Hello
I still did not receive the lollipop update. I have the LG G3 D855. I tried to update it manually from the About menu. How can I force the update?
Check it using PC Suite. If it still say you have the latest Kitkat version, it means that Lollipop hasn't been released for your region.

You may use the LG Flash tool to flash the device with the new firmware(kdz).
LG Flash tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2797190
Please look on this forum to find the lollipop firmware that was released for LG G3 D855 and download that firmware. You will use this file to flash the new update to your phone.
Note: Region does not matter. The model number of your phone is very important and it does matter.

I have the Kogan's model 32gb G3 d855 and it did an update when I installed the LG Suite on the computer. Its now
Android 5.0
Software version V20c-SEA-XX
However then the LG suite says there is another update. The software lists this update as D85520C.
But when I do this, it does 99% process. LG Software crashes, Phone looping LG Logo to reboot.
So I then plug it back into the PC and it can do another update and goes back to Android 5.0 V20C-SEA-XX
Is that the latest for this phone? Or is it trying to do a newer upgrade and not working? Ideas?
Download the KDZ manually and flash it with LG Flash Tool 2014
LG G3 cat6 F460k model. hi guys. I just received a brand new F460k and i am not able to update it to lollipop. When i go into update center and then phone version update, after clicking on check now for update, it gives me an error "update service is limited. Please contact lg service center". I am currently downloading the lg pc suite. I have attached the software information. Also, I put up in India and I don't know whether that's the problem as my G3 is Korean variant.
Also lg pc suite, but it gives this error "cannot run upgrade. Check phone status and retry". Is something wrong with my device?
Can I flash F460k lollipop kdz manually using download mode
But if I do so
These are all LG Korean refurbished phones.. But they don't support it and not licensed to sell in korea. That's why e-commerce sites selling these phones with deep discount. But I wonder can I able to flash lollipop kdz file manually. If I do so will it affect SIM lock or SIM network read issue?
It's going to download mode when pressing volume up button while turning on and I downloaded lollipop kdz for f460k. Can I go-ahead and flash it. Or it will give boot up or hard brick. It isolleh . Thank you.
Flashed F460k v20c kdz lollipop everything fine and i rooted using one click root.Is there any custom rom available for lollipop as of now. Or i will downgrade to kitKat by flashing kdz and root and recovery andis there any lollipop custom rom available from stock kitkat. And by the way still automatic download not working same error when checking for new updates. Planning to go back to kitkat stock and install any custom lollipop rom available.. Olleh is having annoying bloatwares in korean language to get rid only i need to go custom rom.
I have read that AT&T has released Android M 6.0 for the AT&T G Pad F 8.0 V495 however when I try and update it says I have the latest version. The LG software tool also states the same thing.
I don't not have an active SIM card, but I have tried with a deactivated sim and also no sim with the same results. This update was released 4/26/16 it looks like.

I don't know if it's the same with AT&T, but with Verizon devices, they won't receive OTAs unless you have an activated Verizon SIM card in the device. It can take time for the PC software to show the latest update - could be weeks if at all.
I was trying the same thing today on mine and getting the same thing, I remove the Activated SIM from my iPad and installed on my LG G Pad F 8.0 (V495) then I move the date because it check for update every 24H. After all that it found a New Upgrade and download, but my problem is that I am ROOTED and the OTA upgrade wont work on rooted devices.
Ahah, thanks guys. I moved my iPad Mini 4 Sim over with an adapter and was able to update it after it had an active LTE connection.
I recently bought a used LG G4 H81510h but it was in tip-top condition (although I only got the handset, nothing else). I have question/complaint. The phone is running Android Version 5.1 Lollipop with the build number being LMY47D. I looked at the specifications of the phone online and found out that it is supposed to get Marshmallow as well. But whenever I go to the Software Update section in the settings menu, it states that my phone is up to date. The person who sold it to me also said that he didn't get any updates by the time he had it. My set is not rooted and doesn't have it's bootloader unlocked or anything. I really want to updgrade, can you help me out here? I've tried the LG Flash Tool 2014, LG Bridge and the LG Support Tool but nothing worked for me. Each had it's own problem. The .kdz file (20A) doesn't install. Please halp, I'm primarily asking because I can't unlock the bootloader either, the OEM Unlock option in the Developer Options doesn't work no matter how many times I try to enable it, it stays disabled.
