Like TrashSlash said, there's no official date, but if you're feeling impatient, Voluptuary has a pretty nice and simple 7.8 unlocked ROM, along with instructions on how to flash it. Worth considering... otherwise, it's probably going to be a while. I wouldn't be surprised if it took until February or March

AT&T wants to sell/upgrade accounts and lock folks into contracts. This is one reason they are "slow" to release updates. I gave up waiting for AT&T and flashed my family's Focus to Tango 2.01a clean ROM. I suggest you try out unlocking your Focus and try one of the ROM's here instead of waiting for AT&T.

It'll prob be the 1.25.405.1 update (we're still on 1.14.xxx) If i install this would I loose root?
flash it through recovery
thanks for the info OP, i've been getting so annoyed with the phone randomly crashing and restarting. Although I think I'll do my research today and backup the original ROM and put on the 2.2 puzzle roms available. Need to root my new PS3 anyway

May security update?

Has anyone received the May security update yet?
I have not. Update will take us to version 7392. It is supposed to correct invalid sercuirty certificates. Does this mean the certificate installed as part of the Chevron process?
Got an update notice today but I already had let the house.
Rogers sim unlocked Focus on Telus.

I did not get the update until debranding.
Paul Thurrott said on his blog ( in the comments) that he got the update on his AT&T-branded Focus, as did many others.
cool, thanks guys
No
Nothing yet for my ATT Focus.
Nothing for me, either.
ATT, NoDo, stock as a rock.
I updated tonight. At 7392 now.
OUCH
From Engadget today:
"Microsoft has confirmed that phones updated using "any unofficial mechanisms" to NoDo (which was 7390) will not be able to get 7392 via its very official mechanism: Zune."

They mean the chevron method, not the unbranding method with VPN.
I used VPN method and am now at 7392
Still no notice
Anyone else on AT&T still waiting for the notice an update is available? Mine's still saying I'm up to date at 7390. Updated with timing trick and then rebranded, hardware v1.3. What a frustrating rollout process.

Bummer. Well, I hope those straggling notices roll in soon. I was getting worried with so many others reporting they got it.
I am waiting as well....thought I might be the only one since I did things a little bit differently in that I had NoDo via the Hungary update, then did the SSL to 7392, then rolled back to 7390, then did a hard reset. So for me it is good news to know others are still waiting......thought maybe doing the roll-back stuffed it up for my phone.
Looks like we are waiting for AT&T to finish its own testing again. Currently, AT&T is testing NoDo update for Focus rev 1.4 firmware. Hopefully, when that is done, AT&T will start testing our security update. We won't see this until mid summer at best
I thought by now we all know what to expect. Every update needs to go through carrier testing and AT&T is one of the worst in finishing testing on time.
I unbranded my NODO Focus to 000-88 and the message showed up on my phone that there was an update available. I rebranded to att-us and no update available.

Similar to me then, except I then did a hard reset.
I am on Rev 1.3 and not Rev 1.4, so there should not be any waiting for ATT to finish testing NoDo for Rev 1.4 before testing 7392 for Rev 1.4

I'm pretty there is only one testing group inside AT&T. If it is currently still testing NoDo for rev 1.4, it won't test anything else including security update for rev 1.3.
Debrand!

If you want the update, all you have to do is debrand, again. Then rebrand, if you wish, or don't. It really was that simple for me - one string, in one key.

AT&T Beta Bundle Cleanup

Just recieved 3 updates in a row. Still on the last one which says it gives the phone the ability to update to the Official Mango. Hopefully right away it'll update to Mango lol.
Ok, now it just started a Dell update. I'm crossing my fingers for more.
OS 7.5
OS version 7.10.7720.68
Firmware 2250.1800.7720.219
Don't know if I'm still on the Beta or what is different but I'll take it.
I'm sure there's many other ways to tell if you're on the final release or the beta, but one I know: check to see if you can add a hidden wireless network in the Wifi settings.

Are you on a locked AT&T phone or unlocked?
Honestly, I'm an Android user who bought this a few weeks ago and am not sure. It's on AT&T but I don't know if its locked or not. But I did find out that it is officially on Mango now.

It will probably arrive he has teased about running it currently, but i'm guessing he's hard at work to remove bugs before adding any Viper features...but the Oreo that has been rolling out is Stock
Does anyone know if it has project treble support?
https://twitter.com/moversi/status/934506335621861376?s=09
It does NOT have treble since only phones shipped with Oreo must have support for it. This has been known for a long, long time.

Doesn't mean it won't support it. It is a requirement to ship treble with Oreo but can still get it with prior phones. The list of phones already supported have a few from nougat

Although I can't confirm the U11, the rest of your statement is misleading.

HTC U11 units in US to get Oreo update starting today
HTC has confirmed that the HTC U11 Oreo update will start rolling out in the US starting today. The Taiwanese company's VP of Product Management Mo Versi took to Twitter to announce this.
Unlocked units will get it first, followed by carrier models. For what it's worth, while replying to a user comment, Versi said they're working with Sprint to roll out the update soon.
The update started rolling out a couple of weeks back, with the company's home country of Taiwan becoming the first market to get it.
As for other HTC phones like the 10, U Ultra, and U11 Life, Versi didn't provide any specific timeline, but did say the roll out will begin soon.

I don't think we are. I am on 1.27.400.21 (Oct 2017 security patch)
Completely stock. Let's see when we guys get the update

T-Mobile OP8 11.0.1.3.IN55CB Update

This update just came out today. Patch notes state April security patch and "general" improvements. I installed it and surprise surprise, STILL no Always-On Display (AOD) 6 months after unlocked version got it. Lesson learned, never buying a carrier branded device again.
No issues with the update otherwise I take it?
This is why I finally did a bootloader unlock and flashed the international software. Now I'm on the beta have a more up to date security update and all the features.

It's as stable as any of the other Android 11 updates. Rarely it loses bluetooth connection to my car but it's been like that for me since the first Android 11 update. Launcher still stops responding for 15 seconds if I try to lock the screen right after disabling work profile. That's been a problem since the first Android 11 update too though.
