As centipedes said, it has *not* started yet. Invites were sent out, but the actual OTA has not gone out to testers.

Awesome right?
But why hasn't soak test started yet then! This month has like 3 weeks to go!

Soak Test shouldn't be more than a week, so we can expect it by the end of Dec!

That I understand, the thing is the at&t soak has 4.1.1 and a different version... I'd be nice to know the specifics.
The update is carrier specific, not network specific.
Things get even more interesting as the Razr Hd at&t is also 4.1.2.

To me, its kind of strange that AT&T pushed the Bell update to my phone. I'm guessing what happened is that AT&T told me I have an update, and then they connected me to the Motorola servers, who saw that my phone is a Bell AHD and sent me that update.
Good news for Bell AHD owners, the camera app is updated. HDR is now included (the new icon is pretty ugly though).

Okay so I may be a little late to the party on this, but I've never seen anything about this. With the new update, there is a quick settings menu. At the home screen, swipe the home screen to the right (so go to the screen to the left of home), it is now a quick settings screen.

It's not a settings screen. It is a screen that is to the left of the home screen. That background is just the wallpaper I have set up.

Which will we get: JB or $100?

http://androinica.com/2012/09/motor...ers/?utm_medium=referral&utm_source=pulsenews
The most interesting part of this for me was the upgrade promise... "If your device cannot be updated because it degrades the user's experience, Motorola will give you $100 to purchase one of their newer devices"...
Which do you think we'll get?
I chose the red pill... Now I'm in the mAtrix and I know Kung Fu... in HD!

This phone will get JB.
It's up to AT&T, for me at least, to release it promptly.

Any way to get this update on the unlocked Atrix HD? When I try to initiate update it prompts me to create Motorola account and then just hand when "trying to connect to server". I am using this phone on T-mobile.

See: ATRIX HD kernel changer in original Android development section... it's for AT&T phones, so no promises it won't screw something up, although it shouldn't.
EDIT: After a second look, it looks like it will only update the kernel, but not the system. :/

Nice! Hopefully the soak will go out to everyone else in a few days as it did back when the Atrix 2 got its own bug fix update within 3 days of the soak test having started.
No real issues were reported so I'm sure itll roll our soon enough.

Soak tests are kind of a test phase for updates that may (or may not, depending on bug reports) be sent out OTA for everyone else. A few (hundred) people sign up to get the pre-release, and report bugs if any. If very few, or no bugs are reported, the software update is pushed to all users of the device.

Soak tests are pre release tests of future official software updates.
Sent from my MB886 using xda premium
Soak tests often end up being the final release that goes out over the air, so I like to think of them as release candidate testing.
The current update soak is limited to specific IMEI numbers for people who signed up and were selected to test and provide feedback to Motorola.
Is it still possible to sign up to be a tester? I somehow got into the samsung dev channel when I was researching phones but that doesn't do me any good now...
Also I would bet we see Jellybean before most other phones, but as it's focused more twards tablets it might be a while. Still nice to see updates coming via the soaks though so maybe they are more on the ball than most so maybe this year. But then again AT&T has to have their hand in it too...
I'm sure well get JB. Problem is I'm sure we wouldn't see it for at least a year or so....
I'm for one hoping you guys get jellybean but wouldn't hold your breath with anything Motorola says after what they did to us og Atrix users. Just wrong.

From what I am hearing, the OG Atrix has issues with the specific NVidia chipset. NVidia is not providing ICS compatible drivers. (hence when there are issues with ICS/JB even with the Cyanogenmod build for OG Atrix)

I'd find that suspect as the Motorola Xoom uses the same Tegra2 chipset as the original Atrix.

That actually isn't true. The Atrix used the AP20H variant while the Xoom used T20. Different types of Tegra 2.

[Q] When will there be an update for Bell Atrix HD?

Anyone using a Bell Atrix HD noticed an update yet? I bought mine on ebay unlocked and it is currently on 77.55.17.
Also, has anyone using the Bell Atrix been able to show what has been using the battery? I only get the amount of time that has passed since the last charge.
One more, can I still get an update even though I'm not using the Bell Canada service?
Thanks! This thing needs the update because the camera sucks
I'm using a Bell model on Telus. Same build number as well. I haven't figured out how to change the battery stats either.
Hopefully we well get an update soon.

I don't know anything about that, but with the bootloader locked down, we are at Bells mercy, unfortunately.
I'm hoping for something soon as my battery life is extremely inconsistent. Okay one day and terrible the next.

I have been pestering at&t customer service about it as frequently as I can. Maybe once a week.
The chat guys are really nice but they admit they dont know anything about the update. They admit it has been released over 3 months ago (by samsung to at&t) and that they have to sanction it first. They also say "i dont konw, might be never".
I got a chat guy for AT&T to admit that 4.4.2 for S4 was released 2/26/2014
So if it was this recently, note 3's update is probably coming soon.

The title really should be changed.
1: it is misleading and makes people think it has been released
2: it has not been released so this "discussion" is exactly the same as the rest all over the forums.
3: it is a question in the OP asking for an ETA. Not really allowed and nothing has been said or heard on when it comes out. It gets released when it gets released. And since it is a question, it belongs in the QA section.

She got kitkat. We haven't yet. On her phone the entire system has to be bone stock to update. At least that's what I'd do just to be sure. Make sure she has a good wifi connection.

if at&t follows their usual update patterns, i expect it will be released in late april or early may (when the s5 is coming out). im assuming they're just waiting for the s5 to come out before releasing kitkat so people will buy the s5 instead of the s4 since it will be their only kitkat phone. just an educated guess

I'll believe it when the update hits my phone.
Doesn't matter to me. I just want to know what difference will it really make? Is this an update just to keep the users happy and make them feel like HTC got their back?
I'm not knocking them or anything, because I certainly don't see myself choosing another manufacturer any time soon...but why claim that 4.4.4 changes were baked into 4.4.3, then give it to use anyway?
5.0 is more worth the wait than that 4.4.4

Exactly,
Everyone its the firmware we need and also i can only speak for myself but i want a new radio too! the int rom is nice to have those new features but without the updated firmware and radios it really makes it not worth it.
I am sure the OTA will be here any day now. Fingers crossed
