I have a Boost LG G Stylo that's running Android 6.0, the software version is ZV7, should I install the ZV8 update, or stay on the current version.
The update size is 206.8.

Might as well update. It is only a security update. Then there is ZV9 it i a security update also, same advice. The only reason not to upgrade is if you were back at Lollipop 5.1, and that is that you could root 5.1, you can't root anything from Android 6 and up, the locked bootloader from boost/sprint/virgin mobile keeps us from rooting.

I updated my Stylo to ZV8, there's no discernible difference between it and ZV7. Just security policy updates and such I imagine.
I wish I were a more talented Android dev; if I had the skills I would put in the time and effort to do something about the locked bootloader, but alas I don't know where to begin. I've heard soft rooting on Marshmallow is possible with kingroot but I haven't tried.

Thanks for the info.
I tried the soft root a while ago using kingroot, it worked, but after I rebooted root access was lost, and it never worked again.

xposed installed moto g looking for OTA (Andriod lollipop) update

i have recently unlocked my boot loader and installed xposed followed by some useful tweaks. after hearing the announcement of andriod lollipop i was awestruck and now i feel guilty about rooting my mobile. can i get OTA update for andriod 5.0??? if yes what am i supposed to do before installing the update??? (i know it's too early to talk about it, but i can't handle my anxiety)
Find and flash a stock ROM... When the roll out starts just "un-root" using SuperSu's built in "un-root" option.

You will need to flash stock ROM, stock recovery and unroot your device in order to update to lollipop safely

LG G flex 2 H950 stuck on 5.0.1

Is there any way to flash 5.1.1 to my g flex 2? I just opened a brand new one yesterday, and I keep checking for updates and even though it is on 5.0.1, it still says no updates available. I noticed the 5.1.1 rooted system you can flash here on xda, and that is what I would like to do, can I flash it even though I am currently only running 5.0.1? Or do I have to upgrade to 5.1.1 first?
You could read a little bit more through the forum but here you have. you can follow this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-flex2/general/kdz-compatible-att-h950-t3180847 If you are in EEUU then I guess it will be easier for you to get the ATT 5.1.1 update but in case you are not like many of us then this is the fastest and easier solution.

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.

Android 10 update error

Hello,
I just got the message that the android 10 update is available for my Motorola Moto G7 Power. When I tried to download it it says "sorry there was a problem updating your moto G7 power, no changes were made". I was rooted with magisk so I unrooted and I even did a factory reset. Now I want to download the update, but it still says this error does someone have the same problem or knows how to fix this? Thanks
Most likely you would need to reflash stock firmware & relock the bootloader, but IDK for sure, as I haven't received an OTA update in over a decade.
The old f/w can be had @ lolinet, but where your service is located and whom you bought phone from dictates which version is for you. If unsure, post up the xt1955-? and where you bought it & who is your service provider.
None of the official 10 f/w have been posted to lolinet yet, sadly. Am checking often, myself.

Not sure about the 9 to 10 upgrade, but I do know in 9, the update will not allow a version downgrade of the modem.
It gives the same error message.
