Porting would be a ton of work and likely lots of bugs. By the time it's usable official 4.4.2 would likely be out.
March 3, that's the date someone on Sprint Community forums posted. But don't know myself for sure. Last time they said that it actually happened so it maybe real.

Hopefully that's true, because it gives time for devs to find a root/boot unlock method by the time it drops. That way can just OTA and be good to go...hopefully.

ZVA is still 4.2.2. He's talking about 4.4.2. But what you say is true, OTA update is available over wifi!

Sorry to say you should have gotten the Verizon one if you wanted gsm compatability in US as well, I hear there are problems using the LS980 on other US carriers. Besides Verizon version also has wireless charging, only downside is small buttons and that hideous Verizon emblem lol.
No i prefer this one. Im using it on tmo and the problems are no big deal. I got it for 140 and i can still use it with sprint if i want...

Whenever Sprint gets it... it will be at least 4.2 years before I do bc I have verizon and verizon won't release kitkat until google agrees to change the name from KitKat to Android AT&T, T-Mobile and Sprint Can Suck It. And my update has to make my device apply no less than 47 more verizon logos to itself.

Hate to be debbie downer but I'll wait until I see an official promo placard. Techs talk out of their ass all the time. For as excited as I was about this phone I'm kind of beginning to think it's the Bionic all over again. Moderate hardware at leak/announce, forgotten about by time it's actually released.

Yeah just push it out enough to force those who can't afford full retail to give up their true unlimited data to pick one up. Stuck with EBay, Craigslist, etc.
With the Rezound going for $80 it might be my final upgrade before going prepaid unless VZW changes course....

no, completely different technology...lte is gsm based, with extra cdma radio added....3g vzw phones are cdma, global 3g is dual gsm and cdma radios
Alot of the 4g phones don't have global capabilities out of the box.... The razr for instance had a software update that enabled it... I'm sure though that by rooting you could enable it without an official update... This may not apply to all LTE phones because VZW seems to be loading this ability out of the box in the newer devices

I can't see where the OTA file is, so that I can flash it with LG Flash Tools. I'm also kind of worried because some people have been having problems. It's not nearly as easy as flashing a Samsung phone, for sure.

Mine is att carrier for lg optimus g pro and i get the message that phone isnt registered when i want to update it. Hasnt had any updates since i bought it in 2014 or 2015
So I'm currently on PRL 51100 and saw from the sprint PRL thread that that one is associated with iPhones and that the 21100 is the one for triband phones so I'm wondering are there others that are on 51100 as well?
I tend to miss many calls when I'm at home and wondering if switching PRLs would help.
Anyone else having similar issues or running a different PRL with better results?
Sent from my LG-LS980 using XDA Free mobile app
I'm running the same PRL. The wording wasn't too clear about 21100... I'm not sure if I should change PRL to something else, is this also a world LTE phone too and should use that one?
OK, I've done it here, and I'm in a Spark area. No LTE at home, but that is as was before, I'll see if I get better LTE reception at work with the 21100 PRL.

It's only missing Band 5, both models have bands 4, 2, and 17, which are the primary US LTE bands anyway (outside of Verizon's Band 13 that is).
While technically the T-Mobile version is missing Band 30, the AT&T version is missing Band 30 as well.

The T-Mobile one hasn't been rooted yet, though it apparently has an unlocked bootloader. The AT&T model has been rooted, but it appears the bootloader is locked down. Doesn't that suck?

Ya it does. the pre release t mobile phones were able to be rooted but the patched it already for the phone that are shipping now.
Unlocking the bootloader is harder then rooting for the most part. What im interested in is if the qi charging back from europe are working on the tmobile lg g3....they are not on the att g3. Can you test this!? that would be awesome
