T-Mobile USA LP OTA

Has ANYONE gotten it yet? I feel like I've been reading "You should get the OTA any day now" stories online for a couple months now, and still NOTHING! I am curious if ANYONE has actually gotten it that's on T-Mobile in the US.

You can rest assured that if it were available there would be a version of it posted here on xda. When it is it will be on here within moments of the devs getting their hands on it or anyone for that matter.

Have you read the correct ones vause what ive seen says that us carriers wont start pushing anything till almost march

The Galaxy S5 got the lollipop 5.0 update in the USA. Thanks LG, while you're busy releasing the update for users in Nigeria, the enthusiasts in the USA are still stuck on KitKat... mine boggling......

I'd not LG's fault. In the US the carriers test the software, have LG put their own software on the phone and then test done more. They are the cause if the delay, and with T-mobile they at have Wi-Fi calling so probably even more delay to test that.

Good to know, but I was wondering because I was going back to stock, but course leaving it rooted, but then there was an update. Was that the update that we're all waiting for? or is it just a minor update I think I saw something like 247MB don't know if thats correct but I was going to unroot my phone just to get that update, but thats not Lollipop right?

Alrighty then so... Thanks T-mobile....

I think that tweet from LG USA was designed to put pressure on the carriers to hasten the release. Unfortunately for LG this may backfire on them. Most people think phone manufactueres are responsible for timely release of updates. US carriers need to add their bloatware and wi-fi calling in T-mobiles case to the new update. LG's part is done. Call your local branches and bug the crap out of them.

What is so great about lollipop? Xposed doesnt work with it among other things. I would not update even if it was available right now.

Personally, I find it mind boggling that you would blame LG and not T-Mobile. Talk about blaming the wrong party.

Just saw news , sprint is getting on Feb 16. We might get before that

So I flashed my phone back to the M version for our phone and did the OTA to R. It said the R update is only available until Feb. 10 so it'll probably be shortly after that.

Id think thay would be a fair assesment. So before mar 1 we could plan to see a roll out or at least definite word

I would think this means the update is hitting phones on the 10th or 11th. Normally they keep the old update rolling until they hot swap with the new one. I would imagine only hours of downtime for updates if they don't hot swap. Then again some people still haven't received the ota notification yet... Who knows?

Sorry to kill the hype, but afaik that date doesn't mean anything.

And OTA rolls out in stages, that's why not everyone is getting the OTA notification.

HTC M8 is getting it on the 8th, so in this case the date mentioned sounds like it could be true

And yet there is no ETA for lollipop on the S5 (as for T-mobile variant). Judging the ETA for update for the LG G3 from the update intended for another device from another manufacturer is very immature.
Don't get me wrong, I would want 5.0 on my G3 asap, but I just want to point our that that date is irrelevant, just as the post from AP I linked suggested.

T-Mobile Publishes Software Update Tracker Webpage

http://www.droid-life.com/2015/02/2...le-publishes-software-update-tracker-webpage/
LG G3 is not listed.

Figures... Thanks for the link though

But no LG phones are listed, so it must be unlisted for a reason other than no update coming...

Nexus 6 isn't listed either. I'm pretty sure being omitted from that list does not mean the G3 isn't getting lollipop.

I am not quite sure as to how the LG G3 Lollipop update was left off of the list, but I am happy to report it is in the T-Mobile testing phase. And our testing is going really well. I will reach out to product development and try to get it added to the list. Thank you for pointing this out.

G3 is now listed as 'Manufacturer Development'.

Why on earth is T-Mobile just now in the testing phase when every other carrier has had a release. T -mobile is the new Verizon when it comes to updates, very sad. I expected more from the uncarrier.

Maybe they are trying to fix the roaming data connectivity issues wrt IPv6. See the old threads.

Could be, T-Mobile is the only carrier using IPV6 only on LTE (if I'm not mistaken). They could also have required VoLTE be working, so LG could be taking longer to make sure all this works. Still sucks that it's taking so long.

i had to move from a nexus 5 to a lg g3, what a regression when you see t-mobile slowing such updates!

I've been using a Moto X 2nd Gen. New job has the silly policy of not allowing rooted devices to access our craptastic Lotus Notes e-mail. The G3's KitKat build is unusable without root. Hoping Lollipop is better, otherwise the G3 will be finding a new home.

I tried. Didn't work. They use Airwatch and I couldn't get anything to fool it on the G3 while rooted.
But now that you pointed me to it again, I searched through the RootCloak thread and apparently there is a version of Airwatch that can be fooled. I'll have to try it and see if I can get it working on my G3. That would be awesome.

The answer is so simple...
There's developmental teams for each region and NOT all of them finish at the same time... The last responses shows how childish some people are. Some devices get finished on other carriers and some don't. T-Mobile isn't always the first and they are not always the last. You can say that with ANY carrier.
If manufacturers really wanted to fix this problem they should take away the carrier options they give them, and then have a single base phone so they only need to code for a single device(iPhone 6, and 6+ as an example they are all exactly the same). Of course device prices would get more expensive then people will complain how expensive they are while blaming the carrier for the prices.

The fact of the matter being LG had 5.0 in hand early to mid Q4 and many carriers were putting finishing touches on their certification by the end of the year. We are now 2 months in to Q1 and every carriers' update status has surpassed ours. When you say there are different development teams for each region I assume you mean domestically which makes perfect sense but isn't that a nice way of saying "we're not ready yet". I'm not one to usually ***** about updates because it makes things less enjoyable in most cases but I'm a little blown away. When I heard LG G3 was one of the first handsets scheduled to get lollipop I thought for sure T-Mobile would shine once more. I just need to modify my definition of "soon" because in T-Mobile's dictionary the definition is a month or more.

congratulations! pie for v35.

Congratulations ?! Official pie has been released for v35.

Guess this means we might see it here in NA in what, 5-6 months?

They won't release update to Q until they have released new 2019 and 2020 phones with Q. If you have Q in August 2019 on a year-old phone, you won't buy a new Q phone.
That's LG strategy for updates. You get Pie right before or while the new Q phones are being released. You're sure not going to get Q while new Q phones are being released.

Agreed. I just thought Google mandated this change on Pie. Samsung and OnePlus devices without notches and punches made the switch.

OnePlus 7T T-MOBILE Update Tracker

Hello All,
I wanted to make a post on Updates and when OTAs release for the OnePlus 7T T-MOBILE variant. Currently we are on 10.0.3HD63CB. We can use this thread to state when our variant gets an ota or Android version bump.
Off topic is ok, but please try to keep it minimal.
Edit: 11/9/19 OTA 10.0.4.HD63CB. Will share the link once i get it. If someone has it please feel free to share. I'll be more than happy to credit.

Just a quick question. Sorry if this is too far off topic. This is the first Oneplus phone I've owned. How are they for releasing timely updates? I'm coming from an LG V30 and I can pretty much imagine anything is better than LGs track record. Thanks in advance!

TMobile is the cause of only being somewhat better at updates. I've converted my T-Mobile 6t to international firmware, and it has received approximately 11 or 12 updates in the 12 months I've owned it, including being update to Android 10 over the weekend. I'm considering the T-Mobile 7t but I sure wish that there was an easy way to convert it like there was in the 6t

At least oxygen OS is pretty damn solid for a daily. I still mess with the v30 and 6t. Too bad I'm going to have to return the 6t soon since I jump upgraded. Time to wait for the next update. Fairly faster than the 6t when it comes to updates. If only they had a quad dac headphone jack

Question Poll only for non-rooted factory unlocked P6P owners running on any US carrier who received the December over the air update, not manually flashed

Background:
At least two or three folks in this section have mentioned that if you have the factory unlocked Google Pixel 6 Pro, and you're using the phone on a carrier in the United States, that you shouldn't be using the December "SQ1D.211205.017 — US carriers" firmware, and that you should be using the "SQ1D.211205.016.A1 — “Global” (including CA, TW)" firmware.
This goes against logic for me and also turns what looks like a simple answer into a complicated one. As I try to keep things simple, and several other of us users believe you should use the firmware that's designated for the area you're using the phone in. i.e. If you're on a United States carrier, use the "SQ1D.211205.017 — US carriers" firmware.
In the end, any firmware should work on any phone in any area of the world, however, it may work better when using the designated one for your area as the firmware should contain optimizations for the radio.img to work with carriers in your part of the world.
I asked @NippleSauce if they could share the source of this information, and the following is what they shared. If anyone else has any more or different light to shed on this subject, please post here about it too.

Only three responses so far, all for "SQ1D.211205.017 — US carriers", not counting the five "None - for those who accidentally answered and realized they shouldn't".

That is the answer I expected, and that has been my experience with all my previous purchased Pixels unlocked from the store. I saw the comments that you referenced in your OP and did not believe them to be correct.

Thanks! I'm always relieved to hear that something I always thought was simple can remain that way. I'm still hoping for some more responses, but it's only been one day.

just for reference, Im on AT&T.
had to manually start the OTA by mashing the check for update button, did not get a notification.
I am also of the opinion that you should (if you were to sideload) use the correct version for your circumstances. IE: the carrier version if you fit that criteria, as opposed to the global.

Thanks! At least mashing the button versus waiting for a notification shouldn't make a difference about which version you get.

No, its the same mechanism to get the file. The method will make no difference. Was just pointing it out as many never got a notification and obviously never got the update manually as it was halted pretty quickly. Was just dumb luck for me as I happened to check and got it.
I'd be willing to bet they didnt get the international version (sideloaded it), or maybe they are roaming here and got the file for their home region. I'd bet it is some weird edge case and that its not truly an unlocked device actually registered to a US carrier.

I wonder if the global version would help US models.
I doubt it. I'm not sure if anyone has a complete dump of all the different firmwares.

I am one of the ones that have a P6 Pro on the Global version which was automatically pushed to my phone here in the US. I am on MetroPCS which is owned by T-Mobile. Not sure why this version was pushed but it showed up on December 14th.
I see 2 votes there now so there must be another person with the same version as me that also got it.
