[LG G7 ThinQ  Guides, News, & Discussion] sandronejm:
03:04 AM, LG g7 EMW Brazil running Android 10 BETA PROGRAM latest version 28d.

Man, for a moment I was gonna surrender. That was not clear to me how to flash this. But everything is under the page 1 to 6 of this thread. I don't know why so stress, that is REALLY EASY.

Thanks for everybody who has given these instructions I got. I will reorganize these instructions the way I think it is really detailed.

I will write a tutorial below that teaches what I did to install this beta OS and I am not responsible for damages, it is only for educational purpose.

Make sure you have LG Drivers installed.

You dont need to have bootloader unlock to do this.

Step 0: we are gonna run a refurbish soon (all data erased) so step 0 is backuping your phone data in your notebook (photos and everything). You can do the backup while you work on step 1 (download section).

Step 1: files you need to download:

File 1) *.kdz file Korean OS Android pie (20k)

https://lg-firmwares.com/downloads-file/21589/G710NP20k_00_LGU_KR_OP_1220

File 2) LG UP NEW 1.5 VERSION

File 3) LGUP common.dll

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1V8IF2vJed3bQBsBCHLNBJdnW4gRj2uo0/view

File 4) *.up file for updating your 20K Android PIE Korean to Android 10 beta version 28e

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1uKIQv3TCjn0vF9shKA-_x7-RY-9Pdmai

File 5) APP apk activity launcher

https://apkpure.com/br/activity-launcher/de.szalkowski.activitylauncher

That is everything. Let's go to step 2.

Step 2) Managing these files.

At first, install LG UP new version 1.5.

Open the zip folder of LG UP COMMON dll and copy the folder common and paste inside the folder model of the LG UP installation folder. For example: C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model

You will have LGUP\model\common :)

At second, put the KDZ file for 20k Android PIE in directory C:/ to make it easy to patch it.

At third, hold on the .*up file and apk activity launcher in a download folder of your PC.

OK. Let's go to install the rom 20k Android pie korean with step 3.

Step 3) turn off your phone. make sure the battery is 80% or more. Disconect the phone from usb (charge or PC) if you are connected.

Step 4) Hold volume UP until you connect USB cable to your notebook. The phone will start Download mode, the screen will show it.

Step 5) Open Device Manager in windows and verify if your LG G7 is there. Should be in the list of devices where is "Port", click in this section. Ok you found it. Get the number after COM, mine was COM 7. What is yours? Save this number in a notepad.

Step 6) Open command prompt.

Step 7) type in command prompt: cd <path of LG up FOLDER)>

example:

cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP"

Step 8) Get your com number I asked you to save. Type this code below modifying the X with your com where is comX. And we are assuming below your LG UP folder is in C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP. Modify it if it is different. And we are assuming your kdy file for 20k is in C:/ and its name is G710NP20k_00_LGU_KR_OP_1220.kdz

lgup_cmd.exe comX "C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model\common\LGUP_Common.dll" "C:\G710NP20k_00_LGU_KR_OP_1220.kdz"

Example:

lgup_cmd.exe com7 "C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model\common\LGUP_Common.dll" "C:\G710NP20k_00_LGU_KR_OP_1220.kdz"

Run this code. It will flash 20k android pie.

Step 9) configure your new phone, set wifi, and it is good to get developer options and get USB debugg active and allow your notebook (I always do this).

Step 10) connect your Phone LG g7 in your notebook select charge only and after select transfer files (you should do this 2 times to the storage appear in your notebook).

Step 11) go to your notebook folder where you downloaded the .*up file and rename this file LMG710NAT-V28e-LGU-KR-FEB-13-2020.up to LGUP_FOTA.up.

Step 12) transfer LGUP_FOTA.up to internal storage of LG G7.

Step 13) transfer the apk of Activity Launcher to internal storage download. Install the apk.

Step 14) Open the app Activity Launcher wait it load and app will start and show a list. click Search and type FOTA.

Where is FOTA UPDATE list

There is two FOTA TEST below and a FOTA UPDATE.

Just click in the first one FOTA TEST below FOTA Update list.

It will automatically upgrade your android 9 to android 10 28e.

I upgraded from Android 9 20k to 28e. after this I upgraded from 28e to 28j and

from 28j to 28m one by one (28e, 28j, 28m, 28c, 28d) until I get to 28d.

It is obligated to upgrade one by one in the correct order (look the date of the files).

Download other versions:

Remember to rename it to LGUP_FOTA.up before putting into the internal storage

The only issue I got is the alert on boot

WARNING! Current version is not available for user. Can't find matched carrier. Check NT-Code: 72406, 72410, 72411, 72423: FF,FF,FF,FF

but it closes and the OS run well.

I am able to boot bootloader and download mode fine.
