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

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

Hello people, I can't patch my device to February Patch.
I'm stuck to January one.
I've tried EVERYTHING (updating Google Play Services via APK or signing to beta tester on Google Play).
At the end, I've done a factory reset, too.
My device IS NOT Rooted, and bootloader is LOCKED.
Someone can help me, please?

Me too. Brand new Xiaomi, just bought today. After setup, it downloaded two updates, Dezember and January update.
Maybe we should wait a little longer.
Wait for march update?? Sigh.
My wife's device too, same issue.
You mean you don't see an OTA update option? If so just wait a few days, it gets rolled out in batches. You are just unlucky.

Ah.
So there are no updates for people that are on January, then?
Have you got some links where I can read about the stopped distribution, please?
Xiaomi has a weird habit of randomly cancelling released updates. Has done that before, will do that again. Chill out and just wait. And never buy anything based on Android One from them ever again - this company treats the MI A1 as an unwanted child. The February security update still has no official changelog 10 days after release.

I understand. Thanks for explaining me that.
Yep, I have 2 A1's, one for me and one for my wife, and neither has gotten the February update. I've asked Xiaomi about it through 2 FB groups, through the Feedback app and through email to their global support. I have not received an answer from any of those avenues: nada...crickets.
Honestly, I would rather a company pull the update than continue to distribute ones with major issues, but the total lack of communication is disheartening. I think the A1 is by far the best price/performance phone I've ever owned, and had high hopes of Xiaomi being my new 'goto' manufacturer. That is in jeopardy if they continue to step all over the whole idea of Android One and continue doing things without communicating why those things are needed. In the case of Android phones, no news is NOT good news! I will give them some slack, for a while, because the A1 is what, 6 months old? and it is their first Android One phone, so maybe it takes a bit for the need to 'do it right' to trickle down to the devs and working stiffs in the company. But that is only possible if it comes from upper management, and that is communicated by them. So far, all I've really seen in such communication is MIUI, which is a total no go for me. Get your stuff together Xiaomi. You've built a nice base of customers who might never have bought your products with the Mi A1. If you leave them high and dry, you will lose them just as quickly!
It's a nice phone indeed. But based on my experience, I wouldn't count on them communicating with users about software updates.

Considering a total lack of communications in regard to the MI A1, I am not buying anything from Xiaomi ever again.
For six months since its release:
We haven't had a single official announcement about the MI A1 development process
We haven't seen a single official changelog (MIUI forums is not the right place for changelogs - Xiaomi's own website is). Some updates have been published without any changelogs whatsoever, e.g. the last one
We haven't been notified even once about updates being revoked (and it has happened at least four times already)
We haven't seen a single comment in regard to its bugs. All feature requests have been rejected by the MIUI forums moderators.
The MI A1 is not fully Android 8 compatible: no camera2API, no Project Treble support
It has extremely horrible low light camera performance
Updates are randomly delayed
Clearly this company couldn't care less about the MI A1.

The page you linked provides an excellent summary of issues. Thanks for that. :good: I agree with you that perhaps the MIUI forums are not the best place for A1 bug tracking though, and it would be nice if Xiaomi actually paid attention to customers and provided a place for updates and feedback. Unfortunately, many users create their own issues, then scream loudly for the manufacturer to 'fix' an issue they created, or just plain complain incessantly about the lack of 'features' that were never part of the deal to begin with, and this may lead manufacturers to be less inclined to offer interactive tools.
While my A1's do not have a number of those issues, it does point to the fact that the A1 environment is varied, probably due to different software combinations from the many different locals it is sold in. Hopefully Xiaomi will get it's stuff together and provide some answers. Continuing to ignore customers is never a good solution. It also points out that if I want some features Xiaomi has neglected (EIS and Camera2 API), I am going to have to root the phone, which I was hoping to avoid.
So far, the update experience with the A1 has not been slooth, and I am a bit worried that the update to P may not happen at all, or be very painful if it does. While I won't go as far as to say I won't buy any more Xiaomi products, if another company comes along that offers excellent price/performance and does a decent job at communication and updates, it will certainly be on my radar.

I'm a bit fed up about Xiaomi. But I'm very satisfied about my device.
I've got Samsung S2, S4, S7 and now Mi A1.
And I can tell you: I'm good with my choice.
I can buy a Xiaomi Device EVERY YEAR with some money I've spent with Samsung. And I love Samsung. But I've been waiting for Oreo for several months.
Mi A1 lacks NFC, I hope my next phone will have it onboard.
Today, L04C567B396 appeared on FF, the third update in a month time with no approval for installation for the earlier B394 so far.
With this updae comes two additions and one improvement to the EMUI features plus a new June google security patch.
Again, with this update a hope of eminent EMUI 8 (Oreo) is lost at least for a couple of months if not impossible any time soon in my opinion.
Let's hope that my guess is wrong.
Tell me what do you think in the comments below.
Anyways here's the B396 changelog:
This update reduces Phone Manager's cleanup time to less than one minute, and adds more scenarios to support the one-touch split-screen feature.
[Dual windows]
Adds a button in the Recent apps cards. Touch it to split the screen. This operation is only available for apps that support the split-screen feature.
[System]
Optimizes Phone Manager's cleanup speed and scope. A single cleanup can now be completed in less than one minute.
Optimizes data usage management by allowing you to specify the start date of your data plan.
[Call]
Optimizes Quick calling by enabling speaker mode by default. Press and hold the volume down button to enable Quick calling.
[Security]
Integrates Google security patches released in Jun 2018 for improved system security.
----------------
Update 1: Honor skipped B394 to B395 and stated seeding.

Who cares? By the time it's approved it'll be end of July possibly August. Chris (head Dev at honor USA) says they have no control over when it gets approved. We are getting Oreo, and he's getting responses from the beta group about the bootloader issue to give to the higher ups.

I was thinking the same.
Honor support told me we would get it 'very soon' 2 months ago and its likely another two months if they have only just started alpha/beta testing.
Not sure I agree that is 'very soon'.
Personally I'd prefer lineageos so we get future support, but haven't read the other threads to understand why dev support is limited.
Perhaps 'Chris' can release the kernel source for Oreo on the Honor 8, so others can start development in parallel with Honor, or release the camera blobs or whatever is stopping the camera's working.
I think we better stop creating new threads for each patch for specific model .,. its getting really boring.,., i myself created several threads for the patches but no charm now.., especially after oreo in tow..,
admins if we could join all the threads under patch update.,

I doubt that information earlier on that it has went bankrupt, although, there hasn't been any feedback and post on social media by the manufacturer.
Let's keep our fingers crossed now that you have given one positive indication of receiving OTA from them recently. I really want the company to stay alive and produce more Maze Alpha models.
It seems that InnJoo has taken over the sale of the Maze Alpha and rebranded it to InnJoo Maze:

Wow! I hope InnJoo Will keep it the way it is and improve on it. Maze Alpha has really set the pace for budget phone with some good hardware and it should remain like that. Another thing, if InnJoo must keep Maze Alpha it must regularly update the software for us or give us a custom ROM.
There is not Maze Alpha X on the list. Why is that?

One can only speculate. Might be an inventory thing. Maybe Maze needs InnJoo to take the remaining stock off its hands, before selling(?) its factory - if we assume the company is bankrupt. No official information has been put forward, which means negotiations are probably taken place atm.
For custom roms to ever be possible, we need the kernel sources. I asked Maze last year, when I placed my presell order for the Alpha. No conclusive answer was given. I think Team M.A.D. approached Maze and tried to obtain the kernel sources and work on the phone, but was unsuccessful, unfortunately. A quick Google search reveals that InnJoo not really upload kernel sources - I might be wrong - which means we're likely to be stuck with the current firmware/future official updates.
FYI I emailed INNJOO 3-4 days ago, about this and got no reply.

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.
