I think Microsoft originally said all phones would get all updates but you never know as even on iOS some early phones can't be updated anymore. I'd think GEN2 would be fine with a question mark over GEN1.
GEN1 owners should be eligible for upgrade when GEN3 is out though.

So where did the may update go?

The update that was to fix reboot and stability issues was the arrive last week, but it seems like its forgotten?
Not that i have problems, but the update did increase the speed of the phone and that is a big welcome

Given the history of promises left by LG and for us who have problems i think it's relevant thread.
LG Sweden "promised" that the magic fix will be availible May 27.
If i remember it correct the first "promise" was made April 16....
It's called the 'may update' for a reason I guess

then stop reading lol
Or even better... Just keep checking on your fone or on PC lol. Otherwise, this entire LG Optimus 2X General thread will be of “When's The Update Due?“.
Nobody knows, heck... Even LG don't know. One thing I never understand is threads like these tbh. Its LG you need to point the question too imho. They won't tell even if they did know, just WAIT.
Yes we all need 2.3GB but these threads don't make the update come quicker, instead they just fill you with more disappointment when someone happens to mention its due tomorrow... When.its not!.
Updates might sort out the current problems that we are all having, but with it... new ones will come to the surface. The grass is not always greener....

Which version you currently have in your device, made ​​free?
The version of LG PC suite that downloaded this morning was:
4.3.17.20110428 (Build 18800)
Also the LGMobile Support tool clicked up a version to 1.5.0.5
So, the latest version of PC suite found an update for my phone. Backing up so I can install it.

Where u from ? and what version ?

Is it wise to buy new Android device if there is a coming new model every month?

How do you know Android device will be updated and hardware is supported by the update.
So it is all being lucky?

[Q] Tmobile Nexus 6 Unlocking Bootloader and Warranty

Hello all,
I have a Nexus 6 (w/ Tmobile) and was curious: if I unlock the bootloader to flash 5.1 and then relock the bootloader, would that affect the warranty?
Also, if this question was already posted, please let me know. I looked and I haven't seen a question about it.
Thanks
Also: is there a way to move this thread to the q&a? Looks like i put it in the wrong place

Nope.
questions go into the q&a/help section, not the general section.
btw, i have a tmo n6 as well. i bought my n4 and n5 there as well. through the years, ive known people with issues who returned/exchanged devices there, it seems you arent allowed to, but most, not all, people ive known havent had issues exchanging devices when their bootloader is unlocked.

So assuming this update really happens we can say we're probably screwed. T-Mobile will probably push crap along with that update which I hope doesn't.

Android 5.1.1 OTA being rolled out on T-Mobile for the S6 edge!

RELEVANT TO US BECAUSE WHEN WE GET THE UPDATE, IT LOCKS THE BOOTLOADER.
IF THEY LOCK IT FOR THE S6 EDGE, THEY'LL LOCK IT FOR THE S6!
DO NOT TAKE THE OTA IF YOU DON'T WANT A LOCKED BOOTLOADER.
Unassuming Galaxy S6 edge users are in for a surprise, as T-Mobile appears to be rolling out a freshly cooked OTA based on Android version 5.1.1 Lollipop for the device. The catch, however, it is so far reported only on the T-Mobile network.
XDA forums user Sunderwear mentioned about the OTA a couple of hours back (at the time of writing this story). Urged by other users of the device, the poster also uploaded a video of his Galaxy S6 edge running the latest firmware. The video can be found at the end of this article.
As noted from the narration, the update also locks the bootloader on the device.
So, how many of you have already received the update? What do you think of it?
Source: http://www.sammobile.com/2015/04/29/android-5-1-1-ota-being-rolled-out-on-t-mobile-for-the-s6-edge/
Looks like someone in the Edge forum was able to downgrade the bootloader and flash TWRP but still, tread carefully.

ok I downgraded the Bootloader ONLY and I was able to flash TWRP...dumping a system.img copy..

Korean variants seem to be getting an app that unlocks the bootloader, I bet we start seeing that for other variants as well (except verizon/att).

Coming from the ROM Flashing mecca of HTC and finding a place in Samsung is.. weird to say the least. I find that there are only minor things I need that require root but I no-longer need the overhaul that I needed with HTC. It's too weird.

If/when anyone gets this update try to grab the update before taking it. Also, the bootloader Doesn't actually get locked.

BOOM. Bootloader news is great news
Isn't it odd that just one guy has gotten the update? T-mobile has sold hundreds of thousands of these units and only one guy got an OTA?
I'll believe it when I see it.
Is it possible to do the update if we are rooted? And I mean UPDATE not flash the entire new release.

This type of thing might happen with a lot of updates. You need to remember the rooting/moding community is very small compared to the people who just use their phone as is. So if anything I think its weird that someone in this community got the update.
Hey I hope it's true, I for one hope it fixes the memory management and battery issues.
According to this guy, it looks like the XDA member was part of a "Soak Test", or he is a guinea pig. Hopefully it doesn't take months to test it.

They're really not, actually. I imagine it would boot. My guess is touch screen wouldn't work though.

Damn I wish this would leak for AT&T. 5.0.1 TW has a bigger memory leak than stock 5.0.1 on my Nexus. This needs to be rolled out ASAP, but I know it won't.

OREO IS COMING! and it's 8.1(official) for g5s+

https://support.motorola.com/us/en/Solution/MS129979
Any info about 64bit/32bit?
moto g5s plus
This device will be upgraded to the Android 8 (Oreo) release of Android, pending partner support.
Do you have the latest Motorola software
I bought mine at Best Buy
Will almost certainly be 32Bit.
And we will still be waiting a while because the notes say that we get security up thru June 1st which hasn't happened yet. So implementing that will take probably a week at least. Soak testing will take probably 2 weeks, so we will probably see it late June/early July.
It sucks that they aren't doing anything about our awful camera(s).
Android OEMs get the contents of the security updates weeks in advance, so it's understandable that they'd release the June security update a few days early. It happens all the time with manufacturers that actually release updates often.

The camera on the G5+ was better than the dual setup on the G5s+ that's what I think the guy above is referring to.
"Sorry, the document you have requested is not available.
Please visit our homepage to get support for your product."
It's been coming since it was announced a year ago "from this fall". It'll be coming in a few months. Nothing to see here - literally.

When I bought the
g5s+ I was disappointed with their cameras quality. But after March update of Camera app it's much better. Of course in low light environment I also see so much noise but this is phone camera, not SLR.

the user ln top said that 8.1 release notes came back.. that's the link he's asking for
But They aren't back. They changed the info on that page to show the June security patch instead of the oreo release. At this point, I've given up. In December, when I get my new phone, I'll be going to the nokia 6.1, which is an Android One device.
