Manually updating to 5.1.1? - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have an unlocked LG G3 bought from Amazon UK.
It is currently on Android 5.0 and I was waiting long for 5.1 or 5.1.1 but it seems it won't be updated soon automatically.
Can I manually update to 5.1 or 5.1.1? Does anybody know where should I download the official firmware?
I know the website for all Samsung firmware but not sure of the LG one.
Software version of my G3 is V20i-EUR-XX.
Thanks.

As soon as 5.1(5.1.1) or newer version is available(at all for the g3) you can download it either from your carrier or when the OPEN ones receive it. Currently the g3 doesn't have 5.1(5.1.1) or newer available at all.

Ah all right, I thought there is 5.1 for G3 but my specific version did not get it yet.
Thanks.

I dont think G3 will get 5.1.1 id say we will wait a very long time and they will go straight to 6.0 after the G4 gets its update.

the f400s recieved lollipop try searching for an kdz of it and flashing it(use google to find out how)
Yes BUT NOT ROOT
There are several V20C and V20F kdz files floating however don't hope to root the phone after. Seems that no ones gives a hoot about this model and once you load the V5.0 you won't be rooting this phone anytime soon.
if you're not looking to root then do a search for f400s/l/k V20c (or f) kdz file and use flashtool in download mode = they are available in vietnamese sites -
good luck

Hi this may sound dumb, and sorry if it is.
I have a LG G3 running 4.4 KitKat when lollipop came out I upgraded but I did not get on with it so I went back to 4.4 and waited for marshmallow, now that's almost here.
"My question is" will I need to upgrade to lollipop and then to marshmallow OR will it just update strate to marshmallow ??????
Many Thanks Paul
It's LG D855 in the UK and not tied to a network.

I think it will require you to OTA update to Lollipop first and then update to Marshmellow
But if you want to skip that you can always install Marshmellow manually when the KDZ comes out for your variant in the UK
The answer to this is yes. I was running stock KK 4.4.1 and I got fed up with waiting for my MM update so I used this (http://www.droidviews.com/install-marshmallow-kdz-lg-g3-d855-using-flash-tool/) it took me about ten minutes and was so easy I'd wish I done it weeks ago. But before I did I update to LP first as I didn't know if some code was used from LP in MM, so I done the OTA update to LP first and by doing I found 4 other updates waiting to install. So I would be still waiting in till the end of time for my OTA MM update. So I would suggest this kzd update to anyone even amateurs. My G3 D885 is now running 6.0 and haven't found any problems yet.

LG G3 D855 Marshmallow update?

Hey guys im probably miasing out i dont really check the g3 news or xda but i do know there's marshamallow update coming out to g3 already.
Im using the D855 version and when i check the updates on the update center it shows me this.?
The latest updates on phone is the 2014 version. Its not showing the marshmallow update is it because my device is rooted?
Or its just that D855 hasnt received the mm update yet?
Thanks
first of all, if you don't know yet, don't OTA when your phone is rooted. You have to unroot i you want to update OTA or via PC Suite.
second, only poland d855 has gotten marshmallow update. You can look around the forums in general section and android development section they are there.
Ok thanks

You will have to update your phone via the PC-Program "LG-PC Suite".
Be aware that there might still be a little wait (up to 3 weeks) until it becomes available in your country. Also, you will lose root after updating. If that's a problem check for a working marshmallow root method prior updating.

Tmobile G3 Marsh 6.0 update?

So I been using my G3 since it came out, and I see a lot of other phones are already got the Marshmellow 6.0 update, except the Tmobile G3.
So is there anyways I can update my Tmobile G3 to Marshmellow 6.0 right now? Instead of waiting forever for Tmobile to release it? Any help would be appreciated, thx.

Yes. You can install a custom ROM like this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-g3/development/rom-1-11-15-t3000137
If you are asking a question like this, I think it's safe to assume you haven't done something like this before (or often). I would HIGHLY suggest you do some reading before starting to mod your expensive smart phone. Always double check every file before flashing, as one mistake can leave you with a very expensive paper weight.
Flash this

Flash what? that link just go to the main forums?
What is the best ROM for Tmobile G3 atm? thx
If you are looking for official LG 6.0.1, this is the best ROM in my opinion. It supports all variants including T-Mobile.
