Question of Marshmallow for the LG G Flex 2

[Brent Church]

As far as I can tell many sites have confirmed Marshmallow will be coming to the Flex 2. If so, is there a particular place that really tracks this other than Android Central? I'm a new Android user and after coming from Windows Phone the app selection is quite insane.

Really looking forward to the Doze feature and just being up to date in general.

Thanks

Update: Called LG directly and they of course did not have any information regarding the update. Since the G3 update was announced I have a bit more faith they are getting to the older devices and non-flagship.

Ask LG Keep the pressure high, there are a lot of ppl out there Flexing since it's a very affordable flagship

I asked LG Europe / Germany and they answered that they didn't knew yet.

Would flashing to 5.1.1 PR make my phone more or less likely to get MM?

I understand PR goes direct to LG for updates - but not sure if LG also likes to detect a Puerto Rico location to go along with that.

 

[Brent Church]

My guess it that it would not geolocate you, but... would it know if you were not on a PR network? It may not care that the Wifi you connect to for an update is not in PR. What we need though is someone, anywhere, to get an update, than at least you know it's in the work for other carriers.

Well, I've not heard a great deal more about marshmallow for the Flex 2, but other LG releases are coming, along with other vendors, so I think if it is to happen it will be somewhat soon.

I can't see lg abandon a flagship device less than a year old. It'll get mm.

Emailed the customer service.. They said that the update will definitely be made available as soon as possible

That's good to know at least. I emailed them as well just to get my own answer.

@BrenchChurch
Did u get an answer?

Update : sorry didn't c ur update

 

[Brent Church]

They did not answer my support email and the live chat wait was too long.

 

[joshuabruegge]

That's weird... I never had any waiting times in live chat...

Very sad if such a nice phone doesn't get MM

There is still no better formfactor on the market. And it's very strong, dropped it so many times

So true *-*

I think if MM is rolling out the Flex 2 is selling out quickly.

I think I pick up a second one for 229€ just in case.
Even when it doesn't get MM, it's very fast on Lollipop powered by it's SD810.

Got an update from AT&T this morning, but still 5.1.1, but perhaps a prep. First time I've seen an update from them for this phone. Maybe close.

I have no update but if it's a prep update, it could get interesting )

[Brent Church]

I was wondering if they do small updates before large ones.

 

[huungryshark]

Wow bring it on LG, roll it out

Android MM powered by the SD810 and the best formfactor for below 250$

Well, no new news really, thought AT&T just updated the LG G3, so some updates are moving along.I can't get a feel for how close they may be, if at all.

I really don't get the lack of information about these updates from either the carriers or LG.
