We find that similar phones do get the updates at different times. ...

Usually firmwares are on a staggered rollout so servers etc don't crash.

Amy phones that can accept certain firmwares will get it.

keep checking your software update setting.

We need to know which phone you have, what firmware and what network lock etc to be able to answer that.

The updates will roll out in batches. Given the millions of G3 devices out there it would cause system melt down to release all at the same time.

Is yours a sim free version or locked to a network?

Is your daughters a sim free version or locked to a network?

What people are getting to is. SIM free phones generally get the updates first as network locked phones are updated with firmware that is tested (read bloated) by the network before release

I've got an O2 locked/branded LG G3 and mine hasn't updated as of yet.

Has O2 released the updated branded firmware to the LG G3 as of yet?

I know that the rollouts normally go in batches however getting Android 5 is something that i'm looking forward to mostly to allow my apps access to the external SD card again (File browsers etc) and start using my phone how I want to and not how google think I should.

Hi I think @Chris_K  is the man to answer this?

[collis2k3]

Turns out I can answer my own question.

My LG G3 received the update this morning, after a 520MB download (use wifi) my phone is currently performing the post upgrade process.

Let us know what you think. I think Lollipop is a vast improvement on KK.
