I hate that you guys fell this way. I think this is maybe the best phone I've ever had. I've been running Android 11 for a couple days and I must say it vastly improved this phone. It fixed a lot of problems I was having and I couldn't be happier. It sucks because we have one of the only phones that can make Oneplus, Samsung and Apple fanboys jealous... IMO....

Nono, it really is amazing phone but my problem is with my updates and allot of others, people can't update at all even with a vpn, and the customer service agent helpful at all, if it wasn't for people posting new updates I'd be stuck on may security

Oh okay, I thought we were losing a member. I don't know why the updates are so iffy. Some regions are like clockwork and some regions aren't getting anything. Yes, the customer service is garbage.

If the updates wore as consistent as other regions it would be my perfect phone! Without a doubt.
But I'm going to wait to December when we get the android 11 update, and hope I get it

Sucks you guys have to wait so long to get it. It's truly awesome...

Love the phone, I really do but for updates this phone sucks big time. Came from a pixel and samsung phone.. their updates are so much faster. Even for a samsung phone.
I hope the update for android 11 is a good one because I'm thinking to switch back to a pixel phone.

Let me get this straight? You want to sell your phone because you haven't had an update in the last couple of months ? Clearly you've never been a Samsung user I'm loving the phone, coming from a Samsung galaxy note 9. I now have a Snapdragon , decent base storage , and that dual battery / 30 minute fast charge is perfect for heavy usage, paired with decent battery life, +5 hour SOT over 24 hours consistently with all the bells and whistles switched on.

I got an update every month with my S10 plus , so yeah I so know, before the S10 updates wore crap, region settings gone no updates themes don't work fonts don't work breeno services don't work heytap cloud doesn't work, I spent 1100 pounds on this phone I expect top notch for paying that amount, because your not having these problems it's not effecting you so you can't really comment on this..... Have you looked on the updates thread about all the other problems?...

you guys living in EU should read this to understand :
"As a side note, due to limitations of the GDPR, European users will not have access to the beta version of the software. Even if you have an eligible device, you’ll need to wait until the stable rollout of Color OS 11 before you’ll be able to install it. Users outside of Europe will be able to try the open beta if they wish."
Source : https://www.androidauthority.com/color-os-11-1157601/
But Oppo swear they will release stable version before end of 2020.
Luckily im using Fx2P asia version . I have to say COS11 is really nice update and this device is stunning

Im using CPH2025 and i got update to COS11 , im living in Vietnam
Try change VPN to VN ? which version are you in ?

I think oppo should be quicker with the updates inc security patches.
I remember reading this was one area they were looking to improve on.
I can't wait for colorOS11 but December is quite far away, hope the western market it get it much sooner.

If that is the case how come no one have asked Huawei to confirm this?
Ofc we can expect this to never be Ota but from what market has this been released?
Ask the support in that country in that case.
I just hope that this update improve the performance. If not I'll have to change the phone. When the phone gets laggy I'd throw it by the window

Same here it affects my physical and mental health. Every time it becomes laggy my stress and anxiety level goes up.
It has reported about extreme performance improvement over lollipop
All the last weeks since the leak of the beta MM releases, I read so much about trouble, problems, rollback and even more trouble...
Luckily I stayed on LP! So I guess it will still need some time - if they eveb haven't dropped it...
As almost at every company - only the model releases are important and care. Mate 7 is already long time past having dust on it! It's no more important for them on the market-battle...
i contacted huawei arabia official customer support.
and they said, it should be released soon, they are working on it.
so have patience

I do not think they are working on it...
I think when they decide to start working and finish the last 5% of the work
it will go kind of fast, the problem is the project has been put a side because other models are more prioritized obviously.
It is a stupid strategy to leave something 95% done and not finish it, it is a waste of resources it does also upset their customers.
They need to realize... about 8 million people are affect and will suffer mentally and physically because of the lack of software dedication.

i feel equally frustrated as you are,
but don't forget they are giving excellent phones at half price compare to other manufacturers :good:
remember lollipop upgrade it was released almost after a year, this time they started beta test earlier because i believe this will be the last update for this phone and they don't want any bug.
in past i never bought a huawei phone just because lack of updates, this time they looked much promising, as they have released MM for some phones, so don't lose hope.
as they have provided official MM downgrade packages, i doubt final version will be delayed.
It will be like last time. When Android N is released they will release Marshmallow .. So that we can be one version behind always.

Yes but Im on the unlocked firmware Verizon s7 edge I had used odin to flash the unlocked firmware a few months back not rooted just received the APL4 with December security patch I suppose this is wrong place to have posted that since im on unlocked firmware.
No it's not!! Not to Verizon anyway!!
*not
Well only 2 days left in January 2017 and no Nougat update anywhere in site.
Once again, thanks Verizon for failing your loyal customers!!!!!!
Verizon will wait for S8 device to drop and then put the S7 devices on the shelf. I don't think that they ever intended to provide Nougat to S7 even though they participated in the beta. S8 is just a few months away therefore projecting another avenue of revenue for Verizon.
I wouldn't say that the s7 will be left out at least not by the developers of this forum. Maybe verizon however thanks to that person in the beta forum we can at least install 7.0 which is a beta maybe in we can un beta the beta in the future and have a perfect 7.0 rom. With that being said im just fine with 7.0
Won't really be a significant difference between 7.0 and 7.1.
February.... march...what the heck verizon get it together or im going back to straight talk, i thought i payed hundreds more for less inconvenience.
Same as it is every year. It's a contest between getting a new model phone with the new OS or Verizon letting us have one. Usually close to a tie. in any case I stopped worrying about the new OS and just get a new phone every year. That's' probably what they want.. Maybe this year I'll have it for about a few weeks at most before a new model is available. Whatever Verizon....
I'm looking to go to I phone 8 on T Mobile before buying another non updated locked down Samsung product from Verizon. I may try second gen pixel if it looks good.
I really want Nougat to be released but at the rate it's going, support is nonexistent for this phone. I'm honestly thinking of canceling my Verizon plan and going to Straight Talk with VZW towers. At least then I'll be able to pay for what I get, ya know? Just wish they had the Pixel XL on the straight talk payment plan store.

Naw battery life was horrible on mm even on a rooted U firmware. The beta is really beneficial. I've been on the beta for a month and so far no problems. And I'm on update 1

C782 No updates since 9.0

Anyone else on C782 noticed since we got 9.0 (168) we haven't had anymore updates/security patches in a while, anyone know whats up with that? i feel like our phones have just been abandoned this is first and last time i use Huawei, Google Pixel or Samsung next upgrade for me at least they get monthly patches/fixes even my bros S8 is being security/bug patched each month.
I've noticed it too.
Still on .168
Still on .159 with November security
Get yourself on Huawei forums, under software there's a very large post, join the crowd pressuring them to change their process. Mods have put up "false" updates to try quieten the roar and just made it worse. Infuriating that FF can't work once you're already on pie, don't fancy downgrading and full wipe just for my security patch

They said themselves bi monthly updates for all p m and nova handsets, clearly trying not to get banned from anywhere else and bit off more than they can chew. Any time I've spoken to someone, being able to speak to anyone more senior than first point of contact is impossible (which from experience I'm pretty sure goes against certain rules re: complaints) contemplating a ceo office email with links to all these such posts and their own promises.
Not that it'll make a difference. Just need to vent haha

I'm with Three. Still on 159, November security patch. Just been on a live chat with them. Nothing resolved but got a £25 credit.
Still on .168 for me as well, showing 1st December security patch.
Last time I buy Huawei as well, I don't mind not getting full updates but not even getting security updates is ridiculous.

Yeah i just wish they would push them out monthly like samsung does instead of making us wait 3-5 months and by that time the update is worthless.

Bi-monthly would do me fine. In a dream world I'd like 9.1 and camera processing parameters from the P30 Pro (I've read it's a little less heavy on the processing) but I doubt we'll ever see that!
Still 1st Dec 18 security for me, unlocked phone from o2 with Voda sim.
Pathetic, it's almost 5 months out of date.

My point being the article was written the say after I said I doubt we'll ever see 9.1.
You're right though, probably still months to wait until we see it.
Seems 3 customers are getting .204?
Nothing on O2, EE and Vodafone.............
Asia Pacific is getting monthly security updates so far. I on April security at the moment.

February 2020 Security update where is it?

Did Xiaomi forgot it? What happens?
It's still February and we will get it next week. Keep calm!
Coronavirus happened?
When the device first launched, we used to get updates in the first week of the month, but as the time went by we started getting them by the end of the month. We will get it. But don't keep your hopes up, it'll just be a mere security update and 'bug fixes'. Most probably.

Not to mention, some neighboring provinces in China are also affected with the virus, not just Wuhan.
I really don't think that the virus poses a threat to the development. I'm quite sure that in this day and age, people can work from home or basically from anywhere in the world. It will just be another excuse for Xiaomi's laziness. Hell, Xiaomi India's official Twitter account said that Mi A3 would get the Q update mid-February, but it's February 23rd and they still didn't get one. So, I've stopped expecting anything from Xiaomi, and I've learnt a valuable lesson, never again cheap Chinese smartphones. They come with bloat, slow updates and sh*tty customer support. Cheers.

For the price its an ok phone. However most likely this was my first and last Xiaomi phone.
Would not be surprised to see them use the virus as a. Excuse to drop updates on the device, would prefer if they communicated but they seem to just ignore us, problem being is the one program is not profitable for them selling as they cannot load advertising in to the device
Update bug question
the new update that rolled out about a week ago now (at least for the s9+), and I'm wondering what bugs this one has. I had to back up my stuff and factory reset my phone to get some of the bugs out. I'm still noticing some other things I'm not crazy about even after that reset, though my phone is working MUCH better now. Can someone who has it give me their input before I do the update? Thanks!

Same. But Google forces oems to use features as a default. If oem wants to take Android 10 certificate on his new phone Google forces them to use Cam2Api as a default. Google gives me hope in a good way.
More force to the Oems for new features = Better phones
Google knows if they leave the choices to Oems this will cause deep differencies between phones. I am glad they understand that.
For example:
Gcam vs Stock Mi A2 Lite camera. You know the difference. Its like day and night. Same hardware but better results.

Exactly, I don't understand why people are all up and arms about the monthly being late. Are you in a rush for something? If you have ants in your pants and itching to update something, just reflash your current version to curb your addiction. Everyone needs to relax and stop opening meaningless threads. Be patient and just wait for the update to come out.
Well, maybe because one of the reason they bought the phone is that it should be the first to get each monthly security update. It's google update for google products after all.
Turned out, this month, my S23U is getting update faster than my P7P.
Am not itching or b*tching about update. I just find it funny that google is lagging behind in an area where they should actually excel. Not to mention they only have less than 20 phone models in their portofolio to manage as well. Lol

And how many of the 1 million Samsung devices did get the update this month?
Samsung is known to have a history of taking back or stopping updates due to massive problems. Google isn't the best update company too.
Better late and stable than early and buggy.

Well, consider that samsung, within one month, sold 1.1 million unit of s23 series alone globally, and those series been updated/getting march 2023 update,
i'd say, 1 million then.
number aside. I agree about being bug free. Which, surprisingly, exactly how it goes so far for my s23u.

Probably the same reason people talk about Pixel in Samsung forums. Justify a purchase, feel the need to lord it over if something is presumed better on one, really like their phone and want to convince others to like them too, tribalism, cult status.. all kinds of things. I just take it as entertainment on a Sunday morning. I do like the size specs on the S23 mini but then again it's a Sammy so...
As for the topic at hand I think if Google at least gave a reason for the delay that would appease many folks but that doesn't seem to be forthcoming. There are always little bugs we're hoping to squash with each monthly and maybe that's why everyone is wondering when. Even the columnists at AP and 9to5 are wondering and mashing the update button so for people to say just wait, what's the big deal, cool your jets etc. it is a little disingenuous.

the one big important thing against Sammy is Knox and Warranty lose when bootloader unlock. You w8 big part of new product because you want to keep warranty.
Unrelated to the update scenarios, I'll say this...I had the pixel 5 and swapped to a Samsung note 20 ultra which I used until getting the p7p. If I'm honest, the note has a way more premium feel to it, holding it, looking at it, using it blows the p7p out of the water. I've been swapping back and forth between the 2 and even at 3 cycles old the Samsung holds it's own.
