hi guys i came from LG Optimus 2x section and as LG user i have a question in my mind that bother me to consider LG G2 as one of my choice, as some of you that doesn't know LG Optimus 2x only receive 2 updates in its era, in ICS we wait for almost 1 year to get it, as i understand its looks like 90% NVIDIAs fault because of its apple like rules, so LG Optimus 2x is dropped by LG and never look at it again
so my concern is, is LG will going to update/support LG G2 for at least 2 to 3 years and provide its sources, because it is Qualcomm i know its open source but its up to LG if they will release it. Are they provide on-time update or it will end up like LG Optimus 2x and other 2011 LG units?
my very concern is the update and sources needed by the developers
i know LG G2 is a superb phone and it is a phone that is complete package, another concern about camera shutter lag is it software that can be fix or hardware that cannot be fix?

The LG sources have been out for well over a month now, this isnt an issue, where the issue is is that there are several variants, off the top of my head I believe there are 7. 7! So yeah development is fragmented because of this. Also there are 3 camera Mods that take care of any issues you will have with the stock camera app. Theres not much else to say here. Everything else is subjective and opinion till we find out more.

Hopefully they learn from the Nexus about updates, nevertheless we have a solid Dev community to assist us if LG wants to abandon us, but its way too early to make those kind of judgements, we shall wait and see
Hi Guys
I have seen many leaks of the new LG Optimus UI and it looks really nice and clean compared to the LG G2 current UI I was wondering what are the chances of this UI coming to the LG G2 do you think LG will give us an OTA update for this new UI after the LG G3 launches? I currently hate the UI and i am thinking of selling my G2 but if the UI gets updated i would definitely keep it. Interested in your thoughts. :fingers-crossed:
I belive it will eventually be released to G2 users but not for at least 3-6 months after G3 is released.
It would be silly to allow this to occur.
However, I am sure the community will extract the apk for it and allow us G2 users some early Xmas cheer
Thankyou for sharing your thoughts would be a great xmas present!

Once there is a system dump from the G3 I'm sure someone will make a theme you can flash.

Hi,
I am curious, what have others upgraded away from the LG G2? I have an upgrade ready from Verizon and while i like the G2, I am wondering if there is something better out there. I think the G3 has been out to long to make it a good upgrade.
Thanks,
Rich
I live in south korea.
and I am using LG G4 KOREAN VERSION(F500L)
I have a bad news for korean version G4 user.
Korean version will not update official Nougat 7.0.
LG Customer service said to me, "We decided , We will not service nougat 7.0 sorry and 6.0 is stablized OS for G4 "
So, The korean G4 will not update nougat 7.0
It's very sad news and this news made me very angry
Cheer up all korean version G4 users!
And Please unlock F500's bootloader

Read forum rules!
English only pls! Thanks!
I very much doubt any G4 will get official Nougat from LG.
Yeaaaa.. So i think it is the right time to say "Goodbye LG"..
If korean version not get Nougat, we sure that international not getting too.

I think the same. Many low-end/mid devices from LG already got Nougat (LG Stylo 2 for example).

Many people won't buy next phone from LG and sales will be lower because of that. In spite of many problems and terrible software updates G4 was not so bad. They want to sell new phones and have earnings but none of us will buy another LG phone after this. LG G4 had many hardware problems and they did another mistake with update policy.
Wtf LG **** you. I'll wait till April and I will go for something else. I bought this because of further updates and guess what. It won't receive any...

Sad news!
I think I have to ditch the stock camera now ;(
Why I every time find out when I buy any new phone that there is any problem with upgrading, HW issues or whatever else? :/
They should at least unlock the bootloader on 81X models so that we can move on with custom roms.
I really enjoy the phone (815P) but it'll be the last one from LG for me.
I'm not sure if it's the final/legit information or just speculations but if that's true then I feel sorry for people who bought this phone and paid full flagship price for it... At least I bought it in 2016 and paid half price but one more time it proves that we shouldn't ever buy a new Android phone as soon as it gets released because of stupid update policy, never ever!!! Only in this way we can make them hear us and keep buying last years phones so their sales go down and maybe, maybe they will hear us, otherwise it will stay like this forever. I realized it long time ago, 3-4 years that OEMs don't give a **** about customers, all they care is marketing and sales, that's all I can say to you. Lets hope for the best but from what it looks like it's very unlikely as I personally received 2 updates in last year which only had new security patch...
Yes it pretty bad... Can't even supply updates for 2 years from Launch, which is a lot of peoples upgrade period.
I'm due an upgrade in May, but I can see me waiting for the next iteration of the Oneplus and jumping ship to that.
Not sure if legit, but anyway, if they dont stick to 2 major updates, i agree, byebye..
If there will be no update for G4 to Nougat 7.0 then I also have to say bye bye LG
You won't be neither first nor last... But we have custom developers for now so we could have Nougat this way.
Lg should think wisely bootloop then no updates they Will lose msny customers me included
hey, let's be positive.. maybe LG is too busy with their upcoming G6 until they forgot that G4 is actually existed..

I highly doubt about it. If they release G6, they will focus on G6, G5 and V20. There is even lower chance getting Android 7 N for G4 after G6 release.
G3 got Android 6.0 Marshmallow before G5 was released.
Korean news; A Korean consumers' group criticized a recent LG's decision of abandoning Nougat update for G4 and V10. LG's reason being is; Because of the aging device's stability and reliability, LG decided not to offer Android 7.0/7.1 update.

That isn't official. Official is from LG directly.
This is so far away from official like seeing flying pigs.. Could be true or not.

Just think about it. Do you really think that LG will say officaly: "NO NOUGAT UPDATE FOR OUR 1.5 YEARS OLD PHONE". It would be a really good advertisement for them! Lets be critical. It's the same like if they said: Buy our current flagship - G6 and you will get terrible support, bad build quality, bootloop problem after a year, you will loose all your date when we change phones motherboard, you will wait many days and finally you will probably stuck on 7.1.1 forever. It's almost on 100% that LG G4 won't get Nougat update. All what they need is to sell new models. That is what keeps them alive. Building a new system for almost 2 years old phone is nonsense, it is, it cost money. We need to earn money, not spend money. If you want Nougat, buy LG G5 or get G6. Thats it. But many people will buy from another phone manofacturer next time after this. LG is digging it's own grave for a long time.
We barely started March dude... If you had any Asus you'd see what's slow. Just wait and if they don't deliver too bad. The phone is not that bad as it is since it's a terrible chip
Wow LG seems like they really don't like the G4 considering they are leaving it on the same Android version as it's predecessor G3. I bought this phone as a budget alternative to buying the galaxy A5 2016 .... At least the LG G4 has good custom ROM support so I'll just install lineage os if LG really decides to ditch this phone. But I'm still disappointed to see this phone only get one update in its lifetime.
Edit : *only one major update
Also: even comparing LG to other companies like Sony... Their whole z5 series including z5, premium and compact just got the 7.0 update

Until it's not from official LG sources, readable on their homepage or blog, i would say it's not official. It's just guessing...
Official??? you are crazy
https://support.t-mobile.com/community/phones-tablets-devices/software-updates#tmoSUPDocTitle
LG V10 is already confirmed by T-mobile.
About the LG G4, no official info ... do not believe in support that often does not have communication with the development team

So you're going to trust a carrier over the manufacturer?
The official line seems to be that the Nougat update for the G4 and V10 was abandoned as it wasn't stable enough for release. If you choose to believe any other source then I'm afraid you're set to be disappointed.
It's time to move on.
i imagine this on a balance.. one side how much they would spent on 7.0 development vs the other people moving away from LG.
what a re you toughts do they loose more money at developing a g4 that should be able to handle 7.0 asn the nexus 5x has nougat.
or all the people that will get angry and dissapointed. as we still in the 2 year update cycle.??
Let's make dozens of topics with the same posts. It is not over until the fat lady sings. Let's suffocate this topic, LG deserves it. Wait, only users that actually look for useful information will find it difficult with all these topics. Just my 2 (euro) cents.

I`m so sick of LG`s ****:
My LG G2 display not responding so I got LG G4 instead of buying a new display for LG G2
My LG G4 problems:
1. the BOOTLOOP
2. display burn in (ghosting)
3. battery after 10% phone dies
4. mobile data on and no signal = phone goes crazy touches all over the screen
5. the plastic back falls
6. and now no update for Nougat? wtf. LG?
The LG G6? I love it but after my history whit LG i`m so so so disappointed
sorry for the unorthodox words....
I must say I don't care much about 7.0/7.1. The g4 is working perfectly for me. What killer features would 7 bring? The upgrade to 6 did not bring many noticable improvements imho.

its not our fault they f*** with bootloops. and it still in update cycle. and lame excuse about not beign optimized.. my nuts.
Shall we make a petition??? I dont know will it work or not.
The same thing also happened with my previous phone Xperia SP where they promised kitkat update but later abandoned it. So we (Xperia SP members) filled a petition but unfortunately I didnt change anything.
it looks like a prank to me. Of course you will all bite.
a new xda member just made his 1st post and its about lg never update to nougat ? lmao....
i could do the same anytime just as a prank. pranks exist because people that like pranks exist.
i had too much fun reading it
+1 to the guy that had the idea !
