answer from lg latvia

This I got from LG Latvia on the facebook.

Google translate:

"LG Electronics Latvia: Good afternoon! In different countries, update available for the user at different times. Update multiple devices in Latvia will be available soon."
[LG Optimus G (International)] grrrr_unt:
Thanks for nothing, LG.

Thanks for nothing, LG.

Claiming that a 4.4 KitKat upgrade was coming, then saying later that it was all a mistake. Had me and many others looking forward to it for a day. Turns out to be bull, just sending us false hopes. Even made (at least) one customer send their phone to Lithuania for nothing.

First, it was LG France reporting "by the end of October", bull. Now LG Estonia says "IT'S OUT NOW!!", bull. What's next? Damnit, just update your damned phones and make your customers happy. If not, I promise you there will be a time you'll find the word "customer" foreign to you.

Learn your lesson, LG. Life's not f___ing good.
[LG Optimus G (International)] jordy1990:
They just mention AN update, not 4.4, so it doesn't mean anything.
[LG Optimus G (International)] grrrr_unt:
Hey I feel for you man. Tried calling up the service center? Maybe your phone hasn't been sent out to Lithuania yet! Hopefully it hasn't. And then when you go to the service center to collect your phone back, scream at every single LG employee until they're forced to appease your temper by treating you a meal. Lol. Good luck man.

Not sure who exactly is at fault (regional office, or the HQ, or both), but this whole thing shows LGE as a totally clueless and incompetent bunch. Jeez...

Oh well... I've always been skeptical about LG updates, so this news sounded to me more like "WTF?" than "OMG!". OK, moving on, nothing to see here. It would have been nice to have 4.4, of course (and I still hope we'll get it eventually), but I will believe it when I actually see it. :)

As mad as I am, as long as they continue to build good phones, I'll continue to buy them. Provided they have good custom ROM support.

[LG Optimus G (International)] atsimeri:
I've had many many devices in the last months ranging from iPhone 5 and nexus 4 to galaxy s4 and note 3. In my opinion hands down this is the fastest smoothest device I held in my hand and I don't see any reason for whining. LG is constantly updating the jelly bean rom which is almost bug free (I haven't found any). My kernel is compiled in September or October of 2013 and new updates are coming so I don't agree at all with opinions about abandoned phone. This phone is truly outstanding in everything it does.
[LG Optimus G (International)] 2nd Sky:
Yes but i miss some features like more qslide apps and some settings

[LG Optimus G (International)] grrrr_unt:
I hope LG fixes my problems:

1) Sometimes on 4G I only get upload and no download, I have to turn on then off my airplane mode to get it working again

2) Poor battery life

3) camera auto focus sucks

4) screen only turns on 1 second after hitting the button

5) phone heats up when running resource heavy apps

6) I want g2 features!!

Anyone else share my problems/concerns?

Okay leave LG, and buy a costly phone made with cheap plastic,(don't try to open it's back,it break your heart) and enjoy latest 5.5.9.8.7.5(kitkat,lime pie, water Mellon, banana, etc).but it isn't batter then LG's gui.
[LG Optimus G (International)] t1mman:
I don't know what you're talking about, but the latest superphone have great built quality. Even more, the latest nexus' are made by LG but without all the crapware and with a vanilla GUI.
[LG Optimus G (International)] grrrr_unt:
I love LG phones for their sturdy hardware, design, beautiful screen, software features (it steals from both Samsung and Apple, then adds a little of its own), recently its battery life (G2, G Flex), relatively cheaper price (compared to, say, a Samsung with equivalent specs, on my carrier) and the great customer service in my area. If you consider that, that's almost everything. But there's just those few little imperfections, such as a few software bugs and, the one we keep lamenting about, the lack of software updates.

I wouldn't say I would never buy LG phones anymore, because every manufacturer has its flaws. HTC has an absolutely ugly Sense UI; Samsung has really expensive and non-durable phones; Sony has the most RAM-eating UI ever; Motorola and Nexus has zero features, and tbh I might not get too used to stock UI. In my opinion, the LG Optimus UI is still my favourite in the market right now.

But what I'm saying is, if LG is willing to clean up its few flaws, that is, put greater effort into delivering at least occasional updates to us which show some significant improvements.

That would be all I ask for to name my phone my perfect phone. And I hope LG changes its mentality before it gets too late and I change my mind.

[LG Optimus G (International)] 2nd Sky:
Hi guys, give lg a try ;)

Yes, Im waiting too for KK for LG (with lg ui)

but im back to stock and its soo great!!

Why?

I use xposed!

my modules are at the moment GraviyBox, Xposed Tweakbox and XuiMod (and more...)

so i have many settings like "hold volume for next track", transparent statusbar, clock in middle. customised softkeys, other icons, other animations and some other stuff!!

so for now, stock is so fast as kk, bugfree and Perfect

now, im waiting for official KK / hope it ends not so:
[LG Optimus G (International)] sunyakram:
Agree with you
[LG Optimus G (International)] e34v8:
2 - I think battery life is good. I get two days with 3 or 4 hours of screen on time (internet connection all the time).

3 - Camera focus sucks

4 - Never had that problem.

5 - Mine runs cool. I'm comparing it to my ex phone (One X with Tegra 3), which hit 50 degr.

6 - Me too :)

LG software is not bad. A bit ugly, but fast and stable, with many options (for a stock firmware). If they update it to 4.4 and don't mess it up, it will be great. HTC updated my One X to 4.2 and messed it up.
[LG Optimus G (International)] t1mman:
The camera quality is far from being good, just test another apps and you will see the difference. OEM Cam software will be grainy and flat where another one ( like this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rubberbigpepper.lgCamera&hl=en ) will be clear and bright.

I have sent this issue to LG, had no update, no response, nothing at all... Same goes for the updates and bug corrections, it's mostly no support at all.

I'm not saying the device s*cks, nor the UI, it's the best "non stock" ui in term of performance, But the lack of support is a real downer for many of us.
[LG Optimus G (International)] kt-Froggy:
I always find it funny when people invent new device "categories", or whatever (not you, of course, but the carriers and the sellers)... WTH makes a phone "super", and why does it need to be called that way, other than to make it sound better to attract more buyers? :) But anyway... Vendor's crapware is fairly easily removed/frozen from stock ROM, so I don't see a problem here at all. But the preference for vanilla Android or vendor's GUI is really a matter of personal taste. I know about the same number of people who swear by the pure Android as those who hate it. :) I am not a hater, but vanilla Android is definitely not my cup of tea, I prefer LG UI, or even TW (but I like LG UI much more, for sure).

[LG Optimus G (International)] theofficialpimp:
I think they are just trying way too hard to be like Samsung or even to beat Samsung. They always focus on making new flagship forgetting the older flagship.
[LG Optimus G (International)] NaveenKumarXDA:
Nicely said.:thumbup:

Exactly. In the meantime while getting new consumer they totally lost old ones.:mad:
[LG Optimus G (International)] LNJ:
Not really. It is smart. If all manufacturers do it, what else would you do other than upgrade!
[LG Optimus G (International)] MarcSinger:
LG and updates? Never going to happen. If you want a newer Android iteration, buy the latest flagship. Want 4.2.2, perhaps even 4.3? Get the G2. Want 4.4? Get the G3 (when it eventually comes out). The G's not going to be updated, nor is the G2 going to be updated to 4.4 (I'm skeptical it's even going to be updated to 4.3). Six to eight months down the road, there'll be a G3, and that's what's going to get the 4.4 treatment. If you're going to purchase an LG phone, you should do so knowing very well there are never going to be updates.
[LG Optimus G (International)] kimitza:
lg is really weird. operators gave their go for 4.2 in june,nothing happened(i know from an inside source at orange romania).then 4.3 came out,same story. now,with 4.4,i think it's gonna be the same.

don't get me wrong, i don't feel the urge to update,but lg will lose many clients.

regarding those discussions with the lg official from france, well, believe me,many of those have no idea what are they talking about and they will say anything to please you:)
[LG Optimus G (International)] NaveenKumarXDA:
Wow I an actually proud to be consumer in such a era. When about all buyers are aware of everything happening. Only thing they wait is better option.

Hopefully soon there will be better manufacturer supporting customers on most priority.

[LG Optimus G (International)] Zunex95:
he/she is just saying that if for some incredible reason some kind of an update will roll out they will definitely warn us. LOL.

Or we can approach it in a different way. He/She is talking about "The update". You will be notified when "The update" comes available. Which means there is an update which is not yet avaible. Solution is. They just have to make it available. Haha this is so pathetic.:eek: I just want a god damn 4.3 or 4.4 update. :D

It should've read more like: "We will be glad to inform you IF an update becomes available." Wonder why they can't be straight. Giving us hope, only to dash it later on, which they eventually will.

I don't understand. Why would LG update their L II series (which I believe some phones are older than G and G Pro) and not even update G and G Pro?! This is pretty insane. We used to think that LG would only update their new phones, with 1 or 2 major updates. But now, they're going on to update the L II series with Knock? And the "premium" G and G Project don't get it? This is pretty insane. It's as if the CEO had his wife order him to update her L II series phone with Knock and he did.. Whereas he doesn't give a damn about the Optimus G and G Pro..

Anyone knows how we are able to contact the CEO himself and demand an explanation + a MAJOR update?
