LG V30 getting Oreo on Verizon

LegendaryScoop · Mar 8, 2018

Tonight I got Android 8.0 Oreo on my LG V30 somehow. I guess LG and Verizon are rolling it out now. Only real differences I've noticed so far include a new settings app and some tweaks to the notifications pane. I wrote an article linked here which I'll be updating with more info when it comes in. https://thematridox.com/2018/03/07/lg-v30-now-receiving-android-8-0-oreo-on-verizon/

P.S. AMA

Great. Please share your experience with battery after couple of days.

Unfortunately, I'm not seeing any AI camera features. Just standard stuff.

I'm sure Android P will be out before I get it on AT&T.

Just buy your phone without credit disguised at an operator, between the time they take to develop the update and bloatwares applications they integrate to their rom (through the boot screen with logo operators) I do not understand that people continue to buy their phone this way

I'm poor, and my Nexus 6's screen busted, so I needed something quick.

If you're referring to buying a factory unlocked version, that doesn't guarantee quicker updates. The US unlocked variant of the LG G5 was the absolute last one to get the Android M update. It seemed like LG didn't give much consideration to the factory unlocked version because that sold so few of them. The update finally came several months after everyone else.

I am poor too, but in this case it is better to buy a credit shop, and complete with a package without commitment next, the operators are thieves ..

This is rarely the case, although it is true that I read on forums that it happened on some device with some operators in my country (France)

the reverse is more often the case

couple of things. it didn't screw up my lg package installer. and no AI thingy on the camera. seem standard old oreo 8 year ago release.

bilbo60 · Mar 9, 2018

Still can't get into the secret menus, and no change to the charging messages, but that's probably a something Verizon controls.

bilbo60 · Mar 9, 2018

After the update, I get a constant notification that "Exchange is using battery". I don't see that app listed in my settings> apps and notifications. Not sure where it came from.

Wolfsbane58 · Mar 9, 2018

Strange... Exchange is part of Microsoft email server group. Do you have something like that installed?

stanleyopar2000 · Mar 9, 2018

Does it support OMS rootless Substratum!?

No. I have nothing Microsoft. I can turn the notification off, but wonder why I'm getting it to begin with. The weird thing is when I tap the notification I can disable the app I don't have.
