What i fear about the incoming Lollipop

From all the leaked screenshots we can see, android 5.0 looks exactly like the kitkat LG UI. We are not getting the pure, stock lollipop(like white drawer etc). So, if we are going to loose unlocked bootloader, do we really need it?

Nobody is forcing you to upgrade. If you don't like the theme LG is using then stick with what you're using now.

If I understand you right there is two questions in what you wrote:
1. is LG keeping their signature UI design in the upcoming upgrade Android 5.0?
Answer: yes because this is always how it has been and will continue to be, valid not only for LG. Exception of course Play editions for some makes. Pure Google/AOSP UI look without LG launcher/apps will always be via custom roms.
2. Will I loose my Bumb/unlocked bootloader if I take the official upgrade?
Answer: not sure that will work either, but ya one could loose ability to bump bootloader after flashing official update. As soon as the upgrade is official some stock rooted roms will pop up ready to be flashed. There is even a leaked android 5.0 around now

Thank you for the answers, english is not my first language.
Also, will google now launcher from the store update to stock lollipop theme?

Nobody on this site should take the ota, be patient and wait for a ROM to be available..

Don't worry, that fear is experienced by TouchWiz users long time go.

There's more, MUCH more, to 5.0 than just the UI. To be honest, the visual changes are actually secondary to the system changes as far as I am concerned. I'm far more interested in the power management updates, camera enhancements, etc... Material design is basically window dressing.

Why did you think LG s going to release a AOSP looking L ?

Most of what you see in stock is just the Lollipop Now Launcher, which is limited and to my eyes ugly as sin. All that white is just horrible.
Most of the rest in the G3 is similar to the same as stock. Either way ill be using Nova, so its fine.

They will be changing it a bit
“The new features and improvements in Android 5.0 will bring a whole new user experience to the G3 and make it even better than it already is.”

[DEV][REF]How to add root support to LL boot.img
As long as you dont install the new bootloader, you can keep TWRP.
They figured out that the new boot.img could be bumped and flashed in the old bootloader.

This wasn't the case with the note 2. The update to 4.3 bootloader blocked going back to an earlier stock version of android.

Also, although @autoprime has confirmed the release of Android L for the D855 does not implement anti-rollback, this does not mean that other variants will not implement something to keep us from going back to previous software versions, then you may be stuck with Android L but no root or TWRP permanently

[Q] Update to Kitkat or not?

I need to update to Kitkat cause there are too many apps and options I can't get
But I'm afraid of Kitakat problems many people have mentioned like battery drain and other issues
So I need an assurance that the problems are fixed by the firmware that LG has released like D80220C or so
Can anybody help??
And another question about LG PC SUITE:
Does it provide the phone with the most recent update directly without updating to 20a then 20b then 20c and so on??
And If yes does that mean I can wait and use it to update my phone from JellyBean to Lollipop directly??

My phone started with 4.4.2 20E firmware so I cant comment on performance compared to 4.3.
I will say however, that 20E was good and 20H is even better. Coming from the Nexus 5 running 4.4.4, I suprised what a good job LG have done with Kit Kat. :victory:
Why not make sure you have the 4.3 image as a backup before you update to KK

The updates from your specific carrier may end at 20C but I am using LG stock image which has gone onto 20H. Battery life on 20H is very good indeed. My best is 103H of standby with 2.5 hours of SOT, (as I'm a light user.) :angel:

Stopping at 20C may have something to do with your carrier and country. My phone was on Vodaphone in the UK and came with 20E. I de-branded my phone by installing the LG 20H firmware direct from LG. :victory: (this is differnent to unlocking your phone!)
I also made sure I had the original Vodaphone 20E firmware before I flashed the LG firmware to let me go back should I require. 20H is so good that I dont need to. :angel:

Yes,It's the country I got the phone from supports it until only 20C
I just want to update it to a stable version in Kitkat and doesn't matter for me If It's the latest update or not
The problem is that I'm impressed with the phone's battery life and I would lose my mind If the update to Kitkat makes it worse

I suggest you do your homework and learn how to flash the various stock roms with the LG flash tool. (I'm not talking about rooting etc here!)
Once you've found the current rom you are using, (to save as a backup incase anything goes wrong,) you can then flash 20C or 20H to see if you are happy with the battery life. Just remember to judge over 3 or 4 cycles as the 1st is always excellent, but the 2nd is always rubbish, (In my experience.)
As you have your backup, you can always go back if you arent happy. :angel:

I'm not sure Buddy!

no, you need to be on stock recovery, but you can still be rooted, be aware that the flashing process will wipe your device and you will need to root again after

Is it another beta or final lollipop release?
To those who have installed it already: is it still laggy as b308 and b312? I have tried both, now downgrdaded to kitkat and I actually CAN use my phone again... lollipop in Mate 7 is a disaster

This is beta but is the closest thing to the final one as it is very fast and polished with no problem so far, make sure to factory reset your device :good:

the link for the B308 is dead, anyone know where to find it?

Here a working B308 update link https://mega.nz/#!XUcyERrR!vn_ryYSIjik3BhsvA0RyNZGKulQlOPaieUClsaY9SE0

ok guys becarefull , don't be root during the process or the update will fail and put you in bootloop. i was in b308 with stock recovery but rooted and my device dld the b317 OTA but failed to aplli it... otherwise the b317 is very very close to final release no bug at all. i just beg huawei for 2 things, the lake of option and action with the intelligent case and the lake of option and action with the fingerprint scanner ( like in the honor 7 ).

Anyone can say something about performance vs b145? My battery life is amazing on that latest kitkat and the phone itself is very snappy and fast, no lag at all even with many apps opened. Tried both lollipops(b308 and b312) and it was like 3 years step back in terms of performance(very laggy and slow). I love fingerprint call answering(which is only in lollipop) but I can live without it having a phone with great battery life and actually usable... can someone compare b145 and b317??

Doesn't work for me. Restored original recovery, tried manual update to b308 but no luck.
zip looks fine but flash give me error "Failed".
I'm on 137.SP03
I've got B308 somewhere. Trying to find it and retry.

İ has the problem you have to load b137 again with 3 button method . After that i could load the b308 and b317 updates.

It's great update b317. Super smooth and optimized. Couple of extra features has been added, also few not so much to my liking...but overall great improvement to b312, maybe close to final release.

New Update N910VVRU2BPA1

I've been chatting with Samsung Support through Twitter about Kies not taking my serial # for my Note 4. They asked for my serial # and my imei #, so I gave it to them and they asked what version i was on and told them BOK3, they wrote back saying there is a newer version, so I asked which one is it. So here is a screenshot.
OTA Update provided by @hsbadr thanks to @doinsvelt
Official Firmware & OTA Update from N910VVRU2BOG5 to N910VVRU2BPA1: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...mware-firmware-kernel-modem-recovery-t2942937
Safe Upgrade N910VVRU2BPA1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=65278655
Update: if your battery takes a dump with the OTA, it is recommend that you do a repair via the Verizon assistant or via Kies. But if you are on a safe upgrade version then this will take you out of safe upgrade and keep you on BOG5 incremented bootloader.

Maybe a new Samsung version, but maybe not a Verizon version?
Sent from my SM-N910V using XDA Free mobile app

Here are the screenshots.
They responded back that it is 5.1.1 with security patches

So Samsung says there is another version they have out. But has Verizon released it yet? The manufacturer releases versions to the carriers who then release it to the phone owners after they do their "branding". Case in point, Samsung released 6.0.1 for the Note 4, but we don't have it yet. So

Hopefully it fixes my battery life problem, after the 5.1.1 update my battery life is TERRIBLE. It is the worse it has ever been and that's with trying to different factory OEM batteries.......The Note 4 really was a disappointment for a phone with such awesome hardware...

If anybody able to pull OTA and link it, I would put in the OP, I have it downloaded, but not installed. If anybody can guide me to pull it, I would appreciate it

Its quite simple indeed just download the zip file from the forum 5.1.1 then save it in ur sd card, press up volume, power and home button at the same time to access stock recovery, navigate to option where is says update from a file, there you go it will update to 5.1.1, batter been slightly different (not a big improvement) im indeed a very very heavy user.... i received emails all day from my job, need to check whatsapp several times, there is some annoyances however... like wifi notification that is connected never go away... the wireless and fast charging notification remain in 5.0.1 now in 5.1.1 just says it once time and disappear, album cover full screen its completly gone.... performance in task screen and some apps display faster and also navigate throught touchwiz its a little bit better... not a BIG BIG difference... they put connect to at&t network (even thou its verizon), everything its fixed in BPA1 update so if you want to give a shot go ahead... i mean its not a big big diference but if you are bored of being in 4.4.4 or 5.0.1 go ahead! good luck

This may need to go devs but notice every time you boot into recovery on this update it says "installing update". Not sure exactly what that means cause I am no dev but it seems like the the recovery is more locked down on this update.
I also did factory reset after update. So not sure why it would do that every time booting into recovery.

for last week battery been dropping fairly quickly to about 40%, then stopping abruptly. Got the update last night. After almost 12 hours on battery, it is still at 88%.

My battery wasn't doing very well until I disabled fast charging and charged regularly. But have always noticed that even on kitkat

Nova Plus MLA.....

Is it possible, to open a thread for the Nova Plus MLA-LXX only?
Root, firmwareupdates , etc.

i think its a good idea...im in canada /rogers with mla-l03...and not much here for our version

Not rooted ( yet ) but got the unlock code, me too
have the code, yet not used, all my other mobiles ihave rooted

Like i said...our device is a one pretty young...birth in september so...theres no rush to "enter the dragon" :angel:
But very anxious to try nouEmui

i have tried the unlock code, and it works, but i have relocked it.....

I've the MLA-L11 too. would be awsome to have a working TWRP , no use in getting bt unlocked
unless there is a custom recovery. I'd say we find a dev and donate enough to persuade him to work
on a twrp !

Hi, where is the android 7.0 for us, I hate Huawei when they are late on softwares....! I'm having a problem to use youtube over the phone network with my Nova Plus.
Thanks

guys the MLA varients work with xelfmade's TWRP recovery and roms can be unified to work on all varients

Ota upgrade made with my MLA-L03 to Nougat yesterday and all working great! Used FF to push the update via proxy and changed from C654B140 to C578B302 with stock updated app. Best I've like the phone yet!! Big improvement in every aspect so far.

Buddy,
for us using the MLA-L03 can you explain in details how you did that ? Been waiting for ages to get that OTA update that never comes lol
Thanks in advance

Mine completely disappeared! Wonder what to people who actually get it ota. I can push/ SD card load till it's back of a fix is out. Really odd though.

Love to see any custom ROMs for our device.

Hallo,
are there any News about my MLA-11 C432? I can´t find any actual Nougat firmware, is there anyone who has the same Model and try it out?

You can try this to update to Nougat: http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G79/g0/v73849/f1/full/update.zip Extract all the files and place them in a dload folder then place that on the root of your SD Card and install it using the three button method. If your Build Number is not showing up correctly after installing that install this: http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...-L11_hw_eu/update_data_full_MLA-L11_hw_eu.zip using the same method as before. If it does not work the first time you may need to flash the stock EMUI 5 Nougat recovery which will let you install Nougat updates, I had to do this for the CAN-L01C432 variant as the update kept stopping at around 40%. EMUI 5 Nougat Recovery: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4T1GJ6EZ3LvTWNpZ0p5YXVINGs It is up to you to try it and I am not trying to make you as I do not have a MLA variant so I do not know if it will work or not. I hope this this helps.

Like I said you may need to flash the stock EMUI 5 Nougat recovery first before any of the Nougat updates work, the big update is the Nougat update and the smaller one is functionality. Let me know how it goes if you try it.

Yes, understand, which build is it and is there no problem to get the official one when i had install it?
If it doesn`t work how to get back to notmal firmware?
I have all my devices rooted , but this one not, there are to less informations about my build, therefore i have no twrp installed.
Im careful, my last device was honor 7, and i have no problem with twrp and root, but more informations.
Download is very slow.
Do you have made the update to nougat, and does it run without bugs?
