Some people will be giving thanks today after it was reported that the Android 5.0 Lollipop OTA update for the LG G Pad 8.3 GPe has started rolling out to some devices. This makes the LG G Pad 8.3 GPe the first Google Play edition device to be updated over-the-air to Android 5.0, which does make sense given it doesn’t have to contend with any issues related to calls like its smartphone compatriots have to.
If you haven’t got the OTA update yet, some folks over at XDA have captured the file already if you want to have a go flashing it yourself, but you will need stock recovery to do this – custom recovery will interfere with the installation. Of course, be warned that you may see some teething issues as all the devices that have Android Lollipop appear to be suffering from some software-related ailment in one way or another.
Let us know in the comments if you try out the Android 5.0 Lollipop OTA update for the LG G Pad 8.3 GPe.
