What did you all think about Android 'L'?
Do you thing the moto e will get the L? I'm not talking about the developer preview since i seriously doubt that, I'm talking about the official firmware whenever it is launched...
It does look pretty cool, i specifically enjoyed the windows phone like UI.

Yes Moto E will get Android 5.0 since motorola already told "Next Major Android Update" for Moto E
I sure hope so... the phone was just launched... the problem is that motorola is now owned by lenovo, not google...
But you're right... they said that...

What do the new Play Services do?
I have doubt that moto e will get 5.0 update due to low hardware specification.
Moto E will get Android L. Motorola confirmed it when 4.4.3 update was rolled out, and moto E was launched after it was sold to Lenovo so that shouldn't affect then L update
The MOTO lineup (E,G,X) will recieve updates for 18 months. That is confirmed.

Google I/O is not about device specific updates. Its merely an announcement platform of upcoming Google products/services.
Also, as above post states, its already over.

I couldn't find anything related to nexus 4 on the link you posted.
And, its not about specifications alone. Google has an 18 months policy for nexus devices(same for the Moto lineup). It means they are bound to update the device with every Android version launched within 18 months of the device release date. N4 is past that period so it may be skipped.
That doesn't mean anything for any other device.

See the title of my posted link. The L edition only for N5 and N7. Even its not for N7 2012 edition .N4 users are worry about it and waiting for official announcement.
The only thing I would be worried about is that L runs ART and that takes more space. With 4 GB hopefully that will fit on the moto e.

I find it really odd Google made a point of saying the ota was coming mid-july then released it the day they announced it. I mean I believe its happening it just seems weird, saying that it was out TODAY!!1!1! Would've stolen the news day on every tech site and been free advertising.

That makes a little more sense, I still think it would've been good publicity to make that known with the official announcement, seems like something apple would do (in a good hype-building way).
They said in the keynote that this exactly what would happen.
You will receive a free galaxy nexus....minutes after booting it up you will receive a ota update to 4.1 preview.....

I'm going to guess that the earliest would be tomorrow (hopefully I'm wrong). HTC seems to release things on Fridays.
If HTC sticks to there promise of 15 days we should get it tomorrow. I think we will have it before the Nexus devices too.

I don't believe it'll be exactly on the day. They say 15 days from its announcement. 4.4 was announced on a Thursday. I give them props for the confidence in releasing dates so soon unlike Samsung that just has nothing really. Also if they are pushing it I'll be okay if its within a few days or a week from their proposed day. People get to attached to etas . just wait.

If they do deliver on their promise of today/tomorrow, that'd be awesome.
Someone on reddit posted it might be 15 workdays, which might make more sense and is probably likely if it isn't released today or tomorrow.
Football did tweet that 4.4 GE was nearly finished/ready for rollout and sense 5.5 on android 4.4 was in early testing.
We'll see, I guess. I'm probably gonna convert to GE until android 4.4 + Sense 5.5 comes out.

Will the HTC One for the US (the Unlocked) omit the 4.3 update and go straight to 4.4 KitKat?
Although I'm not that eager for 4.4 it's the fact that we still don't have the new Sense yet that makes me ask.

It already has 4.3. If you're talking about Sense 5.5, then no, it won't get it until it gets the 4.4 update.
The details of the KitKat rollout for the HTC One were shared in an interview with Engadget.
http://www.engadget.com/2013/10/31/htc-one-android-kitkat/
Here are the highlights:
HTC one GPe within 15 days,
HTC One Developer Edition within 30 days
All other North American HTC One SKUs (including all carrier variants) within 90 days
These details were shared on October 31. For HTC to keep the deadline, the HTC One GPe update will need to be released tomorrow and the Dev Edition needs to get its update by the end of November.
Motorola has confirmed that the moto g and e are getting updated to 4.4.4 as with a soak test for the 2013 droid line. Why does the moto x not get the update as well. Is there something with the software that the moto g and e as long with the 2013 droid line don't have or what? But this is good news for us as this means the moto x will get it soon

4.4.3 was set to roll out for our phones before the others but got scrapped due to the vulnerability. So the 4.4.4 update for the Moto X started after the other 2.
Use your brain.
Why is everyone so obsessed with this update? It's incremental and likely has no user facing changes other than the dialer. We have multiple threads on the topic already.

Didn't 4.4.4 include a pretty big security fix to 4.4.3?
Yes it does include security fix also includes 4.4.3 fixes which include a new dialer and camera fixes as well as fix to google cloud print which allows it to be updated via google play store as well as 4.4.3 security and bug fixes
It is a major update as it includes what was going to be be in the 4.4.3 update so it is much bigger of a update then the Nexus's 4.4.4 update

If you are stuck on 4.4.3 I suppose but the vast majority of motorola phones are below and the security bug wasn't introduced before 4.4.3.

I'm curious as to why I haven't seen any one developing an android L build for G2. I've searched google for hours trying to find something but I've only been able to find some spanish sight with one post about how he's "developing" a ROM but nothing else. Isn't any one else exited about L?!?
Because it's an incomplete developer preview, would be a massive waste of time, it's better to wait for the official release and then start working an a usable ROM
