To start the thread off for questions and answers regarding whether the Razer Phone will get Android 9 anytime soon, i have created this space for news and information that you wonderful people can use. So...as Dr Evil would have said...."I'm the boss, need the info"
Looking at how the razer phone is project treble compatible, we will most likely get android pie.
Probably won't happen officially. Unofficially with Project Treble yes. I think Razer have given up on the there first generation phone.

I'm a little ignorant to this while Treble thing but from what I've read, isn't this supposed to be the point of Treble? So that we don't have to wait for Razer to push the update out and it can come directly from Google? Why has every other OEM supported beta builds of P but Razer has not?

The point of treble was to make updating easier by minimizing the amount of work done on the source code of any rom. Basically razer now has less to do in order to make a new update but will they do it? Not sure. Maybe yes maybe no.

I think Google needs to slow the update cadence a bit. It takes years for each new OS to "percolate" down, and by then the device is 3 OS versions behind. 2 years between major releases would be a decent start. And if they quit breaking stuff in between. I know Treble is supposed to help, but it hasn't seemed to make releases any faster on OEM side.

I present to you my simple project of an automatic build server for android ROMs.
Currently, my server takes about 45 minutes to an hour to build CM9 from a repo sync. And since I like to be as up to date as I can, I set my server up to simply sync, build, clean, and repeat. I thought it pointless to only use it for myself so I decided to go public.
As of right now, my server is ONLY setup to pump out UNOFFICIAL builds of CM9 about every hour or so. So this should be able to always have the latest changes from cm.
NOTICE: THESE BUILDS ARE UNOFFICIAL, and since it is an automated process, the builds will not be tested each time they are built.
I am doing this simply because I am too impatient to wait for goo.im to keep up to date (Don't get me wrong, I love goo.im) but I like features. Rather than keep rambling, I'll just give you the link. The logs are under logs and the builds are under zips.... self explanatory. So give it a shot, occasionally a build will fail and if that's the case, it should not show up in the folder, but heh, I try.
If you have any questions, please feel free to PM me or email me.
And yes, I do have plans for expanding this process to include all source roms for the Nexus first, then possibly other devices. But I am poor and only have one machine so I will work on it....

very cool
So I get on this morning and nothing was there. But there were a lot of log files. When I get off work I'll look in to it and figure out why

To the OP, This is pretty interesting coming from the newb tewber!
So my Nexus has been under repair for the last two weeks. Just got it back last night.
When I sent it in for repair there were only a handful of roms, now there are like ...lots.
So, was wondering, what is considered right now by the Verizon community for the Nexus, the most complete, feature rich, stable working rom for Jellybean?
I know it's a loaded question, but hopefully someone can give some insight
you should trie this one!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1613902
I`m using the maguro version and its great!!! its almost nothing you cant change on this rom!! It is simply amazing:laugh:
Eclipse Jellybean

If you are interested in Jellybean, I would suggest Eclipse Jellybean. I have flashed Paranoid and Vicious and they are both very good ROMs but I really like the included features and continuous updates of Eclipse. I am on verizon as well and have had zero problems with the exception of the custom navbar utility. Not the navbar itself, mind you, just the utility that allows you to customize the softkey icons on the fly. Otherwise, the features are great and they don't include a ton of useless features and mods that will add to instability, kill your battery, or just slow your phone.
Well, I think that ParanoidAndroid is one of the best rom.
The hybrid mode made your phone looks completely different. It's awesome.
It's based CM10.
The thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1619582
Unfortunately, not everything is so good in this rom. The actual versions are not very stable (maybe for the CM kernel). I would recommend to wait untill ParanoidAndroid 2.0 (which should be very stable).
This is an example of how my Gnex looks like:

I guess we are not going to get it.
People jumping to conclusions. As SONY stated many times, it's still undecided whether SW3 is going to receive AW 2.0

Yup - we'll know at some point, there's no any proof one way or t'other that we *won't* get it. All we know currently is we probably won't get it a launch...
I wonder it's because CTS hasn't been released yet.

All that is just simply a list of watches that have been confirmed, nothing more. It's not a list of the only devices to get it. Just because the SW3 is not on there it doesn't mean it will not get it.
Another clue!!

You are posting this every thread that you can find.. Unfortunately that doesn't telling any single thing like any other Sony support reply.. yes its in development at google's side but that doesn't mean sony will release it to SW3.
Well looking at specs alone, the Sony smart watch 3 should get AW2 . Exactly the same specs as the LG watch Urbane
Just bought one new from Very.co.uk for £79. It's very cheap. Let's hope there isn't much to do by Sony once Google release 2.0, because they can't be making much money from it at that price

Hi Fellow members,
Oreo can be provided based on the number of users requesting or wanting the Oreo update for 6X. If there are more number of users looking for Oreo update, Honor can plan to rollout the same.
I have prepared the Google form to collect the responses and based on the number of request, there can be Oreo rollout for Honor 6X. Please fill out the Google form and I will share the same with Honor team as soon as we have sufficient data. Wait no more and fill out the form.
Google Form- LINK

Understood but any OEM can discard the phone just to increase the sell of new phones, Honor 9i, Honor 9 lite, Honor 7X. Atleast they are considering this 6X because it was one of the most selling phone and capable of handling Oreo. There are various teams and levels involved in such decisions. R&D (mostly consider new device), PR, marketing, Operations various teams need to be involved in such decisions and get the required approval before R&D plans for it.
This was a good move to get the response, collect the numbers and then send it to upper team for consideration.
BTW thats my point and I am not influenced here. Everyone can have different opinion

It's been like that since the first A10 update on February, (I'm global version)I'm on V11.0.14.0 now and it's has yet to be fixed, it's really starting to annoy me as I used to use that feature almost everyday, but it seems that Xiaomi is doing that on purpose, even the EU update has this bug now, people have been reporting ever since the first A10 update on February but they still released the EU update without fixing it (because they really don't want to), so I starting to think that we should make a petition on change.org or something because I've never seen such a bad customer service/development team from any other company in my life, I think it's just because this is stock Android not MIUI. I've been using the Feedback app since the first day they released it but i didn't get any response regarding this issue, doubt they check those reports, I had hopes that this was a bug it looks like it's a feature for people with Stock Android, so they can sell more MIUI phones.
Any thoughts?

I've lost any faith in Xiaomi support and customer service. I can confirm that, as European consumer, I've never seen a company ignoring their userbase as Xiaomi. I'm more disappointed as I was using Xiaomi phones and devices for years and now I feel like they're totally betraying their customers. No petition will change this attitude and they confirmed it, since they say that they make money through software and ads and not with the hardware.
Best way to use the A series is using a custom rom: until now I feel that Pixel Experience builds on A2 lite and A3 are way better than stock roms.
In customs roms and in the global version they are also lost and in all apps, not only the stock camera, they leave us 1/4 or at most 1 / 3s of exposure time, this problem I have seen in all roms whose base or vendor is 10, even in many gcam, except some, that if they manage to jump the exposure time limit, which makes me think that it is something that is in the vendor of the new update, in the global rom It has been reported since the first failed updates, the 48Mpx have also disappeared in the Open Camera, Android 10 has been a disaster for the cameras and apparently it is the intention of Xiaomi the limitation because if they had not corrected it a while ago.
I think the custom roms should all be done again with vendor 9 as the base, instead of vendor 10, since these limitations are absurd, or in any case find the solution.
Should be fixed with the upcoming May security patch updates as some users have been reporting.
