LG CEO vows better smartphone OS upgrades and support? - LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion

Source: https://www.zdnet.com/article/lg-ceo-vows-better-smartphone-os-upgrades-and-support/
"LG formed the centre earlier this year and began operations last month. The centre, located at LG Science Park, the conglomerate's campus in Seoul, focuses on providing fast operating system upgrades and after-sales care for consumers.
Its main priority is offering stable support for non-routine OS upgrades to customers and to manage software of phones globally, not just in South Korea."
How do you think about it?

They are even late for April 1st jokes..
A good bull**** to attract the future buyers of the G7, they will be able to read the same **** at the exit of the G8 when they will not have had their update ^^

Lol sure.....

hahaha...another way to sell their phones...i dont buy LG phone again they didnt release oreo but they introduced new phone G7...lol

Remember when LG was the first (or one of the) to release Android Lollipop and Marshmallow? LG released Nougat 3-4 months after Google released it. Now they're dead last among flagship brands. My next phone will not be a LG.
Lollipop: https://www.engadget.com/2014/11/09/lg-first-with-lollipop-upgrades/
Marshmallow: https://www.engadget.com/2015/10/15/lg-g4-marshmallow-update/
Nougat: https://www.androidauthority.com/android-7-0-update-679175/

Wow so LG have been lying to us about the content of the (few) updates we have received too.

So LG could you tell me where is the Nougat update for G4? And Oreo for G5?

that's funny.

If they release a new phone before updating their current flagship, I'm staying away from this garbage company. Even Samsung's starting to get faster with updates.

SO was out before oreo for the s8 fully rolled out

They will definitely release G7 before updating G6 to Oreo. I strongly believe that during the presentation they will say that G7 has the latest Android with new UX and new ThinQ functions. They've claimed that some of the functions from ThinQ line will be available to G6 so they won't give us new functions before the release of G7. I think that even V30 won't receive the update to Oreo before G7 launch and Oreo will be the last major update for G6. G6 will be also my last LG phone even if I really love camcorder manual mode.

[Q] Optimus SOl (E730) will it be possible to install ICS?

Hello,
First of all i wanna say i couldn't find any thread about LG optimus sol (E730).
My question is "Will it be possible for this phone to run ICS ever?"
And by that i mean is there any chance for LG to update the phone or is any dev willing to bring an ICS rom to this device or are there ROMS from other LG phones that are compatible to this one?
I am considering buying this phone so any answer/advice would be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Don't buy it , no Dev support and lg will take years to provide ics upgrade x
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
I just bought it. I'll know more in a few days I think but so far is a decent choice for its price. The phone appeared only at the end of September so I think this is the explanation for the fact that there are no custom ROMs. I guess in few months we'll know if it will be a hit and will get better support from LG or our beloved devs. If only the phone will repeat at least half of the success story of Optimus One we'll be lucky....
It will get an official ICS update in the 2nd quarter of 2012, together with the P990 and that PRADA phone. The P970 and the Optimus 3D will get an ICS update in the 3rd quarter.
I'd like to post the Source, but i only have 2 posts, so i'm not allowed to post outside links... so... yeah, just check LGs Facebook page:
Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) OS Upgrade Schedule said:
LG will be offering the Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) OS upgrade for a range of LG smart-phones which were introduced this year. The global upgrade schedule will begin in the second and third quarters of 2012, which will be followed by a global roll out.
During the second quarter of 2012 upgrades will begin for the following smartphone models: the LG Optimus LTE, Prada phone by LG 3.0, the LG Optimus 2X, the LG Optimus Sol, the LG my Touch Q and the LG Eclipse. These upgrades will be followed by upgrades for the following smartphone models during the third quarter of 2012: the LG Optimus 3D, the LG Optimus Black, the LG Optimus Big, the LG Optimus Q2 and the LG Optimus EX.
LG will be taking all possible measure to offer a smooth OS upgrade in a timely manner. The exact start dates can vary by market, as each country can have different requirements, depending on the carrier and the smartphone model.
LG would like to thank its customers for their most valued loyalty and support. Further details on the ICS OS upgrade, including their exact start dates, will be released prior to their commencement. Please stay tuned for more updates from LG.
Thank you.

It offers quite a decent bang for the buck, but indeed, it has very little dev support so far. I'd probably fork out a little more dough and get the P990 instead.
PS: Of course the release dates are to be taken with a grain of salt - it's LG after all.
i just bought th optimus sol and I have to say it blew my mind. I previously owned an LG optimistic one. I find smartphone with 4 inch displays to be a bit too large for me. It is very fast and I am glad it will recieve ICS after all.
Really this phone does not deserve any attention from the XDA community? There is no thread allocated but only mentioned in a few posts. That's a shame...
Probably this phone will catch attention but in the near future.
It is really a nice phone for its price
Indeed.

Ok, so far almost no E730 user has any interest in developing this phone. The phone will get custom roms if he has a forum on XDA. A forum won't appear unless we vote too. So get all our friends and stuff to vote.
PS Thanks God for CyanogenMod... at lease we have A custom rom.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Only if the devs decide that the LG G3 is worthy. Let me explain. I just got off the phone with LG and they said they don't support any software (Android) for their phones. They said to call my carrier to find out if there are updates. I asked them about newer versions of Android and they said I would need to talk to the carrier. So I am going to call the carrier and I almost bet that they will say I need to talk to LG. I am calling Sprint now to find out if that is true.

The G3 will get 5.0 don't be ridiculous. Full source for 5.0 isn't even out yet and you're already calling LG and Sprint.
How a member since 2010 could not know this blows my mind.
You're doing nothing but wasting your own time.

First of all I did not call them to find out when they were going to upgrade to 5.0, I am not an idiot. The reason I called is because, since I have owned this device I have not received one update for this phone. I also red in an article that the LG G3 was supposed to get a 4.4.4 update by the end of September.
http://www.androidsas.com/2014/09/lg-g3-to-get-android-444-kitkat-update.html
So while I was on the phone with LG customer service they proceeded to pass the buck to Sprint and Google as if they are not the ones who deal with their own Android updates.
A provider or MFG will not randomly give out information regarding updates. Don't be naive.
Samsung's L version is already in the works and been leaked. LG is obviously developing it's version. I would imagine it will be released by the end of the year. Sprint is usually pretty good at pushing updates to the current year's flagships.

All of that aside, the idea that any front-line support staff from any company is going to have that kind of detailed information from the developers and engineering is just ludicrous. Frontline techs know exactly what is written in their scripts on the computer and nothing more. Why would you even waste time asking them that?

Just a heads up. The customer service rep from LG was just blowing smoke up your ass either because they didn't know or you came across like an ass and they wanted you off the phone.
The way it works is as follows:
Google makes the OS and sends it to the manufactures (LG, Samsung, HTC) where they tweak it for their devices and put in any overlays (Touchwiz, Blur, Sense) before sending it to the carrier. The carrier then tests said OS\devices on their netywork while adding their own bloatware.
IF everything tests with in their liking they will release to the public IF NOT then it goes back to the manufacturer for more tweaking. Wash rinse repeat until you get it.
You can call Sprint and LG support all you like and will likely get different answers depending on who you talk to BUT regardless of who you speak with none of them have a clue at the call center of what is happening when.
Their job is to read a script and do a profile update or whatever is all and then pass it along if they can't get you off the line.
Welcome to smart phones and carriers 101.
The only reason I want LG and Sprint to have an l version someday is we will have a decent build for the devs to take apart. I'm sure there gonna take there time.
This will be on Sprint. And Sprint is VERY slow to roll out any updates. Don't expect it any time soon, unless they feel like they should keep up on their flagship device.

Installed lollipop on my nexus 5, damn is so smooth and all the animations looks really cool, cant wait to see it on the G3, after using my G3 for sometime the nexus feels too small.
Posted by android authority news today
The arrival of a new Android OS version leaves us all asking one big question – will my device receive the update?
To help narrow down your search we have put together a master list of all the devices which will be receiving Android Lollipop at some point in the future. We’ll be updating the list regularly, so if you find a source that confirms another handset will be lucky enough to receive Lollipop, please do let us know.
Without further delay:
HTC
HTC has been pretty open about its update policy and announced that it would be bringing Android Lollipop to its HTC One range within 90 days of the OS’ launch. A leaked roadmap also suggests that Lollipop will be heading to a number of other handsets.
One (M8) – confirmed by HTC
One (M7) – confirmed by HTC
One Mini 2
One Mini – confirmed by HTC
One E8
One Max
Butterfly S
Desire 816
Desire 610
LG
LG has remained tight lipped about its update plans, although numerous sources suggests that its G3 and G2 flagships are in-line for an update at some point. Other devices remain unknown for now.
G3 – rumored but unconfirmed
G2 – rumored but unconfirmed
Motorola
Following the announcement of the Nexus 6, Motorola confirmed that its recent range of handsets would all recieve an update to Lollipop. The following have all been confirmed directly by Motorola.
Moto X (1st Gen. & 2nd Gen.)
Moto G (1st Gen. & 2nd Gen.)
Moto G with 4G LTE
Moto E
Droid Ultra, Droid Maxx, and Droid Mini
Nexus
After releasing details on its new Nexus devices, Google confirmed that handsets and tablets going back to the Nexus 4 would be receiving Lollipop. The latest reports suggest that an OTA update is scheduled for November 3rd 2014.
The Nexus 4, 5, 7 (WiFi & LTE), and Nexus 10 have all been confirmed by Google and the Nexus 6 and 9 will ship with the latest OS. Google mentioned that GPE handsets would also be among the first to receive an update.
OnePlus
With just one handset to maintain, the OnePlus One will see Lollipop within 3 months of the OS’ release.
OnePlus One – confirmed by OnePlus
Samsung
Just like LG, Samsung hasn’t given out any official information regarding handset updates. The only hint we’ve seen of Android 5.0 on a Samsung device comes from a leaked preview build running on the Galaxy S5.
Galaxy S5 – leaked preview
Sony
Sony has announced that it will be bringing Android 5.0 to all Xperia Z devices, not just its flagships. All of the following have been confirmed by Sony, although a timeframe has not been listed.
Xperia Z3
Xperia Z3 Compact
Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact
Xperia Z3v
Xperia Z2
Xperia Z1
Xperia Z1 Compact
Xperia Z
Xperia Tablet Z
Xperia Z Ultra
Xperia ZL
Xperia ZR
Android One
The Karbonn Sparkle V, Micromax Canvas A1, and Spice Dream Uno will receive Android Lollipop “soon” after the full launch of the new version.
Karbonn Sparkle V – guaranteed by Google
Micromax Canvas A1 – guaranteed by Google
Spice Dream Uno – guaranteed by Google
We’ll be updating the list with the latest news when we hear it, so stick this page in your bookmarks. If you have any questions or want to send us a tip about Lollipop updates, head on over to our forums and drop us a line.
I wish LG would take a hint from HTC and Sony when it comes to developer support. HTC learned from their mistakes and Sony has really impressed me(too bad xperia isnt on Sprint).
In any case, LG has gotten better with their updates but Sprint is still slow imo. And when I say better I mean the rumor mill was rampant back on my Lg Optimus G. 4.1.2 was the last update that phone had even though rumors of 4.4 were everywhere for months.
The only reason I want an official 5.0 is for a reason that was already stated(and the same reason I wanted one on the lgog) - a solid base for the devs to work their magic with.
But being on xda does make it a bit of a moot point, the devs will cook something up much sooner then LG/Sprint. Really I just feel bad for those poor fools who have never used xda - they're stuck with whatever they got and have no idea of all the awesome things goin on - or even the true power of the G3.

Sprint has usually been the first ones to release updates compared to the other 3 carries.
And this is why Android gets such a bad rap, if the carriers would take their blinders off and just let the manufacturers update their phones, things wouldnt be so bad. Instead we have to wait for 40 things to happen before our phones get updated to the latest version. Google letting android go to anyone is really what the problem was, licensing out the OS and then letting everyone do what they want with it has really slowed down updates to a crawl. Its honestly getting really stupid and I hope (not that I'm an apple fan by any stretch) that Google eventually just goes the way Apple did and make their OS required to be vanilla on any device that uses it, no more Touchwiz or Blinkfeed or anything else. All those things do is require everyone to get Googles update, tinker with things a bunch until that update now works with their crap overlays and apps and THEN have to worry about the carrier "allowing" the update after all of that is done, its really ridiculous and in this sense, Apple did things right. Google needs to get this under control, when only 25% of your user base is actually on KitKat, its no wonder Apple does so well with the devices and their OS.
So now I get to sit and wait months and months for a proper 5.0 update. Its great that XDA can probably get some things going before that ever hits, but nothing is better than a good ROM designed after the official update

The problem with your post is this.
If Google kept android to themselves then they would be JUST like APPLE. If HTC, Samsung, LG, Motorola or any other android device ran the same vanilla style then every phone would basically be the same. That's why Samsung, HTC, LG, and every other implement things like Touch wiz, Blur or what have you. That way they are not the same and it gives every person a choice unlike Crapple

Blehhh. I hate to crush everyone's dreams, but cmon. Look how old this phone is, why would lg update this phone, what benefit will they get from doing it? And who will be mad if they don't?

I hope we don't get the HTC treatment, I'm betting we will. This phone is well past the 18- month life expectancy. I'm sure a G3 M port will show up around here eventually.
Well Verizon G2 got lollipop before G3, so who knows what might happen.
As said in another post from another user, g2 fan base is bigger than g3 and g4 one
They NEED to update g2, if they do it, they will have only benefits from who is happy with g2, and will re buy a LG phone
Sorry for english ^^
Inviato dal mio LG-D802 utilizzando Tapatalk
If the G2 gets 6.0 upgrade, I don't think it is because LG wants to make us happy but it is a selling argument for them for the most recent flagship, like "Look, if you buy our phone, we will continue to maintain it when two new generations are available". If I didn't have a G2 yet, that would be a compelling argument for me to buy LG (G4, for example).
G2 mini is just barely 18 months old. Lame if they dont give one last and final update.
One time plz lg [emoji120]
Enviado desde mi LG-D802 mediante Tapatalk
Would be very great if the G2 gets an Update to M and not only G2 Users would benefit from an Upgrade also LG,because it would mean that the G2 had a Support for more than 2 years (which would be way better than other competitors like HTC,.)
that will be great. show that LG is a company which supports products longer than other companies.

Take a calendar, go to February, cross out days 1-15, then throw a dart on it. Pretty much as accurate of a guess as any.
It really sucks that LG has decided to shaft it's flagship in order to release 6.0 first on the G4, when all their advertising is for the v10.

I hate to say it, but the V10 is far from their flagship device. Maybe after releasing V10 variants a few times it'll get there. Until then, the G series is still considered the LG flagship, even if it is cheaper. I love the V10 more than most and I'm sure we will have MM sooner than later.

Exactly. The G series is their flagships. Their others are, honestly, niche devices that they don't really focus all their efforts on.

Yes it sucks, but looking at LG's previous flagships, I'm not even surprised, and I did not have high expectations. Nevertheless I'm almost certain that we'll get pie somewhere in 2019. I bought my g6 because it was cheap, had a high quality build and a stellar camera. However, I do miss stock android on my nexus 5x, and if we won't get any news about pie until Q3, then I'll probably root my phone and install a custom rom.

i dont know what phone you came from before your G6 but saying G6 have "stellar camera", men, you are so wrong. i can say thats my old V10 have better camera quality in photo and video than my G6 from far far away, G6 have a better screen with HDR and thats what mask the quality of the photos...and they are OK, not stellar.
Video from G6 its the worst i ever see in a high end phone, ridiculous over sharpened imagedestroy all the quality on videos...its a gorgerous device but in cameras my V10 do better for sure.
Now, talking about Pie, we will get it, maybe mid-July or after July until December this year yeah, cause G7, V30, V40 are first to this update roadmap by device age thats make sense...but yes we gonna get it, sooner or later...
hope to see some UI/UX changes like volume slider on the side instead of top and so little changes like that will bring to this device another life.

I came from the nexus 5x, and I have not tried the camera om the LG V10, but it's hard for me to belive, that it's better than that of the g6. After I started using gcam, the photos began to look great. Although I do agree that the video sucks on the g6, however I don't use my phone to record videos. The only real complaints I have with the g6 are the slow updates and the terrible battery life.
Anyways back to the topic, I do agree with you, and I hope we'll see LG make some UI changes, because I'm quite frankly tired of how the UI looks. But knowing LG, they'll probably do a security patch, make the navbar icons more rounded and call it a day.

i dont know what phone you came from before your G6 but saying G6 have "stellar camera", men, you are so wrong. i can say thats my old V10 have better camera quality in photo and video than my G6 from far far away, G6 have a better screen with HDR and thats what mask the quality of the photos...and they are OK, not stellar.
Video from G6 its the worst i ever see in a high end phone, ridiculous over sharpened imagedestroy all the quality on videos...its a gorgerous device but in cameras my V10 do better for sure.

you are so right ... my Lg g4 camera was better than the f** G6 ...
Sent from my LG-H870DS using XDA-Developers Legacy app
...... then I'll probably root my phone and install a custom rom.

lol with which custom rom ? the roms that are there, are just as bad how lg his update plans to Pie :laugh:
Seriously there would be good custom rom, and many here have stopped developing for the G6 custom roms
I concur the camera sucks unless you are outdoors.
My camera works fine indoors and I almost never use the flash. Having said that, I don't think we are getting Pie and I frankly don't care. The phone works fine as is and there is nothing in Pie that I really need. Updating just introduces other problems.

If the g6 gets android pie they'll update the UI to the lg g7 UI cause for lg every 2nd major update they update the UI to the latest. Like the g3 when it got android 6.0 the UI got updated to UX 4.0 (lg g4 UI) or the lg g5 getting updated to android 8.0 it got UX 6.0 (lg g6 Oreo UI)
