Is Android P the last major update ? - Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers

Hello everyone
I initially thought that Nokia 7 plus came with 8.1 update and so 9.0 was first major update.
But it turns out 8.1 was also an update and it did not come with it.
So. Android P could be the last major update if Nokia counts 8.1 update as major update.
Please give your thoughts on this.

i don't read anything about "counting" major updates...
N7+ is in "AndroidOne" program, this means "2 years of updates AND upgrades" (from launching)...
BTW: N7+ in some country (where launched before end of April) come with Android 8.0...

No android q will also be there

Update Android 8.0 (Oreo)

Hello,
Just one basic question, you know if Huawei P9 get Android 8.0 update ?
Thanks.
Nope. P8 doesn't get 7.0, so P9 will not get 8.0.

The politic of Huawei for update can be changed for this year, no ?
But basic support is normally for two-year and p9 have just one year now and 1,5 years on first release Android O.
Sorry if my English is bad, I just learn by 3 months.

What is that for an **** answer? The P8 dont get Android 7, cause the CPU and GPU dont support the new required Vulkan Graphics etc. In Android 8 are no new technical requirements. So the Chance is very high to get Android Oreo
At least, Huawei had released the kernel sources so we can build oreo for ourselves!
By the time we get Android 8.0 the Huawei P12 is released...
Not holding my breath.... But if they screw me on it , regardless how well they worked so far I'm not buying another... So far I only bought flagships....
This is why everyone should blast them on Facebook/Twitter/Email with "Update P9 to Oreo!" so they don't left us without update!
I found video about Huawei phones which will get Oreo update, P9 included.
Hoax warning, I didn't find any source where the user got the information. No mentions in video's description nor in blog.

Fixed that for you.
OP, the answer is - never.
I still don't even have Nougat for my EVA-L29C636 and it doesn't look to likely so I think i can forget about Oreo
I think it will get Android O.

The P9 will get android 8.0. It has been confirmed on a number of sites like gadgetraid.com. It is a relatively new phone so it makes sense for it to recieve it.
I don't believe right now that we will get the 8.0.
P9 still in 7.0 and there are phones already on 7.1.2
P9 on Nougat? Nope. Not all p9's have received the update yet...
Not even all P9 cust/regions received updates to 7.0.
Goggle has released 7.1 a year ago, bit there is still no EMUI build with 7.1, only 7.0.
IMO, P9 will never receive 8.0, I'm not even sure if we would ever receive stock 7.1
It is quite common for OEM's to skip incremental builds like 7.1 - what they do is work the security patches etc into our 7.0 builds - so this is in no way an indicator of whether or not we will see 8.0.
At the moment several websites including some very reliable ones have published a large list of Huawei devices that are apparently getting 8.0 and the P9 is on that list, as are equally as old devices like the Honor 6X.
Today I read about this, (it has a link to the beta app that some of us used in the past) and the article states that the beta project has started, It's just a matter of few of us to find out If this is true (by Installing the app and checking avail projects) and which regions are eligible to the beta project (again IF this is all true).

Thanks for the link---just tried to install the Beta app on my P9 (eva-L29C636B191) but the install failed. This could (and probably is) be due to the fact that I am not on Nougat, however. Nougat just will not work on my device. I can install B361 but Nougat will not allow me to scroll anywhere on my device.

Moto G5S Plus Android 8.1 Oreo Update Rollout Begins

Hi all,
Looks like Oreo update is rolling out in India.
Source: https://gadgets.ndtv.com/mobiles/news/moto-g5s-plus-android-8-1-oreo-update-rollout-begins-1859708
Did you got it
I have confirmed this from the support. They say it is true.
Can you send screenshot please?
Is it gonna be 64bit or 32bit ?
sorry, this is not a rollout, it is a release note.. the rollout could come in 1-2 months

You confirm it when people get oreo on their phone, not when lenovo say oreo is coming. Oreo has been coming for a year now.
You'll notice there's no source for that article.

Instead of Oreo update i just got security update of 1st June
I got the June security patch today.. Still no oreo..
They don't want to mess up with bugs, they are testing Oreo via soak testers and it would take at least one month to release Oreo final build for all users. So, jus wait for few days u will definitely get it.
Funny "just wait you will get it" , some people arent even getting the June security update, im not so sure how motorola sends out updates. If they are relying on carriers, then we likely wont get anything , this is why i usually forego the ota nonsense and just root/custon recovery/ custom rom , and never look back , i dont have the time to do that now

That's my last option. Will simply unlock the bootloader. Install TWRP, root and than install tonnes of custom roms simultaneously. Can't wait to install Viper4Android and Lucky patcher. The same what I did with my previous Moto E & Moto E2(otus) and now a g5s plus user.
I am not very eager to stick with Stock rom. But there are many roms out there filled with too many bugs, which made me to stick with the Stock.
I always unlock the BL first if i can , you can always get OTA after that unless you do custom recovery , or root ! I usually dont wait for OTA, because carriers usually scrap the idea of updates until theyve sold a few million of the fones first , by that time , the fone is old and then they feel theres no need to upgrade anyway because there Hawking a new better fone !
I've found another article on Oreo for Moto G5
https://support.motorola.com/us/en/Solution/MS130856
I too got security patch update only.

Seriously man this is so annoying, I was too waiting for the update and when I checked it was security patch update instead of oreo update. This is so disappointing.

Pie update nearing?

Its 10 of this month and we have not received October security update for A2, does this mean Pie Update is round the corner. also, will the A2 pie update have gesture navigation?

It's kind of weird because if you see Xiaomi was part of Android P beta program, so was OnePlus and Nokia, both of them have rolled out the Pie update, but Xiaomi is still testing the beta builds. 22 August was when they started beta program and still it continues.

Which Android one devices got the final pie update? None to my knowledge. Also beta program doesn't necessarily mean pie. There have been some beta Oreo versions already.

September update was released at the end of September (about 20th), and the PIE is rumored to be released in December for our phones.
Patience !

There is no rumour. It's just that Q4 ends in December so this is the latest date where the "promised" date ends. So all we can do is wait and see but let's not make people false hopes about dates. It will come when it's ready or in Xiaomis case, when they want to beta test on their users
But still would be nice to know if beta testers are already testing something with a 9 in front. So come here my whistleblowers
Also companies like tradingshenzen are not shipping from china until today, so don't expect any update soon. Golden week holidays lasted until last Sunday.

you would want to look at this post. Nokia 7 plus being under Andriod One program received Pie update, a couple of weeks ago.
https://www.xda-developers.com/nokia-7-plus-android-pie-update/
And ever since the A2 has launched there has not been any beta build of Oreo, so guess, that makes it Pie beta program, doesn't it?

I bought Android One phone to receive Updates on time. But now I will wait months to get updates. So I think Android One Project form Google has failed and I'm sorry for them.

Pie is the last one major update.... Because Moto assicure only 2 major update.. But we will receive for sure minor update, like security patch.. Also I am waiting the last one update ; after that I will root and test all the other rom... But for now I don't feel the necessity of root.

I agree, however I think there MAY be an update to Android Q as there was a variant of the Moto X4 (6/64) that was released with Android Oreo - 2 major updates would bring it to Android Q.
Edit: it was the 6/64 version that was released with Oreo, not the 4/64 that I originally stated. I have the 3/32 version.
