I was not rooted and don't care about root. Yes, upgraded to D85130e from D83130d. I kept getting the annoying system notice and it would try to force the upgrade after a day or so. It always failed. Running the update through PC Suite worked without any issues. A day of using it and I haven't...

After a dozen times over the last two months of this update failing (OTA), I decided to try updating over the PC. I went to t-mobile site, it says to download LG Bridge to run update. After 10 minutes of downloading/installing, LG Bridge says this device (D851) cannot be managed with LG Bridge...

Yes, I ordered two, one each for the wife and I. They were new production, made in July 2016 IIFC. BTW, the charging cradle is also back in stock for the G3. Although not advertised, if you add a battery and the cradle, a discount is applied. $20 for both!

Unfortunately, not yet. It hasn't tried to install again. When tell it to check for updates, it says "your system is up to date." I guess I won't worry too much.

These are back in stock as of today. They were OOS of the charger cradle though. When I checked in June, they didn't have the batteries either, so that is a good sign. Hopefully they are fairly new production.

I get this notice, but get an error when it tries to install. Not rooted. Just running stock, unlocked with AT&T service. My wife's phone had the same problem. We are still showing security patch date of April and software D85130d. Any ideas what would cause this?

What carrier? Have you set APN settings if not on T-Mobile?

Solved, somewhat...by using Textra SMS app and changing APN setting to have IPv4/IPv6 selected. It works now.

I know I'm dredging up an old thread here, but I just started using an unlocked D851 with an AT&T sim card. I've put in the AT&T APN settings that are published by AT&T. I have wifi calling turned off (because it just gives an unsupported SIM error message) and I have this issue of not being...

More frustration. Kies says no updates, say it is current (NB1). Set clock ahead 1-day. Upgrade servers say it is current. I did format the SD card, twice in the phone. That made no difference. I have other cards, but they are in devices and have data/photos on them. I don't want to risk...

Guys, I'm pulling my hair out here. I somehow soft-bricked my phone after trying to un-root, and factory reset (about to sell the phone). I was able to Odin back to NB1 with no problems, now I'm trying to bring it current by putting files on SD card. However, every time I save one of the zip...

It's downloading on mine now. Hope it doesn't affect root. ---------- Post added at 08:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:44 PM ---------- It failed due to root I'm sure. Guess I'll have to disable until someone figures out how to apply it with root.

Well, I also let it run. Figured worst case, it would be rejected due to root. It ran, no errors, still on root (using Flashfire method). Stagefright detector now shows my device is safe. ---------- Post added at 09:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:38 AM ---------- If you're using...

Were you rooted with the Flashfire method?

I mentioned earlier, I only have the apk that someone gave me. Didn't purchase...
