LG V30 update tracker (Update: T-Mobile resumes Oreo rollout)

Update #2 (05/30/18): T-Mobile has resumed the Oreo rollout for the LG V30. The latest version carries the build number H93220h and comes with the Android security patches for April. As well as ridding the update of the pesky bugs that halted the rollout in the first place, it also includes an AI camera update to match the V30S ThinQ.

Update (05/14/18): We previously announced that T-Mobile would be rolling out an update to the LG V30. However, it looks like that update had too many bug issues and the update rollout has been scrapped. T-Mobile did not give any update as to when a new, fixed rollout would begin. We’ll keep you posted here as soon as any news emerges.

Welcome to the LG V30 Android update tracker page. This page covers all major U.S. carriers with a quick reference table for each and a log with links to further details. It will be regularly updated with the latest LG V30 update information, but it won’t include general security patches on their own.

We recommend you bookmark this page so you can stay up to date with the very latest updates.

He bought two matching batteries from different sellers. The problem is, even though they were unopened/sealed packages of original batteries, they were not holding much charge. (I suppose they waited on a shelf for some time.) This made me question myself. In the past, I have used nokia smartphones, and they were easy to replace with fresh batteries, since almost all nokias used the same battery type. Now with android, its all over the place. Is it even worth it to go for a removable battery device when you cant find a replacement a couple of years after you purchase it? What do you think/prefer? PS. I realize this is not exactly fault of android OS, but ...
