Mobile carrier AT&T has started seeding the Android 5.1.1 Lollipop update for its Nexus 6 users.
The arrival of the update marks the end of the roll out's delay for all Nexus 6 devices.
In May, the Android 5.1.1 Lollipop update was unveiled for the Nexus 6 on T-Mobile, Sprint and U.S. Cellular. However, for reasons unknown, AT&T users did not get the update, according to Gotta be Mobile.
But now, Nexus 6 users of the mobile carrier have started reporting that the update has arrived for their devices. The update, which has a size of 81MB, will upgrade the device's firmware to version LMY47Z.
Given the file's relatively small size, the update does not come with major features. However, it comes with helpful bug fixes and additional improvements to the device's interface.
The latest update comes with a fix for the memory leak issues of the Android 5.0 Lollipop, which is the stock OS of the Nexus 6. The device is also expected to receive better battery consumption through the update.
In addition, users will now be able to disable the device's Smart Lock feature after the EAS password policy has been detected, Android Authority reported.
Although AT&T has already started the roll out, only one percent of its users are currently receiving the update. GSM Arena noted that the company did not mention who are eligible to receive the update or the reason behind the slow roll out.
As for the lucky few who will get the update, they will receive a notification regarding the availability of the firmware upgrade. But before downloading it, users must make sure that they are connected to a stable Wi-Fi network and that their Nexus 6 devices have sufficient battery life.
Those who are still waiting for the update can check its availability through their devices' Settings menu. Hopefully, AT&T will release the update to more users within the next few days.
