Everything is working smooth and battery is better now. The only issue is some removed features. But overall, its a nice experience with the one ui.
Hopefully, after my warranty runs out, ill try root and other mods. But the stock experience is so good right now. :good:

BATTERY IS BETTER now? Really? Updated it 2 hours ago and you say it )

You can update, but the hack is detected. A message is shown on the display and prevents the phone from using. You just have to remove the sdsim.

March update available for H870DS/S

March security update available for my H870S and also for H870DS. Write your impressions about the update!
On my h870, still on the January patch, I think this is bad news because it still pushes Oreo, it would be better to work to give Oreo rather than the latest security patch but in 7.0 :/
Hell yeah, DS TWN/CN stucks in October. Until October I thought, wow they are pretty fast with Updates, but then they stopped -.-
@Windforce0511, Is this v10hi ?
March 1st security patch
Don't know what are the improvements
Guess it's the security patch only. I wonder why these patches are so huge. Last two update were around 800-900 MB
Every region got updates for the DS this year except twn-hkg. They quit updates for china because they left the market? If it is i flash the indian over twn and done. Great phone. But it Will be my first and last lg, if it go like that with lg.

This update is really messing up the battery. Even with everything greenified the battery simply zooms down. This wasn't the case before the update.
And yes the phone hangs. It's been thrice since the update yesterday

Greenify have no use with 7.0 battery saving. I did the test months ago when i found a topic if it was usefull or not to use greenify over android 7.0. It drained my battery more and i dont use it anymore.

No issues here. Maybe some rogue app is acting up. You can factory reset to make sure the OS is clean
Nothing on my TWN H870DS yet. Still stuck with October 17 security update. [emoji20]
Got a v10v update 3 days ago. Phone became a bit more stable on battery usage, that 4G+ icon came up and stock wallpapers from all color variants of the phone came up. Just some stray observations

No root for f700 from nougat and up this update is official from lg not custom rom
How's the new camera? Are there manual and automatic modes for both video and photos? And does it have the possibility to switch off the stabilization (useful for long exposures on a tripod)?
Can anyone make a video of oreo on their phone and post it online? Youtube maybe. I would like to see the new interface, settings menu notifications, caller ui, messages etc. Would appreciate it.
Yea would be nice to see what us H850 owners are missing
Man I'm jealous on you. I am still waiting for oreo like it's Jesus. I can't wait to get it
Any H850 users that have got it?

OnePlus 7t pro McLaren 5g TMobile update 10.0.27!!

There is an update for 10.0.27 just saw and installed this morning! Go to system updates and check yours.
Here is a screenshot.
slightly puzzled, update downloaded/installed by itself overnight. good to know being unlocked doesn't affect updates.
Have you modded at all?
no
Unless you unlock the bootloader there won't be issues. I've unlocked Sim but not rooted so I get updates too. I don't see a need currently since there's no alternative ROM

Does not really matter to me to have Titanium any longer because the likelihood of phone complete malfunction is very low. And I use duckduckgo browser to block most ads. Most apps now are smart enough to fail if they detect adaway modified host file so on. I actually am glad I do not have to try and trick my phone so that Google Pay and other things work when they fail if rooted. I also am worried if I touch anything, the 5G will stop working. I really want to be able to get that signal.

Yeah - I got this phone to get band 71 as well, as my European S9+ doesn't either, so TMo coverage outside of large urban areas sucks on that phone.

I thought when you unlocked, it wiped, including a system file needed for updates. If that's not the case, would un-rooting allow updates ?

Please do also mention the method to recreate the bug along with your software version and region so I can verify that it's not just your device which has the issue.
Current stable release:

Known bugs:
1. UI glitches when running Netflix or Amazon prime videos
PDEM30_11_C.08 (China)
Known bugs: N/A

I guess its known bug in android 11.
Bug: if i turn on aod and always finger print on,then connent phone to car head unit it flicker aa on car head unit and not work properly.
Solution: either keep screen always on when phone is in aa mode or keep turned off both aod and fingerpribt off.
I have turned aod off since i dont use it much.
Other than this annoying bug didnt see any issues.waiting for stable cos11 and fix on android auto

Better wait for ota in your region. The rom includes settings for region carriers which may not be supported if you try a different rom from another region.

I've got the Prosper case from Amazon, very good quality. Tempered glass is still not delivered, will try and let you know. I've heard that all screen protectors of OnePlus 8 Pro work for the Find X2.
The loading in ColorOs 11 update page takes a minute but it loads for me.
