Soak Test Invites going on for Lollipop (5.1 - NEW)

5.1 soak test going on in brazil
http://www.gsmarena.com/motorola_be..._lollipop_for_moto_x_first_gen-news-11982.php

Yea, I can confirm this...

Confirmed. I got it too

Damn, where's mine? Someone please post this img ASAP.

How long until the images start rolling out usually?

I've already filled the SurveyMonkey's survey, and I'm waiting for further steps.. How long did it take them to send you the email with the installation details?

Seems it takes a couple of days for them to collect data and devices from the survey, and then they send it.

I'm wondering how long it will take VZW to roll out the official update when it hits. They were pretty good about 5.0 on the 2nd gen though, they were one of the first to get it if I'm not mistaken.

Yes, my model is the XT1053 of T-Mobile, although I live in Mexico. but I am subscribed to the program of Motorola as tester. And continuously participated in its official support forum.

I live in Mexico too, do you know if I'll need to unlock the BL in order to flash a stock ROM whenever it becomes available?

Let's hope this test is not a joke like the last one (for 5.0) were, at least for Brazillian users.

If you flash stock firmware using fastboot or mfastboot then it is automatically flashed with the firmware, if not you can manually flash it with fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

This is wrong. Motorola is committed to bring newer android versions to our phones. Many other flagship phones by other companies are still on kitkat. We should give proper credit to motorola for their hard work and consistency by agreeing to their conditions. Please close this thread and stop discussing about soak test in these forums. There are specially dedicated forums for soak test discussions on motorola owners' forums.

Based on my last experience on MFN (the 5.0 soak test) even they don't take their forums seriously. The last time, after a lot of problems, no one from Moto answering anything, the forum simply got "reset", erasing all messages and complaints from us.. Very "commited", right?
They invite anyone no matter how NOT tech savvy people are, with a Google Translated-like invite, to a forum where mods barely speak the target language. I don't know how it went for other countries/languages, but at least for the Brazilian versions, it was nothing but a bad joke. I had to manually install a leaked version to actually test it, because my phone wouldn't receive the update no matter what I did.
That said, there is nothing wrong in saying "hey I got invited". You're not disclosing anything about the test itself. Anyway, a Moto engineer is already telling publicly on G+ that soak tests are starting for this or that device and whatnot. (https://plus.google.com/u/0/+DavidSchuster/posts), so it's not actually so secret.

I think unofficial will be out sooner 1-2 week/s.
edit: It looks like they're throwing away the bloatware, that could mean that we will get M very soon.
https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_answer_detail/a_id/108264

I think we will get it sooner than we got 5.0.2, the device has a little more than 1 year, and Motorola has been planning to take us directly to 6.0 for a while, thats why we didn´t get 5.1.1. It wouldn't make sense to buiId a new rom and 2 or 3 months later do it again.
Generally, Motorola devices will probably get the update sooner than before because there are some features that they will not implant like they said on official site.
I also think that Moto g 2014 will be one of the first to get the update, since Moto G 2015 and new Moto X's already have 5.1.1 out of the box, so they can wait a little bit more.
What is happening is exactly like Moto G 2013:
-they got the 5.1.1 earlier straight from KK, but they won't get 6.0;
-we will get 6.0 earlier straight from 5.0.2 but will not get further updates, at least more than 6.0.x or so.
Anyway, if it comes before December it would be awesome, but we must keep waiting, at least for the official rom.

Can the developers work right now creating an Android 6.0 ROM? Or they must wait until kernel sources are released? I'm a total noob about this so I have no idea. Thanks!

We´ll get it first from our devs than motorola no doubt. How soon, dunno, let´s wait.

I'm trying to work with the AOSP 6.0 and make some changes on device tree but I don't have much experience. If have others developers working in this with we will get Marshmallow soon.

Also, I've seen this article http://www.androidstandard.com/android-m-for-moto-g-features-and-release-date/ saying this:
According to latest reports, it has been confirmed that Google will release the Android 6.0 Marshmallow on September 29th. So Motorola may start the rollout to Moto G 3rd Gen in the US in October. Moto G 2nd Gen Google play editions will also receive the Android 6.0 update in October or November. We will update this article with the timeline of rollout of the Marshmallow updates to Moto G series soon.

Moto E UK Lollipop upgrade

Thought you all might enjoy this conversation with the Motorola UK support chatline - can't say I did
After a 20 minute wait
Sai: Hi, my name is Sai. How may I help you?
Me: I have a UK retail first generation Moto E and am wondering when the Lollipop upgrade is likely to be available
Sai: We appreciate your interest on Motorola software updates.
Me: I am glad of that but could you please answer the question?
Sai: Actually we are very close to the official release of L update to all the moto devices. I suggest you to wait until you get the official update.
Me: I have been waiting for several months. Could you please tell me what 'very close' means?
Sai: As we focus on making sure it is tested for the best possible experience to provide our customer an error free android l and that it is compatible with current apps in the marketplace.
Me: But you have already rolled out in several other countries. Why is the UK taking so long?
Sai has disconnected

That's quite amusing (but not for us E 1st gen users)
I been emailing Motorola since 6th July, I got my 1st gen E from Tesco on a 24 month contract.
I was promised by the young lady it was garunteed to be updated to lollipop "within a month of purchase" (got it on 6th of June, it had 4.4.4 KitKat on it at purchase)
No update came, so I started emailing them when I saw on Google+ the update had rolled out in India, Asia and Brazil.
I was told in reply that the device offered for sale in these continents was an XT1022, a very different devise to the XT1021 that we have in the UK.
They also told me they couldn't comment on "continent pacific updates"
I thought "thank you very much, but wheres my answer and when am I getting lollipop?"
I got fed up with waiting, unlocked my bootloader, flashed TWRP recovery, my decision was to install CM12.1.
I then I found a rom port of the Asia, Brazilian and United States stock Motorola 5.1 moto e first gen rom on here by a dev called @lost101, I flashed the US rom and it works flawlessly on my moto e, just make sure if you decide to flash it you download the rom pacific to your own device, ie XT1021, XT1022 ect, ect.
the rom can be found in the moto e development section here on XDA and is titled "Motorola 5.1 lollipop stock rom collection.
Sent from my Bush 5" Android using XDA Forums

Bewildering!! Im amazed L isnt out given when it landed on the Nexus devices. Im now running CM11 which has been a significantly better experience.

I could have sworn a few days ago that I got a software OTA update notification a few days ago on my Moto E (retail version) but I declined it, wanting to do it manually as I was at work at the time. Now I can't get my phone to recognise that there is a software update at all.
Did I just imagine the OTA update? Or have other people had problems where they decline the OTA and then can't later update manually?

Apparently if you plug the phone into a PC with the Motorola website open it will find the available updates.
Regarding these ota updates, we should be thankful we are getting lollipop at all.
There's just been a huge backlash of moto e (2015) 2nd gen owners as this newer device isn't getting marshmallow, which means from release to now, the e second gen has the shortest device support of any manufacturer, just under 300 days!!!
I suppose the only way any of us will see M on a 1st or second gen E would be via CM13 (if any dev is willing to become a device architect and port it to either E's.
I've read that there is doubt that a newer or 3rd gen E is going to be released.
Moto were onto a winner with the e and if you read or watch the e sales paper/video, it was hailed as being the device that will be updated regularly.
Motorola said themselves. In black and white and on video!
Pity because my E is the best android I've owned.
Full stop.

yes u did my battery was on 5% iv charged it tried a manual update :crying: no update:crying:

I hope it will be available within the next few weeks.

Knock me sideways with a feather: the upgrade arrived! I was logged onto the Motorola website with the phone connected to my PC at the time (as per a previous post here) so not sure if the notification is arriving OTA. However, I've downloaded directly to the phone over WiFi (363MB). Currently churning through the app upgrades

Today i got update via OTA for xt1021. I'm from Poland

Gonna have to root methinks and Link2SD... Next to no internal storage left after updating the stock apps following a factory reset after updating to 5.1. Ho hum.

Got the update notification this morn, UK moto e xt1021.

Same here. I thought one of the benefits of lollipop was that you COULD move apps to the SD card without rooting though?

But looking at the size of file which is more than 900 mb it seems to me as official.

It is the US version. Not Indian official one. There are two versions with different sizes one is 800+mb, and another one is 900+ mb but both function the same. Playstore does not work with these.
