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?

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)

Next Android Security Patch Release?

Although I've lost track of when exactly they were pushed out by Lenovorola, I seem to recall my MotoX PE getting a November, then February, security patch and the "latest" May 2016 was pushed around July 20th... If that pattern (pushing out every 3rd Google release ~ 10 weeks later) holds true, might we see the August patch pushed later this month? Or will any more 6.0 patches be skipped in light of the future 7.x upgrade (whenever that may be)?

One of the reasons why I'm sticking with CM. they are on Oct. 5th security patch while the normal stock ROM is far behind

I hear you... One of the reasons I bought a Nexus 5X in June when the price dropped. But looking at my MotoX since then reminds me it's otherwise a better phone imho (VoLTE works fine for me on TMo).
Question: I assume you had to unlock your bootloader to root and run CM ? If so, can you relock in that state? I had to unroot and flash stock multiple times before I was finally able to relock... I could be completely wrong, but I would think the benefit of timely, monthly security updates is outweighed by an unlocked bootloader and root access?

According to a twitter reply from Moto Support, they ditched even the quarterly security update.
" We're implementing essential patches.As new security issues emerge, we will evaluate them and update your phone as needed.-Maya"
Evaluating, means they may or may not release security patches so do not hold your breath for an August updated. Yet, Moto Support on twitter was very quick to reply the first inquiry. I encourage everyone to contact them with questions @Moto_Support Let them know or demands!

H918 Next Update

Do any of you think we're going to get an update anytime soon? Especially with the wake of the CIA hacking leak that just happened. While yes I do understand that the process of exploitation is a pain and all, getting updates is good on another front.

Depending of what comes within the update. Sometimes are just small fixes and not security patches. Sometimes it comes with security patches and not fixes. Sometimes it comes with different things such as fixes, patches, and new features at the same time.... But sometimes, to update is even useless lol. Thats why i wait and read what does it applies. If it is nothing that interest me then i just keep the same version i had instead of upgrading.

Word has it that the US 996 version got an update yesterday, so perhaps there's hope for us (I couldn't find any details as to whether it's 7.1.x, etc.)

I was just thinking it's been a while since the last update.

Yes, my gpad has had at least 3 updates, and my wife's Stylo has had 2 or 3 since the last time my "flagship" v20 has been the stylo is on the March security update and my gpad is on the April update. V20 is Dec 2016?

Man im like wtf

I know right. I'm tempted to get the LGv20, but I have a feeling that, this is it's last year getting updates

That's only said "No SECURITY Update."
G4 devices will get Nougat.. Waitingg..

Security updates?
Where and when?

LoL like we had security updates before. I only got 2 security updates since I bought it. There were never monthly security updates for the G4. I also starting to doubt for the Nougat update.

I had taken 2 major android updates and maybe 5-6 security updates. My device is H815TR. Now I am using v20i Turkey Stock unrooted(it cannot be unlocked).
As far as know if you have flashed right country kdz firmware, you will certainly take security updates

It only says no security updates, but still, if the nought update does not come for a wider variety of the G4 models, i will be very annoyed at LG.

LG really sucks! They provide updates for V10 but not G4. Ridiculous..

I can't even unlock my bootloader ? AndroidOne phones ain't sounding too bad, right about now. (Updates)

There is nougat beta for h815 which i use and full kdz for korean devices, so how technically u can say that there is no nougat? Chill, it will come out soon or later and it will be last update for g4 which is pretty old device in smartphone world. That said nougat beta is the best rom i had on my g4

Yes, I also think it will come out.
But the G4 is just such an old device beacuse it took so long for LG to develop the Nougat update xD

Are we seriously to believe that LG is spending any time developing Nougat for the LG G4 (other variants) now that Oreo is out, and they are concentrating on their (new) phones which they are actually trying to sell now ?
I think we've been left in the dust - again.

Monthly Security Update

Are they serious, what are they talking about?! The last security patch I received was 1 year and 3 months ago... And this is on a carrier-free device which should receive the updates first, nice joke LG they probably don't even have clue that there's nothing going on.

Lol, 2018 is here.
Time to start breathing again - (if you were holding your breath, waiting for Nougat in 2017).

NRD90M.G935VVRS4BRC3 - Oreo update

Ugh nevermind Verizon is just sending out the security update even though they updated their pages with Oreo information and pics with this build.
It looks like Oreo should be available tomorrow. Build G935VVRS4BRC3. Looks like they are sending out April's security patch first tonight though.

Another fake-out disappointing.

Verizon themselves can't keep their own changelog straight. This update isn't the only one, there are countless examples from all of my devices with incorrect information.
I'm not saying Verizon is worse than any other carrier, they all have their issues. Make no mistake, these companies are not interested in long-term support, they just want your $$$.
Wife and I will probably get Google-branded devices next time. 1+ year waits are RIDICULOUS for software updates in 2018.
