I just got an update (505mb) and the only update note was "camera functionality has been improved".

Has anyone else recieved this? Did you notice any camera improvements?

That's being diplomatically generous ;) Cool if automode was optimized. IMO the Note 4 currently takes better tap and shoot pics than the V20.

I'd be happy with any update.... TMO version has not had any updates yet. Still on Sept 1st Security Patch.

I would like the steady 2.0 to work. But, I'm very happy with the shots I'm getting on this phone... If it can be even better, YES PLEASE.

On a Canadian unlocked V20, I'll download it later today and post if I see any differences.

Re: "Camera functionality has been improved"

Before you download the update please test out Steady Record 2.0 before and after the update. Hopefully LG has addressed the earthquake like shake when trying to compensate for foot falls/movement. This has me reluctantly excited now.
OK - I'll do that; I've never used that feature.

I see "Steady Recording", not "Steady Record 2"... Same thing?

Yes its the same thing. It was overhyped by LG amd underdelivered but I was hopeful that LG would do right by their user base. Hopefully this truly smoothes out footage for movement more so than for stationary pans.

I never use this feature, but I will give it a try and report back.

Video footage is much more stabilized and natural looking with it turned off as it stands. Hopefully this update fixes that. This video was recorded with Steady Record disabled. Think more Google Pixel if it works as advertised though. https://youtu.be/iNJze38JSWA
