Punit posted on G+.  The site's getting updated soon.  The info was wrong.  Doesn't mean the update is "imminent" though.  LOL

Here's what they SHOULD do....just release kernels for each version of Android and unlock the damn things.  Then the community could build AOSP and they could call it good.  #yearight

I don't understand the refusal, the community wants to do Motorola's job for them.

Talk to your carrier.  They'd be the problem with locked bootloaders.  Look at T-Mo....no locked bootloaders and very quick updates.  I brought an S4 GPE to my chosen carrier, which means BYOD and no carrier controlled updates.  Fully unlocked.  What needs to change is that when a phone is paid off (if subsidized in the first place) the user gets the option from the carrier to unlock it.  This won't happen because they like selling new devices rather than allowing you to keep an old one running the same software as the latest 300 dollar subsidized device.  This is why they take a LONG time approving the updates.  They're hoping you get sick of waiting and simply buy a new device.  I got out of the game.  I suggest others do the same.  BUT, VZW doesn't allow BYOD except the aforementioned bloated dev editions.  Those aren't much better than the subsidized phones in terms of updates.  And if the kernel isn't published, just having an unlocked device isn't enough.  Those kernel updates are what make new versions of Android possible.  GPE and Nexus are the way to go.
