Has anyone else been asked about installing a new system update? I'm getting prompted that the new version is 21.21.15.en.US
I'm weary, maybe there was a root exploit that they are trying to patch? No change log showed up on the phone.

I got it too. No way will I install it yet.
same here....definitely holding off on any updates... Fingers crossed for root, etc...
No updates and definitely not taking one.
I got the upgrade, definitely not taking it yet.

Dude, the phone's been on sale for 4.5 hours. Most people are still at work. Relax.
I'm running 21.21.12 and haven't been prompted for an update.
i can almost bet that is for the VoLTE update.
Edit:
or the battery duration issues.
Glad someone got this thread going, was about to do it myself, I know we all have similar questions about it. I haven't been prompted but didn't manually check as I was going through settings, was surprised to see one waiting.

Why are you providing such limited information?
Did you hear about this from other news sites or forums? I too, have seen other people comment on blogs saying it's not the VoLTE update, but they didn't state how they knew that either. Or are you in a VoLTE market and have personally tested it?
I was having IMS issues and this update fixed it. IMS wasn't registering and texts would take around a minute for me to receive.

What's IMS?
IMS allows sms to be sent over LTE. Without IMS your texts go through the legacy network and take significantly longer to send and receive than with IMS.

Randomly checked and there's an update out!
Yup it enables advanced calling (hd and video) , voLTE, and when you silence or on vibrate phone the boot up droid sound doesn't come up.
Besides VoLTE, has it done anything else?
Fix the data leak?

It also seemed to have fixed the shutter on back camera (front camera still lags a lot) also battery drain standby has been fixed, last of all the boot up sound is muted when phone on standby or vibrate
I personally haven't noticed any difference in the camera shutter.. With or without HDR on.. But I never noticed being slow to start with..
Does the update break Google voice?
Shutter lag was bad for me and this update definitely sped it up.

New update received today. Anybody know what it specifically fixes? The Verizon link was very vague.

Thanks for these details! I received the update about an hour ago.
I guess it fixed that annoying location found bug. So far havent seen that popup once.
What the heck? I have noticed better performance too and also data and WiFi reception has gotten better too.

So far for me reception has been overall better and also VoLTE seems to be.........working like initially intended. I'm wondering though if they changed anything that might impact battery life in anyway.
Wifi significantly improved on my turbo.

Lol! I hope so! I think it has something to do with the build number? Didn't the build number change with this new update? Not sure thou.
I think that means "soak" and they forgot to change it

No because they won't recompile after soak.
If they did, it would break all hash checks for soakers and they would never be able to get another ota.

Mine showed up there too though and long enough that I was able to long press it and choose app info.
So, I got a small update just now for my N900T. The changelog says OS 5.1.1.
I'm installing now. Will update when it's finished.
Edit: Added screenshot.
Build number is N910TUVU2DOK2
I have a update downloading as well, lets see how this goes. You meant to type N910T I presume?

Yes, I know the N910T3 has had 5.1.1 for a while, but no, this is for the N910T.
Unfortunately I am not rooted, so I can't provide any firmware dump or anything else that would be of help to devs.

When the install finished downloading, it asked me to confirm the install. That's when it showed the changelog. I should have taken a screenshot of it. Probably had good info. Oh well, too late for that now.

Haven't played with it enough yet. Time for bed. Have to go to work in a few hours. But the install went smoothly, and the first boot was fine.

As for rooting, I'm sure the usual suspects from XDA will be on it in no time. They'll probably have root before I get home from work.

I hope this leads to a fix for the finger print bug in ROMs. This is my first device that has a finger print scanner and I don't like giving out passwords lol.
Just got the update as well on a non-rooted N910T.
Really hoping for some improvements in speed.
Finally. I've noticed better reception so far. I'm at the Dr's office which I never get signal in the waiting room but I got 2 bars. Hopefully it fixed reception that 5.0.1 messed up for me

Bars don't mean anything. What's the change in dBm under settings/about phone/status/signal strength?

And so many wonder why the general public bemoans updates. Not that I used it much but it was nice to have if it is in fact gone. I hope they didn't change much else.
The real update I see is that the Stagefright exploit is fully patched.
Most of you on this thread might not care but if you install this update, there's no going back to KK or Lollipop.

This is Lillopop 5.1.1 right?
Nothing happens when I tap the send button. Anyone else having similar issues?
Yes, I am experiencing the same issue. A temporary workaround until a fix is produced is to enable "Send using Enter" in the settings.
Same here. I thought it was only me
Me too, I am back on the stock client for now. From what I can tell Textra needs to adjust touch placement for the notification bar. I was going to send them an email since they have been super responsive in the past... then I thought they probably hate me right now. lol
I noticed that you basically have to tap a CM(1/4") or two under what you actually want to touch. I'm sure they'll get it fixed soon once the device is in more users hands.
Ditto...also can't swipe to delete unless I increase the font size to 150% (Settings - Customize Look)
Experiencing this as well!

Understood, adb hasn't always been my friend either and definitely had some trouble with getting this one connected as well. Hopefully Textra will come out with an official update shortly. They are usually pretty good in that regard.

I couldn't stand using the Google messenger app anymore... so I spent a lot longer than I should have doing the ADB commands... I had to use an older version of the Android SDK install I had on one of my computers...lol
It works and yeay... still sad I had to do it. lol
Still can't get the app to work. Super frustrating.

You really don't have to mess with SDK installs and all that. Just download load minimal ADB and fastboot. It's super nice for stuff like this.

Wondering if anyone has or has not received the update? Is there a way to force it? I still haven't gotten mine and I really want to start using it.
Thanks in advance!

There is a way to force it if you have root but according to the article your mileage may vary, You can find the instructions for what you need to do here https://www.xda-developers.com/try-android-messges-for-web-now/

Traveling without a computer.
I even removed and then redid the update, nothing! Not a happy camper!
Guys this is a staged rollout even once you have the update until google turns on the feature server side for you you don't get it. So chill and relax it will eventually work.
its here, i have it right now, w/o the hack
