How many people still use android 6.x ?

Hi,
On many forum I can see people with issue trying to update with beta release , trying to downgrade with no sucess, so, am I alone to wait for Huawei release of Nougat ?
No, you are not alone. But it appears that it is wrong to say so.
Hi, i'm waiting for the official Update. I'm comming from an Google Nexus 5x with Android 7.1.1 and there is no big Reason to update to an Beta Release.
I am still using marshmallow.. waiting for final version of nougat.
ok , I will stay in the old user team ; ) I'm using nova launcher , don't really like EMUI interface , what beta release ,or mod , could add to my phone ?
I don't know why but it seems to be too many / much issue with this beta release , I need my phone , 100 % working and that's what I already have , I just hope a nougat release for 2017 : )
Hello
I use b336 + rom revolution.
For me, no problem, but I'm also waiting for the beta version ota.
I want to see the difference.

I upgraded to Nougat on my CAN-L01 variant and the only problem I have faced is the brightness changing in some apps even with the auto feature turned off but this seems to be a problem on other Huawei devices as well. The phone itself on Nougat is great! It's fast and opens apps flawlessy and I couldn't be happier, the Ram manager could do with a improvement but aside from this I'm 100% satisfied.
Hi...
Then,you do not have a 100%fully working firmware as mentioned in the first post...mine too is working well but...
Cheers ?

It's working fine and as I said the brightness problem has been on other Huawei devices for a while now and I had it on Marshmallow as well. The builds of Nougat from the firmware finder are not (as of yet anyway) the final builds official released from Huawei and are beta releases as far as I'm aware.
So,your brivhtnes problem ,is the phone itself ? Like maybe a bad sensor in your device ?

I'm not sure, all I know is there are other Huawei devices which have had the same problem whilst on Marshmallow and Nougat builds.

Android O or N? Which one are you using?

Like the title says, which one are you using?
Just switched again to O.
N
Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
Currently O but had some bugs
Choppy bluetooth - can live with this
Data connections (both mobile and Wifi) go dead and needs a reboot - half making me want to switch back
Camera wont record videos - Definitely too bad to live with.
Am downloading both N latest factory and O DP2 factory today so will try a full factory clean flash and see how that is with O. If same bad bugs then will revert to N.

Otherwise pretty stable but quite laggy.

After clean flash of factory image video seemed to work fine so have now relocked BL and am reinstalling everything. If still big problems will debate going back to N but lagginess and BT issues i can live with, will see if my data connection issues keep happening now too.
I was trying android O for a few days, I started to get kinda bored of those problems and finally decided to come back to Android N, now, all problems are gone and my phone runs faster than ever, this beta is not for me, last time, the Android N beta used to work really good, I will wait for the final version.
Froyo
Android O - running without problems.
android o it's awesome the only problem so far is the Bluetooth (file sharing only)sound works great
the battery sometimes is stable and sometimes no 2-4 sot time!
Help , please HELP ! I am in troubles.
I am an expat in China and have to use VPN to operate smoothly my Nexus 5X.
Until June 9 , 2017 I was happily using Nougat 7.1.2 , no problems at all. When it was made public Android 8.0.0 DP#3 is in Beta I was strongly tempted to enrole to android.com/beta and download 8.0.0 . All went smooth. The "O' OS worked smoothly .... except my VPN (Psiphon) which was continuously stopping and crashing. I've attributed this to Psiphon not being compatible (yet) with the 8.0.0 . As the whole thing became useless , I decided next day (June 10th , 2017) to go back to Nougat 7.1.2 . However , the "magic" of reversing did not work and I decided to perform Factory Reset. After factory reset and to my complete dismay , I am now left with "stock" Android 8.0.0 Beta on my phone.
I am unable to download the "reverse" protocol to 7.1.2 and unable to download a VPN. I am stuck and desperate. Please help me. Thank you.
I know , it's all my fault but still hope to get some suggestions . :crying:
Please write to my PM ..... [email protected] or [email protected].
Thank you.
Best regards ,
Tom

Need an advice from fellow users

Hello everyone , it's my first time doing a thread in this forum , i hope i contribute in this community a lot in the future.
So i ordered a Max Pro M1 and it will arrive in a week , before that i really did my research on every update that Asus provided this phone since may 2018, the problem is since last month and the pie update, many users didn't seem quite happy with the performance of the software , so is there any chance i can have just the updates without the Pie upgrade? and do you recommend if i install another ROM ?
Thank you for reading and i will really be happy if you give me your opinion on the matter. ?
Just update the phone as usual, but when it tells you there's a Pie update, don't install it. Besides, Pie hasn't arrived until now. It's been released before but it was pulled back because it was very unstable.
Personally, when I buy this device (I plan to) I'll just go ahead and install a custom ROM. I mean, that's the reason I get an Android phone, to be able to customise the software.
I am staying on Oreo. Last version is 340 and it is also considered the best version. My colleague bought this phone last week and received 340 update too, so I think that Pie (050) is not in distribution for now.

LG G6 (H870 - Europe) : how to block PIE updates and still update security issues ?

LG G6 is a great smartphone for taking pictures ... and a few other things like using it as a standard phone.
Mine is working fine on android 8.0 (Oreo) EU stock, with bootloader legally unlocked and the infamous lock screen.
From what I read here and there, it is nonsense to update it to Android Pie (9.0). No gain and many pains !
In other words, I intend to keep it under Oreo 8 and try to update it for security patches !
a) how to lock updates to Android PIE ?
b) how to keep updating security patches ?
Is this Mission "impossible" ?
For your info, I know there are alternative ROMS, but from what I read, none works as well as a STOCK ROM ...
I think Pie is no longer supported at all and there weren't too many security patches for Oreo so far.
So after 36 months everything stops ?
No solution ?
So Google and Brands invented the OS that really sets the game ? 2 years and bye bye ?
I'm not a Go-Go Buyer !
It would be fine with me if i'm wrong. And there would be a third big update in the form of Android 10 and if they still release security patches for 9.
Mine is from May, Android 9 of course,so there still is some support.
(and i mistook Oreo and Pie in my post from May, nothing beats plain numbers...)

Thanks "leCorbusier" for your optimistic message.
Android 10 LG STOCK for LG G6 ? You must be dreaming !
Besides this, just remember that I want to block Pie update (check OP) and still get security updates, but for Oreo !!!

G6 received PIE update after 1 year, when PIE was released. Pie update for G6 and May security pacth was last update. LG has bad software support. Forget about Android 10 for G6 from LG. Only way to get Android 10 is custom ROMs

I understand your concern, security updates are more important to me. This is why I use custom roms. But it's also my experience that there are definitely custom roms running android 10 that are way better than LG's stock roms, especially Oreo. I don't know where you read the contrary, unless you have a model that isn't well supported.
Honestly, though, the bonus features are just a bonus to me. Having up-to-date security updates are the most important to me. I buy LG phones after they are discounted, and also only after I see the community begin to support specific models, since I know LG is awful about support.
