I picked up a H910 the other day as it was a great price & immediately hated the AT&T bloat (plus I'm in the UK on the EE network) so I flashed US996 which was fine, the steps I did where:

Downloaded LGUP (patched)
Downloaded LG Drivers
Downloaded US99610o_01_0202.kdz
Put my phone in download mode
Selected Partition DL
Checked all partitions

Phone booted perfectly however I noticed I flashed a old version of the US996 firmware which wasn't Oreo, & I was aware that OTAs wouldn't work, so i tried flashing the update through LGUP (patched) again, this time I did:

Downloaded US99620f_00_1120.kdz
Put phone in download mode
Selected Partition DL

Then I got a error saying firmware doesn't support partition update so I checked upgrade, everything went ahead but when I booted the device it was on a blue screen with the number 2 & encryption process complete at the top, I couldn't boot the device at all past that screen

So I went back on to LGUP (patched) and this time selected refurbish & this time the device booted but immediately said settings keeps stopping and I couldn't get past it

So now I've reverted back to the US99610o_01_0202.kdz which is nougat & February 2018 patch..

What am I doing wrong?, I just wanted to be on the latest US996 firmware possible which I believe is Oreo & September patch but as I said above can't seem to do so

Any help is appreciated

I want to make it very clear I searched last night for the issue I was having and could not find it, however if this has already been discussed somewhere then I apologize but I really couldn't find where!

try upgrade mode with the oreo kdz. You don't need partition dl because the phone is already fully running us996 firmware.
Thanks for the reply, turns out it must have been a bad .kdz file, strange because I got it from the LG firmware site, I redownloaded it just incase & this time it worked perfectly so I'm now on US996 Oreo with Nov 2018 patch

Do you get any warning screen when booting up with US996 firmware on H910?
