Just got the update this afternoon, it's a 100mb update, just a security one, nothing else, but still, awesome for a £170 phone.

Got it from a eBay seller, that was selling the EU model with band 20, I saw for that price as well on eGlobal, but it does not have the band 20, which is a deal breaker for me. Still great price for what you get ?
I don't have the september update yet, maybe they're releasing in specific regions first?

I'm in the UK too and have LTE band 20 also, all the A3's have band 20.
(I purchased in Mumbai, India on a work trip, so definitely the "Global" model, even says so on the box).
GSM Arena lists no difference in the bands either. I think the confusion is coming from the fact there's a third version of this phone for the Chinese market running Miui, and that is locked down but has a totally different model name.

Did you unlock your bootloader, change any developer settings or root your phone? The update was released worldwide, it's available for all regions except China:

No, didn't make any change to the system, but my ROM is european, I guess is only available to global ROM for now.
I have the European version and the update is still not here. Does anyone know why (there are different regional versions of android one)?
In Romania September update received
I got update 5 days ago. In Albania

I bought this phone yesterday, saw a September update of about 1.2gb! After the update still on Android 9. But my battery seems to drain quite fast, hoping it's just bcos the phone is new.
I am coming from a MiMax2 & I am already missing the big screen, the battery better be as good. I also miss MIUI cos this Android one is just dull!

Especially without root or an unlocked bootloader, there's not a lot to do to personalize your device.

Better off forget about it until it just happens to update by itself even if it takes 4 different centuries.

Thanks for answer, too bad we couldn't get Nougat on January, but let's hope the developers can wipe out the most bugs they can.
Every OEM has been having troubles with the Nougat update, even Google with the Nexus phones, and some of them have even rolled back globally the whole update after some days of release it.
I just hope to get a stable nice update, no matter if it take a couple of weeks later.
Thanks for all the information!

When you get notification and pull it down, it should stay down, however it goes to the top of the screen and small.

TL;DR: Jeff Yee, Vice President of Technology Partnerships and Planning for ZTE North America:
"Before any decisions are made about the future of Project CSX, the company's current flagship, the Axon 7, is poised to get updated to Android 7.0 Nougat in early February. Yee says that Google has received the final Nougat build, which includes long-awaited Daydream support, and is going through the process of certifying the release for public use. That process should wrap up in the coming days, and users of the sold-unlocked device can look forward to an update in the next two weeks or so."
"...or so." I'll look for it at the end of February at the earliest.
also from the article:
"Yee says that Google has received the final Nougat build, which includes long-awaited Daydream support, and is going through the process of certifying the release for public use. That process should wrap up in the coming days, and users of the sold-unlocked device can look forward to an update in the next two weeks or so."
Unless it's near vanilla Nougat, and that abomination called Power Manager has been completely removed and killed with fire, I am not interested. Lineage is working wonderfully and I see no reason why ZTE would bring anything useful to the table based on the B27 and B29 updates.
My opinion, for what it's worth.
that article is bull****. the nougat beta doesnt seem to be anywhere close to ready....
I thought they would release 7.1 with Daydream?

I was planning to go with the S8 once it is out (assuming unlocked bootloader). But after all ZTE did to help get CM up and running I am going to wait for the AXON 8 instead!

No it's not, not by a long shot. Since when is an update nearly a year after initial release so good? Even companies notorious for slow releases like Samsung have beaten them to the punch. The only one which comes to mind which has delayed as much as them is LG and they're being torn apart for it.

They've done the absolute bare minimum and did far less than any of the random developers here who wanted to get it done. There is literally zero ROMs that you can honestly thank them for, in fact if they weren't so stubborn and just gave us the material to work with we could have come up with plenty long ago. Go ahead and use one of those ROMs, which ZTE did nothing to help with just to be perfectly clear, if you don't mind losing functionality like access to the Hi-Fi DAC. ZTE are by far one of the worst companies when it comes to support that I've ever heard of. Interesting that a lack of screen protectors is what keeps it from being an "11" when it's camera practically doesn't function in medium light, there's random bugs all over the place, and there's still even enough typos to make the entire thing seem like a bad joke.
Even if they do deliver now, it'd be too little too late. I've had this phone for half a year and they haven't kept a single promise. Only empty hype which has never once resulted in something tangible.
I like this mtfk
You Sir have a point, and I think is a valid one.

Given how A2017G users are treated, maybe February 2018?
The LG V30 is already happily running Android Oreo in some parts of the world (most notably the company's home country of South Korea). The G6, on the other hand, hasn't been as lucky. Back in October a unit running Oreo appeared in a benchmark, and then around the end of last year we found out that LG was running a beta test of the software in China.
If you were wondering when the finalized version of LG's interpretation of Oreo would finally reach Europe, for example, we may now have the answer. According to the company's official website for Italy, the G6 is expected to be graced with the update in the first half of this year. Here's a screenshot proving the above.

That unfortunately means that, in the worst case scenario, you will have to wait until late June to see the tasty treat on your G6, a handset that isn't even one year old at this point. LG Italy's official Twitter account has pinned down the update time frame even more - to the second quarter (so at some point between April and June).
Source
Of course you are free to do what you want with your phone, but doesn't that reaction seem kind of irrational? Trash an otherwise good phone because you have to wait a few more months for an update (and not that big an update at that)?
To me its really a matter of expectations.
When you buy a toaster or a refrigerator do you become angry and get rid of it after a year because the manufacturer doesn't upgrade your product after you buy it?
Did LG promise you or advertise when you bought the phone that you will get updates on a schedule?
No I don't work for LG
You think his reaction is bad? You should see the LG G6 subreddit.. I think LG will lose many customers after their very blasé approach to dealing with software updates.

Last time I've checked, Polish LG rep said that we should get Oreo on G6 around February. He posted that screenshot from above last week and now there's a news from LG Italy that Oreo will arrive in Q2 2018...
Let's wait till the end of February and check if LG is f.cking their customers with loads of bull.
If they are, the customers should f.ck them when the new LG phones get released.
I respectfully disagree. How many of their average customers care about updates?
People who comment on forums are a select (weird) group, probably a very small % of the customers. For those folks, timely updates are important.
I am a bit of a technophile myself, and although updates are fun, more important are the long term useability and durability.

BTW found the discussion on Twitter, seems they're discussing about a test (i say "they" because i don't know if the screen is yours), who knows, usually Poland is the first country in Europe to receive Major updates in LG History, but the KDZ didn't pop up yet...
I'm calling out that there is an elephant in the room.
This might sound kind of provocative, but could it be that LG concluded that Oreo is not really a major update, and is therefore not in a rush to get it on existing models?
It seems to me that there is a lot of hype in new versions.
When I look at the list of the new "features" in Oreo, it's really quite unimpressive. Picture in picture? Icons that change shape? Who cares? It's a much smaller difference than say Kit Kat to Lollipop.
Of course when you buy a new model phone you want the latest software on it.
But just because Android came out with a new version number it doesn't mean its that much different. Modern OSs are pretty evolved and full featured now, so many improvements are basically stylistic changes that are like getting new style clothing.
Most of the things that Google hypes as major changes are more like minor tweaks. Other than the security updates, can anybody tell me how Oreo is any more functional than Marshmallow?
Also , many of the evolutionary improvements are pushed through the Google system app update anyway. Anything else can be obtained via other launchers
Just playing the contrarian here...

Exiting, can't wait for the new Android Q to arrive!:fingers-crossed:
Let's also consider the fact that K20 was delayed in getting v9.8.22. I won't be surprised to find out that we'll remain in the "delayed" list for an extended period of time.
Waiting for this version
yeah, everybody it's waiting for it...

Actually, the update to Android 10 is coming next month for the Mi9T, but we don't know if it will be MIUI 10 or 11.

Actually on their site it says miui 11 for mi9t is due between 21-31Oct19, but today is 24Oct I'm on glabal stable and still no OTA. It's one thing to get free news mentions by promising stuff, it's something else to actually deliver on your promise ! We'll see whether it comes in the next few days, by the 31st as they promised, but not much we can do if it doesn't, don't want to unlock BL..
Still no update for my mi9t global so sad. Im going back to oneplus

lol, you choose the phones because of the ability to update first? Phase 1 is between October 22nd - 31st sometimes it can even take longer, all the phones cannot be updated at the same time. You have to wait a little.

I've been using it on my mi 9t from the 16th, really nothing to get excited about as it's still android 9. Not that impressive at all to be honest.

31st has arrived and as expected no OTA. Read their own phase 1 statement please, it does not mention..'it can even take longer'. Like i said, I've seen these marketing tricks with other vendors as a way of getting free press mentons without having to actually do anything or even deliver on your promise.
I am very disappointed with xiaomi, I've only had one OTA since purchase and still on july security. At least none of them have found a way of preventing us from voting with our money and moving onto some other vendor..1+ here i come..
Guys not much to be excited about.. I already got the MIUI 11 global update and as it was mantioned before its still Android 9. And i have to admit that it is really buggy for me.. I have to restart phone everyday because i get enormous battery drain. (from 80% down to 2% during the night..). And yes i did try to do factory reset.. And i have also encountered 2 random reboots since the update came..
Seems I am a lucky one, cause on same global rom I do not encounter any serious battery drain

Just clean flash the rom and problems solved.

Nope, the problem it's with autostart... Xiaomi enabled by default this option to all apps, and the battery it's draining very very fast... If you disable autostart for almost all apps you'll get better battery life, it's like getting a new phone ?

Try to disable autostart for apps, I did this and it feels right now like a phone with 4000mAh unfortunately xiaomi enabled autostart for all apps, I don't understand why...
