I've got the final leaked version of Android 5.0 for the LG G3 with an LRX21P build number but now seeing that the official Android 5.0 from Poland has launched with an LRX21M build nunber makes me a bit confused. Are there any sugnificant changes between the two and should I keep the leaked version of upgrade/downgrade to the official version?

Android 4.4 KitKat Update is Coming to Ascend P6
Most of you might know that Google has released the latest version of Android called Android 4.4 “Kitkat” just a few days ago. Android 4.4 brings optimizations to the current Android 4.3 jellybean and sources claim Android 4.4 is much faster than the Android 4.3. Android 4.4 also includes a replacement for the current dalvik virtual machine called “Android ART” (Android RunTime). This new feature said to improve application responsiveness by 100%.
So getting back to the topic, Huawei Device, chairman “Yu Chengdong” mentioned that they are working to bring Android 4.4 Kitkat update to the Ascend P6 by the end of January next year. Information about this were posted on Sina Weibo and Baidu forums.
According this information it looks like Huawei won’t bother with Android 4.3 and they will provide Android 4.4 firmware update with Emotion UI 2.0. Huawei hasn’t mentioned about their plans for the other devices yet. But when thinking about current situation on Huawei firmware updates its really unlikely that the other Huawei smartphones will ever get Android 4.4. And its worth noting that if Ascend P6 gets Android 4.4 update, initially it will be only for the Chinese version of the phone. International update can take few months more.

I have a Huawei Ascend P6 purchased from China with the following specs:
Model: P6-U06
Android Version: 4.2.2
Emotion UI version : 1.6
Build Number: P6-U06V100R001C17B117SP01
Is it possible to flash the international ROM on this device? I have seen a few guides for updating via local update but they all require a different build than the one I'm running now. Also which is the latest stable build for the international ROM? Is B510 stable or beta?
So I got my p6 not long ago, and i figured that the android version is still 4.2.2 jelly bean. The EMUI is also 1.6 still with firmware B116.
I want to know which one is best to update first as I am still quite new to the whole android system.
Which one should I update first to prevent issues on my phone?: the android version to kitkat or the EMUI?
Also, does updating the android version change the firmware?

Updating the android does upgrade the emui and changes the firmware too. Strarting from B10x to B132 firmwares are running android jellybean 4.2.2 with emui version 1.6, from B506 to B508x are firmwares with android kitkat 4.4.2 and emui 2.0 (but these are Chinese ones), from B510 to B521 are kitkats with emui 2.3 (international ones) and from B704 and above are kitkats with emui 3.0 (both chinese and international can be found).

About a month or two when the official update for the Ascend P6 became available, I installed it and upgraded my phone to Android 4.4.2 (from 4.2) and Emui to 2.3 (from 1.x). Anyway, I've been having issues with that as it started to overheat and work slow, so I decided to revert back to the original state. (Unless there are fixes for the overheating in your experience?)
How do I do that? I found a topic here about reverting to Android 4.2, but I'm not sure which version my phone used to have... Anyway, here's my phone information if someone could shed some light:
Huawei P6-U06
Android 4.4.2
Emotion UI 2.3
Baseband version IMC1202_PENTA
Kernel version 3.0.8-00800-g4e7741b
Build number P6-U06V100R001C150B536
Custom version CUSTHRVC150D536
Thanks in advance.

does anybody know if there's any official planned upgrade to 5.0.1 (or higher from) SamMobile?
Nope. 4.4.2 is the latest android version, 4.4.4 is the latest for the plus (Value Edition-VE) version, the i919xl
