He wasnt talking about GPE devices, which are updated by Google. He was talking about those Moto G with Moto firmware, updated by Motorola.

Exactly. I know that I can convert stock XT1032 to GPE but I'd prefer to keep Motorola appslike Camera, FmRadio and Gallery, over the Google ones.

Yes its pushed by Moto but not developed and tested by it .. infact for all GPE devices .. google develops software and do testing on its part and then push it to OEMs. Then these OEM do short term testing on it and then they release it .
If Google haults these updates after finding any bug ,, then there is no way OEM will push OTA .Its all in google hand when it comes to GPE devices

If u don't like to read that long ,, a simple extract from that
"Updates for these devices are delivered by Google (bypassing carriers), but are supplied by the original device manufacturer.[3] Although, the updates are not supplied directly by Google, these devices receive Android updates along with the products from the Nexus line"
They are developed and Delivered by Google to OEM but finally pushed by OEM

From the same article :
"The result is that ultimately the OEMs are in fact responsible for updating these Google Play experience phones through successive Android releases, but through Google's infrastructure."

That's the point we all saying from start,,,,
Acc to him it was OEM develops GPE updates but we saying that it's developed by Google but it's the OEM decision to finally push the updates . If Google will not develop the updates then OEM can't update Gpe , in case HTC M7 Gpe update was halted and there users start complaining about this on HTC page ,, Htc then released statement that Google hasn't delivered update
Its ultimately OEM push the updates but not develops it

It is the OEM who builds the update. Then Google infrastructure is used to push the update. All Google does is ensure that OEMs stay as close to AOSP as possible. Google gives them the source code for the update early and then its the OEM's job to ensure that the update is built and is stable. That is the reason why I quoted that particular line in the first place.

OK this is my last reply,,..
For your reference there is one more article from arstechnica.com
http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2015...gle-play-edition-program-it-was-already-dead/
Some extracts
1. GPe phones were just as much for the benefit of OEMs as they were for developers and Android fans. Google developed the OS and the apps and actually delivered the updates to the phones, but each one of them required OEMs to supply the kernel and support the underlying hardware (including hardware-specific features that were available on some GPe phones but not others)
2.The program didn't exactly start strong, and it doesn't help that Google has spent the last two years making unique “stock” Android versions of devices mostly unnecessary
I can be wrong ,,,tell me

Okay. I stand corrected. I actually didn't know that.

[Q] Anybody lacking official updates lately?

I've noticed that I seem to be missing a few updates that I expected I'd be one of the first in line for as a Nexus 4 owner.
Firstly, the Master Key vulnerability fix doesn't seem to have reached my phone. At least, according to Bluebox security scanner
Secondly, I still have no visibility of the new Google Maps redesign
My phone is a generic operator free Nexus 4 running stock (custom kernel though). Anybody else still waiting, or have I fallen off the automatic updates conveyor belt so far?
Where are you from? App updates from Google reach different parts of the world at different times.

Based in the UK. If you've had the vulnerability patch already, did it come in the form of an app download or an ota update?
I'm in the UK and had the Maps update the day it was released.

Google hasn't released a patch for the vulnerability that's why you haven't gotten it. All they have done so far is release the code to their OEM's so they can patch their individual versions of Android. More than likely Nexus devices will get the patch in the 4.2.3 OTA whenever it gets released. In teh mean time their is an app in the Playstore, ReKey, that will address the vulnerability. Or you could just turn off install apps from unknown sources in the security settings which will also take care of the issue temporarily.
As for the other app updates they can take up to 2 weeks to deploy to all phones.

Android 5.1: Unwrapping a new Lollipop update

Google have started rolling out the Android 5.1 update.
No mentions of bug fixes on their blog post: http://officialandroid.blogspot.com.au/2015/03/android-51-unwrapping-new-lollipop.html
Today we are rolling out Android 5.1 - an update to Lollipop that improves stability and performance and offers a few new features like support for multiple SIM cards, Device Protection and high definition (HD) voice on compatible phones.
Whether you want to share your phone with a family member or better manage your mobile costs, Android Lollipop 5.1 now lets you use more than one SIM card on a device with multiple SIM slots.

With Device Protection, your lost or stolen device will remain locked until you sign in with your Google account - even if someone resets your device to factory settings. This feature will be available on most Android phones and tablets shipped with Android 5.1 in addition to Nexus 6 and Nexus 9.
High Definition voice calling is now on your mobile phone. Get crystal clear calling with HD Voice between compatible Android 5.1 devices like the Nexus 6 on T-Mobile or Verizon.

Android 5.1 Lollipop also provides enhancements such as the ability to join Wi-Fi networks and control of your paired Bluetooth devices directly from Quick Settings.
We hope you enjoy these tasty additions to Android Lollipop as you get more out of your Android phone and tablet.

Blackberry's Patching blog post

From the official Blackberry blog: http://blogs.blackberry.com/2015/11/managing-android-security-patching-for-priv/
One quote that stands out to me is this: "While BlackBerry will work with its go-to-market partners on approval and delivery of hotfixes, BlackBerry has the ability to directly patch all PRIV variants and will do so when necessary to protect users and enterprises."
Does this mean Blackberry is now alone with Apple with the ability to directly push an update to carrier bought phones? I know Nexus devices get updates right away, but I think I'm correct in saying you can't get one through a carrier.
Going through a carrier? I'll believe it when I see it!
My biggest concern is that they'll push updates for a year, maybe a year and a half and then stop. It's great that the device is locked down but without an alternative method of securing the device, e.g. another rom with updated Android patches, that'd be a sorry state of affairs.

[NEWS] Moto g5 WILL recive Android 8!

I chatted in the Moto LiveChat, and asked about Android 8. They confirmed that they will bring android 8 to our devices :laugh:

No official Android Pie update coming...

For those who are expecting Android Pie in a future update, LG just released a new info about the expected devices that will be updated for this Android version - Q2 2019
Without any surprise, G6 is not in that list:
Original: https://www.lge.co.kr/lgekor/contents/mobile/swUpgradeDetail.do?swSeq=1070~
Google Translate: https://translate.google.pt/transla...contents/mobile/swUpgradeDetail.do?swSeq=1070
So... for those who still are waiting for a official update, better start looking for a custom ROM or new phone :crying:
They said in q3. Anyway oreo, pie is basically same **** for the end user, the usual apps will work the same, same functions, etc
The site is not available anymore. Have you found other sources for LG G6 not getting Pie?

Greetings G6'ers. I am on Stock Oreo and I am experiencing various lags and stutters. I have done a factory reset but to no avail. Will a reset via PC and LG Bridge be any different?
When the Pie update comes should I install it via OTA?
I just got this reply from LG.grrr!!
"Good morning Matthew,*
I am sorry to say that Android 8.0 Oreo is the last software update that the LG G6 will likely receive. Frustratingly, head office do not share software update release dates nor their recipient models with us here at LG UK customer services, so we cannot confirm definitively that this is the case. However, I have consulted our technicians, and they do believe that Android 9.0 Pie will be primarily and exclusively rolled out to our 2018 and 2019 models. It is therefore improbable that the LG G6 will receive Android 9.0 Pie.
I apologise profusely for any disappointment or frustration caused.*

Wow am I surprised :-/ NOT
LG's strategy is to have an upgrade cycle so slow, so that suddenly 2 years pass from a model's release (even though Pie has already been out for a year) then they give an excuse they don't support it any more because its an old model.
It's not very good service given that the phone was a flagship model.
Oh well, the phone still serves me well, but it would be nice to get the latest upgrade.....
i thought LG promised pie for LG G6.. And the LG G5 wont recessive any more updates...
To anyone disappointed ,THIS INFORMATION IS WRONG
there have already been official Lg g6 Android 9 beta builds released.you'll get pie latest by the end of September. Everyone just needs to wait
I got the same reply by lg support center, and they are saying convincedly that g6 will be stuck on oreo 8.0
What's the truth?
the truth is Lg will update the G6 to android 9 pie, Lg Korea just has no communication to the lg uk so they are under the impression it won't get any updates as there is no information on it on their servers & from their software support team.
it will come 100% this year.
That's not even Oreo let alone Pie. You can tell by the boot screen. Its supposed to say thinQ which is what the LG G6 has been rebranded to.
It's a beta, therefore incomplete.. the beta will likely not have the full branding stuff. Not saying that it's real or fake, just saying that's not an indicator.
