It’s no secret we love Android. That’s why every one of our Moto phones is built on a foundation of pure Android - it’s easier to use, delivers amazing performance and lets you choose how you want to use your phone. So we have more sweet Android news to share...
When a new version of Android is announced, one of the first questions on everyone's mind is "when will my device be getting updated?" Fortunately, Motorola has moved towards complete transparency and providing timely updates over the past couple of years, and with the announcement of Lollipop it is providing details on what Moto owners can expect in the coming weeks.
That the Moto X, G, and E are all getting Lollipop is probably a good sign. Here's what the Official Statement Reveals :
Once Android 5.0 L is officially released, we intend to bring this latest upgrade to many of our other Motorola devices, as well. This includes Moto X (1st and 2nd Gen), Moto G (1st and 2nd Gen), Moto G with 4G LTE, Moto E(yaay !! ), Droid Ultra, Droid Maxx and Droid Mini.
Motorola is fantastic.... it updates even a very much low end Phone i.e Moto E to Lollipop. Cheers Moto !!
Don't Forget to Press THANKS.... It never hurts to click THANKS !!
Happy to hear that. Thanks for the information. Now the question is when do we expect it?

Today i saw the moto spotlight in moto x.
Its really awesome.
I contacted the moto support they said its not support in our device.
Do somebody have a solution for this.
Spotlight is greate.
And then today I see this on google now
http://www.phonearena.com/news/Flipkart-lists-third-generation-Motorola-Moto-G_id69291
Its not even been a year and they release a 3rd gen model... I mean to say why is motorola in a hurry to realease things... Infact a 3rd gen moto x is also rumour. What are views on it guys.
Makes no sense for me. If they go on like this we have the Moto G 43th Gen in 2 or 3 years
Maybe Motorola thinks everyone buys the next Gen just for one or two specs (like LTE) and maybe they are right? I don't know. Otherwise they could have built LTE right from the start in the 2nd Gen and release a 3rd with really NEW features.

xD Lol
Thats not the case or else i would have bought moto x 2nd gen
Moto g 3rd gen is a better option
This may be because there are already some better smartphones launched in the market after moto g 2nd gen. Motorola wants to stay in market and provide better option to the customers. Moto g 3rd gen is really better than most of the smartphones in the same price range. You can see the specs of Moto g 3rd gen here. They are really good.
Those specifications are completely not the right ones.... Actually Moto 3rd gen looks like not a big improvement and it still will have only 1GB of RAM..
The specs from GSM Arena are just rumored specs that were launched before the actual details being leaked. A more accurate representation is posted here. Also here you can find a more detailed presentation of the topic at hand.
Wish Motorola would devote as much energy to prompt updates to fix crucial bugs as they apparently do in pushing new models onto the market. I guess they're probably not alone in that, though.
28th July is looking interesting
Edit..
Posted before reading the links above oops
I know Everybody is eager as Android M is just launched. But people going to ask about it still anyhow. So i am opening this thread to DE-clutter other lollipop Threads with the Android M stuff. You can ask anything you want.... All info is really appreciated.....
It will be ported guys. I guarantee it.
That would be great

When i was in HTC community there were lot of ports of ROMs but here in moto g original development is way too good. So we basically don't need ports. It will be great to see how 1 GB roms will going to handle new M
I'm wondering if the Low-Power 'Doze Mode' requires specific hardware, such as low-power cpu cores. If this was the case; the feature would not function on Moto G.

I think that it will be just a new driver for power management. Now let's wait for Motorola confirmation about Moto G and Android M. The rumored launch is in august and august is in the Q3 2015 (July -> September). The bad thing is that Google doesn't upload the developer preview code to AOSP so no costum ROM till release date just ported apps.

Nah, i don't think so, because nexus 6 doesn't have an LP core, so that would be total nonsense from google.

I read its only effective on shelf devices particularly tablets which are left idle for a lot of time
So its benefit on a smartphone is very little

I totally agree with what you have to say lets wait for Motorola to confirm but I really have my doubts if we'll get it, but if somehow the Moto G 2nd gen gets it there is a chance that it could be back ported to our devices

Yes I don't think our device has any chance of getting it but 2nd gen may get it.
And as for the porting someone , may be @lost101 will surely port it to device
And if someone doesn't port, no need to worry as our device is officially supported by CM
At least gpe edition or moto g 4g edition will get it
As gpe is supposed to get updates for 1.5 yes
But it may expand to 2 yes
Don't worry our moto g is immortal
Will get updates every time
Chill
Was talking to a support rep on the Motorola website, he said we would get it!
I was amazed that he would already have that information and that they would be giving it out already, so il take it with a pinch of salt, but it sounds good to me at the same time.

Think a jar of salt would be better needed than a pinch .....moto reps are notoriously unreliable for update info .... but we're bound to get a few ports
Here we go again. People pestering support rather than using support for ermm... Support!

they are just customer care representative. They are not like DELL technical care who can let you sort out everything. The companies keep this kind of things top secret. So stop asking them they don't know anything about it...:good:
Well i suppose it is doing something with wakelocks

at the time of writing this the android police link was offline. But if that has something to take with minimizing the wakelocks feature when the phone kept without use for longer periods, its nothing but they tweaked the activity manager. I discussed that with one developer he said let the source come then he can tell something about it. But he said it is not very big thing.... But who knows what is under the hood..
Nexus has got developer preview of M, my friend told nothing so exciting except some addons. i wonder is our Falcon able to handle M
dudes and dudettes, falcon and peregrine are 2 years old devices, I highly doubt that we get another update. Has been enough for a medium-end device, time to go to CM
To state some facts: (Assumes Android updates are only provided for 2 years)
Moto G (Falcon) went on sale in November 2013 (Update support ends November 2015)
Moto G GPE (Falcon) went on sale January 2014 (Update support ends January 2016)
Moto G 4G (Peregrine) went on sale June 2014 (Update support ends June 2016)
Moto G (Titan) went on sale September 2014 (Update support ends September 2016)
Historically Motorola releases new versions of Android first for Moto X during November, then Moto G, in December. I would not be surprised to see an Android M release for Moto G GPE in Novemeber 2015.
From what I have seen of Android M; I suspect there will be no issue with 'Falcon' hardware being able to run it as fluidly as Lollipop. Also Moto G (2015) (Titan) has identical hardware for the most-part.
Android M (6) "Mentos Edition" Lol

I agree 100%. It's BS that Motorola won't update this phone. It is a 2015 model and only 7 or 8 months old. A good point was made in your link. All the Android One phones are supposed to get 6.0 per Google so I'm curious if Motorola will use Ram amount as the excuse.
edit... Well, I see that on the Android One site Google says... * UP TO 2 years* so I guess some Android One customers might be upset soon.
Buy Motorola they said...
Quick updates they said...
In the meantime we're stuck at 5.0 Lollipop

LOL. XT1524 did not get any update since release and no upadates after just 8 months on the market? This company is the worst phone manufakcurer ever. :/ If it is really true, Moto E 2015 was my first and the last Motorola.

it's not google's motorola anymore...
I've bought this phone because I though it will have support... at this price point I could have lg with some simmilar specs, maybe it won't have update but at least it has flashlight on the back
I know it is not Google's phone. Other manufacturers support their devices for at least a year or more.

I mean that when motorola was in the Google's hands every phone was updated but things has changed after lenovo bought moto
btw lmao my old galaxy tab 2 had more updates than this motorola (4.0>4.1>4.2)
I'm really upset. I have XT1524 European model and it only had a Wifi patch, it wasn't even an update. I only bought Motorola because of updates, if the list is not updated I'm never going to have Motorola again. There's a lot of cheaper and better alternatives.

2015 Moto X Style (3rd gen)
