[Q] Non Play Edition ?

Does any one know when we will get upgrades to the LG non GPE g pad?
Or is it possible to install the GPE 4.42 upgrade on non GPE G Pad?
Thanks in advance.

Yes there's already a post about it. Search.

I actually contacted LG regarding this the other day. They put me in contact with an 'LG g pad expert' who told me that it was unlikely that V500 would see any updates beyond 4.2.2, but that they would keep the LG G2 current (obvious). I was like, 'uhhhh, shouldn't it be easy since the gpe has the same specs and there is already 4.4 kitkat for it?'. He went on to explain to me that the OS development team responsible for the gpe was separate from the one that was responsible for the original g pad (V500) and that they (original developers) were being left out of the loop on everything regarding the new updates. The old devs were from LG and the new ones are from Google I think - I may have interpreted him incorrectly as he was difficult to understand... but I think this was the jist of what he was saying.

The upgrade to 4.4 broke my GPS completely. I did a factory reset to go back to 4.3 and then overnight it automatically updated to 4.4 again. After that the GPS works again.

there is no official update at the moment for 4.3 or 4.4.2. Only way is to install a custom recovery and then a custom rom. Cyanogenn mod 11 released a snapshot version yesterday

he is talking about a custom rom or maybe the gpe edition? There are no official updates atm and i find it kind of hard for an official update to break your gps

Thought maybe he meant a gpe rom that he got working

I very, very much doubt LG would kill support for their only tablet (outside of the GPE) as soon as it was released. If this thing gets stuck on 4.2.2 it'll be the last LG product I ever buy. Granted, I'm on 4.4.2 thanks to developers, but still. It would be very stupid of them.

There have been some rumors on sites that it will get it this quarter. Don't know how reliable anything is and will just wait and see. If it doesn't get an update I will end up rooting and flashing but I hope it does get an update because I like the LG interface and extras.

A few people have spoken to LG about this and they currently have no plans to update the stock ROM to 4.4.2. Your best bet would be to root and flash it.

I agree with you completely - I won't do business with them in the future either, but as I stated before, I contacted them and this is what they told me (that they prob wouldn't do updates). I think they are going to let the V500 supply dry up and only the V510 will be available from then on out. If that's the case, the user base of the V500 will be relatively small so they might not feel that its worth it to keep it updated for a small group of people.

Who have they talked to? The people who would typically answer a phone or email are unlikely to know. They will know of any potential update when or if LG is ready to release one just like anyone else. Until or if that happens, they are going to say no plans and would probably be instructed to say no plans.
Unless someone has a real inside source, I would be leery of any information coming from Joe blow at LG.
Regardless, I am sure I will be flashing it eventually anyway. I know myself too well to think I won't.

I don't know man.. I think LG could just leave it as is. Since I mean.. Blue stripes, 7 LED's on white background with low brightness.. It just seems like there's been so many issues with this tablets screen that.. Well.. Why not release something new and take care of the issues?
Hasn't LG been known for leaving ppl out of the fun? Release the phone, move on, if you know what I mean.
With that said, I dealt with the screen and I don't notice any troubles at all, but not every one feel that way. I mean.. The boxes aren't sealed in half of the stores.. Man this tablet has had a pretty poor launch from LG's standpoint.
What I don't understand is why Google took it in at all with all these screens and such. Shouldn't they be pushing for like.. REAL quality? Gah, not that it's not quality.. It's just not Nexus standard with all these things on the screen. I dunno dude. Something just tells me that this tablet isn't gonna be as huge as I expected before I got it myself. If Google starts developing on the GPE all I can hope for is that ppl find a way for us v500 ppl to port over and keep on using this beast tablet. Cause let's face it. All tablets have issues, these are just a bit more.. Visual.. But fixable/ignorable/circumstanced I'd say.

The problems with this tablet are tiny compared to most of the devices that Google have released.
Check the forums for the devices that covers the first 3 months of release.
I waited 6 months before I bought the original n7 because of all the QC issues.
And also bear in mind that the actual sales figures for Google devices is just a small drop in the Ocean, compared to the big boys.

Lol go look at nexus 7 2013 forums. Google doesn't care about quality control for the most part in my opinion. Its a major factor why I decided to get this.

I see your points guys. Just from having checked the earliest 3 pages on the Nexus 7 (2013) General forums I've found several reports on dead pixels and dust under the bezel/screen.
I subtract my statement. To some degree. I still stand firm by the fact that I don't understand why Google would choose a tablet that has been reported to have like.. Cohesive issues with the screen and that it is up to peoples "nit picking" if they wanna keep it or not.
One thing is to have Asus produce a tablet, test some devices and then release it and THEN find out the screens and the damn assembly of the tablets has been flawed as fck, not to mention the seemingly bad functioning android 4.3 Stock Nexus 7 ROM. - Another thing is to decide to re-release a branded 8 inch tablet as a Google device even after it has been receiver with such big variation by the masses.
With all the devices that were being swapped for new ones already, I don't see how Google would think they'd actually make a lot of money on selling this device. Wouldn't it have been more clever to wait around and see if something better came along? Of course the fact that the LG G Pad 8.3" falls in line with the low cost Google devices is of course a reason worth considering as well, in terms of branding. It just doesn't change that this tablet is unstable on the consumer market since many people thinks of the screen as the most important thing on a tablet, and I will agree with them since you're looking at it and it will show all mistakes to you at all times (when you choose to look for them.)
Isn't there a difference between creating a device and then finding the flaws after production and re-releasing a device you already knew was having issues that a big part of the community was rather unsatisfied with to begin with?
- Sorry for the long answer guys. And I agree with you on the fact that Google prolly doesn't care that much about quality control since all these issues are floating around in the Nexus forums. So, I'm sorry for the first post. This one is simply just me thinking about the last part here.

First of people on these forums myself include d are the worst nit pickers. 99% of buy public would either not notice or care of what we complain about.
GPE edition is likely due to face there is a partnership with Google and lg. The last 2 Nexus phones are made by LG.
Overall it is a good tablet. It would cost them nothing for current users to be Allowed to move the software top sane add gpe version if they decide not to continue support.
Long before then I am sure we will have a rom with the best of both

Conversation with Moto Mobility Regarding LP

Now that David Schuster is gone from Moto, I decided to contact Customer service... Don't think the person really knows.
Alessandro Chavez (Listening)
Alessandro Chavez: Hi, my name is Alessandro Chavez. How may I help you?
Alessandro Chavez: Good morning! Who do I have the pleasure of chatting with?
Scott Wilson: Greetings,
Alessandro Chavez: Hi
Scott Wilson: Now that David Schuster is laid off from Moto, How do we find out if we are ever going to receive Lollipop or other updates?
Scott Wilson: Many that have 2013 Droids are in the Dark. Vrizon tells us nothing, and we are frustrated
Alessandro Chavez: Ok, well to be honest all the Phones around the world will receive the update
Alessandro Chavez: Yes is understandable
Scott Wilson: from 2013 and up?
Scott Wilson: Are you saying that Verizon is still going to upgrade Lollipop for the 2013 Droids on Verizon?
Alessandro Chavez: Well what version of Droid you have?
Scott Wilson: Droid Maxx
Alessandro Chavez: Ok thanks, do you remember what was the original software?
Scott Wilson: Kitkat
Alessandro Chavez: Ok, so yes the phone will receive it, but it is randomly
Alessandro Chavez: We can't determine when you are going to receive it

This is no surprise. Motorola can't tell you because it isn't up to them. The ball is in Verizon's court and has been for a long time. I really doubt my Droid Maxx will ever get another major version update. On the other hand I'm finding it works very well for me as it is. I have a Samsung tablet that got updated from 4.4.2 to 5.02 and generally speaking that was a big "so what's the big deal" moment. In the case of my Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 it did seem a little smoother and a little snappier. On the other hand I did a factory reset after getting the update...and all devices feel snappier after a reset, right?
Anyway if you want to know about updates ask Verizon....where you will get a blank stare. For me, I don't particularly care if I get an update.

Someone actually wants Lollipop on an Ultra/MAXX/Mini? Really? Do they understand how badly it'll screw up our devices in doing so? KitKat is mature, stable, and it just works - Lollipop brings nothing to the party at this point in the Android game, so to speak.
Hell, I was considering getting a new device recently but then I realized all the new devices come with Lollipop and there's just no KitKat to work with anymore so it looks like I'll just keep buying old used devices that run KitKat and stick with 'em.
</personal_opinion_for_the_record>

I've been running LP 5.1.1 for the past month and is amazed at how it renewed my phone. No wonder Motorola is not pushing hard to get LP released, it'll mean less upgrades to their new models. My Maxx is a beast right now. The interface is silky smooth, scrolling through apps that used to choke on itself is no longer the case. Tapatalk for example used to be choppy as all hell, now it is like the phone is reading my mind. Overall, the phone is much snappier. Battery life is at least equal to the best I've ever had running on KitKat, probably better actually. With everything enabled and running on radio the whole day is no big deal. With the screen off, it is draining at about 1% per hour. Yeah, KitKat is just bad memory for me at this point. Its was ugly, and was laboring the phone. The chains have been released! Lol. Exodus 5.1.1 on the Maxx baby!

Id almost bet $$ the mini and ultra will never see lollipop or 6.0.

Did you do a factory reset or clean install in conjunction with 5.1.1? On a device that's been in use for a while I've found a reset in and of itself seems to make it work like a new phone. On my Samsung tablet I got an update to 5.02 and didn't really notice any performance improvement. Then I did a factory reset and it felt really fast...but it may have felt just as fast had I done a factory reset on 4.4.

No factory reset, but going from 4.4.4 to 5.1, I had to delete the systems folder. Kept data untouched and had all my apps still installed. Been doing dirty flashes since while updating the Exodus nightly. The biggest difference between 4.4.4 and 5.1.1 is how much smoother the LP UI is. It is like upgrading the graphics card in a computer. Scrolling is night and day as I've said, I use Crapatalk a lot and is the most active app on my phone and in LP, it is Tapatalk again. Scrolling is buttery smooth and that's not even exaggerating. Everything is snappier. When I say it is a new phone, I mean it. My wife has the OG Moto X and I still have a Moto X DE, both unlocked anf still running 4.4.4 so I've done plenty of comparison. KitKat is literally sh1t compared to Exodus 5.1.1.

I do hardly believe that Moto X style/pure might get N but there is no official news about it...
I tweeted Moto_Us and Moto_India but got same reply that
"We currently have no info.. For more info kindly stay updated"

Voted no only because I'm doubtful we'll get it officially, but as the other people have said... custom roms bro.

I think it will get 7.0 by the end of the year. It got 6.0 pretty fast, and is still pretty much the flagship of Motorola. People just lost hope because of the ignored 6.0.1 update. I'm hoping to switch back to a Nexus anyway so I don't have to worry about updates anymore.

Being one of the few devices on official android site I think means we're getting 7.0 pretty soon

But is it still a flagship with the new Moto Z's coming out? Way things have gone with Lenovo I'd not put money on it BUT never say never.

Well, if they abandon any real support for this phone in one year, I won't be coming back to Lenovo/Motorola. I'll just have to decide if expandable memory is still a deal maker/breaker with the next gen and go Nexus or something else.

Agreed!

Android 7 will be there!!!
With X-Style there aren't any technical/hardware issue or even a minor reason for not supporting the Android 7. So with this the liability of providing or not providing Android 7 will be with Motorola (Lenovo). Providing with Latest Android version being a USP of Moto phones, there is very chance that they will not risk reputation with this phone by excluding the update.
In-case this is not done for some reason then my steps would be:
1) Root and install Android 7 rom.
2) Buy a new Nexus phone.
3) Collect Invoice of all my Moto phone (Namely: Moto G (8gb), Moto G (16gb), Moto E (4gb), Moto G3, Moto G Turbo, Moto X Style).
4) Submit the collected Invoice plus the nexus invoice to Motorola with update as why they lost a loyal customer.
*Infact I was planing this for the delayed patch, and made my disappointment by tweeting the same to motorola. Were they assured me of early notification of update.*

[rant] motorola sucks/how to kill a perfectly good device
Motorola/Lenovo service has been horrible both in replacing defective hardware and with software updates even though they committed to timely release! They will probably at some point release Nougat on this device but really how long will it take (see where we are with MM updates!!) ? And as far as custom roms are concerned we're seeing so little developper activity for this device that I think everyone has already moved on! This was my first non-Nexus device in a long while and I'm not eager to duplicate the experience. It's really too bad as I really liked the Moto X pure. :crying:

Ffs these threads need to stop. Yes the Moto x pure 2015 will get 7. IT WILL TAKE TIME release of n is rolling out give it a few months

The ZTE Axon 7 looks a lot like the X Pure, except with software support. They announced that they will be assisting Cyanogenmod.

(Within 2017)Moto Representative Confirmed O timeline for Z Play.

Moto has already released the list of devices getting O ,some weeks ago.
Today, I was with chat with the moto representative, trying to get to know the timeline for O Update in the Z Play.
And, yes she told that it will get Very Soon.
She is assuring that it'll definitely get it Very soon.
Then i reconfirmed the device and asked if it'll get before 2017,and yes it'll definitely get before (Within)2017.
Error: By mistake i have written "before 2017" actually it's "Within 2017".
[See the Images attached]

I'll believe when I'll see - Moto is not very trustworthy as for updates. I've been waiting for Moto X Force update more than half a year (to 7.x), my Wife is still waiting for that 7.x update for Moto X Play, so they promising a lot, but have problem with delivering...

That is the case with Moto X force but it'll not happen with the Z Series as it was released by lenovorola and not Motorola.

Well, as a matter of fact, I don't really care - Oreo hasn't got any interesting, revolutionary or even evolutionary changes, that I'll be looking for. For me it should be 7.2, not 8.x.

I wouldn't count on that considering the fact how long it took them to update form 7.0 to 7.1.1 and that we're still lagging over a month behind with security updates. On the other hand, 8.0 has own set of issues now and sometimes it's better to wait for patched version than just rush things.

Exactly, some people are just bugging vendor to provide update ASAP and then complain about bugs. Ridiculous. I would rather wait for 8.1 or similar instead of stuck with 8.0.
Sent from my LG-V940n using Tapatalk

Well, not quite. If vendor is able and known for releasing fast updates then sure, update straigh away and then do small incremenetal ones as fast as possible as soon as bugs are found. That would be ideal. Sadly, this rule rarely apply here and vendors tend to release bugged firmware and then take another couple months to fix the problems.

Even you're not agree at first, later you explained exactly what I meant. Choosing between getting buggy 8.0 and then nothing for months or ever, or wait a bit longer and get bug free 8.x. I'm choosing second option.

I agree. It is better to wait for a bug fix. :good:

Well, he or she never confirmed the 2017, you just want to read it that way. What is confirmed, is the "soon" (Motorola-soon)
And I wouldn't give too much on the word of a support employee.

For sure will not get update "before 2017"

It removes FUSE, replacing it by SDCardFS! That means:
- All file system accesses will be faster (probably about 20%).
- The old bug not being able to set a timestamp is said to be gone.
This is a change which I'm hoping for since start of 2009 when they introduced that bug with Android 4.0, extending it to all file systems with Android 4.4. This is my main reason for rooting every device (beside easy backup possibilities).

Did everyone got the pie update? Still nothing for me.

As the title says. Except for different launchers i haven't modified the rom or network in any way, and the last update is November 2018.

Same here!
Maybe we even get a better more recent version ...

They rolled back the update cuz so many bugs were reported.

Is this official? I was so eager to try it

It is. Xiaomi also said that they are working on a fix, so expect the update in the upcoming days.

I'm on official pie, and haven't faced any bugs besides a bit of battery drain and and little animation glitches. Everything is all Gucci.

I will go abroad on holidays and considering that I have an EFS backup so I can downgrade without any problem, I think that i'll go back to Oreo.
I need that battery lasts longer and a good signal reception that now is very bad (other than the LTE issue that I solved my self)
Every time I do the same mistake, accepting the update immediately without waiting for others users feedback, and this time Xiaomi did a disaster.
However I think that Pie will be last major release for Mi A1, they learned that more recent is the Android version and more difficult is to make it supporting older platforms, and SD625 is actually an old platform.
So yes, the update was luckily pulled down but the disaster is done. I hope they will found a fix for everything they messed up.

It surely is.
Android One is supposed to get two years of support, and Mi A1 was released in spring 2017, so...
625 is not the problem, also MI A2 Lite is on the same SoC but it will receive Android Q for sure.
