[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ohmmmmmmm:
They should be in alphabetical order, not because of the alphabet, but because of the linear order of following a guide. There are only 2 variants anyone with a US998 would ever want, 20A, to unlock bootloader, and the latest. They should be in that order, so that a person can follow along, and skip the first one, 20A, if they don't need it. Nobody is ever gonna use B, C, D, E, F, G, or even H once there's anything past that, because why would they? The only 2 variants with powers above others are A (and B, but who cares, just have everyone go with A to cut down on variability, the mother of errors) because it unlocks bootloader, and the newest version. That's why they should be in "alphabetical order". It's nothing to do with the alphabet, and everything to do with the logical progression everyone using the guides is going through, like a flow chart, while trying to reach their goals. (Virtually) nobody ever has a goal of going back to firmware B, C, or D from years ago, but if that is a big proportion of the users of the thread, by all means, include it. Otherwise, erase it, or move it to the end for completeness, but don't put the downloads out of order. Put them in the order you want people to consider them. That's A, with instructions that this is just for unlocking the bootloader, then H. The end. It's not clear that the first download presented ISN'T 20A/20B -- seriously, do not underestimate the complexity of this stuff. People are following directions, and any opportunity to go wrong, plenty of people will. I downloaded H because it was the first (and I assumed only) download on the thread, and I was doing step 3 Prep before I received the phone. Then, when I had it, I was just working through Step 4 and beyond. Please put things in logical order that you want the majority of users/readers of the guide to consider them in. Every visitor to that thread considers H first, because it's the first download presented. Stop taking this as personal attacks, and stop attacking me personally. I'm giving you critical feedback to improve the guide, and prevent future people from making similar mistakes. Instead of red letters at the top, present version A for download with the same explanation, that it's for unlocking bootloader. Then, present H for download, with the explanation for why. I assume, though I might be wrong, that the vast majority of users to the thread are either downloading A, unlocking bootloader, then downloading H, or downloading H. Hence, the instructions need to be in that order.

The main part of the post, visible without scrolling could be really short and effective. Something like:

To flash these, you'll want this version of LGUP.

If you want to unlock your bootloader, flash firmware A, and follow this guide. (Only offer TWRP compatible version, why would anyone want a not-TWRP compatible version!?)

If your bootloader is already unlocked, then you probably want firmware H.

Also, the WTF guide has no mention of which LGUP to install. That should be a sub-step with a link in step 3: Prep, because everybody needs to do that.

Something like

4. Download this special version of LGUP.

5. Unlock bootloader. US998 | Variant 2 | Variant 3

6. This would be the old step 4, telling people with every variant which KDZ to get, only after they're unlocked.

People should be able to follow things in a straight line,top to bottom, and on any link, do the stuff within it in a straight line from top to bottom, close the link, and return to the next step.
