Lollipop update for PE

Just got my PE MX today. I'm with AT&T, but About lists the system version and baseband as victara_tmo. So who's update schedule am I on -- AT&T, TMO, or Moto's -- because it's showing no update available.

It will come from Motorola. Supposedly they are rolling out, but I think the soak test may still be live too, depending on which forum posts you believe. If you don't have 5.0 in the next week, then I would start looking for answers.
I wouldn't even worry. 5.0 is too bug ridden at the moment (bad battery, broken Bluetooth, sluggish performance) went right back to 4.4.4.

Won't update

I bought Nexus 6 from T-Mobile and it won't show update 5.0.1 or 5.1 my build is LRX210 android 5.0. How can I safely update this? I've called T-Mobile, Google, and Motorola but no one has answers.

You actually called Google and Motorola <shakes head>
Sent from my Google N6 on VZ
I have the same issue: will not ota from 5.0 to 5.01.
Yes, I know it can be manually loaded, but I'd like to know why it's not updating to 5.01 on its own.
Try removing your Sim card and rebooting. Let it sit and see if update arrives.
no update
I have a nexus 6 64gd that I brought from Motorola and activated on Verizon in January. It have 5.01. Now that Verizon has the phone unable to update to 5.1. Both Verizon and Motorola tech said no ota available right now. I really want to update now so I can use all of verizon enhance volte and HD voice. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

[Q] Pure edition update in Canada

A while ago I visited the moto maker website, and bought the xt1095 t mobile pure edition. I am currently using it on a Canadian carrier named Fido. I still haven't receive the 5.1 update and I am getting anxious, since 5.0 runs fairly slowly on the moto x, and I really look forward to the speed boost offered by 5.1. But will there be a delay for updates because I am in Canada? And also a lot of people have got the 5.1 update already, is it still in a soak test process? Please let me know, I literally checks the update every hour lol.

Sure wish google would have kept Motorola It could have been like Nokia and windows, rock solid Nexus like phones lol.

Will a new S5 have Lollipop?

My 2 year plan will be up in Sept. so I will be eligible for a phone upgrade with a new contract. I was thinking about getting an S5 (have an S3 currently), but see that they have locked down the bootloader pretty hard in Lollipop & anyone who took the OTA is pretty much screwed as far as downgrading goes.
My question is, what is the likelihood that come September a new (not a refurb) S5 will or will not come with Lollipop already installed? And if it does, is it the same as OTA in which the bootloader is locked? Or is it different if it comes pre-installed?
Thanks!
Yes, a new phone is guaranteed to have lollipop and it is the same as ota. You will not be able to root a new phone, period. Once updates come out, all new phones have that update so if you want root then you will have to look for used that hasn't been updated or buy a different model.

I just got my AT&T S5 in May and it is an OA1 running KitKat. I was able to ignore the OTA and eventually get to a lollipop custom rom. I bought my S5 from Amazon Wireless.
People seem to be still getting them with OA1, but won't last long.

............. I have seen a few too............ Unfortunately this guy says he won't be upgrading till September, by then they all will probably be 5.0 but also by then we might have root............
I received my S5, roughly 1 month ago. My buddy got first pone in mail, it had 5.0 pre-installed. I got the 2nd phone, mine had 4.4 KK. Both are 900A (ATT).

International Nexus 6 on Verizon with 5.1.1 update battery drain

I got the update to 5.1.1 on my "generic" nexus 6 on Verizon the first day it came it out....I've seen others have had problems getting theirs to update, I didn't have to do anything to get it to update. Anyway, the battery life seems like total garbage compared to 5.1. I'm nearly 100% sure it's the radio that came with this update. Is anyone else on Verizon using the international Nexus 6 experiencing this problem? I would assume it would affect everyone on Verizon.
Verizon has not pushed the 5.1.1 update yet AFAIK. See the OTA updates thread, they are still waiting. What build number do you show (LM something)? Also do you really mean international version (xt1100) or do mean it's an XT1103 (north American) purchased from Google or moto?
I received an OTA from Verizon 2 weeks ago. I was on sort of a combination of E and I. The OTA came down, but I didnt apply it since I knew it would fail anyways and figured I would wait for the Full file to be made available on the Google Factory site. I got impatient this weekend and flashed E clean to see if it would get the OTA and nada, nothing, zilch. I even put the update file back into the cache folder and still nothing.
I still have the file if anyone wants to take a look.

I meant the north American version, sorry. Build number LMY47Z was pushed to my phone the same day it was released. I have a Verizon sim but the phone was bought directly from Motorola. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this pushed and if the radio sucks for them like it does for me.
Any way to edit the thread title to correct the version of the phone I have?

If you are rooted, you can flash the 47D(98r which was released with the VZW Nexus). http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/ref-nexus-6-modem-collection-t2969380
Thats what I did with my Moto purchased 64GB Nexus 6. I updated mine to 5.1.1 prior to putting in my VZW SIM then rolled back the radio.
UPDATE: I only had the 47Z radio installed for a couple of hrs. I could get VoLTE to work with it so I reverted back to the 47D radio and it worked instantly. So I really cant comment on the quality of the radio.

I got the XT1103 from Amazon and have a Verizon SIM -- I'm on 5.1.1 build number LMY47Z.
My battery life has been total garbage as well but I've noticed it's only when I have WiFi on. I've lost up to 30% of charge overnight when connected to WiFi (with or without Mobile Data turned on). Last night I left Mobile Data 'ON' and WiFi 'OFF' and I lost just 4%. The process 'Cell Standby' going rogue has been the reason for this battery drain and I've looked everywhere for a solution without much luck. A few people have reported that toggling VoLTE ON/OFF, turning it OFF and then rebooting has fixed the issue for them. I can't comment on that yet but will test it out when I get home this Thursday (I travel for work).

I was wondering if you guys could confirm your XT1103 UNLOCKED purchases were recent. Google Play Store seems to have the XT1103 for a good deal right now, but I'm concerned about activating on Verizon since Verizon is excluded from the Google support page:
Compatible with a variety of carriers, including those listed below. Availability and timing varies by carrier and retailer. Check with your carrier for details.
North America:
T-Mobile, Sprint, AT&T, USC, Bell, Rogers, Telus, Telcel

I purchased mine from Amazon two weeks back with same day delivery (which was free for some odd reason). I got the 64GB unlocked version (XT1103) for $150 off and an additional $120 off ($50 gift card + $70 gift card when you sign up for Amazon Rewards Credit Card).
I didn't have a nano-SIM so I went in to a local Verizon store and asked them for one. The rep assigned to my case said they couldn't do it for the Nexus 6 and I disagreed -- twice. The rep's supervisor was standing near by and he told the guy to try activating it and it worked without a hitch. I was in and out in 5 minutes.

Ordered mine from directly from Moto on the 14th of June and received it on the 19th. I already had a nano SIM so I just popped it into the Nexus and away I went.
Found this thread following a search regarding terrible battery life.
Got my Nexus 6 just five days ago. Ordered it directly from Motorola, took all the OTA updates up to 5.1.1 (build number LMY47Z). Then I unlocked, rooted, and added some Xposed mods (not running a custom ROM). I just popped my VZW sim in and away I went. My battery life has been worse than terrible, but the idea that it could have something to do with being on Verizon never occurred to me. I'm actually contemplating returning the phone. I seriously can't get through the day with moderate usage without needing to charge around lunch time.
If anyone has some suggestions, I'm all ears.

I'd try a few different things... Some sound dumb/obvious. Do some tests with Mobile Data off vs on. This could tell you for sure if it has anything to do with VZW or the radio firmware. The smoking gun would be if your battery drains very quickly with mobile data turned off. Also airplane mode on vs off. Then, Id reflash either the official firmware or some custom flavor ROM. Also, I'd revert modem firmware if none of that fixed anything. (I do not have this phone yet, so I'm assuming you get good control over which modem firmware you can install.)

If you're rooted you might as well try the radio from 5.1.......either the verizon version or just the generic 5.1 radio. I don't remember having random battery issues like this when I was on 5.1. It seems like the phone is just having a hard time connecting to the network. If you do try another radio can you post back with results? I have not rooted or unlocked the bootloader but I'm getting close.
Flash it back to stock, go one step at a time.....slowly. I suspect an xposed module is eating it up.
