Ya, I don't believe that for a second. Never heard of that website and there are bigger sites like androidauthority.com and androidpolice.com that would've reported this. Until I see it on there I highly doubt this is true.

I really hope you are right. It would not make sense for this relatively new phone not to get it.
Man chill out, those are fake news. It is 100% sure that our V10 will get nougat update. You just have to wait after G6 goes to sale.
I have had lg phones for awhile but the V10 will be my last lg product. The lg g3 an LG G2 were both very good down hill from there although I love the V10 it just isn't supported by devs or lg.

Don't they use CB radios to chat in the South?
"When asked by an XDA member regarding the availability of the OS for the 2015 flagships, the rep said that there won’t be a Nougat release for these phones in South Korea."
I'm pretty sure all of us here outside of South Korea are safe and will get the update in due time.
Hope

Hope you read about what happened in Estonia recently .!
I don't see a big reason to jump from 4.1.2 to 4.3 ! It would have been better , much better if it were Kitkat.

first 4.3 Then 4.4
I highly doubt about OG updated to 4.4 !! Considering the LG update policy.
SOmehow I find it hard to believe or rather say "trust" in the support agents.
But if this is true , and is on it's way soon . Then its good.

before i ask at&t i ask LG about the update and they said that it was up to the carrier to update there devices so this is another hope that we will receive the update. And we know we cant trust the Agents but this can be true
Well I guess we'll find out by next Spring if they were lying.
Some random CS agent on a chat is hardly surefire proof that there will be an update for this device. It's dead as far as ATT is concerned. They've already forgotten about the people who bought the G2, which is 2 generations newer than this device. Just hang out here, use the awesome ROMs that our devs bust their ass to build, and enjoy a device that is better than ATT could ever make it.

In news : G2 is getting update 4.4 Kitkat internationally . First week of January.
If there's news about G2 getting updates , but no news about OG , then it's probably the End.
Looks like he was just trying to get rid of you...
But if its real, then it would be great!
It has been almost 2 months since the original post and there is still no sign that LG Optimus G will be updated to KitKat. Doesn't matter, I already did my own update to 4.4.2 a month ago and it has been running smooooothly.

SFR said that LG confirmed the update. Either way, this is pretty great news. Let's hope it makes it's way to the AT&T variant
I dont care if the carrier releases it(it would be nice tho) just as long as an official LG optimus G rom is out there I will put it on my phone. I just love the LG UI. I am using a cm11 which is pretty good
Actually, E970 should get Kit Kat earlier than the other variants
LG has already updated the User Agent Profile on its official website:
Old http://gsm.lge.com/html/gsm/E970-M6-D1.xml
New http://gsm.lge.com/html/gsm/E970-M10-D1-KK.xml
G Pro now has a similar profile and it has been updated recently:
http://gsm.lge.com/html/gsm/E980-M10-D1-KK.xml
You can try to put different numbers instead of "970" and check corresponding UAPs

Basically, these links detail backend support details about the system for the official E970 KitKat ROM. It doesn't really contain anything particularly useful per se, but the fact that it exists shows that official KitKat Does exist for the E970.

This is awesome. I sure hope AT&T delivers on this one.
Yeah, I don't expect this at all, with how bad LG is with updating their phones, plus AT&T pushing an update out on a phone this old. I really hope they do, but I have no hope they will.
Still no news about the update for e970. :/
But the official kitkat port is really smooth and stable. I'm grateful that we have such awesome developers working for our device.
im having trouble with messaging threads on Paulicat's but other than that and wifi shutting off every once and a while the rom is better than an lg/att release of it. Their release would have too much bloatware.

I saw that there was a software update for the G3. I saw it at gsmarena but I am unable to post a link.
I downloaded the LG Support Tool, but my Sprint G3 cannot connect because the tool does not have drivers for the LGLS990. It is supposed to improve battery life and speed up the UI, basically getting rid of any perceived lag.

No apology necessary. That article was vague on which g3 got the update. There are so many variants of each phone these days, that you have to be careful to make sure you are reading about the right version you have.

P.S. I'm hoping that it has something to do with boost mobile hopefully adding the g3 to the approved devices list.
I'll just stick to speculating it's the monthly security updates LG said it would start doing. Shame Sprint will drag their feet so it won't really be current. Oh and Monthly or so updates are gonna be darn annoying dealing with rerooting and all that jazz.

The ZVC RDF was posted around the 17th of October. Almost 3 weeks ago, so it's not am old RDF. They have not changed barely anything in the RDF since the initial release, and ZVB was listed the same way, and it was still 5.0.1. The only important thing the RDF shows is that someone at Sprint is working on an update. Who knows what version the actual update will be.

It's not the G3 but it is 6.0. Being that the current firmware for the G3 is ZVB let's assume that 4.4.2 listed on ZVC is just because they haven't fully updated the rdf page. I don't see why they would release 5.1 instead of just skipping it for 6.0.

Lots of self supporting going on there. I wouldn't be so confident. But, you, know more than I, clearly, about some stuff.
the readme in the source says download 5.0.1_r1 source and merge. thats the same as zva said, i believe. and the ZVB Build is using build LRX21Y which is somewhere between 5.0.0_r7 and 5.0.1_r1. hmmm

I probably average at least one rom flash every month anyway, so I guess I do get monthly updates. There's probably nothing in the monthly updates I worry about anyway.

Not just device dependant either. Some phones only get updates from the carriers and that can be pathetic. Carriers are quick to mark a phone "end of life" and when that happens forget any updates. Smartphone manufacturers are also beholden to cell phone carriers, who can delay updates by months on their networks. Also, Android can be a bit of a mess since any manufacturer can make a smartphone or tablet, throw Android on it, and release it. So, the things that make Android so great are also some of the same things that hold it back in some areas.
