Earlier today Google released the coveted Android 6.0 Marshmallow factory images for the Nexus line of devices. While a good number of you out there are all about the Nexus and more than capable of installing the images on to your devices, there are still plenty of standard users out there who use other devices. If you are a T-Mobile subscriber then you might be curious as to which devices will be making the cut from Magenta. While the list might not surprise some, it is still good to have handy as a bit of a secondary confirmation. After all, a manufacturer could say they are going to make the update available, but it is still on the carrier to push it out.
In the case of Magenta they offer up a pretty nifty little page that keeps users more informed than some carriers out there. The page lists out devices along with the current stage of the update. It doesn’t offer up any time lines as to when an update is expected to move tot he next stage or when the update may become available, but if you check in frequently you could be surprised by a “Complete” status and begin mashing the update button.
Unsurprisingly we see the Nexus 5, Nexus 6
Samsung
- Galaxy S5
- Galaxy S6
- Galaxy S6 Edge
- Galaxy S6 Edge+
- Galaxy Note 4
- Galaxy Note 5
- Galaxy Tab S2
LG
- G3
- G4
- G Stylo
HTCÂ
- One M8
- One M9
Some devices, like the Galaxy Note 4, you see additional details. For instance, the T-Mobile Note 4 hasn’t seen Android 5.1.1 because it is skipping straight to Android 6.0.
I will keep my eyes peeled for all my Magenta sporting friends for updates to as many of these devices as possible. Hopefully they will all be coming sooner rather than later. However, we have seen some updates take quite a while in the past.
