Hi there
New to posting here, but I've been a reader for a few years.
I'm wondering if people in the know could help me out. I'm looking to purchase a new device and I'm looking pretty hard at the G Flex 2 (its really cheap).
The model is a LG G Flex2 4G LTE H959 varient with 2gb of RAM.
Has this model received an update to Lollipop 5.1.1 yet? How is it's performance? I see wildly differing reviews online.
Thanks in advance for any info.
Yes it does, it's a lot better with 5.1.1
There is a thread here about it
Ugh sorry I missed that.
The thread is talking about updating via flashing KDZ files?
Isn't the update available via OTA?
My HK version still hasn't received it OTA if it helps.

The OTA is still not released and KDZ seems to not be published by LG as well because of a message from your phone when you boot it.. But it works just fine so

My Singapore H959 still hasn't received the update. Waiting patiently, but others have success in flashing the Taiwan version of it.
Yep same here I must have the Singapore version cause I too still don't have it.

hi guysis there any news about ota update of xt1032??
Pretty sure it's rolling out to some of them now. Google play edition ones I believe...also Indian variants are receiving the OTA.

Right and wrong.
It already rolled out to GPE (which is XT1032) like you said, but no Indian XT1032 got it, only Indian and Brazilian XT1033 (and it's the soak test, not final release).
If I root the phone will I still get ota?

No. It will fail the instalation.
Not according to Motorola. They say it will install but root will be lost.
But, having said that, I'm not rooting just to be safe.

Check out this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=57422969. I converted my US GSM XT1032 using this procedure and was able to get LP. It seems a bit shady when you're doing the procedure, but you get the official LP OTA in then end. Just using fastboot and not an actual OTA. It is no different than if you are to receive the OTA. As long as you don't root the end product, you'll receive future OTAs straight from Google.

Has anyone heard anything about the UK lollipop update. Its being so quiet on the Europe UK update what's going on. I think its going to be after Christmas for us UK Europe lollipop release. I haven't seen one post about a soak or release, which is strange.

Dont you find it weird that no news or post about it anywhere. The kit kat update was rife with news.
It's going to be a while until we get the official, because there's a new soak test for xt1033 with 5.0.1, which means that they'll be testing the software for at least a week. I'd put 31 dec-1 Jan for the official release.

I said before on another thread that we wouldn't see the lollipop update till after Christmas, I even think it could be into the new year. Starting to think its going to go down hill now lenovo have bought Motorola.
So can we expect LP on Moto G XT1032 next week?

You don't need to be "stuck" in the GPE Lollipop;
As I've been saying in the other topic, just try following this:

Just download the 20c kdz from here http://lg-phone-firmware.com/mobile/index.php?id_mod=62
Be careful to get the right one for your model, 6WN/TAIWAN is for the 16gb variant, while TWN/TAIWAN is for the 32gb. Once you downloaded the firmware, flash it with lg flash tool 2014 and select CSE flash. It will erase all your data, so make a back up first.

Possible to flash the KDZ with normal flash so it doesn't wipe? I currently have the latest official KitKat.
You can do it with normal flash but you will likely have some problems, as they are different OS versions. A full wipe it's always the best way to avoid troubles. Take your time and do a back up first

Just an update, the software update greatly improves performance. The phone is now very snappy. Noticed that RAM usage decreased as well (I usually get around 200+ MB Free, now I get 600+MB).
Don't know about thermal throttling issues though, will have to test further.
Phone remains on Android 5.0.1 (software version V10c-SEA-XX)
Has the update fixed any of the performance issues? People have reported?
I've not received it yet but looking forward to it...
Hopefully it will be the fix we've been waiting for and the people who returned their phone and exchanged them for some something else will regret being so impatient..
Fingers crossed
Where do u live?
Please continue to report about the update
I'm in the uk ... With no update just yet.
Just got 10c a minute ago and it's a mixed bag. Phone is much hotter now but faster. But there is still lag for Facebook external share, 3x longer than g3

Just downloaded and installed it now OTA. Seems lag is fixed, or at least reduced, but still testing.

Update: phone is definitely snappier, lag gone as far as I can tell. No excessive heat issues so far. Nice update!

Gotcha, O2 ahead of Vodafone then
Ha! Interesting. This morning the phone notified me of an update (Sprint US), so I promptly tried. The phone rebooted, was installing for a while, then I got the picture of an Android in a coma with the triangle stuck in his belly. What now I said. You can't pull the battery and I didn't find any reset holes. Power+volume down. The phone booted and is working fine but no update installed and get this... no update available. WT actual F?
Edit: Found the thread for people with the same problem.
