Official nougat update for LG G5 H850 using LG Bridge
- Thread starter GerikoJulyan
- Start date
yes, that’s true, but not branding free. And the provider should be usable in your country too.
Actually it is branding free. No provider bloatware. Running it now
do we have any log changes for the v20 a,b,c,d firmware?
I'm still on v20a and i really wonder why there is no update for me and i have to use lg up to flash the rom.
is there any real benefit to flash the v20e other than security updates?

No I didn't. Loaded v20c previously. V20e is much better. Seems more stable
But for some reason my phone cannot pick up my blue tooth speaker.
Yeah but it's for South Africa. I just instal v20d so far so good
Yes its from south Africa, I'm from south Africa as well.Yeah but it's for South Africa. I just instal v20d so far so good
I previously had the UK and Spain versions loaded on my phone and they worked.. But they had issues like battery drain, etc.
U do know u can load any h850 software to a LG g5 h850 device regardless of region
It seems to be important to use H850 versions for H850 and not H850TR or something else to be save.

Yes, correct.
Do a back before applying update.. I must say LG has a very stupid backup program. Rather look a backup solution that can backup directly from device to pc
and important to know:
After flashing .kdz file with LGUP, there is something to do again if it was done before (because system was renewed!)
* right management off all installed app's have to be set again
* all sounds and theme settings must be restored
* all unused apps have to be frozen again
* the internal sd datas must be restored
* all registrations of buyed apps have to be restored. (specially from app internal buying)
* if not using a different launcher, all icon settings have to be set again
* SMS/MMS settings must be restored
* contact sorting (name; prename) must set again
* protection against battery energy optimizing of some apps must set to off if necessary
* time zone have to be set again
* something i have forgotten
This should be only a to do list for somebody who is not familiar with this procedure.

Dont upgrade to nougat yet.. for my LG G5 i get full of issues.. mobile restarts.. many apps got crashed.
Do a factory reset and cache partition wipe.. U have conflicts on ur phone
If you use it, maybe one or different UK providers would not be recognized by real name because they are unknown in African version.
i had changed to the African version for a short time.
Now i try to return to the original stock open_eu version.
let’s see how it work
after a while....
Ok, replacing the African version to the older 20a open eu seems to work.
But after reboot and optimizing, i get many closed apps.:crying:
Try to make a factory reset now.
ok, it looks like that this seems to work.
Now i will see, if the European update is available for me.
a few seconds later....
YES, the 20d Eu update was automatically offered after factory reset and is now loading.
Nice experience
