The much anticipated LG G2 Android 5.0 Lollipop update is finally here and slowly arriving for more and more owners, but the Android 5.0 Lollipop update is also causing problems for many. The update initially started outside of the US for unlocked devices, and then earlier this month the LG G2 in the US finally received Android 5.0 Lollipop, starting with Verizon.
The LG G2 was LG’s first smartphone with buttons on the back from LG, and it was rather popular when it arrived in late 2013 to take on the Galaxy S4 and other smartphones in its class. And while we’ve been busy talking about the LG G3, or even the lightly rumored LG G4, there are still millions of LG G2 owners waiting for updates.
Back in August last year LG confirmed the G2 would see Android 5.0 Lollipop, and in December it rolled out in Korea and a few other regions. We’ve seen a few LG G3 Android 5.0 updates arrive as well, and now owners with the popular LG G2 are getting the same update. We saw a few bugs when the device received Android 4.4 KitKat, and some with the Lollipop update are frustrated with problems as well.
The LG G2 was released in September of 2013 and a few months later Google released Android 4.4 KitKat. The update took a long time to arrive, and eventually caused a lot of problems for LG G2 owners. It was plagued with little issues that slowly have been fixed, but many are still anxiously awaiting Android 5.0 to deliver new features, an improved look, and to fix some of the bugs introduced with Android 4.4.4 KitKat.
Last week Verizon announced and confirmed the LG G2 Android 5.0 update is now rolling out, and users have been receiving it all week, not to mention others around the globe. That, and T-Mobile is in the final testing phase and could start rolling it out any day now. And while the Verizon announcement had a lot of details and a changelog full of what’s new, it didn’t mention a few surprises in the form of bugs or issues that many owners are complaining about.
