Lollipop update heading to HTC's Google Play edition devices on Friday

While the GPe HTC One devices were expected to get a Lollipop update early this week, it looks like the new target for release is this Friday, according to HTC's Mo Versi on Twitter. The GPe versions of the HTC One M7 and M8 are set to be updated, with both devices due to get OTAs on the same day.

It's a minor setback for HTC One owners, but a few more days in the hopper will get the last few kinks worked out. The rollout is set to begin Friday, so updates should hit devices over the weekend if all goes well.
