While a lot of announcements around Android Marshmallow has been from a manufacture perspective, for those who are locked in to particular carriers the bigger question is if that carrier will provide (translate: allow) the update to hit the devices on their network. For their part at least, T-Mobile is address this for their customers. Today they have updated their Software Tracking Page that allows you to see at what phase of testing and deployment the Android Marshmallow update is coming to their devices.
This list is includes devices that have already had the update ready and are rolling out, most notably the Nexus devices, while other devices like the HTC One M9 state that “T-Mobile and the manufacture have agreed to support a new software update”
We know that HTC is aiming to have the One M8 and One M9 update to Android Marshmallow by the end of 2015. That doesn’t necessarily mean that T-Mobile will keep the same timelines but
