MyLG Velvet has not updated with the Aug Security Patch. As a result my work apps were wiped from my phone. How can i force this patch onto my phone? I have Android 13 and my phone says it is up to date.

Looks like the accepted solution is wrong. Apparently LG left the cell phone business in 2020, but, promised 5 years of software updates. It does look like LG is making good on their promise, but, users outside of Korea have to wait for any upcoming updates. So, it doesn't look like there is any way to predict when the updates are available.


I wonder if that can be downloaded from an LG support site other than Canada. When you go to the LG site, you're automatically directed to the Canadian support pages and the Android version for all of the LG Velvet 5G phones shows up as V12. So, the web site isn't kept up to date.


I don't have a solution other than looking at other national site pages to see if the latest Android 13 update is available. If that can be loaded, it might present other issues such as poor 5G connectivity, as the firmware version would be adapted for that country and probably would not have the cell phone frequencies for Canada loaded within the firmware. I suspect that you might have to wait for an updated version.


We are showing you simple steps to Downgrade LG Android Version to Android 10 from Android 12, 11 through flashing with LG firmware. We do require a PC and some tool to successfully downgrade LG device to Android 10. This is the best way and authentic way, we have to download correct firmware first from LG website. To do this, just follow steps from below carefully.


This method is very helpful, if your device is on FRP protection, and you wanna bypass it. Because, in some most updated devices of (Android 12, 11) version, we are required to downgrade their android version to Android 10, after that, FRP bypass process can be applied successfully. So you can apply below steps to downgrade your device android version.


Note: We are showing all below steps, Those has been successfully applied on LG Velvet 5G (LM-G900TM). Some steps may vary regarding Firmware version, and Putting device into Update Firmware Mode.


-Go all the way down from that page, and there you will have a list of all downloadable firmware, would recommend to go for most downloaded items firmware, and do also check android version of that firmware.


-You will be able to see your connected device detail in LGUP software screen same as shown in below image, that means, the device has been detected properly, and now we can easily perform flashing process with firmware.


-Once you reach inside device 1st initial screen of (Welcome), that means, you are all done now from successfully Downgrade LG Android Version from Android 12/11 to Android 10 just through LGUP tool flashing process.

I have a Canon EOS R7, and enjoy macro photography, mostly flowers and insects. I love the ethereal effect of the lensbaby velvet lenses, but I would prefer to use a canon lens to get that effect (if possible). I was hoping to do this without a lot of post-processing work. Would anyone have a lens recommendation for me? Perhaps the RF35mm with F1.8 or RF85mm with F2?


The only Canon lens that I know of that will do some of what the Lensbaby will, is the RF 100mm f/2.8L macro. It has a spherical aberration (SA) ring that will allow you to soften your subject and fiddle with the back/foreground sharpness and bokeh. But it is pretty expensive. I have this lens and it works quite well, although I seldom use the SA ring.


Unlocking the bootloader, rooting a device, and flashing aftermarket ROMs are popular hobbies here at XDA. The power user community holds the ability to mod their devices in high regard, and they almost find no interest in phones if they are not able to be bootloader unlocked. Many legacy devices are actually kept alive by third-party ROMs, which are also godsends for smartphones that are standing on the verge of losing official support. LG, for example, no longer makes Android smartphones, hence owners of LG devices might want to settle with custom ROMs in the near future. However, the process isn't exactly straightforward due to LG's bootloader unlocking policy.


LG has a storied history with regards to bootloader unlocking. The Korean OEM used to allow only a handful of models to be unlocked by end-users -- probably due to requirements from carriers. Nonetheless, the company permanently seized the opportunity a few months ago, which means people have to rely on unofficial methods to get their bootloader unlocked. This time, XDA Senior Member Wish39 has come up with a really innovative process to unlock the bootloader of the T-Mobile variant of the LG Velvet and subsequently, root the device.


The T-Mobile edition of the LG Velvet (model number LM-G900TM) is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 1000C SoC. This makes it a unique one in the Velvet lineup, as all other variants of the smartphone feature either the Qualcomm Snapdragon 750G (5G) or the Snapdragon 845 (4G) chipset. The aforementioned MediaTek platform is vulnerable to a known bootrom exploit, which can be utilized to bypass the bootloader security and unlock the bootloader. Afterward, it's a child's play to root the device.


In case the target T-Mobile LG Velvet is running Android 11, we need to downgrade it to Android 10. This is because the Android 11 firmware for this device already patched the exploitable preloader (aka first stage bootloader). You need a PC as well, as the flashing tool works only under Windows.


Now that we have restored the exploitable preloader on the T-Mobile LG Velvet, we can unlock its bootloader in a jiffy. Thanks to the MTKClient project by security analyst Bjoern Kerler, you don't have to take care of the exploit payloads and other low-level reverse-engineering tools. All you need to do is execute a couple of Python scripts.


Since the bootloader is now unlocked, we can (re-)upgrade to the Android 11 firmware. However, directly flashing an Android 11 KDZ will replace the exploitable preloader, hence we need to opt for a selective flashing procedure.


I have two cameras, both of which currently have firmware version: 1.2.2688. It seems that the new firmware version is: 1.2.4941, but I am unable to install it. When I click the "Update" button on the web app (in the camera device settings page), a message appears on the web app stating that the camera firmware is updating. The lights flash for a short time on the camera (about 10 seconds), and then stop. The message on the web app asking me to wait while the camera firmware updates goes away. However, I am no longer able to access the camera video. I have waited as long as overnight, but the camera never becomes available. I only get a message that the request timed out. In order to get the camera video back, I have to power cycle the base station and allow it to resync with the camera. As well, the camera firmware is not updated, but is still at the same old version. I have tried this on Chrome (Ubuntu and Windows), Safari, Edge, and IE.


Most frustrating is that I am never able to view the camera video on the mobile app, because there is a green window over the camera view window that says I have to update the firmware, which never goes away. The same thing happens as described in the previous paragraph when I click the mobile app Update button in the middle of the camera window. The camera lights flash briefly and then the camera is unavailable until I power cycle the base station.


This behavior happens with both cameras. I have spent several hours on multiple calls with the Netgear tech support over the past month. They all have me do the exact same debug procedure involving the camera battery cover, camera usb power slot, camera device removal and resync, base station restart, base station factory reset and camera resync. It always ends the same way, cameras need firmware update, but refuse to update.


Netgear was even kind enough to send me a replacement camera (hence my two cameras), but the new camera behaves the very same as the original one, firmware won't update. I have also returned the base station and camera to BestBuy for a replacement, which they did do. But, the new base station and camera behave the very same way, camera firmware won't update.


One more thing to try would be to disarm the system so that the camera is not active (detecting motion) during the firmware update window. Firmware updates are triggered automatically overnight so be sure the camera is close to the base station, has fresh batteries and is disarmed.


When I click the Live button in the web app, I eventually get a message that states, "the request timed out." So, I click the Live button a second time, and this time the error states "the camera failed to connect, please try again" So, I click the Live button a third time, and this time the error states, "there was a problem establishing a connection to the media server". This little dance goes on forever, the camera now refuses to show a live image. When I open and close the battery cover on the camera, the blue light flashes rapidly, and all three lights are green on the base station. Still, no connection.


The base station is connected with a Cat 5e Ethernet cable to a Netgear R6250/AC1600 wifi router, which is connected directly to an Arris SB6141 cable modem. On a laptop computer, the wifi connected speed test is 38 Mbps download, 10 Mbps upload. On the same laptop computer, the Ethernet connected speed test is 50 Mbps download, 11 Mbps upload. There are no other devices attached to the wifi router during the test.


2. Allow the base station to come back online with a solid green power/internet LED and then go through New System Setup using a new email address. Be sure the device you are using for setup is on the same network as the base station.
