          Summer, I think they should roll out the buggy one they are testing in Korea and give us another update as scheduled. I'm sure most of us won't mind buggy 4.4.2 since we already using it in from our custom developers. Thanks to them I may add.

                alex, 26 Mar 2014Great :D then how about LG 4x hd....Well, you may consider upgrade to a new phone. Because it will be more practical than waiting the Kitkat for 4x hd.

                      I think that the KitKat, 4.4.2 update already will be late, only in the Summer. First in Korea, next Japan, USA and Canada. Being like that, only in the end of the Summer is that the international version will receive the update. No, it's very late. Because the 4.5 update will come out, at the latest in June and the international LG Optimus G will receive the update 6 months after the LG G2 and 9 months after the Google own release. What Lg have doing all this time since the
                      4.1.2 update started in January of 2013 in Korea? Already there are 14 months and for turn the things worse, possibly more 5 months or more of waiting for the update for the international version. About 20 months after the initial release of the Jelly Bean update for the LG Optimus G in South Korea. LG you have
                      working badly in the LG Optimus G support.

                              Already switched to CM 11. But would love to see stock KitKat running on the device. Sadly they took too long to update it. Switching to a new phone in summer. But still good news.

                                        Well I am pleased if we get it of course. It is however too little, too late for them. It's been stuck on 4.1 for a year now, so the Optimus G will be my first, only and last ever LG phone.
