Hello,
with rumors of Android P coming in, do you think HTC 10 will get Android P officially or LineageOS 16? I think we won't get it officially because the phone is from 2016, but Galaxy S6 from 2015 is likely to get Android O so it is possible...

I personally doubt it, htc 10 came with 6, got 7 l, were lucky htc promised 8 l, and even then the whole way official android 8 is going doesn't seem well, I'm thinking that some htc 10's will get android 8 while some will stay on android 7.
Why would htc even do that? It doesn't make any sense.
(heh, 'sense')

(heh, 'sense')
And what about custom roms/LineageOS?
I think this is all a bit early. Android O hasn't even been pushed to all CID's.....
I think if the dev didnt find the fix of radio downgrade issues with oreo firmware ,we will never get LineageOS or any asop roms
This is my opinion about the 10 for now
I wouldn't hold my breath on Android 'P'. I just hope we get lucky and receive Android 8.1 to fix some of the bugs in 8.0.

With the history of updates from HTC that I know of, by the time P comes out, the 10 will be considered EOL
update

If I could as lucky T-mobile did't release 8.0 and looks like they want either, I was holding out but looks like I'll be moving on
I'd love an update that let's me uninstall Instagram and Facebook. Android P would be icing on the cake though

Would any of you be able to make a qualified prediction? Or link me to relevant information on this. I plan to buy one but don't want to go for the M3 if M2 also will get the upgrade. Cheers and thanks.
Are you talking about the 8 or the 10 inch version?

I'm aiming for the 10 inch, but if 8 is more likely to get the upgrade i will go for 8.
Also please clarify if the upcoming version 6 is based on android 7 (nougat).
Thanks a million.
I own the 10 inch version, and it is almost sure that it won't even get an update to Marshmallow. So no Nougat update to expect.
The 8 inch model already got a marshmallow update the last year, so it is more likely to get another update (but still quite unlikely!).
Keep in mind that Huawei doesn't update its devices very long. If I want my tablet to be up to date, I would buy a Google tablet, or go for the M3.
Do not by it.
The M2 will stay on 5.1, while the M3 is on 7.0
That is a shame From huawei

I wouldn't be so harsh on Huawei. They did provide a means to unlock your device. Unfortunately there isn't much in the way of after-market development at the moment. I'd be willing to give it a try but don't really know where to start, however the investigation continues...
<rant>As a side-note, Oppo takes the award for the worst company. As a R7s owner I was surprised at the length they went to stop people developing for this device, and they didn't provide any updates either. If you want to advise anyone which company to avoid, I think Oppo is at the top of the list.</rant>
Yeah it's a real shame. They promised Marshmallow and cancelled it in the end without any information to us users...
Never gonna buy a Huawei again.

There is an Android 6.0 update since a half year. But this don't come over OTA, right? They have canceled this? I could flash it for 6 month. Since this time there come no newer security patches. Really bad by huawei.
The update has broken some things like the launcher. I have must for the person take the settings new. Maybe that was the reason for cancel. Just flashable, no OTA, so do you mean it, right?
For M2-801L (lte-version) we have used the B206. Looks that huawei's developer had gotten no much time for this device. So no official roll out possible. For P8 Lite they roll out every month security patches. Crazy for a cheap phone.
Bye

Samsung are no better.
I have lost count of the amount of Samsung devices that I have owned that have never had more than one or two very minor updates and then been abandoned by them.
My last tablet was the Galaxy TabPRO 8.4, it was released as part of their flagship range at the time, got 3 or 4 security patches then abandoned by them - only ever had 4.4.2 which was a real shame given its good spec and awesome 2560 x 1600 screen.
I dont care about updates
You shouldn't be so harsh on huawei, because updates are only important if you play on your device. I only use it as a media device, and not for games, and I think there will be sufficient apps for it in the next 3 years. It is also important, that no update is better than ****ty update. I just changed from my Nexus 7 to Huawei mediapad, because there was an update to lollipop. beforethe update everything was smooth,now the device is lagging so hard, I wish I were able to downgrade it.

@Boris An sorry to correct you. But with all those newly found security breaches on the SoC level "no update" is unacceptable. I bought it because Huawei stated that they will update the M2 at least to Marshmallow. That's just ridiculous and causes an enormous fragmentation. I'm so glad that Treble has to be active and implemented on all devices delivered with an Android 8 since this year. Won't buy any device running Android 7 or lower any longer, just to show those OEM that it's time for a change. And Huawei is just dead for me. Never again. Such a bad service...
Treble can realise a better update policy across different OEMs and bring Android nearer to the best practice update policy of Apple, assuring more devices to be other latest Android version and security-patch level.

6.0 on 801l available, but security patch just from end 2016. Very bad and there is no newer version like B206?
Will post the name, something like B010 was pushed today as a new security patch.Something like 58Mb, with device improvements and security updates.Didnt install it yet.I have the 16gb wifi version of the 10.1 inch M2.Gladly the still update it, now hoping we will ever get a newer emui.Nice tab, very nice but cant share it with my partner for example due to emui 3.1..Happy anyway!
For the M2 801l it's B208 out with march security patch and EMUI 4.0.3. Better than nothing.
Got this update last week-end:
OTA-M2-A01WV100R001C100B008_B010
This improves system stability and security, along with the newest security patches from Google.
i received the "com.huawei.android.hwouc.17784.apk" through the Yalp store, not google playstore...Is it safe to install it and try update?
Will we see a port of Android P Developer Preview for the Nexus 5X? As there wont be an P update for Nexus 5X, only for Pixel.
Well, probably I'd guess. Should we go from stock now to Lineage and then wait for P based ROMs?
I am so much upset
I am pretty sure Lineage os 16 ROM with Android P will come in time. But it is pretty early to talk about it. The official new OS version (Android 9.0) will come at August. So you can expect a custom ROM at October.
https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/201...upport-for-the-nexus-phones-and-pixel-tablet/
No Android P for the 5X, which means no preview either. They will be supported on 8.1 through November 2018 with security updates.
That's a 3 year run for the 5X, which isn't too bad.
now i'm so upset but we should been happy to join in rom porting community hhhhhhhh
I'm sure there will be custom ROMs for the 5X based on Android P... just a matter of when, not if
I've been working on it all day today. Imagine it will come fairly soon.

No, the last official Android Version for the Nexus 5X is Android O, because the system update support for the phone has expired in September 2017 (2 Years). Only security updates will release till September 2018 (3 Years).
I think Android P will release only as a custom ROM like LineageOS or ResurrectionRemix...
Linage 16 are confirmed for Nexus 5x and Nexus 5.
Did anyone see what is new in DP 2 of Android P? wow

I hope we will receive oreo next..
Personally I think Oreo will come perhaps 1-2 months after the G6 launch.
I still see Motorola using the Android 7 v 8 comparison between the phones as a marketing ploy.

they have sent emails comparing the G5S having 7.1 vs the new G6 with android 8.0.. and then there are the fanboys of motorola saying it was never delayed..
Motorola could step up and give us the android P beta, then release the official in august-september, it counts as only one update just dreaming

Oreo != Treble. We won't get treble.
Lenovo screwed us over, stock-ish Android but no major updates or improvements other than security patches. I will never buy another one of their phones again that's for sure. Next device will probably be a Android One device like the Nokia 7 Plus.
When will we be getting it, and which version of ONE UI will support it?
we will probably get it with One UI 4.1.1 when the new Foldables come out.
I have read that we're looking at the back half of this year for the fold and flip 4...

One UI 4.1 doesn't mean, it's Android 12.1 as well, right?
If you mean android 12 L then it's coming soon. This month or the next month

No. One UI 4.1 started rolling out today. You can get the update with March security patch at any moment
I never got the February security patch.
Once Google releases it, Samsung will have to engineer it for the foldables. So you're still looking at a few months at least for that. We probably won't see it till later this year.
