4.4.2 as default

Yesterday I got my nexus 5 and it came with 4.4.2. During
initial boot it did not ask for any update or else. The power
adapter is british one.
Does somebody have the same version as default?
Best regards all.

Obviously as Android versions get released with "bugfixes", they start releasing them from the factory on the latest software build.
What is the *real* question here? I assume you were building up to a bigger question?

I think he is asking why his phone came with Android KitKat 4.4.2 and not a newer version.

I was distressed since everybody started with 4.4.
None reported upgrade from the factory. As you
might imagine, the fear wrote my post.
Best regards and thanks.

i think what hes saying is that his phone came with 4.4.2 while he read that other peoples phones came with 4.4(and were later updated to 4.4.2). he wants to know if others are running 4.4.2. and yes op, 4.4.2 is what you should be running right now.

Correct.
All of you have a phone with 4.4 from the factory. I am the only one
with 4.4.2. I was aware of that and wanted to know if I got faked or
old phone.
Thanks all for reply.

new phones come with 4.4.2 already installed. it really depends when you buy it. if you are reading online, you are probably reading something older.

Mine came in Thursday 4.4.2 installed.

I will order mine in a month and it will surely have 4.4.3

[Q] New nexus 5 not getting 5.0

Hi,
Just 2 days back I bought a nexus 5 and after unboxing, the software upgraded to 4.4.4. I am still waiting for the 5.0 update. Is this normal? I dont want to install any ROM or flash it. Does it take time for a new nexus 5 to get 5.0 via OTA?

Yes, it happens in batches. If you don't want to flash it yourself, you'll just have to wait.

Bro even I did buy a Google Nexus 5 a day ago and what was shocking to me is that it came preinstalled with android 4.4.4 and also I have not got the lollipop update

Why is that shocking? Do you think it just rolled off the production line or something?
It will have been made ages ago and just sat around in storage before you bought it.

Don't worry....it seems that Google removed 5.0 OTA.......i've the ota notification since a 10 days ago but now it says that my version is the last (4.4.4)
So it seems that is near to push 5.0.1 i think

They have not removed the OTA. It's delivered in batches. If you don't accept the update, you go to the back of the queue.

The queue waiting for 5.0. There is always a queue. Not all Nexus 5 have received or accepted the update. If you ignored the update, you go to the back of the queue whilst people who are still waiting for the update and actually want it, get a chance to download it.
Google servers cannot hit every device at once as there are too many. You get a notification when it's your time. Whilst your batch is having the notification, there are people in queue behind you. If you don't accept that update, you miss your slot and all the other people waiting get their chance. It will come back round to you again in time

Count yourself lucky..... ?

I received my phone today and I have the same issue; at least now I know that I'll have the possibility to update my phone in the future. Is there any difference between update it automatically or flash the update manually?

Why so? What is wrong with Lollipop? I used a N5 which had L that belonged to a friend of mine and honestly, was quite delighted by it.

I bought the nexus 5 today after Google announced production has stopped. Upgraded 4.4.2 to 4.4.3 to 4.4.4 but no 5.0. My nexus 4 received 5.0.1 today. Was wondering where is 5.0?

It's in space waiting for Optimus Prime.
Seriously though - this thread is not that long. Your question was replied to on the previous page already. Google sends updates in batches and not all at the same time. Not all N5s have received the update yet. If you are really anxious, just install the 5.0.1 factory image and stop waiting.

Stilla ota 5.0 for my Nexus 5 and it's january 5. Why is that?

It's january 5 and I still havn't got Lollipop 5.0 ota for my N5.
Am i the only one with this problem and why is it so? I'm a bit worried here.

Sideload it or flash a stock 5.0 zip. Worry over.

I haven't gotten it either. I think they stopped the ota updates due to bugs. I think they will begin again when 5.0.2 is ready (speculation) for our phones.

I was tired of waiting so i sideloaded ota 5.0. After that the ota 5.0.1 came directly.
Works perfect.

Lollipop OTA update missing

I got a N5 recently and OTA updates came up to 4.4.4. But have not received Lollipop yet.
Any reason why?

Its a rollout. It could come today, or it could come in a month. Flash/sideload it or stop complaining and wait.

[Q] OTA Update with towelroot

Hi all, I have stock 4.4.2 and did towelroot to obtain root. Today I got a new update pushed to my phone before I go ahead with the update I was wondering if I can. Not sure what to do. I would like to stay stock. Thanks for the responses.

i you update loose root but reroot and works

What update did it push? NK4 4.4.4?
Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk

Not sure haven't clicked update. If I can re root after then I'm not afraid to do it. I kinda figured it would be lollipop.

What update is being pushed right now? I figured it was lollipop.

If you were on 4.4.2 probably pushing 4.4.4

No confirmed OTA of lollipop. And if hes on 4.4.2 then hes probably on ne5 and latest official is 4.4.4 NK4. Only 5.0 besides cm and aokp, aosp is the leaked NKD 5.0
