Update Discussion - X Play General

Hi,
Got my new Moto X Play, as a replacement for the HTC One M7.
It's really a great phone.
And now I can't wait for Marshmallow update...
Are there any news, when the update hits european phones?
Maybe a sticky update thread would be nice (like in other forums).

Is this phone now offically DOA? Keep getting conflicting news

Hello Everyone!
I'm new(ish) to the forum and have had my Htc One X rooted since February.....I knew KitKat was being released for other phones but it looks like the HTC One X is just not being supported....
The highest Rom I found is android 4.2.2. (I'm currently on 4.1.1.)
This whole phone has left a really sour taste in my mouth.....Like so many other people.
"Here is our flagship phone for At&t"..........Nope here is the Htc One XL.......Nope here is the Htc One. I know tech changes quickly but my god........So I'm still under contract....Grrr
Anyways, back on topic. Are there any roms we will eventually see that include KitKat?
I'm not sure who to be madder at HTC or At&t......
I knew I should've gone Samsung lol
Thanks for the help!

The at&t One X is the HTC One XL, exact same phone, different branding.

Where are you looking? There are later ROMs than 4.4.2 available.
Anyways, back on topic. Are there any roms we will eventually see that include KitKat?
Yes there are KitKat ROMs available in the Original Android Development section. Please search before posting, it's XDA's #1 rule.

Why be mad? At&t have a release due out in Q1 of next year. As far as HTC are concerned, the phone is 18 months old now, I'm not sure how long you expect the device to be supported for.
PS. The acronym DOA stands for Dead On Arrival and refers to a new device that is faulty out of the box. I think you meant EOL, which means End Of Line.
PPS. Questions go in the q&a section, please make sure you post in the right place in future.

Looks like we are getting Android N

http://www.androidcentral.com/will-...l&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=buffer
great news to us xt157x users. expect android N in the near future, cannot wait for the custom roms for it !!
I think that is just an opinion piece.
I would agree, this is a "most likely" case and probably largely the article writers opinion, or best personal knowledge (there is little to no reference articles to backup this information linked anywhere in the article). Lenovo doesn't have the best track record here... they said they would have Marshmallow for several device and then backed out later too.
If we get it officially, great, but I'm not holding my breath... if not I am sure our developers here won't let us down.
If Lenorola does, I'd be shocked. The 6.0.1 patch has been out for 246 days and we just got . . . May's security update 2 weeks ago. Motonovo has said 2015 was a rough year for them (support wise) but in the 8 months they've had to make 2016 a smooth year, IMHO, they're still rough and bumpy. Maybe some Gold Bond Ultimate?
I made a joke there, and it's not really funny. Feel free to ignore.
I do believe 6.0.1 is a small patch for phones that needed it. Moto X pure doesn't need it. Read this. http://www.gottabemobile.com/2015/12/16/android-6-0-1-marshmallow-update-whats-new/ .This was for the 6.0.1 update. Then ask yourself if you really needed it. Plus id rather them spend effort on Android N. As far as getting N. We will. When is the question. That would be the last update it will get. But you can cry and switch phones. Good luck on getting updates any faster. Remember you already bought the phone. They would rather you buy a new one.
I agree that we will probably get N. What I don't get is the 6.0.1 update, or lack of it. They released it for the Style 1572, or at least some of them. My understanding was that other than language, the only differences was dual sim and maybe a radio band or two. Otherwise specs show as the exact same. These minor differences should have made any extra development minimal if any was required at all.
I'm not whining about it, but rather just curious as to why it was decided not to give the 1575 the same update. The two models are not like many other ones out there where international versions vs US versions can have larger differences (I.e. old example but take the galaxy s3 with a QC dual core 2gb RAM vs international with Samsung processor quad core and 1gb RAM) and carrier branding creates further issues.
Did you read the link? Im not saying Moto x pure is a perfect phone , it didn't need a 0.0.1 update . Read what it fixed for Moto x play. http://motorola-mobility-en-in.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/110304. Moto x pure already had these when it first rolled out. The fix was minimal and not necessary for them to make. The radio in the Moto x play was bad. They needed a tweak. That was it. You fail to see the relevance of the 6.0.1 patch. Are you having issues with your phone such as camera, radio, serious battery drain? I get a full day with 4.5 hours of screen time. That's almost perfect phone to me. And what ive read that's on par with the majority on this site. So please explain to me what 6.0.1 is going to accomplish for me or any other user for the Moto pure. More emoji's? Give me Nougat.

I browsed through the link material. And you are correct that the features for the most part were already incorporated. Just curious was all. Didn't realize the style had radio issues. Thank you for answering that question. I could care less for emojis as I don't use them.

HTC U11 updates

Before anybody tells me this is the wrong place to post, I just want to ask a couple of questions.
https://www.eglobalcentral.eu/htc-u...m-free-unlocked-4g-red-hs-code-8471-3010.html
The link above is the 128gb/6gb model of the HTC u11. Ive a funny feeling it is from the Asian market. I just want to know if HTC updates this phone just like the European market. I have a LG G4 and I hate it because LG skips many updates that are pushed to the Eu model and just bundles them into one update to cover another half year of no updates. Also does HTC deliver when it comes to monthly security patches and general updates. I hope they dont skip android versions x.1.1 like LG does. Thank you for listening to my rant.
Same situations here. I have an LG G4, and I want to switch to the HTC U11. I am interested to the 6/128 GB edition from the same site (the price also is very good). I've sent an email yesterday to eglobalcentral and the saw me that the smatphone is for the ASIA market...but the specs are the same of the EU market units (checked from HTC official website). I don't know about firmware updates for the India market..

Oreo In Moto G4 Plus (Petition)

Last year, when Motorola unveiled the Moto G4 lineup and especially the G4 plus, they made a promise to update the device to both Android N and O which it was the main reason to make customers buy the phone, they delivered and updated the device to Nougat back in December, but yesterday on 14th of September, they announced devices eligible for Android Oreo, and non of the G4 devices listed for the update, noting that, the device can handle the update easily without a hassle or lag, what surprising is that non of these new device were eligible also the Moto C and Moto E4, now Motorola WON'T gain a foot or it's reputation if they keep doing this.

LG X Venture Oreo Android 8 upgrade - list of issues/bugs?

Hi everyone:
I never bothered to perform the upgrade (yet) on my LG X Venture to Orio 8.
I remember somewhere, maybe it was on LG's own site, that I saw a long list of bug complaints
about the phone after the Oreo upgrade. I can't seem to find any of those threads-I'm lost
because LG's forums have no X Venture threads that I can find now.
Can anyone remind me some of these bug complaints that people made about the phone post-upgrade?
Thanks
