LG has Dropped the LG G3, G4, G4 Stylus, CK, and Stylo from Monthly Security Update List
LG has confirmed the LG G3, LG G4, G4 Stylus, CK and the LG G Stylo will no longer receive monthly security updates from them.
Every month Google will gather up all of the Android security fixes for AOSP and make them available so that OEMs can implement them in their ROMs. These go out a month in advance so that all of the companies have enough time to implement them before they are disclosed to the public. Companies like LG and Samsung add in so many features to their OEM ROMs that they sometimes introduce their own bugs and security holes into the software they're pushing out to their devices, prompting them to release specialized patches too.
