September 2018 security update - Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi everyone!
I miss something or this month we have no security update?
I'm waiting for it to hard reset my pixel

Seems to be running late?

Usually they release the update on the first Monday of the month, but yesterday was Labor Day so probably delayed until sometime today.

That makes no sense. They don't only release on Mondays, so if there's a holiday they wait a week! Should drop later today.

I was thinking it would be today as well. Also if you go by what Google did last year with the Pixel 2's, this should be the code that ships with the new Pixel 3's.

Hopefully today...

It's up now!!!!

It is here now. ALSO, there's a new Android Platform Tools version.
Be sure to update your Tools before you do OTA or Image.

So who wants a guess at the ICS release Date?

It will be released when it is released & not before. Do we seriously need another thread concerning ICS release date?

Valentine's Day. Cancel all dates! Or deflate your "girlfriend".
If it comes out on the 29th, then Asus gets the last laugh.

That's just stupid, since they said MID-February
They are ONLY allowed to release it earlier or I'll saddle my horse and take my pitchfork right to Asus HQ
coming V day the 14th
Hoping for tomorrow!
Nice! I hope I win the nothing!
Coming super bowl sunday..lol

I'm figuring a Friday release date, mid February, so my guess is the 17th.

Let's just hope it is a solid release. A solid release in March or April would be better than a buggy release this month.

Microsoft's presence starting to show on latest CyanogenMod nightly.

In the latest nightly (1st Apr) of CM 12 the presence of Microsoft can be seen. The home screen icon is changed to Microsoft Windows logo and when the Android upgrades you see the 'Poweres by Microsoft' message.
Maybe all this is for good. What's your opinion?
It's only a joke that's already being discussed here:

Westerners commonly play jokes on April 1st.

Its not a joke. Here's the screenshot (see the home screen icon)
OK so the logo and Microsoft text appear - no one debates that but given its April Fools day I wouldn't expect to see those things in the next nightly

Does anyone know if Moto charges your card right away? Or do they just place a hold in the amount for the phone purchased? And then fully charge it when it ships....

Well, as I said couple of times, for me is better to wait for version a bit above 8.0 to let Google to fix most of the bugs. Having 8.0 as soon as possible does not mean anything to me.

Correct but that article is not about this phone. Yes it's going to be 8.0 on the z. Never know they could use the z play as a test for 8.1.

Q Beta/Preview or 9.1 Release Imminent?

Over the years I've noticed that just prior to a release of a Preview or incremental numeric progression, Google's apps undergo a flurry of updates. Seems like there's been a ton of updates to Google apps over the last week or so. Just speculating. Wanted to point it out. I think we're going to see one or the other on the first March Monday or Wednesday. The first P Preview was released on March 7 (a Wednesday) last year.
You definitely have a point, all of a sudden almost all Google apps are getting updates. Let's see what we have in store for us.
Cheers
March is very likely. The last 3 previews have been released in March.

Doubt it'll hit before next week though.
