I tried updating to 2.3.3 using the lg updater, that was a fail. States I have the latest version. V10f. Under phone model it states LG-P999dwdu?? Tried ota, says I have the latest update. I've tried reverting back to a factory backup I made when I first got the phone, nothing..Unrooted, nothing, factory recovery, nothing.. Tried Gunmanns factory restore, nothing....Unrooted with factory recovery, nothing. I bought the phone outright new in April. The phone model on the back states LG-P999. Called LG, they told me my model is LG-P999DW and that the DU on the end means nothing. There has to be a meaning for the extra letters at the end. When I purchased this it was new. Does anyone have an idea what this model number means?
LG tried to walk me through the update again and when it failed again, they wanted me to wait two weeks for ota update from T-Mobile. If that doesn't work, they want me to trade my phone I bought new for $500+ for a refurbished one. I don't even want the factory rom, just the baseband. Miui is running smooth for me.
I appreciate any help that I can get right now. Neither T-mobile or LG have an answer for me.
Refurbs won't update with the updater either. They are model # P999dwp. I'm stuck waiting as well.
mine just says "LG-P999"... it wasn't refurbed. LG updater says the model is not supported. I dont get it.

Do you have the stock recovery installed?
That or use the KDZ flasher that's floating around with a 32-bit XP machine or virtual machine. Might work? Don't hold me accountable for bricks; it's just a suggestion. Never heard of P999DWDU before. Just DW and DWP.
yea i do... reverted to try the update. I flashed to stock using OneClickRecovery and unrooted using SuperOneClick. model not supported. I don't even really need the LG stock update....just want the new baseband
I haven't tried the kdz flasher yet. I was just curious if anyone has heard of this model number.

Are you talking about the update from Samsung's website?
If you're talking about just upgrading an Over The Air (OTA) Upgrade, it should be able to be done from your "About Phone" settings. It should upgrade your baseband and android version to the proper versions that your carrier and phone manufacturer provide.
If you're talking about rooting and a custom rom, XDA has loads of files and guides to help you with rooting the phone, installing a custom recovery, and learning to flash ROMs and modems and such to your will.
I hope this helps you, but I don't know too much about your carrier.
Ok guess I got an att g3 off craigslist, it was rooted and had custom recovery, don't know if boot loader is unlocked but I decided just to go all stock and did so through LG flash tool and everything is good and its running the 10d software and I tried to uptake to get the 10f but it keeps saying I'm up to date. How do I get the new update and second ant ideas why it's showing up to date if 10f came out shone time ago?
The update rolls out in batches. Since you activated it recently it probably went to the "end of the list" for devices needing to be updated.
I've been looking everywhere for the latest updated firmware for the SM-915A. Apparently my phone updated without my knowledge, (Thanks again AT&T) and I went to roll back to KitKat without looking at my FW version....now soft bricked. Does anyone know where i can find the latest version? Thanks.
Use kies. Under tools there is an option to initialize or something. There you put in your serial number an it will flash your phone with the latest os from your carrier. Think your phone must be in either download mode or the "firmware update had an issue, please connect to kies" mode.

Go to best buy they will refresh your phone. Kies are not working on At&t phones.

Thanks for the info
I had boot loop. Fixed it on my T Mobile Note Edge by booting into recovery and doing a factory reset. I am now on 4.4.4 native.
This is the AT&T variant...note edge SM-915A. We don't have an unlocked bootloader, hence no custom recovery to boot into and reflash
I didn't use a custom recovery. I would have mentioned that. I used Samsung's stock recovery mode and did a hard reset
Gotcha...yeah mine killed stock recovery too. We'll after being without a phone for a week, I tried best buy Samsung experience and they couldn't fix it. I ended up going to the Samsung service center storefront and they finally got it going again for free. Well looks like I'm stuck on LP though but at least I've got a phone again

download the above kdz.. download & install "LG UP"..connect your phone thru USB (im assuming u have LG usb drivers installed & ur pc detects it perfectly)
open LG UP.. select the kdz file
Select "UPGRADE" & execute... 10-15 min for installation & another 15-20 for booting up.

Guys, I purchased an unlocked AT&T LG V10. It's currently running h90020j. I haven't received any ota updates yet.
My concern is that if I flash the new software version, will my phone get locked again? I use Etisalat SIM card in it.
i want to update my Unlocked AT&T LG V10 to the latest update H90021W. i tried using lg bridge but it prompts me to update from the update center from the phone itself. when i try to update from the phone, it shows "Device is up to date".
my question is that if i update via flashing the firmware file, will my device be relocked by AT&T? i live outside USA and Etisalat as my carrier. i have already downloaded the .kdz file for v21w software. i worried whether the device will get relocked by AT&T. help me out guys.
also i am getting a pretty poor battery out of my V10. wondering whether the new update would give me a better battery life.

I have updated to H90021W months ago it went smooth and error free. all my data was kept in tact and I have face 0 issues since then. I hope they find a way to get the kdz file for the future updates. Also no it shouldn't relock the device mine was unlocked when it updated and stayed unlocked.
I have a problem with my phone that I cant be updated. I found many times on internet about its rom, on lg fanclub but there's no kdz file for v450pm. Can you guys help me with this problem??? I went to setting and it show software version v450p10n although my friend also have a LG v50 v450pm like me but his phone show v450p20h and android 10. Can u guys show me the tip?? Lots of thank!!
here is kdz file for v450pm: Firmware LG V50 ThinQ 5G LMV450PM for your region - LG-Firmwares.com (lg-firmwares.com) there's nothing
and here is kdz file for v450vm: Firmware LG V50 ThinQ 5G LMV450VM for your region - LG-Firmwares.com (lg-firmwares.com) there are 3 files kdz!!!
Sprint(v450pm) phones don't usually have their kdz published. So you can't update or downgrade using that method. I also have the phone and I got OTa to 20h in December. Have you modified the phone in any way? Root, uninstalled system apps, etc? You can try clearing data of "FOTA update", all 3 "software update" and "update center" , restart the phone and try searching for new software again. If it dose not work, you may have to try a factory reset of the phone.

I got the exact same model as yours,but sim unlocked,open box never used,about 10 days ago.
Because i use it in Europe,i was really worried if it was going to get any further updates beyond android 9 with which it came from the seller i bought it.
After a lot of searching here and there before buying it,most people,and the seller included,where assuring me that it would get android 10 and every OTA updates in future,because Sprint roms are not completely locked like AT&T for example.
Everyone said that i would get the updates as it should,but i could not flash any rom because Sprint never publish it's roms.
Someone suggested me not to install my carrier's sim card when i power on tge phone,and let it just connect via wifi,saying that this way is more safe to get updates.
The reason why should i do that,he explained me,is because sometimes our carriers implement their set up or something like this,in our device,through the carriers settings app,and with that way we couldn't get updates.
Long story short,when i got the phone,i just powered it on,without inserting my sim card,and right after the set up,i got the first update notification,which was upgrade to android 10.
After this first update,i continiously took 3 more updates,one after the other in an hour,with my final update to be v20h December 2020.
So my opinion is if you don't mind,try and factory reset your phone,backing up first,in case something goes wrong,and set it up again from scratch,without your sim card..just give it it's time to connect to LG servers.
I hope it helps.

thank you. i bought another phone, k20 pro. it's ez for me to flash, up anyrom i want. really love this. i hate lg from now
I wanted a custom rom until none of them supports the quad dac, even if i get a next device I'll still keep the v50 as a dedicated music device with a 512 SD card. I'm on sprit version and it updated to v450p20j yesterday, fingers crossed for 11 but LGs history for updates is a gamble.

LG is closing their mobile business in few years. better to choose a different brand
