[creed10]

Does anybody have any reliable in on if and or when we are getting this update?

all we know is that it's some time this summer. give it like a month or something. keeping my fingers crossed

 

[sortoh85]

With the announcement of Android L, I wonder if that will take some developers from working on our device

LG Android Kitkat 4.4 & 4.4.2 Update Schedule, ETA, Features


btw Q3 started on July 1st, so we should be expecting KK under 90 days. Q3 ends on the last day of September. Kind of a bummer, wanted it now so i could start working on SimplicityXL 3.0.0 since i have nothing better to do for the next 2 months. starting September 1st im back in classes for college so SimplicityXL 3.0.0 will take a long while before release, at least thats what im assuming, if my schedule isnt too congested then i'll work on as fast as i can.

Thanks Chev.

Any new updates? Have other LG phones gotten the update yet. (Besides the ones that are obviously going to get it)

 

[monticello]

Anyone think we will get kit Kat?

 

[creed10]

Anyone think we will get kit Kat?

I don't even know anymore. it's up to LG

 

[un1ocked]

Anyone think we will get kit Kat?

i'm afraid it is no kitkat for us
forget this crippled cdma optimus f7

 

[sortoh85]

Like I started before... It's all marketing on lg's part they will wait till the very least minute so they can say it's new and improved with out doing to much for the holidays

 

[Blue Magic]

You may be right. I'll be happy if they do decide to update the F-phones. If not we can always put a Rom

Like i said the first time, Doubt it. LG has release a lot of boost phones since the F7 was released, and they are all running KitKat with their fancy knock code software. Our sister phone in Korea was updated in April dude, APRIL let that sink in for a sec. They're not doing it as a marketing strategy, they do it whenever they get to it. I saw a Leaked schedule a few months back and the F Lineup of phone were in the list for 3rd quarter.
The 3rd Quarter started Last month and will end on the 30th next month. The International F6 was updated to KK last month, so that OTA was right on time with the ETA for 3rd Quarter. No holiday is near in sight, when does LG even advertise any of the F lineup? The first and last time i saw LG advertised any of the F lineup was at the MWC conference when they first revealed the phone. LG only cares about one phone and one phone only, can you take a guess at what phone that is? Cause it sure as hell ain't a mid range device on a prepaid network my friend.


If none of the USA F line up of phones get KK at the very latest September 30th, were not getting KK at all. By now we should all knew LG were a**hole's when released this phone with a major defect in GPS and refused to help with it. I'm surprised we all had faith in them including me, for a KK OTA when they wouldn't even fix the one issue that was wrong with this device. Save your money and avoid LG, unless its their flagship device, which by the has no development, roms or kernel because of the locked bootloader. So if you need to root and take full control of your device, go to some other manufacturer. Such as Moto or HTC.

Chev I'm getting a moto or Sony phone next. I would get a nexus but the lack of micro SD card puts me off. I might even get a moto g 4glte. Specs similar to the f7 but with a quad core processor. And likely more support. I enjoyed the f7 as my first smart phone. Plus your ROM made things a lot better. Thanks.

Which screen do you think is better? Moto g or f7?

 

[creed10]

Which screen do you think is better? Moto g or f7?

the F7 has a better screen by far. the moto g has an hdpi screen, and the f7 has an xhdpi screen. the resolution and depth of the colors is FAR superior than moto g

But doesn't the moto g have more ppi than the f7? And are both super IPS LCD?

I don't know about all that, but as far as what you can see, the F7 has a much looking better display
