Not for me, it hasn't. I bought mine from Staples, a single SIM Retail CA XT1064, and I've been waiting since December last year. I keep checking the Motorola forums, but it's useless, Motorola claims they already sent Lollipop out to Canadian Carriers, but I don't believe them anymore.

[Q] How much is te Nexus One?

Hello,
Has anyone bought their Nexus One from the Developer Store? If so, how much did you pay?
I can only find it on Pixmania/Expansys and it's around €520. I don't think it's worth that since the Desire is €419 on Vodafone and they're pretty much the same phone...
Thanks,
Keith
I bought mine in January or Febuary (2009) in the states for $529. I've heard that they are the same price sold as the "developer" version.

You bought the N1 in 2009? I bet a typo.
If you did buy the Dev version, did they give you an option between the AWS version and AT&T version?
Thanks people for your input. I bought a Desire in the end. I'll prob load a stock Android ROM in a few weeks (see what gingerbread offers)

The AT&T version is no longer available from Google.
The developer version is T-Mobile banded.

Dual Sim Version?

Seems I'm the first one to open a Thread for the Moto G 2014. *proud*
Did anyone find a source to get a dual-sim version of the Moto G(2) 2014? Preferably on the European mainland.
I'm thankful for every information I can get!
Cheers,
M

Motorola gave out the dual-SIM version to journalists, including myself, yesterday. Is this not the one being sold on Amazon?
Actually, I find it hard to see anything on Amazon. Not helped by Motorola thinking it could call the new Moto G the Moto G (2nd generation) or Moto G 2014 as people are also calling it.
It makes it quite hard to identify which is which on the website, and no doubt elsewhere.

I don't know what is sold on Amazon? With Amazon I would give it a blind order try but I can't find it on .co.uk nor on .de. Did you find it?
Not yet. Lots of the original 3G model at some rather inflated prices though.
Any chance you can upload 2 or 3 pictures taken with it?

I don't know about the European mainland but you can get it in India from Flipkart.com; sales are starting from tonight at sharp 1200hrs.
Yes, the European version is with dual sim, at least believing on Expansys and Handteck, that already are selling the phone... can't find it on amazon thought..
The only downside there it seems to exist is that there are only a 8GB version
Sorry to tag on this thread, does the 2014 moto G have a multi colour LED notification?
Lots of misleading info out there...anyone know whether the US has a dual SIM version and the bands for the dual SIM versions? The Motorola website as it is now is pretty useless.

Before I ordered mine on friday I asked Motorola Germany via facebook if it has dual sim as i couldn't find any infos on motorola Hompage or the german onlineshop (notebooksbilliger.de - they sold on friday with 32GB microSD for € 199,-). On facebook they told me it has dual sim.

Where did you buy it from rafael ?
I'm planning on getting mine but I'm not sure which seller would ship it quicker. (I was between Walmart and Submarino - These are Brazil only retailers if someone is wondering).
It may be a great phone from what I've been researching.

You can always go to sammobile site to check for latest firmware. As far as I know you can flash different region as long as it is for your model such as n920i. Also u have to understand just because your phone doesn't have any update yet that would mean it is bad. I think it depend on the carrier to release them. As rule of the thumb u don't fix something unless there is an issue.
I believe android 6 update is just around the corner so I think that is why some carriers maybe waiting to release all at once. But I doubt it will come this month because of the holidays coming soon. I would expect them to be released early January.

YES IT DOES! For UN-branded FW, ALL carriers must approve that FW for release!

Because Sammy OS is heavily modded to their linking so it will take time for them to get it all up and running and then testing and then some more testing.

Maybe you haven't check it. Because since November I bought it I had received 3 updates. Last one yesterday.

If this is true, it makes perfect sense.
Not questioning your knowledge or honesty, but can you substantiate this statement, articles, links, 'knowledge base'?
Thanks

carriers release updates to use on THEIR network; it doesnt matter one bit who you bought the phone from..
thats common knowledge in the cellular world.. Google is the only sometimes "exception", but if their phones are sold by any carrier, i.e. when t mobile sold the nexus 6, it was T Mobile who released/approved updates, NOT Google

it does matter.
in Europe, if you don't get your phone through a carrier you get the F model.
while other variants get their updates through the carrier, F models always get their updates directly from Samsung.
until the note 8 the unbranded models(like the F models) where always first to get updates, because no carrier approval is needed.
edit: correction.
there are carrier specific F models, the carrier branding is in the csc in those cases.
any phone bought from Samsung directly or a store that isn't tied to a carrier will always have an "unbranded" csc in Europe.
