Will Motorola provide an update to Marshmallow? - E 2015 General

Since some variants of Moto E still didn't get the 5.1 update, Do you think Motorola is planning to update directly to Marshmallow ?

I would hope so

I think it's easier for them to prepare an update from a single version, so if guess they'd update everything to 5.1 or 5.11 then to m

it won't be direct update for sure, It will get 6.0 but we will have to wait a long time

Its a recently released device. Its highly unlikely not to get a direct ota update on android 6.0

At this rate we might get a stable custom ROM of marshmallow before we get the official update :laugh:

Official M is likely to come, because device is rather new, And Surnia device already has the 5.1 update (at least in some countries) or only US?
or are Motorola Europe waiting for android M instead of continuing pushing 5.1 release

I mean the rate in which the developers are making progress to build stable roms for this phone here in xda (cm12.1,RR,PAC etc).
Reading http://www.xda-developers.com/hello-moto-what-are-you-doing-an-opinion-on-motorolas-transformations/ I'm sure we'll get a custom marshmallow rom before the official update (if there is any).

The worst part is when they released the Moto E2 it ended up being a lie.

Wow, so it only gets 1 incremental update & 1 stage fright patch? The phone literally released in 2015, yet it has achieved EOL only a few months after it's released, surely this is just a joke...even the Moto G features the same SD410 so there's no excuse.

There is excuse, it's called price

I've been thinking about this. I wonder if they're just getting done variants first because it become their priority and their new business model. It doesn't necessarily mean they're going to leave us all in the dark on the carriers. They also did have the disclaimer on the web page that its all subject to change. I'm going to hold off on my rage a little bit and see what happens.
To be honest the only thing I'm interested in in marshmallow is Google on tap.

The Moto G 2013 saw official support from 4.3 to 5.1 ... I guess Lenovo is likely going to push a 3rd gen E that's keeping in line with the design of the current series.

I'd imagine we will probably get M eventually. I just don't think Motorola wanted to commit to the update until it had the source code and could verify it would run fine on a device this low spec'd.

Well we're not on Motos list...devices that weren't on the list for 5.X never received it. Source was pushed to AOSP on the 5th...I think its a entry level/disposable device in their eyes and they're looking to the next gen already. But to be fair they guaranteed "1" update and I guess that was 5.0.2 to 5.1...

Already got burned with the Atrix 4G when they left it on 2.3. Gave Moto another chance with the E 2015, never again.

well you have to wait because it looks like Motorola is working on 4.4.4 update.
Waiting for 4.4.4
I don't think we will receive the update 4/5 weeks before as other sites stated that .But it is clear that no 4.4.3 ,direct 4.4.4.
Hopefully this explains the delayed roll-out of 4.4.3. The question is now; will 4.4.4 be subject to another staged roll-out? Considering the changes are apparently minimal (only security fixes) - 4.4.4 could roll-out in more than one country at once.
Wow. That article is so poorly written, I don't see how anyone could base anything off what it says.
now iam on xt1033 dualsim 8 gb and still on 4.4.2 and no get update to 4.4.3
and i hope get update 4.4.4 later
Directly 4.4 not before of 1 month for europe i think. Probably more. Hoping to be wrong for me lol
Hope it gets europe soon. *fingers crossed*

Of course the post on that forum totally misrepresents what the Motorola employee said. In fact, the Motorola rep didn't even mention the Moto G specifically. And he certainly didn't say the rollout stopped.

I read all that carefully, not only the moto g isn't specified, but also it clearly says they are referring to the "droid" line of devices, not the moto line...
But I seriously doubt we won't get any Android L* sometime in the future, this is a gpe device, when Google took it in, we got a 2+ year (or until Qualcomm goes bankrupt) software warranty.

No, 4.4.4 fix the CVE-2014-0224 bug (OpenSSL)

Moto E soak tests have begun.

I just got a message from MFN saying that I can get into the soak tests. Attached a pic as proof. If you need the OTA zip captured, sign up for the Motorola Feedback Network at their forums. I don't have access to my phone right now. That's to it.
For the benifit of the community, I request anyone who's got their XT1022 at the moment to capture the OTA zip. Ask questions here, don't worry of Motorola. They can't do much.
Noobs: A soak test is an initial update given to users to test whether it works. It won't harm your phone. (Yes, I know what you're thinking. You'll get the lollipop update. Yay!)
After you sign up on the forums, sign up for MFN. Instructions are given there. Then use this link. You'll get an updated version of the Update services. Download it, wait for it to download the update, then post it here. No excuses. If the link expires, (it will) just swap the G in w7oUG%3d with some other alphabet, except B.

Hi
Per the instructions you are supposed to keep MFN communications confidential. Furthermore, it is not an Android update/upgrade Feedback Opportunity. Start time for Motorola Feedback Network opportunities are always fluid. Rarely after we send out invites do selected users get an email that an opportunity is starting. The sharing of mis-information really hurts the masses.

CONFIRMED Official Lollipop 5.1 for Moto X 2013 [UPDATED 06-19-2015]

Source: David Schuster - https://plus.google.com/+DavidSchuster/posts/cV4vDyyMmw2
LATEST UPDATE [06-19-2015]
Full deployment has started for US Retail, Brazil Retail and Rogers in Canada.
Source: David Schuster - https://plus.google.com/+DavidSchuster/posts/bEVD4De32Uo
UPDATE [06-09-2015]
"I wanted to give a quick update on where we are with the Lollipop upgrades for the 2013 Moto X (1st Gen) devices.
We have started full soak testing in France and Germany retail this week with the expectation of full deployment next week if all goes well.
In addition, we have addressed an issue we found in a previous soak test and should start full soak testing in the US and Brazil for retail later this week. If all goes well, full deployment can happen the following week.
There were some questions about support for Lollipop upgrades from our carrier channels. We are in a number of the carrier labs now so we don't anticipate issues in getting the upgrades deployed. As you guys know.... the carrier channels typically take longer.
UPDATE: If all goes well with the soak testing this week we expect to start deployment for 2013 Moto X (1st gen) in India next week."
Source: David Schuster - https://plus.google.com/+DavidSchuster/posts/ETpoNrkmmrA
UPDATE [04-22-2015]
Due to the "leaks" about 5.1 "updates rolling out" in Brazil, here's some trusted words in regard to 5.1 current state:
"We're still in testing. We'll post something in the parked comments when it moves to the Soak stage and then again when full deployment happens. Don't always believe what you read online."
Source: Motorola Forums Manager (Mark).
Awsome

Do you mean those who installed 5.0.2 test drive?
I don't think Motorola would leave the official MFN testers on an incomplete test drive version, furthermore it makes sense to use the same testers to test 5.1, so as soon as those users get 5.1 it will leak and those who sideloaded 5.0.2 will have the upgrade.
Otherwise, it would be as easy as return to 4.4.4 temporary (skipping gpt and motoboot) and sideload the 5.1 upgrade, not big deal.
No matter what, the situation is not to feel bad about them, maybe they'll even get the upgrade before you do.
I have an brazilian XT 1058 and take the soak. I will be able to update to 5.1?
Logically yes.

I'm not saying Moto did or did not fix anything, but so many people keep saying "Ohhh its version XXXX which has XXXX bug!"
1.) We don't run AOSP
2.) When google updates android, all of those changes are published. 5.1 is NOT a full re-write, sections of code are fixed. These fixes are published and if moto REALLY felt like it they could apply all the same code changes to a 5.0.1 base... At that point what is "version number" is is kinda semantics....
Moto started work on 5.0.2, so that is what their build is called, there is no reason they cannot include the already published bug fixes from later versions of android so they they can release their tested a developed build rather then throwing everything away and starting with a new base every time google updates.

I want to make sure we can still unlock the phone. We should be able to get a complete CM13 now if the bootloader can still obtain perm unlock and we have perm root.
I haven't seen any new phone released since our Note 4s that delivers every feature I want plus more, so I'm planning on sticking with our note 4s for some time to come.

For me it's not working and saying software up to date.
So, was anyone able to install the update?
Not avaiable for me too, also saying it's up to date.
According to the mods in the Motorola forums those are the release notes but it HAS NOT been released to anyone outside of the soak tests.
