Two additional devices will be getting an Android bump but unfortunately it will not be the highly touted Android 6.0 Marshmallow.

Owners of the Moto G 2014 variant (from Verizon) and the Samsung Galaxy S6 Active (via AT&T) will be getting an Android OTA update soon.

Given that Android 6.0 Marshmallow has just started to roll out in droves, getting Android 5.1.1 (for Samsung Galaxy S6 Active) and Android 5.1 (for Moto G 2014) for the meantime would suffice for these two handsets.

There have been a number of devices getting the same with the OTA update carrying important bug fixes and features that Android phone owners will want to apply as soon as they do pop up the respective device’s notification screens. 

The Moto G 2014 is something that came out way back in 2013 and for folks subscribed under mobile carrier Verizon Wireless, the Android bump is certainly something that will suffice for the time being. And Android bump was actually sent out as early as July but the patch was only applicable to unlocked Moto G 2014 variants.

Among the features to look forward to include the Material Design, Ambient Display, new notifications and a new flashlight option which you can find at the Quick Settings panel once the update has been completely applied as mentioned by GSM Arena.

Over at AT&T, Samsung Galaxy S6 Active owners can look forward to an Android 5.1.1 Lollipop bump as well (build version G890AUCU3BOJE) which is currently rolling out. The update is equally important and includes new features plus Samsung Pay, the company’s own version to compete with the Apple Pay and Android Pay.

The AT&T roll out of the Android 5.1.1 Lollipop will be coming out in stages so for good measure, it would be wise to keep a close eye on your phone’s notification settings just in case the update is ready for download and application.

For both devices, the update is important since it does address that popular Stagefright vulnerability. A better understanding of the exploit is explained in depth over at Android Central. Other than that, security patches are the more important ones to look forward to for now.

Assuming the update is already available, it would be best to keep in mind about the usual practice of ensuring that you have a good WiFi connection as well as ensuring that your phone has at least a 50% charge.
