System Update Available

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.

is there a root method for turbo 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.

update

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.

Fortunately the update can be downgraded if needed. It has already been successfully done and posted in another thread.

Maybe I changed, but this is a good thing. I'm all about security these days.
Root means more toys and freedom for people, but they don't realize the s#@tstorm they potentially bring upon themselves.

Yep, curious myself too....

Well I'll tell you this. It asked if I wanted to participate in VoIP testing and I didn't want to and my survey ended.

did the same.

There is no way they are updating the Droids to Lollipop before last year's Moto X or the Turbo.
If I were a betting man, I'd bet it is some sort of minor bug fix update for VoLTE or something. Maybe an update to add full Moto Voice stuff?

Maybe they can make the phone not sound like crap/cut out on 50% or more of calls?

Must be your area/reception? I've personally never dropped a call in the year I've had this phone.

This suggests the update could be 5.0.1. It also might be a pre-release in order to get the device ready. Guess we will find out soon enough.

This one wasn't LP ... Honestly not sure what changed but my update is running smoothly

Mine is downloading the update right now. It says its only 53 MB so it can't be too much.

Got mine updated. Now to see what changed.

I'm not part of the soak but my maxx shows the update as available. Any word on if there are any problems for people who unlocked with sunshine?

Yes, looks like an update to fix bugs in the last update (though I personally was not having any problems). I don't really notice any difference so far.

It's a straight link to apkmirror. The link works fine, just google search to download the apk. Its no longer in the galaxy apps you have download it from a third party that's why the link is there

Oh I have the apk installed, I grabbed it from your post, its when I launch the program I get "Server error. try again later."

It just let me register finally.

You have be approved to get the update once you register. Don't know how long it takes, a friend from the Uk said it took two days but who knows, there should be a firmware update soon. Hopefully i can get my hands on it.

Yeah patiently waiting here. Ill upload the screenshots I found so people can get a hint on what to expect

Good news everyone just received the update notification, its around 1505.20mb
Make sure you keep checking your settings system update !!
Pretty sure it will be a firmware download sometime soon, if I do find one ill be sure to upload it for those who don't want to wait.

A firmware download would be great

Alright I got it to register late last night, this morning I did a manual update (saw it suggested somewhere) and I am not on Nougat, Woot if your registration is complete check for updates manually.

I was able to update guys. FYI, you have to manually update in your phones settings, not through the app.

Installed and booted. First boot was unresponsive, so restarted and everything came up fine. Had a warning about themes being incompatible, but that was it. A couple apps auto updated and we're smooth now. Developer Menu is already enabled. New notification shade is slick, but will take some configuring to make usable. Icons are way too big and notification cards are really large. Will get screenshots once I get into work.

Android Messenges For Web? Have yet to get the update...

Hey all, long time since i've posted.
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!

I haven't seen it yet.

I have it works fine.

I received the update today it's working great

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/

is this carrier specific? I'm on straight talk and i got the update, but no option to enable it.

Got the update this morning.
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

I got the notification today. Running beta 2 on Android p
