Nope same here. Apparently LG confirmed our ZA devices update only coming in december, so i take it all EA models is only december:rolleyes: root is still impossible too without abl.

i guess we wait on..

Where did you read about the update coming in December? Is there any reason for this delay? Isn't the hardware supposed to be the same between EA and EAW variants?

I have no idea why, i cant post links here but i can tell you go google "g8s android 10" and look for piunkaweb page with lg update tracker, LG replied to a tweet saying ZAF models only getting in december, if you go look EA model is only in 8 countries and none have received where as EAW has a few countries that have it. EAW you can even BL unlock where EA even though you got fastboot and can write a bl key, cant unlock.

LG seems to be treating these with lower priority to everything. Im guessing they're the black sheep of the range:p

My best guess is yours will come more or less same time as mine, but all i can really confirm is i don't have the update yet and i saw it was asked to LG and they said december.

Since yours and mine are in the same model line. This is just a guess it will be same for you. Im still stuck on 10i.

Hope one day someone just gets this damn phone rooted so we can do GSIs and not rely on LG's amazing service for updates

Has anyone any further information regarding the availability of the Android 10 update for the non EAW variants?

Unbelievable that the EAW model is receiving security patches and our EA is still waiting for the Android 10 update...

What is the meaning of "EAW". Electrical Association for Women? And if not, what is the meaning of the missing "W"?

I'll ask again, as previously I didn't receive an answer. Is it possible to flash the EAW KDZ on the EA model?

It seems the update is rolling out also for the EA variant, at least in some countries...anyone from Australia received the update yet?

    Why the f*** the users are so stupid these days!? Q3 is autumn and not summer. Today is only the end of July, so even not the end of August. So why the f*** are you so impatient!? One gets the impression you are going to die without android 10...

    Hi, the V10r-EEA-XX does not run root on my LG G8s, boot loader is closed, so everything is official. can you simply install the v20a here via LG Up? and will you still get official updates via OTA afterwards? you have to pay attention to something because of the 2 different partions A / B

    You will find the description in post #77

    @marco_lu i would like to thank you for given us the latest Android Beta ..... good work and stay healthy :good:

    I call the G8s ThinQ also my own, and yeah it's kinda a bummer to still work with Android 9 because there are many features which i'd really like to have.
    But positive is, the official Android 10 update from LG comes soon, it's release is planned for the 3rd Quarter this year! So just sit tight for a couple of more weeks... ;)
