The version numbers may be correct, but they are not official.  I'm doubting anyone really got the G3 update considering the old version numbers are still listed on Verizon's update site.  they generally update that site pretty quick and make announcements on the News page.Advanced Devices Software Updates | Verizon Wireless

The "update" is to 5.0 not 5.1

By the way VZW, the 5.1 update has been out March 9, 2015.

No Thanks.

That lollipop update starting bugging me a few hours ago.

It wants to be in my phone. I'm still resisting, but it's coming at me with `reasons' as to why i should install it.

Looks like everyone was right except for you. It's out today officially. Unfortunately there is one big wifi syncing bug that came along with it.

I plugged my phone into the computer and used the VZ Software updater (which no one told me existed) and the phone is currently updating to Lollipop! I am glad this issue is resolved...without the help of any Verizon techs who told me to do a factory reset on the phone.

I just got the pop-up notification about 10 minutes ago asking if I wanted to upgrade.  I'll do it later after I backup, get a list of the current apps I am using, then do a factory reset.

Don't upgrade.  It's a trap!!!  Lollipop has issues

I upgraded my wife's phone to LG G3 VS985 this week and Lollipop came rolling in  the night I was switching over. So I brought it into my own LG G3 as well. So far, no problems. No excessive battery drain. If anything, my phone is working a little faster.

Lollipop works well, but my notifications (non-SMS/MMS) are wonky.  When on WiFi, they come in whenever they feel like it.  If I haven't had any notifications in a while, I can turn off WiFi and my phone blows up with numerous notifications. 

Otherwise, Lollipop works great.
