Android 6.0 Marshmallow. Any news??? - Sprint LG G3

Hi folks
Is there any news about updating of our device for Andrew 6.0???

That's what I have been found, for a while
http://neurogadget.com/2015/09/03/lg-g-flex-2-lg-g4-lg-g3-lg-g-pad-ii-10-1-and-lg-g-pad-10-1-with-android-6-0-marshmallow-update/14357

Unfounded rumors. The sole purpose of this "article" is to attract page views. Considering that G2 received the 5.0 upgrade, I'd say 6.0 for G3 is possible few month after release.

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!

Why there are almost no Chinese tablets with android lollipop? Read More at : freak

Hi
I was wondering why there are almost no Chinese tablets with android lollipop.
You can look at aliexpress and see that almost 95% percent of the tablet are android kitkat. And its already a year after the release.
Also I have not seen any rockchip based tablet with android lollipop.
It might be that the industry will skip a release?
Thanks.

Huawei's performance on the security updates?

Honor 5x is reaching its two year mark, I was curious to know what people thought of the Huawei's performance in regards to updates? In a blog post on the Huawei site, Huawei promises to provide feature update for 2 years from release and then provide security update for a unspecified amount of time.
For their feature upgrades, it appears that they upgrade to Mashmallow, but then failed to update to Nougat because Google failed to support their device's upgrade to Nougat (!?).
So how well have Huawei performed compare to their competitors? Based on info on the T-mobile website, it would appear that most phone get quarterly updates for roughly 3 years.

Some variants had no updates for more than 6 months. If I'm not wrong, some even haven't received Marshmallow yet. My L21 (EU) received september patch in november, and here, now it's march of 2017, nothing. One not-working january update (OTA not available, firmware downloaded via FF can't be installed - fails at random percentage, and it's not available as full image) and that's it.
Still, that's much better than my previous experience with LG (phone came with 4.1.2, got only one, buggy update - 4.4.2 a year later, and that was the end of the line, Lollipop came only for Korean variant; bootloader not unlockable, device basically running on hacks (sooo many unnecessary source changes by LG... and device was nearly 3x more the price I paid for L21).
Nougat update wasn't provided because they pushed out Honor 6X on their home-brewed chipset, so I guess 5X is a collateral damage with it's snapdragon requiring Huawei to obtain newer blobs. I guess that's how stuff work.
Luckily, we have good community

They don't. They are 3 separate teams. While the Chinese and US teams skip numbers (B32? A little bit too much?) our team doesn't. i meant that as proof that they aren't the same team.
Also, if the Chinese version gets O and ours stops being supported, we can just make a custom ROM and install it on our phones. I'm using MiFavor 5 right now on my G
MiFavor 5.2 android 8.0: A short video posted by the same user on 4pda.
I think Axon 8 or 9, whatever they will call it will be next year and we will see Oreo on all A7 variants. It's in ZTE's best interest to get Oreo out and try to keep owners happy and start building some brand loyalty to keep us from buying something else before the next Axon flagship.

We'll soon have a nice and decent derivate of this MF5.2 Oreo for our G and U model if the official one is released

Vivo System and Security update Frequency??

Biggest drawback of Vivo mobile devices are its lack of system (Android and Funtouch bug fixes) and security updates OTA delivery compare to other brands (Realme, MI, Samsung,..)
Is there anything we can do to **PUSH** Vivo to make them accountable to provide better and faster software updates????
Due to this Vivo devices gets out dated too soon in market... And you end up looking for another brand device.
Unfortunately, Vivo does not realise this hampers there own brand value.
Thia was one of the biggest reason I moved away / refrain buying Huawei and specially Lenovo, LG, Motorola phones as all of them had very poor after sale software update Frequency..

I did some more research and seems Funtouch has improved a lot in terms of experience and ease of usage. Still require some quirks clean-up
However, X50 and X50 pro updates were very slow
So, if you buy Vivo's latest and greatest phone running on Funtouch or Android 11 there is no guarantee you will get Android 12 ( or on time). I couldn't find, on Vivo official site update release plan list anywhere.
Also what is the story of Origin OS ?? How Vivo's development team focusing on improving Funtouch or Origin OS??

Funtouch is developed for non Chinese market (stock based)
OriginOS is only for chinese devices
Funtouch global is more updated then chinese one. X51 (european version of X50 Pro) is on Android 11 from december and has March patches
