That we're still waiting.

It's quite a bit longer than I think anyone anticipated, but at least we are close now.

And, as frustrating as it is, wouldn't most of us prefer a polished and optimized product versus a laggy, unreliable product that would only lead to yet another wait for potential bug fixes?  Clearly there is a reason that it's been delayed and Google engineers are no doubt working tirelessly to get it up to par.  Otherwise, it'd already be out.

I think most of us would have preferred spark come out three months ago apart from being included in this update.

I should have gone with a different spark phone. Google is torturing me. Band 41 is now in Vegas and I'm not playing with flashing different radios on my Nexus 5.

Hey guys seriously why complain. Y'all would have been complaining about a bug in the update anyways. Honestly its better to wait. They have knowledge about what they are doing, more than most of us here. Give them faith, and send complaints to them.

Well sh_t yes, but that's not what happened, unfortunately.  The light at the end of the tunnel is getting brighter, however!

I just wish we hadn't been told "Spark update will come early 2014". If they had said "Spark update will come some time in the future", I probably would have purchased a different phone or waited for something else. 

 

That said, I am getting Band 41 with the .15 radio

This implies that 4.4.2 is polished. Many of my gripes are issues with the last update. How the heck is the delete button/backspace in the keyboard still there.

I definitely prefer a polished update myself. I think the bigger issue is how Google is updating the Nexus phones, which currently is a big update 6+ months since the last update. Of course it'll take longer to deploy because there's more at stake. Had there been more incremental fixes over the past 6 months, then there wouldn't so much riding on 4.4.3 to properly enable Spark.

Keyboard is a separate app; if there's a bug in it (I haven't experienced this with my Nexus 5), it can be updated separately.

I hate the grammar cops, but that one letter made it a completely different statement. And yes, all fines are to be made payable to: "s4gru."

No, it really doesn't. These statements are all quite relative, aren't they?

 

What it really means is that huge, glaring issues (such as those they must be addressing even as we speak) really need to be hashed out in beta or even alpha. The small tweaks will forever remain necessary as nothing is ever perfect.

I've gotten the exact same email before. A couple of times. I think it's just a generic thing they send out.

Thanks, that's exciting but way to far for me to flash a radio for.

Nothing is to far to flash for in Vegas...
