Same here for RETEU

Where did you hear about the reteu getting the update?

Dang I guess it's just the US version getting the update
We lads outside have to wait a longer while... Thank god there aren't any huge upgrades from Nougat to Oreo but I wish Motorola would speed it up a bit. Scared of getting the Z2 Force now but I love the Modssss and want a better performing phone

I had a retus model that broke and the replacement I bought turned out to be a RETAPAC. Still on 7.1.1/Dec here as well.

Any news for retapac?

You can just sideload it.
I've running Oreo on my retapac moto z for a couple of months.

I just now receibed Oreo on my retapac, but I think I'm not going to update, seeing the drain battery issue and the random restarts problem.

System Updates for XT1650-03 retapac
Guys, finally i got updated OREO this morning for retapac channel

Does anyone have the rcica version if so is it exactly the same security patch level with mine . And also if there is an update

I have Moto Z(1650-03). Android 8(OTA via RSD). The loader is unlocked. Will the phone survive if I flash stock 7.1.1(GRIFFIN_NPLS26.118-20-5-8_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml\flashfile.xml)? Battery so bad.

What version and security update is it?
Huge update at 1.5 GB. Switches a lot between LTE+ and LTE status. Device supports HD Voice but downgrades phone calls now from H+ to only 3G? I have noticed that shutdown time is quicker, but boot time is slower due to new enhanced start-up graphics. Battery life seems to drain quicker now. Not impressed with this new update. Plus it's only Nougat 7.0, and not 7.1. This is on the Bell Canada network.

Version 7.0, security version dated November 1, 2016. I'm not rooted and not BL unlocked.
After a day's use seems stable which is nice. To me the most obvious change is the multi window capability...Haven't tried the VR stuff. Battery performance doesn't feel like it's different than before so I don't know if the more aggressive Doze ability of Nougat is making a noticeable difference yet. Interesting coments in the previous post about the switching LTE bands and voice over 3g....I didn't even know to watch for that but if this is happening on my device, it hasn't affected me negatively. More to observe over the next few days.
My Bell Moto Z
Bell pushed 7.0 to me but the security patch level is showing January 1, 2017
I noticed that the battery drains quicker on 7.0 but I only had it on MM for 3 days before I accepted the OTA update.

Official 7.1.2 on G5 ?

Hello people,
Does anybody know when we will receive the 7.1.2 android update? Is there an official website/facebook page for software development?
7.0 is too buggy when it comes to battery life. Lots of wakelocks.
Yes my VS987 sucking battery life like a vacuum

LG never again... root could have fixed this but LG is just damn stubborn of not providing a bootloader unlock for all variants. I will try Xiaomi or Huawei next time. Or research on phones that are capable of root. Like ASUS

There won't be any 7.1.x update for us. But hopefully, in 2-3 months we might see Oreo update for LG G5 with LG UX 6 (not sure about +). So let's wait and watch.
In meantime, if you have a a bootloader unlockable and rootable variant, you can flash some AOSP custom rom based on 7.1.x, also we can expect a AOSP Oreo based custom rom in few weeks

Newbie Planning To Get Moto Z

Hi guys, I am planning to get Moto Z and price is 200$ about. Do you think it is worth getting it now? I don't want to spend much money since it's a secondary device for me.
Also, I noticed it has many variants. Which variant is good for custom ROM, Unlock BL and Root support?
So far, I came across XT1650-05, XT1650-01, XT1650-03 etc

It`s the same phone. Difference is the software update channel. 05 - China, 03 - EU and USA. Maybe some little changes in frequency, but HW the same.
Just try some google, man.
Also moto z in 2018? In the end of its lifecycle? Meh.

Same camera as that Nexus 6 of yours there.
New or used? If it's used you might wanna get a battery replacement for it, the Nougat 7.0 update kinda overstressed the battery
I'd get the G5+ or G5S, TBH (better battery life with Snapdragon 625)

Thanks mate,
I just sold my Nexus 6 and looking for a replacement as a secondary device. I came across Moto Z, LGV20, HTC 10, Honor 8, Nexus 6P. I do not want to spend more than 200-230$ and I merely keep my secondary device for 6-9 months.
I am getting a good deal if I get XT1650-01 and I believe it is verizon model but what I came to know is that it cannot unlock BL and root. I usually customize my phones.

It's brand new if I get Verizon variant. I am not into photography that much. I am looking for a better Snapdragon processor with the good amount of RAM so that it still holds resell value in the future. If I opt for a mid-range device like Xiaomi or Huawei I am getting a good deal in 200$ but then it would not hold much resell values after 6-9 months.
PS. I see that you Malaysian too

Sorry, don`t know about Verizon`s bootloader. But I can install verizons FW on my 05. Look at the thread [How to unlock bootloader]

LG watch style still on may security patch...

Hello all, i bought throw ebay an LG Style, and i cant seem to update him to a more recent security patch, after several factory resets it keeps on May security patch.
The Android is still 7.1.1, and the android wear version is the last 2.8.0.
Is this the more recent security patch of this watch? If not what can i do to upgrade it?
Thank you all for the help
My LG Watch Style I bought on EBay is also still on the May 2017 security patch. I don't think LG sold enough of them to bother updating it again. Which is a shame because I think this could have been the defacto Android Wear Watch for people that aren't really concerned with fitness. I would have bought this brand new for the full retail price if it had NFC. I doubt I'm the only one. Then again I doubt there were enough if us to make a difference.
I stand corrected. I don't know when it happened, but I just checked my watch and it says
Android Wear: 2.8.0.182823779
Google Play services: 12.2.09 (530-184158736)
Android OS: 8.0.0
Android Security patch level: December 1, 2017
Well after i read your post i went to check it, and bam an updating downloading
With the exact same settings
Got info about update, will upgrade tonight

Two more weeks then.
Thanks for informing us
LG should change their developers cause they are ****! 9months for a update, amazing:laugh: no LG for me, never.
I wonder what the hell makes Oreo update this hard? They already dispatched an update for dual sim models. All the G6s are using the same hardware. So, what makes it this hard to implement Oreo update for Indian versions? Someone explain this pls.

Mohammad str, Appreciate your announcement. Is there any chance to consider below items with Oreo or next update.
1) VoLTE support for Airtel, Vodafone and Idea. (Many devices released at same time like One plus 5 updated to VoLTE long back).
2) Option to reduce screen resolution to FHD+ for improved battery life, reduced standby battery drain and reduced screen stuttering (please do not abandon this when same option is given for V30)
3) AICam and Graphy feature if possible.
Thanks in Advance. A reply is highly appreciated.
