Why ? I think G3 will get 5.0 for sure ? Of course not now, but it will (it should) get

Ported, yea for sure, only problem is that I assume the port would have to come from a 4k device, right?

Why ported ?? It's LG main phone - why should they do not upgrade it to 5.0 ?
BTW it's QHD not 4k ;p
EDIT:
As I've read - even G2 has confirmed to Android L update - in fact it's little strange I am not so sure for that, but G3 should be first to get L/5.0 from LG

I guess because it takes other flagship devices a little while to get the newest Android versions, even when it does, it will be LG's 5.0 NOT Google 5.0. The straight up Google experience is reserved for Google phones or special cases where Google has GE versions of flagships (S4 and M7).

Yes of course. I don't saying that G3 will get 5.0 at the they when google will release Android 5.0 - of course LG need some time to make it fit to G3 and recode it launcher etc. It's obvious. I just though, You're saying that G3 will never get 5.0 from LG
BTW LG said that G2 will get 5.0 at the beggining of the 2015 so G3 should get it at the end of 2014...

Not through Verizon, unfortunately. If Verizon ever allows L to be released to their (not your, from their perspective) LG G3's it will probably be next summer, all known root and bootloader exploits patched, and it will be buggy and laggy. The idea will be to get you to buy another expensive phone from them,like maybe an iPhone 6+. This is how Verizon manages to barely stay profitable with all the network investments they are constantly making...by screwing their customers every way they can figure out how to.
But...unlimited data...

Android 5.0 Lollipop by the end of 2014

It seems we are lucky. The G3 will get the 5.0 lollipop update by the end of the year:
http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g3_to_re...ipop_update_by_the_end_of_2014-news-10031.php

Well probably from my experience with the G2 in regards to kitkat the Korean G3 will get it first, then some international variants, then U.S. I would guess the U.S. would probably get it in Feb or March.

Thanks for the great news :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Great news !

Wow. That's amazing. Google should do this with every release of android. Give them a base before official release so when its official we don't have to wait forever for updates
Sent from my LG-D851 using Tapatalk

I think that's why google did it. They've also been gradually giving more access to the manufacturers earlier in return for less bloat and skinning of stock android.

I think that is the main reason lg idnt really jumping to 4.4.4. It would really be a waste of time and would simply delay the 5.0 update even further. Sure we wait longer for the patch but at least we get the latest in term of software instead of sitting on 4.4.4 even longer

I think that is something no onr can answer yet. I personally do believe lg will fix the exploit. So better to root and wait for a 5.0 rom

That's what I thought

If you want to keep ur unlocked bootloader as well as root, then don't take any new LG updates. It is very likely that both will be lost on the next software iteration.

Don't keep your hopes up

I had to incrementally update my LG G3 400k from Version 10g to F400k10t .. The last update in Korea was about 130MB.. not much of a difference but I also managed to root with PurpleDrake.. Easy as 123
I forgot to mention that the speed is awesome , after the update

verizon customers will get their Android 5.0 Lollipop April of 2015 at the very earliest. LG G4 might be released before the update for LG G3.
everyone else will get it first
just my personal experience with Verizon HTC Thunderbolt, Nexus, S3, Note 2, LG G2.

It would be amazing if we get it before 2015, custom ROM development is going slow.

Android 6 aka Marshmallow

Android named 6 version as Marshmallow as I thought. If LG does the same think like Lollipop we will see Android 6 for G3 soon as 3rd and final preview released today.

That's all we want. We must get Android 6 as soon as Google release it. There were 3 preview builds so what do really do LG software department anyway. They get money like US gets oil from middle east(lol), so what are they doing with all that money? Hire talented developers and make updates rain.
If Nexus devices had enough battery like 3000, i wouldn't lick LG's backpack for updates anyway.

to be honest I never liked LG's software development. I always believed in developers here on XDA. In my opinion LG is making powerful hardware, this is why I will stick to LG int he future, but they not tailor the OS perfectly to the device. I always liked more Stock modded softwares.

Is there any release date for 6.0 in general? Or that last dev/preview build is like RTM for Windows?

We won`t get anything this year guys. Lets be realistic. Google said M will be ready "later this fall". So we can expect it maybe in October. LG G4 will be first with the update, rolling out in December just as
G3s last years Lollipop update. I am guessing for Q1 2016 (earliest) if we get the update at all

I bet we won't get any official bootloader unlock, nor android marshmallow before january '16.

I have decided to go back to Nexus next time. Not for the latest shiny widget but to ensure I get security updates ASAP and not 1 year after my phone has retired.
I like my LG G3 but that I have to live with well documented and exploited security holes for almost a year is ridiculous.
In this case I suspect it is as much LGs fault as it also would be my carriers who insists on retesting everything for x weeks.
Nexus 5 or 6 2015 edition, bring it on

Will Moto X style/pure get Android N update?

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"
Even Moto/Lenovo didnt make any announcement..
Whats going on?

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

That site has been mentioned before... It has nothing to do with Nougat, just Android in general. The fact it appears there is not relevant.

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

android nougat is out for sprint lg g5

today there are reports that the android nougat update for the sprint variant of the g5 is out.
https://plus.google.com/communities/109302847348648973506
just look in the community and you will see...
does anybody know anything about the EU update?

I can't believe a US carrier branded variant gets Nougat before the international unlocked H850. What happened to this world...

Me to. But so is... Sprint first with nougat... Incredible... Is confirmed.
Enviado desde mi LG-H850 mediante Tapatalk

According of the news on Internet, yes it confirmed. Looks like spring is imba

LG gives a fu*k about int versions of their phones from LG G4. They'll get it about half of year after sprint version.

Never will buy a LG phone again, I read an article somewhere before that maybe int G5 nougat just coming in February 2017.

Yep, just got Nougat on my Sprint G5 this morning!

Then don't. No one forces you to buy LG phones. You are surely easy to be deceived by some man made no proof not official article from a common website.

I used to have worse experience with Motorola when it came to firmware updates
Honestly wasn't even receiving bug fix updates, at least in LG i do.
Nugget already was released in asia and now it's rolling to the sprint devices, I don't understand why everybody dont pay attention to the comments that were made by the people who actually recieved it..

I recieved the update as well

Is it android 7.0 or 7.1?

Its 7.0.
Runs great! The autobrightness issue seems to have been fixed. The display brightens up smoothly now, and does not stay dark. There is a weird bug with the LG keyboard now though. If you click backspace, it does not stop erasing sometimes. I guess it registers too many button presses some how.
Still playing around with it though. Have yet to leave the house to test real world use.

Thought the international would of had it by now!

Any improve or bug in stock camera application?
Thanks.

So far only Korean G5 and Sprint G5 versions got nougat, including beta testers. My guess, by reading the news and taking a look at Lg release cycles for G4 from last year involving marshmallow, would be that the rest of us will be getting nougat somewhere between today and the end of December. And by rest I mean international g5 H850.
