Can we not just share our experiences in one of the many other threads? Most of us have been running it for months anyway!
All I found was Dev Preview threads. Instead of digging through 100s of pages; thought we can discuss the clean build once we start getting it. Would be great to see when it actually starts rolling out and what difference / updates there are compared to the DP.

The question is... will Lollipop be released today? I hope in a few hours we can start with flashing
Do you think tha we get the update today for N5???
I read that the update will arrive for WiFi Nexus 7 and after some week for others devices..
Here is what Android Geeks are saying. Seems to be inline with other updates. Here's hoping we get it sooner than later!

Hi there.
The source in the Android Geeks story is the message Google sent to developers recently saying Android 5 will be released to consumers on Nov 3. What that means in reality is anyone's guess.
I'm in London UK with a Nexus 5 waiting for the OTA update too. Hoping it's today but certainly not holding my breath.
When anyone gets it please post here to keep us updated!

As I read in some news, YES.. because the final OTA ROM for 3g/4g devices need to be certificated.. so more time is required..
But I hope that the ZIP file will be released anyway...

Google doesn't bump kernel versions, the 2012 N7 is still on 3.1 and the Galaxy Nexus stayed on 3.0
NO THERE WILL BE NOT ANDROID LOLLIPOP TODAY !!! Google said that 3 of November we will get Lollipop for wifi devices and for gsm update will come later. SO STOP ASKING AND SPECULATING -.- It will be when it will be.

As we all know Google officially launched Android 4.2 on Monday the 29th of October, they updated the Android.com Website but there is no ETA for a Android 4.2 Update or Source Release on any of there Sites.
So if there is any you know, post here in this Thread to keep the Forums tidy! :good:
Android 4.2 will be released to AOSP and begin OTA rollout to current devices when the Nexus 4 ships or shortly thereafter.

Thanks to you both for a bit of polite sanity. I think it's great when folks get excited, some may ask obvious, and sometimes slightly pointless questions. But to become the master of the universe, and declare a thread should be shut down, is plain childish.
The only lesson worth learning if you are an ANDROID user is. Buy a NEXUS device. At least then you have a reasonably good chance of getting a timely update. So spare a thought for the folks who don't own a NEXUS device. LG Optimus 2X users (The world's first dual-core phone), are still running Ginger Bread. yikes.
Have fun. Anil

Nexus 7 will get 4.2 between 12-14. And I am sure we will get source of 4.2 on 11th.

4.2 will probably hit AOSP next week, before or around the release of the Nexus 4, custom ROMs will appear a day or two after and OTA for the factory image will be release a few weeks later.

To be fair you'll probably find if you order one from Google now it will ship with 4.2 on it, but if you buy one from a shop it obviously won't.

No, if you order it from google it still ships with 4.1.2
Has anyone gotten confirmation on when the 3G model will be released? Also, will it be released in stores or just Play Store?
I've read at many sites that it should be out on 11/13, but those sites also said the end of October a month ago. I also read a T-Mobile internal document that said there will be a 'T-Mobile SIM included' version, but that's going to be available only on Play Store. Another site said it will only be available with an AT&T SIM.
So.....a lot of conflicting information. I hope to pick up one a Sams Club on 11/13, but am not sure if that's going to happen.

To be clear, it is a rumored update. I've seen no actual reports just yet. Maybe later today.
Why would T-Mo post it on their support page if it was just a rumor? You even read the article? http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-5034
There is a chromium report from an user with the new JWR66Y version in a nexus 10:
https://www.google.es/url?sa=t&rct=...OOBjmrx6AgjprAmE1skg1jw&bvm=bv.50952593,d.d2k

The update is real. But whether it comes today is just a rumor. T-Mobile has been known to post docs well before software updates actually happen.
anyone know what the supposed "security fixes" are in this update?
Hopefully (would be nice, but not getting my hopes up) this small update will straighten out the issues between jwr and jss and give us a single 4.3 source to start fresh from here on out

I've been staying on Stock 4.2.2 for now, and have had a constant System Update Available notification to update to 4.3 but have been ignoring it. Just now I noticed the update notification disappeared, so I did a manual check for updates in Settings, and it tells me i'm on the latest version (4.2.2: JDQ39)
Do you think this is related to the new OTA update? I'm thinking they took the previous 4.3 off for now and are going to release the new one, but I could be wrong.

All devices aren't on JWR so it doesn't make sense because you don't want it to. New Nexus 7 is on JSS15J so this will bring them all on the same branch. The update isn't just for us.

This is the new Android 4.4 AOSP ROM, which was just recently published by PA, running on Nexus 4.
In the video I go through the new stuff that's been added to Android, including the new "Ok Google" feature.
I also ran benchmarks and the results were better than I expected!
Antutu benchmark score: 16867 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_8_I6xHiOk)
Quadrant benchmark score: 5042 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aQbUfnrwU4)
The scores will improve once Google released the official ROM with all the binaries and what not.

TToivanen is right, the battery stays intact as it only listens for the keyword while on the home screen.
Results should increase when actual 4.4 binaries/drivers+kernel is released with factory images.

According to Google's support policy, devices receive two years of support from their release date. The Nexus 6 won't hit two years until November 2016. So yes, the Nexus 6 should get Android 7.0. It should also receive Android 7.0 security updates for some time afterward.
Fortunately, these are Nexus devices. Custom ROM support should keep them going for much longer.
EDIT: @mikeprius beat me to it. LOL.
I made a mistake. It's 2 years for software updates, but 3 years for security updates.
My money's on yes
obvious answer is yes.. nexus 6 is still very capable.. probably until P..
