Xda-developers LG G3 G3 General [KDZ][D855 only] Lollipop / 5.0 V20A Final KDZ NO BETA by rainbowsixpro1 XDA Developers was founded by developers, for developers. It is now a valuable resource for people who want to make the most of their mobile devices, from customizing the look and feel to adding new functionality. First LG G4 got the Android M update and I published a successful procedure on how to Downgrade LG G4 to 5.1.1 Lollipop. Now I will show you how you can downgrade your LG G3 to stock lollipop firmware.
LG G3 from Verizon is still stuck on Android 4.4 KitKat, but not for long. It appears that the Big Red may have already started the roll-out of the Android 5.0 Lollipop update for LG's flagship smartphone.
Unfortunately, the information hasn't been confirmed by Verizon yet, but a few LG G3 owners report they have been able to download and upgrade to Android 5.0 Lollipop.
However, since Verizon did not make any announcement and there are only a few LG G3 users that claim they now have Lollipop on their smartphones, it's likely that this is just a soft launch of the update.
If you don’t know the model name or number, you can start to narrow your search down by choosing which category of Samsung device you have (such as Printer, Scanner, Video, Network, etc.). Samsung laptop usb controller driver. Choose the best match for your PC and operating system.
The update is pushed OTA (over the air) in small batches, and considering previous experiences, it may take a few weeks until all LG G3 owners receive the upgrade at Verizon.
At least two LG G3 owners have received the update
Droid-Life reports that at least two LG G3 devices now have Android 5.0.1 Lollipop installed and their owners can consider themselves lucky, as they are among the few who got it.
One LG G3 owner complains on Verizon's forum that his smartphone with Android 5.0.1 Lollipop onboard is experiencing an SMS bug. The reply from Verizon's support team states that Lollipop is not yet available for LG G3, so the SMS bug shouldn't happen at all.
Obviously, this isn't true as the owner the G3 came back with more details and posted the software version, which match those of the Android 5.0 Lollipop that should roll out at Verizon.
The second lucky LG G3 owner got a replacement smartphone from Verizon, and when he fired it up, he noticed that there's a new software available for download.
The latter confirmed on G+ that the update is indeed Android 5.0.1 Lollipop and that he was able to download and install it on his smartphone.
While it's still unclear whether Verizon has started the rollout of Android 5.0.1 Lollipop or not, it's certain that at least some LG G3 users have gotten the update.
A few days back, AT&T started the rollout of much awaited Android 5.0 Lollipop software update for LG G2 (D800). The update is available to download via Firmware Over The Air (FOTA) and requires Wi-Fi to update. The update installs v5.0.2 of Lollipop and updates LG G2 from software version D80020y to D80030f.
Luckily, it removes some of the bloatware which includes: Browser Bar, Famigo, AT&T Code Scanner and Beats Music. There are still a lot of pre-installed apps that you can choose to disable. What’s great is that this major update doesn’t impact your phone settings or data but AT&T recommends users to backup their contacts and files.
Users on AT&T network can simply check for the update from: All Settings > General > About phone > Software update > Update Now. But as the updates are pushed in batches, it may take some time to appear on your device. In case you’ve purchased a factory unlocked AT&T LG G2 (like me in India), then you won’t get the Lollipop OTA update on your G2 unless you’re using an AT&T SIM card on your phone. That’s really disappointing but don’t worry, we’ve you covered!
Follow the below stated step-by-step procedure to install the official Lollipop OTA update on your LG G2 (D800) from AT&T without the need to wait for FOTA update or their SIM card. I’ve tried it on my AT&T G2 in India and it worked like a charm. The guide may look uneasy but once you follow all steps carefully, you can easily update your phone without any issues. All the apps and data remain intact.
Disclaimer: Try this guide at your own risk! We won’t be responsible if you break it.
NOTE: This guide is meant ONLY for the AT&T version of LG G2 with model no. D800. DO NOT try it on any other variant of LG G2 as that may brick your device.
- Make sure your phone is charged
- Proceed with extreme caution and follow each step correctly
- Back up all of your data (just in case, always safe to be cautious than sorry!)
