Android Q - Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion

I'm surprised that no one has been talking about the anticipated release date.
Last year, Android Pie DP1 came out March 7th, so I was hoping that Q would have come out yesterday. I'm anxious to try this out.

This might be part of the reason for the delay..

Yes, just saw that. I joined the Android previews sub Reddit.

How does one get on the list to receive the Beta via OTA? Or is that a thing? Does anyone know?

Announce what though? A sign up link for the beta? I don't use Reddit for anything.

Yes, I know this. I'm still trying to figure out how to ensure I get the betas for Q though. Do they provide a link to sign up? What happens and how can you be on the beta test team. That's what I'm trying to figure out.

Once it goes live you go to their link and sign up. OTA comes shortly after that. The link will be all over the place, it's very public. It will be all over XDA.
Be aware, if you get in on the beta and decide to go back to P you will get a full data wipe.

Yes but I don't think the actual beta starts till later, the developer preview will not be part of the beta program if it's just like the prior years

Looks interesting. May have to try it out when it is available.
You do realize that this isnt going to be a market release, or even a consumer release. They are making it as a replacement for vendors to use on their phone. Its all right on the main page of the website.
This looks like what that dude was trying to make people create a couple weeks ago. Hahhh.

Adobe Flash 10.1 beta SignUps!!
We've waited so long and finally some progress on this. Adobe opened sign ups for Flash 10.1 and Air 2.0.
Flash 10.1 and Air 2.0
You can now sign up to be notified when the first public betas of both Flash Player 10.1 and Adobe AIR 2.0 are available. We just started the private betas and we are really looking forward to getting these technologies into your hands as soon as possible. There are going to be so many interesting things that you will be able to do on Android and there are also going to be many new skills that you will need to learn, especially if you are new to mobile design. One thing that will help you tremendously is to learn more about optimizing content for mobile devices. There are separate sign-up pages for Flash Player 10.1 and Adobe AIR 2.0 so go on over and get registered. Unfortunately I can’t give any information about the specific dates for the betas.

If you go to Adobes flash page via your android browser then click the link at the top which says 'Get flash now' you can see it. Though it could simply be outdated.

I applied but doubt ill get it. Wonder if itll be possible for someone to get it and then release the app on torrents?
Please post/torrent when this is available.
No one has gotten email and we need this app.
I don't really think that they will limit the liscens for it, maybe slowly release them like google voice. will post when i get the email back though.
They'll probally do the licenses like they did Wave. So it could be a damn fiasco again. Even tho I got a Wave invite early its still dumb

Ohhhh boy, another program to take up all my time tinkering... will I ever get anything done in life besides messing with my phone? No.
i wonder how good it will be i've been very interested in seeing a android version of mymobier if a my mobiler app could be made from this
i definitely got a geek boner for this one. Super stoked as I have just started dipping my feet into development. This allows me to spend less time coding it and more time making it kick ass lol.

im in the MFN program, that doesn't necessary mean im a soak tester, they're chosen by random, and since the soak test finished a year ago and motorola finished rolling out the update, im at liberty to say whether i was in the test or not, adding to that, im G4+ user not Z, so if there's an Oreo soak test for the G4+ it would be around Jan-Feb even maybe Apr

FunkeyHuawei EVR-L29 9.0.0.184

@funkeyhuawei just released 9.0.0.184.
Did anyone update yet or does anyone have the changelog?
I won't be able to update until tomorrow morning but was curious about what's new.
Is it an advertisement or ??

It's obviously a question, I have no reason to advertise their services.
I, like most on this site, always like to have the latest and greatest Rom available and when I saw their tweet, I got really interested in what's new but can't see the changelog anywhere.
Like I said, I'm updating tomorrow morning but by your response, maybe I should keep the feedback to myself.

If it is a question, maybe it belongs in the Questions section. Guides, News, & Discussion is more for posting a public link of say the latest rom (which would sit in Roms & Development) while listing out what the new features are and discussing those said features.

Please do list what you see as different when you do install the rom. I'm liking how frequent the updates are.

Why would you pay soneone to get something that ahould free. It's highly suspicious anyway that XDA is shilling their services . The new Rom is already available via ota, if not then just wait a little bit.
XDA and funky Huawei could easily just leak the tools server side tools and roms, make everything public as it's supposed to be.. but instead they choose ......

Why are you prompting such a paid service that goes against all principles of the android open community? Not meant as an insult, just a legitimate question.
They ask 66 USD for unlock codes that can be obtained 75% cheaper for example, how fair is that to the community? Or charge money for an update that should be free. It's 2019 com on bro.

I didn't pay for the unlock code from them. I paid 22$ for that. It's 55USD for an unlock code for me from Funky.
Updates should be free. Yes. But when I'm working with 3 other guys trying to get the AL00 to as close to a L29 as possible I update, and provide files, libs and props. So the credits come for me at a fraction of the cost.
I have even stated in telegram, that once credits run out, I will not buy anymore
Ok bro
@duraaraa - EVR-LGRP2-OVS 9.0.0.184 is showing getting package info failed on my EVR-L29. Is this the correct file? Have DNS set and have used Funky before, so not sure what the issue is.
Update worked for me but there's no info in the changelog and the only changes I've noticed so far are the Security Patch is January 1, 2019 and the camera has a Super Macro option.
The biggest issue for me so far is that although the update itself didn't factory reset the phone, the bootloader got locked during the update so I had to unlock it again which prompted a factory reset.
I had to use the unlock code again so I'm glad I saved it.
Also, have not been able to install the patched recovery_ramdisk yet. Getting an error when trying to boot holding Vol+.
Can't say it's been the smoothest update and had I known of the issues, I wouldn't have done it

I've seen this news from one telegram channel that update with January security patch locks the bootloader forever and blocks downgrading to older firmware. How true is that??
