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 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.

My phone just let me know there is a new OTA ATT Software Update. Has anybody gone through with the update? What does it upgrade? Will I lose root if I upgrade?
Thanks ahead of time for any help you can provide.
Cheers,
Matt
It should be 10f and if it is it does not break root.
Seriously, people are still only just getting the 10f OTA? What gives? How can it take so long to push a simple update like this out to ALL AT&T LG G3 users? Where abouts in the world are you Matt?
Generally if the phone is old stock this happens. Many new stock devices come out of the box with 10f
I got my phone yesterday from an att corporate store. Came with 10d and it's asking me to update. I declined for now.
It will eventually force the update but you can still root 10f with stump mine forced today. What a great update though all the aux problems are fixed now no more popping sound and no more having to put power cord in to get it to work
Haha apparently ota with custom recovery is a bad idea. Back to frozen updates for me.....
My G3 is on 10d and it tells me that mine is up to date.
So as you know 3 days ago a small OTA update came out for Verizon which is pretty much the same one AT&T received last month. On wifi I tried to download the update via OTA on the phone, my phone is not rooted and when I tried to download it it just failed in the middle of downloading and I got the error code 503. The wifi I'm using is very fast and steady and nothing else on the phone is having an issue at the moment. So I tried to download it again and it told me that the software currently installed on the phone(original phone release date software) is the newest up to date software. So I called Samsung and told them the situation along with the new build number "VRU1AOD5"(from the new OTA not installed on my phone yet) and software version number currently installed on the phone(5.0.2) and they told me that I'm up to date 5.0.2 and that to their knowledge they never heard of the update or build number I gave them and there was no update for Verizon. So how I can redownload the OTA? because for 3 days now I'm unable to download the OTA due to the 503 error from the very first time I tried to download the update.
What is mind boggling to me is how Samsung the creator of the device has no idea of this update so they can't even help me out. Then they're basically telling me how the hell am I getting the 503 error when I have the latest build(according to them) and software update which is not the case here and I told them that.

This is an xpost from where i posted originally (Moto G - 2014) since I was in the wrong forum. Please forgive.
I'm running 4.4.4 stock on an XT 1040 (the LTE Canadian Rogers variant of the MotoG). I had unlocked the bootloader and rooted the phone, but other than that kept the stock image. About 2 weeks ago my wife, with the same model, was offered 5.0.1 (or some version of Lollipop) OTA. She upgraded no probs (other than hanging a long time on the download screen). About 3 days later I was offered OTA on my rooted MotoG. After running through the download, it rebooted and tried applying the update and got mid way through and rebooted back to 4.4.4 saying there was an error. I tried again, same problem. So I started reading posts and realized that while my image was stock, because of the way I must have gained root the OTA update wouldn't apply because the kernel must be altered.
So, I followed the instructions here (linky) to go back to the stock image, but now it's been about a week and I have not been offered the OTA again. A couple days ago I talked with Motorola about whether OTA is re-offered in situations like mine if its offered once and the guy said no and to call Google to get them to re-initiate it. I'm not really positive I trust that answer since he seemed kind of, well, "level1tech" and seemed anxious to get off the line.
Anybody know if the OTA is tied to your IMEI or google accounts and whether it's likely it will be offered again?
TIA
Hey guys, I just got myself an unlocked ATT G4 H81010b. My girl and I got matching phones, and after she bought the bring your own phone ST SIM pack and transferred her number she received an OTA update. Her phone is now H81010o. I'm not sure if hers was a 10b before the update i didnt think to check. I did not want to set up my phone until I was able to figure out how to root it, however - now that I have found I need an OTA in order to root it (i havent seen any confirmed 10b roots, i cant find any 10b specific commands - i was going to use the "root injection method"). The only difference here is, I am simply moving my SIM from my G2 to my G4, so I'm wondering if this would make any difference as to whether i recieve an OTA or not? Furthermore, I am confused because all the research I have done indicates that ST doesnt do OTAs. But i do know that her phone restarted, downloaded a software update and installed it. Is it possible for me to manually install the update? I really would just like to root, install TWRP, and CM13 (or maybe I'll try a different ROM this time). I know this is a loaded question, but any help is appreciated.
I finally found a confirmed working H81010b rooted image, no need to update now.
