What is the difference between models? Is it a ton of work for the devs to port it over?

I wish I had time to learn this stuff...
I don't know how difficult it is to do, but I can't imagine it's very easy or it would be done already.

Can't wait for this to be ported...loving my AOSP at the moment though!

Port! Port! Port! Port!

I want! I want! (wish I knew dev work)

Porting it shouldn't require extensive testing since the release to hardware for d855 is almost identicle to ours but the kernel has to play well otherwise we will have to wait for t-mobiles official release. The real question is how easy will it be to reroot.

At this point I don't care about root, I just want Stock Lollipop on my T-mobile LG G3.

Still no lollipop

DONT DO IT!! It breaks root and thats about all it does.
I started noticing that every time I would update to the latest version then root my D851 I would almost immediately recieve an update from Tmo. It's something built into their version of the firmware, maybe in the ever intrusive Tmo bloatware (My account etc), but it seems they can detect root and thats all these updates are for. To break your root access.
I ended up getting sick of it, installing TWRP and flashing the Unofficial CM12 build. No real problems with it so far.

The next update I'll do will either be stock lollipop or CM12 official.

I heard someone say that" Its like that can detect you have root" I know for a fact that T-Mobile can detect that you have root.. Hell they told me over the phone that my phone is rooted. Only thing they didnt tell me was my OS version. which changes from time to time.. and yes its LP. not the stock LP that we should be getting soon. I also checked into
when will we get LP on T-Mobile and they told me, between April and Summer time.. it was supposed to be release already but some problems delayed it.
Dont forget that when Google releases the LP then LG has to get with all major Carriers and agree what goes into and what doesnt go into.. and then it gets tested by carrier for they told me 2 weeks before the OK is givin over to Carrier (T-Mobile) . Then LG wil Roll out the releases..
Me Personaly, I wont update to stock LP till I know there is a ROOT method that works.. I just want my wifi calling back. which only T-Mobile has.. so thats why I want the T-Mobile LP.. But till Root is working with stock T-Mobile LP. I will just wait......... I run ACIP 5.02 and Resurrection Remix 5.02 with MultiROM..

It's built in my account via diagnostics to ensure that's what is causing the problems or not during troubleshooting. And no, we do not push out updates to break root. That's not our priority. We dgaf what you do with your phone, but if it's rooted it just voids warranty, that's all.

[Q] is this a bug in android 5 ?

Hi guys
few days a i have been flashed the official android 5 from Poland euro and everything okay until i check the battery
note : i flashed the official build KDZ file and i don't use lg health or google service !!!

You and me both buddy, I personally think that LG has given the update as a soak test. That Google Services bug has been a killer even on the kitkat firmware, and like nobody seems to notice. I have tried so many roms just to get rid of that. There is a tread dedicated to fixing it but it seems to keep re-enabling itself at screen on. I have used all the Lollipop versions to no avail, so i went back to kitkat (Kn Virus Accura V5).

now i feel good because i'm not the only one but i hope LG fix this soon as possible and i flashed the official Poland Lollipop v20a kdz so do you think i can receive OTA update in future or should keep flash through KDZ because I don't live in Euro.

What is the best possible way to update a LG Optimus G Pro F240L to Lollipop?

Hi everybody,
I am a new member here. I am from India.
First off, I admit that I know nothing about custom ROM and flashing (You can call me an idiot)
I have been using a LG Optimus G Pro F240L (Rooted and Unlocked) for past 1 & Half years.. I want to update it with Lollipop in the best and safest possible way. ..and I want LG's stock features too (Stock android apps are not that great. For example, dialer, contacts, messenger, alarm clock are far better in LG's stock apps). Some people say to use LG's stock Lollipop ROM ......while some say to use a ROM based on LG's Stock ROM. I don't know what's the difference among the two.
Detailed description About My Phone
Phone Type: It came as Rooted and Unlocked. I want to upgrade it from Jellybean (4.1.2) to Lollipop
My Location: India
GSM network being used: Vodafone India
I am not allowed to post external link as I am a new member here. So I can't upload screenshots to make it more understandable with my phone's specifications. Please tell me your email address and I will send them.
After you're done checking out all those screenshots, please guide me through a step-by-step process. I don't want to get screwed
A whole lot of thanks that you gave it some of your precious time

You could try flashing the Lollipop KDZ using the LG Flash Tool like I did. I should warn you, though. Lollipop can't be rooted.
Here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/opt...ficial-lollipop-5-0-1-kdzs-f240k-l-s-t3042330

Nobody ?
Nobody there to help me? :crying:

Thanks that you replied. I have a few questions.

Thanks that you replied. I have a few questions.
Is it for any LG G Pro F240L? I thought factors like "CPU version" and all are also to be taken into account to locate a suitable ROM.
Will that work in Indian basebands after update? I mean, do I have to encounter any signal drop out in Indian network?
What about the UI and apps in this update? Did you get LG's stock apps? Or its just stock android Lollipop version?
What did you mean when you said "Lollipop can't be rooted"? Did you mean any phone running a lollipop version of android can't be rooted at all? OR, it's the issue with this Lollipop ROM only?
How is the experience after this update? Anything bad happened so far? How is battery backup?
Can you please give me your mail ID so I can send you some screenshots? I think you can guide me better if you see them.

1. Just download kdz file for F240L.
2. It should work in India.
3. You will have all LG's apps and also many korean apps.
4. Some users said it could be rooted. Just try kingroot, iroot, vroot,...( I haven't tested on my F240L)
5. The battery life is average, about 3h30' -4h on-screen, not as good as kitkat.

1. I don't think it matters, I have the F240L myself, flashed the respective KDZ and the process went smoothly.
2. I'm pretty sure the network signals will stay the same for the most part. I'm from Pakistan and although I could make calls when I wanted, the signals were a bit inconsistent, as in, it would show no signals on rare occasion. Never had this problem with Kitkat.
3. Pretty much what irt118's post said. All the LG apps from the previous version stay, although updated with the nice new Material Design that makes it more appealing to look at and more satisfying to touch. Lots of Korean bloatware and pop-ups like on any previous ROM for this phone.
4. I should have clarified, only this Lollipop ROM can't be rooted. I've tried most of the mentioned methods (One-Click-Root, Kingo Root, KingRoot etc.) only to see that they had failed.
5. The update is in no way a shoddy one, however, it does have its flaws. My number one complain would be that there's no root method for it, ergo, all the Korean pop-ups and apps just jump in your face from time to time. Other than that, it's a bit slower than Kitkat, you just don't get the same smooth experience, the games see a few drop in frames, nothing horrible or too noticeable. It also heats up pretty quickly now. The battery drained very fast when I first updated it, but removing some of the bloatware and using Battery Doctor really changed the battery timing, in fact, this was the least of my bothers.
I'll add that everything else works the same, Wifi, NFC, Bluetooth and the like. The system apps have a very pleasing look to them and some apps also get better functionality. I'd really recommend not upgrading to this if your first priority is rooting the device. Upgrading to Kitkat would prove to be better in the end.

It sounds like "an update in looks at the cost of performance". No I am not going to make my life miserable. Three of your points made my decision. Dimag ki batti jala di aap ne bhai. Salaam and thanks a lot
Is there any better version of it? Or has anybody else come up with anything which doesn't have these drawbacks?

Hi, Im An Lg GPro F240l user from Pakistan, I updated my OS from stock kitkat to stock lollipop and I have successfully rooted my phone through Kingroot PC software, since then my wifi sucks, it will drop after some minutes randomly, specially during video streaming or skype calls, then it will reconnect after 10-20 seconds, secondly wifi speed will suddenly decrease, e.g: it will show a download speed of 10-20 kbps while my other phones will show 500-800 kbps,so clearly lollipop update has done something strange with wifi, Any solution? Anyone?
Second thing Im struggling at is, doing CWM recovery, i tried a lot of things, used Freegee, Used CWM recovery. Apk, but i didn't get success, and i think lollipop update locked the bootloader, so my question is, Can anyone tell me a step by step method of how to do custom recovery on LG G pro F240l with a locked bootloader.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Android 6.0 Marshmallow: Will E986 get it?

So I was wondering if my phone is "young" enough to get the marshmallow update and after a lot of googling I could not get a clear answer...
I own the LG Optimus G Pro E986 and it is almost 2 years and 9 months since the manufacture date and its current OS is Jellybean...
I searched on some sites and found out that LG will allow the marshmallow update on LG G phones first, if I remember correctly, but is LG still updating Optimus G Pro phones? Is there still a way I can get marshmallow?Also do you know any good ROM (marshmallow or lollipop) for the device?
Thanks

Don't expect anything from LG, especially not for EU and Open variants.
Some variants got their KitKat update in 2014, Korean variants (F240 models) got their Lollipop (5.0.2) update last year and that's pretty much it. LG doesn't plan and won't push any further updates for this device, especially it is now more than 3 years old. Hell, they gave up on E98x variants after a year My E988 got an initial 4.1.2 patch first day I got it, and no updates till April of 2014 (KitKat 4.4.2) and... Silence after that, so yeah, not even a full year of updates and support.
Your best chance to get some sweet Lollipop is to flash some of custom ROMs available - you can choose between stock based and AOSP based. I was maintaining SlimLP till recently it became obvious there will be no more updates to their Lollipop repos, and now I'm using custom CM builds. Marshmallow is a dead-end, simply too much stuff for this device is broken/obsolete/non-existent, and it has almost 0% dev interest because of that, locked bootloaders and LG's 30-variants-for-one-model idiotic policy.
So, if you want to keep your device 100% working, keep it on 4.1.2 or try to find a KitKat KDZ for your variant (I had to flash mine manually, LG's OTA didn't even offer KK update, and I didn't even knew there was a KK update before LG's PC suite prompted it). If you don't mind occasional bugs, glitches and crashes, move to custom ROMs (keep your jellybean as base, root it, if not rooted already, "unlock" with Freegee, flash TWRP).

Thats true... As a device its awesome and I am really satisfied by its performance but LG suddenly "forgot" it, like it never existed. I have installed cm12.1 nightly on my E986 but yeah there are some issues (black screens etc.)... so I will test it for some time and I will think if I switch to stock ( which worked smoothly and no problems) or not.
My last hope is BlurOS project which was started by a team in Vietnam's XDA and they are about to create Murshmallow ROM for LG GPro series too.
So whoever is interested please vote for it here (after you become member of the group)-> https://m.facebook.com/questions.ph...o-bluros-support-lg-t3372926&refid=9&_rdr#_=_
Also check the XDA thread about BlurOs ---> http://forum.xda-developers.com/optimus-g-pro/general/please-register-to-bluros-support-lg-t3372926

Try running CM 12.1 with Wild kernel (blackouts are fixed, not sure about flickering, haven't used that one in long time), or if someone else made a CM-compatible flashable zip of kernel I've used for Slim (I've fixed all display issues - no blackouts, no flashing, no glitches.. zombigrn made flashables of older kernels for BlissPop, not sure if they'll work on CM).
I saw that thread but I'm taking that with a reserve. I managed to get some Marshmallow ROMs to boot, but RIL, sensors, camera, NFC.. god knows what else... all broken. Not a job for one guy who just knows his way around and isn't a pro. I'll keep this phone as long as possible, and if someone with enough knowledge to fix those issues emerges, well, more ROMs on our way. But from current state of things... This device simply got it's EOL really, really quick. Too bad, it's still pretty good phone, but either way I'm looking towards an update - something cheap, unlocked and with good AOSP-based ROM support.

Should i change the rom on my G8 RIO?

Hello to all,
I have the EMUI in my HUAWEI RIO-L01 (RIOL01C432B170) 3GB RAM 32 GB.
And , i wanted to ask is there any rom that can make better job especially in battery consumption , without any problems or bugs ?
Thanks!

The way I get around it is flashing the stock recovery back from fastboot every time I use TWRP. It's a pain but it works.

What does this have to do , with the question that i made ?

maan it depends. the stock rom is plenty good for the phone. 7.1.2 brings some new things and it will surely revitalize at least the impression of your device, and its a nice experience overall. phone works great on nougat.
it also has some disadvantages - camera will be worse in comparison to stock. battery life might be slightly lower too (not by much).
audio will be better and in my opinion your device will be smoother. its also a matter of aesthetic - emui vs aosp. also you can root your stock rom and put in some audio addons with magisk (i also played with substratum on stock, not worth it).
if you want to check out nougat, its worth it. just backup your stock rom and restore the backup if you don't like it. if you think nougat is boring and stupid, try it anyway because it only takes about half an hour to do all this stuff and go back to stock so don't be lazy. i'm amazed that this device is actually running on the latest android version, really grateful to the devs (surdu_petru, redbeard, allurba, and any other that i might forget right now) they are the real MVPs.

I CAN Not Update MM!
