Thinking about getting an LG G Pad 8.3 Google Play Edition. Is Google going to release Android L for this device? Or does it stop at Kit Kat?
Nothing yet official from Google, but should be about 99.9% chance for a GPE!

Basically should be able to port kit kat directly over correct? Thinking about taking back my note 10.1 2014 , bought my dad a Nexus 7 kit kat it's amazing very quick! Figured some one will make Rom to update the stock version?
I have the same question. I picked the regular G Pad up from Best Buy yesterday since it was on sale. Hopefully I can get the google play version's rom on it somehow.
should be possible just as it is on the HTC One And the Samsung S4
Hi guys,
I've been eyeing the LG G Pad for a while but didn't want to buy it because it didn't have multi-window support like the Galaxy Tab PRO 8.4. I was just wondering if the KitKat update now has the dual-window feature like the one that comes with LG G Flex.
If it does then I'd definitely buy this asap!
Thanks!
No. The floating window is possibile only with a few app, like in the previous version.

Hi
Does anyone know whether this will happen, or is CM13 our best bet?
Thanks.
It would be really nice of LG to give us 6.0 especially since the tablet is newer and more powerful than the 2013 Nexus 7, which has already gotten Marshmallow. That and LG is bragging about being the first OEM to push 6.0 to their G4, so how hard would a STOCK update be for our tablet?
I got this tablet for Christmas a few years ago and it came from Best Buy. Does that mean I have the v500? I think it only got one or two updates from LG and I basically gave it to my daughter so she could watch Netflix. It's been a while so I was wondering if anyone could give me a update of where this tablet is. Are there any decent Nouget roms that are worth installing. This tablet just seems slow and since my daughter uses it for the most part, I was thinking about wiping it and installing something other than the stock rom to see if that would improve performance.
The model of the tablet all bf in Settings / About / Hardware. There are three variants of the G Pad 8.3: VK810, V500 and V510. All other models of G Pads in these sections are something other than the G Pad 8.3.
I put my VK810 back on KitKat because Lollipop 5.0.x is to slow, they never offered 5.1 or 6.x for this variant. All variants are different.
