You can accept what I say or disregard it, it really doesn't matter to me. I held a position where it was my responsibility to work with the new and upcoming software and making sure it was pushed to new devices. That is all I am going to say about it. Again, for all I care, you can disregard it.
Verizon can absolutely push this software out, they are choosing not to. They have new and more capable devices, running newer versions of Android and at this point in the game, care more about making sure those are updated. My LG phone was just updated from Android 10 -> 11. Dont let them tell you they are incapable of making sure your older phone is able to run an older version of Android. Its a load of garbage. You will NOT see Android 10 for the LG Thinq G7, sadly.
It is more profitable and makes more sense for them to have you get a new phone and pay a monthly fee for the upgrade, thereby keeping you as a customer, then it is for them to keep pushing out the latest and greatest software to an old device. Loyalty only runs as a one way street in their minds. You being loyal to them.
I have appreciated my time as a Verizon customer because my phone works where I need it. All that credit goes to the hardworking cell site engineers and IT personal, not the people who run this company, they are deceitful. The time has come though, Verizon doesn't have 'the best' network anymore. In this day and age, where WIFI abounds and every cell phone company has plenty of towers, one can get great service, unlimited data, and amazing handsets plenty of other places, I am leaving Verizon and moving on!
Take care!
