    Before you start reading, allow me to admit that it's gonna be a little long read. But in order to make everything understandable I had to do that.

    Please hold your patience. I beg for it



    Ok, here we go ------
    I have been using a LG Optimus G Pro F240L since past 1 and half years.

    About the Phone

    Phone Type: Rooted and unlocked. I want to upgrade it from Jellybean (4.1.2) to official Lollipop Firmware by LG
    My Location: India
    GSM network being used: Vodafone India

    All other detailed specifications are given in the following screenshots

    But before any further action, there are some questions keeping me worried.

    If I upgrade it to Lollipop OTA Firmware

    (1) will it wipe the phone's "unlocked" state leaving it unusable to GSM operator service?

    (2) As far as I know official Lollipop update for LG Optimus G Pro F240 is released in Korea only. So, if I update it with Korean Firmware will the phone remain

    usable in India? (considering it's base band will get changed to Korean base bands I guess)

    (3) Will it be in Korean language only? I don't know any foreign language except English

    (4) Will this attempt to update (in authentic way. I don't want to risk it with any custom ROM version) leave the phone soft bricked?

    (5) If everything goes well, will there be any improvement in battery life? There are lot of fuss about battery life improvement in Lollipop. Also, I need to make sure

    that phone will not be laggy.

    (6) Finally... is it ok if I download the official set up file to my computer and then update? Can you post me a link to download the file?

    I am happy that you have read it far to the end
    Please guide me through the issue.
    A whole lot of thanks that you gave it some of your precious time
