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

We will According to this source, we will recieve the update in 2015.
http://www.phonearena.com/news/The-...ew-interface-Android-L-Version-update_id59682
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.

Yeah, all of us speaking about L update according to Italian blog.
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. -.-
Cant wait to see if there will be any leaked pictures of 5.1. Hope lg is working on it... How does everything think it would run on this device. Slow? Same? Better?

None.
You all can ask them on twitter so we can get some answers.
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
If you like to be update in the same time on all your differences devices pass to the other side

But I guess you're not a newbie to android. Anyway. It's compatible. OnePlus said the release will be in Q1. So it should be there before March.
I don't know what takes them so long. Their OS is almost all stock android except for few customisations.

drivers, optimizations, bug testing, security, enhancements, adding skins also Google certification!
Yeah exactly. OOS is near stock. Moto g3 is running MM but we're still waiting :/ and should probably wait till the last day of the Q1. Or probably they'll miss even that date and come up with an apology letter like they always do :/

I am pretty sure drivers are written usually by the hardware makers, so that'd be Qualcomm for the SoC or whoever made the fingerprint sensor, camera, other sensors etc. Skins - I ain't seen much skinning by OPO except for changing the dark mode and colour of stuff when in dark mode. Security - this is why they need to release latest android, because google is fixing 100's of issues.
Anyway I am shocked that even the slow manufacturers like LG have upped their game and have 6.0 and Samsung has leaked theirs too. I usually wouldn't care but custom ROMs not that attractive without Fingerprint sensor and Laser AF.

Question: what happens if you hide the navigation bar? I mean, how did they replace Back - Home - Recent buttons?
Aaand: is there a dark theme built-in by chance?

When you hide the navigation bar, you slide up from the bottom to get it back when you need it.

I use to be a "gotta have it now" and would flash pretty much any rom that came along, when I had the Dell Streak 5, and the Galaxy Note (1). Since I got the Mate 2, then the 8, then the 9, I haven't flashed anything but OEM official builds, haven't even bothered to root or screw with it.
For me, my experience with Huawei, their roms have been so stable, I haven't had the urge to jack around with it. I don't mind you guys doing it though, makes it easier for us old timers that don't want to bother with it anymore.

Me too. There really isn't anything else for the Mate if you wanted to flash at least officially or on here. But yeah, I can't really think of anything I want that it doesn't already have. Nothing I could really improve. I thought I was all 100% for the Pixel 2 but now I'm thinking Mate 10!

Of course, everything I want but even faster and longer lasting. Less body to screen ratio is always welcome too. Tmobile's new 600 mhz support would also be great.
I would want Wireless charging, then I would upgrade to the Mate 10, if not I will keep my Mate 9.
I would like to get a current Security patch though
@duraaraa
Hi mate,
What is the kernel number, is it still 4.1.18 or it got up to 4.4?
Do you actually feel any real life difference in general at all between Nougat and Oreo?
Do you think that stand up time/drain has improved as to the few wake ups restrictions in Oreo?
Anything significant that you like/hate or is changed?
Thank you for your reporting here!

The kernel version is showing as 3.10.20-20436-468, built on Sep 14. Security patch is September 5. Whether or not it's reported correctly, I don't know.
I'm not really using it as a daily driver, but it does feel a little bit different. Some of it may be because of Android O, some of it may be because of EMUI 6. It seems smoother, but that's so objective.
Drain seems better than before, but I haven't done an actual scientific comparison.
I've not yet found anything major to like or hate.
Some other people are installing this build now, so hopefully they will chime in with their opinions.
As long as it's not a very well made scam it seems Motorola just made official that the Android 8 update is ready: https://mobilesupport.lenovo.com/us/en/Solution/MS126318. I can't verify it since it always takes a bit till everyone gets the OTA, but the website seems to be the official one.
Has anyone received it yet and can shed some light on it like have they finally made it 64 bit (I know, good joke) or if they finally have a working F2FS implementation so Magisk can be installed without some workaround?
And how is battery life looking? I mean it's already great but was Google able to make it even better?
EDIT: was too good to be true. They just removed that website. They really know how to hold the tension
that's good news. i only hope they didn't mess up the battery...i'm waiting a bit to do the update to make sure they didn't ruin it

If Motorola shares the information about the update, it's definately coming soon (maybe this week).
I don't care if someone has "different information" that can't be discussed.
Can't wait for it, i might go back to stock (+ xposed) or look for a 8.1 custom rom, i think after the official update there will pop up many updated ones soon.
