Hi, I have a serious question. I recently bought my LG G3 D850 AT&T version and I'm loving it. I rooted it and removed AT&T bloatware. I was wondering will I still get OTA update of lollipop? One more thing I don't live in the States, would I get the OTA through Google or AT&T or do I have to manually install it ? . Thanks

Yes you will still get lollipop, if you use ota you will lose root and the bloat will come back, also the ota will come through att on your phone, if you want lollipop now i recommend installing CM12, i did and i love it

Check it out. You can stop ota.

Thanks so it really doesn't matter if I live in states or in Asia ? Still will get the OTA update through AT&T? I dont have AT&T contract I think this phone was unlocked when I bought it. CM 12 is stable ? can you pls give me the direct link for it ? Or should I wait for the OTA from AT&T (which is still hard to believe that will get the update from them since I live in Asia not the USA). Thanks

Its got some bugs, id wait until theyre sorted out, and since you live in Asia id recommend flashing Cloudy G3 as its based off the international rom, and soon he should update it to lollipop, also i wouldnt flash the ota from ATT as you could lose root and most important Bump,

I read it's pretty easy to go from tesco to UK retail 4.3 my question is..... is it worth bothering and will I still get the OTA KitKat or have to put it on manually?
I see some say it will upgraded OTA but are they really guessing? because don't want to unlock the bootloader yet.

if your going to flash the retail 4.3 uk image you might as well just flash the US GSM kitkat image like many from the uk have
including my self as its the same process and all works as it should, or wait a week for official update
Hello all, so lollipop is finally released from the atnt website
is it possible for someone to catch it and make it available for a manual update like the previous 20c - 20y update. Most people use other sim cards on the device.
Thanks

That would be great, I also use the D800 without an At&t sim card. I believe last time I used a TOT file and flashed it using LG FLash tool
yeah, but the tot file is definately not out
Yep, I just saw it today on the AT&T website and was about to come here and post the Lollipop news, but you beat me. Here's a link:
http://www.att.com/esupport/softwareUpdateArticle.jsp?sid=KB423381&cv=820
It would be super great if someone could extract the kernel from this official AT&T Lollipop. That way, T-Mobile users like me can flash the official T-Mobile Lollipop, then flash the AT&T Lollipop kernel, and lastly reboot. Hopefully, that will result in a D800 running official Lollipop with WiFi calling!

Question. Both my wife and I have LG G2s. Never rooted. I got the update to lollipop notification and updated. She didn't It doesn't even show up when she checks for updates. What gives?
Hey guys, do you know anything about the marshmallow update for Virgin mobile Moto G's?
(xt1548)
Nothing so far for me yet, wearing out the system update button
Me too?
Apparently, the Virgin Mobile Varient of the Moto G 2015 ota is now being rolled out in Canada. This means soon for us US peeps! Source: http://mobilesyrup.com/2016/01/16/moto-g-3rd-gen-update-to-marshmallow-now-available-in-canada/

Unfortunately, no it doesn't. Virgin Canada is not associated with Virgin Mobile USA in any way. Virgin Canada is a completely different company and actually uses gsm phones, not the cdma phones used on VM USA. For what it's worth, VM USA is not known for rolling out updates, timely or otherwise.
It seems the only way to update the software to Marshmallow is to buy an unlocked version of the device (as I have seen 6.0 on the unlocked device at a Best Buy demo) , or unlock the Virgin Mobile one you already have. Otherwise, I think Virgin is never going to release an OTA for the update.

I thought the Virgin Mobile version was not eligible for bootloader unlocking on Moto's site? There is no other known way to bootloader unlock the device. And an unlocked version (ie. full retail version) would not be CDMA since Moto did not sell those directly or through a 3rd party like Amazon, only carriers, so it wouldn't work on VM anyway. Not to call you a liar but I don't think you were looking at a Virgin Mobile device...

No you're right - What I meant to say is that the version of the phone I saw with 6.0 was an unlocked one - not one from VM. I do not think (as hopeful as I am, still) that VM is ever going to release an update to 6.0 - They usually just release phones with the OS it comes with and that's all you get.
So is there anyway to get Marshmallow or not?9
Soak test underway begun end of April so hopefully in next few weeks
Source?
I'm on virgin mobile, with my moto g3.
I got my boot loader unlocked and TWRP along with xposed. All that works great. But everytime I go and try a custom rom I have to revert to the TWRP backup. And that works fantastic. Just takes it time.
I'd really like a mm rom for this guy. This stock rom sucks the big one.

I have the CM13 nightly flashed to mine. What do you mean you have to revert to the TWRP back up? What isn't working? The only major issue I had was the APN settings which is easily fixed.
Wipe
Flash ROM
Flash Gapps
Reboot
Flash LTE fix.
Marshmallow is out for the Virgin Mobile, Moto G3 today. Have fun, everyone!

Do you have a nandroid backup from before root? What rom/version are you on now

I have a TWRP backup should I make a nandorid? And I'm using the virgin mobile 5.1.1 xt1548 Motorola Moto G 3rd generation. Stock rom custom kernel.
It is here and it is NOT working for me. After re-flashing original recovery and riding of TWRP it loads maybe 15% and hits me with an error. No error code just the animation for a split second and it reboots.
I'm not sure if anyone has any info. The virgin mobile moto g was just it's updated to marshmallow. I'm
wondering if there's any root yet?

Standard systemless root with current SuperSU works fine, just like it does with all stock Moto Marshmallow devices.

I see that other variants have gotten their MM updates and was wondering if anyone with the H950 has the MM update yet. I've been checking for updates but it keeps saying that the phone is up to date.
Yeah it looks like we're kind of screwed :/
Stupid AT&T
They keep giving dumb responses @Ahmed_Tar Hi, Ahmed! ATT is actively working on software updates. Please stay tuned here: https://t.co/a38MAnO9G1 ^GregH

They told me this twice and ignored me twice :/
I just started getting a notification on my H950(5.1.1) yesterday that I have a software update ready to install. It said its 111MB~ but I am rooted so it keeps failing to install because my phone is "Suspected in rooting..." I'm trying to figure out how to get back to stock so I can install the OTA Update.
Edit: Nevermind, reading some of the other threads it looks like it not MM but some sort of security update.
My H950 wont even find the 5.1.1 update (OTA or Suite, doesnt matter)
I have a feeling that we wont have much luck..

Are you on AT&T? I had to put a prepaid AT&T sim in my H950 and call AT&T to push the 5.1.1 update to my phone before I got it OTA. I am on Straight Talk now but it still notified me of the new security update. You might have to get that first update through AT&T.

I bought this phone on ebay, from a korean vendor. Also, I live in Portugal, so that option wouldnt work for me.
Well, I just flashed the H950PR 5.1.1, and the changes are really noticeable.
And yes, it used to be AT&T
Help!

You would ota update with an active AT&T sim in the phone. It's been it's brought up every other day now. It's the only way.

That would be why. You'd have to have an att sim of prepaid att sim to be able to update.
