Lollipop Begins Rolling Out to the LG G2 in South Korea
What happened
LG started pushing the Lollipop update to the G2 in South Korea. A regional start like this is common for manufacturers, since the update is tested and released market by market. Other countries, including Canada, usually follow later, and carriers often add their own approval stage.
LG’s update record
The writer of the original post was positive about LG’s recent progress. The G2 and G3 were called excellent phones, and the software team had been releasing updates at a good pace. The writer still did not like LG’s interface, though a good launcher could ease that.
What Canadians could expect
- No date was given for the G2 or G3 in Canada.
- The Korean rollout suggested the update was real and in progress.
- Updates in Canada typically depend on both LG and the wireless carrier.
Status today
Lollipop is a very old version of Android and the G2 is no longer supported. This article is a record of the rollout.
