Me too. Yesterday the secound time. Later that day I had other issues like unable to pick up phone.
[G3 General] beastobadness:
I have but I use a third party alarm now, timely syncs both and even though my s4 and g3 stand together, one backs the other one up. Timely has never failed me, both devices sound at the same time!
[G3 General] Mevolent:
I'm pretty sure that this thread is for discussing the update and not alarm apps. C'mon, guys!

On a side note, how long do you think it'll take LG to give us M?

I would rather have android m via cyanogenmod IMO
[G3 General] rmcassaf:
I tried to root my lg but I couldn't then I read a thread about it and and said I had to downgrade to K and then root it, after that update to 5.0 and then try to install cyanogenMOD.. My laptop is old and sucks so I won't risk my phone
[G3 General] winxuser:
There is no need to downgrade, there is a new way to root the device with android l. Its somewhere in the development threads

After G4 update? probably...

but after marshmallow announcement? I don't think so
[G3 General] Sp1tfire:
LG had a pretty good update track for Lollipop, being one of the first companies to bring Lollipop on their devices. International version of G3 got Lollipop in december 2014, just one month after official release of Lollipop. Of course, G3 was their flagship back then, now they will probably update G4 first, but I still think they will bring M faster than other companies.

[G3 General] Mevolent:
Try updating via LG PC Suite.
[G3 General] doctorgallo:
It told me to try LG PC Suite, but it also specifically said that the problem was because of root. Do you think I'll lose root access if I update via PC?
[G3 General] Mevolent:
Yes, you will lose root. And you will probably have to wait a little for root for that version of Android, if my knowledge serves me well.
[G3 General] doctorgallo:
Okay thanx. I think android version remains the same, but still not worth the trouble of re-rooting
[G3 General] Mevolent:
The version of Android remains at core the same, but different.
[G3 General] GamePat:
I updated from 20i to 20t via PC and then used oneclick root and it worked. So now I'm on 20t and rooted.

[G3 General] rayiskon:
Skipping 5.1.1 is a sh**ty desicion, it contains a lot of memory-handling optimizations and performance tweaks. Skipping directly to 6.0 means that they're buying time.

LG's software support is still crappy. Leaving the nexus line after many years for the g3 was a big mistake i made. Hopefully, i'm getting rid of it soon and probably picking up the new nexus or a moto instead.
[G3 General] Mevolent:
As Google, you know, the company that DEVELOP Android have their own phone line, obviously they'll update theirs first, then send the software off the the various companies who customise and further develop it for their tastes. LG, compared to others, release updates quicker than most.
[G3 General] rayiskon:
Actually, that's not how it works, OEMs get sourcecode earlier and before official release.

All flagships(including g3) got lollipop within a week or two compared to nexus. And then, it took LG 6months to get a lollipop version (a buggy one i might add) to the G2.

Nevertheless, what bothers me is skipping an important update as 5.1.1, it's not just a point update.

It's a trick to buy time, don't expect marshmallow for g3 before the end of the year.
[G3 General] Sp1tfire:
Probably LG already has the source code for Android M. I prefer to think they are already fiddling with M, rather than wasting time working for 5.1.1 and then delaying M for a few months.

[G3 General] ilooze:
That's impossible. A smartphone get's around 3 updates at least. The G3 was a flagship last year, there's no way we will not get android M. :)
[G3 General] razor100219901:
Time will tell. Don't count on that update. Otherwise there is a big chance that you will get disappointed.

Referring to many cases in history of Android Smartphones.
[G3 General] Mevolent:
The G2 got Lollipop so I would definitely count on us G3 users getting M.
[G3 General] tietganFTW:
even the optimus g got updated from ics to jellybean and then to kitkat. I would say the G3 would get marshmallow too, probably after the G4 gets it
[G3 General] :
If G2 would get 5.1.x why would we stick on 5.0 ? so you mean G2 would get a longer update cycle than the G3?

mate i think you should consider to rethink that.

About G3 Release "lollipop" it was a big joke, Nothing good were really made it is more a bumbed KK with some new bugs and just a nice way by LG to Laugh At us, because we didn't get any Material Design at all,
[G3 General] razor100219901:
Just having Android 6 on our device doesn't mean we will get the full package. I am sure, that we will get a in any way crippled version. I am also sure we won't get UX4 or what they will intruduce to the G4 in that update. Because they have to separate G4 to G3 not only by Hardware features.

Dont get me wrong. Im hoping that Lg wont make us angry. But as my experience with several android phones in past shows, that manufacturers always find technical reasons for not implementing this or that feature. Without proper drivers we also can't really count on AOSP, because some things might not work perfectly. That is my fear. I really hope you can prove me wrong.
[G3 General] DBAAAAA:
Got a notification for a new update (around 18Mb) and it won't let me update because my phone is rooted. I tried with pc suite, but it won't find my phone over usb, only with wifi does it work, but i can't update over wifi ughhh. Does anyone know a way how i can update without going back to stock just for the update? or why it won't find my phone over usb?
[G3 General] doctorgallo:
My best advice would be to check if you still have the drivers installed or if you accidentally turned of USB debugging or something

In any case, you will most likely lose root if you update but don't worry about it, the new update is rootable. Just check a couple of pages back, someone linked a good one-click root method that I used successfully today
[G3 General] :
No we will probably have a half baked lollipop M update just as lollipop halfbaked kk ...
[G3 General] :
Nah, features are the least of our worries. If they manage to reduce animation jerkiness, then i'll gladly sacrifice a feature or two.

And, unfortunately, you are right. We won't get the full package, since G4 is the flagman now.

However, driver blobs for 6.0 will be available as soon as we get KDZ, so no worries there.

Guys...We WILL have android M, it's 100% sure, the G2 get 5.0, the G3 will have 6.0 as the g4, just few months after

http://techgadgetcentral.com/2015/1...ndroid-6-0-confirmed-december-release-hinted/

And well, 5.1.1 is useless, just some adjustement, I really don't care, LG should try to optimised the G3 has the did for the G4...But they will not

That's why I'm running ASOP, smooth, fast, and If I want good battery I just flash a stock rom
[G3 General] Mevolent:
5.1 is a useful update, full of optimizations and the like. We know that we're getting M. Whether or not we're getting 5.1 is the issue.
[G3 General] TheSkyline35:
Why is it an issue ? Some US LG variants already had it, we will get it for sure on the International version and US carriers.

But I just read it can't be root now :rolleyes:

And is there really an optimisation done by LG ?
[G3 General] Mevolent:
Yes, it's a useful update! Why else would it be available if it wasn't? 5.1 holds various performance increases, security updates, and the like.

Point is, LG, by not giving us this update are stalling updates. If they don't give us 5.1 now, they'll probably release it later, forcing us o wait longer for M. It's quite a crafty thing to do. But, if what people say is right, we'll jump straight to M within a few months. Still quite a while to wait, but at least they won't stall us with 5.1.
[G3 General] TheSkyline35:
MMh I understand

However, for me, 5.1 is just for secury thing, not any performance improvement :confused:

[G3 General] Apptuners:
The reality is with the arrival of G4, we are now pushed back to the second row. The luxury we enjoyed till now is over. What our G2 friends went through for the last 1 year, is what is awaiting us. G3 got Lollipop in November 2014 whereas G2 got it only in April 2015. Similarly from now on, all software updates will first be available for G4 users. And maybe in about 2-3 months we will get the same update.

v20H (or v20I in the Middle East) might as well officially be the last "fresh" update for D855 users. Now on the priorities will be G4 and G4 only.
[G3 General] refedit:
Not sure.

Cose I had de Nexus 5(Flagship) and when there was a release, older devices as Nexus 7 received uodates prior nexus 5.

Now that I'm LG G3 user, I hope you're wrong :angel:
[G3 General] xMiklo:
Nexus devices get supported for 2 years and they're the first devices to get android updates. The only reason the nexus 5 got it later than the nexus 7 was because of bugs or similar issues...

I have little hope that we will get it soon as some of nexus 5 and 7 are dying after that update ...so I don't think other manufacturers can gamble with massive phone failures ...

Sent from LG G3-D855
[G3 General] Apptuners:
Here are the new software features of LG G4 compared to G3. We can expect some of these to be available to G3. Taken from Android Police review of G4.

The G4 now supports Android 5.0's multi-user feature for phones, which the G3 does not support. As such, LG's guest mode has been removed.

The G4 gains the G Flex 2's "quick glance" feature, which allows you to see the time and notifications by swiping down from the top of the screen while it is off.

New "smart settings" allow you to change sound profiles, toggled Bluetooth/Wi-Fi, or launch an app when headphones or a Bluetooth audio device are connected. I have no idea if these settings will be on the American carrier versions. I'd say these are similar to, though less powerful than, Sony's smart actions.

The camera app has been completely redone (see Camera section of review).

There is a new "smart bulletin" widget on the stock launcher, which you can disable (LG Health homescreen is gone, themes are gone).

Gesture settings have been removed except for bringing the phone to your ear to answer a call and flipping the phone to silence it. Toggles for flipping the phone to pause video, stop an alarm, and fade out the ringtone on pickup are gone.

Stock launcher "backup and restore" feature is gone.

Lock screen swipe effect is no longer configurable.

A number of stock apps have received minor material-esque touches like floating action buttons.

The Gallery app now allows you to sync your cloud accounts with photos to the app (this seems exceptionally redundant, though - you have to sign in twice, basically).

There is finally a flashlight toggle in the notification pane quick settings area, but hard to say if this will make it to American variants of the phone.

In the battery settings, there is a "game optimizer" toggle. I'm told by LG this just forces games to downscale to 1080p to save battery life. It is enabled by default.

One-handed mode on lock screen and LG keyboard have been removed. One-handed settings menu is gone (dialer still has one-handed mode toggle).

Stock browser app is gone (replaced by Chrome).
[G3 General] Sp1tfire:
I'm guessing some of those features depend on country and carrier, cause LG even promises clock themes for QuickCircle, along with home and keyboard themes.

Just flashed it through custom recovery (extracted the kdz as system.img, boot.img and modem.img and flashed it with "flash2") dirty. Root is no problem. It's running on my 3G D855 3GB. No problems. No changes seen until now. Just installing Xposed and Lollipoptheme and ckeck, if these things are working on the new baseband. And yes, it is still 5.0 and its not branded. Gonna report, if i see some problems after installing Lollipoptheme and Xposed (and LSpeed and CPU Throttling mod.....) with the new modem.

I must say I am a bit disappointed with LG. OK, we really cant ask for UX 4.0 now, cause it is a major G4 sales argument for them.
