Actually I'm not testing it myself so no need to be happy for me, just wanted to notify the community that Sony should be on schedule to release early 2015.

found interesting website - though we can only get version info and guess.

I wonder how they'll deal with the built in default encryption of the file system with an update.. I imagine it'll take extra time to update while it encrypts the device?

When I updated my Nexus 5 to Lollipop it stayed unencrypted. I looked it up and as I understand it only new devices will have encryption forced on.

I hope so.
Early it's so big word, so that's can be February or March (its early too). [emoji6]
Good to see to get this updates, specialy the Z1.
I don't like the update policy of the hardware manufacturers (Samsung, LG and others). The android version is to much fragmented. And the updstes are important (security updates etc.).
I hope a stable, good working custom roms comes out next time. I would like to root the phone. I think to backup the drm keys, we can forgot in future (specially at the Lollipop [selinux]).

Official ETA for Lollipop by OPO

Hey friends,
We know there is a lot of excitement in the community surrounding the Lollipop updates for the One, and for good reason. We are just as excited as you are.
We never intended to keep you waiting. Unfortunately, we ran into some unexpected roadblocks. First, there was an unforeseen OS signing issue, which has recently been resolved. Our camera module had stability issues on Lollipop, and we had to rebuild it for compatibility. Several other crucial drivers, including our Wi-Fi drivers, also needed to be updated to work flawlessly with the upgrade. Admittedly, it took a little more time than we had planned, but we only release updates that we are proud of; that means refusing to take shortcuts or deliver sub-par experiences.
With all of that in mind, here are the official release dates for Android Lollipop on the OnePlus One:
CM 12S: The official OTA update for the OnePlus One will be released on or before March 30, 2015
OxygenOS: The official release of our own Lollipop-based ROM will be available for download on or before March 27, 2015
To show you how serious we are about this commitment to our community, we are prepared to put our money where our mouth is. If we miss either one of these deadlines, we will give away five (5) 64GB OnePlus One devices to our fans. Reply to this thread to be eligible.
It’s our little way of saying thank you for being patient and for joining us on our journey to create amazing, user-driven experiences.
Never Settle.

6.0 in testing

Sony/E6853/E6853:6.0/32.1.A.0.X
Only a minor version change.
Do you mean Sony is testing Android 6.0 beta on Z5 series? If so, could you tell me how to get it?

Sony has 6.0 test builds already, operators should be getting them for acceptance tests.
I'm not personally testing them since I'm "stuck" with retails devices at the moment and no sorry I can't tell you how to get it.
I see. So do you think we will get "concept" version of 6.0 just like Z3 and Z3C soon?
I'm receiving an update now...don't know what it is yet!
Z5C was on 6.152 and as of yesterday is now on 6.200
My Z5P on 6.170, so the new update might be 6.200, putting everyone on the same version.

Check Sony's developer's website for instructions on how to unlock your BL and flash AOSP 6.0. I would just wait though. It's rumored to be officially released OTA in a month or two. Then you wouldn't need to lose your DRM keys.

I can see the binaries, is there an actual build that is flashable? I haven't seen one yet for my Z5P. I have 6.0 on another phone and would love to see a working build for this one. If you can point me toward the download, i would appreciate it.

Not that I know of. Just the binaries. You will have to build it on your own by following Sony's directions.

I think Sony may hold off and move to a once yearly now. There have been no substantial Z6 leaks and we usually see something within a month before MWC.

Huh? How do you come to that conclusion?
I guess the update will be with us either this month or next month. Either way we get it soon. The phone works fine ATM so there's no rush.
At this stage every year we usually see a leak of sufficient substance to show a phone will be released. So far nothing. All the leaks are just rumours.
Also at the start of last year Sony was asked whether they were going to move to yearly.... They said 'not yet' (the Z3+ then came out.)
If anything, the Z6 will be the same as the Z5 lineup with a change of SoC. Design change will be later in the year.
Any news? Does we get MM before or after MWC?

Z5 marshmallow update start rolling out

"Good news for xperia z5 owners"
Sony Xperia Z5*owners have a nice treat to wake up to this morning. The device is now getting Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
We should note that rollouts are only known to have begun in Turkey, and it’s not yet known when the rest of the world will get in on it. It’s also worth noting that the other variants in the Xperia Z5 family — the Xperia Z5 Compact and Premium — aren’t yet included in this round.
That said, it shouldn’t be long before more regions and more devices are hooked up, so be patient. As for those on Turkey with this phone, be sure to check for your new goods over-the-air.

As I said: no proof. Just read the "Z5 Marshmallow update" post and go a little backwards.
Transaction of above link
Good news comes from Turkey, namely the Facebook profile of the company. It appears that it started rolling out the Android 6.0 Marshmallow for the range Z5 . At the moment there seems to be a bit 'of traffic on servers but the OTA was sent and so it is only a matter of hours or at most a few days.
Turkey Sony also confirmed the update scheduled for February for Xperia Z2 also imagine for Z3 series. We'll see if after Turkey will follow European markets such as Italy
Sent from my E6683 using Tapatalk
Fake
The source is a Sony Turkey fanpage, the first time that I've read this new was on January 21th. And I was verifying all days at XperiFirm without finding anything, so I dare to say that is a fake.
This info isn't from an official Sony Facebook page. It's a Turkish fanpage. Everyone can open a fanpage like this!

I hope they are right. It's the last time for the update to be pushed out. Since the beta has been out for quite a while, I guess, we could get the final build very soon.

Payoff would be very low
Just doesn't make "business" sense, to release Oreo, on older units, right before you release your brand new model.
Would be "nice", but I just can't see them doing it from a business perspective. Realistically, I don't see it coming to the
older units OFFICIALLY until around the Christmas holiday time frame, if that soon.
If "older" flagship does not receive android update, that would not generate much trust from consumers in company to buy new phone.
At the very least let us get EMUI 5.1 on our Mate 9.

That's your opinion, mate, but I truly disagree.
Many customers pay attention to new software features that improve the overall user experience (see Android's doze improvements) and that are not related to hardware.
So, IMHO Huawei's hurry to release Mate 9's Oreo beta BEFORE Mate 10's release seems to be all about customers confidence-making

That's silly to say the least, a phone isn't about software, I would buy the mate 10 if I could, even if I had 8.0 on the Mate 10. This argument is invalid, to me at least...

whoa, from your example it is clear that you missed the point completely.

Yeah kinda sounds silly when I read it now, what I meant was, it's not all about software updates, ffs, the mate 9 is the best phone I've had until this day, why whine about not having O or P or whatnot. Of course I love new updates with new functions, used to be an update freak, not anymore I guess.
