the April May and June security patch arrives on 3 June with a cumulative update, with the support for Beta 3 (or 4) Android Q
Why are there two March factory images?

Yeah, I read that but part of the charm of Pixel devices is up to date software.
If we give Google an inch they'll take a mile!

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.

Updated huawei p20
Looking forward to purchase it and then will submit review
Nothing to say yet, it's not released globally yet!
I ordered mine (64gb) yesterday for 500 USD (Switzerland). The store says, the wont have it before the 24. May. Can't wait!
Although I don't care too much: There are conflicting information, whether there is/will be a 4gb version or not.
The store I ordered from only has a 4GB model, the 4 other swiss stores, where you can preorder it, only have the 6gb model.
On the Chinese Honor website there are only 6gb versions...
The community development strength will be the same as for other Honor models: completely hyped by XDA because they whored themselves out to Huawei, but in reality it is non-existent.

I just got my Honor 10. The AI camera is awesome.
Considering the fact that Honor as of late has been very supportive of development, I hope to see lots of development once this phone launches globally.
The Honor View 10 had a very paced Honor Open Source Program, partnered with XDA and produced some great custom ROMs for the device. I really hope Honor 10's development to be better considering the Open source program has already been announced.
Development will definately be good because it is treble enabled device so lts of roms will come to this device
Development will probably be similar to other recent honor devices (including those with treble support): virtually non-existent. There might be a custom rom or two, but just an initial release, and that will be it.
great phone honor 10
I come from china, i must say it is nothing really good than this, i am very satisfied with my honor 10, ok,not say too much ,i got to play king of glory now,master segment frame is waiting me to get.
If you're looking for a development-friendly phone, Honor is not the solution for you. We do have a program where we give out bootloader unlock codes to a select number of people every once in a while, but there is no official support for unlocking your bootloader. This results is a very small development community.

Hmmm....seen this before. Western Europe may be looking at November 2021 judging by past release history! :laugh:
Haha! So true mate. You'd thought they'd get their act together second time round.
Which means it will possibly arrive Q1 2022

Thinking the very same - let me know how you get on with the Note 20 Ultra
Well, it will be a formality cuz my previous device was SGN8 -> I was satisfied with it but i did wanna sth new - so i have chosen a OPPO and that wasnt a good idea. So i'll definitely return to samsung, mainly cuz of FREEDOM --> i can get any customRom i want.
Hoping for best in class update
Reno 10x is receiving regular updates with enhanced features and optimization. There is definitely improvement in the recently released stable version of color os 7.1
Expecting good surprises and next level features in all the departments in Color OS 11.
I have Android 11 on my Pixel 4 with the latest June June 2, 2021 security patch but I don't have the June 2021 Pixel Feature Drop. What could be the issue?

Let's hope and see when it gets to us. I read that it's a server-side upgrade so it will take some time to roll out to every pixel 3 and newer user.
