Rs988 nougat 7.0 update.

[Samsoldier]

But the locked versions have recieved the update long time back. Unlocked versions should recieve the update earlier right?wierd

 

[Alan Morford]

Not the BlackBerrys.

I think it is time to start pushing the issuer again, politely at first, then war!!

 

[Samsoldier]

We should target all their lg g6 posts on fb. Lets flood the comments section with our complaints.

 

[Samsoldier]

How is it possible that the locked versions of lg g5 get the update before the locked version. We need an android authority or some famous website to write an article about the neglected rs988 users

Would like to see this update just out of principle. But definitely done with LG, they didn't get an allocation of the newest snapdragon so the g6 is going to be inferior in addition to the poor support they're providing and questionable build quality/engineering

I seen them blasting facebook with posts about the newG6. I posted several comments about no nougat 7.0 on the rs988. LG only was repling to comments about how people loved or wanted a G6.

They sent me the same response. So apparently if accurate it will have taken them close to 3 times what it did to bring the update to the g5 in the first place

We shall see. It's nice to have it in writing.

I feel like i have a verizon branded phone again, o wait, they got there update 3 months ago, takes then 5 to 6 months to update the same phone with minor changes. And with the loss of modularity, i think they will have another looser

Well since they'll be waiting so long to bring the nougat update to the RS988 model G5, they might aswell just released the 7.1.1 version of nougat, it's only fair.

 

[Andrew1930]

It's only fair that since LG will be taking so long to release the nougat update to the G5 RS988 US unlocked model, that they release the 7.1.1 version of nougat.

Lg g6 doesn't have ir blaster and removable battery..things that made them unique

 

[Eric Michels]

They say they will put out the update early May, and ya, they have lost me as a customer forever and i truly believe they will be forced to leave the market soon, they have nothing that makes them unique, i will Likely get the pixie2 when i comes out, because if they will not have the physical features i want, i at least one my updates quick

They massively ****ed up on the g6 it looks. I get that Samsung had a massive chip order, but how can they justify using the snapdragon 821 as a supply issue when Sony and Nokia both have phones launching with the 835? And we haven't heard about this year's launches from Moto, htc, or any of the Chinese brands wanting to flagship kill

 

[Eric Michels]

At least with the g4 their was a issuer with the top chip 815 i believe had over heating issues, this is just **** reasons
