LG G6 (H870 - Europe) : how to block PIE updates and still update security issues ? - LG G6 Questions and Answers

LG G6 is a great smartphone for taking pictures ... and a few other things like using it as a standard phone.
Mine is working fine on android 8.0 (Oreo) EU stock, with bootloader legally unlocked and the infamous lock screen.
From what I read here and there, it is nonsense to update it to Android Pie (9.0). No gain and many pains !
In other words, I intend to keep it under Oreo 8 and try to update it for security patches !
a) how to lock updates to Android PIE ?
b) how to keep updating security patches ?
Is this Mission "impossible" ?
For your info, I know there are alternative ROMS, but from what I read, none works as well as a STOCK ROM ...

I think Pie is no longer supported at all and there weren't too many security patches for Oreo so far.

So after 36 months everything stops ?
No solution ?

So Google and Brands invented the OS that really sets the game ? 2 years and bye bye ?
I'm not a Go-Go Buyer !

It would be fine with me if i'm wrong. And there would be a third big update in the form of Android 10 and if they still release security patches for 9.
Mine is from May, Android 9 of course,so there still is some support.
(and i mistook Oreo and Pie in my post from May, nothing beats plain numbers...)

Thanks "leCorbusier" for your optimistic message.
Android 10 LG STOCK for LG G6 ? You must be dreaming !
Besides this, just remember that I want to block Pie update (check OP) and still get security updates, but for Oreo !!!

G6 received PIE update after 1 year, when PIE was released. Pie update for G6 and May security pacth was last update. LG has bad software support. Forget about Android 10 for G6 from LG. Only way to get Android 10 is custom ROMs

I understand your concern, security updates are more important to me. This is why I use custom roms. But it's also my experience that there are definitely custom roms running android 10 that are way better than LG's stock roms, especially Oreo. I don't know where you read the contrary, unless you have a model that isn't well supported.
Honestly, though, the bonus features are just a bonus to me. Having up-to-date security updates are the most important to me. I buy LG phones after they are discounted, and also only after I see the community begin to support specific models, since I know LG is awful about support.

Note 4 N910H will get update Nougat 7.0 Official??

Hello morning..
I am verry happy for join in this forum

i am from Indonesia Southeast asia.. i have Note 4 official N910H single SIM n No 4G
my question .. will Note 4 get update Nougat 7.0 Official?
thank u for information...
good luck everybody
No. This is extremely unlikely, as the model is more than two years old now. It was unlikely that Note 4 received update to MM at all.

already struggling with mm , still update nougat ?
According to Samsung's policy, flagship devices are likely to have only 2 years of software updating while our device has just passed that amount of life time, thus, no more major Android update, security patches may still be delivered. (Note 4 has many major Android updates over time, from 4.4 KitKat to the 6.0.1 Marshmallow). Again, this is the biggest problem with Android where software updating is limited, especially for non flagship devices.
From now on, our only hope of getting latest Android version is through unofficial way, CM14, AOSP are our best friends, we only need to give our devs a great support and they'll help our phone to survive one more day. Be optimistic guy

Thank u bro... its very good information for me .... thansks..:good:
We won't be receiving N officially, but we will probably get some version of cm14 (as advised by @yashthemw)
But I also strongly think we will start to see s7 ports of N as beta N just dropped for them over the last couple of days.
So wouldn't be surprised if we see a ported version to our device some time over coming months.
I'm gutted we lost our AICP maintainer ? would love to have seen AICP N running, MM is running buttery smooth with great battery life for me. But we need to sort out our cm14 branch first.
i think so

Finally V10 got nougat ( 7.0 ) update next is g4

Nougat update for Turkey is now Available,Detail; source Langue only TURKİSH.
https://www.lgdestek.net/h960tr-lg-v10-android-7-0-nougat-turkiye-guncellemesi-35121/
English translete;
Today the LG V10[H960TR] 32 and 16 models with H960TR and H960ATR Android 7.0 Nougat update is released. The Nougat update, which began last week in South Korea, was later distributed in Hong Kong devices. The LG V10 Turkey models are starting to get Android 7.0 update via LG Bridge. The software version distributed with the LG V10 V30a version number includes the new android version.
LG has made a statement over the past few months and has reported that the Android 7.0 update for the LG V10 will be released in May and June. The update was stopped very late by LG. With the new software update, the LG V10 comes with new features. Among the most notable features are theme features and improvements to the interface. The smartphone has also received the most up-to-date security patch. Updated on security level as 01.05.2017.
Another innovation that came with the update was the update made to the fingerprint reader. It will be enough to take your finger over the power button inside the LG V20. By Berk koca
Because they have released Nougat for V10 almost at the end of the June which is the last month of Q2, we will probably get Nougat sometimes in September as the last month of Q3.
It's better than nothing ?

Apart from the security update and improved doze, there isn't really much to upgrade for if you've installed xposed. I might skip this update to save the trouble of installing all the tweaks again. It also avoids another chance of getting the bootloop

theres new uix. 5.0+ i believe. theme to make all dark. people saying smoother ui on V10 and less heat. also better battery.
itll bootloop even if you dont touch it. if its going to. i used to flash daily... and redo all tweaks. always do fresh installations. takes me hours..
I've also heard it improves performance but decreases photo quality. New UX, new camera UI, native theme support, doze on the go, vulkan API. For some more important it will fix camera and few other things in AOSP/CM based Nougat ROMs. I will most likely roll back to v20g-EUR-XXX lock bootloader update and unlock again I don't care about xposed, for me it was good in ICS/JB era but not in Nougat where there are hundreds of custom ROMs like RR, DU or AOSPA

Most likely G4 will get Nougat first. I don't think xposed will get back. I met thing I've learnt for all those years that xposed only ruins performance and is cause of lots of FCs and all that crap. I remember getting xposed on this tablet. I could customise few more things but when I uninstalled it, I felt like I am using newer tablet. Xposed was slowing it down and ruining my battery life. It's time to move on and bury xposed once for good

Nokia X6, now 6.1 plus with SKUID CN, still on 8.1... shall I try Pie?

Hi,
I got a Nokia X6 TA-1099 in September 2018, with Custom Oreo Rom (locked!) and rooted.
I unlocked it, loaded the Global Oreo one for Nokia 6.1 Plus few months ago and prompted to upgrade to Pie 3.45 right after. Once I did it, I noticed screen issues (much large screens, going out of the edges basically). One of the members of this forum told me that this happens when the SKUID is CN instead of WW. I checked and mine was CN. The phone is also recognised as TA-1103 now.
since I need a locked phone for banking, certified etc... I downgraded to Oreo Security Patch August 2018 and locked the phone "forever". I then disabled the automatic updates.
do you know if newer releases of Pie (like V3.54H which I am prompted about) will "fit" my screen properly even though I have SKUID CN? Or shall I just wait for Android Q that perhaps does not have this issue?
I am worried I will need to downgrade and I won't be able to do it anymore.
Thanks!
The SKUID will always trouble you. Because starting with Pie. parts of the OS rely on the SKU to enable/disable certain services. You're better off with either of the two:
1. Be on CN ROM and keep your CN SKUID.
2. Be on WW ROM but change your SKUID to WW.
3. Stay on Oreo (bonus lol)
The broken Status bar will continue to bug you when on Pie with CN SKUID. Also, some system features will remain missing/broken, including double-tap to wake.
Hi
Can I change the SKUID to WW now that I am on Oreo 8.1 August 2018 patch?
I am not finding any info to confirm this, but I appears that Nokia is now allowing unlock.
I would like to:
- change SKUID to WW
- relock
- upgrade to Pie and follow all the future automatic updates
Do you think this is possible?
Thanks for your help as always.
Nokia does not allow unlock. You will need to resort to the paid methods.

Is it possiable that i still need CN SKUID(for my wifi and signal) but with Lineage OS experience?

Any way to remain on stock, but get the security updates?

I've use ROMs in the past, but never with the Essential phone. In fact my phone has run so well, I've never even factory reset it a single time, let alone put a ROM on it. But with Essential gone, I need a way to keep my phone secure.
I'm wondering what the best way to keep stock android (nothing wrong with stock) but allow myself to get the latest android updates as they come out. In looking at the ROMs there still seems to be some issues with bugs, and since this phone is my daily driver, I'd like it to be as stable as possible.
So is there:
1) A way to get the PH-1 on stock, but still get the important security updates somehow?
2) A rom available (even if android 9) that works for PH-1 that would be super stable but also get all new security updates?
Thanks in advance for any help.

I could have sworn I saw something that basically said you can download the latest stock version (that includes security updates) and flash it every time there is a new update. But I guess I could have misunderstood?

That was the case until Essential went out of business - you could do OTA updates, or download and flash yourself. The stock security updates were only provided by Essential, and the Feb 2020 update was the last one for this phone...

No way to stay on stock & get security updates (well you will get some direct from Google ie the Google Play System Update, the last one shown lower down this page
https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/2020-03-01
and can be found in your settings under security, but its only a fraction of patches)
That means your best option is probably the Android 11 GSI when it's out of Developer Preview in a July (?) and hope it's bug free, else Lineage etc .... not that you want custom roms, sorry.

Basically I'm looking for something safe and stable, whether it is ROM or otherwise. Right now I'm stable, but not safe. So you think my best bet is move to Lineage (to become safe) and then switch to the GSI when it is out of developer preview (and stable)?
From what I have read and asked here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/essential-phone/development/rom-evolution-x-4-1-69-t4073153
This ROM will give you what you are asking for as far as regular security updates are concerned. I have been waiting for Lineage to release an "OFFICIAL" version of Android 10 for our PH-1's but so far nothing. Also I would not mind going on Android 11 but then I do not think that will get monthly security updates either so I am thinking about trying this Evolution ROM out.... I have never worked with a phone with A/B slots so that is my only concern but after reading all the threads I am starting to understand how that works.
Hope this info helps you out.

I'm on EvoX the only thing tht is not t working very well, is tht if u fast forward or rewind on Netflix ur phone reboots, hopefully fixed next update, but I'm happy with this ROM, the touch lag is almost non existence for some reason, glad they managed to fix tht. Also L1 certification is still there. The 360 camera workes better in this Rom for some reason. The best part is the customization though, so much

Very strange that no one has started a new thread in the Custom ROM section about this... (This being an official release version of Lineageos 17.1) you would think it would be bigger news? There is still only an Unofficial thread... strange..
Anyway IronRoo let me know what you decide to do and how it goes... I am still on the fence as my PH-1 is currently working perfect on stock 10 but it is of course on the Feb 29th security patch... plus I haven't done a custom ROM install since my LG G5 but I hear it is like riding a bike... lol :silly::fingers-crossed:

For LOS, I think we should wait until their server is back, and few more releases come out.
LineageOS 17.1 for Essential is so new, only couple releases, and still in updating state.

Yes, many will agree, though I'm OK with giving it a go but I need to buy a new high quality USB cable as kid damaged my Samsung one and have only a cheap 6" one which I'm not sure I trust to flash without bricking phone.

Just did a quick websearch and a few have tried flashing it reddit and here on the 16 thread, and it's suggested wait for next release (first recovery had issue, but now fixed, but next release of ROM should have a few fixes & Lineage build servers are down so not sure when new release will drop)

LG G6 (H870) - Could someone create and provide SECURITY PATCHES for OREO ?

Could someone create and provide SECURITY PATCHES for OREO and for LG G6 ?
Please, if you don't know what you are talking about, don't answer this message !
(i.e. answers such as update to PIE (android 9 by LG) or even to android 10 as "LeCorbusier" says.
As every ADULT knows, after 2-3 years a top-notch phone such as LG G6 is not dead !
Mine, at least, in 2020 works very well with OREO, and my only problem is getting security patches for OREO (android 8) and STOP updates for PIE !
I don't need PIE OS (Android 9 by LG), and its so-called improvements !
All I need is "security patches for OREO (android 8) and apps patches for CAMERA and other things similar.
Therefore, I suggest DEVS to think about what they are truly doing : MANTAIN a system of consumerism that is void (such as brands), or help people not throw away phones that still work perfectly well !
Please, help me and help millions of people not over consuming Phones !
1. Oreo is outdated and no one is willing to spend so much time to develop security patches for Oreo. Because it's hard to integrate with LGE framework. You could try to use custom rom with newer security patch
2. Or try find developer and pay him. For a custom rom
