when us995 will get 5.1. I despratly needed it. I soft brick my phone so need it asap
Can someone help me unroot?
Super n00bster here. I rooted my phone awhile back in an attempt to some how solve the lag issue. Now that the 5.1 update is about to be released OTA by Sprint, I would like to just go back to an unrooted state. Any insight on how to do this would be greatly appreciated!

Try to find kdz of your current verion firmware and flash it through lg flash tool. Search it in google.
1 way is..download this app from playstore..
Lg phone from.apk
Give your imei.
And on last tab there will be link of your stock kdz
But if its out then...
Flash it through lg flash tool .
yep, starting to roll today!

Talked to a Sprint rep. All G Flex 2s will be updated to 5.1.1 by the end of today/ the 10th. Time to start clicking that update button lol

do not unroot you will brick your device
just remove all apps that use root acess en go to your super su app and delete logs and uncheck enable super user
then just update via LG support tool
Does anyone else find it odd that the official rollout of 5.1.1 for Sprint started on the 8th, yet no one here has received it two days later?

I completely agree. Freaking annoying too
Beginning to think the guy on s4gru.com was full of it and Sprint has pushed the update back for some reason. Or that guy is the only person in the US to receive. I called Sprint last night to ask when the update will be pushed and they just gave the blanket answer of "It's a staged rollout, we can't determine when you will receive it".

Just wondering if anyone in the UK has seen an Oreo update for the mate 9?

Updated mine via Firmware Finder in February.

Looked at Firmware Finder but unsure if this will work with an un-rooted Mate?
Also, the reviews of the App seem rather negative and so I'm wary of doing this and then bricking the phone or running into problems.
Are there any other ways to get the Oreo update?
MHA-L29 (C432) here, fully stock. Got tired of waiting for the Oreo OTA so used Firmware Finder a couple of weeks ago. Running 8.0.0.366 now. Check some YT tutorials and do it, you'll be fine.
I prefer to update system software via OTA other than via any 3rd-party ways.

I'm kind of the same way. I use to root, flash, and modify all the time, but as Android has matured over the years,
for what I use a phone for, I just don't screw with it. Shoot, at the end of the day, unless someone calls me,
I never pick it up til the next morning.

Likewise. Just remember sometimes for reasons only known to Huawei your IMEI might never end up getting approved and you'll be stuck running an unpatched outdated firmware version. Firmware Finder uses some DNS/proxying trickery to get around that, it doesn't tamper with your ROM/device in any way.
I got all OTAs before Oreo. By the end of March I had enough with waiting and successfully used FF to jump to 8.0.0.366. I would advise you to do the same if nothing has come through yet even if just for those security patches.
I got my phone through the 3 network. There hasn't been an update since November. I'm getting the impression they've just stopped updating this phone sadly.
I used firmware finder for the first time and found it easy and straightforward. Used the proxy method. I'm now on Oreo with march security update. Phone is quicker and battery life is better.
Was a bit skeptical about firmware finder myself but I'm happy with it after giving it go. Would prefer OTA but it's far too slow.

Are you on 3 in the UK? I am still waiting for the Oreo update as well - guessing you would recommend going the FF route, then? And does the full March update on FF update the EMUI version to 8 as well? Sorry for all the questions!

or am I limited...? currently on A530WVLSBRH3 on Oreo... sept security update so it looks super recent.
looks like samsung cut the FM radio again... but this time we get to use next radio... no bad but not great. Couldn't use the "secure startup on boot" trick to work the FM radio app this time
thinking of rooting but it's a brand new phone hardly used so maybe I'll hold off on it for now. Would I be able to use your files if I wanted too?

Why not update to October A530WVLS3BRJ1
I assume Oreo updates put a stop to CF Auto root style?
Why not update to October A530WVLS3BRJ1?
my phone JUST auto updated to this version. runs pretty nicely. I've yet to root- don't want to trip Knox just yet...
although at this point I'm not sure if I care- samsung pay will never work in canada it seems.

The website doesn't even show the last update. It shows an update for Tizen 3.0 dated 13 months ago yet mine updated to 4.0.0.2 sometime in the 2nd half of last year so the website is definitely not up to date.

Yeah that's why I said grain of salt. I really don't even think it's out for TMobile yet which makes sense since usually any device with a mobile radio takes longer on the carrier side than the wifi variant
I don't have any version of the device yet, but I'm close to pulling the trigger.
But before I do, I just wanted to check.... Will the T Mobile version of the device receive the OTA updates, like this latest v9.5.7, along with non-carrier locked devices, or will there be a delay while TM puts together their own update?
usually all carrier locked devices take longer since the carrier wants their stuff in there
TMobile is always behind.

Well I'm only in 9.5.6 and that update just moved me from being 2 months behind on security updates to one month behind. Still waiting for camera update and I had to use a calibration trick just so I could fix the DTTW feature on this device. Honestly, as much as I like this phone, if you can avoid getting it through TMobile, I would recommend you do so. They will always be behind in the latest updates. That is the main reason why all my previous devices were unlocked Pixel/Nexus devices (minus a few outlier devices). I wanted to try something new and within 3 what realized why I moved away from carrier branded devices.
can someone explain the versioning to me? I bought my op7pro from OnePlus but I'm only on OS 9.5.4 with no updates available. How are other people getting 9.5.7 already?

Not sure; could be where you are on the map. OnePlus usually has incremental updates. There's always Oxygen Updater from the Google Play store. That will allow you to download 9.5.7 and install it locally as opposed to OTA.

@klym.software Since you purchased your device through OnePlus directly, you have the unlocked version which is on the 9.5.4 latest update. You have the camera fix and the DDTW fix. Those of us who purchased the device through Tmobile came with the 9.5.5 version, and were updated to 9.5.6. All that update did was move us from the April 2019 security update to May 2019. We are still not in June and probably won't be for awhile. We also still do not have the camera update fixes even though the unlocked OnePlus devices received the update 2 weeks ago. I hope this better explains the difference in version numbers.

You might want to check again. The T-Mobile 9.5.6 update was basically the April security patches not May, 9.5.7 for the unlocked version doesn't even have the May security patches yet.

T-Mobile gets OTA 2 months after the security patch in international which usually gets them only one month delayed. I'm running 9.5.7 international and have April 1 security patch level. Since it's not a pixel, you have to wait for them to add oxygen stuff and test before releasing an OTA.

This reply to everyone else as well..
Oneplus 7 Pro is able to become unbranded and unlocked "quite easily", so if you need the financing plan stuff you get via T-Mobile, or anyone for that matter, it won't hurt too much. There's a thread around here to get permantely sim-unlocked with not too much wait and it worked for me. (Usually you have to wait 40 days and fully pay off phone for sim unlock). Then, there's the conversion to international OOS, which is a MUST. If the guide is too complicated, perhaps I could explain. After the conversion, you can simply unlock bootloader with "adb fastboot oem unlock" .
