"moto z2 play - Android ™ 9.0 Pie - General Operating System Update Information
INTRODUCTION
We are pleased to announce a new software update for the moto z2 play. This update introduces important improvements to the security of your phone.
For more information about Motorola updates and support, visit www.motorola.com/mymotoz.
NOTE: All phone information will be saved. You will not be able to use an earlier version of the software after you install this update.
IMPROVEMENTS
This update includes changes such as:
Android ™ 9.0 Pie
Android Security: Includes Android security fixes through September 1, 2019
Android ™ 9.0 Pie enhances your mobile experience with intuitive new navigation and recent apps, an enhanced Do Not Disturb mode, a colorful settings menu, a longer battery life and a revamped split screen. Android Pie has also redesigned Quick Settings, simplified volume controls, brought you an easier way to manage notifications, and more.
After you install the software update, you will notice some changes, such as:
Usability
Adaptive Battery: Do more with a single charge. This feature prioritizes battery power for the apps you use the most and applies restrictions to those you use the least. Battery Saver can now be automatically activated anywhere from 75% to 5%.
Adaptive brightness: The device learns about your habits and automatically adjusts the brightness to suit your activities.
Quick Setup Improvements: No shortcuts (buttons are no longer expandable, but holding down a button takes you to the configuration details). Icons have been redesigned with a rounded concept and circular background.
Rotation button: Android Pie gives you the ability to rotate even when auto rotate is off. A spin button is displayed whenever it detects that the phone has changed orientation.
Dual Chip Settings: When you press the Chip button in Quick Settings, a
This activity is displayed in full screen so you can select the desired chip and manage data usage.
Refurbished Set Up App: Colorful icons for each selection with a circular background. It also tells you if the phone is in Mute or Do Not Disturb mode. The order, name, and position of the settings options have not changed.
Better Screenshots: Another useful feature of Android 9.0 is the addition of a virtual screen capture button / shortcut in the power button menu (the old power and volume buttons method still works). You can edit your screenshots right after taking them and a delete option is also available.
Enhanced audio controls: The volume slider is now upright and next to the volume buttons. Users can only switch between Play, Mute and Vibrate modes. In addition, the volume buttons change the media volume by default, and the player can be set to Vibrate mode by simultaneously pressing the volume up and power buttons. You can also access Bluetooth device volumes when you are connected.
Zoom in on text: You can finally avoid mistakes by selecting the wrong text. When you hold down a sentence or text, the zoom automatically increases. It also helps you read small texts and select words accurately.
New and updated emojis: 157 new emojis and a gender neutral concept.
Settings icon when in PIP mode: When you tap the new Settings icon, you will see the app's PIP settings, where you can enable or disable the feature.
Other UI changes: Now the time is on the left and the search bar is rounded. There is a new task manager / recent list that shows a horizontal rather than vertical list and includes split screen features by pressing the app icon above the thumbnail. Dragging the split screen border will display the desired app on the full screen.
Notifications
Notifications UI changes: Notifications now have rounded corners. They also support inline images / stickers and differentiate individual / group conversations.
Discard notifications: Android Pie will now suggest some actions for the types of notifications you normally discard. A new option to stop notifications is displayed when they are frequently dismissed.
Notification Bar: Maximum of four notifications visible in the status bar. Previously the list was truncated and with a dot to indicate more unseen icons.
Manage notifications: A shortcut at the bottom of cards in notifications that lets you see a list of recent user-facing notification activity. If something is annoying you, you can place the right button to disable unwanted notifications in the future."

The Google Drive link to the OTA was good this morning (CET), I downloaded and installed it. Don't know about the rest of the links cause I had everything already installed way back. So far the update seems smooth.

My device does not connect to the 4G + of the operator CLARO BR. Can anyone tell me if it has anything to do with the modem? If I flash the Oreo modem, can it solve?
