Google’s lineup of Nexus series devices have already been rolled out with their latest mobile operating system, Android 5.1 Lollipop.
Christian Post Report – The most recent update was for the Motorola-made Nexus 6 (codenamed Shamu) smartphones which are under contract with US mobile carrier T-Mobile.
Google/Twitter/ImageThe new OS versions however created confusion among users as a report from Tech Times indicated that the mentioned device will be receiving a different Lollipop update version which is labelled as LMY47M.
The first Over-The-Air update for Android 5.1, which was pushed out to smartphones and tablets all over the world, featured the build number LMY47D. The following days, Verizon announced that those Nexus 6 handsets operating under their service will be having the build number LMY47E.
The publication however revealed that that have been “no noticeable differences” between the roll outs for each respective carriers.
As stated, both feature the latest Device Protection security feature which locks the phone permanently unless the user signs in with his/her Google account. The lock-in would still function even if the phone is subjected to a full factory reset.
Several fixes also come along with the update which answers to the stability issues found in the previous Android 5.0.
There’s also the High-Definition Voice feature for the newest Lollipop that offers users greatly-improved voice-call quality.
T-Mobile subscribers, however, can enjoy the VoLTE feature for their Nexus 6 phablets. It would also enable them to connect to the network’s 700 MHz spectrum.
For those who will be upgrading, reports specified that they will need to free their unit’s storage space for up to 409 MB. Accessing the update is easy as going to the device’s About Phone section and then on the System Updates. Once in, they can tap on Check Now to download and install the Android 5.1 Lollipop update.
