shot with the Andromeda desktop client. Easy theming without root on Oreo. It's 3.99 I believe. Well worth it if root isn't available to you.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mejilan:
Root will be available whenever LG adds our open market models to their official bootloader unlock services. Not sure what's taking so long.

I used to love Substratum on my 2015 Moto X Pure. Flux (Black) was my jam. I'm a little wary of using a tethered Substratum solution though.

I still have nightmares of my times running tethered or semi-tethered jailbreaks during my iPhone 4 and iPhone 4s days.

Thank you for the suggestion, though.

It'll happen when it happens. I'm actually surprisingly content with the phone as-is. The LG skin for Nougat and now Oreo isn't nearly as hideous as the LG G4's skin was.

I'd like to return to an untethered substratum setup with my beloved Flux theme, but I honestly don't know how "skinnable" this OS is, and I don't think my preferred custom ROM, Dark Unicorns, is available on (or ever coming to) this phone, so I'm no particular rush. This is the first time I've owned an iPhone or Android phone and haven't felt an urgent need to dump stock.

Still, I'd like to at least have the option sooner rather than later.

Damn it, it was at&t Oreo...why is it not available?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Well, ask AT&T. They require AT&T network connection for the OTA, and mysteriously the KDZ is not available. Or at least not available where we've been able to find.

So some people have "converted" their AT&T H932 to US998, AS998 or even Canadian H931. See the Frankenstein phone thread. They can then flash available KDZ.

I received this today T-Mobil

Happy Saturday, all.

*

First, let me say that I'm really glad to read that for the majority here who have completed the move to Oreo, the issues you experienced post-update were short-lived and resolved with some good old fashioned device maintenance and troubleshooting. I'm glad you were all experienced in working with your equipment! That's fantastic!

Unfortunately, the update didn't go as smoothly for every customer. Our device team started receiving reports from Care and Tech of customers reaching out experiencing issues, which is why we were checking in here yesterday; to see if there were similar problems happening for our Community members. While it looks like for the most part, our folks are in the clear, the reports were significant enough to inspire the software test team to pause the update temporarily while they investigate more to determine whether the update is truly ready to roll.

*

As those of you who are Community regulars will have noticed, a similar issue did just occur with the Note 8 Android Oreo update. This is not typical and we don't anticipate repeat issues of this nature; and we are very sorry for any inconvenience this causes -- either for customers waiting for the update, or for customers who had difficulty with their devices after updating. The*Software updates: LG V30/V30+*page has been updated to call out the temporary pause while we assess and determine next steps (it does look like a typo in the page; the update was paused*today, May 12th, not May 2nd).

*

We wanted to let you know as soon as this was confirmed -- sorry for the interruption of your regular Saturday programming! Hopefully this pause is not long. We'll update here with any information we can share as we receive it.

Yep. I do have the Oreo ROM flashed on my phone but I have tons of force closes and ANR screens pop up.

Meanwhile my originally India (but UK rom flashed S7 edge) is on its second Oreo update and I also have voWIFI and VoLTE which will probably never turn up on the V30.

Another peculiar problem I seem to have in a few places is no data connectivity despite my phone showing me full 4G+ signal. Don't seem to know what's wrong.

The S7 edge is now my daily driver and the V30+ is my second phone.

Don't get me wrong. I love the V30. I'm just bemused by the fact that a two year old phone is getting an OTA update to Oreo while a brand new flagship struggles.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Sure. I'm not going to defend LG on their ice glacier pace at releasing phones they've announced nor their sloth-like update releases.

When you switched over, did you choose "upgrade" or refurbish"?

Upgrade saves all your data and apps (and that's what I did to upgrade to Oreo on my US998 V30/V30+).

Refurbish starts off with clean slate.

At this point in time, rather than re-flash with refurbish option, try Master Reset (if you haven't already), set your phone upgain and see if that takes care of the force closes.

Master Reset -- using buttons:

1. Press and hold the Power and Volume down buttons.

2. When the LG logo appears and quickly release the Power button only and press Power button again but keep pressing the Volume down button until you see the screen to select Yes to erase and reset everything.

As I'm beggining to think that updates will come within these next couple of months since lg is part of googles enterprise suite. In short it means that the lg v30 and the g6 will get updated to 8.1 sooner or later.
