Nothing new but wrong interpretation!
The guy who wrote to support said that he wants the update till August, 2nd.
And the service man said they are doing their best but maybe it won't be [email protected] this wanted date!
So nobody said that we will get Oreo on August, 2nd! Simply wrong information
yep, as soon as I read "august 2" I recalled that the guy who asked for some reason chose that date.
the website appears to be a blog or something and I don't know that ZTE actually confirmed this through their official channels.
so that "news" is, at best, someone's wishful thinking, sorry

Someone posted this also on the zte forums. And i already explained there that the article makes false promises as the employee in the source simply apologizes in advance that the update might not be ready as soon as in august 2.
Now it sounds like the official Oreo update may not be ready before the next flagship. I don't appreciate the lack of updates for the situation from ZTE.
Any news about Oreo? Sanctions seem to be fully lifted.

It's confirmed and they're working on a beta update as far as I know.
I'm the guy who wtote ZTE and asked if Oreo would come for the AXON 7, the A2017G model to be specific, so I'll explain.
I didn't ask because I wanted it by August 2nd, but because at the time there was a temporary ban lift that would have ended August 2nd, so it wasn't just some random date.
I asked because I'm a moderator in a ZTE Facebook group and wanted some info for the members, because they were asking about Oreo a lot.
But the ban was fully lifted before August 2nd and I got the reply after the ban was fully lifted.
I hope that clarifies it for you guys.

The 7.0 nougat just released recently, I'm jist curious that how long will the axon 7 get the 7.0 since it support daydream and i really want to try it.
For those who use zte's phone before, can you tell how fast would they release a new update?

Most seem to be saying October-November but honestly it seems as soon as they can get everything working since they seem to be wanting to be first to the market with Daydream to help promote the device and their company more in the premium market.
The only people who can give any real answer to that sort of question are the manufacturers themselves and they aren't going to tell you. Also, given that Daydream support isn't in the initial Nougat release but will come later in an update which is entirely in Google's hands as to when they release it. Google need to decide on a date for when it's ready and then tell ZTE who have to get it out the door at some point after Google announce its availability. A more pertinent question at this point is will ZTE wait for the Daydream enabling patch before releasing a Nougat ROM for the A7 or will they release one before that.
Tsk tsk, no asking for etas on XDA... Just kidding!
Always thank those who are helpful...and just ignore those who aren't.
Thread closed - this type of impossible-to-answer question just winds folk up.
Hey everyone
I heard the Android 7.1.1 update for Galaxy S7 & S7 edge is in testing at carriers and is just about to come for us
Anyone heard when exactly ?
The Beta testers will probably get it first. Release date is probably somewhere near february or even march.
I'm starting to seriously doubt if 7.0 will ever come. I rather stick to MM right now as not much dev been going for the Google Pixel.

I'm still running 6.0.1 on AT&T. Why the delay?

Because it is only a beta release and AT&T does not allow betas.
Final version is rumored to be released on February or March, and even then, carrier specific releases will probably take longer.

Yeah I saw that, and some beta users here inquired if that is true, only to get answers saying No.
Well I do want to stop getting disappointed at Samsung changing their words(or giving different answers). Hope we can get 7.1.1 ...

No News. Oneplus does not communicate with owners of older Phones. But i can imagine that they are annoyed because of the dozens of threads asking for a ETA on the Nougat update @ the Oneplus-Forums.
I dont know who, but one of the Oneplus-Employees said it will come. Thats all we have

Hi guys.
I earlier posted an interview with Honor CEO George Zhao that the Honor 8 was confirmed to be recieveing the 8.0 Oreo update.
But since then, the Honor 8 has been removed from the devices which Zhao listed who are being updated.
What are your guys thoughts?

It could mean that even he isn't sure which models are actively testing Oreo or they haven't even started testing it. Until it's put through some type of early tests, they can't release any info.
Haha let's start speculation again.
You right.
I am assuming that he is very well aware of what's the Honor plan in near future. On the other hand it might be later found inconvenient for Huawei to let spread the official statement about last year Honor flagships -
Honor 8 and 8 Pro - are about to receive Oreo which might have significant impact on both Huawei and Honor new models sales (like still mentioned Honor 9 and V9). I think they will release official statement (now they surely have to) after Christmas, probably January 2018, about releasing Oreo for those phones in Q1 of 2018. Who knows Honor would then expect the release of OTA about April to May of 2018 practically.
While there is still a small chance that Huawei could even stop the release of the update if they are afraid of new models sales., I don't think they will play that card for good reason - credibility in the eyes of potential customers.
Where is that list, and where did you got this from?

I think that's an excellent argument, it's very possible that their reasoning is a new OS on an older phone will affect sales of a new phone. Wait a few months after the release of your new phone and then push out Oreo to the older phone. The marketing people may be in charge of this theory.

B398 OTA for L09C432 was pushed recently, and
some Croatian users reported B399 started to appear.
B398 includes November security patch.
B399 includes December security patch.
A new one, B401 just appeared on Firmware Finder, I suppose, according to the size, that it is nougat with January security patch.
So, even if I wish there were monthly updates for security, we have security updates.

They do it all the time, after this the FRD-L09 models won't see updates for a while and all the other models will recieve updates. They did this before and I'm pretty sure they'll do it again. I just don't get why Honor doesn't have one universal model number for all regions like OnePlus or Google.

this is why you stop supporting them. i have im just waiting to see what the new Sony phones look like but im just itching to buy a oneplus 5t. i bought 3 1+5s for my family but due to the front facing fingerprint reader i passed.
the 5t seems great aside from the lack of expandable storage so i hope the new Sony phones look good.

The reason I really like this phone is cause I got it on Black Friday last year with a bunch of accessories. The price I got it for was alot lesser than OnePlus at that time and honestly for me the current build is pretty stable for my usage (Teen with bunch of social media, YouTube and games).

sony is great on software in fact its the best due to its large adds a large amount of code to aosp. they use vanilla ui with optimization and if they use a skin its easy to remove thanks to rro.
all oems should follow sony's ui methods. no one likes themes that are hard coded, they just suck! what im hoping is that google bakes security updates into treble so that they can be downloaded through the playstore in the future.
About two weeks ago I sent an Email to the honor support. I asked them about their once made promise to update the honor 8 for at least two years after the release. The answer was that the two years support would only include security updates. They wouldnt give any comment on oreo. I would guess it is rather unlikely that we will get an update to oreo for our device.
Hi,
I just spoke to a Galaxy support rep, and they gave an ETA of about January/February. I don't know if this is completely legit but if it came from a support rep, I'd think it's true. And the ETA seems legit.
I don't know what you guys think of this but... yea. Hopefully we get the Oreo update. I'd also suggest you speak to support reps yourselfs to comfirm it

"That was Legitness..."
I would be happy if my S6 gets OREO.
I think its true, its only a matter of time now. S6 is a good device!
Don't get me wrong but that answer seems very generic and as far as i know the oreo update didn't even hit the S8 model. Mind you that it will take another 2-3 months after that for the S7 update wich is the previous generation. Aaaand after that we can expect something for S6, but i'm not confident for a stock oreo from Samsung...
Since N released for the S6 in April/May, I expect Oreo to be released in August/September
Carefully read the message timed at 14.22, they will release an update on WHICH phones will receive an update.

Pretty much impossible that the S6 gets Oreo. Their support rep has denied that the update will come. Here is the link: https://support.t-mobile.com/thread/143393 . If you look at the T-Mobile software update page the S6 isn't listed as an eligible device for the Oreo update
