Good news guys Looks like Google is giving us treats for the holiday season.
https://www.gsmarena.com/android_wear_devices_to_get_oreo_update_starting_today-news-28614.php
I'm guessing that every watch that is supported by AW2.0 will also be getting Oreo update. Yes, original Huawei watch is already beyond the 2 year support period but i don't think that the same rules goes for watches like it's usually the case with phones. Do you think original HW will be getting Oreo? I mean, we got new security update some days ago so it's still supported
I hope so,waiting for the update in a month.
In comments on articles about this, people have been reporting even the original Moto 360 is already getting this. I'm not sure the relationship between android version and android wear code but maybe it's pretty easy to merge the Oreo updates with the manufacturer's code now that they are on AW 2.0.

The original moto 360 never even made it to android wear 2.0, so I highly doubt it is getting this update.

The fact that we got a security update doesn't mean much. There were some pretty high profile vulnerabilities that needed patching (KRACK, etc.).

I accidentally installed AW 1.4 but received updates to update so now I'm on AW 2.6 A7.1.1 october patch
Don't expect it for this device.
Just read on an Android Wear g+ community that it is only coming for the Huawei watch 2.

That sucks :/ I kinda knew this would happen eventhough i was optimistic and hopeful that Huawei Watch still gets it. So, it's finally the end of software support for our beloved original HW **** you, you ugly ass HW2!
Can someone explain this End Of Life situation though...? The Huawei Watch is STILL on sale via Huawei's direct website! Surely they shouldn't be selling a watch without providing the software support seriously!? I thought the deal was 2 years after the device goes on sale or 18 months after it stops being on sale (whichever is longer).
I think this statement needs to be reiterated to Huawei and Google.
Also I bought the watch thinking the support life would be alot longer than a phone... People don't buy +£200 watches for only 2 years usage.
This "policy" may have just made me decide that I'm not interested in Android Wear anymore... Even my Pixel 2 will have a longer shelf life!
EOL is not here yet, just no Oreo. This is near the bottom of the article.
Some of the watches dropped from support include the ASUS ZenWatch 2 and 3, the original Fossil Q Founder, the LG G Watch R/Urbane/Urbane LTE, the second-gen Moto 360 and 360 Sport, and the original Huawei Watch. Those watches will continue to get Android Wear updates (like the recent v2.6 update) through the Play Store, but the underlying Android version will be stuck on Nougat.

The only one for the HW1 is discontinued. The dev's watch died and Huawei gave him a watch 2. If another dev steps up, yes, but since there was only one and that dev does not plan to continue.
The thing is I only love the look of HV1 watch. Most stylish. There is no other V2 watch out there that comes close.
I have a Huawei Mate 10 running Oreo so it's a shame my watch won't match my phone.
Custom ROMs are our only hope now!

Well actually, just staying on wear 2 isn't a bad option, it still works wonderfully.
I agree. The more that Huawei Watch (1) is still officially on sale and is more expensive in stores than Huawei Watch 2.
I've made a post on their Swedish FB-site, here in Sweden it is still actively sold by two of Huawei's recommended resellers advertised at Huawei's site.
Can we figure out if the 18 months after sale claim is valid for Wear as well as regular Android? And was this formulated before or after the launch of the Watch?
I spoke to Huawei Technical Service. They do not have anywhere indicated that they provide support for 18 months from purchase / production. They claim that it depends on Google - not from them. They do not guarantee anything
It's a pity, because I have their P9 Plus smartphone and Watch 1 smartwatch and I think it makes the highest-class flagship.
Before we begin: NO, I WILL NOT PROVIDE A ZIP HERE.
OK, now when thats out of the way, lets Start with the most asked questions about Stock oreo for Moto G5.
1: Q: "Is the Beta out yet?"
A: Not yet, but very soon, as the Moto G5 MFN requests have Been accepted.
2: Q: "Can you provide the OTA ZIP?'
A: No, because
1:Its illeagel
2: Its made for a specific IMEI
3: It may damages your device.
3: Q: "How do we find out if Oreo Beta out? Using OTA?"
A: You cant find out if your Device's Bootloader is unlocked and if you didnt join MFN using this link:
https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Forum-...or-the-Motorola-Feedback-Network/td-p/3064626
Then, when the day comes, you get Oreo Beta if you are on Stock and have Bootloader unlocked at that momement.
4: Q: "I dont care about illeagel stuff how do i get the ZIP extracted?"
A: You cant!
Because you only recieve the update if youre Bootloader locked. Thus you cant access /cache. Unlocking the Bootloader after you downloaded the Update erases Cache and Userdata (as we all know)
5: Q: "So... Will Oreo ever come out?"
A: Of course it does! Just give motorola time!
I will edit this thread when More questions get asked.
You can disguss and ask questions here, but look at your grammar and think twice before asking something.
Thanks, P8tgames :good:
Nice, can't wait to see news about the beta for our device
Hope it comes out quick
Truly excited.
I suppose there might be a way if someone runs a traffic detector on his/her network and grabs the OTA link...
(By the way, check some typos in the first post, it says things like "illeagel").
Oreo? We will get a lousy November security patch update first. So Oreo maybe in March or April, I bet.

Well, it shouldn't take longer than march. If it does, it will be a tremendous dissapointment. My guess is february, maybe they will skip november and go straight to december-january
I got my g5 yesterday and it only has august 2017 security patch, so a 1 day old phone for me has only a 5 months old security patch available in it... I came from a G4 Play forgotten by motorola after they promised G4 Play users an update to android 7.0 more than a year ago and never delivered.... looks like I've fallen in the same trap again, damn.

The beta or soak test for our moto g5 should be close, the X4, Z, Z2 force, Z2 play and Z play have receive oreo or at least the soak test.. the only remaining phones are the original Z force and then all the G5 family
(Are the moto Z droid versions a name for android one or what do it means?

Hello there
I would like to ask when they're going to launch android oreo update for the motoz2 play..
It's been a very very long time and even every other smartphone out there has it..
Jesus.. That click bait.
Some guy in another thread told that it's going live before the end of March
There isn't any official announcement but. Seeing the pattern of providing update and the maintenance release notes for June patch. no one can expect Oreo till August/September as. It would take July to get updated security patch on every retail channel after which they will release another release which MAY be oreo. Which would actually take another month for full implementation.
Though I have created a tagline for Moto
"Lie like a pro
Lie like Moto"
Here's the Patch release Notes for g5splus

Cause It's in the news section and it's a news Sir.
As you can explicate the news as anything which is relevant to certain group or community and affect a large no of person is news.
Why are you still expecting after all this time!? They are not interested in giving Updates. Just Install any Custom Rom and Move on, because the discussion on this topic looks trash now!
Motorola os offcially releasong when the see the overall sales of G6 family has already satisfy / met expectations....or....nothing at all and theres no more options to release oreo...also..expect oreo release when Android P comes to everybody....im moving from Motonovo and going forward to Xiaomi or Huawei or Google Pixel or even back to HTC
Don't go to Huawei

I get your frustration with Motorola, but Huawei is much worse. They put out a public statement about major upgrades and patching and then did neither. Customer support was horrible.
Moto may suck, but Huawei sucks much more.
My 2 cents....

True. And this is nothing compared to Samsung.
S7 Oreo update: Buggy. Stopped. Two times.
S8 Oreo update: Buggy.
A3 Oreo update: Bootlooping.
Hell, I would never buy a Sammy.
Better a late and stable update than a quick and buggy one.

This was days ago. Guys, calm down! About 20 threads in the news and q&a section about Oreo.
I had do unbookmark these threads because every day someone opens another thread with NO information and I get pinged. Please start opening theads when something really happens. I would like to receive Oreo too but these "news" doesn't help anyone. Nothing against this OP, it's the mass that is annoying.

I really want to, but those camera bugs on Oreo custom roms annoys me, so I'm using stock rom again and one reason that I bought this phone months ago is because Motorola said that it was going to update to Oreo, which is frustrating to not seeing it yet.
Oreo will happen.
It's just a matter of when?
We're just lower down the priority list than newer phones (like any other manufacturer).
We should hopefully be next after Moto G5S, so watch for when that starts rowling out.
Hello All,
I wanted to make a post on Updates and when OTAs release for the OnePlus 7T T-MOBILE variant. Currently we are on 10.0.3HD63CB. We can use this thread to state when our variant gets an ota or Android version bump.
Off topic is ok, but please try to keep it minimal.
Edit: 11/9/19 OTA 10.0.4.HD63CB. Will share the link once i get it. If someone has it please feel free to share. I'll be more than happy to credit.
Just a quick question. Sorry if this is too far off topic. This is the first Oneplus phone I've owned. How are they for releasing timely updates? I'm coming from an LG V30 and I can pretty much imagine anything is better than LGs track record. Thanks in advance!

I came from the v30 myself to the 6t and I can say that TMobile is somewhat faster, emphasis on "somewhat". Usually every 3 months like the v30 when it was a current device to about 2 from what I saw with the 6t

TMobile is the cause of only being somewhat better at updates. I've converted my T-Mobile 6t to international firmware, and it has received approximately 11 or 12 updates in the 12 months I've owned it, including being update to Android 10 over the weekend. I'm considering the T-Mobile 7t but I sure wish that there was an easy way to convert it like there was in the 6t

Ya TMobile is the hold up for sure. They send their test updates to selected employee volunteers first to test things and it's usually a 60 day test ??

My 7t just restarted without any warning and updated itself. I guess TMobile wants to really control it's 7t. I'm sure they learned from the 6t and 7.

Ya that's what I'm thinking too cause we already had the msm tool at this point with the 6t.
The Stupidest part is they won't release the software for us for recovery. It's like our v30 all over again

At least oxygen OS is pretty damn solid for a daily. I still mess with the v30 and 6t. Too bad I'm going to have to return the 6t soon since I jump upgraded. Time to wait for the next update. Fairly faster than the 6t when it comes to updates. If only they had a quad dac headphone jack
