Okay Sprint. What's the deal? (4.4) - Moto X General

Seriously,I messaged them and they told me it's on Motorola's end. This is hard to believe I'm getting very irritated with the lateness of kit Kat

Very hard to believe seeing as how Verizon was on it, next day T-Mobile gets updated and where is Sprint at?? The Sprint Galaxy Nexus was updated before any carrier, which was awesome but now the Moto X update to Kit Kat, not a word any where. I so wish my contract with Sprint was up because after being a 16 year Sprint customer, I am ready to jump ship with these fools. The network gets worse and worse everyday, it seems. It should not take this long for our Moto Xs to be updated!

Why are people still on sprint? It's no cheaper than any other carrier, and it has the worst signal. I get if you're stuck in a contract, but there are some that willingly sign a new one with them.

Could be Moto holding the update until a bug fixer is available for the rest of us. There are some bugs in Kit Kat that need attention.

Dude, US Cellular doesn't have it either... Doesn't matter how much we try. When it comes it comes.

Sprint service is actually amazing where I live compared to Verizon, so having unlimited data is very nice. T-Mobile and att are non existent

I believe stock unlocked boot loader is fine too) link: https://forums.motorola.com/posts/77d4221775 Joining this though and participating involves rules like here. Fightclub rule number 1?

Some people are experiencing hissing noises during calls that seems to only affect Sprint Moto Xs; other carrier Xs don't seem to have the issue and other phones in the same area of service for Sprint also don't exhibit this issue. This could also be a source for the delay.

U.S. Celluar hasn't given a date other than "by the end of the month". We know the prices but that's all!! Seems like everyone is in this waiting game.
I just called sprint and they said that it will be available for purchase, not pre order on the 25th. I also asked a buddy of mine that is a district manager for t-cellular which is a third party seller for sprint and he said he would actual have the phone for sale. Not sure if that is accurate though, because best buy had no clue.

Could the lack of info on pricing be because they are waiting for the official "announcement" tomorrow. Samsung has event planned so maybe that is when they will announce prices for all carriers and flavors??

No, I worked for best buy and Verizon and T-Mobile. Oddly enough, T-Mobile people were the most informed because we had good communication from up top. Verizon was OK, not great, at giving us info. Best Buy is the worst. Not much training, they don't have answers, they pass stuff on that they change hours later. Incredibly disorganized.

T-mobile Development

Why is it we get the last of all the ports..
I think it's because the devs have the att and Verizon variants atleast we get it they could say f**k us
Sent from my LG-D801 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Realistically, probably because T-Mobile will probably have the smallest buy base. But, in the end it shouldn't be too much of a hindrance given how close the T-Mo variant is to both the AT&T version, and the international version. The roms will come no doubt. Just be patient.

At least your variant is released. Sprint is getting theirs Nov 8th.
I have faith, there are a lot of great devs using tmobile and I'm sure some will be here sooner or later.
Also we have a couple great devs providing some great rooms already.

And you he won't release it until people actually test it.
If no one is willing to test it, there's no reason to continue development

Thank god I have Jump.
It's because everyone else is locked in 2 year contracts. It will take time before everyone realizes how much better it is to go with T-Mobile.. I just jumped ship from sprint a month before my contract ends.. SO WORTH IT!
I like how when/if I pay off my phone in 2 years, my bill will actually drop whatever my phone payments were.. With other 2 year contracts, you keep paying the same price even if you don't upgrade your phone.. Ohhh I could go on and rant about the other carriers, but yes more and more hopefully will go to T-Mobile and start making some roms here.

I just switched to sprint for free and sold my us cellular moto x to pay the early termination, im now the proud owner of a moto x on sprint with unlimited data, I was paying so many overages with data as I use it to tether my surface pro. When sprint gets the update can I just unlock bootloader and flash su.zip since the sprint version is available for bootloader unlock?

There is no direct causative evidence pointing to the fact that the NDA was broken and if that was why the soak test was cancelled. However, yes, the soak seems to have been cancelled.
It is plausible that the test was cancelled so that they could begin the general rollout instead; which, if true, is actually a good move by Motorola. I don't see why anyone should be angry that the soak is cancelled in light of the news of the general rollout. Once we have our hands on the update file, we can ADB sideload and profit!

Check for updates, mine is downloading as we speak.. no im not in the soak or any of that
Edit: Download complete, and update is installing.

I'm not miffed yet. It's been less than a week since Verizon got the update. I'll start getting annoyed if it takes more than two weeks after the Verizon roll out.
The weekend probably stopped them from releasing any more updates for different carriers. If Monday comes and goes without another Moto X update then I would worry.

Where is our MM

Didn't Samsung say February for marshmallow on our Note 4? Or was it March? Either way no update what so ever this month?
It was scheduled for this month.
Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk
This mo? Don't think so. The note 5, international mind you, has only just started seeing it as of yesterday so I wouldn't expect ours until towards the end of the second quarter at least. Besides you'll see an rdf pop up 1st once they actually start working on it then many more rdf versions until a final release. I'm dropping this phone the day the new g5 drops anyway. It's just uneceptible the g4 has marshmallow since Christmas along with practicality every other manufacturer except Samsung. The g5 looks to be a killer device too. Hope they really sink Samsungs ship with it honestly. Especially after the update fiasco for the note 4 last year. Typical Samsung fashion though. Rant over.

The G5 is a two-lens modular multi-featured camera pretending to be a smart phone.
If I want a modular high-quality digital camera, I'll buy one with a couple lenses I can switch between.
I want a smart phone, and I'm happy if it has nice camera features.
Each to his/her own, though.

Perhaps the release from Samsung was scheduled for this month - but Samsung releases to the carriers, at least in Sprint's case, and then the carrier does their thing with it until they deem it ready to release to their customers. Samsung doesn't set Sprint's schedule

International version would probably get it 1st before anyone then if that goes ok then they would release it to the carriers. At least that's how it usually goes. I've been keeping a close eye on sammobile for that to happen so hopefully soon.

Not necessarily - just because Sprint releases later than the international carriers doesn't mean that they receive it later. It's generally bad practice to openly treat some of your customers as guinea pigs for the benefit of the others, so it's more likely that Samsung sends out its generic rom to all carriers at the same time and Sprint just takes longer to add their proprietary bloat. It's also likely that Sprint waits to announce the upcoming version for the same reason xda devs don't do ETAs - because too many people take "estimate" to mean "promise" and get upset when delays happen.

It doesn't matter - either way brings us back to my original point, that Samsung's release dates are meaningless to us. We could get our update the next day, a year later, or never, with equal probability. The only useful deduction we can make from their release date is that we definitely *won't* see our update before that date, which really isn't very useful at all
