LG G3 Android 5.0 Lollipop Update Reaches More US Users

In February, the LG G3 Android 5.0 Lollipop update finally began rolling out to multiple carriers in the United States after rolling out in other regions around the world, and today a US carrier is rolling out the latest software. Earlier this week we saw the LG G2 getting Android 5.0 on Verizon and now today the T-Mobile LG G3 Android 5.0 update is kind of ready.

Those who own the LG G3 at AT&T and Sprint already have the latest software and Verizon launched it, but then quickly delayed the release and is still inactive. The last major carrier is T-Mobile and as of yesterday the update is available through their online tool to download and install.

LG has promised to deliver the Android 5.0 Lollipop update within 90 days, not in the US, but for owners it comes together. It hit Korea, India, Poland and parts of Europe in December, then parts of the US in February. And now, if you want to do it manually rather than accepting an over-the-air update, this rollout continues as we’ve received confirmation that the T-Mobile LG G3 Android 5.0 update is ready.

Last year, LG announced its brand new flagship G3 smartphone in May. Top-of-the-line specs offer one of the best overall devices of 2014, with an impressive 5.5-inch Quad-HD display like the Nexus 6 and ultra-small bezels that deliver a big screen in a small package. Those waiting for the Android 5.0 Lollipop update will be happy to know that the rollout went smoothly and is now reaching even more users.

Updates usually come as over-the-air (OTA) software updates. A notification prompts the user to download and install the update on their device, and the whole process usually takes less than 5-10 minutes. However, the T-Mobile G3 has yet to see OTA, but the latest software is available for those who want to do it manually.

We’ve seen this before, but users who don’t want to wait for T-Mobile to ship the G3 Android 5.0 Lollipop update can download and install it manually using LG’s software. software update tool.

All users have to do is download the LG software update tool linked above, connect their LG G3 to the computer and enable USB Debugging in settings and the app will do the rest. It will check which Android version you are running, reboot into recovery and install the latest Android 5.0.1 Lollipop on your T-Mobile LG G3.

This won’t delete any data or information, but it’s always a good idea to back up all important documents, photos, videos and more before proceeding as you never know what to expect and sometimes things can go wrong. However, we haven’t heard of any problems. If you choose to wait, an over-the-air update could start rolling out at any moment. Probably later today.

The LG G3 update will give the Android operating system a new look and feel. With Android 5.0 Lollipop, users get more features, an improved notification tray and lock screen, smooth animations and effects, improved battery life (for some), and a vibrant operating system.

So far we have heard from AT&T, Sprint and most of the LG G3 owners around the world enjoying the update, there are also many users who are fed up with the problems after LG G3 Android 5.0 update, so users need to proceed with caution.

For now, we don’t have any details about the LG G3 Android 5.0 Lollipop update for T-Mobile or whether the carrier has changed anything additional, but they did release some details about the upgrade when Sprint went live last month. Here is the change log:

Most likely, all the changes and information detailed above will be the same for the T-Mobile LG G3, but we can’t say for sure. T-Mobile has yet to officially announce the LG G3 Android 5.0 update, but as it’s now available, we should hear more soon and see it officially roll out.

Users will be able to enjoy tons of new features, improved looks, Wi-Fi calling and VoLTE (HD Voice) calling and more as part of the software update. Give it a try today or wait for it to come automatically. The choice is yours.
