Randall Stephenson needs to go. He is the worst. The lack of timely updates on AT&T for HTC devices is intentional. The last official AT&T update was 4.4.4 at the end of January, it was 7 months late, and others were getting LP already. The prior update was in May 2014. That's 9 months between updates for a 1st year flagship phone! 4.4.4 was an important update for security and they had no problem letting that one be delayed for months after the failed and abandoned 4.4.3 roll out. They basically said, we don't care about fixing it and just pulled it. Anyone who has bought an AT&T HTC phone has been lied to and defrauded by AT&T. 90 days max to deliver new packages from Google? Haha what a joke! Under the table payoffs from Samsung maybe? Hmmmmm........

This has become so unacceptable at this point. How long will we have to wait until ATT rolls out LP 5.1? Thank Randall Stephenson. Moron extraordinaire. Thanks a lot Randall. I wish HTC had the balls to stand up to ATT and demand proper support for their phones.

If you guys need something to do while waiting for Lollipop, you can play Block Breaker on your DOT case... :rolleyes:
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] LondoJowo:
Looks like Lollipop 5.01/5.02 doesn't support VoLTE and it was part of the recent 4.4.4 update AT&T pushed out. According to Android Central Motorola will be skipping the 5.0x and going with 5.1 on the Droid Turbo due to the amount of work to back porting VoLTE support to 5.0x. Seems like it wouldn't make sense to take away something recently added to the phone's capabilities just to push out a newer OS.

Seems like HTC is pissed at AT&T as well.

Typo in link and story, m9 should be m8.

This is what happens when someone (Randall Stephenson) who isn't qualified to manage a fast food restaurant, is allowed to run one of the biggest telecommunications companies on the planet. Garbage in, garbage out.

Remember, he is responsible for the failed T-Mobile merger that cost AT&T 4 Billion dollars in penalties and fines. He then received a 10+ million dollar bonus.

If anyone else lost their company far less, they would be FIRED!

Buy 1 share of AT&T stock, show up at next shareholders meeting, and demand he be FIRED! Enough of these morons ruining the world because they are "entitled" to be mega rich. How about we put the right people in the right positions so we can actually move FORWARD!

I wonder what the general time frame has been getting from stage 3 to stage 4? Any idea on what the other carriers took to do that?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] c5satellite2:
Verizon's m7 has been stage 3 for almost a month now if that is of any help. Verizon's m8 was in the same stage for a few weeks before going stage 4.

We can only hope that our m8 LP comes before April at this point and it's not like 4.4.3 where they pull it day 1 and we were forced to wait 4 or 5 months for 4.4.4.

I can just imagine how long we will have to wait for 5.1 and sense 7!

They really need to address this. We were promised timely updates within 90 days. We have received 2 updates in the last year. 4.4.3 was late, crashed and burned day 1, was pulled and never fixed. In January we got 4.4.4, months late, and yet again LP is late. First year flagship, 3 strikes. Are we wrong to complain? We bought a flagship phone and we haven't received timely updates as promised, not one, not two, but 3 times now. HTC needs to step up and read AT&T the riot act already.

OTA package can ONLY be used to update the Rom it was made for. They are carrier specific, Rom specific and firmware dependant. OTA only updates certain things, full RUU contains all partitions.

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] c5satellite2:
May 4 will be 90 days for LP 5.1

What are the odds that HTC delivers it on time?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] GrandAdmiral:
I'll always contend that the problem is less HTC and more AT&T. If the update isn't delivered it's because of Ma Bell...
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] c5satellite2:
Agreed, but still unacceptable. HTC needs to read them the riot act already and deliver as promised. Considering LP 5.0 has a lot of inherent issues, it should be a high priority to get 5.1 out asap.

And considering Google delivered 5.1 in early February, HTC should have just dumped any 5.0 development and moved straight to 5.1. ATT didn't get 4.4.4 until that time anyway, the LP 5.0 problems were already known at that time and 5.1 was available.

90 days has not been met with the ATT M8 since the May 2014 update. It's been over 1 year and they delivered on schedule one time, two months in. Since then, 4.4.3 was months late and abandoned day 1 due to bugs and never to be seen again, next update to 4.4.4 was many months late and dropped when LP should have already been out, LP was months late, and now 5.1 will also be late.

Also their comment that m7 will not get LP 5.1 is unacceptable. HTC stated updates for 2 years. LP 5.1 was made available by Google well within the two year window. M7 users will legally have a legitimate gripe if they don't get 5.1. They updated to a flawed 5.0, and won't update to 5.1 leaving M7 stuck on a flawed os? I have 2 M7's and I will hit the roof(as everyone else should) if they don't deliver 5.1 as they are required to based on their statement of updates for 2 years.

Too many promises that aren't being kept. Yes carriers cause most of the delays, but HTC needs to address all these issues because they are making the unkept promises.

I have recently upgraded to an XDA Orbit and have twice now had a lock-up

under the following circumstances: I removed the Orbit from the cradle in

pressed the GPS button to return to the today screen. I then locked the

handset and pressed the power button to turn the screen off before placing

in my pocket. On removing from my pocket again the power switch does not

turn the screen back on and the phone has to be soft reset.The only other

function active would have been the phone.

On reset the handset remains locked and has to be unlocked before entereing

the PIN code for the SIM.
