Please can you confirm if in videcamera menu the option live effects is missed ? the camera quality is ok ?? I had problems when I updated in Taiwan rom , live effects in video recording missed and the quality of the camera was much worst than with kit kat this is because I came back to kit kat, at present I have SEA (Singapore) rom and I would like to update but I have panic because I worry that the same problems remains.

Ok. Thanks, would be appreciated if tomorrow or so you can confirm battery drains or not, also I remember when I updated that the charging time was 1 hour more than the usual 90 min and the bright in automatic was changing without a reason it was with the Taiwan TWN rom maybe as Singapore has been out 3 months later this updae better, I hope so. anyway it would be very goog if after a few days you can post here any improvementes you can see in the phone, thanks again for your help.

Yesterday I have updated my LG G Pro 2 D838 (SEA - Singapore) to Lollipop v5.0.1 V20A firmware. I have tried then to root this firmware using DP Tools but had no luck. My phone goes properly into Download mode but it's always stuck at 0%. I had to remove battery to boot my phone and it's not rooted. I have tried this several times but always get this message:
Any clue to resolve this problem? Thanks!

Night mode also missed in front photo camera menu with lollipop ?

Would you be able to provide aome sort of zipof the whole rom i die die need this rom my network has problems with the custom rom im on and i dont have any trace of my previous stock rom.

OK.
Confirmed that few camera and video modes have been taken out from official lollipop.
Battery drains about 10% faster than KitKat.
Battery charging is about 10% slower too.
However, I can live with those shortcomings. Not an issue for me.

U might want to unroot and or remove custom recovery.
My phone kept booting into custom recovery and could not get pass custom recovery.
I had to use adb to push a custom rom into my phone internal storage and flash the rom before I could restore it to original firmware using KDZ.
After restoring then download the update pack and run it again then no issue.
Good luck

I don't know if we'll ever get that. This release may be the last one for a long time.

T-Mobile software update - not Kit Kat

Didn't see this posted so I thought I'd share. I bricked my phone and used the LG Mobile Launcher upgrade recovery. The software it installed ended in g, not c. Don't know what it fixes, but zoom breathing is still present while recording a video.

Ive tried twice now to update and it keeps failing. Im stock unrooted. It downloads and gets to 70% then jumps to 100%, phone restarts and on the phone gets to 4%. Then the computer says it cant continue the upgrade and to restart the phone.

Not yet. Do you think ioroot will work? That's how I rooted on d80110c. Is there another root method that will work with any stock rom since ioroot says it's only for the shipping rom? I'll try later tonight as I don't have 45 minutes right now to go through the upgrade process should I brick my phone again.

yeah, I don't think they did anything to the camera. It still has that annoying breathing issue with the focus. They might have fixed the Knock Knock issues some people were having with the screen not coming on consistently. I haven't noticed that I have had to double tap multiple times for the screen to come on so far.
The brightness slider is different. If auto is checked you cant move the slider any more.
How long?
How long did the process take? Mine seems to get stuck at downloading software everytime. I don't get a status bar at all.
The actual update took about 10 minutes on a slow computer. Downloading the 1.75GB file took forever.

Hmm ok. I never get a status indicator at that point. It looks like it fails... No percentage and the timer stops. Sound familiar?

[ROM][Flo][12/2/14] - Factory Stock Rooted ROM - LRX22C - Android 5.0.1! Lollipop!

AS the name implies this is a stock rooted Android 5.0.1 Lollipop ROM!
The one we have been waiting for!
Features
100% Stock
Rooted
Busybox
No other edits
FSTRIM on install
Powered by SuperSU
Notes:
Should update bootloader. It is attached as a ZIP file but is not flashable! You need to fastboot flash it. For those in windows I have batch file in there along with ADB and fastboot.
First boot is a loooooooooooong time! About 5 to 7 minutes!
You must be on TWRP 2.8.1.0+ for this ROM to Flash properly!
Troubleshooting
If you get no status bar reboot to recovery and clear all cache. If that doesnt work try flashing the factory image then flash TWRP again and then this ROM.
Getting Symlinks failed during install? Make sure /system is unchecked in TWRP mounts
Problems with internal storage? Look at THIS POST for fix by @freakzapster
Root not working right? Flash newer SuperSU by @Chainfire but play store update should be fine!

Let me know what you guys think... They changed some things around and I am "semi" anticipating problems. Obviously I had zero testing time beings I started on it as soon as I got out of work and upload it after a very minimal function test: Play Store, Hangouts, GPS, Maps and that was it.
Let me know if you see any issues.
Well that was fast!
Apart from updated binaries any other noticeable changes?
Thanks! Been waiting for this one ☺.
You mention in OP updating bootloader- what version is required? Say I'm on ver 4.02, do I need to update it?

Sorry... I put the bootloader in the op and you should be on 4.04.
You can prolly get buy with 4.02, many people did on the initial 5.0.0. release.

Normally me too , but I figured since it was only a minor update and I was already running the same stock 5.0.0 ROM I'd give it a try. Eveything seems fine so far. No issues at all yet.
Flashed ROM , works great. Ty scrosler
Edit: Sadly tons of 3rd party apps still haven't been updated for Lollipop even after almost 1 month since it was released. Minion Rush and Dead Trigger 2 still work like I have a 2009 device. It's the app's fault or Lollipop's hardware acceleration or memory management, but I am 80% sure that it's because those apps haven't been updated. They work fine for 2 seconds then another 2-3 seconds they go into slow motion mode and sadly I have to go back to KK until this is fixed
Dirty flashed over stock rooted 5.0.0... No issues... And no noticeable differences between both, so far.
Are there any problems if we use CWM instead of TWRP? I'm not a TWRP kid of guy...
Thanks.
So it looks like YouTube mediaplayer is fixed and (at last!) volume control on animated gifs in Instagram works properly (previously it was changing notifications level not media). Hopefully WiFi connection will be also stable but this needs a longer testing.
TY scrosler.
Ok, flashed one hour ago, maked the wipes and all pretty smooth here.
Scott youre the master! As always
Running perfect, but I didn't have a problem with 5.0 either.
If this fixes YouTube I'll be pleased as punch :thumbup::thumbup:
Constant restarts were getting annoying

Could you kindly upload it please? I will test it. I'm looking for a version with the ability to hide the navigation buttons so am hoping this will be the one
Any one tried this update. Is it lollipop? And which version 5.1 or 5.0.1?
Hello guys!
Its LP 5.0.1
Seems pretty stable so far. Also my concerns about battery life were faulty so far.Seems to been hanging tough. Maybe better than before. I should make one more
cycling charging for better results since i used a lot of battery power, since 100%, in order to do the update-app updates-system configurations etc.
Give me some more days of testing for more results. I was a bit hesitant at first but i totally recommend it the more i use it with the new update.
#bobsie41
Could you tell me where is it downloaded in my device? I downloaded the update through WiFi in my device.
But i might not be able to upload it somewhere though, cause my connection sucks and really dont have much time. I ll give it a try though.
Its running pretty smoothly.

I also got the same update, I am from India. But got the error while updating through OTA method(Through phone update option) as my phone was rooted (OTA update will not work on rooted devices).
So I installed it through LG flash tool.
It's running well, no crash so far. I have to mention that I did face battery drain issue which is normal when you upgrade the firmware and somehow battery stat file is not updated.
Best fix is to do a factory reset from setting and if you can't afford to that than do a battery calibration, but it requires root access. I did it and now I am getting good battery backup.

Does it now have the ability to hide the on screen navigation buttons in this version?.......Settings/Display/Home Touch Buttons
The only thing I've noticed with the update is the screen swipe effect..

Demigod Crash Handler in D838 couple of days after using Lollipop
Hello guys.
After some time with LP 5.0.1 since a couple of days i get the "Demigod Crash Handler" crash in my d838 like the one that is described here http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/76116-demigod-crash-handler-kernel-crash/
I had installed the "Internet Speed Meter Lite" app and after 1 day of use, it crashed for the first time(Monday).That day the crash showed up 2-3 times untill i unistalled the app.
Then i reboot the phone and fully charged it.
So, yesterday (100%->60% battery duration) and today untill around 20% no error showed up, untill now (~20%). I also, if that helps, had either the Wifi or the Data, "ON" at the point that the error showed up. I also used with no problem in kitkat and 2 weeks with LP, the LTE DISCOVERY app. Just to be sure, i just unistalled it too.
I mention the battery duration because, i have noticed that both time that it happened, the battery was low and around 25%... Its not something sure but, the 1st time that occurred battery (Monday) reading was around 25%. Maybe its irrelevant, but i had to point it.
Untill a couple of days with the LP my phone was perfect. I really enjoyed the new ROM, even if i had a couple of random app freezes (never in kitkat) everything else seems to be ok.
Well, anyone is facing this problem? Any solutions? My phone is all stock, d838 32GB.
Thanks for your time in advance.
installed the update a week ago. i live in Indonesia. update using LG PC suite using restore failed update since im rooted and OTA always fail. the update are kinda hit and miss for me. ART is hogging RAM, i seldom have 1,5 gb of RAM like in 4.4.2 10f. plug and pop are gone, lg life log gone, some themes had to be removed first than installed as normal APK (fairybunny for example). battery life is a bit better though IMO.
Is the battery life better because mind runs out quite quick. And does anyone have heating issue? Thanks

How to Upgrade LG G3 Stylus to Stock Lollipop Official

Upgrade LG G3 Stylus to Stock Lollipop Official
by:
Apriansyah Bintang​
Alhamdulillah, those were the words in my mouth when it landed on LG G3 Stylus "in the middle of the fence." Finally "google potion" has come to us. Ok do not dwell upon this subject anymore! let's rock. But, there has to be understood first before upgrading this device to you who are still newbie :
A. COMMON QUESTIONS
Is the stock firmware of Lollipop are official? yes.

}
If the firmware are official then why can't upgrade via On The Air (OTA) / automatic updates of device? not yet, because even though official however allocated for regional Malaysia, while Indonesia or other countries untill the author post this article currently there is no clarity when it will be given, only the sweet promises from the LG. CAUTION: now you can upgrade to Lollipoop via On The Air (OTA).
Is the manual upgrade as way below will shorten the life of our device ? Nope, there is no relation.
Is the manual upgrade as this will void the warranty ? of course, but do not worry just flash again to Kitkat then it will go back again to a virgin state.
Is the upgrade Indonesian Firmware must be via On The Air (OTA)? nope, you can flash it, and the link of Indonesian firmware is in the under point A. UPGRADE PREPARATION.
B. SPECIFIC QUESTIONS
Is using the firmware will be a significant improvement ? not entirely .
Is 3g signal is more stronger ? the author use “tri” and “simpati” cards. The signal of tri in kitkat for Bekasi (west java, Indonesia) area’s only 1-2 strips, but in lollipop at least 2 strips and 4 strips at maximum. While simpati in kitkat and lollipop both 5 strips.
If we use the Antutu Benchmark then what is the score? If the Kitkat ranging from 17,000 to 18,000 so if Lollipop minimal ranging from 19370-20447.
Does performance increased? I feel it is a litte bit increase.
Is the battery getting longer ? a little bit different with kitkat, it depends on usage.
Is interface (user interface ) to change ? not significant, may be only in screen lock, recent, navigation key, which changed to the style of Lollipop .
It will support USB On The Go ( OTG ) ? no, not yet.
Does the RAM increased ? nope, there is no change, but multitasking becomes better if the entire animations in our device turned off.
Does it affect internal memory becomes more space ? nope, even on the contrary, the Kitkat internal memory which is used for sytem amount 3.7GB but at Lollipop reach 4.21GB.
Is there an Indonesian language option ? Yeup, even the choice of languages becomes more choice.
Does using Indonesian regional firmware for non Indonesian regional will impact influence on the received signal ? i think it doesn't.
Does rooting the device must be? Nope, doesn't.
Does unroot the device must be? Nope, doesn't.
Would the device can be rooted ? Yes, only one methode for now, use king root version 4.0 : www.kingroot.net
Is this upgrade will delete internal memory ? yes, it will. Than backup first please.
Is this upgrade will delete external memory ? nope.
How lerge is the size of the firmware in a KDZ ? 893MB.
Is the pixel density will increase ? nope.
There Is bugs on Lollipop ? Yeup, GPS not working properly and there is no solution yet..
Is the result of photo more better ? a little bit increase about 5-10 %, a better result when the light is less when we using the kitkat with a flash lamp then the result becomes chaotic, ugly saturation, blur. But now it is litle bit better.
Compare the photo above is taken from the stock camera of LG G3 Stylus Kitkat when the light level is very lacking at 08:00 pm ; the left does taken using blits (flash lamp) while the right photo does not use blits.
Now compare the photos below was taken at 10:00pm with stock camera of LG G3 Stylus lollipop in the same condition; with a worse light at 10.00 pm, the left does taken using blits (flash lamp) while the right photo does not use flash lamp.
Does the input / output sound more better ? no changes.
The other Applcations does not change....
etc

My GPS is not working after I update to Android Lollipop! Is it only with me or it's happening with someone else? What can I do?
Thanks!
Does this works with a G3 Stylus model D693 ?
Just to answer my own question, I flashed the ROM and is working perfect.

I was with the Kingroot (the link is on the own post), then I flashed the rom again and it's not working anymore. Funny.
I got root with iRoot too, but even the own iRoot apps couldn't got root permissions, which means it couldn't gave permissions to any other app too.
I guess that even if you get, you won't be able to update the su binaries easily, so you will have to get used with the Chinese apps.
Gps is working fine to me either, seems even faster than before.

18/04/18 UPDATE: Factory Image and Kernel Source are live!
It's being rolled out so you might not have it right away.
My own Unofficial Changelog since the one Razer provided was lacking
Added 8.1 features such as PiP, smart text, new power menu and switch off/reboot animation
Added Updated Dialer (looks more like the Pixel Dialer now)
Added "Colour" under "Display" to tune the display between "Natural" "Boosted" and "Vivid"
Fixed Crashing Issue with Netflix and Google Play Movies
Updated Dolby Atmos Application and equaliser
If you have any issues/bugs please post with a detailed description of it and if it can be replicated. Also upload any bug reports to your Google Drive and share the link here so the developers can take a look.
How to Take a Bug report.
Activate Developer Settings by going to Settings>System>about phone and tap the build number repeatedly.
Once done go back once and you should see "Developer Options"
In here press "Take Bug Report" and then "Full Report"
Wait a bit and you'll see a notification, press it and upload to Google Drive
Once in Google Drive get the link for the .zip file and make sure the sharing settings are changed to "anyone can edit" and then share the direct link to the file here.
I know this sounds like a lot but it's very easy and really helps the developers.
Downloading now. Hopefully will be a good update considering how long it took.
Already installed (on a de-branded phone, btw). It looks like the screen is about 10% brighter than it was before the update, but I may be wrong. Has anyone else noticed the same?

Someone on the Razer forums said the same thing.
If someone could test something for me I would be very greatful but you have to follow these steps exactly and let me know the outcome. The Theme isn't the cause it's just easier to see.
go to System settings>display>colours and change the colour scheme to "Vivid"
Change your theme to something vibrant like flat green or crimson from the razer theme store
Change the theme on Gboard to something bright like red/green
open Google chrome and tap the field box so the keyboard appears
now swipe the quick toggles all the way down with no notifications making sure the keyboard is still up
Now when you look at your quick toggles is the colour switching from vivid to normal by itself? been trying to find the cause of this on my unit but was a bit hard with hardly anyone on the dev preview.
It will be interesting to see if the Three variant has the update delayed. I am still struggling with debranding mine but if the update does roll out with the SIM free devices I will stop trying.

Hi,
Is there any new settings such as haptic feedback vibration settings?
God knows how long we will have to wait for factory images to be released.
As those of us who are on the DP will not receive the OTA, and cannot roll back to N neither
To those of you that don't have the update yet, just install a VPN app like protonvpn and connect to a US server, then check for updates...
Thank me later.

try instaling via ADB sideload .. hopefully working for me .. thanks dude :good:
*UPDATE
its working btw Thanks dude !! im so happy with this update !!
Stock recovery should be able to flash it, it's the same file your device would download.
Whats the correct way to install the OTA???
Fully fresh install DP 1 and then the OTA over it??? (I'm using the DP 1, but I rooted and messed with some files already, I want the fully fresh experience).
Best regards

In my case, I already instal DP1 .. and then roll back to nougat version via fastboot .. then relock the bootloader.
And then update via adb sideload the OTA update

All right then.
So, first install the factory image: https://developer.razer.com/razer-p...210.450019206.1523910795-820167234.1522079918
Then relock the bootloader.
And then ADB Sideload the OTA.
I heard some users had problems downgrading from the DP1 to N, you had any issue???
Best regards,
