Earlier Chainfire said that Android 5 is a lockdown and unrootable and then he/they (i really don't know) came up with the root for Nexus 9
So as the final question will Moto G running L be rootable or not?
And i know i shouldn't ask this but what could be the ETA
P.S. - Please correct me if i missed some part of the story
Please sign this petition to push Lenovo (Moto) to provide Android N update for Moto G3 and Moto G Turbo devices (please copy and paste the url) - change.org/p/motorola-please-include-moto-g-3rd-gen-for-android-nougat-update
On 4th October 2016 Lenovo announced on official blog which handsets would be getting the Android 7.0 (Nougat) update.
Absent from the list was the Moto G 3rd Gen (Osprey) and Moto G Turbo Edition (Merlin) - making them historically the first Moto G phones to receive only one major Android update. Both Moto G 1st Gen (Falcon) and 2nd Gen (Titan) where given two Android updates - KitKat and Lollipop in the case of 'Falcon,' and Lollipop and Marshmallow for 'Titan.'
The abandoning of support for both 'Osprey' after 8 months (Android 6.0.1 was released in March 2016) and 'Merlin' after only 3 months shows that the Moto brand now will no longer respect the previous practise of providing ‘18 months of update support.’
Included on the current official Nougat update device list is the Moto G Play (4th Gen) - a handset with weaker specifications than both 'Osprey' and 'Merlin.'
The issue is not technical limitation. Lenovo appears to have simply decided your last generation Moto G handsets are no longer important.
The Moto G Play uses the exact same chipset and GPU as 'Osprey,' but runs at a lower CPU clock-speed. This profound hardware similarity suggests that in the process of making the update for Moto G Play; much of the work needed to produce a Nougat update for 'Osprey' would be completed.
Moto X Play (also on the Nougat update list) uses the exact same chipset and GPU as Moto G Turbo Edition - making both devices Vulkan compatible.
I just got the update for Moto Z RETEU. The update has 1465.6MB. I hope for battery improvement.
I have test the phone with Antutu. With Android 7 Moto Z scores 133928 points, with Android 6.0.1 the phone scores 121511 points.
Hopefully this means the RETUS one is coming soon.
What build number and security patch did you get?
Build Nr. NPL25.86-15 and Security November 1, 2016.
