HTC can't meet self-imposed deadline for Lollipop update

HTC was the first OEM to set a deadline for their Android update to Lollipop for the One M7 and M8. But it looks like they won't be able to meet their 90-day deadline. And they are placing the blame on Google.

According to HTC's Vice President of Product Management Mo Versi, Google had to address issues with the software release and they are trying to implement Google's fixes into the update but it won't be available for some of the carrier versions of the two devices. Versi added they will try to keep as close to the deadline as they can but he won't say when that may be.

Android Lollipop update for HTC One Google Play Editions gets delayed

A bit of bad news for those waiting for the Android 5.0 (Lollipop) update for the Google Play Editions of the HTC One M7 and M8 versions. The update is being pushed back a bit again. Mo Versi, vice president of product management at HTC, said there is another software version request, meaning more work still needs to be done until the update is released. Versi did promise its users though that they will let us know when the update is finally ready and that it gets its nod from Google.

Google starts Android 4.4.3 KitKat rollout

Google has finally begun rolling out the latest iteration of its mobile operating system to Nexus devices and a few Google Play versions of some OEMs. It’s no surprise the update arrives first to Google-owned or -managed devices. The update has shown up on Nexus 5, Nexus 7 (Wi-Fi version), Play editions of the Samsung Galaxy S4, HTC One M7 and M8, and Sony Z Ultra. The Moto X for T-Mobile is also getting the update first, the Moto G bought online in the US and in retail stores in Brazil, and the Moto E bought online in the US.

This minor update will have a new interface for the dialer, new colors, as well as additional bug fixes, security patches, and overall stability improvements. It will also reportedly fix the battery drain that happens when the camera is used.
