you can flash it with LG UP, but you will lose all data, I learned it the hard way.... the tuturial I read did not mention it...
What about using LG bridge and checking software update through that?
I have the Sprint LG G7 ThinQ. I'm going to try this later on this evening see if it's any different.

Cross flashing will leave me out of the ota loop and sprint kdz is not available atm so i would lose stock kdz.
Not worth it till a exploit comes to install twrp and i can backup.

I'm thinking the same thing. Also to the OP, I don't think people wanted Pie so much, as the timely updates that were promised between Google's Project Treble and LG themselves. Since a lot of people will be left on a locked bootloader, we actually have to wait for workarounds (exploits) to getting AOSP/Lineage/etc running. Sadly, this makes these phones less desirable for devs to work on/improve.
Impatient when it took a year ? Id biy a 50$ phone if i want no updates
I'll be moving onto another phone long before my G7 sees Android 10, not because I didn't my phone but because I'll have the itch for a new one before the end of next year.
I do like the Pie update I got from Verizon. I just wish the Pie update worked as well on my V30.
They update in 1 week of August
My lg g7 emw running pie for last 3 month

Ok so I got a lg v10 h900 it has already been updated to mm and I'm wondering if there's any way to go bk to lollipop
I am guessing you are trying to go back for root right? Well, you cannot go back. It will not work, and you will brick your device in the process. Don't worry, me and LGMono are working on getting root for MM right now, we are VERY close if this TOT is authentic...
Any root for the h900 yet

Oh, I stopped working on this phone a little while ago, I do not care enough about this phone to continue working on it. I am sorry. But if anyone finds anything viable, I would be more than happy to help
Hey all! Good news! A 9-year-old bug called the "Dirty Cow" exploit still exists in the Linux/Android kernel can easily grant root on any Android phone!!! See the video below.
http://www.xda-developers.com/9-year...on-of-android/
So there's another bug to exploit for root and even possibly unlocking the bootloader! The bug has been fixed recently in Linux but hasn't been rolled into Android yet. If anyone can get this working on my AT&T LG V10 (running Marshmallow) I'll give a reward of $50! Plus you'll be my hero! Now get crackin!
So again its time for a good news ... For g4 and g4 plus users
Today i chat with Some Moto Executives to know about android 7.1.1 status for moto g4 plus.. i hoping that they say that we don't know but this time their answer is different . All of them now saying that Android 7.1.1 is starting rolling out in G4 plus In India..and Its a soak test build which is rolled out for all users ... And they claiming that few of their customers already get update
Check the chat screenshot for proof... :')
great news!!
They might be talking about the 14-4 update (still 7.1).
this T Gowthami is the only rep they have online? So so so famous, sometimes I feel like banging my head on the wall. Anyways the update will come when it has to come, nothing from our side will change the schedule.

Where is the information about the update ??

Confirmed
Motorola representative called me today for clearing the information about Android 7.1.1 update for Moto G4 Plus.
They have already started soak test of this update and the period of testing is near to end this month.
So, as per him, the update will start to rollout in 1st or 2nd week of May.
Congratulations!
Coming from future:
Athene won't get Android 7.1.1 neither 7.1.2. Lenovo ****ed up in marketing and we were not supposed to receive Android O, but Lenovo accepted their error now we've Android O confirmed only for G4 plus variant

If you trust all the news released by manufacturer you should know that there's a straight plan to release Oreo not 7.1.1
This thread is a little bit outdated, probably Oreo will be released if Motorola wants it.

Maybe they even wait until 8.1 release, Lenovo never said which Oreo the G4 Plus will get.
Actually guys g4+ will directly habe 8.0 update rolled out. Soak tests for N are already over. Moto executives have minimal to no info actually. We should expect the O update by the end of april next year, since g5s and g5 are in the line getting O first.
Thread closed as it is a) old, and has b) drifted away from the original topic.
I bought a lg g7 on ebay thinking it was the 710 ULM but investigating I realized that it was the 710pm converted to ULM. Is there any possibility to upload it to PIE since it does not update by OTA ...
return it and buy a pixel 3.
or get the modified lg up from here and the latest firmware from here
but seriously dont buy a g7. it could be great with a great rom, but there just isnt a lot of development behind it.
-Here- You can find step by step what I did to get android Pie 9 on LG G7. I had the same Phone, PM crossflashed to ULM.
LG G7 its a great phone, but if you want a phone with a large development community behind, this is not the chose one. IMO even not worth to try flash Custom Recovery or Root, there is not good rom out there and the Stock Rom with Android Pie work flawless.
Every Phone what I've have before got Custom Rom/Revovery since day One, but lately is not necessary to survive. A lot of things already are on stock rom. Anyway, I dont have any regret with this LG G7 (Good performance, Good Price $140), my last phone was a LePro 3 x727 with a great performance on Custom Rom (SD821, 4/64Gb Android 9 AOSiP, Magisk, Gcam Etc...) And I dont miss it at all...
I will try when I get home!

I bought this phone as well. It was too late to return it but I complained anyway. They gave me a $20 refund.
So all I can do is install lineage os 17 since there will be no OTA? Installing that OS or any OS looks very complicated. There is no way to upgrade from Oreo without wiping all the data?

Sadly not , but the crossflash process is not that difficult if you follow the guide .
I have sucessfully updated 2 G7's one pm(sprint) and a vm(verizon) both working pretty great on android 10. Can't speak about volte or wifi calling since I've bever used those services so if you are interested in that I can't give you any input
On the other hand you could try lineage os or any ither or the custom roms and some of them do support updates from within the same rom , no facotry reset needed unless upgrading from lets say 10 to 11
I have a PM I am trying to sell .. it was cross-flashed before I bought it.. I used as a wi-fi only phone very happily (that was my goal).. but am trying to get it saleable.... I cannot find an official Sprint ROM to flash? ie. I want to flash it back and sell it as original (ie. usable for Sprint) rather than sell as a frankenstein. Any pointers?

There is not Sprint stock Rom avaliable. Cross flash is a not-return journey. Anyway, there is nothing worng with crosflashed Roms, just a couple apps you cant download from Gplay Store, but you can grab apk from another store. On android 10 you can install some from Gplay like Netflix.

Which is what leads me to believe that most of the ‘ULM-PM’ model isn’t actually anything crossflashed but an actual ULM model ,that has imei that were simply issued to sprint assigned by lg firmware distribution division wtfever...
And that sprint G7’s simply were ulm models is all..
There may be crossflashed variant phones also BUT when u buy a bnib SEALED lg g7 and box says ulm but the sticker isn’t the ‘standard ulm’ and u look up imei and it says sprint..
well.... um yeah logic common sense wouuuuld dictate..
Thee Above^
**now if it were after the tmobile buyout then ofc the firmware would be MIGHT been ‘TM’
Any questions...
It’s already been said that most all g7 have ALL the bands but you have to enter a service menu to enable the ones the modem leaves open avail
Any other questions. .

No, yours isnt. Only the EUROPEAN V500EMs are supported, not the ones from other regions. IMEI/Device ID isnt whitelisted for other regions to unlock. (but it will tell you that when you try).
Every V500EM can go to fastboot btw, or other open market variants, just the carrier variants cant. (but, with temp root/firehose thats possible todo then too)

As you can see, LG has pretty much left us in the dirt here in Oz...
There are no other places still on Android 9. Most, if not ALL major OEM's have upgraded, if not all their devices, their flagship phones to Android 10...
If they aren't going to do it themselves, at least allow us to do so by producing a generic CSC specific ROM, like Samsung has...
As I say, my security patch is for October last year. If nothing else, this should have been updated...
Anyone know when/if Android 10 is coming to RETUS/Retail US? I'm on the XT1955-5 and this seems (from what I've seen) to be the most common model. I'm hoping that it will come soon because I like some of the newer features in Android 10, alongside the fact that the Settings will no longer burn my retinas. Thanks!
Unfortunately, there's no android 10 for retus yet... I'll let you know if i get any news about it
I'm in the USA but have retin. I've got the update and a June 1st patch for security already.

Probably right. I guess there is a kind of work around to that by flashing certain imgs from another retail to retus. I haven't done it yet, but it sounds a lot like what happened a few yrs ago with my atrix hd and the razr hd. Atrix got left on 4.1.2, razr got 4.4.2, could flash some imgs from razr, without touching the bootloader, and i had moto's official 4.4.2 on my atrix. I believe its the same concept here with retus, but i haven't tried it yet.
