restore from existing device - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Does the s8 have the native nougat restore functionality I.e coming from a Pixel? The g6 did not and forced you to use lg switch which was horrible

LG Bridge Backup does not support my G6

Hello to everyone,
I just wondering why LG software backup does not support my G6 (brand Vodafone).
I can check for updates etc etc but I can't do a backup of the device because software tell me that G6 is not supported!!
Someone can help me to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.
I have the same issue, any ideas?
Today I guess I found a solution.
I have installed via LGUP the firmware V10t (no brand), made 2 hard reset and magically LgBridge now support my device.
Unfortunately all the bloatware is still present but I am able to do a backup.
I don't know if some hard reset can solve the problem without flashing firwmare .

Thanks for the info but my device has only an issue with LGBridge Backup.
The solution already posted does not seem to work. Today LG Bridge continues to report my G6 as not supported by the software. :/ :/
I think the reason for mine not working is that I removed some of the LG bloatware, probably some of it needed for the communication with LG Bridge when connected to PC.
In my case, I don't think so because I debloated the device and Lg Bridge worked with no issue.

How to get total backup of s8 before upgrade

No-data loss upgrade possible ?

Hi
I'm a long time Ericsson and Sony user, LG G6 is in fact the first LG mobile I'm using.
I'm a bit confused with the LG UP tool and Uppercut (when compared to Sony's Flashtool).
My phone is P4P region, however it was shipped to me with V20c-EUR-XX firmware (3.18.71 kernel, OPR1.170623.032, PHONE_SW_FULL_VERSION LGH870AT-00-V20c-EUR-XX-AUG-17-2018+0).
It doesn't have any Play (P4P) operator branding etc.
Unfortunately OTA upgrade nor LG Bridge are unable to upgrade it to latest firmware. lg-firmwares.com suggested that I should use uppercut and LG UP software to patch it.
Question 1:
Which firmware should I use ? I assume that as long as it already has a generic firmware, any EU open firmware should work. Is my assumption correct ?
Question 2:
When flashing the selected firmware, am I obliged to do a 'wipe' or can I upgrade it without loosing personal data on the phone ? If I can upgrade, which options should be selected in LG UP tool ?
Question 3: How reliable is Backup and Recovery tool when it comes to making a backup before flashing and restoring from this backup after the upgrade ? I'd like to move to at least v20i firmware.
Thanks in advance.

Moto g4 Amazon XT1625 manual update?¿?

Friends I want to update my moto g4 xt1625 amazon prime to nougat, I am in compilation 139.64 and the update does not arrive, so I would like to do it manually, I already have the software ATHENE_AMZ_NPJS25.93-14-4_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC but I would like to know how to do it I flash without losing my data and through fastboot or RDSlite if the method works. The equipment is original, bootloader locked and not root, it is like new, it just needs that little push to bring it to android 7.0.
