Here's the files from the update... not much we can do with them though...
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358545806
Edit: I was on 800-20k with a custom recovery (autorec) installed. Taking the update will put you in a "recovery" bootloop. I was able to get out of the bootloop by nulling out the fota partition.
I reflashed the 800-20c TOT file using LGFlashtool and then went and did a software update. It downloads both 20k and 20u updates and applies them both. Afterwards I rooted using autoprime's ioroot25r1 tool (adb sideload method).
Because there is a new kernel to support knock-code, do NOT flash a recovery using autorec or anything that will affect the kernel until a developer gets their hands on it and inserts the older bootloader.

After it errors out, do the notifications stop? I've "postponed" mine atm and have no interest in actually updating. I'm not wanting to be pestered daily by the update request. (I'm stock recovery rooted too)

Here's AT&T's update page that has some info: http://www.att.com/esupport/article.jsp?sid=KB423381&cv=820#fbid=9EhTGDbrWCI
Software update includes:
Knock Code" security feature
Calendar/ Exchange Active Sync (EAS) enhancements
I've also noticed that Album Art for music playing in Google Music now takes up the entire lock screen; the previous release only displayed in a little box at the top.

Autorec will work, but you'll lose the "knock code" which I doubt you would care about if you're going with CM. Autorec will be updated sometime after LG releases the source code for the kernel. The latest they still have posted is the code for D800-20c.

thats great, thanks. and ioroot still works as well? i'll have to do some googling what the knock code is.
I'm bone stock, unrooted and just got the latest update. Only difference i see is Knock Code (which is very cool BTW), other than that it's still the same old awesome G2. Glad to see they are still paying attention to it now that they are focusing on the G3. Wonder if we'll get the new G3 UI on the (stock) G2

have you tried the manual method:
1)open cmd window inside ioroot25 folder
2)place phone in airplane mode and enable usb debugging then plug into pc
3)type adb devices in cmd to make sure device is visible
4)after you see your device type adb reboot recovery
5)when the phone reboots into stock recovery using volume keys scroll to adb sideload update option and use power button to confirm
6)in cmd window type adb sideload kk_root.zip
7)you should see dat root on phone screen
8)enjoy root

Flashman, how did your OTA update go? Any issues us rooted/unlocked folks should be worried about?
My instinct is to delay the update until I stop seeing posts about hot it F'd up people's phones.

If you rooted and removed anything from stock rom, you're pretty much guaranteed to fail on OTA update. In order to make the OTA download package as small as possible, Samsung uses a diff patch based on the bit differences between stock JF6 image and new JH7 image. So, if you touched the JF6 in any unauthorized way, the patch won't work.
Luckily, you can now use the newly released Kies Mini to do a full ROM update which should be more reliable as you have the entire ROM image downloaded to your desktop and then flash to your phone.

What do you mean removed anything from stock rom? I rooted and removed a bunch of the bloatware and did an OTA update with no issues.
I failed along with most other rooted and flashed guys. Luckily I didn't brick my phone in the process. I will wait until some beret update comes along before trying anything ota again.

Nevermind, I guess it didn't update fully cause some of the implemented changes aren't there. I really didn't want to have to run a master clear and have to reinstall all my stuff.

Do you have TouchWiz as your default launcher? and make sure you're on your home screen when you connect your USB cable.
If that doesn't do it you need to get back to JF6 only way or another because Mini Kies will continue to tell you that you have an "unregistered" device until it is at JF6
The reason is because your update failed partially :/
are you guys talking about a new update or just JH7?
We're talking about JH7, some people are still having difficulties getting it on their phone as the OTA is still failing - and if you've failed the OTA you need to reflash to stock before mini kies will work.
when i did the update i was rooted an it didn't fail on install or bootup or anything.
but then again i'm just rooted and nothing else has been touched.

In my experience, updating via LG Support Tool wipes everything. I am backing up all my data right now. Hopefully towelroot still works on this version.
EDIT: So I just finished the update via LG Support Tool. My data was left intact, but stuff was broke anyways - probably from using system cleaner app and then not having root after the update. So I am doing a factory reset anyway and will start all over. I expected it to be wiped anyway.

I ended up using the LG Mobile Support Tool to install the update. I wasn't able to install the OTA; it booted into TWRP, then when I rebooted the system, it said I was up to date, even though I was still on 10a. I lost root, but was able to re-root with towelroot. Everything was still there when I booted, although I don't have TWRP recovery. Not sure if I want to do that since I read somewhere that I will lose Knock Code. Make sure you back up your data just in case things don't go smoothly.

If I use KDZ to flash the update, will I loose TWRP? Or do you think a flashable zip file will be made in the future?
I just updated my NON ROOTED d801 g2 and now my touch screen does not work at all. No errors during installation.
I ran into this problem before when I tried to update the touchscreen firmware through the menus via
3845#801#
My screen would go unresponsive, but after 10 mins and a couple of reboots, it would work back (my guess is that it reverted to the old touch firmware).
This time though, the touchscreen seems to be permanently disabled. Anyone else running into this issue?

Hey guys,
So I just got the G3 last week, and an update rolled out from AT&T. Me being the idiot I am thought it was the Lollipop update so I updated it. Turns out, it was just 10f.
Then when I looked for ways to root the G3, all the methods required the software to be on 10d, not f.
What should I do?
Any help is much appreciated.
Use the bruteforce method in Stump root.

This is what I would do. It is possible you got a bad OTA as well. Did you factory reset after the OTA? I have seen many cases on forums where a factory reset takes care of many issues after an OTA.

I don't know man, do you have the correct app installed? Mine went through smoothly in less than 5 minutes.
I just did this - now i am trying to bump the device. So my memory is relatively fresh
Reboot for fresh start - Run Stump - it will say device not supported - try brute force - let it run - takes 5 - 7 and maybe 10 min after which it says "reboot" device - then go ahead and reboot device. Run stump again - it should say device is rooted. Next download "root checker" it will say rooted. Ofcourse if this all does not go thru - you can downgrade to a previous firmware and it'll go easier - however that's more labor intensive and you'll not be able to back up the current ROM with all your apps and setup.
Well, I ended up having to flash back to 10d as mentioned by many of you. This fixed the problem!

If i revert to 10D do i have to use the BUMP method after root? Or just get TWRP/CWM Recovery like good ole days? I just don't care to have the BUMP bypass that is why I am asking.
I have the ATT G3 10F.

Downloading it now. I will be really interested to see if they managed to address the stand-by bug that was causing excess drain and upgrade the modem firmware to improve connectivity. Those are the two main remaining issues with this phone. Hopefully they also implemented a method to force applications into full-screen, but I'm not holding my breath on it.

Already disappointed on the modem firmware front. No upgrade there. Also, no ability to force full-screen. Going to pass judgement on stand-by bug after 48 hour or so, unless obviously an issue.

I was in the same boat as you. I was on 8.1B1 rooted so I fastboot flashed the boot.img, then rebooted , downloaded the OTA which wouldn't install.
Went back to boot-loader, flashed the boot.img to both slots, rebooted, took OTA, and it still won't work. I get "couldn't update installation problem"
I didn't have an issue getting the last OTA, the same way.
I dunno

Yea..not looking to start over.
The OTA I downloaded was off the reddit announcement thread. I'm assuming that guy pulled it off the device. Essential said they were going to post "sideloading files" also. So, I'm hoping that those are somehow different. (Otherwise why wouldn't they just throw a link up there)
Wonder if Essential pushed it since Pixel is now offering pre release of Android P?
My radio has noticeably improved, instead of VZW its finally showing Verizon wireless. And the new developer options are nice

Thought maybe I still had a custom recovery installed, but there was no TWRP in recovery. So, I just did a sideload install of the 8.1 beta using adb and then rebooted. That put me back on stock 8.1b1 and retained all my settings/data. Then I made sure my settings were correct in developer options (USB debugging, etc.), and it's finally installing. Not sure, maybe I just didn't hold my mouth right the first couple times, but it's working now.
Can anyone tell me if stable has multitouch issues that were on beta?
Rooted 7.1.1 took the update just fine, lost root and twrp
Looking at META_INF\com\android\metadata, it's expecting essential/mata/mata:8.1.0/OPM1.180104.010/144:user/release-keys but, based on the text at the top of the screen when sideloading, the device is at ssential/mata/mata:8.1.0/OPM1.180104.010/144:user/test-keys. Changing it is pointless, since META_INF\MANIFEST.MF contains a SHA-256 hash of of the metadata file. I'm going to try recomputing the hash and updating the OTA zip.
Edit: Didn't work. But has someone on reddit confirm Jank4AUs situation.
Just got the notification!
Android 9.0 - Beta 3

Don't notice anything new so far. It looks like the font may be slightly different, and the kernel has been updated. Still no notch settings, and the lag that happens still exists.
Sorry to be thick but do a have too sidload or flash or is it OTA?
I have no updates...

I fastboot flashed but you can OTA by downloading the zip from essentials sideloading like you mention
Did the GPU version changed？
OTA rolling out

It rolled out when I posted it, I got the notification about half hour before then. Probably a staggered rollout though

This was the actual ota, pushed directly to the phone.
Package was released when you posted. I thought you just flashed it through fastboot.

I upgraded from Beta 2 using fastboot rom, but didnt erase data. Everthing is working except home button. Anyone else facing this issue?
I updated ota and my home button is working fine.

Beta 4 update killed my WIFI
The Beta 4 update killed my WIFI reception on my Essential phone. YMMV
hello together.
I`m on the beta 3 with unlocked bootloader.
When I try to install the update ota on the phone I get a installation error.
What could be the problem? Do I have to lock the bootloader to be able to install updates ota?
I know that I can sideload the ota update via fastboot but would like to be able to get ota updates directly on the phone.

Yes, as was mine. I always flash them through fastboot, I'm rooted and even when I wasn't I had issues with the latest radio not applying, OTA failing even though I unrooted etc. That's why in the post I said I just received the notification.

I did the same, no issues with my home button. Did you get any failed errors? I usually flash each .img myself
New PH-1 owner here, well new to me but mint from someone else lol. Woke up with the OTA update flag. Unlocked bootloader and unlocked critical. Quick download and restart and it's good to go... No chance to play with anything or poke around yet though

Same here. I flashed the latest stable Oreo 8.1 then flashed P beta. It fixed the problem.
What's the best way to flash the fastboot files without wipe? Can I edit out the wipe command in the bat file?

If you're looking to update the build, you can just flash the OTA from the Essential site in TWRP.
Thanks!

Data reset solved the problem.
I also flash the .img myself, didnt get any error while flashing.
Anyway thanks your reply
