Well, as that conversation is private and dont have any official status, you cant say anything properly, yet they werent even answering in the past when we were asking if they will get pie or not. But as far as the expert says we will get a notification it can be true
I wonder how we will get a notification, maybe from members app? Also i want to remind you that he didnt say they will be in beta along 9 series its still unclear but as he says they will its the thing to lookout for

I just had a conversation with a guy from samsung uk. Here it is
Cant trust one and another... one says something other says something diffrent

Ok. So if we will not get the beta for S8 & S8+, will there be a chance to get the beta unofficially? By sideloading a Pie update build or something the same as the S9 and S9+ is getting now from leaks?

Wouldnt think so, as oreo and pie is very diffrent and it would be easier to wait for it. Even if there was a leak to use it, maybe we could who knows

No feature added , just feels little smoother. Had issue with two beeps of locking sound, now haven't seen that. Battery looks slightly improved but wait can't judge it on 3 hrs of usages , after 2-3 cycles it may be clear. Lastly the updated android security patch of April . Will revert back if anything weird happens but nothing till now everything good.

Thanks for the great feedback. Still downloading the KDZ file. Is the interface the same as V20C? I mean, I am hoping it might be the same as in G5.

Imported from Thailand, buying in India was too main stream . I also got H810 single sim variant. Update may be on the way, hope so.
Updated now to V20E. Let's see what will be the performance after weeks of usage.

A bit off topic: Since u have imported ur device, will you still get LG India warranty. Asking this because the so called "bootloop" issue is spreading like forest fire amongst the G4 users.
As for V20e update part I will be informing as soon as the update arrives for my H818N. :laugh:

Bootloop is seen for older handset, my older one is H810 and got my H818 is a week old. The batch after Jan 2016 has got newer version of motherboard so no at risk I think so and no warranty for imported handsets.

Have yet to see Indians complain about it. 30K G4's imported into the country, where are they ?
When i went through a russian thread and used google translate i counted about 25. Out of how many. thousands ?
The bulk of people complaining are single sim. And the poll thread showed they were concentrated around the early builds.

its a phased roll out. You dont roll out an update everywhere at the same time. Roll it out in one country, then wait & watch. Ok ? move to the next country and so on.

ok, so its just a security update, to April.
Still 6.0, we're waiting for 6.0.1, that is where the battery improvements will be.
kernel still on 3.10, it goes to 3.18 in 6.0.1 i suppose.

S6 users were crying they did not get MM until march.
The G4 got MM in Dec.
Difference is the S6 got 6.0.1, we're still on 6.0
It takes work. Be patient.
Save your prayers for N.
The open question is the security updates. How long will LG keep those up.

Sent from my SM-N920S using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Now hold on there man...why AOD should by all means be absent of this update? How come they're able to build a nougat ROM without including it? Is there for S7 and S7edge . No way this may be call an update without it .
Otherwise if course I can live very well without it ? but ranting make us feel better.
sent from my N920C
It will be no AOD on Note5! Samsung always did like this.
Why does everyone always expect Samsung or any OEM for that matter to bring key features (IE. AOD) from latest flagships to older devices? Lol Its what separates one device from the other. It's what keeps a business in business. Otherwise nobody would buy new devices and eventually would go out of business because sales would fall.

Even if they don't include aod we'll have it in custom roms anyway. I know it sucks for ones who are completely stock though.

Rumor

It will be true that tomorrow it will be released for LG G6 H870-- 10 may -2018
Any source???
I read this recently on Reddit, but the guy did not put any sources either..
I think we just have to wait a few days / weeks, there are two versions that were updated last days, there is no reason that it does not happen quickly on others !
So just relax the ass, and enjoy life while waiting ?

may not be so privileged .. for the v30 there was two updates, one in 8.0 without ThinQ, and one in 8.1 with ThinQ in the same week, just depended on the model..

Thats right. Each time you update your phone, you make it different, its like having new phone. To develop a ROM, its needed a core or code given by samsung. As a part of a planned obsolescence, Samsung shares less often such code, because they want to sell the new phones.

Hey guys,
now that the S10 / 10+ doesnt include any kind of Notification LED, i hope some Dev can create an App, where (in case of notfications) 1 or 2 Pixel around the Front Cam are lighten up.

It doesn't stay on however so you can have a peak on the phone from distance and know you have new notifications.

To address "from what I've seen", I have Verizon and I don't have any update as of this morning.
To address if the update is in the works, take a look at the article I posted a few replies before you quoted myself, plus many more, directly on Samsung's forums with an employee stating there will be an update in the future...
I am also in that forum man and the person who informed about the update is not a Samsung employee. He's just like us. So, that does not create a new hope.

The edge lighting around the front camera circles it in the oval shape during facial recognition and that's the only time I've seen it on so far.
