I bought a lg g7 on ebay thinking it was the 710 ULM but investigating I realized that it was the 710pm converted to ULM. Is there any possibility to upload it to PIE since it does not update by OTA ...
LG G7 G710PM converted to ULM
- Thread starter RaymerG6
- Start date
-Here- You can find step by step what I did to get android Pie 9 on LG G7. I had the same Phone, PM crossflashed to ULM.
LG G7 its a great phone, but if you want a phone with a large development community behind, this is not the chose one. IMO even not worth to try flash Custom Recovery or Root, there is not good rom out there and the Stock Rom with Android Pie work flawless.
Every Phone what I've have before got Custom Rom/Revovery since day One, but lately is not necessary to survive. A lot of things already are on stock rom. Anyway, I dont have any regret with this LG G7 (Good performance, Good Price $140), my last phone was a LePro 3 x727 with a great performance on Custom Rom (SD821, 4/64Gb Android 9 AOSiP, Magisk, Gcam Etc...) And I dont miss it at all...

lineage os 16 is great wdym is not worth also custom kernel too (tno kernel) it makes this phone fly and u can install gcam on lineage and u have camera and very good performance its ages ahead stock rom.
lmfao AOD dont even work rt wtf you talking about years ahead?
it does its called ambient display lol and its years ages ahead because stock rom is just BS anyway there exist a10 custom roms which are even better
It doesn't work thats the prob it drains battery and is stuck on high setting dunno wtf you talking about but its been broke from the G6 to the G7 its something that can't be fixed
it works very well and its on high brightness bc thats how it is on any device on custom roms besides amoled screens that closes pixels
I bought this phone as well. It was too late to return it but I complained anyway. They gave me a $20 refund.
So all I can do is install lineage os 17 since there will be no OTA? Installing that OS or any OS looks very complicated. There is no way to upgrade from Oreo without wiping all the data?

Sadly not , but the crossflash process is not that difficult if you follow the guide .
I have sucessfully updated 2 G7's one pm(sprint) and a vm(verizon) both working pretty great on android 10. Can't speak about volte or wifi calling since I've bever used those services so if you are interested in that I can't give you any input
On the other hand you could try lineage os or any ither or the custom roms and some of them do support updates from within the same rom , no facotry reset needed unless upgrading from lets say 10 to 11
