Verizon started pushing a new update to the LG V30 today, an update that turns LG’s media powerhouse into the V30 ThinQ. The new software also includes some of the AI smarts that LG hopes will help it sell a few more phones in 2018.
Users will notice during boot-up that the phone’s splash screen will say “LG V30 ThinQ” going forward. That’s supposed to point out the new AI integrations, like AI Camera, which introduces new camera filters as well as scene recommendations. You can learn more about LG’s AI features at this post.
The AT&T LG V30 received a similar update at the end of March.
The update weighs in at 843MB and software version VS99620b. It includes the March security patch, not April’s. To check for it, head into Settings>System update.

Cheers @LegendaryScoop!
Meanwhile the T-Mobile variant is still stuck on Android 7.1.2, January 1, 2018 security patch…
Obligatory “No ThanQ” comment.
???? come on magenta…
So Verizon and at&t are getting thin q features and T-Mobile still haven’t gotten to prep. Never buying a phone from a carrier again. I either going back to one plus or either gonna get a pixel.
Got it!!! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/bed9799c6954c2bd71d94c6c7e4580dc74eda438301565949101dd671c690442.png

Still waiting T-Mobile. This is getting ridiculous.
T-Mobile… Dude… Sprint and Verizon have pushed this. What happened? https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/848352afb04016c9812c7f5ccedae8543e55580f6d68af907b9b830edd99e41f.jpg
I read that LG messed something up with the update and had to fix it but I still wouldn’t think it would take this long.
Yeah, who knows. Their Twitter people have no idea either, which doesn’t surprise me.
I have a G6 and a V30, but I’ve come to accept that LG has maybe “3 staff” working carrier updates worldwide, so… And staff – yes, it’s more than 3 – working O&M aren’t the best/brightest or best funded in any given company so…
I call BS. They messed something up with only the Tmobile version? What about the Sprint, ATT and Verizon versions? not to mention the other region versions. This is a Tmobile issue hands down, not a LG issue. Tmobile is just passing the buck.
Yeah was just thinking, I guess that means we’ll be getting the update on T-Mo at half-past never! Pity, the V30 is an excellent phone otherwise. Shame T-Mo can’t seem to support it beyond telling us it’s 600mhz capable.
