[Q] Will we receive 4.4.4 or Android L ? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, im not rooted, dont thinking anyway to root my phone to lose my warranty.
My Question is, will we receive Android 4.4.4 ? Is it already confirmed that we will get Android L ?
Cheers, and thanks for the answers mates )

4.4.4 had only changes made mainly for Nexus devices. These changes are likely already added in our 4.4.2 firmware so my guess is we will jump straight to L

Android L is confirmed and it will come with the G3 UI
₪LG G2₪

Nothing is officially confirmed, so don't get your hopes high. I was in the same boat as you, but now im running cloudyg3 and I'm much happier with my device.

True. At least we have something to enjoy thanks to these wonderful developers. But I believe android L on G2 will be more smoother and will have better battery life and ART enabled by default. Fingers crossed. Always love to have LG updates but sadly they take ages to release updates compared to other manufacturers.

LG actually doesn't like the minor updates, that's why we don't get 4.4.4, but they do update their phones when major changes appear.

Google releases Froyo update for Nexus Ones, open-sources code (from GSM Arena)

Lucky Nexus One bustards
As owners for X10, are we eligible for this update??
-----------------------------
Google is also celebrating today - Android 2.2 Froyo has reached two important milestones. Google open sourced the latest version and they are pushing out the final Froyo update to Nexus One users. And we're sure the timing has nothing to do with the launch of the iPhone 4.
Sure, Froyo has been available to Nexus One users for a while (mostly on dev phones and through manual updates), but this seems to be the final, official version of Android 2.2. You could manually download the update from here (it works only if you're running FRF50 firmware), though if you don't know what you're doing, you should wait for the OTA update.
Your Nexus One should automatically check for updates or you could force a check (go to Settings -> About phone -> System updates), so one way or another you should be getting a notification that a new version is available and download it Over-the-Air.
Some people are reporting that the update is not available for them yet, so it might not work right away - rolling out updates is a gradual process and it varies by location too.
The other important milestone for Android 2.2 Froyo is that Google open-sourced the code to their partners and manufacturers and everyone else too. This means that they can start working on Froyo firmwares for the non-Google phones.
------------------------------------------
Can we have official feedback from SE guys?

Well the Nexus One is a Google brand phone so it's no huge surprise that the Nexus gets it first. It'd be more suprising if it didn't.

Totally agree with you, but I believe SE should consider updating us (X10 users) to the 2.2 not 2.1
Anybody is reading from SE team???

You put your hope on SE? Joke or what?
The way I see it with Android devices is that you buy the hardware and then hack the software to hell and back. Just didn't count on the X10 being so hard to mod when I got it, guess I'm too used to HTC phones.

I've heard tons of timeframes, all of them are "Later", "Soon", "When it's done" and so on. Afaict they've got it working but need to make it more noob-friendly as well as hide the exploit.
I understand that 'root' has been achieved, but won't there be further delays until a stable custom Rom is created for the x10?

Oh yes, it will take anywhere from a short while to a very long time afterwards. Getting root is just one step of the way.

Thought as much. From the posts on other threads it seems as though posters think root and ROM will appear simultaneously.
I can imagine that the first ROMs we'll get our hands on will have all sorts of bugs, and we'll have to compromise on things like WiFi, Bluetooth e.t.c. Maybe due to lack of drivers available.
I'm going on past experience from The G1 and old WinMo devices.
Oh well.......
Remember to be realistic, guys. The devs can't just copy and paste Froyo onto our X10s without a hitch. It will take some time. I'm not even anticipating a stable version of Froyo on the X10 because it is a huge task.
What I'd like to see is the latest FW but stripped down with no branding or operator software (and no Moxier crap!!!). And if it's possible, for Flash to be released on the X10. That may not be feasible but I certainly hope it's available. SE takes forever!!

We should get 5.0.2. So, if we wouldn't wait longer, we had 5.0 allready.

No, we probably getting 5.0.2(or 5.0.1)... infact in official site of sony , they don't say we have android 4.4.4 in xperia z2 or z3...but android 4.4 kitkat(and the differecence between 4.4 and 4.4.4 are important). They put a generic version... but the update is probably last And if it is really android 5.0...they're always work hard to make a very stable firmware..they can make a really good firmware with 5.0 base too..it explains the lot of time to roll out the firmware and android lollipop from the base is very buggy.... samsung galaxy s5 for example have android 5.0 base for the last firmware...but is more bugless than a nexus flagship with android 5.0.1

Again a comparison against 2 different devices, a good friend of mine had an S4 and update and that phone was totally dead and wont start anymore, she had mine in hands (my Z2) and she sold her S4 immidiatly and buyed a Sony and she is very happy now.. Enough said
Sent From Somewhere On Earth With My Z2 ^^
Crapsung, I used to own an XPERIA x10, I upgraded to and S3 after a long while of owning that phone. I must say, it was an upgrade in speed and battery, but everyone with a decent brain should udnerstand that. I was not really happy with the phone, alot of problems, not only me, alot of others too. After my S3 I bought a Sony again, the XPERIA z2. Not even ONE problem with my phone anymore. No lags, nothing, everything is perfect. Never buying a Samsung again, overrated plastic. But my S3 is not out of service by the way. It still works, not smooth and perfect though as my Z2, my mom is using it with sometimes complaints.

(Discussion) LG G3 Android 5.1 Lollipop Update

Apparently Google released the 5.1 Lollipop update yesterday to the Nexus devices. Hopefully it will come soon to our LG G3s. I am hoping that they will release it in the USA instead of the 5.0 update that has been delayed.

They released it for the Android One and testing it on the nexus`s. I guess OEMS have it too and they are testing it.
I think that going by how fast we got the 5.0 update, we will get 5.1 update as well. Sooner rather than later.

Yes, I agree
I read somewhere that you can gain double the performance in some circumstances with the 5.1 update. If that's true, I'm really excited about this release. I really liked lollipop on both my Nexus 7 and my Moto G. It's a great update, probably the best one Google has ever done. The ART runtime is amazing and it sounds like they've made it even better, faster, and more memory efficient in the 5.1 update.

Unless of course you live in the US. We still don't have it. But it's okay. We all use the bloatware carriers put on our devices and in no way root immediately and remove any of it. It's a good thing it's delayed for months because I don't know what we would do if we didn't have access to AT&T Remote Support, Mobile Locate, AT&T Live and AT&T Locker. Those apps are lifesavers. -.-

If you guys ask for the official release then i think it will take a while. Lg g4 is rolling out in 20 days so taht will delay the official 5.1 for our device.
I ll stick with custom 5.1 roms and surely i ll wait for the blisspop 5.1

Android 5.1 rolling out now! Finally!

It seems that nobody talk about it... Updates are always welcomed!
http://officialandroid.blogspot.de/2015/03/android-51-unwrapping-new-lollipop.html
edit: It's true! It's rolling out after more than 3 month of waiting
Well someone mentioned it in another topic. I think we'll have to wait a few days (or weeks). Mostlikely we'll see a custom 5.1 first, as the source code is already published.
Anyways, I look forward and hope that the did something with the memory management. I looked at their changelog and saw that ~20 memory leaks was found and fixed. That is the major issue for me at the moment. Multitaksing with two tabs in Chrome and spotify playing along with FB+messenger is really horrible. Also I'm planning to run custom ROM/Kernel after they have been updated to 5.1.

did you happen to have captured the OTA?
Looking at the build number i'm pretty sure that's a custom ROM not the official stock ROM...
"lollipopalooza" indeed ...
Looking at AOSP flounder kernel commits, I see that most changes are related to the GPU and WiFi.
Can't wait to try it.

Ugh well this is taking way too long. The memory leaks are making my Nexus 9 almost unusable at this point. Not exactly something I expected when I paid $600+ shipped to Canada for the 32 GB at launch.

[Q] [5.1.1] Note3 Stock ROM

Hello Pals,
Any idea if we will get an official default stock 5.1.1 for Note3 like we got for 5.0 ?
Because, i have updated my Note3 manually with 5.0 as in my country my operator didn't receive it yet. so am very sure that 5.1.1 is going to reach extremely late.
Please share your inputs.
Thanks in Advance.
Ask Samsung .
AS not all have received 5.0 yet then it may skip 5.1.1 .

I personally do not think Samsung is going to provide an update but that's my personal thought . That's the reason why I'm running Temasek's CM12.1 on my Galaxy Note 3. And honestly, I am much happier now due to the fact I'm running always the latest android version which is faster and smoother than TW. The only downside may be the missing s-pen functionality.
Infact, i already raised this concern to Samsung, but they haven't given an anticipated date, they just asked me to wait for Android 5.0
But i believe that 5.1.1 will come for sure for Note3. But maybe it gets delayed.
