Samsung Galaxy S5 Questions

I have two questions about my Galaxy S5 from AT&T.

1: When will AT&T relaease Android 5.0.1 Lollipop for the S5?  Can I at least have a ETA of the update?  (See http://bit.ly/1xhPpCu)

 

2: The Galaxy S5 is capable of doing HD Voice (VoLTE), will AT&T's Lollipop update enable this feature for S5 users?  I really would like to take advantage of VoLTE as it provides very good sound quality.

with the update you wont get an answer from anyone at ATT till its released.  My biggest problem with samsung updates is that they bring more bugs than good.  Atleast with kit kat that was the case.

 

As for hd voice those are the only phones that can do it right now.

I am asumming they will release it sometime for all the new handsets.  But remember the person you are calling has to have a hd voice compatible phone for it to work.

I've gone a few rounds with AT&T on Twitter - Only answer they'll parrot back is "We have to test it to make sure it's compatible" - Interpretation: "We have to add all our bloatware back in..."

It is capable, I talked to a AT&T support agent and they said the Galaxy s5 will have it in the future... I hope that holds true!

My guess would be YES.  They are including VoLTE in the 4.4.4 update for the One (M8).  Although issues incorporating VoLTE are the very reason they keep delaying the release (its been pushed back at least 3 times now).
