Hello I bought yesterday a 4x HD
and would like to update it to the newest available android version.
In the about dialog it says "LG-P880-V10f-AUG-17-2012" is this a version with unlock-able boot-loader?
The phone was bought in Austria in a normal PC components retails tore and as far as i can see it is not branded in any way except LG

the smartest thing to do is to wait a little longer , the official update is next week normally and cm 10.1 will also be released after the official release

Ah cool, i did not know that, just that it would be in the first quarter of 2013, if its next week i will of cause wait.
Does my rooting survive the upgrade or do i have to root again?

No survivors till now... they all died but, there is some kind of "artificial insemination" that make it re-born
Yes, you'll need to root it again but in V20A its easier, hope it works for the official one.
Just wondering the mess that it will be next week around here...
When V20A leaked, it was a new post every minute. with the official one out, Jesuuuuuusssssss!!! :angel:

Is the official upgrade out yet, is it, is it, is it
Also if it is does it still have the unlocked bootloader, or was that only a feature of the beta?

There is a downgrade protection that does not let you flash previous firmware which is only bypassed by boot loader unlocked. There currently is no way to relock until newer firmware comes out.
My patience has wore thin day by day.
What's the heck wrong with Motorola?
I think they were working on the memory issue before re-releasing the OTA update. Still, I'm surprised it's taking them this long.

No i didn't, one of my 2 G stuck on the 21.11.23. However, I just have a chat with a motorola customer service. Giving them the IMEI, and he/she confirms me that the batch update for my specific phone will be delivered within next-week, which is not a so bad news.
So if you're out of patience. It's a good way to contact Motorola
Let's hope that s/he tells you the truth.
Please let us know on or before 1/19, which is Monday after next week.
All fingers crossed.
Makes me glad I did not wait. Been on 5.0.1 for 3 weeks now
I can't wait too, it's making me so frustrated, hope they release it soon...
LOL
How sick Motorola is!
Others do have 5.0.2 and a lot of us still stuck with 4.4.4.
Even the older version of XT1063 does have Lollipop but the new ones.
Beautiful!
Alright, there is a new, hopefully it's a good news.
I don't know when it was happening but this morning, I checked my dad's xt1063 (21.11.13) and bam, there is an update to 22.21.28. I have not updated it yet, will do after work.
Also, I haven't checked my mom's xt1063 (also running 21.11.13) so I don't know the update is only on Dads or both.
Will report later.
As I expect the unexpect, my Dad's is ready to go but my Mom's is still stuck with 21.11.23. LOL
Weird!
Hell, it's ugly.
I wouldn't do it on my Mom's even when update is available.
try this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_q8oTgd1G0s and let us know (read the video comments for updated info)
yeaah

I'm on 5.0.1 Lollipop only because I downloaded the update from XDA and installed using ODIN. It is was a very easy process and does NOT void your warrany as you are not rooting the phone.
Bought my phone from Three last week and it came with 4.4.4.
To many problems with lollipop at the moment I am rolling back to 4.44.

I might try that,I haven't heard of it before though so I'll have to look into it a little bit more. Another question, let's say the official lollipop update comes out. How would I get around downloadin that after I uninstall the unofficial update?
I'm in UK and i recently update to 5.0.1 with odin ... yes, the warranty was NOT void but battery life it's quite poor ... i will wait for official UK 5.0.1 for EE. Untill then i will downgrade to 4.4.4 ...
I'm on BOC3 and find the battery to be excellent. Definately a better build than DBT.

make sure you use the 910F version else you'll risk bricking it. Theres plenty of instructions on here. Very easy.

I think this is the netherlands but works fine on my f unlocked UK.
Has to be said I was disappointed with the initial german release, the contacts app crashing constantly was a real PITA, I rolled back since then and found KK is far more stable.
Think what has been disappointing from Samsung is they are being pretty poor in software roll out planning, it is bad now however I am wondering how it will be after the S6 is launched globally.

It won't be "formatted", you'll have to do the factory reset yourself and since it is an official ROM from Samsung you phone will be eligible for later OTA's

Your internal/external SD cards will not be formatted, and you should still be able to receive OTAs after flashing. There is more information and tutorials on XDA/elsewhere on the internet ☺
I'm on 5.0.1 on BOC3. BOB4 wasn't anything fantastic after the initial hype of it being Lollipop died, but BOC3 was a noticeable upgrade to even BOB4. In my experience anyway. I have an unbranded 910F and flashed the BOC3 via ODIN. I'd highly recommend it!

I'm on O2, so still 4.4.4 at the minute but I've read that 5.0.1 should be out next week according to a veteran member of the O2 forums.

Disappoints me that its taking this long, having swapped from a Nexus 5. Feels like we're jumping through hoops just to get an update that's already outdated.

You recommend BOC3? So how does this fash work? Is it just necessarily an ota update you would get? And is it completely reversible?

No, but considering T-Mobile already sent theirs out, i'm sure it won't be too long before it hits the AT&T variant
It's AT&T. We'll be waiting a while.

If it means the update doesn't "suck" i'm okay with waiting a while longer.
Now, will we have same rooting issue if we're on rooted 5.0 or do yall think it'll be more of a hot-fix than a bootloader update?

Good chance that 5.1.1 will be completely unrootable on locked bootloader devices.

Agreed, however, by that time, it probably won't matter for me. I highly regret taking the 5.0 update before doing root. I'm sick of not having the options I want with this phone and the daily freezes. As a long time AT&T customer with a grandfathered unlimited plan (not that that means anything, they throttle at 5GB, which I swear the FCC said was illegal), I'm about to eat the early termination fee and go to Project Fi with a Nexus 6.

Not likely, it appears the only way to root 5.1 will be a custom rooted kernel which is out of the question for locked bl devices. Seems the end of root access on locked bl devices is not far away.

That's fine IF your already rooted.. @muniz_ri was making the point that phones are coming that are not root able with locked BL.
Take the S6 Active for example, not looking to promising.

Well that is some sad news @muniz_ri. If you say you cannot do your usual magic, then i guess we are all sunk. I always check up on 5.whatever and it said it was out and i was hoping you would be able to modify it and keep the OA1 BL like you usually do....just to try it of course. Stock is not for many of us as you know. I will keep watching though. My installments are not done until 06-2016 and was hoping to maybe get an LG G4, but they dont seem to be having all that much luck with it, but i hear it is now rooted. by then, who knows. not a lot of money here. Thanks for you and others for keeping our device alive. I would never get an S6 or another Samsung I think. Between them and ATT, they are choking many of us. Ok, thanks again for all your hard work. Maybe u will come across something.
Sorry to be creating another Oreo thread but the ones I'm finding either aren't Sprint phones, are closed, or are months old with no replies.
Has anyone on Sprint with a note 8 gotten Oreo yet i heard the roll out would be starting in March.
Also can we expect an update to the Samsung experience version anytime soon?

You do have to Odin back to stock and do the OTA update from the carrier if you want to receive OTA updates
