######################################
This is the OFFICIAL v29A from LG
######################################

No modifications , clean stock v29a directly extracted from the beta from Poland.

No screenshots needed. This is the stock Official Nougat from LG. If you want to see how it is, you only have to Google it.

  • Stock LG Recovery
  • Stock LG Kernel
  • OTAs

Download stock Nougat for H815 here:
Android File Host
Mirror link from @steadfasterX
v29A [keeps TWRP and LAF on flash] from @steadfasterX

Below is the bootloader and modem only flashable zip​
20p bootloader stack with 29A modem

**This is not a ROM. This is the whole firmware upgrade to v29A , untouched, coming directly from LG.
I made this flashable file as an alternative to the v29A KDZ that we never got.

Installation procedure:
This is a Full OS Upgrade for all of us coming from MM.
>> Clean Flash << when coming from MM or from Lineage|AOSP based roms !
- Reboot to TWRP
- Advance Wipe -> /data , dalvik-cache, /cache
- Install Nougat
- Reboot.
its absolutely crucial to take your time and backup with either the latest TWRP BETA release
or the DLM Backup method or even both for the paranoid ones



Many thanks to the member
@keriox who shared the files with us.

Yes I was also reporting about that, unknown baseband but it still works fine!
Anyway, for the people who flashed manually the files, can we continue like that or is it better to flash the ROM as a simple package?

Launcher same....
Use mine Ux6 home port....
i will :D but at my rom if i have your permission ! this one is to stay stock i won't modify it, its our alternative for the kdz that we never got from LG.
do you have the baseband unknown when flashing this?. Flashed the files manually from the dump (boot and system) and I have this baseband unknown thingy.
Nope, it works for me , with cosmote and with vodafone. checked both carriers. Maybe the default.prop of the stock recovery has some lines that modem needs or the aboot has some lock for the modem. We will know after our TWRP dev finishes his checks.

people who flashed it manually they can dirty flash it.
In the code i didn't add any wipe or format command.
So if you are coming from MM or from lineage/aosp build , wipe , data,dalvik-cache and cache manually in advance wipe menu of twrp before flashing this.
This will flash all the partitions as if you flash the kdz, the only difference is that you will need to wipe manually. TWRP will be replaced with the stock recovery too.
This is the best since we jump to a newer OS version !
And afterwards IF twrp support it we can go to bootloader and fastboot flash twrp again.

Wiping is a "must do" when jumping to a newer OS mate !
Use LG Backup or if you are certain that Google has backed them all up just wipe and flash and restore everything afterwards using the google setup on 1st boot.

So, do you mean I can flash over without wiping but I lose recovery access?
Sorry if I didn't understand correctly. Thanks for your work, can't wait for custom ROMs :)
yes this will flash all the partitions.
you will lose twrp but after you boot and make sure everything works , you can go to bootloader and flash twrp again.
We still are not sure if the current twrp will have any bug. our steadfasterx is looking at the matter. he will propably check, compare files and do his part.
our part is to be careful.

So yes you can dirty flash.
if something doesn't work, you can clean flash too. (stock recovery too can wipe data.)
you can go to bootloader and flash twrp again too.

Lastly you can also open the zip and delete the recovery.bin if you want to avoid flashing the stock.

Me i had to provide this as it is cause its our alternative to the kdz we don't have

Tried this port but it keeps crashing for me on nougat.
What port ?
This is not a port. This is the official v29a from LG. Its the update LG gave to only Poland and we never got it .
Don't start sending bug reports here. Its not my Rom and it's not my work.
Call LG and tell them
