i know that there is not gonna be 5.1.1 version for G2 but for Marshmallow i'm not sure since i haven't found any valid source of news.
are u sure about Marshmallow ?
no 5.1.1 for G2, no marshmallow.... no unlockedbootloader for G4.. G4 bootloop issues LG admits to fix.. but not if bootloader unlocked.. this i hardware problem not software. only few G4's can be rooted and have twrp.. and those that cant . have bootloop issues as well.. so basically what that tell you... LG sucks at somethings.. good phones but they suck..at seeing problems.. i think no phone should be on 5.02..

so what i got from ur saying is that in addition to the fact the we are not gonna have marshmallow version, we also not gonna a ported marshmallow version from G4? right ?

LG is a big pendejo cellphone maker

IF they was more inteligent they will make alliance with the XDA developers community
but they have a cocky attitude about the bootloader thing
and they blame the Big carriers about it
basically they wash their hands off

Thing is they make good bang for the bucks phones
I like the G2 a lot price/performance ratio wise

In the other hand
Huwawei is very good at making friends in the cell market with the developers
The latest NEXUS cell is made by them and is fully open

Samsung is not my cup of tea

and the top chinese manufacturers are not fully implementing the US GSM LTE bands...
when MEIZU , XIAMOI or LETV make something really compatible i will look to jump in to one

for now...
G2 it is

apparently people has said it lots of times. only way to get MM is to use aosp or cm.
it cant be ported apparently. they can port G3-G4 apps if we had MM. untill then no port. apparently itt cant be done..
we eould have a MM rom long time ago.. ;)

Actually G4's bootloader can be unlocked. But not for all variants.
