Verizon posted last week that the official OTA is coming starting this week, not a soak test. I would guess you got the official, not soak.

Why would Motorola be pushing a soak test at the same time Verizon is releasing an official update, to the same release? I understand you got the email, a lot of people did but on Friday of last week, that was basically negated by the official Verizon memo that the Jelly Bean OTA update would be starting roll out this week. How exactly can you be 100% sure its not the OTA?

Yeah I find this very odd that Verizon put out a public press release announcing that Jelly Bean would be pushed this week before the soak was released. Oh well , we will see what happens. Please post if you did NOT sign up for the soak and received the Jelly Bean OTA

Thanks for signing up for the Droid RAZR HD and RAZR Maxx HD software test. The software should be pushed to your phone early tomorrow, and we're now opening the private community for your comments.

Yeah, that doesn't show me how you are 100% sure.
At this point this just seems weird that they are pushing at the same time. I would almost guess that they worked together and Verizon is pushing first to those that signed up, then will go to the rest of the users by the end of the week. My issue is a true soak test should happen a good deal before OTA as to fix any unknown bugs. Just seems weird to me and I doubt there is any actual way to verify who your update actually came from since I am sure its the same version.

I received that email late last night from Motorola, this morning I received ota.

I doubt they do it at the same time. Soak test will last about 3 days then they'll push it out. Verizon just said this week, not starting Monday.

You have 8 posts under your name and you are establishing "official" threads? I am not trying to school you or embarrass you but you need to read through the forums to make sure your question/ statement hasn't already been threaded.

People who have recieved the soak test in other threads are report a version number of 9.8.1Q_39. Since Verizon has already said they are pushing 9.1.41 it makes me wonder if Moto is pushing a version to fix all the bugs we are going to find in the OTA Verizon is pushing this week? It would make a lot more sense with a soak test and official OTA seemingly going on at the same time.
If this is the case I would not be suprised if the VZW OTA is "delayed". Meaning Verizon knows the OTA is buggy, but annouced it to meet a deadline.

He stated it in an earlier post. This is starting to make a little bit more sense than them running a soak test at the same time as the Verizon OTA. I must have missed the soak test window :crying:

You haven't really missed a soak. We've only had it 24 hours so far. I'd bet Verizon wants it asap as the HDs are still a premium price phone and they hope to sell a lot through the holidays.
I gotta admit i do feel kinda gypped after the signup process and agreements, then having to report experiences with it, that i only have it a few days early. Feels like a waste of everyone's time and it was only done because there's a department in Moto that handles soak testing that got steamrolled by corporate demands.
Oh well, at least it will keep us on the list for the next official soak.

You should be able to udate to the OTA by using the update.zip the same way you did for the leak, if we don't get it over the air...

cool i appreciate it i wasnt sure thats all
OTA update will/should come threw just fine. Now haivng it install correctly could be a whole different story tho as we DO NOT know the specifics on the file that was posted over the weekend everyone jumped on before it was taken down.
Put it this way tho I've had engineering units from mfgs in the past and even those update correctly OTA so I wouldn't be to concerned about it. Plus if won't take long for someone to actuaaly grab and post the update.zip once it is pushed out.
Yeah that would be good. I still haven't received mine.

Has anyone actually gotten the OTA froyo yet? I've read things that said it was within 24 hours of the 20th... Also, when you say loading a custom theme, that doesn't mean a launcher right? Like LauncherPro?
OTA is not out yet. All previous info about release dates was just rumors.
And no, custom themes doesn't mean launchers, since those are just apps. It means actually modifying system files like framework-res.apk for different status bar, notification area, etc...
You really don't know as every company handles it differently and Moto for some reason is trying to keep the device locked down. However if you look at past phones (at least the two Androids I have had)
G1 normally you got the option to upgrade but you would lose root or would have to wait for JesusFreke to get the file and root it.
The Droid Eris there were actually 3 leaks to 2.1 all which prevented you from getting the OTA because of the boatloader #, however a couple of weeks after they finished updating everyone HTC released an OTA for all leakers (which allowed everyone to gain root conveniently enough if they wanted to downgrade and get root)
So really no one knows except Moto but normally leakers get it one way or another either through OTA or having someone upload the OTA as an update.zip file and you flash it to your phone. Hope that helps and wasn't too much of a history lesson lol

but is there anything official in regards to when 2.2 is coming out? cuz they were saying end of summer and to day is aug27th and still nothin
Summer ends September 23rd, so I am guessing very late summer. Probably some time around the second week of September, if not that last week of summer......hopefully not later than that.

[Q] Is 2.2 for sure in testing?

Because I'm curious, I know some say that its currently in testing.
I found this site from the Motorola site:
https://motorola-global-android.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/62460
Which makes it look like 2.2 is coming verrrry soon.
yes, i can tell you not only is it in testing but most likely coming soon.
i have seen proof of it on phones.

No its OTA. It goes out like all the other moto phones ota's.
the private moto forums have discussed it and it seems besides one girl having issues (unrelated to the update probably) everyone is saying it works good.
I dont know what they are watiing for, but surprisingly, the 2.2 rom is done and ready to ship. Probably waiting fot att confirmation.
Guess we get a carrier text when it is about to come out?

Sweet. That is excellent news.
Uh oh
Will it still upgrade to 2.2 if I have removed the AT&T branded crapware?
What application/service do I need to unblock in droidwall for it to come down?
Did you totally remove the crapware?? I used Bloat Freezer on the ATT bloatware and unfroze everything before updating. No problems.
Yes. This was before I read that you had to keep it. Removed without backup with Titanium right after I had rooted. Would a factory reset put it back? I'd like to not have to exchange the phone at a store, but not having Froyo is kind of a killer. I mean, FPSE isn't even compatible with eclair
What i'm hoping for is that motorola will put it on the update map soon so that we have a rough date. As for apps.. if anything couldn't we get the files off one of our bravos if factory reset doesn't work?

Gingerbread out to Testers

Looks like I didn't make the cut to be among the 1000 beta testers, dang it. I completed the survey within 15 mins of receiving the email, guess that wasn't fast enough.
Fingers crossed no issues are found and everyone gets it soon.
http://www.gottabemobile.com/2011/0...erbread-update-rolls-out-to-some-users-today/
i dont know why people are acting like gingerbread isn't already here...
You don't want the OTA. The upgrade in SOAK will stop you flashing back. After its released the devs will dig into it to see what is different to the leaked OTA.

Just because you dont have the OTA yet doesnt mean you where not picked. When its full the survey actually closes so if you filled it out you usually get the Soak. And like stated dont blindly update the OTA if you are unlocked or dont want to risk not being able to downgrade.

So, as of right now, I am running 1.83 with GladiAtrix, locked bootloader, and very happy.
When the OTA goes out to everybody who is on AT&T, who isn't in the SOAK, I know that I will have to flash back in order to actually get the OTA because of the changes to my file system. You are saying that this new OTA will prohibit me from being able to unlock my bootloader, when the time comes that I want to do that?
Personally I don't do custom ROMs (or unlock the bootloader) until the phone is out of warranty or Moto made it official not to release new updates. I can't rely on bugs in custom ROMs...learned the hard way a while back.
With that said, didn't Moto hint to be unlocking the bootloader with the Gingerbread update?

The OTA that was released a little while bricked people who tried to SBF down to a lower firmware. This OTA will most likely do the exact same thing.

At&t version must be rewponsible for 30% of the market or less. I'm talking about the international version. Battery life sucks , wallpapers take a phone reset to re apply, widgets may go missing, some phones are overheating... of fourse, some have no problems at all, but this is certainly not a final release.

Flashing around with RSD is bad in general. There wont be a reason to flash back to older builds since the bootloader is now unlocked. One little glitch while using RSD can result in a brick. Careful what you post about the Moto-OTA test. The main email said not to mention anything about the soak. This is the 4th post I have seen about it now even if you didnt get in, the NDA was still agreed too and now violated again.

Just because I don't care for custom ROMs doesn't mean I want a crappy OS[x]. Who made up the rule that if you own an Android phone it's a requirement to install custom ROMs. You? If so, sorry son, your argument is flawed. Go troll somewhere else.

Anyone else still waiting for the OTA?

Pure edition here. Using old SIM from original first generation Moto X.
Pure edition on At&t go phone plan still waiting for OTA. I actually had to get a new sim as the one from my original moto x 2013 was causing fits. I hope we are not the forgotten ones!
Anyone know how long it should take on the average to push these OTA's?
I don't think anyone has got it other than the people on the soak test. I know the LG G3 got it today and the Nexus 5 did as well. So looks like Moto X will be 3rd in line....
Same boat here. PE on AT&T, mobile share plan with new SIM.

Soak is actually done and final images are indeed being pushed out. OTAs are pushed in stages though and it can take up to a few weeks to get it. You can always download the ota zip from the thread here and install it. it is motorola oficial file so, assuming you have a pure edition phone you should be good to go!

I believe that final version is 22.11.6 and that is the same that is hosted on graffixnyc's thread. I think that soak files were up to .5.

A friend of mine has a LG G3 and nothing so far.
Pure Edition on T-Mobile with SIM that shipped with phone and nothing yet for me.
32GB Pure Edition here, no OTA.
It's really starting to look like they pulled it. I haven't heard of anyone getting it in the last few days.
I have two going theories right now:
1) The OTA push was a mistake and they simply meant to expand the soak, but messed up. Once they caught it, they stopped the OTA from going any further.
2) They were spooked by the L specific bugs that have been reported, and pulled the OTA. Also maybe having something to do with moto specific customizations. Such as the conflict between the new Google Search always listening feature and Moto Voice? Etc etc.
I have another theory : this was just a rush between lg, moto and others for marketing purposes. Just bad announcement and paper launch but nothing is ready yet.

The otas for the n5 and 4 have been pulled because of an sms bug, the n6 is also affected and so seems the moto x from my own experience, although this bug only seems to affect vodafone.nl users
I just received my Pure Edition today, and I haven't seen anything regarding the update yet. I was contemplating flashing the soak zip, but I think I'll wait until the update actually hits. 4.4.4 is good enough for me right now, anyway... especially since it doesn't have all the crap that my Note 3 had on it.
Apparently a couple of the HTC phone are being updated in Friday Nov 21.....
I had direct correspondence with an engineer from Motorola regarding some of the bugs. He has gone silent in the last week.
I would also find it plausible that they have stopped the roll out and will be pushing a new update when bugs are ironed out. He and I were talking about the Bluetooth streaming issues.

The official build is .6 doesn't matter if it came from that last soak test or not. A build is a build. The .6 from the soak test turned out to be the official build. Now if the build number had been different that's one story.. And also just FYI.. The .6 zip in my thread.. Was taken from a guy not even part of the soak test, he never signed up. The .5 zip was taken from someone in the soak test but not the .6 one. I wish people would know what they are talking about before they just say things.
I'm sure its still in the soak test phase. I bet we are still a couple of weeks off from getting the official update for everyone...

[INFO] TestDrive vs. Soak Test vs. Full Deployment + News Update [2015-06-23]

Thanks to David Schuster, we have a nice clear and concise distinction. (https://plus.google.com/+DavidSchuster/posts/7gyi8NQZTZB)
TestDrive --> Early validation to a small group (20-200) of individuals that can last weeks to months.
Soak Test --> Next stage, using the final release candidate lasting usually 2-7 days.
Full deployment --> Last stage, full roll out of update.
Moto X 1st Gen 5.1 Update (2015-06-23):
--> Looks like the final release version will be 222.21.15 for those who didn't know already. (https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_answer_detail/a_id/105221)
--> Full soak tests for France and Germany Retail. (https://plus.google.com/+DavidSchuster/posts/ETpoNrkmmrA)

What carrier was your Moto X?
I've been part of all the prior soak tests but no invite for me yet.
Just FYI, that's speaker phone problem is not an issue in the .15 for US.

Saw a post of a chat to Moto support somewhere on the forums where the Moto employee answering said we will get M. But we all know to take this kind of thing with lots of pinches of salt.

Motorola support employees know nothing about updates. They are reading from a script, and they don't really know what to say about future updates. So, yeah, no pinches of salt, just ignore whatever they say.

Yeah, I saw the screenshot too, but it was painfully vague and only mentioned that the 2013 X may be eligible. So, yeah, double suspect there. We'll probably get more half baked Cyanogen forks of M and that's it.

Yeah you probably right. I can't see them doing all of this over again to give us M. They might just can everything after 5.1, which will be a shame considering its such an awesome handset.
Check the first post for some more updated info. Soak tests happening all over now. Just no full roll outs...
Does anyone have news about GB Retail? I know David hasn't listed it but maybe theres been some leaks?
[Erased false link.]
Check first post for info on official full deployment of 5.1
