[Q] 2nd OTA - has anyone actually received one? - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

There's mixed info on whether the 2nd OTA actually exists or if it's just a late announcement of the one everyone knows about.
Has anyone here actually received a 2nd OTA update?

NO 2nd UPDATE. David at TmoNews wasn't clear in his post the other day entitled "Updates galore". He meant to highlight the updates for other phones, and mentioned the mt4g as having an update too. His intention was the one OTA so far, not an additional one.
Where is this chatter for a 2nd OTA that you speak of?

Actually the TMONews post is where I heard about it in the first place - although I can't find the post, I'd swear I saw someone here mention that they had received it and it was an update to QIK (not a Market update - but rather in normal ROM OTA fashion).

Update On Froyo Upate

Just saw a news blip on droid-life.com that said, "Been wondering why you had not seen the Droid Incredible OTA update we were reporting on over the weekend? According to a BGR source, HTC is adding Android 2.2 to the package and plans to release it by the end of July or the beginning of August. Yes, you just read that correctly."
Just passing the rumors along to those concerned
EDIT: Delete this, someone posted same topic over top of me thanks

Here's just an obvious FYI, in case anyone likes to read about the latest update:

I haven't seen anything on my droid yet, should I expect it at some later time today?
I've root my Droid before than restored it back to stock, will that affect whether my Droid will get an update or not?
Ok just because Verizon said the update is getting pushed today doesn't mean you will get it today. Everyone will be on a different schedule and could take up to 10 days or so before everyone has it. Before you jump the gun, be a little patient.
Also, might I suggest reading this site and see if the people that got it had a similar setup: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=757899

US Unlocked received yet??

Well according to Amy-B, the mouthpiece over at Dell's Community forum, US users of the beta's and unlocked versions will be receiving the updates first. Well, today marks day three of the rollout, and I have not received anything. I frequently check the update site, like an expectant father in the waiting room, and there's been nothing.
Has anyone in the US, and more specifically, any of the beta testers in the Austin/San Antonio market, received anything for update?
If anyone should have been marked first for update, it should have been those of us carrying the unit from that beta test.
Do you really think that the upgrade would be released and no one post about it?
We do not need another thread about the update so i will close it

Update Signs?

First off let me say I Do Not intend for this to be another whine thread....
Just wanted to reach out and see if anyone has had any signs of an update. I recall from one of the previous now closed threads started one user mentioned the 5th as being a possible date. Though seemingly arbitrary date the 5th is here.
People chime in if you get the notification!
Nothing for me yet.
It probably won't come out until the new Google phones do. I know it's difficult for flashaholics, but be patient.
Now I'm waiting for the September security update for Marshmallow, maybe it will be late too. They seem to be in a huge work.
This thread is the best sign.

That's what intended mine to be, but it went south so fast! Lol no sign for me yet, I'm hoping maybe by tonight. It's REALLY behind said release date. Staying optimistic!
This is the only sign from Google I have seen.
Absolutely notting here. Not even the sept security update.
There will be a September in 2017,too
If I'm remembering the same post, a user speculated that the update would be tied to the September monthly security update. That seemed like pure speculation. I hope the updates are posted soon but I don't think today will be the day, since it is already the afternoon and a business holiday. Hope I'm wrong!
Hope it's soon.

Maybe tomorrow then, I forgot it was a holiday. What gets me is how they got everyone all riled up that it was gonna be in August, and it's gonna be out at the same time haha
Yeah Im ready for the official build too, this NPD90G preview wants me to want more, or at least some minor fixes.
No updates.............there will be speculations.
No speculations.....probably updates.
From what I've heard Qualcomm needs to do some driver upgrades for full Android N Support. If that is the case, it would explain why Google hasn't released the update yet, they simply can't until Qualcomm delivers. I can imagine Qualcomm has their hands full at the moment with all the smartphone companies out their requesting driver updates to support Android N as well.
I don't have any references for this, as I read it in a post somewhere but don't remember where. Don't take my word for it. But of course it would be interesting if someone could confirm or deny this.
I don't expect the update any time soon, but at least the latest beta runs very smoothly on my device. Can't complain at the moment.
Thats what has confused me DP5 runs well so id have thought it was near release quality but I guess not with the update taking so long. As far as qualcomm surely google should be the highest priority for drivers/updates given that they build the entire base that all other android phones base off? So an N driver for a specific SoC should work for all devices using that SoC?
I'm pretty satisfied with the Uber N ROM as is.
What @onemandivision said is correct, driver updates are critical. It's not just the kernel and the android base.
I'm a little confused by the delay though since it is already clear that phones on chips older than snapdragon 800/801 won't get nougat (ie 65-70% of all android phones according to some surveys), so there should be very few drivers to update/fine tune? Am I wrong?
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA-Developers mobile app
september update , my s7 edge still has the july update , samsung are dam slow pushing updates , my nexus 6 has the latest dev update but hope oneday soon the real 7.0 comes out.
New Marshmallow Image up... (MOB31E)

Regarding Oreo Update

Went through many news and YT videos, they are claiming that we will get Oreo 8.0 update till the end of this month i.e., May'18.
Can anyone verify this more accurately?
By the way I don't oreo update from Motorola/Lenovo since when we have XDA.
Using AEX ( Thanks @ishubhamsingh for the awesome work) from a long time.
While commenting mention your ROM too.
Anything other than official updates should be ignored. Other sources usually have no proof and are pretty much just clickbait.
Still waiting
Got the May OTA security update via TMO today. Still no Oreo.
I am inclined to believe that our phones will not be getting Oreo, ever. Motorola's strategy seems to be to kick the can down the road until they can say our phones are "no longer supported." They've left us at the side of the road for dead.
Eventually, when I get a replacement for this phone, it will not be a Motorola.

May update? What device are you on? So far I've seen people on either March or April update plus some rare cases where some haven't received even earlier OTAs

The month will be mentioned in the changelog. Just tap the update notification and you'll see which month's security update you've received. Let me know

Says "April 1, 2018." Silly me, I thought that I'd get a May security update in May.
