Maybe in a year or so we will get Marshmellow, but I doubt 5.1.1 ROM will be released for SGS5 by AT&T...

Yeah 5.1.1 at this point stupid.
6.0 on my nexus 7 2013 has quadrupled the battery life.

I just got off the phone with ATT and they told me T-mobile should be getting the 5.1.1 update soon, and when they do, ATT and verizon should be getting the update a few weeks later, no one said the phone companies are smart....

Hi, Since i see no news about when the Nexus 6 will be released to the public sale, I need to get a phone since a relative is traveling between november 28 and december 6, so this would be my choice, I was wondering if this phone uses stock android, and if it's going to receive fast updates like Moto X, Moto G? I would appreciate your information, thanks!

Probably will, because Moto X and this phone are really similar phones, so don't worry about it.

Thanks for your comment! but this is more like an assumption right? I would not like to buy a phone that will end it up being like a Samsung where updates are not coming after some time :S

Motorola has the Droid Turbo on their list of phones to be updated to Lollipop but there is no ETA yet on when they will happen. Rumor has it that it will be sometime in December but that depends on Motorola/Verizon.
Well it finally happened, I dropped my X. Or more like someone whacked it out of my hands. It's fine, but there's a gouge in the metal frame that's already driving me nuts. So I wanna use my Moto Care to get a new one, but I want to make sure that the one I get will have KK, because it's a pain to downgrade. So, those of you who have recently gotten your Pure Editions- did they come with KK or are they already updated to Lollipop? TIA.
I received my MotoX 2014 pure edition on 2/13. It came with Lollipop. I did use the factory mage from here to downgrade to KitKat.
That's all you had to do was flash the factory image?

I don't need your help, tard. I just thought there were more steps involved... per you, actually. I'll show you the damage next time I see you, it's heartbreaking.

Ordered mine on 2/2 and received it on 2/13. It came with KitKat.
Just turned up as an OTA on mine & has been installed. Can't say I've noticed anything much difference in the phone so far.

I'm just curious as to which build Google is pushing via OTA. Thanks!
There seems to be some slight speed up of the phone but that might be my imagination. Be interested to see if the battery life has increased as promised under this update. Also if they've squashed the last of the restarts it was still getting, though less so since the last update.
@Super Chimp
Can I ask where did you buy yours from? Mine is bought from CPW and no OTA yet

64GB from CPW. Is yours a 32GB model perhaps?
@Super Chimp
Thank you for by your reply . Sadly mine is a 64 GB version bought from CPW as well (beginning of Jan ). So weird that Apple manages to update everyone on the same day but Google can't do that with one phone model

Google allways rolls out in waves to prevent issues to arise for all users, no telling when a OTA will hit what region/country/serial number/Imei.
I have a 64gb version nexus 6 build no LRX22C . I have the update available but it's been waiting to download for over an hour.

Mine said that for ages & then just to changed to requesting for me to download & install, no intermediary stage if you know what I mean.
I am on 5.0 can't even get any update to 5.0.1!! Anyone in the same conditions? I am expecting not to receive the 5.1 update straight away but 5.0.1 has been out for some time and still haven't got it (I bought the n6 two days ago)
I got the message last night, and went through the motions of downloading and installing.
However, my phone is rooted (though otherwise stock) and when it rebooted, it did so into recovery (TWRP). After rebooting, I'm still on 5.0.1 and the 410.4Mb download is nowhere to be seen on the phone. I've again got the "System update available" message today, but I don't want to go round the same loop again.
Anybody know how to get a rooted phone to 5.1?

I haven't paid much attention to the Moto X scene since I got my Nexus 6. What is the current ETA from Moto on the X getting Lollipop?

Thank you. But is this by doing manually check thru phone? Or need to sideload using a computer? Because idk how to do the sideload. Id rather let the OTA from my phone.
Sent from my SM-G950U1 using Tapatalk
If you depend on OTA, you might never get past 7.0. One of my N6 is still on 7.0, the other I applied the OTA file to and it is on 7.1.1 - though I have to keep up with the security updates myself.
My devices are unlocked stock but not rooted. Maybe that is why they never get OTA's anymore.
Try https://www.androidpit.com/nexus-pixel-android-update#installing
It's easy.

Oh really? So the latest OTA thru phone might be the 7.0? The 7.1.1 that you get, that is because you sideload it using the Pc? I am scared to do the sideload coz i might brick the phone thats why i rather let the phone OTA do the thing.

Yes, I sideloaded the OTA file from the Google developers site to get one of my N6 on to 7.1.1
You might not have any problems getting your updates OTA, so just wait and see. Good luck.

Use a toolkit and why not root? Can have stock root and custom kernel. Pretty hard to brick a phone.

Here's the toolkit I use but there's other ones too.

Download toolkit on your computer and plug your phone into it. Make a backup so you can fall back on that if you mess something up but its pretty basic.

I wouldn't. It may work fine on a clean flash but it won't last you long after that. Might be a couple weeks, might be a couple months. It just can't keep up with a newer phone. Also, how come you're looking for a Nexus 6 when your signature says you're using a Galaxy S8? Not trying to bash your decision to switch to an older, less-capable phone, but I'm curious why you'd downgrade.

I think it still ok with a daily basic task, like calling texting, some browsing and waze? Thats all i need for a phone. I got 3 nexus 6, 1 gave to my dad, 1 to my mom which is now broken, and moto charged me 175 to replaced another n6 which i am gonna use when it come. And 1 n6 i used before then sold it for n6p. Then sold the 6p, bought s7edge, sold it and now bought 3 s8. 1 mom tmobile, 1 wife tmobile, 1 for me unlocked version. Planning to return my s8 or sell it again and use the older n6 when it arrives. Idk but i really like smoothness of the pure android and monthly updates. Which i am aware n6 wont get anymore. Which is fine. S8 is good phone smoother than previous touchwiz. But still got some laggy comparr to nexus. I think i am still good for another couple of years with the basic tasks for the n6. Hopefully.

I mean I guess it'll be ok just for basic stuff, but even touchwiz on newer phones blows the Nexus 6 out of the water. If it were unlocked and cheap enough I'd make you an offer on your S8 but I'm perfectly happy with my Note 5, haha. Good luck.

I see. I mean I can't really offer anything more than I paid for my Note 5 which was $160 or something, so no way I can afford that lol.

If he wants to have to latest, up to date model, he might be interested in the latest Samsung Note 7!
