^^ Same here very curious after reading through everything. Bought a new unlocked G710VM on eBay for T-Mobile carrier and flashed G710ULM20f. Not bad so far after doing the apn settings. But when in LGUP, it only flashed when UPGRADE was checked in my case. Refurbished didn't work but didn't do Partion DL being unsure what to check and uncheck. Was totally scared. Lol. Weird. It's working though right now. Tomorrow going to try dual mode mentioned above maybe. Thanks for the great guide and time. Cheers.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Guides, News, & Discussion] prmbasheer:
Glad it worked for you with "Upgrade". Haven't come across anyone using "Upgrade" yet.

I have flashed once from OREO to PIE. I used "Refurbish". It was basically an update over same firmware (GM-G710ULM). I used "Refurbish" cuz almost all posts suggested it.

Now, I am planning to flash Canadian Android Q (G710AWM). I am not sure about what to select. "Refurbish" or "DLL Partition" or Both (meaning double flash) ?!?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Guides, News, & Discussion] netookska05:
If refurbish don't work or gives an error use dl option. Then do refurbish again because when your crossflashing with dl option sometimes the phone will ask you to enter a password when setting up phone.

Crossflashing again with refurbish gives you a cleaner flash and you do not get the enter password prompt.

I went ahead and flashed my device running USA unlocked Android 9 (G710ULM20f_00_NAO_US_OP_0218) with Canadian unlocked Android 10 (G710AWM30b_00_OPEN_CA_OP_0605).

I did a "partition dl". Flash went successfully. Yet to check how it works. Initial check seems positive. Happy to be running Canadian Android 10 with June 2020 security patch!

Update:

1) Signal in ULM pie firmware wasn't great here in Canada. Now even with Canadian firmware, there is no improvement in signal. However It so far haven't affected connectivity.

2) Volte is working.

3) Wifi Calling works.

4) Netflix works.

5) Google protect works.

6) Google Pay works!

7) S/N is still missing.

8) SmartWorld doesn't let log-in. No themes section in SmartWorld. ULM firmware had it.

9) Audio quality seems marginally better than ULM pie firmware. Could be my imagination too!

10) Battery is fine mostly. Battery was marginally better with Android 9. Not a deal-breaker though.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Guides, News, & Discussion] LarsR_1978:
Thanks! It worked perfectly on one of my G7 710ULM. For a second I had an entry in S/N, but disappeared directly. German language is working.

Is an update possible with not lossing data and is it recommended?

As far as I know, update through OTA won't work. Needs to be done manually by flashing. However I don't see future updates for the device. It might get a security patch or two.

Hi,

I got that

Safety e-Report app preinstalled ( play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=kr.go.safepeople&hl=en ). It has a bunch of permissions and a suspicious support Email "safepeople.go.kr@gmail.com" . I'm not pretty sure if that is an official korean government app for tracing covid-19 and other "safety issues" or if that ist scam or malware.

Does anybody know more about that app? Thank you!

BR
[LG G7 ThinQ  Guides, News, & Discussion] prmbasheer:
I wouldn't know.. I have installed Canadian firmware. If you have installed Korean one, may be it is a COVID19 related app or something like that. I won't be too concerned. Just remove it for the user using adb.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Guides, News, & Discussion] LarsR_1978:
I installed that firmware above, it is listed as canadian firmware "lg-firmwares.com/de/downloads-file/23014/G710AWM30b_00_OPEN_CA_OP_0605"

Do you have another source? I will try it with adb at the weekend.

Thank you!

[LG G7 ThinQ  Guides, News, & Discussion] prmbasheer:
I too have installed the same firmware. But it is a Canadian firmware. I don't see the apps you mentioned in my device. It is completely bloatware free.

LGUPc.dll Issue

Hello! Newbie Flasher, kinda Newbie to XDA, had an account for a few years, just cant remember if this is how to reply to your post, if wrong, sorry!!

My name is Sully!

I'm having a little issue with the instructions. Why do I copy the 3 folders Codefire, Log, Model? Also when you say copy those files, do you mean FOLDERS, because there is no files called that, only folders? You said copy them, but don't say where to put them? Also when I follow instructions to the T I don't see a LGUPc.dll file appear anywhere? There's already one in the unzipped folder in the WindowsLGFirmwareExtract-1.2.6.1-Release folder, but it's there before anything is done?

Please, any help would be frickin' awesome!!!

Thanks

I am trying to do the same and flash a Sprint model that seller on eBay put the 10g ULM firmware upon.

The instructions state to copy first 3 files, 1 is a folder, CODEFIRE-LOG-Model Folder, problem is, those are not the 1st 3 and 2 of them do not exist.

Trying to share image I created and uploaded to my Facebook page, see if it attaches...

Will try and just copy 1st 3 and see how it goes, likely be back to either read or reply.. Damn tick infection took away my reading ability, no short term, so will be fun...

I do not see the photo.

LGTreeView2.ocx

Now have this message trying to flash the latest canadian firmware.

This a known error with this Sprint ULM modded phone, did not see this in thread.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Guides, News, & Discussion] sobitthen:
Got it..

Found post about running a command, had to run from folder copied from his Google Drive, did the dev flash, and it does get past the animation, so not sure if still need the refurb flash or not.

Was this refurb flash just in case could not get past animation? Want to hand off the phone to the kid to play with, his phone, hopefully that was the reason...

Did not like being stuck without netflix or old security patches from 2018.. will update if any more issues, but so far so good, thinks it is a new phone...

LG UP always on unknown. Every guide.

I have a Sprint LGG710PM that was flashed to LG710ulm (Android 8)

I am trying to flash a newer .kdz on it (G710ULM20f_00_NAO_US_OP_0218.kdz)

I have tried all the guides in this thread step by step. (The 1st guide is a little ambiguous since it tells instructions about programs that exist in multiple folders, but doesn't clarify which folder you should executing in) I've even tried using uppercut from older guides as well.

My phone always shows up as unknown in LG UP.

I really wanna update and retain this phone but am running short on my 30 day return window. Never flashed phones but have hacked consoles and this appears easier 'cept i dont' know whats wrong here.

Please help.

So, i follows the steps but I chose the partition DL method and didn’t select checkboxes in the pop up.

This gave me the “your device has failed a routine safety check”

I need to have this fixed and have the Verizon rom flashed (as I have read it works the best) and losing patience lol.

Any anyone help me resolve this as a service?

Has anyone encountered a problem with voice/call roaming suddenly not working?

I have 2 G7's that were flashed from PM to ULM, both running 20f version and one of them will not roam at all since couple days ago. The other one is still fine.

Network reset, factory reset, nothing fixed it.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Guides, News, & Discussion] ooompa:
FYI, I first reflashed it with Android 8 file and the roaming worked right away. Reflashed it again with 20f file and it's still working.

No idea what caused it but re-flash is the fix.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Guides, News, & Discussion] LarsR_1978:
New version available for the crossflashed - I recently updated to G710EM30f_00_OPEN_EU_OP_1124 (Dutch european version).

I choosed upgrade option iirc, but it did refurbish flash, so I had to restore all my data. Imho 4g improved for German Telekom and as it is an european version, not as much "bloatware" - more privacy according to gdpr compared to asian ROMs.

Phone flashed successfully. Looks good, still No S/N, September 1st security update, 4glte icon shows, selected on Automatic LTE3g/2g/4g (before its says wcdma) option in network setting.

Signal is not too good for me. LTE download speedtest i got 14.8 mbps before right now its 4 mbps.

Im on Tmobile USA only got 1 or 2 bar (-106dbm) on band 4 or 2. if find band12 it will Have 4 bar at my location for now.

Other than that the firmware runs great, wifi calling works on T-mobile. FM radio app changed to next radio. It has 4k 60fps option now in camera app. Google pay can't set up though ,guess that no S/N thing. But overall Im happy with this Rom.

I guess for future update we just have to follow Project Fi firmware flash manually. Hopefully Android pie come out soon.

Thank you so much for sharing the info.

[LG G7 ThinQ  Guides, News, & Discussion] chickan:
Probably won't work, usually there is an anti-downgrade check or something similar. I saw similar text fly by during the LG UP process.

Separately, I'm in the same boat, ordered an "Unlocked" from ebay, got the LG710PM flashed to LG710ULM with May security update, no updates available. Out of the box, worked fine for Data and MMS, but SMS (regular text messaging) didn't work on Page Plus. Just followed this guide, flashed smoothly! Now on G710ULM10g with September 1st security patch. With the update, everything is working, call, SMS, MMS, works great.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Guides, News, & Discussion] kasuma_asuma:
I’m not sure if I can talk this in here, but this unit that we bought has an frp lock. The seller showed us before we bought the phone that he’s resetting it. Didn’t realize that android has that frp thing now. So we thought we just have to go home and set it up on the internet. But it was locked. I was using an iphone for awhile and my last phone that I was actively flashing and always on xda site was HTC One S. lol anyways, maybe I’ll try this and see what’s gonna happen. Nothing to lose. This phone is a waste of money and a paper weight.

g710pm bricked

937/5000

I will inform again. From the beginning

1. my g7 thinq is the sprint model with original firmware, g710pm12a

2. Follow the steps described. Uninstall all LG soft.

3. extrai .dll, I use kdz g710ulm, in the lgup only upgrade and fota upgrade appears.

4. I select upgrade and fota upgrade.and shows error: you can not cross the model.

5. I close lgup, restart g7 but now only a firmware update is restarted, I use hard reset, it does not work.

6. Install lg bridge does not recognize cellular.

7. I install lg support tools, it recognizes firmware g7 (g710pm11a), in the top left, above installing driver, where the model should appear, it just says waiting for connection.

8. I enter recovery, income the imei, check the cell phone, pc, so. when going to the discharge of the s / w. does not perform any action, the loading bar does not appear, and the button only marks exit, the store counter stops at 00:24.

[MENTION=2013959]bobloadmire[/MENTION] need the stock firmware dump to restore his G710PM sprint.

He can just flash the dumped system_01.img back to his phone to restore his phone.

Just rename system_01.img to system.bin and use patched LGUP to flash system.bin to fix the issues.

Also it seems we need a modded DLL as just the patched version of LGUP fails to dump. I even have an authentic LG octoplus and cannot dump the firmware. I think we need the DLL before we can get this working or wait until LG/Sprint pushes the next update (Pie). We could possibly then get the firmware from the update and have a restore (Sprint) method.

2. on the 10f, there is no wifi calling, will i get wifi calling after update?

3. I see my phone using band 4 all the time, even i drive 50miles everyday. So how can i tell the 10f have band 2 or 12 enable? i am using t-mobile.
