[LG V30 Questions & Answers] rdeets:
So, I decided to try it. Downloaded LG G Bridge and LG drivers. I've tried five times now, tried three USB cables, and even rebooted my phone and computer, and I keep getting an error saying that it cannot check the internal storage on my phone. Anyone have that before?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] jsgraphicart:
Cannot check the storage? Is LG Bridge seeing your device? If not, try changing the usb connection to mtp or one of the other ones until it does.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] rdeets:
It sees it and registers it, says that there's an update available, preps the computer, gets to 45% on prepping the phone, and then the error pops up.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] jsgraphicart:
That's new to me. I've never experienced that. Someone else will have to jump in and help you. Sorry

Download the T-Mobile H932 KDZ file down in Development, then flash to your phone with LGUP.

T-MOBILE BH932 OREO KDZ download here:

If it's a KDZ, flash it with LGUP. Connect phone to your PC. Install LGUP.

See LGUP files attached to post #1 of this thread:

Read the instructions "Here's how to flash." You'll use the KDZ you just downloaded here.

Still missing an option to block heads-up/peeking/pop-up notifications. .

I'm pretty much done with LG at this point.

But I'm happy i finally got the PiP on YouTube I've been waiting for since the day this device was released. Haha.

However Oreo on V30 is good, it should've launched with 8.0 and been updated to 8.1 by now.

[MENTION=6287517]brossovitch[/MENTION]: And did you have a chance to check if it has full fastboot? It's s long shot, but one can always hope ?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] brossovitch:
I have not. I should've. But I didn't check personally. Maybe later tonight after I sleep. .

I don't think anything good will come. But we could hope. Someone in another thread said it doesn't..

Yet another reason I'm buying a new OnePlus this yesr.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] texasaggie1:
Hi, it's not an LG thing. It's android. And there are two things you can do to stop heads ups notifications.

1) Download this:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zacharee1.systemuituner&hl=en_US

You will have to run a few ADB commands on your computer.

Once its set up, you can disable heads up notifications system wide, and also tweak a ton of other cool things.

2) Also, if you didn't want to do that you can click and hold on the notifications that are causing the heads ups, select more settings, turn on "silent" and that will stop the heads ups from happening.

Hope this helps!
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] brossovitch:
Should not need to ADB an app to do it. And silent is not feasible.

And even when I disabled the pop ups in app notification settings it doesn't work.

The system tuner app makes my V30 glitch hard BTW

And Android has this simple option baked in. LG removed it.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] texasaggie1:
"SILENT" isn't really silent, it just means no heads up. This feature is built in to all android 8 devices

---------- Post added at 01:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 PM ----------

Just verified.... I installed the new oreo update and it does NOT include the fastboot "flash" command. It DOES include the "Flashall" command but it says ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT not set

:(

Other than that, I love this update
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Septembersrain:
Okay, I'm getting out my laptop. Let's see if I can do the thing.

Edit: I really hate having an old laptop.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] brossovitch:
When I select silent. There's zero notification whatsoever.

This Oreo ROM is a bit glitchy. Battery life isn't as good so far.

For fastboot can you boot something with it? Thered wouldn't be a flash option you'd need to boot something i believe just like older things. Booting TWRP would prove it. It will either boot it or fail..

In the meantime, Google's help forums are crap. I use Google Voice for everything and have for nearly 7 years or more.

The notification options for the app are amazing, however even though there are settings for texts, voicemail, etc... All the texts I get are labeled Uncategorized and that label has no options beside sound & no sound. With sound on, it sounds and shows a heads up (pop-up) notification. Sound off, absolutely nothing happens..

Other options for the other categories are are classified as :

Urgent (sound & pop up)

High (sound)

Low (no sound or visual interruption)

This definitely has nothing to do with LG as it's Google's app that isn't working properly.

As fas as hangouts, which I usually use for GVoice and hangouts, it has none of these options. Again Google's app Google's problem..

However I can't even get the options to work anyway.

May be an issue with LG UX or using 8.0 instead of 8.1?

Or maybe they rushed a messed up ROM. Lol rushed it...

PiP mode (most notably with YouTube) is sketchy. If you touch the screen a few times, or scroll through a menu for 10sec it will freeze YouTube causing it to stop and unload the PiP and the entire app.

I'll test more but so far thats where I am..

---------- Post added at 07:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:43 PM ----------

Also, this update is completely missing the Android Oreo notification panel organization. Yet another reason to ditch the OEM skinned devices.

Additionally, camera seems to be an overly "engineered." Piece of software wirh unnecessary additions.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] TheDannemand:
Thank you for checking. We never really expected it would have it, but sometimes good things do happen, so it was right for us to hope, briefly.

Thanks again!

Edit: As [MENTION=6287517]brossovitch[/MENTION] pointed out, trying "fastboot boot twrp.img" is the best test (and harmless too).
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] TheFuzz:
Simple update via LG bridge. Seems to be much faster after update. The camera ai is interesting not saying I like it but it certainly is interesting how it tries to identify objects on the fly. The shopping integration is a good idea, especially the QR code option.

Not sure what else there is yet. One thing I noticed that I don't like is ongoing notifications about pie and the battery meter I use that have permission to draw over other apps. That's gotta go!
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] cz9h3d:
Updated mine, no problem!

Visual Voicemail

So now that T-Mo has updated the LG V30 to Oreo, has anyone been able to use Visual Voicemail thru either the default Phone app, or another phone app such as Drupe? My only option for Visual Voicemail is to use T-Mobile's Visual Voicemail app. I'd much prefer to have it included in my phone app as is the case with iPhones.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] truckerdewd:
I have been able to use the built in Visusl Voicemail app. You just have to press the voicemail icon and it takes you to the built in Visual Voicrmail app. I prefer to use the T-Mobile one because of the Voicemail To Text feature included in our plan.

Anyone else having Bluetooth issues? Bluetooth won't stay on, makes my HWatch a useless lump on my wrist. And I haven't even been to the car yet where I'll be subjected to the Radio or whatever is on my SD.

The bluetooth indicator just flashes when it dies shortly after a reboot. I've cleared data and cache from both Bluetooth System Apps. Did an emergency reflash in case it was a bad flash itself, but the same problem persists.

Anyone have this issue or can think of a way to fix?

Thanks in advance
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] SHosp:
No problems with Bluetooth here. Worked in the car just like normal. Might try un-pairing and re-pairing your devices to see if that helps any.

That is a cool background on your dialer, what are you using to get that effect?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] fclifton:
Just installed Oreo last night and no issues so far. I do now have 2 ongoing Android System notifications that are new. One says "2 apps are using battery" and lists two apps. The other says "Swiftly Switch is displaying over other apps. If you don't want Swiftly Switch to use this feature, tap to open settings and turn it off." I explored settings but haven't found a way to turn those notifications off. Anyone know of a way?

An interesting thing is that if I go to Settings | General | Apps & notifications | Special access | Draw over other apps every app, not just Swiftly Switch, has Draw over other apps set to Yes - so why does the notification single out Swiftly Switch? (Swiftly Switch is a sidebar app much like the Floating Bar on steroids)

So glad I can use substratum again and change the navbar. Although they don't all work, play around long enough and you'll find some.

T Mobile rolling out OREO

I received the update on Wednesday afternoon. Before installing said update I backed-up everything I didn't want to lose. Good thing too because after installing the update I had to immediately do a factory reset. After the reset all is well and performing excellent, battery life has really improved. I'm getting 5 and a half to 6 hours screen on time with moderate to heavy use. I'm loving it right now, still runs smooth as butter with no lag at all. I'm still exploring the new camera features though. Will come back after I've gotten comfortable with the new features. I haven't gotten the PIP to work yet still playing around and learning. All in all I really like the update so far, too bad it took soooo long (T Mobile) made a great phone better ???
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] TheDannemand:
This may be a dumb question, but I am going to ask nevertheless: Is there any risk that updating to Oreo through LG Bridge or LG UP will wipe SIM Unlock of the phone?

My wife and I have T-Mobile H932 that were both SIM unlocked after 2 months using TMO's Device Unlock app, at which point we switched to RedPocket (AT&T MVNO). My wife since switched to MintSIM on TMO network, but she is still not a TMO subscriber.

If our SIM Unlock were to be lost after an update, I am sure TMO would not grant unlock again, as the phones are no longer on their network (one of their requirements) and we are no longer subscribers. I've never had a carrier device before, so I am a bit concerned about this.

Thank you in advance.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Hisma:
is anyone getting terrible camera quality after the update? I'm using the stock camera app. It's not that it's even missing focus... it just looks really low quality.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
It shouldn't happen, but it did happen to with a Sprint LG V30. Locked back to Sprint after Oreo update and even Sprint couldn't get it unlocked again.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] TheDannemand:
Thank you, Chazz.

I think I saw that. Worrisome.

Maybe I should ask T-Mobile before updating. They've not been very friendly after we left, though, despite us following all their rules.

Reports from any others who have SIM unlocked H932 would be much appreciated. So far I'll sit on my hands.

T-Mobil update is on hold
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] truckerdewd:
I had major issues after the update. So much so that T-Mobile had to JOD me back to the S9. I'm done with LG. The V30 was LG's last chance to wow me and they failed horribly. I actually have the V30 two chances and both phones had problems. We have had problems with LG phones in the past, the G2x with the sleep of death the G3 with the bootloop issue, a V10 that just rebooted itself while I was watching Netflix and bricked itself, and now major issues with two V30's, one on 7.1.2 and one updated to 8.0.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] stbxxl:
I updated my H932 to Oreo through LG Bridge more than a week ago. I have not experienced any of the reported issues. My V30 is very smooth. Also T-Mobile's Device Unlock app tells me that my device is still permanently unlocked. I haven't tried another carrier's SIM card though. So I have to rely on the app's statement.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] TheDannemand:
Thank you very much for posting this. That is encouraging :)

I would trust the Device Unlock app that indeed the phone is still unlocked. But certainly if others have updated after already switching to another carrier, with another SIM in the phone (as my wife and I would be doing) I would love to hear about that as well.

Thanks again for sharing this!

Would love to know why they paused the release...

Personally, oreo has been flawless on my phone. Had to reboot after install for some camera app fails ... but zero issues so far.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] truckerdewd:
They paused it due to some users, like myself and others, users having problems after updating. It's posted in the T-Mobile V30 support forums. They said that after getting reports from customer care and tech support that it warranted them putting it on hold to do some testing.

One of the bugs is that if you had the built-in McAfee crapware enabled you would get a black screen on install. I don't know if there were other bugs but if you're going to try it at least make sure McAfee is turned off.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] CHH2:
I just came in here looking into this very situation, although I'm not convinced it is necessarily Oreo related, but in the last week I've had bluetooth "skipping" problems. At first, I chalked it up to thermal cut off since I've been on a road trip since when it started and I was driving through some very summery, hot, humid areas. But it also happened while driving at night. So that wasn't it. Then I thought it was my car but now that I'm back from my trip, I've connected my jaybirds at my desk at work and still have it. So it's definitely something that's happened to the BT connection. Also having issues with my Fitbit syncing and thought that was a separate issue but thinking it might be related. Unfortunately, I don't remember this issue when I first started driving the road trip and I had Oreo then so I'm suspecting an update somewhere else did it. Problem is that I've seen so many come through and they have come through in large batches so I don't know which one it might have been.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Mike_77:
A factory reset has resolved any issues I noticed with the Oreo update. It's now running perfectly and my battery life has dramatically increased.
