Android L is pretty close now so i have to ask..will LG update the phone to android L probably or maybe not?
If not would a dev be able to utilise that?
Android "L" is not pretty close, it will be released around November.

A new rumor has pegged the Sony Xperia Z1 and ZU to be getting the Android 4.4 KitKat update on the 7th of November.
This is a little surprising as both Z devices currently run on Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean. so I think it would be wise to take this rumor with a pinch of salt. Android 4.4 is close to being officially announced, but it’s almost impossible to predict when Sony will roll out the update to their devices.
The only logical explanation for me would be if Sony decides to skip the Android 4.3 update entirely to make the jump to 4.4...
However the more likely... Sony updating our devices to 4.3. or perhaps 4.3.1 in November...
Quote from Sony Xperia Blog :
"The likelihood is that the flagship Xperia Z series will see the update to Android 4.3 before the Xperia SP, so we may end up seeing the v4.3 update land even before December."
maybe Sony will bestow us a early Christmas present :angel:
Since sony seem to release a flagship each 6 months.. what is the support expiration for the z2? can we expect getting at least 2 years support?
Depends on what you mean by support? I'd hope we'll see support for new Android versions for at least another 18 months, but I suppose it depends if Google move to x64 for Android M .

at least 18 month..... heh... wishful thinking.
Z got just 12 moths of android updates.
Z2 will get "L", no doubt about it. Don't think we will see "M" on our Z2 officially (even if the hardware allows).
Xperia Z launched March 2013 latest official update (4.4.2) May 2014 and Xperia blog has it that 4.4.4 is on its way.
18 months official support
ends in mid october 2015 as noted by sony customer support
-may be stretched if the device is popular

I will drink a beer (or something stronger) if it happens
Does anyone know what will happen when Android gets to Z? What will the following version be called? Will it start from A again?

Maybe Z1

ANDROID Lollipop for LG G2 general discussion (news&leaks&problems&expectations)
LG G2 Android 5.0 Lollipop Update Confirmed, Could Arrive Early 2015
Android 5.0 Lollipop was officially announced earlier this month and since then many Android OMEs revealed their plans to update their devices to the new Android version. LG Germany revealed in a post on their Facebook page that the LG G2 Android 5.0 Lollipop update is coming.
The said post was actually made to announce that the update for LG G3 will arrive in the last quarter of the year, but it also mentioned about the company’s flagship smartphone from last year. It says that the Android 5.0 Lollipop for LG G2 “will follow,” which might mean early 2015.
We are glad to see that LG is not forgetting about the owners of “older” devices. I am sure that the LG G2 Android 5.0 Lollipop update will be warmly welcomed by everybody.
As you may know, Android 5.0 is the biggest update Google’s mobile platform has received since its debut. It’s even bigger than the jump from Gingerbread to Ice Cream Sandwich. The new Android iteration arrives with redesigned notifications panel and quick settings, it brings lock screen notifications, battery saver mode, multi-user support for phones, a new design philosophy called Material design, a dynamic status bar, revised recents screen, support for 64-bit processor, Android Runtime (ART), and many more.
What are your expectations for the Android 5.0 Lollipop update for LG G2? Please let us know in the comments section below.

yet another Lollypop thread? c'mon
I truly expect my G2 phone, after update to L, will "suddenly" become 6", QHD screen with 3.0GHz processor and 4GB or RAM and battery lasts 2 weeks with moderate use.
Wait ............. not doable? If so, I expect nothing then.
Sad!

It's a bit early to be sure. No one really knows what the final version of android P will bring to the table. Maybe there will be features not compatible with the honor 9 hardware. All in all, until we know what android P will be, there's no way to know if the honor 9 will receive. There will be a million articles speculating on what phone will get what and when, but until there is an official announcement, no one knows.
honestly its well to early to say it would get P or not id be surprised if it did
Of course H9 will get Android P, come on guys, it's very clear with Huawei: Midrange devices get 1 major update, flagships get 2 major updates. Now with project Treble they might raise the update count by 1.
