Nexus 9 Added To Dev Preview Page! - Nexus 6 General

The Nexus 9 was just added the the Android 7.1 dev preview page, maybe we'll see the shamu build today! Not too excited myself as 7.1 isn't worlds different from what we have, but who knows!

Maybe We get only Final release...

Our 6 is not getting it. End of discussion

I'm fine with that honestly. It's not an overhaul so I'm good waiting myself! Not like the crazy storm that happened here when 7.0 was released lol probably because it was a major update!

Wrong. As of the moment I type this we're still expected to receive the final product even though we aren't getting a developer preview. This is according to the developer overview page on developer.android.com. Now, it's impossible to determine what happens in the future. Google may decide not to update the Nexus 6, in which case developers on the forums here will take over, just as they have for all the other Nexus devices.
What we don't need here is people making baseless accusations without facts to back them up.

Glad someone said it! The truth is, nobody here knows because only Google makes those decisions!

Google shutting down N1 forums

According to Android Central, Google is going to shutdown their Nexus One forums on November 1st, making them Read Only.
Semi-true.
Whilst there is an announcement to that effect, it also tells you where to post afterwards. Basically they're moving them to another section.
Not that they're really N1 specific anyway, there's no mention of N1 in their title anywhere.

It's not semi-true, it's completely true.
"The Nexus One forum will be archived and become read-only on November 1st. Please see the Nexus One Terms of Sale for details regarding support. If you have questions about using applications on your Nexus One post them to the Google Mobile Forum."
Google says they're shutting down the N1 section and you argue with them And apparently you missed the HUGE words NEXUS ONE at the top of the page, so the forums they are(were) indeed Nexus One specific:

Hmm...I wonder if they disbanded the google nexus phone team.
That's not good in terms of updates for you guys. =/

I was just wondering that myself....a strange time to do this with Gingerbread right around the corner. Then again it's still the development phone...although even that could change at any time I suppose...no guarantees in life. Doesn't matter to me tho: CM will take care of our Gingerbread needs.
There it goes the "HTC Magic afair" again...
I´s normal that they get better hardware in which develop new features for their OS...
But dismantleying the Nexus crap is against our understanding and negatively impacts on the trust we got in the Google Phone
I was a little bit scared as well when I initially read this, but then I also came to the same realization as MuckenMire; "Why should I be scared?" My N1 is rooted, and as long as people love the N1, there will be plenty of dev's out there to give the latest and greatest and even better than greatest ROM's. Sure, at some point, the phone's hardware will cease to meet the minimum requirements of the then current high performance version of Android, but I hope and am pretty confident that there will be a new phone that is just as easy to mod as the N1 by then.

As far as I know, gingerbread isn't even out yet. Just the sdk.

Naw not really
Pretty sure Google wants to have the Nexus S come out first on the 16th and then OTA the update to us on the 17th or so
Yeah, ask again next Thursday. No reason to believe we'll see it before then.

Unless the famous Football has anything to do with it. If I don't see a leak for the nexus by next wednesday, I'd be surprised
I'm pretty wrapped up in senseui 2.0 right now, gingerbread can wait
What's the point of waiting just for the next day to release the ota for n1? There's no real gain in that for google.
I suspect we'll have to wait longer than 1 day.

How about they sell more Nexus S devices because geeks can't wait to get their hands on Gingerbread so they rush out to buy the phone anyways? Surely we all know it's coming to the Nexus S but look at the thread title, people are going nuts for Gingerbread as it is! LOL
Surely they could just do what Apple does and release the update the day before for the older phones but i guess we'll see

There is a good reason to wait.
Now when the SDK is out all the developers can test their apps against the Gingerbread and fix all the bugs and incompatibilities.
What do you think would happen, if goog realeases their 2.3 update and some popular apps don't work anymore? This forum would literally explode with screams like "fix this immediately or else", "I hate google", "gingerbread killed my cat" and so on. Why google would do that to themselves?
Jw but how is doing the dial in update thing different from the check for updates in the settings?

I'm sure he's doing both just in case one yields different results. Supposedly I've heard that the Settings Updater doesn't always check, but caches the answer for an allotted time. Doing a "checkin" actually goes out and pings google (or wherever) and comes back with a result after a few seconds. The Settings app just flat out tells you no.
@Rusty is says there is under the about phone section

No there isn't. That section doesn't 'check' for updates, it tells you the result of the last system check for updates, which is done automatically, or forced through the dialer.
Going to that part of the settings does not force a check.
Damn, beat me too it Clarky

The point would be so that the Nexus S can be marketed as the first phone with Gingerbread.
Yeah they will probably either delay it to just after Dec 16th or release it some time next week. I'm betting on just after though.

True, but its not like they would lose any buyers anyway.
The N1 is only sold as a dev phone. And how many ppl have a N1? compared to SGS or others...
Also, like when they released froyo...many apps didnt work with 2.2 and had to be updated.
There are alot of devs out there with a N1 as a devphone. Giving out 2.3 before the NS release thus giving time for the devs to update their apps before launch would give android better publicity. And happier customers
I dont know if this is an issue with 2.3 though...
(I know the SDK is out)
I was referring to 1 day vs 1 week or more. More seems more appropriate, as you all say.
The only place I'll be "checkin" with is the Development section chef's.

Yes they are late.
Yes we have been misinformed by the chatsupport.
Yes we are unpatience..
So give it a few days (perhaps weeks) and contact again.
No need to sign a petition right now.

Later as in months? Sure we can all agree on that. Sony used to be pretty good on updates but lately they've been slacking.
A petition will not do anything in all honesty. It's a waste of time.

This is just pathetic. If you want timely updates you should have bought a Nexus. You are not entitled to anything. Grow up.

You purchased an OEM device, thus you will have to wait till it goes through the long process like any other OEM stock ROM. Plenty of companies or OEMs do not give information on their updates until a week or two before they are pushed out to carriers.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4
I have to agree with all the above comments, the update will be out when SONY are ready I think it is too early for a petition thread maybe in a few months if there is no update this thread would be useful. SONY will just ignore the petition rite now, be patient, otherwise a Nexus is the way to go for timely updates.

Official ETA for Lollipop by OPO

Hey friends,
We know there is a lot of excitement in the community surrounding the Lollipop updates for the One, and for good reason. We are just as excited as you are.
We never intended to keep you waiting. Unfortunately, we ran into some unexpected roadblocks. First, there was an unforeseen OS signing issue, which has recently been resolved. Our camera module had stability issues on Lollipop, and we had to rebuild it for compatibility. Several other crucial drivers, including our Wi-Fi drivers, also needed to be updated to work flawlessly with the upgrade. Admittedly, it took a little more time than we had planned, but we only release updates that we are proud of; that means refusing to take shortcuts or deliver sub-par experiences.
With all of that in mind, here are the official release dates for Android Lollipop on the OnePlus One:
CM 12S: The official OTA update for the OnePlus One will be released on or before March 30, 2015
OxygenOS: The official release of our own Lollipop-based ROM will be available for download on or before March 27, 2015
To show you how serious we are about this commitment to our community, we are prepared to put our money where our mouth is. If we miss either one of these deadlines, we will give away five (5) 64GB OnePlus One devices to our fans. Reply to this thread to be eligible.
It’s our little way of saying thank you for being patient and for joining us on our journey to create amazing, user-driven experiences.
Never Settle.

Those in the beta program had to sign a non-disclosure agreement with ZTE. So close your eyes and imagine Nougat. That's what it looks like.
Can a moderator please close this thread? According to the NDA that somehow got posted on here, people that are a part of the beta program are not even allowed to tell people they are a part of the beta program. Fishing like this just seems to get people wound up over nothing.

If I was ZTE I would've done a completely public beta or leaked it myself. Hype is free marketing and for a no-carrier phone it's the only way to get people to buy.
Don't worry my good sir, the release is closer than you think.
