Hi Poco family,
After a painful wait, here I am with my fresh 128gb Poco! Wow!
Glad to be here, and looking forward to a nice ride and a great community.

Does someone Know if this Device gets Nougat? Maybe even this Month?

Hey Guys!
I'm now too an Proud Owner of an HTC One A9!
Before I bought it, I read on some Websites that
After the HTC 10, the M9 and our A9 will get Nougat.
I also seen that HTC has broken their 15 Days Update Promise :-/ but that was Last Year. So, are their any
Updates if the Device will get Nougat and when?
Greetings.

The real question is how to unlock bootloader. It's not yet allowed to, I guess. As others said there is no source code published now. But if you google realme 5 pro bootloader unlock there are several posts and blogs. They sound kinda general and made-up to me. Like they just renamed their Realme 3 Pro bootloader unlock. But it's worth a try I believe.

Oh why is that? Y'know me. I'm a budget person and I couldn't find a better, more budget friendly phone than Realme Q. I've had a bit of a struggle not to buy Redmi Note 7 Pro but Realme Q seems better in every aspect and is even cheaper. Ofc I decided this will be the device I want to use for 3+ years now

It is not. Mostly. Though recently Realme 3 Pro was sold in Europe, still, not in Hungary. I found this phone on kimovil's site for a 170 euro budget max and listed by performance descending. On that day the info was uploaded about the device and I ordered one from Aliexpress 150 Euro. Note 7 is awesome indeed but back then it was sold for 150 euro as well and ofc OPPO's VOOC charging, UFS 2.1 storage and 10 nm chip procedure and Sony camera (same as Note 7 Pro's) was too appealing even for me who is a Xiaomi fan. I just had to order a device which the same chipset as Xiaomi Mi 9 SE but way cheaper

Oh I see , here the device was costlier and the fact that it will take a lot if time for development to get started , if it does at all , refrained me from buying realme 5 with sd665. Hope you get some good stable roms soon.

I can see. Well at least you'll be able to tell me about your Note 7 experiences and indeed, I hope we'll get some good roms. I'd certainly appreciate Pixel Experience, Miracle Droid and AICOSP roms.

Any android 10 news?

Hello, I wanted to know if someone already received the Android 10 update of this device or if you know any approximate date of release. Thanks in advance
Dopiero kilka dni temu udostępnili aktualizacje z listopadowymi poprawkami. Tempo nie powala. Ale podejrzewam że w lutym dostaniemy 10.

Please use english as it´s the required language on XDA. You can use your native language too but the post has to be also in english, google translate is enough.
About your question: Lenovo/Motorola never predict ETA of new OS versions so it´s coming when it´s coming. I don´t think February is a probable date, it will last longer imho.

Does motorola do this with all its devices? The unpredictability of new android OS updates?
Also what's the assurity that moto will roll out the new update?

Once Motorola was one of the fastest maintainers for OS updates (when they we're owned by Google, no wonder). Nowadays (since under the roof of Lenovo) they are slow in releasing updates even security patches. They don't announce anything, it's coming when it's coming.
It's a shame that the Moto G8 power ships with android 10 and the 8+ only with Pie. I consider to buy a 8+ but the development here seems to be very low, just one unofficial TWRP appeared 2 days ago so I'm about to buy another device which is in active development like the Xiaomi Mi9 T.

Motorola may surprise you with the worst support and slim updates. They will always have a **** about you.

They have released this update today. Still nothing about android 10, Motorola is really letting me down
Is very sad that G7 plus rolling android 10 and G8 plus nothing
There is a new Security Update, which I'm installing right now.
Maybe that means they still try to provide support to the G8 Plus as long as they work on the Android 10 version at least I hope so

Here is your answer
New security update
Just got this... PPIS29.65-51-5
So no android 10 so far
Good news, I guess.
https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/moto-g...t-the-hell-is-this/m-p/5026082?page=1#5091566
We apologize for the confusion. The Moto G8 Plus is still going to receive Android 10.

No and yes. No there are no updates released, all sources that say Android 10 was released in Brazil and Spain are false for the moment. Yes there is a guy with a soak test, but that is confidential.

I'm equally disappointed about Google because "Android One" is their brand, so they should make sure that all "Android One" devices are up to fking date like their Pixels and ...working. Should be possible with those handful "Android One" models out there, no?
lol
People in Xiaomi are comically inept
just think about all of their users / customers who have no idea about what are ADB, EDL,TWRP, etc etc...who don't know how to change active partition or reflash the entire phone....in other words, people who expect the phone they paid for to actually work.
I bought android one phone out of curiosity. I am most definitely never going to buy chinese crap again

look...thanks for the effort and attempt to help...but I simply don't care any more. I am on 11.0.7 and spent countless hours in the past months fixing and fighting errors that morons from Xiaomi should have fixed before they rolled out any update. Keeping this phone until the battery starts failing, then it goes straight to the trash bin. As someone said before...f**k Xiaomi.
We'll see if it still lags after a few days of usage.

Good luck
Unlock take 168 hours.(maybe not for the age).
I have chcecked an xaomi program and unlock supposed to be done with couple of seconds,but i have no slot on sim card (i have got this phone for free) SIM card is required because without cant add an xaomi account in developer options.
Already ordered,so when It come i will check it.
This phone will be as second one,just in case.
Daily im using s10e with cr droid installed.
On this one i will try Evolution x rom.
Used to have its on a3 2017 and was pretty good.
That xaomi is too large for me.s10e also.
A3 2017 was nice with dimessions ,but for now is inpossible to find an good compact smartfon.
Only an iphones ,but dont like IOS
