Finally!!! New KDZ for LG V10 H900 AT&T

[Sarang Azhar]

worried soul

its is a kdz & its real.... i successfully upgraded my ATT h900 from the same kdz..

everything went smooth & error free although my phone was rooted on 5.1. i used LG UP & used the "Upgrade" option..
nothing was deleted or overwrite either.. everything remained intact.. i say go for it..

sadly.. no change in interface at all..ditto same as 5.1.1... all behind the scene upgrades apart from Wifi calling

zahid bro will u kindly tell me the complete process that how u used lg up to do that because lg up is not recognizing my device . i have lg v10 h900 and im unable to update it . Plz help me out and tell me step by step process to use lg up .

 

[zahidb]

do you have LG drivers & adb drivers installed on ur pc?

also you may have to enable developer mode.. by repeatedly clicking "build no#" in ur phone settings

u r welcome.. & happy for you..

That's what I have done to my V10. I even posted in that thread. So basically enable tethering when having root on Android 5.1.1 prior to updating to Android 6.0, and once upgraded to Android 6.0, the unlimited tethering would still be enabled but the hack itself is not inaccessible due to losing root for updating to Android 6.0. Am I understanding it correctly?

Edit: So I decided to go through with updating my V10 to Android 6.0 using the KDZ mentioned in this thread. Initial thoughts is that yes, finger print sensor works much faster. I also notice that the volume is a bit louder than usual. Perhaps improved responsiveness with the OS going through menus. So far, I like it. Also, the tethering works without complaining that such tethering needs to be registered. Therefore, it looks like updating to Android 6.0 doesn't modify the settings that enabled tethering undetected in Android 5.1.1. I don't mind losing root so long as I continue to have unlimited tethering.

Thanks for letting me know as I wouldn't have updated to Android 6.0 for fear of losing unlimited tethering on AT&T.

Use LG UP.

i want to update my Unlocked AT&T LG V10 to the latest update H90021W. i tried using lg bridge but it prompts me to update from the update center from the phone itself. when i try to update from the phone, it shows "Device is up to date".

my question is that if i update via flashing the firmware file, will my device be relocked by AT&T? i live outside USA and Etisalat as my carrier. i have already downloaded the .kdz file for v21w software. i worried whether the device will get relocked by AT&T. help me out guys.

also i am getting a pretty poor battery out of my V10. wondering whether the new update would give me a better battery life.

I actually did that before I posted this question. I searched through the AT&T LG V10 forum and I also searched on google and can only find the h90021w update. If anyone can confirm if I even need to update to H90021v before updating to h90021w I would really appreciate your time.

Thanks!

You should be able to update using the kdz without an issue.

I am experiencing severe standby drain on my V10. Was at 24% when I went to sleep and after 8 hrs, I suddenly woke-up and sae that the phone was switched off at 0%.

I am experiencing such standby drain for the last 2 weeks from the day I purchased my V10. Help me out. Have always been a Sony fan. This is my first LG smartphone 📱 and I am not at all convinced with its battery time.:crying::crying::crying:

Your clear to jump to h90021w my phone is running h90021y just fine, which is the build after 21w. Still love and hate this phone though.

Canadian trying to upgrade AT&T V10

As I'm in Canada, I cannot connect to AT&T servers to get the upgrades; either to h90021w, or Android 6.0.1. How can I upgrade these files (If necessary)

I have h90021v and Android 6.0 (obviously, I don't have root)

I hear people say to use KDZ files. I don't know how to do that.

Download kdz from https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7FrzLAFlRrvd2N2bU5BSjljRGs/view?usp=drive_webhttp:// then use LG UP to upgrade to h90021w.

Exactly what Affangta said. Just flash the kdz, but triple check that its for your model. Your v10 will probably be different from mine due to Canadian carriers and towers.

LG Up: https://mega.nz/#!JtRFkD4Y!u3QgNNaUc-q9w86bBYVoLa9bDBIKA4IZAC57m3rFcsI

Drivers: http://lgusbdriver.com/windows/lg-usb-driver-v4-1-1-0

 

[Fifen]

update worked fine. however, I had to download the common folder from here https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6pQCizpnzoEeU5QcS05MExuZXM/view
And then move that folder to C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model.
hopefully, that helps someone who ran into any issues.

does anyone know what the update brought? I updated from H90021v and so far I don't notice any differences

New Work around maybe????

Has anyone tried this work around that I came across while researching how to root this phone?

I came across this DIY tonight androidsage com/2016/03/17/root-att-lg-v10-h900-easily-tot-file/ just put a "dot" inbetween androidsage and com to get to the website

Seems all the right files are there, and I have installed the LGUP and been able to get into Downloader mode, but I am afraid to continue until I can confirm that it works. Anyone out there give it a go yet?

I installed the H90021w with LGUP . It was very easy. I didn't realize that it was not the rooted version I downloaded. I downloaded the rooted version and tried to install it with LGUP. I would not let me. kept saying the size was smaller than what was already installed on the phone.
I have been having battery life problems the last 2 weeks. That is why I started down this road. I was going to reset the phone back to stock. I ordered new batteries but it did not fix the problem. If I hard reset the phone will it go back to H90010h (what it was before the upgrade)? If it will revert back then I could install the root version after the reset.

Well I did find one thing wrong. I can not send MM text messages.

I too have been having loads of issues with the battery. I actually bought an extra battery and external battery so I have one at all times, instead of walking around with a portable charger and cord hanging out of my pocket all night. So what ended up happening?

Nothing yet. I was waiting on some feedback from the more experienced folks on here.
Also The MM text issue was fixed when I swapped the battery.
