Does anyone know if it will be possibile to have Android 4.4.3 on LG G2 D802?
Google release it today according to this article http://www.xda-developers.com/android/android-4-4-3-ktu48f-to-begin-rolling-out-to-nexus-5-today/
So maybe the developers could work on a custom ROM with Android 4.4.3 for the next month?
What do you think guys?

My understanding is 4.4.3 is more of a fix for nexus devices that suffer from the camera bug, which apparently drains battery like crazy. It may also be for other devices that have the same bug, however I have yet to hear of anything for the G2.

You'll probably find it pushed upstream from an aosp ROM like Cyanogen, Omni and PA to name a few...

How is this an info thread when ask I see are questions in OP?
Thanks for your answers.
What I understand now is that Anroid 4.4.3 will be a "big fix update package" for the Nexus devices. Perfect !
Ok as usually the big name such as Cyanogen, Omni and PA will probably push it upstream.
wargreymon89: It is right that I ask something and I don't give any details or info about something in specific.
But it is an info topic, in my opinion, because everyone here can write what they know about this version of Android and the possibility to have it for LG G2.
I think for some people on XDA will be interesting to know more about the future of our device. I also hope that LG don't stop the development at Android 4.4.2 so maybe we can have Android 4.4.3 or even better Android 5.0. Who knows ?
In the meantime if you have some useuful information about this particular version of Android of our device, you can wrtie here and everyone will know what you know
It is simple !

Forget it
Based on my experience LG always skip minor upgrade. This phone will jump to 5.0 (probably)
Optimus G 4.1.2 to 4.4.2
G Pro 4.1.2 to 4.4.2
G2 4.2.2 to 4.4.2
And Lseries II (started from L5 i guess) 4.1.2 to 4.4.2

My amazement is the fact that you are asking to speculate on a release date for our phone, when the Version hasn't even launched yet. That's like asking the exact release date of a phone that hasn't been announced yet

I'd think that would be the smart choice for them, especially considering that the g2 is the basis for the nexus 5. I'd imagine they're developing both in parallel.

Relax dude. Until samsung or htc comes out with a stock 4.4 rom, LG would not be considered behind. I am confident that LG is working on a 4.4 rom and skipped 4.3 completely.

LG G2 Korea version will launch 4.4
From China website "bbs.gfan.com" thread said 4.4 is being in private test (F320L17F_00.kdz) for Korea version F320L so high likely will get stock rom 4.4 update (F320L20X_00.kdz).

I hope that LG in their Android 4.4 KitKat update for LG G2 includes the multiwindow feature similar to Samsungs as shown in this Youtube video below. Watch the 0:50 - 1:20 mark. It looks like this LG multiwindow feature will be headed to the LG G Flex.

That looks amazing!. Normally I don't care much about all those fancy features, but this one I can really see myself using it. If it will work with all apps, and not just with some apps chosen by LG, as it is with the current floating window feature.

I don't think that you even read the article, it was published on 14 Nov and discussed the claims of French carrier SFR that the LG G2 Android 4.4 KitKat update would roll out in either November or December of this year. The author concluded that LG G2 users will be waiting until next year for an Android 4.4 KitKat update.

Very nice.
But we will have to wait until October or later, since Android L will be released around September.
BTW, I think that it is Android 5.0 , because it has so many changes.

true... today, our old Optimus 2x runs kitkat 4.4.4 almost without a problem (depending if you use HDMI and some other minor stuff)
G2 was my choice for upgrade mainly because of the screen size and quality, it looks nicer than other devices i was considering to buy and most important of all - i got it for a bargain for extending my contract with my provider...
and i don't like samsung or especially iStuff (and HTC ruined their flagships with enormous bezels)

You do not need a 5.0 kernel for the G2, older devices have newer versions of android w/o having the corresponding source. I'm using 4.4.4 on my Galaxy S1 just like my G2 (except the S1 obviously didn't receive 4.4.x).
