Nope. At this point I don't think we will get it at all.

I have started wondering the same thing. There was big news on the Droid blogs at the end of February saying people had starting getting it OTA, but neither of our phones have gotten it yet.

I am wondering with the G4 and Lollipop 5.1 on the horizon if VZW decided to focus on getting that ready to roll out.

So that was like 2 people and both were warranty/insurance replacement phones. Now a bunch of people installed the 23A and the 23B update that these folks got and saw a bunch of issues...most notably the data sync issue on wifi. There were also people that noticed the Android memory leak issue on the boot animation.

Now there are people who are having great experiences on 23B.....if you want you can apply it to a fully stock non-rooted 12B G3 (great instructions on XDA forums). I haven't went down that road yet because not syncing (aka not getting emails) isn't an option for me.

It would not surprise me if no more VZW phones move to lollipop before 5.1 since that leak is fixed there.

That makes a lot of sense. I had noticed that after that flurry of excitement over the purported release at the end of Feb that news on most sites was non-existent.

Noticed the same thing. Lots of Web chatter over those couple folks who got the update after getting a replacement phone, now 2 weeks later, nothing!

I also began wondering if Verizon has pushed their roll out back after seeing the issues and the quickness with which Google pushed put 5.1.

That's actually the assumption I'm going with now is that Verizon will push the update once they have 5.1"Verizonized".

In any case though.... HURRY THE HELL UP VZW! At this rate the G4 will be out before we see any 5.X update..
