Yes the new UI probably and it's important but the new camera API probably not and is it really usefull for the G3 ??
[G3 General] TheIgster:
I for one would be happy to get the new UI. UX 4.0 would be nice to have on the G3 and if we can get the 5.1 or 5.1.1 update for Lollipop as well, that would be great.
[G3 General] Superuser_:
Rumors or...?
[G3 General] SickBeast:
Wow that's great news if true. Thanks!
[G3 General] TheIgster:
Let's hope, but after waiting as long as we did for 5.0.1, I would be surprised to see the G3 get 5.1 this quickly. Especially with the release of the G4 right now as well. Hopefully true though. Would be great news.
[G3 General] Sp1tfire:
Maybe they decided to skip 5.0.1 for Europe and work on 5.1. Europe models got 5.0 in December last year, while USA models jumped straight to 5.0.1 pretty late this year.

I think LG now is busy because of releasing G4 and by the end of June we will have the 5.1 :D and like last year we will get the android M by the end of December :) especially how have the 3GB version

Just read that the LG Flex 2 Korean version is now receiving the 5.1.1 update, im hoping this means we aren't that far off then. This was on gsmarena.

latest firmware

My G3 has gone back to LG for a repair on the dreaded crack at the mic and ir sensor.

The gumph that came with the prepaid envelope told me to backup my phone because they would be updating it to the latest firmware during the repair process.

Here's hoping!

I will let you know when my phone comes back later this week.
[G3 General] bboysofty:
I have the same problem, will they charge me?

Thanks a lot
[G3 General] Danchibald:
They shouldn't cause LG confirmed that this crack is covered by warranty. I got completely new phone in Croatia.
[G3 General] karlos65:
No, I sent them photos and they accepted liability. They then sent me a prepaid envelope to send it back to them next day delivery and have stated it will be returned with 5 working days.

I am hoping they change my screen too as it is scratched and if I get the new firmware it will be a win, win.

We should create "(Discussion) LG G3 Android M Update" thread and move there :silly::p:silly:
[G3 General] :
The G3 is still expected to receive an update to 5.1 and Android M will only drop in Q3 of 2015.
[G3 General] Clark Joseph Kent:
Members, last I checked, wait....let me check again. Yes this thread is for (Discussion) LG G3 Android 5.1 Lollipop Update, not IPHONE talks....

Thread Cleaned, and Thank you.
[G3 General] TheIgster:
Think we'll see the 5.1 update, but I doubt very much that the G3 will get Android M. I'm with Rogers here in Canada and the LG G2 is still on 4.4.2. They haven't even gotten 5.0, so I doubt us G3 owners will get Android M. We'll be lucky if we get 5.1. Sure wish all updates came from manufacturers and the carriers had nothing to do with it.
[G3 General] motoralbi:
If the G2 has been launched with JB,and has received kitkat and lollipop,i don't see why the G3 should not get android M...
[G3 General] TheIgster:
Yup, you may be right. My mistake. I thought it shipped with KK. We might have a chance at getting M after all.

Problem still is the carriers though. To date, my carrier here in Canada (Rogers) has not released Lollipop for the G2. It shows the current version 4.4.2 only. So just because M might be out there, doesn't mean the carrier will bother supporting the phone anymore.

http://communityforums.rogers.com/html/assets/OSUpgrade.html
[G3 General] SickBeast:
Just flash it to a different carrier. It doesn't look like Rogers is even working on it. What about bell? Or just find a debloated stock rom.
[G3 General] TheIgster:
From what I've read online, sure looks like LG Canada did not release the update to any of the carriers, even though most (all?) US carriers updated the G2 to Lollipop. Amazing. No plans for those in Canada with the G2 (Rogers, Bell, Telus, etc.) to ever get 5.0.

Of course you can always flash a different ROM, but the point is, it's not always black and white with updates. If I'm placing a wager, I would say, now that the G4 is out there, the G3 here in Canada anyway, will receive the update to 5.1 and that will be the end of the line for updates.

I like my G3, but it might be time to go back to the Nexus series phones and ensure I get updates.
[G3 General] SickBeast:
I have no issue using a debloated stock rom, personally. You don't need the carrier bloat. As for Nexus phones, they don't have an sd slot and they have become way too expensive. The G3 is a very popular phone, I think you will see that we will get updates for a long time, even if it's only custom roms.
[G3 General] TheIgster:
Yeah. I like to be as stock as possible if I can. I guess I will have to look into ROM's for the 852 that are as close to stock as possible when the updates stop for the G3. I've got this phone for 2 years now so I'll go that way if I have to I guess. Lot's of ROM's for the 855 variant. Don't seem to be as many for the 852. Not sure what is different between the two phones though. Guess that's a question for another thread.
[G3 General] SickBeast:
Cloudy 2.3 just came out, I highly recommend you give it a try, it's really nice.
[G3 General] dornz:
Where's it at already ?
[G3 General] SickBeast:
C'mon
[G3 General] KillyTheTroll:
hi everyone !

In your opinion do you think that we have no piece of news of the putting in android 5.1 for our lg g3 by the fact what lg prepare the compatibility with the new API camera2 ?

An indication would be if the kernel will be update because APIs use the kernel and the kernel use the hardware ( camera ) and if there's a new kernel drivers should be updated ( camera driver for exemple )

that's why we must wait to see if the 3.10 kernel is coming on our G3 and i hope so !! =)
[G3 General] TheIgster:
Thanks. Been staying up on it, but it seems there are still a few too many bugs for me. I'm waiting until it settles a bit and the kinks are worked out. Rooting and wiping my device to load a ROM is a long process that I want a free day for as well. I have a ton of apps and going to a new ROM, I don't want to back any of them up. I want a full, fresh install of everything. Might also wait until a newer version of Lollipop is released that the ROM can be based on as well (5.1 for example).
[G3 General] SickBeast:
There is a one click root and you can install Autorec for the twrp recovery. It takes 5 minutes, not a whole day.
[G3 General] TheIgster:
As mentioned, I want to do a FULL wipe. This means reloading all apps again from the Play Store and entering in my user information or data. I don't want to backup or recover any data to ensure a smooth transition from stock to the new ROM. I have a ton of apps. This takes time to configure everything the way I want again, including screens, widgets, etc.
[G3 General] dornz:
Hi if you root and bump TWRP then you can make a backup with all your apks and settings. So after flashing custom roms (and theres some great ones here on XDA). you can flash your backup with everything just the way you like ?i no what your saying cos im like that to
[G3 General] SickBeast:
How exactly do you do this in twrp?
[G3 General] TheIgster:
That is not a "fresh" install. Loading backed up apps with saved or cached data is not a fresh install. I know you can backup apps, but again, not a full wipe. Regardless, it takes time to do it the way I want, that's why I would set aside the time,
[G3 General] SickBeast:
Do you realize that the play store will automatically download and install all your apps for you?
[G3 General] TheIgster:
Yup. And then I have to configure them the way I want. Logins, passwords entered, etc. It takes time. Again, just something that takes time if you want a fresh install. Just said I have to set aside the time. Everytime I reload a new phone I realize I have way too many apps. ;)
[G3 General] TheIgster:
Not sure how I could say what I said any different. Sorry you don't understand.
[G3 General] biskazz:
HERE is something interesting. I expect very mixed reactions if this turns out to be true. What are your opinions?
[G3 General] copy2050:
i read this on GSMArna a hour ago...my opinion; if they will go right into Android M, will have to do it right with no bugs since 5.1 is to fix the bug's known in 5.0 so...it deserves the waiting!
[G3 General] airflyer737:
Very disappointed with LG now. I mean Android M will be released earliest in October, rather November. So we can expect the next Android update maybe 2016. Until then I will have an other phone anyway :D

Given the fact that Android 5.1.1 runs like a charm on G Flex 2 and fixed lots of problems, Android 5.1.1 is mandatory for this device. And as copy2050 already said, in the end we get with Android M

the same problems of an unfinished buggy software as we have it now with 5.0
[G3 General] :
I sent an email to LG South Africa asking when G3 users might receive the update to Android 5.1 and this is what I got in response.
[G3 General] cheeze.keyk:
its frustrating to hear that our device will skip 5.1, they are going to update directly to android M and then we are going to experience again the bugs that 5.0 have. :crying:
[G3 General] heraSK:
well, this doesn't look promising. but if it's true we'll be getting an M (which I didn't think it would happen)!

http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g3_may_skip_android_51_jump_straight_to_android_m-news-12660.php
[G3 General] winxuser:
No matter what we are still going to get Android m even if it is cyanogenmod
[G3 General] beastobadness:
If this is true then this could be a really shrewd move from LG.

With all the sites reporting that the G4 isn't really a big enough spec jump from the G3 to warrant an upgrade unless you want a better camera, LG maybe using the firmware bump to try and increase G4 sales.

And of course with 5.1 there will be the expected UX 4.0 on the G3, again this would harm sales of the G4 as UX 4.0 is one of the biggest selling points.

And then there is the bootloader unlock, it has only been made available to the G4 at the moment, another reason to buy one as a dev or power user.

To say they have not received 5.1 is total rubbish, they probably already have it ready for the G3 but have made a business decision not to release it.

I hope I am wrong, I want my G3 to be on 5.x without a custom rom and root, not stuck on 5.0 with its bugs till android M is released! But alas', I think the custom rom is calling my name once again!
[G3 General] biskazz:
THIS says we should get 5.1. Pretty confusing. Idk what's legit and what's not now.?!
[G3 General] onetik:
That link is 2 months old and has the G3 on a rather generic list without any specific info. I would doubt its validity.
[G3 General] beastobadness:
At the end of the day ALL these links are speculation and LG are the only ones that know for sure. LG might actually be causing misinformation to fuel interest in their products and we may have nothing to be worried about and 5.1 might just land on our G3's in the next couple of weeks or so.

The great thing about android is that there is always other options in the shape of custom solutions![emoji106]
[G3 General] morfeas-dsl-:
Lg Greece told today on facebook that g3 will probably skip 5.1 and go straight for the M version

[G3 General] metalgearhathaway:
indeed, I felt that way and tried some cm12.1 (5.1.1) based ROMs and have settled down with [MENTION=4794976]777jon[/MENTION] euphoria rom, everything is perfect and the performance exceeds lg kk and LP ROMs with no need for configuration. Go and enjoy people!
[G3 General] MidnightDevil:
Except for who needs or uses the camera with its full potential... unless there's a way to use camera full SDK, we aren't gonna get much better pics with CM/AOSP based of roms. I wish I could just into the AOSP wagon with the clean aosp we got but the camera is definetly a setback.
[G3 General] metalgearhathaway:
I know what you mean, but so far I've been happy with the cm camera, I also have camera zoom and fv-5 at my disposal which being different advantages as well. With playing with them, but like I say I agree with you, but you might be surprised if you play with them.
[G3 General] johnxarma:
Guys please all calm down. I'm from Greece and its my native language. I read the Twitter post from LG Greece. They said that the don't have information about the 5.1, they didn't told that we won't get it. Greek is a difficult language to translate so they just misunderstood the post ?? keep calm guys ???

[G3 General] airflyer737:
Thank you for the clarification johnxarma. The sub-offices dont have a clue what the guys at South Korea are into at the moment.

Do we have someone here who lives there or speaks the language?

If yes, you could ask LG South Korea directly. They should know whether we get Android 5.1 or not.
[G3 General] KillyTheTroll:
Yes users have to contact LG in Korea ... but that's strange because LG didn't say anything about that why ? is the update not ready ?
[G3 General] bitmad:
I think, if there is 5.1 for our phone, it is ready. And if it is ready. Lg are waitinng the moment before samsung, sony, htc release that version for their devices. Lg may want to keep everytring in secret this time, unlike the revelaing everything about G4 before it's official premiere.
[G3 General] Zerathul:
For me its more like "what is this g3? buy our newest g4!". And then after they earned enough money we will get 5.1 for g3 :P
[G3 General] copy2050:
duuh?! are you from this planet?! Even Xperia Z Ultra and some others high-end smartphones from Sony and Sammy are getting the 5.1.1. now...

before, before nothing...i think if we gonna get the 5.1.1 we are the last to get it! unfortunnaly...
[G3 General] joooe:
Just let the LG G4 sell what it has to sell first. Pretty obvious.

[G3 General] Renejo:
Of course LG won't update the G3 anytime soon. The bigger the difference with the (high priced) G4, the better it is for LG. Their primary aim is to attract G4 buyers. Not to please existing G3 customers. IMHO, of course.
[G3 General] rocco6victor:
I've been reading lately that sales for g4 aren't as good as expected and I wonder if the treatment g3 users are getting has anything to do with it; after all if my g3 had the lag and Wi-Fi issues many users describe I would hardly talk good about a company that doesn't update their last year's flagship to boost sales of the new one...
[G3 General] Mevolent:
Because my post was deleted, I shall ask this again. (probably for the greater good, we don't want anymore of that, now! Do we..?)

Positive response from customer support on Android 5.1

I asked LG UK Customer support about Android 5.1 on the G3 and got this surprisingly positive reply about it:

So fingers crossed!
[G3 General] SickBeast:
Nice!
[G3 General] gyaku_zuki:
Ditto - playing a little dumb on the 'hacking the camera into the phone bit' ;):

So fingers crossed. Shame about the camera though - would prefer a legit update of this to avoid the bugs. Seems a bit *meh* that they are gonna sit on it for only commercial reasons to sell G4s even though it looks about 90% compatible already.
[G3 General] karlos65:
Not many companies will update an older model to their newest flagship model for free as this would impact on sales of the newest model.

This might come as a shock but LG are actually in it to generate revenue.

German website says 5.1.1 is in final testing stage and will be ready in two weeks.

Furthermore they say UX 4.0 is also coming with the 5.1.1 update.

South Korean versions of the G3 will get the update first, to be followed by international variants "some weeks after".
[G3 General] SickBeast:
If it will be ready in Germany in 2 weeks then that means that the Korean release is imminent.
[G3 General] Sp1tfire:

I did actually know that ;) my point is, I think that given clearly there is no hardware barrier to the Camera 2 API for the G3, I would have liked some sort of update. Not too bothered but would simply be nice to have the manual camera controls.

Yeah but in the UK ( as I am sure you are aware :o) lot's of people are on a 2 year update cycle with their carriers,I would like to move to the g4 but I wont be able to until nov next year, if LG are holding back updates on their phones then I will be more inclined to move to another manufacturer. I don't think I would be the only person on being deprived of possible updates during those 2 years would lose faith with LG and I believe may that have a larger detriment to revenues, perhaps?
