Sprint the reason for 4.2 delay? - Sprint LG Optimus G

http://community.futureshop.ca/t5/T...y-Bean-4-2-1-update-in-late-March/ba-p/414261
It appears that Google has released a 4.2 update for the international OG as of late March. Could it be possible that we get 4.2 update after sprint finishes putting their crapware on it?
I also hear that LG is skipping the 4.3 update and going straight to 5.0 KLP. Late 2012 devices are included.
My OG came with 4.1.2 out the box, I'm sure we should get 4.2 stock by the end of the year and decent LTE

well... you know what they say: ¨if u want the latest update, buy the latest handset¨ and with lgog2 around the corner we'll have to just wait and see...

That's just a misprint in the title of the article, the update described is the 4.1.2 release

I doubt it sprint so much holding a update back... It still relies on manufacturer to make and push the update to sprint.... Lg is shifted focus to it new lg g2 so in turn we have became low priority...
Lg isnt worried about almost year old model. Its not the product that is having to compete with the likes of the s4/HTC 1... Their will be an update for us but I believe it won't be well into the g2 launch before we get a kick back for updates and that....

If this was true, other variants would have 4.2. None do minus the nexus four which really doesn't count.

OTA announced when I called T-Mobile.

I called T-Mobile tonight to change my HTC One S to my wifes account due to picking up this bad boy and an automated voice came on while I waited and said that there was going to be an update for my device next week.
Im hoping we're talking 4.1.1 but I guess its better than guessing IF instead of when, just thought of another thing.... what if its for the One S and not the GS3.

In the for what it's worth category...
I've heard (from another source... not one of the forums) that the "4.1" OTA will be released next Wednesday (11/14) for TMO... I don't know if that's a 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 release... Heck... my source could be wrong....
But I'm going to hope she's right... (she's been fairly right on other things previously)

I got Frosty JB and it is the closest to the official it can be.

By the time they release the update i will already have my Nexus 4, it is ridiculous that we had so many leaks and the official still has not been released. I have been using CM10 nightly builds for awhile now, currently on 11/7. This will do until I get my Nexus 4 and then I am done with carrier branded phones.

That's what I said. Had gnex for about four months before I sold that to come to this. I missed all the features of the Sgs.

I wanted to get the GNex but I could not bring myself to buy a phone with year old technology and decided I would wait for the next Nexus phone. And when the SGS3 became available i just could not resist upgrading, forgetting that updates were ridiculously slow on the Vibrant I had prior to my Sensation 4G. I love the hardware on this phone but if I cannot get timely updates then it is a waste.

Even 4.2 doesn't have much of significance. Lockscreen widgets would probably be the biggest thing, but I don't use them on my Nexus 7. Until there is another major Android upgrade, I don't care at all about updates.

im not really worried about LTE to be honest. i get as good of speeds as i had on verizon where i live.
Who cares about 4.1.2. I want 4.2. And lte. I can wait for those. 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 is so minor. Nobody would even know the difference. A number.

True that. But I'll let you know the difference between 10-20 mg and 20-30 isn't as noticeable as you think. I use my wife's t mobile note and it's barely noticeable. Unless it's on edge like it seems to do a lot in SC.

your going to be waiting awhile for us to get 4.2.
I think it would be easier to just go from 4.1.1 to 4.2.0 since it's been so long already. If I'm going to get a update it mind as well be the newest version of Android. Then once we're on 4.2.2 the next big wait will be KLP. KLP will be the biggest update this phone will receive since this phone was released with jelly bean anyway.
So once Key Lime Pie is released Samsung is going to have to race to get it into this phone. It would look bad if it took more then a couple months to get the next version of Android on this device. Mainly because it's there top phone besides when the S4 comes out. Then the Note 2 will be Samsungs 2nd top phone.

The only useful one was the flashlight one, which would be null for an n7. It was the only locks creek widget I used on my n4, and the camera one, but the hold and rotate on the note 2 is better.

I agree with sticking with what works but a lot of the people around here that can't do dev work truly believe that the newest is always the best, and that's not always the case. Android 5.0 may be just around the corner, who really knows considering 4.3 was just released for the Nexus line and in development for the S3, S4 and Note 3 (and possibly the Note 2).
ICS was a big step up from GB, and JB over ICS. History has proven the the next big version is not just better but A LOT better. But I have to ask, what could or would you possibly change to make Android that much better to warrant a major change over Jelly Bean?

Basically the stuff ive read from random sources online, its gonna be more aesthetic stuff but will also cut down on cpu usage. Making it more streamlined and less power hungry, meaning the newer smart phones will run smooth as silk and battery drain will be minimal. Obviously some features will be added, but i didnt read of anything revolutionary. Hopefully theyre keeping that aspect under a tight seal. I feel like theyre going to increase interaction with multiple devices now. Integration of all peripheral devices seems like the next "big thing".

T-Mobile update?

Any hope for it?
its not looking good... every carrier got one except us i think it has to do with wifi calling integrated into the new rom
I'm sure disappointed there's been no update still this whole time.. but now that it's taken so long for a 4.2.2 App2SD update I'd rather they spend time pushing out the 4.3 update with App2SD and Wi-Fi Calling (which has been estimated for October launch for international devices).
There's something wrong though.. Wi-Fi calling CANNOT take this time to integrate.. It's either they don't wanna push it or something went wrong..

I gave up on T-Mobile 3 weeks after the other carriers got the update. I just rooted and installed the goldeneye ROM. If they are releasing an update I would say skip the apps2sd one and just jump to android 4.3 but I doubt it
