Didnt realize it would be a staged rollout....

I'm running CM-11, but I haven't seen it the update on Sammobile. I wouldn't think these sold in such numbers to warrant a staged rollout either, though.

Me either, all these sites say it released but no one that i talk to that has one has the update.... so are they just going by the samsung site that you have the link to? I was pretty amped earlier when i read about this then i cant get the update. Its just disappointing lol

I'm just waiting for root for it then I will update. I don't want to update and not be able to remove the crap I don't use. If I knew how to make a rooted version, I would do it but I don't know anything about development. Oh well, I guess the wait won't kill me.

Sammy Jumped The Gun
It is starting to seem as if Samsung jumped the gun on this one. I think they released it alright, but released it to TMO for testing, etc. I know quite a few people that have this exact same model on TMO and they all live in different areas of the country. Not one has received it. Samfirmware has no link for it, and they don't even mention it. And for the most part if there is a new version out, they know and quick. And of course 4.4.4 is not available in KIES.
This is why I believe Sammy sent 4.4.4 to TMO and not to us, or at least not yet. We all know how the carriers are. At this point I'd rather not have 4.4.4 and wait for 5.0, but it will be a very long wait, unless I go CM12 when it is stable...

You're using CM-11 for the P607T model of the tablet? I've been looking for months for ROMs but haven't found any that work specifically for the P607T, which is the Tmo variant of the tablet.

Those who have 4.4.4, can you still root with Towelroot?
I am contemplating buying the P607t, which probably will have 4.4.4 by now and would not buy it if there is no root for 4.4.4 that won't trip KNOX. I returned the Wifi version for this exact reason.

Thanks OP! I was thinking they were, but with how these things work, I didn't want to risk using a P605 ROM without confirming that. Because brick. :\

Yeah I flashed a few 605 Roms, your good!

Still no one got the update

Nope...
Nope, still no update. I stick with my previous assessment on the issue...

I think you are absolutely correct

I just got the 4.4.4 update

Received 4.4.4 update
Update rolled out to my device as well.
I went ahead with the update, since all I really used root for was Titanium Backup and ES File Explorer.
Failed first time (likely because of root)
Removed root (under Cleanup section of super su FULL Cleanup)
Second attempt succeeded.
Towelroot failed to reroot.
If you are dependent on root, don't update until there is a new method found. Looks like towelroot is plugged on this one.

I got the notification for the update this morning, holding off until someone can confirm root capability. As with any new update, we will need to wait until people can get their hands on it and mess around to see if rooting is possible.
What are your initial thoughts on 4.4.4?

I saw Motorola's blog post, but my device doesn't have anything available yet. As a matter of fact, I still don't even have the updated Google Calendar 5.0. I'd rather see the Play Store offer it than install the APK manually. Not sure when that will happen.

Keep checking. I have 2 on hand. One received it immediately, the other kept saying your device is up to date. Checked a short while later and it was there

Any word on if this official OTA will be pushed to those of us running the leaked .5 Lollipop build? Or will we still need to downgrade to stock 4.4.4 to receive the update? Thanks!

This is what I want to know too. I know it just started rolling out, but does anyone know yet?

You have no choice but to downgrade back to 4.4.4 using the images Moto released yesterday. Instructions are available throughout the threads here. There is not going to be a .5 lollipop to the final version. Nothing will come OTA to your device. I took the time last night to flash back.

Is that actually confirmed by Motorola? Seems odd they would offer a soak test and then tell all the testers to go back to 4.4.4 (which is far more challenging) to get the official update.

How much time for branded devices? I have an att dev.

I still have no update yet... Does the official OTA affected by the "root issue"? Also i'm curious if i will see OTA on my device if it's rooted?

If you carefully read my OP here, you'll understand the situation if you're on the .5 or .6 builds

looks like a new VZW OTA is out

Well it's that time again VZW put out a new OTA anyone taken this yet what does it fix and is it worth it and I think all of us will be wondering is will it lock your bootloader Its unlocked

Me too, I got an OTA notification today, update size is 823.5 MB, don't know what build it is.
I have VZ Pixel, unlocked, stock rooted NMF260 with VZ service. Is it safe to install updates ? Please advice.
Thanks in advance.

I think your safe I doubt Verizon would lock your bootloader. That would wipe your device again

@Shiftydogit, @azn6929 got hold of a screenshot? If yes, pls share.

As you can see OTA notification

My guess is it's probably another patch or possibly a kernel update who knows or bug fix one of the three

Here it is

So one of you said you are on nmf260. That is December. So i doubt this is a "new" update, you are just behind. Google only releases on the first Monday of the month. VZ uses the same exact releases. There is no special VZ version.
Update away.

That's the crazy part. It is the exact same as what Google released in December. The Pixel's are different...they are only using Googles updates. No changes, no bloat, no nothing.

They are at the link below, posted the first Monday of each month. Dunno how you get them on an unlocked phone, I know it is doable...just dunno how.

You'd just download them then sideload the OTA via recovery or you can flash it via fastboot/ADB but if you have TWRP installed fastboot will replace it with stock recovery

OK so with update my phone lost TWRP and root other than that bootloader is still unlocked and everything seems fine

Also build number changed after update OK then

If you are getting a new Verizon OTA, it is late. My Verizon Pixel updated to NOF26V (Feb security patch), weeks ago. NOF26V is the most current image for Verizon Pixels.

I updated. New build is NOF26V. Everything seems to be fine. But root is gone. lol

I just signed up for the beta and as of today there are 87 of 200 slots taken. I'm in Sweden at the moment.
No download or update yet, but that would take up to 2 weeks.
I'm used to rooting and custom ROMing my phones, but there are no options for this one, so the beta is the next best thing.

It would be nice if you can report back after some days regarding the battery, software, performance and camera.
I already tried to get the update through the beta program, but for me it says no project available. Maybe I can install it from FF, but I don't know if it will be good.
Thanks!

There is not much difference from the latest non-beta update. I would say that the phone is slightly less responsive than before the beta-update, especially when unlocking the phone with fingerprint.
I'm having a separate issue on the camera that was there pre-beta, so I can't give info on the camera.

I have been running the beta for 2 days and now suddenly the screen is unresponsive and the phone randomly reboots. Then suddenly it starts working again.
Anyone else experiencing this?
And does anyone know how to roll back to EMUI 5?

I've crawled the length and width of the internets and there is yet a way to roll back the beta. It's just too new.
I downloaded and tried to flash older firmware, but since the beta resizes the partitions, you can't do it anything until someone with more knowledge puts time and effort into sorting it out. I got as far as unlocking the bootloader but no further.
As for the random reboots, you could try a factory reset. You could also unenroll from the beta, although I was unable to, I think it's because I have an open ticket in the BETA app.

I dont think that is true, only a few carriers have implemented checks(AT&T for sure) to make sure you are using their sim before they let you download the update. It should not matter by region at all. The updates are pushed by IMEI series and not by geolocation.

I got the update today

Got the notice on my TMO running unlocked code today as well. Has anyone installed it yet? Any issues? How's battery life?

I am using on sprint, installed the OTA yesterday. My experience with battery life has been worse than the beta version I was on.

So is there a way to stop the update? I want to let it bake a bit. I thought I could go into Dev Options and disable Auto System Update but as soon as I got home and on WiFi it started downloading Oreo.
