If you are S=OFF, you can flash the leaked firmware and the stock 5.1 rom and it will be as if you took the ota (and much more).

Can you use the newer firmware (vzwm9ota5_1firmwareTWRP2864.zip) with M9 original 5.0.2 stock rom?

No, you will get instant boot loops.
May I ask why you would want to run a new firmware and not the new ROM?
Old habits die hard: on the M7, newest firmware worked with most rom verisons.
The M9 is different, as I'm learning. Thanks for the answer..
I think the next M9 Verizon OTA will be 2.6.605.12. Been testing that ROM out and it's pretty solid. They definitely have the camera software updated; took some fantastic macro images with it yesterday as "reference" images for another handset I'm testing.

No; I don't really have the software (or software platform) to play with RAW images. I just took a few; the interface is pretty decent. A lot easier to adjust settings manually. Admittedly, the lack of OIS somewhat offsets the ability to do RAW. I still much prefer the M9 camera to my M8. Not even a close call there.

I felt the same way, when I was initially testing 5.1 and couldnt get deodex to boot, I decided to go back to my 5.0.2 ROM, and had to flash back to 5.0.2 firmware due to boot loop issues.

Macro is definitely the one thing I notice. My rezound used to take stellar macro pictures so I keep doing the keyboard photo test on this phone to compare and it is getting much better for sure

I ran the new firmware with Viper 2.3.1 (which is 5.0.x based). I didn't have any boot loops, but it did randomly reboot a few times. It wasn't a full reboot either - it only took ~15 seconds, so I think it was more like a Sense reboot and not the full ROM (??).

We have these things called "NDA's", and I need to adhere to it as in between ROM flashes I practice law.
I have seen a reference (can't remember where) to a Sense 7.1 ---- wonder if that's what it's about. Might have just been something I misread without my reading glasses on.
And, FWIW, there is a small clique of testers who are in regular touch (I'll let them out themselves) and that's how you see some things pop up so fast.....they're ready to roll as soon as devices are public, so the NDA no longer bars release.

Right, and technically, I play pretty close to the limits. I didn't talk about the hardware until the hardware specs were released, and I haven't talked about software until it's been released. I've also qualified a lot of my posts with "I suspect," or "I expect" when I actually knew. For instance, there were lots of rumors about what the M9 would look like while I had one in my hand from January on. All I would post (until the release) was a variation on "I don't think so."
They see us testers as somewhat evangalistic, which is probably accurate. I won't criticize a device prerelease because it could always get better. But ask me anything about the M8, which I've had since release date last year, or the Desire 612 which I tested last summer, and I won't hold back.

So, just for curiosity sake, how did you end up pretesting m9 and roms specifically. Did you have a golden ticket, or did they ask you, do you work for Verizon or HTC. Just curious, nothing else

As much as I hope it is released for our phones, a single person who does live chats all day may not be the most rock-solid source. Any number of things could turn out to have happened, from misreading an information sheet before giving you said information to her being just plain wrong.
Thank you for posting this though, it is important that up to date information like that is made public. Its just that I'm not sure if one representative saying it is on its way is a complete confirmation.
Does anyone know how reliable these live chats usually are?

Not very reliable in this case since they are not allowed to give too much information out to the public. I posted a thread after I talked to one of Samsung's live representatives and they told me that the update would come in a matter of weeks. You can check my thread out if you want.

I'd love for this to be true. I'm holding off on updating to a custom rom in case they push KitKat and it doesn't work after using the stock restore posted.

I was talking with AT&T repair regarding my phone freezing when switching from portrait to landscape since the 4.3 OTA and they told me they were not aware of a fix coming out for this, but that 4.4 will probably come out in a couple months and it may replace whatever is causing the problem. When I went to the Samsung Experience center to let them force the OTA onto my phone again to see if that would fix the issue, that tech said the same thing about 4.4 coming out, but he thought my freeze issue is hardware related.

Make sense since S5 will be release in April so they can bust sell of S5 before they let us have it KitKat on S3.

Kit Kat does bring down memory usage, so if you use or want some of the S applications and features that Touchwiz has, you should see better performance due to released memory.
Theoretically that is, I've been on CM11 nightlies for awhile now.

According to Sammobile and Phone Arena, Samsung is going to skip the 5.0.0 update and jump straight to 5.0.1. I'm wondering if this will cause a delay in us getting Lollipop?

The article states the Note 4 is skipping 5.0.0 and going to 5.0.1, NOT 5.1....
If we have to wait for 5.1 then that will seriously push the timeline back as the carriers will have to wait for 5.1 in late February and then begin their testing and modifications...

To be honest, they probably had issues with Lollipop on the Note 4, therefor had to update it. I've seen this a lot with companies getting to far ahead of themselves. Let's just hope Samsung makes the proper choice before the carriers f*** it up even more.

Not sure where the "they had problems" wild guess comes from...
However, 5.0.2 is now available. Seems like Google is addressing any 5.0 issues reasonably quick. I have to imagine that the port from 5.0 development to 5.0.2 is not too hard. Intigrating the samsung code over whatever version of android is out at the time is more than likely the way it will roll. At this point it could even be 5.0.3 or .4

Did anyone see this? Looks promising, i hope a dev can make a stock rooted version!
To be honest, id probably flash that update. Im in Israel and i have yet to find someone with a Java card here. Stock isnt horribleeeee but i miss Cyanogen/AOSP
Stock isn't bad at all if you disable all the crap. I'm pretty much resigned to the fact we're not getting root.
I have root. Dottat is only an inbox message and a shipping charge+donation away.
Ok, a hundred people or so will have root. Which means there's not a whole lot of development that will be happening, so I'll just live with stock.

I disagree, it takes time to get things going. Most the Developers (that I know of anyway) that are on Verizon have gotten their phones S-OFF, and are working hard to bring us the goodies. It will only get better from here, and those who are patient enough or don't feel like shipping their devices, will have all the goodies waiting for them, as we are working hard getting the ball rolling. It will only keep getting better and better. Even if SunShine NEVER brings support to Verizon, their any many amazing people with Java Cards who are 100% trustworthy and depending how you ship your device it can be back the same week. (I personally sent my phone out with $400 insurance on a Monday, and the phone was back in my hands by Wednesday - It was on it's way back to me with a tracking # before I even had time to see if the phone had made it!) 100% worth it, and thank you again @dottat!

When the hell is the European unlocked model getting Nougat? Its supposed to be "on the way" the past 2 months and still no update whilst the US has it and is already preparing for 7.1 . Gettin fed up at this stage! One of the reasons i bought the phone was because HTC seemingly are quick with the updates

LOL !
Most Android OEMs are similar in one way or another. Interesting thing is that average consumers usually don't care about these updates as we do. I have Moto X 2013 and when Motorola said that they will not upgrade this phones passed Android 5.1, I decided not to buy Moto products again and I didn't. Another phone I had was Xperia Z3 Compact and with Android 5/5.1 there should of been VoLTE support, but it never came to my unlocked unit and I too said that will not purchase another Sony phone and kept my word. It doesn't really matter if we turn our back on HTC and get another brand, we will face the same problem again. I do have HTC 10 myself, but it is sim free US version and only couple of weeks ago found out that EU version is lagging behind in software updates.
I was pissed off so converted my Taiwanese HTC 10 to US unlocked and voila!

I consider that border line insulting (I don't want to get an infraction for writing down what he deservs). Anyway, old story, it's gonna happen with every update Google rolls out, and we can't help that. There should be a complaint thread for those people to write what ever they want, so they don't spam "our" threads [emoji4]
so do something about it. I was tired of waiting for bell to release it so... unlocked my phone to US and did the update. My battery life doubled pretty much and it's because of the WiFi drain on 6.0.1 stock rom that's not present on nougat

When the hell is the European unlocked model getting Nougat? Its supposed to be "on the way" the past 2 months and still no update whilst the US has it and is already preparing for 7.1 . Gettin fed up at this stage! One of the reasons i bought the phone was because HTC seemingly are quick with the updates

If you want it that badly then there are WWE RUU's, you don't even need s-off.

Be polished please... I just came here to look the subject and you are aggressive.
Stop be a jerk.
According to LlabTooFeR the European Nougat releases are genuine but leaked so no ota.

My battery life has actually been worse since flashing the WWE RUU. My recommendation is (as annoying as it is) to wait.

I'm not a jerk and certainly not polish. Don't insult me !
Even the WRITTEN XDA RULE is to SEARCH (and yes there is a function for that) before posting.
So don't blame me but XDA for making that rule !
Bye and good luck
Instead of doing the typical british thing of complaining, I just converted my phone to US and installed the RUU and converted back to WWE afterwards. And then the Nougat custom ROMS came along, so I went back to LeeDroid Although I did tweet at HTC to ask if they knew when, they just told me "Software updates are created by Google and are distributed by carriers to phone users" ... at which point I said "I dont think carriers do WWE/International/Unlocked. And Google don't make the updates for HTC specifically" ... I never did get a reply.
Full OTA's and full images are available. There is currently only one version. Nothing specific for US carriers.
Verizon one is November. I only see one full image and one OTA

You are right. Going to edit my OP.
Consolidating the images is expected at some point. Question is did they consolidate or have the just not yet posted the others.
I am going to sit tight for a bit a see what happens.
Looks like I can try it. Mine starts with SQ1D.
didn't fix my WiFi 6 connection issue(s).
Great isn't it in that US Pixels are mostly ok yet they focus on updates for them while elsewhere like in Europe its freezing and cutting out
Sideloaded it. Let's see what happens

No.
I'll be keeping an eye on this thread. I'm holding out for a few days to see what new issues Google created
Ok I'll give it a try.
Side loaded it. Seems snappier

Thanks for the heads up.
Flashed, rooted and good to go so far.
So I lied when I said I would wait a bit. I have sideloaded, still very early in my testing but it is ok so far.

We don't know which area this release is targeted at, we are guessing. Possible guesses:
1) It is for US and EU
2) It is for EU, US to follow later
3) It is for US, EU to follow later.
My guess is 1.
Normally, I'd be all over this, but with such a vague listing, I'll wait it out a little.
Well at this rate my P6P will be on eBay soon, can't be doing with much more freezing and bad signal
Is this the same update that I've just received which is about 41.3mb?
