Their target is to provide TA by end of day Monday.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As soon as HTC has Google\u2019s approval, the updates will be made available to its users within a few hours, Versi says. While many will be frustrated by the delays, then, Lollipop will still be gracing their handsets months before the vast majority even get a taste of it.<\/p>\n<p>Bear in mind, however, that these updates are for the Google Play Edition devices running stock Android only, so if you got yours from a carrier and it\u2019s running HTC\u2019s own Sense 6 software, you\u2019ll need to wait a little while longer.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sourcevia-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"sourcevia fCaps fLS0\"><span class=\"label fLS1\">SOURCE<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/moversi\/status\/538712822792740864\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MO VERSI<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following a series of delays, HTC\u2019s Google Play Edition One M7 and One M8 could finally get their Android 5.0 Lollipop updates on Monday.
