Has anyone been working on Marshmallow? Or are we waiting on the official OTA if it does come out?
.......if CM has released 6.0 then the CM being made for the T-Mobile/Metro variant is 6.0 other then that we are waiting fir the OTA/KDZ preferably a KDZ cause then a Custom Rom can be made from it so people can keep root...
Hopefully for 6.0 ?
Ota's were announced for tmobile with an undetermined date but supposedly toward the end of November or the beginning of December
I know it's an older thread but I was wondering the same thing and came across this. http://www.vcpost.com/articles/97041/20151007/android-6-0-marshmallow-update-confirmed-coming-lg-g-stylo.htm
Looks like those of us not on a ROM should get an OTA by the end of the year. Since I'm on the Katana ROM I will be patiently waiting for something custom or for an official release of a kdz

there are no official KDZ...apparently it's just some works that leak the stock firmware...when they can, hence why not every carrier get's the love of KDZ
Does 6.0 will come to LG g stylo on boots mobile?

So as some of you may know the S4 had it's exploit fixed and since then we haven't been able to get away from Touchwiz based roms.
Before I go get the G3 I just wanted to be 100% clear that even the latest firmware hasn't fixed Bump, and I will be able to do other AOSP roms. From my quick research it seems like it's fine, but I only have 20 minutes left to get it friday instead of monday, so I figured I would just ask to be safe.

AT&T released firmware Build number: KVT49L.D85010f to patch root exploit. Read this thread

When Android Lollipop rolls out to G3 in the near future, rooting will be harder to accomplish. Same for other brands.

But that is recent enough that a phone bought today will not come with it out of the box, so I'm not worried about that.
And in theory I can just flash a bumped lollipop build later anyway right?
I just want to make sure it's not in the same current state as the S4 where you have to have touchwiz and match roms to bootloader version and what not.
I know there isn't too many roms yet with bump being fairly new, but as long as I stay on the current build I should be fine going forward no?
And I guess on that note, the stock rom isn't nearly as bad touchwiz is it?

Cool, I went for it, thanks for the quick clarifications. I can read all about everything now while I impatiently wait for UPS friday.
with LG phones you can always downgrade the software to a version where you can root.
I am sure there will be a way to get official lollipop while keeping custom recovery and root.
Once again, LG locked the door but forgot to close it before locking like what they did on the G2. So we were still able to upgrade while keeping custom recovery and root by mixing and matching partitions from upgrade and previous versions.
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:

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?
So last week I finally ordered the mate 7 and right after I did it they announced the official Lollipop update (yay).
But after seeing so many unhappy users here I decided to wait for either official updates (which won't happen that fast I guess),
or I'll wait for custom Android L roms stock roms, since the fingerprint sensor only works there.
Does anyone know whether there is already someone on it, because I haven't seen a single rom announcement here on xda..
I did some research and found kangvips chinese 5.1. 1 rom on the huawei forums, and I've already seen a international kangvip rom here.
Does that mean that someone's translating/porting it for us soon or how does it work?
Link to Kangvips or HRT-Teams rom
I just picked up this phone on eBay from a seller in Puerto Rico. The phone has Marshmallow, which I didn't think much of it until I came here and saw people complaining about not getting updates on the phone. Got me wondering if my phone has an official update or if the previous owner flashed an "unofficial" ROM. Any way to tell?
Everything on the phone works great - this thing is a beast.

Yeah, fantastic phone! I own three -- two from Puerto Rico and one from Mexico.
They either installed the Marshmallow soak test beta or one of the Marshmallow custom ROMs.
We have three Marshmallow custom ROMS. CM 13, Resurrection Remix and Mokee.
Plus the forever soak test that won't end. But Motorola has not released an official retail/finished Marshmallow ROM. But thanks to XDA devs, we got Marshmallow custom ROMs a couple of months ago.
When you go to Settings/About Phone, what does it say?
Attached is a screen shot
I am sure you will find the bootloader is unlocked as the firmware you have the is Brazil soak test #1.
Same thing many of us are running, it works quite well. The phone will never update from that on its own though, you'll probably want to flash it manually once the final version is released.
Hello there,
