hey guys although i havent find nothing online that said so but a seen a few people talking about it in threats and even a tmobile sales men told me that there suppost to be a another ota for the g2x. some people thinks its gonna be 2.3.4 and have the LG Camera in it?
im just wanted to pass this along
and i will appreciate no hateful comments against LG/Tmobile.
we have this phone and we just go from there
Well, we're getting ICS either way thanks to Cyanogen... But it would be nice if LG and T-Mobile still showed some love for our phones!
I kind of doubt we will see another OTA update anytime soon but if we do great.
T mobile is all about the Sensation and Galaxy S 2, and LG has had enough if this fiasco of a phone. Cyanogen is the only hope of this ever getting another update, of any flavor.

i guess you guys are right!! i just cant understand when tmobile gave my friend from tmobile tech support a g2x with gingebread for test when the g2x came out!
it was 2.3.4 and their ota its 2.3.3 i talked to my friend today to see if he heard anything of another ota for the g2x. he said no he hasnt heard anything and pretty much they have forgotten or given up with the g2x.
my opinion on this is if this phone isnt going to be that much of a deal to companies. well i thing NVIDIA should release their drivers to the devs!!!
and another thing this is suppost to be a GOOGLE phone! why google aint doing nothing!

and you have to be a jerk to a person that is just asking a question why.
maybe i should google that too.
The guy makes good points and is upset he threw his money away you have to add to that by being a jerk?
If the "OTA" is going to be 2.3.4, it's going to be outdated. We've been on 2.3.5<-- for almost 2 months now. (Well, with CM7, EB, Faux123, MIUI, etc.)
well that would be nice to see 2.3.4 at least.. maybe they can make the damn 4g icon and signal bars green like gingerbread is suppose to be. then give us the lg cam back then hopefully give us gtalk with video chat.. since skype hates tegra 2's and wont support are phones.. i shouldnt have to root my phone to get things that should just work with a stock rom.

Correct, it's just with google on the back of the phone like the G2. Only Google phones made are the nexus line.
Hell will freeze over before this phone gets another official update. If you wont root and update it yourself but are savvy enough to use xda you have no one to blame but yourself.

The difference is that the devices in the Google Nexus line have their roms developed by Google engineers. Other devices must rely on the respective manufacturer to update them. On the Nexus line Google also pushes out the OTA themselves and never takes them down like T-Mobile did for the G2X. That was lame. Why not keep the OTA on your servers forever like Google does. Plus Google lets anyone get the OTA on any carrier. TMO limited it to people connected to their network (not even MVNOs) only. Since Google does their testing of new versions of Android on their own Nexus line, new roms get pushed out pretty darn fast. Soon, alas, they are going to declare the venerable Nexus One end of life (EOL) and stop providing roms for it. It might get ICS but we'll have to wait and see.
But the G2X is a great phone and the differences between 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 and 2.3.6 are so minimal there is nothing really to be upset about. No O2X worldwide has even gotten any official versions of GB yet, so you can be thankful, for once, that the US is a litigious society and the class action forced LG to release GB before they planned to. But now that they did, any future versions are questionable. LG doesn't have a good record of updating phones very often or very quickly.
i almost got to the point where i was gonna trade my g2x for a nexus s just because its a google phone and i know it will always be updated fast. but its hard to down grade from the g2xs nice specs

if/when ics does come, how long do u think the g2x will stay relevant in the market? Cause it does got blazing specs.Yeah there is gs3 out and all the htc Ones but they just dont seem "quality" products to me. only other thing im considering is the galaxy nexus. I think if ics came out the g2x should be able to last another year or two until google brings out something completely new like key lime pie or kettle corn. If ics does come out then ima wait till the next gen nexus with next gen android is out
Possibly good news from our good friend Paul O'Brien. He says it's definite and even "imminent" for the 2X.

I've been searching all over and ive found nothing. It's the begining of a new year and I'm starting to think we're not getting a lollipop update anymore..
I always believe all model branded by us carriers will get any update last of all other makes.
Yeah, it's been that way pretty much with every phone I've ever owned. I wish phone manufactures wouldn't allow carriers to intervene. But at least usually an international ROM is ported over to the us models.. I wish someone would do that
I just want it to come so i can get the latest cloudy.
Right. That's the ROM I wanted to use.
Custom Roms.
That's why we use custom roms. The unofficial cyanongen is a good substitute for a lollipop update.

Really??? When have you ever known AT&T to let anyone know about an update until it is in process? I think we will get an L update for two reasons. AT&T has always seemed to allow at least one major upgrade of versions and the phone is barely 6 months old.
Besides that, the rollout of L for international G3s started less than 2 months ago. U.S. carriers typically take time to "test" (i.e. install their bloatware and figure out how to lock down the phone) the new updates.
Yeah I'm getting very fed up with all this too... I use liquidsmooth in the meantime and it works great, but I just miss the LG camera... Also other features but mainly the camera... I had the nexus 5 before this phone and I loved the timely updates... Too bad it don't work the same with this phone...

I was being a little over dramatic. I know eventually we'll get an update, but instead of trying to add all that bloat and strip things from the software they should be trying to get it out for the users as soon as possible.

Unfortunately this is the case with all android phones and tablets. The latest and greatest hits the Nexus lines first. Other phones are at the mercy of the phone manufacturer (as well as the carriers in some cases).
With all the custom roms and cm12 for our phone right around the corner. Who needs an official bloated at&t L Rom. Custom roms run so much better than stock anyway. .....and L is good but very over rated K.K. 4.4.4 is working great. Be patient you will get your stock at&t L by the latest March
********************************
Update today I got a notification to update I am ON stock d85010d
I have the phone a week this was my 1 st notification I wonder if this is the 10f or something else I haven't rooted yet. Did anyone else get this today and if so what is it ?
It's 10f I got the notice today as well. If you are rooted it will not break root.
I believe it'll come to us soon but I can care less if the update comes. I'm fine with what were using now.
the only problem with all the Lollipop Roms we currently have is that the camera app sucks, we loose 4K recording, Laser Focus, Slow motion and front facing flash. Plus the quality of the pictures is not even near to the quality of the stock camera.
1cwolf has been rooting the stock roms and tweaking them I am sure he will do the same when L drops. He is making debloated ver also. That's prob what I'll stick with cause the stock Rom does run very good. I always get better WiFi with stock roms more powerfull WiFi signal

What size was the 10F update? I am betting that is a small update before lollipop comes in...
let's not forget...the AT&T G2 was one of the first phones to get KitKat. Besides Nexus devices are there any other devices with Lollipop? LG is moving pretty quick to get the international version of Lollipop out. Where is Samsung and HTC with Lollipop for their devices?

I understand the craving for an update, but it seems every week there's a new thread asking when Marshmallow will arrive. I understand the irony of this statement, but please do not make anymore threads asking when the update will be out. Those are questions better suited for your carrier (I'm sure they have forums). Threads promoting discussion about Marshmallow are okay, such as asking what you're looking forward to most, but simply asking when it's going to be out is not making it come any faster.
While you're waiting, try flashing some of the ROMs, Kernels, and recoveries that our fantastic devs so graciously provide to us for free. @TEKHD, @jovy23, @foreverloco, @dr.ketan, @arter97, and @UpInTheAir (If I've forgotten anyone, I apologize) have all done amazing work for our device on the current version of Android. Take this time to test out their ROMs/kernels and if you get bored, flash another one. Explore all the settings and options. There is a lot you can do with what you've been given here.
Sorry. Rant over.
Thank you for saying what needed to be said. Although I am currently on the latest ROM and kernel from @TEKHD and @UpInTheAir, I was stock for the first 5 months of owning the Note 5. It runs more than fine on 5.1.1, and for everyone complaining that the M8 or M9 are getting MM on T-Mobile before us, there's a good reason for it. HTC has released MM for the international models and Samsung hasn't yet. T-Mobile can't release what they don't have.
I am also running stock 5.1.1 with root on my N5 and it's perfectly fine with LP. I'm in no rush for the MM update. There's a chance it may bring issues along with it and I read somewhere that it would be some time in March when we can see the update. Everyone just needs to hang tight.
@NotATreoFan @tamelion1117
Well said, sirs. I'd personally prefer to wait longer if it meant that most of the bugs and issues are ironed out when it finally hits our device. A solid, smooth update that comes a tad late is better than a half-assed buggy update that comes immediately.

Just what needed to be said, it may not have the new software, but I love my Note 5 just the way it is, and when Marshmallow comes out, it will be even better.

People generally feel there need to want the latest and greatest, in this case, the most up to date version of Android. I personally don't think MM will add much benefit to the note 5 because 5.1.1 is already quite good. Especially when you compare it to previous versions on tw.
If you want mm so badly, simply sell your note 5 and buy a nexus 6p. ;p it's crossed my mind a few times.
I was just thinking about this. As soon as an upgrade is pending many people all of a sudden seem to be unhappy with the phone until they get it.

Word. Nevermind that 5.1.1 runs like a bandit on the Note 5. Doze and permission control will be nice, but Samsung implemented the app optimization feature and the ROM I'm running right now has permission control as well. I'm not sure what else people want.
I'm sure the same people crying for the update will also be the ones to pin point and complain about every minor bug like it's some experience-breaking issue.
Just wait until it arrives and 37 threads pop up from sub 50 post users all notifying us of the update. Just trying to boost their thanks/post count and acting like little kiddies. I remember the note 4 general thread when an update dropped.
Anyone that is getting ansy for the MM update should read up on the 5.0 lollipop update on the Moto X 2014, my previous phone. Was one of the first to get the update, and so it had all the bugs. Didn't ever get totally sorted out, although 5.1 made it much better.
It could be around the corner:
"Samsung Galaxy Note 5 - February 2016"
Sammy is working on it, which means we'll likely see it late in the summer...ish.

It looks like the AT&T Note5 has a beta test that just went live today, not many testers but someone that is on XDA got it, might be some kind of beta firmware floating around in the not too distant future. Also good news that Samsung is getting that far on any carrier, might have something for Tmo in the not so distant future.

Take this with a *HUGE* grain of salt, but I would suspect they're testing MM on AT&T because they're the largest GSM carrier in the US, and they also love to modify the builds more than T-Mobile does.

Yeah, my hope was that since moto was dragging feet on the 6.0.1 and the monthly security updates that we would see Nougat earlier than most, but I then wondered why did they release a May security update at all. So that thought sent my hypothesis that they were working on a Nougat release right out the window.

They can't with on nougat until Google releases the source code. Motorola/Lenovo has also confirmed security updates will be quarterly vice monthly. They probably have a limited number of software engineers and developers and 6.0.1 honestly didn't really show that it could bring much in additional features to this phone. With nougat, there are reasons to move forward with the release.
Maybe this will fix the audio stutter with LTE calls on T-Mobile.
I know this might seem stupid but cant we port the nexus 5x factory android 7 rom?
I wouldn't bank on getting Nougat. Let's not forget how quickly Lenovorola dropped the 2014 Moto X in terms of Marshmallow. I know the unlocked variants eventually got it, but it took awhile.
I've this bad feeling in my gut our phone's support is going to be cut off. It's just like during the days of waiting for the Atrix to get 4.0 only for it to get canned.
Hope for the best, but expect the worst.

I wouldn't say we have to get it, but not offering major update support for a flagship type device up to 18 months after release would be a bad move by Lenovo. It would definitely push me away. I can deal with fewer less frequent security updates as well as bypassing minor ones (6.0.1), but a major one that this device can easily handle is expected.
Getting flashbacks to the Atrix 4G's journey to 4.0. What a time to be alive.
This being a new Motorola in ideology, so-to-speak, I'm optimistic, but it doesn't bode super well that they've already directed resources away from security updates. But who knows, maybe they did that to work on bringing 7 up.
Too bad they don't just tell us what's happening.

That is something I have always wished for in an OEM. I guess they keep silent not to get hopes up, only to crush them later if something doesn't work out, but some sort of information would be nice. At least tell us it's being worked on, or what is being worked on.
