There may be a simpler way than trying to unroot and accept an OTA firmware update. Look for the your firmware update here: https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h850-firmwares/ Download the latest KDZ file for your G5 and flash it with LGUP. Since you'll now be on stock G5 firmware, you'll need to flash twrp-3.1.1-0-h850 via fastboot and then root via TWRP. I install all my firmware updates this way and it has always worked for me.

The G5 firmware at the link is arranged by geographical region and carrier. My G5 is a Great Britain one from EE, so I use the EEE KDZ files for it. If you don't know your region, you can browse through build.prop for the information.

LGUP has always worked for me when flashing KDZ files. You can read all about LGUP on autoprime's All-in-One thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/how-to/info-autos-g5-thread-t3350648

Why?
Is there anyone that can confirm a successful update to ICS and show us some screenshots?
Is there a way for us to get our ICS before they'll push it to our region? Can there be problems installing this zip on an other region? If that is possible.
I Tried to change my region to Mexico with all in one tool and i got a update notification for an older firmware version... but i don't want to risk to loose root forever... decrypting, costomize and resigning with All in One tool didn't work and i'm not able to flash the update with root...
As far as I know no one revived this update really. The only sign for ICS is the broken link in the upper right of the Sony select web app in some countries like Mexico.
Was this a fake post?
As soon as no one confirm a successful download or provide some screenshots & a functional link it seems it was an early bird.
The German blog mobiflip.de posted this as a news. Lol

No, I don't think so. When you look at selectApp-Website in Mexico there is the notification for ICS-Update. So it must come very very soon.
Condi posted a tutorial, how to do the update:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24563264&postcount=228
But how to download the OTA-Update and how to decrypt it after region change?
I think like the same way as before with the aio change region, use download zip in aio and decrypt + root.

Ok, so first I need to run "Run OTA ZIP autodownloader"?! And then? What options do I need to select?
First you have to modify your region to Mexico and than download ota.
I know But after I downloaded the rom through the script, how to decrypt the ROM? Does the Script also download the OTA when there is no Notification for an update? A lot of questions
No it doesn't. The download happens on the device. I you have installed rescue backdoor you have to modify your build prop again as condi says.

Thank you for sharing kdz firmware for this model can you please share your experience if u already had flash this file I need to ask one more question this is been said on website there.
Please note that it works on LG K371 with v10a or v10b firmware only.
Please do not try to down grade the OS of your LG K371 phone.
And My phone already has latest k37110h version so I'm afraid to trying because I might end bricking my device then later waiting for LG to release latest version of kdz for able to unbrick restore to stock the reason I wanted to downgrade so I can try some root method to see if we can able get root access for this device
please let me know what you think about this ...

k37111n
Does anyone have a stock rom dump (kdz or tot) for the LG K371 for version k37111n?
I now have a play unit and have had some interesting times dealing with the hardware boot lock and need to reflash the firmware, but it wont let me flash old firmware. Any assist, or ideas on how to dump from another k371 unit, would be awesome possum
I dont try it I just see a post who some one was needing and i try to help him
IF you haven't found a solution, you can send your phone to LG, it should still be under warranty. They will reflash it for you.
Thanks for kdz
Because lg bridge does not let update this particular model, it tells me that software can not be verified. I have version 10b
KDZ is of no use unless you are on that version. LGUP trips antirollback if you try flashing it. I have searched far and wide across the web and so far only found this file, a handful of update .up FOTA files and an actual dump made from infinity box. However none work and i cant use the dump because fastboot wont work on the phone!
Does anyone have any other kdz's or am i going to have to create one?

[H850] Rooted, TWRP v10 to Nougat, how to do it?

Hi,
It should be simple, but I'm confused what to do and which version to install... I have EU, not branded H850 v10e. Rooted with TWRP so official update by Bridge or OTA isn't an option. I wanna move to Nougat, but how? I can't find any Nougat zip to use in TWRP, so I figure only option is to use LGUP. But what version should I install? All I can see are branded versions...
Could someone help me and provide a simplest and safest method to move to Nougat?
Also, TWRP and root isn't problematic in N, same procedure as on MM?
Thanks in advance,
Mark

You could try using TWRP to flash autoprime's zips from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/stock-h850-20a-eu-rom-flashable-zips-t3506514 and follow the OP instructions for rooting. You could also use LGUP to flash H85020a_00_OPEN_EU_OP_1030.kdz that autoprime has also posted at the link above. Just make sure you have the Nougat TWPR installed: twrp-3.0.2-1-h850.img, which can be found here https://dl.twrp.me/h850/
Thanks! For some reason I couldn't find this flashable N zip.... But on the weekend I already switch to N with LGUP

i could use it too. i want to root my lg v10 and need the backup firmware in case something goes wrong. did you ever root yours, and how did u do it? i see tutorials on using a bunch of b.s, but from my understanding, this phones bootloader is already unlockable. so, wouldnt fastboot oem unlock, then flash twrp and supersu work? thanks

Installed V30c from here with no problems, using LGUP.
Used it to recover my phone from brick.
I was rooted and custom recovery on V30c and accidentally accepted OTA for v30d.
Then I was stuck on bootloop in TWRP. I flashed stock recovery and that was it.
Then I lost root and wanted to relock bootloader. After relocking, it was a very big mess.

Hello, i can see many different Region options to download. I can download from TMF, TMI, TMO or TMZ. Did you use TMO which i understand could stand for T-Mobile?
Ok, i ended up downloading 30D from Android File Host and it worked fine.
H90130d is the latest one....

Is there a new or more up-to-date method to root and flash fw on Mate 20 Pro?

Hi,
Does anyone know if the Mate 20 Pro rooting and flashing the fw guides here are still working and should still be used? I do have a code to unlock my bootloader, but it appears that the guides, and the software recommended to install/use in those guides are either outdated or no longer accessible.
I'm kind of reluctant to follow the guides to root and flash my fw, that my risk the chance of bricking my phone. Does anyone know of any guides that still work today?
I'm currently on 9.0.0.265(C636E10) that was flashed by the previous owner through FunkyHuawei. The phone was purchased from a Canadian carrier (Rogers) and the fw should be associated to the C792 region. I would like to root and re-flash my fw back to the C792 region and start receiving OTA updates, but I'm unable to find a complete and up-to-date guide to help me achieve this.
Any help from you experts is greatly appreciated.

service firmware also updates cust and preload specific to your region.
Thanks! I was able to successfully update my fw to 9.1 and back to my region by using this method.
