June 07, 2025
Android 6.0 Marshmallowhas already been available on Nexus devices for some time now, and it’s finally starting to make its way to other Android smartphones across the board. Some variants of theLG G4,Moto X Styleand2014 Moto Xhave already gotten the update, and so has theGoogle Play Edition HTCOne M8.
Soon after Google announced Android 6.0, many OEMs came out to say which of their devices would be updated. This includesHTC, which said that theOne M8andM9would see Marshmallowbefore the year’s end. Well, now that it’s December, are you wondering if HTCis on schedule with these updates? According to some leaks and various bits of speculation floating around the web, it’s looking like the Taiwanese company is right on schedule. Taking a look at Mo Versi’s Twitter, he’s recently responded to many folks asking when their phones will be updated. And although there’s no exact date for the rollout, Mr. Versi says that both the unlocked One M9 and M8 will still get the update this year, with carrier variants following close behind.
When will the carrier versions get updated, you ask? Again, we don’t have an exact date, but Mr. Versi did say that Sprint’s One M8 isexpected to get updated on January 4th. Additionally, popular HTCleakerLlabTooFeRon Twitter earlier today said that the Marshmallow update will likely roll out to the European One M8 in the next two weeks or so.
Now, it’s pretty difficult to tell when exactly all of these updates will begin rolling out, but at least we have a pretty good idea that HTCis still on schedule. We’ll be sure to let you know if we hear anything more from the company regarding these updates.
