Sprint LG G4.....is there even official Nougat? If so which update? - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

http://www.lg.com/us/support/product-help/CT10000027-1435331245910-software-updates
I am wanting to know if the Sprint G4 has been updated to at least Nougat. LG's own update page has been abandoned even they I know there have been at least 5 subsequent updates .
Can someone confirm where and IF the Sprint G4 variant got NOUGAT 7 ?
Was it on ZVI
thanks

No one is getting Nougat. Stop hoping that, LG doesn't care about G4 users.

There is no official Nougat for G4, but there is a beta version floating around that I believe is the foundation of the Lineage Nougat ROM. However, Sprint will never provide an official OTA update to Nougat for your G4.

There IS an official release of nougat available: for the F500.
No other model has got N officially.
H815 has got a beta in Poland but still no official release

Is it True that the next update for LG G3 will be only in Android M ?
There is no announcement from LG.. Just a supposition..

German website says 5.1.1 is in final testing stage and will be ready in two weeks.
Furthermore they say UX 4.0 is also coming with the 5.1.1 update.
South Korean versions of the G3 will get the update first, to be followed by international variants "some weeks after".

Nothing is official but it does look like we will be getting Android 5.1.1. However LG could cancel their plans and only release Android M to us. Take everything with a pinch of salt until an official announcement by LG.

Manually updating to 5.1.1?

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.

Do I Have To Update

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 G4 VS98611A Marshmallow Root Update

So I currently am running Android 5.1 with Root. What do I need to do to upgrade to 6.0? Is there any special step? Do I have to unroot and re-root? Let me know.
First, Marshmallow has not yet been released for the Verizon G4 (VS986). So you cannot upgrade to MM at this time and will have to wait for Verizon to release the update. Nobody knows when that will be, but as of yesterday, all 3 other major carriers have released MM for their G4s.
Second, you will not be able to root Marshmallow on the VS986 since that particular model has a locked bootloader. With Marshmallow, Google added some new flags to the boot.img (kernel and ramdisk) to prevent root that have to be flipped in order to allow root, otherwise you just bootloop. But without an unlocked bootloader, you will not be able to flash a custom boot.img. Without an unlocked bootloader, there is little hope at this time for root on the stock LG Marshmallow ROM. If you want to keep root, you need to stay on 5.1.
Still not getting update
My LG G4 still not getting the marshmallow update.
Does it still not release for LG G4 Verizon devices.
Please help me with this
Thank you
