I've heard that the Moto G5 is getting 7.1.1? Is this correct? I'm waiting for the update! To confirm this. Thanks in advance
please don't open threads like this - iv heard that i'm going to win the lotto next week - doesn't mean its going to happen
As to is this correct? How do we know? Your're the one telling us - Members of xda don't know what is going inside Motorola and only know what is publicly released by them.
its not informative and there are plenty of other update type threads already - we don't need yet another
If I'm "wrong" blame this guy?!
I don't think he was suggesting it was wrong, just that no one outside of Motorola knows. A lot of people have not had a single update to their Moto G5 and are still running Android 7.0 with a security patch level of January 2017...

If that was a Motorola chat person it's been proven they don't know dates or anything about releases other than what is already publicly available on the Motorola website
Soak tests can last months & then they are rolled out in stages depending on the following
Geographical location
Device variant
Retail (sim unlocked from purchase) or branded (bought from a carrier eg Vodafone or other non retail eg amazon)
If a Motorola chat person gives you a date it's because they are fed up with people asking & just want to get rid of you

Please do NOT post "Is Update, 7.x.x, O preview, etc" threads... 99.96% of these are purely speculative, and the other .04% are subject to change at any moment.
Also, before posting a thread, please ensure that there isn't ALREADY a similar thread previously posted as only ONE thread for each topic needs to be active in Xda.
Otherwise we'll have 6,824 threads about the next upcoming release, because everyone wants to see their name as OP, or can't check the forum to see if there is a thread about that topic already opened.
Please read and follow the forum rules BEFORE posting.
In this instance, pay particular attention to Rule #1
Thanks for your cooperation.

This getting interesting!!!
MOTO wants to unlock the bootloader!!!!!
Sent from my MOTO Defy
I'll believe it when I see it, but I do hope this is true. That would be awesome!
I think that Motorola wants to unlock it because bad reviews from devs.
Sent from my MOTO Defy
Not to mention the bad PR they received when that schmuck handling their YouTube account posted that users should "look elsewhere because they will continue to do what works for them".
Can you believe that?! Motorola's an ungrateful b*tch! If it weren't for us, they'd have closed operations a long time ago. It's us, their Android users, that are saving their *sses!
Leaving alone that customization becomes a topic more and more important to the "technically apt" customers and a locked bootloader makes them "look elsewhere".
Maybe they also realize sometime that devs normally influence a large number of people in their consumer behavior, be it by their dev work or in their direct social environment.
Wait and see...
And hope it's retroactive and not just a new more open bootloader for new phones.
They starting to ask about bootloader!!
Lest keep asking Motorola!!
Maybe we and it someware!!
lets hope this is true and not just a pr thing it would make development lots better. e.g cyanogen!
User:I read that Motorola planing to help the development on android devices by unlocking the bootloader.Is this true?

You do realise they didn't actually say that, right?
I really hope they do remove all the restrictions that are there just now but what they said was actually fairly non-committal unfortunately.
Exactly.
1. If I buy my phone from retail store (not unusual here), then there's no *partner* to concern with. So, give me an unlocked bootloader *now*?
2. They may only offer it for certain models, or certain SIM-locked models from certain operators.
I'll believe it when I see it.
any petitions..=?? where i can put my name under...
no problem :=) would be a pleasure for me :=))
keep your heads up :=) greets
***EDIT:*** I apologize, a site came up this morning under a "US News" search that stated an official Nov. 17th release for this phone. I don't know why the site came up & did not thuroughly examine the site. It ended up being a UK page. So, rather then have people continue clicking on the link I removed it.
Again, I apologize for the mix up.
Admins please delete thread.
Maybe I'm missing something, but what does that article have to do with Verizon or the US???

http://www.uswitch.com/mobiles/news/2011/11/samsung_galaxy_nexus_orders_delayed_on_three/
apparently people who pre-ordered may not get theirs until Nov. 22 due to stock issues, but the phone will hit shelves on the 17th.

We need a mod in here, or the OP needs to change the title of this post because it's grossly misleading.
What are you talking about US Verizon for?
Three is a carrier that is getting the phone...outside of the US. The phone launches in the UK on the 17th, which is why it mentions the 17th.
voxigenboy said:
If anything, it's supposed to launch same date in the UK & US so there's a good chance it'll happen.

Be patient. It's just like the bootloader problem we thought would never be solved. It's coming we just don't know when.

I dont think so .. We will keep waiting
i think they will hold it back every time one day longer for every question about ETA.
so now it will take one day longer because of this thread. thanks.
I know Bump! for unlock the bootloader. What is "bump site" ?

It will be a tool for the rim developers to sign their boot images, so the G3 would flash it.
It will be released when it's released.
dude stop asking for eta, leave our devs alone and they will deliver for sure! just be patient or you'll end up like others who sold their g3 just because they couldnt wait for bootloader unlock, then bump came.. same thing for the website, we all need to calm our horses and wait for the devs to perfect their work.
Please post questions in the Q&A section.

Why is everyone so impatient? Most people complaining will never actually use this service themselves anyway, their demands are purely selfish because they want more development to happen.
Just wait, of course they will release it, they would not have bothered wasting everyone's, including their own releasing the TWRP image if they were not going to follow through.
What they are doing is not a quick job, they are building a website where images can be uploaded, patched on their servers then downloaded again, they are also releasing an API so that it can be done via scripts rather than on a website - this takes time, and there is no point releasing anything until its all ready.
We should see android 5.0 before the end of this year (according to LG UK, Germany, Netherlands and Belgium) so start focusing on that for now and leave Team Codefire to do their thing.

What this man said. Be patient.
We should wait until Lollipop is released, as they say, till december. Otherwise LG can maybe STOP bump from 5.0,I don't know. There's no need for this hurry, i really don't see the point.
Can't believe you even put a [serious] tag on there. Bump website is going to come when it's going to come. That's your serious answer.
I've just got a Moto G5 in the UK and surprised to see that where's no update? People were talking about an update on the Moto G5 and there's no update? If no one knows it's fine ?

Please don't post asking etas - this is because no one here works at Motorola and so we know as much as you do - its pointless asking - any reply saying anything else is speculation & not based on any facts (even if it comes from Motorola tech support as they don't know either - they just read off a script)

Sure sorry. It's fine now because I asked on Twitter and Motorola said that it's about carrier and model plus location. So I got an answer. Thanks anyway
Here we go guys, Some manufacturers already showed their roadmap to android 10 (nokia, one plus etc) today.
Im creating this topic to discuss the Update Release for our Phone, so we dont have multiple threads for discussing it. News and things like that are welcome.
Android 10 will be released very soon for the Pixel.
Now let us pray that we are also going to receive it. And hopefully not like in 2023.

xz2 is 100% getting it. xz1 we dont know, but sony provides 2 major updates to its flagship since xperia Z
Maybe from Sony IFA can give us an answer later
Not sure if this is a good source for info:
But....

still nothing officially, but would be a shame a hi end device only receiving one major update.

Was anybody able to compile the AOSP version from Sony for the G8441?
I just ran into errors after starting to compile with make command.
i highly doubt we'll get Android 10 for the phone...
the phone is already 2 years old and between years 2-3 it will probably receive only security updates...and that will probably be every 3 months too.

Yep, and Official Android 10 binaries 5 posts above is just an illusion, you are completely right !
I'm hoping for a full Android 10 Sony branded update, but not holding it hope.
We've got AOSP support, but there's a lot of driver and codec deficiencies in that build, like losing aptX and H.264.
https: developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/get-started/supported-devices-and-functionality/current-platform-functionality-maintained
Hey Sony - please make a Difference and keep updating Devices to latest Android for (at least) 5 Years.
i'm sure that would also increase Sales !
