Has anyone heard anything about us getting the 1.4 OS update?
No, but we should get it.

Thanks for your understanding and sorry for the inconvenience.

The same with the Huawei watch. The only 2 watches with a speaker and seemly the last 2 that will get updated.
I have been keeping up on the various watches and lots of the others are getting OTAs already. I am not sure if they are waiting for the big CES event to announce Speaker Support or wait for a new gen of watches to be released. Kind of weird. Something is going on behind closed doors.
Or, since these are the only ones to have speakers they may still be working out the bugs in the audio.
Shouldnt this be done by google?
I thought the system comes from google, not from Asus? Unlike smartphones...

Pretty sure it's the same method as Phones, Minus carrier alterations. Asus must still apply drivers and such. Could be wrong, but it seems the most likely. Having google develop drivers for all the different watches is madness
I thought Google restricted the wear system much more than the smartphones....
They did. Notice how no one puts their ****ty UI on top of google's?

Excellent thank you Sziehr. I hope it's true about this weekend.
Looks like they edited that post today, no mention now of a weekend statement.
Yea, they have removed the "this weekend" part.

WHAT? Are you sure? This would be the first time I've heard the Zenwatch 2 getting the update. Also for anybody else reading this, capture the OTA URL via adb logcat or debug dump in the Android Wear application!
Yes. I am sure. I have the smaller variant.

Pics of the updated software version for proof? (Settings/About/build number)
On Google+ theres a post from Germany:
"Now running v 1.4.0.2576 (6.0.1.)"
Reminder:

Would it really kill them to post the update to their site when they release it to OTA? Minor league Asus, as usual.

Noob questions - can you please provide more explanation or steps? Mine is rooted and upgrade failed with Andy. What do you mean by apps are frozen?
Mine tried to update and failed ( I forgot to unroot prior so I am hoping that is what it was since nothing else was changed ). After it failed I unrooted and tried to update again but now it is saying there is no update.

Some people had been suffering for 10 months because a POS company ASUS can't make a product right. THey charge us 500 dollars for the crappiest product in the history of electronics. Now they can't even make a right OTA? I would love to see a company like this go out of business. There should be class action lawsuit against asus. I really hope asus goes bankrupt and saves future customers from this misery.

This is a good question. I checked out their site in preparation for when they post the update. Not shockingly, there are "instructions" of how to install the update, except the "instructions" don't actually tell you how to do it! What crap. To prove my point, here are their "instructions" for the last firmware update. It looks like the steps to install the update stop after telling you how to check your current version. Thanks, Asus!
Steps of Update:
1. Check SW version of your Eee Pad Transformer Prime TF201*
2. Download Eee Pad Transformer Prime TF201 Firmware: V9.4.2.28 Only for WW SKU and Update version of SOP (From “Manual” Item)
※Firmware update cannot do *SKU conversion* and downgrade version.
Wrong SKU may cause update failure, You can only update your SW version on the Same SKU
*How to check SW version of your Eee Pad Transformer Prime TF201?
Path: [Settings]-->[About tablet]-->Build number
Example: You should be able to see the build number WW_epad-9.X.X.X_2012xxxx, where “WW” means SKU.

The OTA has been rolling out for all of 12 hrs at best. They are required to release SOURCE CODE not an update file. I had the update failed to download message and it has since downloaded. As it turns out a lot of people were trying to download at the same time. Weird I know.

From Wikipedia " Asus - world's fifth-largest PC vendor by 2011 unit sales" so do you reckon they're going to go bankrupt because they shafted us by selling a defective product?? Somehow I doubt it

For all having the failed attempt at OTA update this is what I did to fix it.
I did 1 hard reset (Turn off prime, remove charger, hold down volume key and then power on to do a cold/hard reset, followed by going to application manager and clearing cache for "DMClien" and then I checked for update and it downloaded successfully.
It worked for me.

edit: oh no, it only downloaded! got the red andy
edit 2: Did some digging. You can find the file "last_log" in /cache/recovery and it can give you an idea of what went wrong. In my install, it aborted because keyboard.apk was modified (keyboard multi-browser mod in dev section). just restored this, will see if i can force the update again.
...
was able to force the update again by copying dlpkgfile and the echo command. it's updating now

3 hours after my first try and I'm finally on Jelly bean!!!

The dlpkgfile is posted by another user in that thread. I downloaded it and followed the method posted. All went perfectly.
Why do the users have to go through so much trouble just to get an OTA to work? Why? Asus, I hope you burn in hell. The schittiest company to have existed on planet. Can they not do one thing right? I mean so much trouble and hacking just to get an OTA to work? F U asus. All the engineers involved in Prime and this project should be stoned to death.
A number of blogs/tech sites are saying invitations have been sent out for a "Google Play" event in New York tomorrow (24th October) at 19.00hrs local time (0:00hrs 25th October BST (UK time)). That part seems to be definite.
Tech Radar say that they were told by Google it was just a meet & greet event, so no launches. But what some others are saying is that Kitkat 4.4, Nexus 5 & Nexus 10 2 might be launched at this event. Kitkat I think is an outside possibility, Nexus 5 & Nexus 10 2 not so much.
So far we have only rumours/speculation as to when these products (& OS) might be launched. I'm not stating this as gospel. But I thought it worth posting just in case even if it is only for Kitkat. And people would at least be forewarned in case they live stream it.

Sorry but these websites (IBTimes, Christian Post, etc) it's referring to are little better than a webcrawler putting together information that looks kind of like an article. They frequently just make up random crap to get clicks for their site and vicariously, ads. I would wait for a site such as android central or droid life to make some kind of announcement. As of right now, all official information is that the event will feature no news at all, and is just a small get together.

Oh there's nothing wrong with that. I'm doing the same thing. I wish they'd turn around and say "psych! Everything will will be there! But I don't see them doing that.
Now that Apple has released the iPad Air, it puts them on the defensive end though. The more time that passes, the more likely people will overlook the Nexus 10. I'm not entirely sure Google cares though. They've already infiltrated the Apple ecosystem with most of their apps. Google's strategy is certainly one of slow, constant persistence. These tablets and phones are a kickback to people who support them I think, not a direct competitor with any other brands tablets. That's how it seems to me anyways.
Hopefully they don't keep us waiting too long. I sold the N10 in anticipation for this, and I've been waiting patiently for a while now. Come on Google.... don't wander into the world of Valve time....
We;; is 8:38 and no news about the event. It hasn't been streamed on youtube like other times and thers no updated blog about it either. Also theres been lots of errors with google services today? Coincidence? or could they have had some issues? Hopefully we'll know what went on in the conference by tomorrow but it most likely wan't any of the devices since it wasn't public.
Very suspicious that we've heard nothing I think.
I wonder if they did something huge and its all under embargo until a certain time?
Its quite odd to not hear anything from any of the major tech sites.

Just google it.. I just read about this myself and came here to see if there was any discusion going... does this mean we wont see android wear 2.0?
I saw the news articles too. Asus here in Europe was surprised about the news and didn't know anything about it. They said it was going just fine with the Zenwatch Sales. So I don't know how true this news is, and I think the update still will come soon. And Google makes the updates, not Asus like everyone thinks apperantly.
My concern is who inside that company will oversee the release of aw 2.0 for existing products.

I assume that someone will oversee the release of AW 2.0. My concern is that what happens when I want AW 2.1 and so on. I bought this watch last year knowing that my Gear Live would not get the 2.0 update, but I hope that my Zenwatch does not follow the same path of not getting the 2.1 or 3.0 (and so on) update when it is announced and released.
It is not confirmed that they will discontinue the line. Article at Android Police (http://www.androidpolice.com/2017/05/15/asus-reportedly-done-android-wear-zenwatch-line/) and the original article/post by Digitimes (http://www.digitimes.com/news/a20170515PD202.html) say "reportedly" and "likely". The report comes from "sources of Taiwan's supply chain" which is not a direct source. Don't raise a panic just yet.

I hope not. The zenwatch line is great for people who want a cheap, good quality smartwatch.
Yeah, for a no-frills "gets it done and still looks nice" watch, the ZW2 was hard to beat. I'm tempted to get a second one as a backup even if they aren't discontinued. That said, it would be nice to get to at least AW 2.0.

Agreed. I do think it would benefit from a rotating crown, but other than that, it's pretty much the perfect. I don't need a heart rate sensor or 4G, and I prefer the square form factor anyways. If they do discontinue the Zenwatch line, I hope someone jumps in.

This is only for the orphan children of the Moto 360 Sport. Just so we don't have to read about what we don't have yet. Once we get the update we can close this thread or keep it separate if any issues are different. Or do I dare say.. "If we ..." ?

I'm not sure why they did it this way but... there are some issues and perhaps since we have the better watch they are making sure we are covered and have minimal issues.
And to add insult to injury another 2.0 thread has been started in the General area. Is there a way to roll back if we hate it?

What I assume happened is that they began working on the update (most likely building in hopes that it would need only slight tweaking for the sport), and towards the end of it's release, they realized that the sport has some different watch faces(I mean if they're gonna take this long to roll out anyway it's not as far fetched to assume the forgot something like this). So they are (most likely) currently building for the sports differences. Another theory I had was that perhaps it is a build for both devices, and the sport users ( perhaps bc we are the minority in the Moto 360 clan) that use this site simply have not received it yet; that's assuming it's a controlled rollout, of course.
Since the Sport has a GPS, probably needs more fine tunning than the 360 2nd gen, but I also think that's a matter of days to get it too, probably next week.

Dang. Well, they have today, tomorrow, and the next day to release it, or they be late. Not as if they care though ??
Oh yeah I forgot about the deadline. Well we shall see. I thought I was in a rush but after seeing some of the issues not so much anymore. But of course I'll install it immediately.

Same. I bought mine only about a month and a half ago, so I think the battery problems won't be as bad on me
Hey guys... any news? Moto_Support keep replying me the same when I ask...
"We don't provide release dates, but we're working to roll it out to all eligible devices globally as quickly as possible."
I was expecting to get it with 360 2nd. gen users, but still nothing

No release date has been set yet. Some are saying be careful what you wish for since there is no way to roll back. I think more people regret the upgrade than are thrilled at this point.

Well I know that im looking forward to this greatly; between being able to respond with voice(a feature I never could get to work well(??I think Motorola's speakers and microphones sick in general)) and Google assistant, there are a lot of features that I really want that Trump any complaints there might be. If batteries are such an issue, I have a 2nd charger I impulse bought; I don't mind charging it for about 45 minutes( heck that's a little over 50% from my experience). I think these features make Android Wear a decent competitor. Bc rn tizen is kicking AW's butt.

I know it's not everyone that is complaining, just that some of the things that were touted are not working correctly. For one, notifications are problematic and they can't figure out how to get them to show like they did on 1.5. I believe that GA is also not working correctly and if not running (huge battery drain) will not function. No time in dock mode, no double tap to enter theater mode, turning off at 45% or so.. But I think these things are not universal, however enough that they are being reported to the chagrin of users. But I'll probably install it if it ever comes after I see what you report.

I think that some of those issues probably originate from the age of their devices. There's probably were bought close to their release, and I bought mine close to 2 months ago. But I'm installing as soon as I can and I'll post my experiences
Guess Motorola doesn't really care about deadlines...
Hey no news about AW2.0 for the 360 sport?

Not yet.
Edit.. I'm thinking now of refusing the update and selling this Sport with 1.5 for double what I bought it for since 2.0 is such a bust. Just kidding naturally but without a way to downgrade perhaps not so far off. On the Moto forum the mod removed a link to downgrade. He's a jerk though. Any links for a downgrade? I couldn't find it on first look.

I've given up on rooting. I do wonder what effect Oreo will have on the battery life.
We shall see!
Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk Pro.
Okay, so now it's in the "Manufacturer Development" stage. Has anyone followed these (or have inside knowledge) enough to know how long, roughly, the timeframe of these stages take?
No idea here ... but I do know they only recently added the V30 to the Oreo list .... when it was clearly out for months in Korea.
So I wouldnt gamble on a timeframe for release - just that we will get it sometime.
UPDATE! https://twitter.com/Redoregon69/status/982024036980084736?s=19

So we're looking at about two weeks? A part of me hopes we'll crack root first.

We'll see. I'm not betting on root, though.

About 8 months apparently..... :/

Mind you even as a new device and updates in korea nothing was listed as it being able to be updated on the tmobile support page.
When I asked a customer service rep about it the said "we get our info from the manufacture"
At this point it will be my last ever phone purchased thru t-mobile. Not that they care about original customers at all. They are more interested in snagging people from the other 3 carriers.

We're well into April. Very strange.
Ok, changed today from "Manufacturer Development" to "Update in Development". We'll see what that means. But at least they're updating the page!
Funny how that stage doesn't exist...

Not great news for you guys https://www.phonearena.com/news/T-Mobile-LG-V30-Android-8.0-Oreo-update-delayed_id104125
I would take this article with a grain of salt. The only evidence they show is the original tweet with RedOregon69 from the 5th. Based on the original tweet, we should see the update this week.

That is an old story and it references the Tweet about the update being in 2 weeks while he should be this week.
Here is an article posted on TMo News dated April 6th with the Twitter conversation dated April 5th. The author of the Phone Arena article should have actually done his research instead of being lazy.

What's funny about the whole thing is that Phone Arena posted a story on April 7th by a different writer with the same Twitter conversation and it showed the dates of the conversation on Twitter. It proves that they are just regurgitating old stores and spinning them for clicks which is a big fat fail in my book. It also seems they are biased against T-mobile from looking through some of their other stuff.
What's sad is that Android Authority cited Phone Arena's story. That is another failure. Tech blogs are just copying each other's stories instead actually giving us useful information. I called Phone Arena and Android Authority out on the lack of actually checking stories and their failure to post legitimate news, not that they will fo anything about it.
I know now who not to trust for phone information and these losers top the list.

Yeah it sucks to be honest, it's a shame because PhoneArena used to be up there as best in my opinion, now they've just lost the vision I think, most of the comments on articles are them getting called out

Exactly. Half of what they post for specs on phones is inaccurate now days
