Download LG G3 V10l-IND-XX Update (Lag Fix & Improved Battery Life)

The LG G3 has been a smartphone with a lot of mixed reviews. Many people say that it is the best device they have ever bought and some say it is not worth buying it because it is not as good as the company claims.

Both are right. From one perspective, the LG G3 is an excellent device because it has the Snapdragon 801 chipset clocked at 2.5 GHz, 13 MP rear camera which can record 2160p 4K videos, beautiful 5.5 inch QHD display protected by Gorilla Glass 3, 3 GB RAM and a decent 3,000 mAh battery.

As every other phone, the LG G3 also has its problems. Even though the display is high-resolution, text doesn’t look good because of the sharpening software feature that LG G3 has implemented. The battery life is not great either even though it is 3,000 mAh.

Another big problem that LG G3 users keep reporting is performance issue. Users keep saying that their LG G3 phones keep freezing, lagging and apps force close very often. According to them, this is making the user experience bad because an expensive and high-end device like the LG G3 shouldn’t have these kind of problems.

LG has done its best to optimize the LG G3 software. There is no significant bloatware and 3 GB of RAM keep everything smooth. However, this hasn’t prevented lag from occurring. The problem is that it occurs often and many people keep complaining everyday.

Looks like LG has listened to its users and has released an update which is supposed to fix two things:

1. Fix lag problem and make everything smoother
2. Improve battery life

LG is seeding an update for all LG G3 units which is around 174 MB big in size. The update software version is V10l-IND-XX while the old update had V10j-IND-XX software version. According to the first users that have installed the new update, the UI is much faster, there is no lag and the battery is a huge improvement.

• Android Version: 4.4.2
