Hi, I'm sorry if I've not found the right thread to answer my question but I've gone through a lot of Googling and not found one source stating exactly when OPO will be getting an official Android L update.
I've been using Liquid Smooth's Android L, but there are issues, and there seems to be at least one issue with all the ROMs. I'd like just one stable ROM of Android L that doesn't have the camera glitches, etc. that I'm used to.
Also, maybe I'm just bad at Googling, but I can't find any information on when OPO has planned to roll out official Android L report. I followed one link, quoting a developer stating that it would come out in Feb, but the link it cited had no such information. Has something happened to OnePlus and CM?
When will OPO get an official Android L?
What is my best bet for a stable Android L mod? I'd like Android L, but I'm considering just going back to the default ROM because of all these issues.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
Nobody knows. Nobody can answer that except for CM and they won't answer requests for ETA's.
I run Vanir-Exodus and it's completely stable, so maybe you just need to do some more testing and find one that suits you.

Only in India., end it hasn't even happened yet. CM is the official firmware everywhere else.

Didnt Cyanogen himself said its coming in Feb ? although it makes no sense for them to release 11S update.... maybe this recent update was to shut some people up

This is still very new development, but does anyone have information about Android L on our One S?

no, it wont happen until google releases android l and the only way you will get it is by cyanogenmod 12
I wasn't talking about official support, I was just wondering if there's any talks of it even working on our phones.

I think it is possible because HTC said that M7 will receive Android LOL update. We can then port the Sense7 + Android lol to One S from M7 but just many bugs can be expected. Don't think to use it as a daily drive. Better to wait for CM12.

yes but we need google to release the source code so the cyanogenmod team can start building cm12, the one s didnt even get sense 5 officially
Do you know if there's a chance to see a rom like cyanogen , AOKP or slimkat for this E8 ? Even an unofficial port eventually .
It seems that developers are ignoring this device.....
P.s. Another question: actually and officially what is the last release of android for that phone? 4.4.4? And have the eye experience like m8 or not for now?

Let me just say that you haven't asked anything new here.
Development is slow for this device, period.
4.4.4 for e8 hasn't been here in india yet but i think it is available for other variants like m8sw(e8 china-unicom) and other single sim variants.
Read THIS thread for more info which you should have done before opening the thread.
Currently I'm running the latest nightly of CyanogenMod 14.1 on my OPO and Cortana seems unable to start. Wondering if you guys have encountered the same problem. Thanks.

I haven't been able to get Cortana to boot on CM14.1 for about a month. I figured it was just me since I haven't been able to find any threads with the same issue. Really wanted to test out the new design that came out today.
EDIT: Started a thread on the CyanogenMod Bacon forums (I can't post a link since I'm a new user but you should be able to find it).
Since Android Oreo 8.0 will release in a few days
I just want to know that will the developers create a custom rom based on the new android 8
I have been using my Sony Xperia L for so many years & I have used from 4.2 to 7.1 All of it
and now I'm using the nougat rom its very stable and I like it very much
If custom Oreo is created please give me a reply .Thanks :laugh:
Whoa, slow down there cowboy.
It's not even out yet - and it usually takes a couple of months for the most popular devices to start getting good ROM builds. The devs can't work that quickly; don't forget that these are not official OEM updates.
The OEMs get the source code earlier, and they have entire teams working on them. Error checking (and fixing) takes a lot less time when you have teams that big. That's why it seems like they release stable builds "right off the bat" - but in reality they've been working on them for a couple of months.
If the developers don't want to do it, they won't. If they want, they will. Don't nag them about this, and don't be ungrateful.

Sorry for being so quick
But I saw a video about Android 8 beta running on a pixel device. And I really liked it
That's the reason that I asked about the ROM
And for making a ROM it's really hard and I know it after reading your reply
I thank all the developers for the amazing work they have done and I'm really grateful.
I'll wait.
Thanks

Hey men, it's been a while since you asked this, but finally an unofficial Android 8.1 rom has come to light, brought by Corphish
Here is the link for you to look at it

Thanks for sharing.
But I have already installed this ROM from the first day it's been uploaded.
Till now it's superb
Hi all,
First of all, I'm not a developer, so I'd would like to apologise if my posting here is "intrusive". However I have not been able to find an answer to my question and it seems this is the place where I have the best hope of getting it. My question is, once I have updated the tablet with a custom ROM, will I get regular OS updates from Google like I do with my Nexus tablet and phone, or will I have to rely on custom ROMs if I need an OS updates in the future? Many thanks for your help.
Sincerely,
Howard
You won't get regular updates from Google. Many custom ROMs are updated by the developer and the updated ROM has to be flashed.

Nope, there will not be any regular update from Google.
However if you decide for one of the KatKiss Roms by Timduru, for instance N 7.1.2 Nougatella, you will get an update frequently that contents the actual Google release.
For example the Nougatella version #24 dated 13th July 2017 https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73012269&postcount=1060 contents the June and July release for Android Nougat. So your CR could always be up to date when you install the newest version of it.
