LG stated that they will roll out the update for G6 after the V30, so that's why we might be close.

Yes at the end of june after LG V30 ?

when LG G6 will receive Oreo, other brands will receive Android P

That means pretty nothing for most of the users because, v30 in korea has been updated in DECEMBER 2017 , and g6 in korea still not officially updated...

What kind of ore? Is it iron ore? Maybe it's pitchblende.

:cyclops::good: Good Job LG :silly:
In the Past, i owned 2 other LG Phones, a LG KM900 Arena (got super disappointed by unbelieveable Software Bugs) and a Google Nexus 4 (Battery was too small and got broken by being stupid). Between this and now i was long Time happy with Sony Z Series. After 3 Years Sony Z3, i wanted to try LG again, cause the G6 looked good. And yes indeed it feels pretty well, really a nice Phone.
But how can it be, i buy a "Flagship" and get now Major Updates? What happened to the Manufactures? I dont get it. Most of them are slow AF with Oreo.

At the May...be lol, the bookmakers, launch the bets !!

After reading all this I am thinking about one question, which is still bothering me:
Are we even going to get official oreo this year?

First release of v30 oreo was in Korea at december 2017. So if g6 is still not updated at all I think march 2019 is reasonable date.

LG Poland in last month claimed that we are very close with the update. At the moment they have changed information and posted that 'we cant give you even estimated date'. To be honest - I start thinking that Q2 might be optimistic... My second phone - Nokia 5 is already running Oreo with March security update and this is a low-mid phone...

Anyone thinking about moving to LG G3?

A colleague at work has the LG G3. I think it's a beautiful looking device with great specs.
I'm not very fond of this whole Knox business and possible implications with warranty. So I might think about getting the next iteration (LG G4) for my next phone.
Of course, tomorrows announcement of the Note 4 might change that, we'll see.
Does anyone have any thoughts on the LG G3 compared to the Note 3?
And that was worthy making a thread on xda ? :sly:

I should have my G3 by next week, but I am not sure I will give up the Note 3 but I am interested in giving the device a try. In my region only the Exynos based devices are available so this places a limit on the availability of ROMs such as Cyanogenmod that I really would like to run. This being said the LG is also not necessarily a greener field Lg loves their locked boot loaders this can also interfere with loading custom ROMs. If you concerned about tripping Knox most things that would do that would also void your LG warranty I think.
Android Central has a great article looking at their G3 after two months and it may have some insights for you to help make up your mind.

It's boring! Noting in The Netherlands (Holland) too so far!
Guess Motorola has a lazy sunday too...
Funny about all the fuss of the Motos being the first to get the updates, now it seems like almost all of us are stuck waiting.

Well, we're still going to get it earlier than the vast majority of Android users. Only a handful of devices have it so far, and the Moto G is one of them. Our wait will be nowhere near as long as most people's.
really waiting and I think I have checked more than 100 times for the update
Portugal still waiting... Maybe more for the middle of this week..
I think XT1068 is the most sold variant of Moto G 2014...So...Why delay it for such long time?
I know some people say that the US release is like a test for a minor number of devices...but...You know...4 days is enough time to check if everything is going well... :S
It could take up to few weeks to update all G variants so relax and don't get crazy. Look at nexus 5 owners how they're complaining about bugs on L5. Is it better to wait longer and have polished version or have buggy update right away and complaint about it?

g5 plus or wait for g6 plus

Should i get the g5p or wait for the g6p? My curremt phone is pretty ****ty but i dont mind waiting a little longer if its worth it
Wait for G6... Moto g5 hasn't got oreo yet, and the G6 will probably get android 9
Support to the companion of above, I believe that it will come with Oreo of factory, and you will have access to Android P, without mentioning also a better processor, better camera, etc.
Thanks guys, have you got any idea about when its coming out?

Honestly, if the G5+ is what you want go ahead and grab it... If you look at the changes in the G line from the original until current, each generation has pretty massive changes, and not always for the better. One was good, G2 was bad, G3 (2015) was amazing, the G4 not so much, the G5/G5S is fantastic, the G6... well, we don't know but the track record is questionable here.

G6 is going to suck, i guarantee.. and not everyone like 18:9 screens
Well you can get g5 plus on a discount and its a year old model while new one will be bit costly. The g5 plus got a great camera not sure how it will turn out in g6

Exactly. I would wait till reviews come in before getting it.

What'd you do if G6 never gets Oreo?

I wonder what community thinks about this :laugh:.
Imagine that LG keeps promising about Oreo but G6 never gets it (as they did to G4).
Only some security updates and that's all.
What'd you do?

If it will happen, in autumn I will come back to xiaomi.
I didn't buy it for Oreo and it works as I expected so I would not do anything.
G6 got Oreo. In one way or another. Mine is on 8.1.
as Dejan Kruljac said, one way or another we will get 8-8.1 or P
Root will help with...

I'll continue my life without buying LG, and i'll advise the same to all i know =D
My G6 will continue to live until it break obviously, and Android update won't force me to spend more money.

Bought this LG flagship phone expecting minimum 2 OS upgrades. If they can't even provide one upgrade then I would never buy the LG products and also doesn't allow anybody to buy whom i can influence. This is for sure. What is more irritating from LG side is there is no schedules or timelines for the updates. Their PR team is the worst i have ever seen in this regard. My Indian variant can't be bootloader unlockable hence no custom ROMs either.. :crying:
Don't really care. Would like it if it was stable and doesn't slow down the device, but not really holding my breath.
Just hope that the hardware holds up and there are no failures like G4
It seems that my g6 is much smoother than it was when i bought it so they achieved it by only updating thier OS apps. Anyway lack of oreo makes this phone looks like some budget device and so the price is. I cannot imagine anger of people who paid regular price expecting flagship features. If I am going to buy new device it will be 2021 so who knows maybe lge phone brach will be non existence by this time? XD

I didn't say LG hasn't/won't got Oreo. I said that "what if"
If they stiff us with Oreo I'll cross LG off my list for future phones.
Probably root and custom rom..

Why are we (UK) always the last to get anything... Anyway in the thread above... someone in Germany has reported the pop-up.. so hopefully this week or next for us in UK?

Yeah, it's a staged roll out. We'll get it when we get it. It'll be a half-arsed effort anyway. HTC doesn't really care about the Ultra.

I dont know why because a friend of mine works for CW and when the U Ultra came out, he was telling me that they sold 100s of them, its just because HTC messed up the launch and reviewers scr*wed it over, but IMO, as a phone its fantastic.. the speakers are a little richer on the U11, but much louder on the Ultra.. also, if you experiment in the camera, the images can be brilliant.. ..
Anyway, lets hope HTC dont make UK users wait too long

I am not saying the hardware is bad, I like the hardware mostly... The lack of a headphone jack is a pain, but I knew that going in. The problem is HTC, and their lack of after sales support. At this point, they should just give us treble, and get it over with, coz U Ultra won't see an update after Oreo the way HTC is treating it.
