Just a note for the adventurous and impatient type, do not try to adb side load the update. I downloaded the update zip from the google servers and then side loaded it in stock recovery and even on a stock unrooted ZVA build it bricked my phone. This happened to quite a few people apparently and luckily I can restore back to ZV7 when I get a chance. My data was all replaceable on my phone so it's not a big deal but just be patient!

 

If you can restore it, you're phone is not bricked  :)

To the people reporting poor Band 25 reception.   Did you enable Band 26 and Band 41?   Maybe Sprint was already ahead of you on this and you actually are causing the problem?   Maybe they made

Yeah I tried to side load it and got the boot-loop.  Ended up restoring to ZV7.  Oh well, a learning process.  I know how to restore my phone now!  :D

So clearing the cache several times did it. I was told clear cache, clear data and force stop then tap the LG Software icon 10 times and it should take.

 

Please confirm that clearing cache is all that's needed.

True boot loop is a more apt term :).

I'm about to do the same thing. Coming from HTC the restore process on this phone is so much more annoying with LGFlashtools requiring a lot of work to set up right but luckily I have already done it before so I should be up and running soon. This time I'll be patient and try the google framework method.

Under menu>settings>apps>all>Google Services Framework

 

It shows:   Force stop, Disable, Clear Data, Clear Cache

 

These are the options available.

 

So I need to know precisely what to do.  Terrell352 said he cleared a few times???

Yeah, I certainly wish I had gone the google framework way first.  A pain to have to reinstall apps and everything...  I even somehow must've forgotten to backup my contacts so this should be fun..

I did clear data then tried to get an update...  Didn't work the first time, but I repeated it one more time and it was there.

I tried just clearing the cache and it did nothing.  I then cleared the cache, cleared the data and then force stop.  Went to update the software and it worked first time.

Gah why did you people say that worked for you!? Now I'm doing it every 10 minutes lol.

 

Don't have to wait that long.  Just try it one after another.  Took me about 4 or 5 tries before it finally popped up with the update. Downloading now.

 

Also, I guess Sprint did have a typo on their support page since the file being downloaded clearly says ZVC?

I think there's a speed aspect to it as well. After force stop/ clear data, quickly get to the lg update screen to check. Took me 2 times

Don't think WIFI calling is in the update. There would be a new wifi calling app and there isn't.

      Thanks for noticing the typo. AI is latest buzzword.  Mention it a lot and your stock price goes up LOL SMH. No doubt more 600MHz is much better than the 800MHz.  Worse case is 800MHz is counted against T-Mobile in spectrum caps and they are not using it.

      No such thing as AI, only models that make things up.  Dumb. Can they keep 800 MHz even if they want to?  I thought that was a condition of the merger.  And I believe they'd have to go install new equipment in support of that 5x5 carrier, which seems like a lot of money and effort for little reward. I have two phones that have n77 enabled but dedicated principally to other bands.  So far, I have yet to see any T-Mobile n77.  It's possible it's set for NSA-only.  I also imagine I would have seen some equipment for it installed. I assume that's backwards; 165 is too large for urban and too small for rural?  - Trip

      https://www.lightreading.com/ai-machine-learning/t-mobile-uses-algorithmic-ai-to-guide-5g-expansion Lots of tidbits in this article: AI determined they did not need 3.45, 800MHz was not saleable so now they are determining whether they will keep it, 60% of their c-band is in use so we need to start hunting for it.  They use 165 meter hexagons to evaluate service. I would argue this is to large for urban areas and too small for rural.

      My guess is that TMo will do the mmWave HSI on 24/28 GHz, as they haven't relinquished the 24 GHz, and for 28 GHz they'll build out closer to the edges of their newly smaller licensed areas if enough people pick up the service.

      Tmo is doing more flip flopping than IHOP.
