This is the response i got a couple days ago. So im not sure whats going on.

In response to this inquiry, we have received feedback that LG devices that are in the Lollipop software will no longer get the update for Lollipop but will instead go directly to Android Marshmallow once it has been fully tested with compatible devices.

However, this update would still be discussed by LG, Google Android, and the network carrier as we work hand-in-hand with them to update the software. Also, since this would require a lot of testing to make sure it will run smoothly and not cause any further glitches on the device and to ensure that it will be compatible to the hardware; I’m afraid we can’t commit to an actual release date. I hope you understand. We’ll keep you posted as we receive information about this update, though. You may also visit our website once in a while at http://www.lg.com/us/support-mobile/lg-D800 for information.

Guys ! stop supporting such kind of rumors unless you are best friend of LG CEO or downloading Android 6. Its a well known story ..first we heard rumors and then somehow (depends upon mood of OEM) we got upgrade and then start crying about bugs ..problems..battery ..UI.

First it was Lollipop and now it is 6 .. And then people want to revert back .. HOW TO REVERT BACK ?:cool: Just wait for some more days and i often wonder why people talk about OTA on XDA ? I mean you are here just because you rooted your device ..your love..beast..puppy ..kitty whatever you call that 500$ machine , and you know you are not going to get an update :rolleyes:

[G2 General] Ximo F. Verde:
Hmm this thread looks a lot like the notorious Optimus 2X ICS update one. Any old O2x owners here will def know what I'm talking about.. Point is though that LG already has updated the G2 twice (JB->KK->Lollipop) and as far as I know that's as far as they've ever gone on any of their flagships (correct me if I'm wrong). It's definitely not a matter of specs. More like a matter of resources used in a 2-year old device and maybe a matter of internal competition. That was already seen when LG gave no support for camera2 api on the G2 & G3 in order to boost the manual camera features of newer devices like the G4. That, especially considering that the G2 is still a very capable device that can be bought new for 300€ or less.
[G2 General] LilProphet:
Yeah I remember that O2x update. G2 is more popular than any of their earlier flagships IMO, so let's hope that we'll be lucky again.
[G2 General] giladriv:
I think our best chance is to get 5.1.1 if anything... Sory to bum you guys
[G2 General] sheppii:
All of you, who want Marshmallow, tell me honestly, what do you expect from it? It is actually almost the same as Lollipop, only with some minor changes, so I don't think it will be much different from current 5.0.2, which is definetely not the best Android ever.

Well, we will see how good MM will be on G4 next week if LG release it as they promised.
[G2 General] Mashed_Potatoes:
Performance. 5.0.2 has memory leaks and inconsistent performance, and 5.1.1 is much much snappier & quicker at opening apps. 5.0 to 5.1 is mostly performance improvements

5.0.2 ran slow even on my old Nexus 4.......later when i updated to 5.1.1 it was as fast as G2 on KK
[G2 General] Masteryates:
I have to agree, 5.0.x was rubbish on my Nexus 7 2013. Only 5.1.1 was any good and I'm still not sure it was any better than KK.

I'd like to see LG release firmware 20i which fixes the Stagefreight bug on KK. :angel:
[G2 General] Hnk1:
Actually, I do not think LG G2 would be getting any Marshmallow magic, sorry but that seems the truth.

The news about G2 running Marshmallow seems fake. What the best thing that can happen for us is that someone like cloudyfs can PORT G3 Marshmallow rom for us as he has done in the past. That could be awesome.

Plus we are already seeing, CM13 in the works for LG G2. So certainly we are getting AOSP and CM for this device.

Officially, 5.1.1 would be great if not 6.

Just my two cents
[G2 General] zelendel:
After talking to some that do have Android 6 I hate to be the one to tell you but the memory leaks are still there.

As for stage fright that was blown up more then it really needed to be.

If you really want android 6 you may have to ask yourself if LG gimmicks are worth it, as the only 6 builds we will most likely see will be aosp builds
[G2 General] tuncay_93:
The point is LG have made really a great phone with the G2 it has something you can't really put your finger on it has personality of some kind. Its something you buy according to your heart not the specification paper.

It is so sad LG couldn't capture that magic again with the G3 or G4. No matter if they will update it to 5.1.1 or 6.0 or if they will leave it with 5.0.2

It doesn't matter it has no removable battery or it has no SD card slot. For me its just the best phone in the whole world if you feel the same about it just leave LG stick their 6.0 somewhere they like.
[G2 General] Izy:
Good joke cloudyfa only ports themes/features from newer other flex pro g3 g4 roms into current roms.

That aside then he does nothing i already pointed out on multiple occasions that 80% of his updates were kernel only or play store. Yet he requires you to redownload a 1.2gb+ rom when he could make a 50mb patch.

Gotta love that one time he updated cloudyflex and ALL his update contained was playstore and all the features dorimanx added to his kernel almost 2 months beforehand.

That aside cloudyfa would also require the 6.0 rom to be released for G2 because he he uses official rom as base.

Not like anyone has heard from him since july also.

[G2 General] Killer9090:
I heard that CM13 is actually in development for G2 (slowly, but still) so I'm not worried, and now I'm happy with CM 12.1. Not waiting for LG's 6.0 though - their Lollipop was one hell of an overheating son of a *****. And a major battery drainer.

---------- Post added at 05:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:56 PM ----------

Now that I think of it, I've heard the Fiio stuff and even that would probably provide better audio for you. And these won't break the bank. The E6 is just an amp, but is super tiny. The E17K is a full DAC / AMP.

It uses the one integrated in the Snap810.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sewannabe:
Since the G1 I have been chasing a good camera and good audio. In my opinion the Nexus devices have not had either. As such I have gone through many non-Nexus devices trying to find one I'm satisfied with. Through various flagships if I am happy with the camera and audio I inevitably dislike (usually hate) something else about the device. This has resulted in an approximate 6 month upgrade cycle, which, is not particularly fiscally responsible. Over the last three years my original Nexus 7 continues to work without issue. The audio on the N7 is terrible so I don't use it for that. An N4 and N5 were sold after about 6 months because I did not like the camera/audio in those devices.

I would happily pay extra for a Nexus device with a dedicated DAC and headphone amplifier ala the LG V10. If the DAC and amplifier from the V10 were in the Nexus 6P I would be over the moon. For me the DAC/amp quality remains the largest open question with the Nexus 6P. I have mobile DAC/amps that I now only use at my desk as with IEMs the difference in sound quality is not worth the hassle when mobile/active. Anyway I hope in the future a very high quality dedicated DAC and amplifier combination comes to a Nexus device. Until then I really really hope the 6P makes me stop looking for something better for at least a year.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tgearman:
I've been using my HTC M9 > OTG > Fiio Andes > Shure se535s with great results. Much better audio than straight from handset to IEMs. Hoping for similar results with 6P. Volume is never an issue with the Fiio in the signal path.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elnrik:
I'm going to see how long i can stay stock Marshmallow with my next phone. Considering this, I was very torn between the N6P and V10. It would be fantastic to ditch the external amp/DAC and rubber bands with the V10. (ESS Sabre! F YEAH!) Not sure which phone will end up having the better camera. I also don't care for the LG UI at all! So, Having the latest updates and general nexus flexibility won the day. It was such a close decision that it still gnaws at me though.

Posted this in the Official Review thread but know it'll get more attention in this one.

Headphone Output Voltage (Volts)

Apple iPhone 6 1.017

HTC One M9 1.022

LG G4 0.764

Samsung Galaxy S6 0.54

Google Nexus 6P 0.34

Google Nexus 5X 0.287

Paltry numbers which is what I expected. Clean but soft. Great loudspeaker results though.

Loudspeaker Loudness (dB)

Apple iPhone 6 74.5

HTC One M9 72.8

LG G4 79

Samsung Galaxy S6 73.7

Google Nexus 6P 78.4

Google Nexus 5X 69.2

Went to the Phone Arena 5X Review Multimedia section and added the 6P to the list. Waiting for the GSMArena results now to get the full rundown.

I like the speaker output on 6p though!

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sewannabe:
Disappointing

You caught my attention in the General thread and I was going to quote you over here. Where did you find the headphone output test results on the 6P? I did not see them on Phone Arena but may well have missed it. I am looking forward to GSMArena test results. Or at least I was. The numbers you posted show a weak amplifier was used. That indicates that audio system quality was given short shrift. As previously stated in this thread the DAC/Amp is my remaining concern for the 6P. The apparent improvement in the camera had me hopeful that significant improvements in the audio might be coming as well. For now that looks decidedly unsure.

http://www.phonearena.com/phones/Google-Nexus-6P_id9587/benchmarks

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sewannabe:
The Fiio amp has a Wolfson DAC that is the same as in many flagship phones e.g. iPhone, Samsung, etc. I have had multiple older HTC flagships but not the M9 and in those devices they used a stronger amplifier with a crap DAC i.e. paying lip service to audio quality. Assuming the post above is correct and the M9 uses the Qualcomm integrated DAC that explains one component of the improved audio you experience. The Fiio amp also has a very modest amplifier, which, as you point out for IEMs is more than adequate for the purposes of volume. You do not mention amplifier distortion (generally inverse relationship to volume) and the Fiio amp you are using likely provides a small improvement in distortion. If my assumptions above are correct you why you experience improved audio is obvious. Of importance though there is absolutely no reason that you should have to carry another device to see this improvement. The Fiio Andes is a $100 device (component cost likely less than $20) that is effectively the audio system in the iPhone with possibly a slightly better amplifier.

I hope I am not coming across as a jerk here as that is not at all what I am trying to do. My device history is littered with these unecessary tradeoffs. The iPhone consistently delivers and Apple markets very good audio quality. When we consider Android manufacturers specs race with Apple (display, camera, etc) it is my opinion that audio regularly gets short shrift and that does not make sense to me.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sewannabe:
I currently have the G4 and the UI is terrible and the camera is very inconsistent. HTC phones have been wildly inconsistent (signal, wifi, etc), the components fail (camera, speaker, etc), and their commitment to audio quality is more pomp than circumstance (e.g. Beats with a meh DAC and decent amp). Samsung's hardware is good but the UI is more obnoxious albeit more polished than LG's; I have not kept any Samsung phone more than a couple of months so I am not sure if I would get the component failures like I have with HTC. Motorola's have had great signal and have been very durable but have been locked down, had terrible audio quality, and poor camera performance. All devices have been flagship models. None of them have received quick or even consistent updates. If they were carrier versions of the device they are loaded with bloat. Thus, to get decent performance I have flashed many custom ROMs with very inconsistent results and myriad other issues associated with the more locked down devices. I have not tried the more niche device makers because of concerns about developer support although I am sure there are or have been some good ones if I would have looked more closely. Throughout the Nexus devices get consistent updates and continue to work well even when the component specs are in terms of tech ancient (e.g. Nexus 7). At one time I regularly used custom ROMs but as I no longer have the time to keep up with that path I have sought to move to stock over the last year or so.

That's all a long winded way of saying I want a stock Android device with an ESS Sabre DAC and ESS amplifier. I want the Android VS IOS spec war over display, camera, etc to come to audio quality as everyone will benefit. In summary, "ESS Sabre! F YEAH!".

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mosincredible:
I wouldn't worry too much about the voltage as long as you have high sensitivity headphones. My 2 pairs of portables are 125db and 111db SPL so I shouldn't have any volume issues. Practically any portable product gives me enough volume. The numbers you should really pay attention to are the frequency response, distortion, & crosstalk which GSMArena will provide when they finish their review.

So far saw review that Nexus 6p has lower than usual bass quantity. Definitely not a go-to phone if you're primary concern is audio quality from the headphone jack. Add that to the lack of micro sd card and low headphone output.
