Android Auto on Marshmallow vs Lollipop - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4

Does anyone else use Android Auto on their Note 4? I updated to Marshmallow before buying a car that has Android Auto built in, and I can't get it to work. The android auto site specifically mentions trouble with Samsung phones on Marshmallow working with Android Auto, and that there's a software update from Samsung that should fix it.
I really like the new Marshmallow update, but seeing as how we just got Marshmallow, does that mean it's either 5.1.1 with Android Auto, or Marshmallow with no support?
NEVERMIND! Turns out the EPH7 update fixes Android Auto. Psyched!!!

Nexus 7 w/ LTE - Still on 4.4.4; Update to 5.1

Hey folks,
Somehow my 2013 Nexus 7 w/ LTE got skipped on updates. It is still running 4.4.4. This is even after a device reset recently, which I thought may "kick" the update to occur. It is not rooted or running any custom ROMs. So I will just need to do this on my own. I bought the device directly from Google and had it on the Verizon network for the last year or two, if that means anything.
So now I am looking to manually update it to 5.1 and beyond.
1) Will I be able to go directly from 4.4.4 to the most recently 5.1 release (I saw something with a Stagefright fix was recently release by Google), or will I need to go from 4.4.4 to 5.0 to 5.1?
2) Should the directions to install the releases be similar to those I frequently see that explain how to install a new update before Google OTA's it?
Thanks for the assistance!

Can you force Android Wear 1.4?

I'm trying to update my Moto 360 (1st Gen) but it just won't, it's been over a week so is there anyway I can force 1.4? I tried using the methods that worked for 1.3 but still nothing.
Nothing here, my watch show 5.1.1 and system updated. My phone is on 5.0.1 version. Could this be a problem? Should I update to 5.1.1 on phone ? Think that google recognize my system as not in 5.1.1 and cannot upgrade the watch to 6.0.1 unless I install 5.1.1 on my galaxy
Why don't you just wait until it is pushed?
Features like Doze and new ambient mode makes me want asap

Your watch can of course have a higher android version than you phone and they can still be compatible with each other.

Downgrading from Oreo back to 7.0 Nougat

So, I currently have a samsung s7 active that I purchased used, unlocked but was using AT&T with the AT&T firmware on itat the time. I upgraded it to Oreo universal firmware
It's currnet running info is
Baseband: G891AUCS5CSB1
Android Version: 8.0.0
Samsung Experience version: 9.0
Android security patch level: February 1, 2019
How would I go about downgrading back to Nougat but the Universal firmware?
I'm quite new to the android system, and all the guides seem to have different steps to use and there seems to be a million firmwares for each version.
I was looking at the thread linked here, and there seems to be 3 of the same firmware that are all different somehow???
What would be the best, easiest, and quickest firmware to use and guide to follow? I want to go back to Nougat with the universal firmware and my phone to remain unlocked of course
any help is greatly appreciated. thanks!
the problem with this dam phone is the locked bootloader! snapdragon samsung sucks... PLUS it was exlusive to ATT
such a shame. a phone with an AMAZING camera even today and the BEST design for its time... only to be locked to AT&T, LOCKED snapdragon and really ****ty stock software super lame
because of this I'm not sure the thing can be downgraded
Hello, is that the case then? That the S7 Active can't be downgraded back to android v.7 Nougat ? I'm hoping that it can, as AT&T just forced the v.8 Oreo into my S7 this morning, and now I no longer have the very useful 'Usage Manager' app. =( I used it more than any other app, to enable/disable mobile data on the fly, and kill all running apps in background, etc etc.
Please let it be..... downgradable !=(

Which version of Android ? 4.4 or 5.1 for mtcB/C ?

I recently had to learn a lot about my old headunit because it suddenly did not boot.
I tested both Android 4.4 and 5.1 on my car stereo. But many links are disabled
I currently have ROM 4.4.4 of the rooted version of malaysk and it has a good speed, but some software no longer supports Android version 4.4.4 like waze
Some users have said that by installing the rooted version of Android 5.1 and removing a series of default programs, the ROM speed will be adjusted and maybe even faster than Android 4.4.4.
I have now found three versions of Android 5.1.1:
1- Factory version 5.1.1
2- custom version of malaysk user
3- Custom version on another site called booroondook
I installed the factory version and the speed was slower than version 4.4 and it was slower when opening the software. The amount of memory available in this version is low and with the installation of several software errors can be seen filling memory.
Using rooted versions increases the available memory as well as the ability to delete additional programs
Are custom 5.1 ROMs faster than the factory and good stability?
If yes, which ROM?
And finally, did anyone like me have the problem of not connecting to the iPhone 12/13 hotspot in version 5.1 of Android or not? Because this problem does not exist in version 4.4. ...
I tested the custom ROMs 5.1.1. There was a problem not connecting to the iPhone 13 hotspot in all ROMs.
Finally I installed ROM 4.4.4 micro g version
Very good speed
Increased internal memory
Beautiful appearance
Rooted
No problem connecting to iPhone 13 hotspot
Very light Of course,
in version 5.1.1 the malaysk ROM was faster But there is still a radio problem in ROM 4.4.4 ، 5.1.1
