Today I update to the 30O than immediately updated to 33R and now I am getting a constant system UI crashed pop-up. I have rebooted multiple times. Anyone else get this or know how to fix?
I'd clear the cache / fix permissions. Seems like you flashed something bad. Ultimately I'd recommend a clean install.
I think it might have had something to do with root. I flashed SU and removed a root app and all seems good.
I got this update a few days ago on my rooted Tmobile G2. Applying the update bricked my phone, as it was stuck in a recovery boot loop. Had to use this:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/ge...ricked-lg-g2-stuck-twrp-no-download-mode.html
to get it unstuck. Also, I tried the LG Support Tool to pull the update, but it was trying to download a 1.7gig update. I cancelled it before the install process in the fear that it would bork my phone.
Has anyone gotten the update to install successfully on their phone? (rooted)
I got the update but didn't run it. I learned my lesson last time. I'd love to know what it brings and how to install it though.

I'm there but can't figure out how to type in terminal command, can you help me out with this? I'm stuck in the recovery boot loop.
*EDIT* nevermind I figured it out after a factory reset though UGH!
I also got the update notification. I deleted 213MB upgrade file in cashe. It was in the root of cashe folder not in /cashe/foa/. I still get the stupid upgrade notification. How can we kill it? I have Titanium backup but software MUC is not an option on our phones.
OK found how to turn it off. Long press the update, App Info pops up, uncheck show notifications. Clear cashe and then reboot.
You can use stomproot (brute force method) to root this OTA. towelroot won't work. Before applying OTA, make sure custom recovery is replaced with stock recovery. Otherwise you will end up in boot loop.

Can confirm this works...thanks...autorec still works as well
If I have not installed a custom recovery, but just rooted the phone with AutoRec, will it soft brick my phone? Since I don't have TWRP or CWM, I would have no way to enter adb shell. So, it sounds like if I soft brick it, I'd have to restore factory settings to get it to boot, right? Are there any significant improvements to the 20g versus the 20e? Thanks.
I got this this morning and installed it...no issues whatsoever. Not sure what its for, but I got it.
Im stock unrooted.
I ended up going with the LG support tool method and installed the update (1.7gigs)...not really sure what the changed though. Root was lost, but I used Stump Root to get it back and everything is normal again. If anyone has the list of changes, plz post

Where exactly do I "long press the update? I deleted the update file from cache but can't find this App Info popup menu. Is it within the file explorer or the settings menu?

As long as you deleted the update you can safely press the install button...it may or may not actually power off...but if it doesn't just reboot after pressing and the notification will be gone...also to prevent it from downloading in the future you can dial 3845#*80X# and click wlan test then ota setting and click disable...you can re-enable by going through the same process and pressing enable...works for most variants
Mine tried to update: it rebooted, said it was installing while showing a progress bar and then it stopped and restarted. Nothing changed.
Does anyone know what this update is? Preliminary to the lollipop update?
Any idea why my nearly stock system didn't take the update. I am rooted with towel root and several apps disabled and frozen with Titanium.
Thanks

you press and hold on the update in the notification bar and app info will popup.

Same here, just rooted, no custom recovery and went through the update process. Completed update, still on e not upgraded to g
Plugged into LG Mobile Support Tool and updated that way, ran STUMPROOT and bruteforced. Rebooted and had root ^_^ Updated SuperSU binaries and rebooted once more and ran AutoRec. Now time to update everything again and remove the bloat they put back on.
Also to find the dialer code to update touch software, knock on isn't working. :silly:

From what I saw on androidpolice it includes in-flight wifi stuff and some patches. Probably blocking some of the older rooting methods
Took the update last night, i was rooted with stock recovery but it went through just fine. Now when i try to root via StumpRoot it says my device is rooted before i even do anything. I don't have root access though.
Anyone else experience this problem? I've already tried a factory reset but still no-go.
this "update" seems absolutely useless. however, it could be nice to get a flashable radio from it.

I had the same issues and figured it out!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/help/fix-trouble-putting-download-mode-t2979318
when i am trying to do that its says ( NO UPGRADE ITEMS TO FIX ) any idea guys.............
I flashed the latest firmware with ODIN (N915TUVS2DPG2_N915TTMB2DPG2_TMB.zip). Rooted and working well. Began getting a firmware update message to install the same firmware. Asked to install now or later. Actually tried to install it and it just failed and went back to normal. A couple days later it would pop up again.
Using titanium, I froze the following:
Security policy updates 4.1.46
Software update 1.5.04
Software update 3.1.12
I then wiped my cache only in TWRP. I no longer get the firmware download message, however I get one minor notification that shows up when I go to the phones "settings". Notification says "Software updates. Tap here to update the firmware to the latest version and use the latest features." If you tap it, it does nothing. I can close it but it will show up again. It also shows up under "About" in the device settings. It doesn't seem to be affecting anything so far. Just a minor annoyance. Not clear why it is happening at all.
I am on the T-mobile version of firmware. Anyone else experiencing this? Thank you.

Could be because Samsung likes rat ware.
The security could be getting used to aid in O/S updates.
Given that you've frozen them and they could be tied together .............

I am also experiencing this. Have you found a solution? I know it's an old thread, but it's very annoying. TIA

I have noticed that things "frozen" by Ti backup still can have an effect.
Example I run Nova Launcher and lock down Samsung's launcher.
I then start having weird problems including restarts.
Since I'm rooted, I back up the system and remove the Samsung launcher.
Much better.
Since I upgraded to 8.1 touching anything in the notification drawer crashes System UI. Restarts with next screen on, but I can't do anything via the notification drawer, which is irritating.
I root (and usually theme) my phone (Pixel) - before upgrading I disabled and uninstalled the theme. Tried installing the OTA with flashfire, lost root, dirty flashed the full system image for 8.1 via fastboot. The system UI problem started immediately; I have since rooted the phone by flashing a Magisk created patched boot image, as you would expect the crashing system ui persisted, but it was definitely there before rooting.
I haven't themed since the upgrade and have tried everything suggested here:
http://www.blogtechtips.com/2017/02/28/fix-unfortunately-system-ui-stopped-working-android/
except factory reset. In summary that included reset app preferences, disable all non system apps that use the notification drawer, return to default pixel launcher, clear cache for system UI. The problem persists.
I don't want to wipe my phone atm because rl is busy, can anyone suggest another fix? It doesn't seem to be a widespread problem, but has anyone else encountered it?
TIA
I was surprised to see my Pixel 3 offer an OTA update, since I'm rooted with Magisk.
However, now there is an update offered in my notifications suggesting "restart to install".
Given the issues reported in the "Stuck in Bootloop when installing Magisk" I don't want to install this update yet.
Will the phone install the update with _any_ restart, or only if restart is initiated from the notification?
If any restart will trigger it, how can I prevent that behavior?
Go into developer options and turn off auto system updates. You will still receive update notifications but they won't download or install automatically. When you see the update notification, swipe half way to disable all future notifications.
