Optimus GK

So, Koreans are getting the candy again. LG has released Optimus GK with pretty much everything we dreamt of for Optimus G.
1.7GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 processor
2GB RAM
16GB internal + MicroSD slot
5-inch full HD IPS display with 1080x1920 pixels resolution
13-megapixel rear camera
2-megapixel front-facing camera
Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean
3100mAh battery
Only thing missing is Android 4.2.2, but surely that comes. So who wants this new beauty? I sure do!

it's the optimus pro lol

G Pro has 5,5 display.

Looks uglier than the OG to be honest...

It's the pro in 5" packing pretty much, but not pro ^^
Edit: well, it seems to be the docomo version of pro, so we were both half right, anyways I hope this is released international.

docomo pro is L-04E

Me thinks this version is what LG will present to AT&T on may 1st, not 5.5" version but 5" version. It's pretty obvious, SGalaxy S4 must have an concurrent

Just about to take Optimus G.
But, Optimus Gk announcement puts a wait for my next phone.
3000+ battery and 5inch FullHD is a Biggest Plus.
But only thing missing from this GK will be back design of Optimus G.
Optimus GK is more of a copy from Optimus G Pro. But, Optimus G has a nice clean boxy design.
Optimus GK is having a curved back design, like G Pro.
I will wait for GK International availability.

One thing I know for sure, if you'll wait for intenational GK you'll not get it. Cause when it will be presented LG will unveil in Korea Optimus G2 with specs sky high, starting with Snap800 SoC, 2 or maybe 3Gig RAM, OLED 5,2" matrix and all other goodies. So you'll end up waiting till G2 come internationally, it will be around November. Needless to say that the newest flagship will be announced to come by Christmas...
I'm buying G Pro, let others wait

GK is small version of G pro lol.
They even looks same except the size. I mean same ugly

i think GK stands for lg optimus GK ,K for (korea)

I have checked LG OPTIMUS GK with cpu-z and it shown Snapdgragon S4pro not Snapdragon 600 as their spect. Have any one check it?

I thought the GK is the Japan version of G Pro? Could not remember where I read this..

No its not.
Its a modified version of regular G or G pro, some kind of mix, pretty ugly by the way.

[Q] LG G Pad 8.3 Google Play Edition rom

Hey guys! Is the rom from LG G Pad GPE ported to the stock LG G Pad, the pure Google stock rom, without any modifications? If so, where can I find it? Thank you very much in advance!

There was some early efforts to try to get it to work, but no dice. Hardware is different. Closest you'll get on the stock G Pad is CM11.

But I thought the hardware is identical. Only the software is different. At least that's what I've heard in reviews.

it won't be for this soon i think, v20k will be released shortly which is still 5.0 based on assumptions.
But I also know lg's firmwares letters rarely go further as u,v or w haha.

Brother this is gonna how its probably gonna roll out
1) Lollipop AOSP based roms will be updated within the month
2) Nexus 5, 6, Tablets
3) Google Play Edition Devices (HTC One M7, M8, Galaxy S4)?
4) Samsung (Galaxy S5, Note 4, Note 3, Galaxy S4)?
5) LG (G3, G2)/HTC One M8
7) Sony
8) Other brands

I hope that LG will continue releasing updates for fluidity and speed of the system even without launching v5.1. :/

Maybe with G4
Could it be that LG is launching G3 5.1 update along with the presentation of the G4?

Why would they?

In the presumed leaked photos of the presumed G4, it uses 5.0.2, so LG will take time before using 5.1
Glad they will soon push 5.0.2 though!! Finally a RAM fix!!!

Because G4 will be launched with 5.1...

Optimus G- Dead???

Hy guys,
I have some questions.
I love my LG Optimus G.
Switched from the LG Gpro back to the G because the G is much better.
But i thought there would come some more official updates.
If you look inside our G the specs are nearly the same like the new phones.
If you oc a bit and play with kernel.
The G is better then Gpro and OG2 for shure.
But where are the new firmwares?
Is no cool dev out there who can port a new G4 rom?
Is that not possible?
I treyd the new cm and aosp roms but they are not really stable for me.
It would be great if someone could make a LAST Super Cool LG Rom.
Maybe we could find some nice devs???

Note: As a long time lurker who never posts my response is not just to your post but to other lurkers who may be less knowledgeable.
What MasterFURQAN said! I appreciate LG's proprietary overlay for Jellybean and Kitkat as well but wanted my still quality hardware to have more current software.
The last LG based firmware which I used until about three weeks ago was Sling Kahroba. It is based on the last official LG version of Android for our device which was not released in America. I am not a developer or ROM porter but I imagine the significant hardware differences like much higher screen resolution, fingerprint reader, camera resolution, ROM size etc make porting from an essentially unrelated platform (CPU, GPU, Camera libs) too complicated.
You do not specify what Optimus G model you have but my American version (E970) is running fine with Nitrogen M 6.0.1 (Jan 25 build) with the E970 kernel flashed after. I am not much of a gamer and can't quote Antutu scores but it is stable and fully functional with one small camera related exception. The fine focus on print within a 18 inches or so is not quite there and I use another free camera app, not Google's, because it is more stable in video mode.
I skipped Lollipop and tried other Marshmallow ROMs in this forum but Nitrogen seems to work best for me now.

I used e975, nitrogen works fine for me too. I didn't find big issue with and this rom updated continuously. I am very happy that my old phone can have android 6.0. Even the new phone that I bought for my wife and daughter still in kitkat and lollipop..

The article does say about it.

I don't think so, but i would like it
Sent from my LG-H440n from Serbia

While this does sound great, it does sound a bit too great imo. The article doesn't say if it was announced, or even rumoured from the inside - it's just their own speculation. Nevertheless, hope it pans out.

There's no way we're getting Nougat. Also 1GB is a bit too low for Nougat. I hope I'm wrong though. I noticed that they "expect" OP2 and X to get Nougat, but it's widely known by now that they're doomed in terms of official software updates.

I don't think we're getting nougat update at all. They've released many devices after spirit with mm on them ,so they'll prioritize them first and lg never gave more than a single os update to their mid range devices.

LG Stylo 2, that phone got Nougat update, but hw is a bit same with spirit, also there are config files in kernel. They could made it as I was managed to boot Nougat on Spirit! :d
