[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Moon75:
Not everyone, what we got for stock Eui Marshallow 21S, 23S, 26S everything work fine. If you like flashing there is also many custom Nougat roms to enjoy . Even with new stock Nougat rom, not much change for the device maybe some cosmetics stuff, looks etc which not really matter for me.

If I like update/new rom I will buy Xiaomi or Google phone not LeEco.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] doo_Z:
For every company, update their smartphones is an obligation (security patch and so on) and a demonstration of seriousness. I'm using the Resurrection Remix on my Le Max 2 and Nougat custom ROMs are incomplete just because LeEco still doesn't release Nougat officially.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Moon75:
As I said you can use stock Marshallow roms everything work fine. 6.0,7.1, 8.0 what's the difference? not much

Before I bought the phone I know the situation for the official rom update we might get or not get it. Above all there are more important things in life than smart phone.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] doo_Z:
Please, don't make philosophy in a tech forum. Nougat is a too much important upgrade (especially for big smartphones) to be ignored. Why are you defending this company so much? These are the facts and they are not good.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Moon75:
Nobody is complaining we have custom roms that's enough. You can complain to LeEco if you are not happy or sell the phone and be happy.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] doo_Z:
Custom ROMs are not official support. Enough with these excuses. This is a forum and I opened this thread to discussing about the bad conduct of LeEco.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Horsebeatsbishop:
no one here is waiting für EUI whatsoever

no one is defending the company - everyone knows what he gets when buying a phone with premium specs for the cost of a entry lvl gimmick

no one buys a phone like this as a dailiy driver w/o the option of buying something else the day after this one is bricked

ok, to lift your confusion: the "developer" in "xdadevelopers" stands for "developer" - so yes, if you just want to complain about the leeco company policies, you're definitly in the wrong place
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] doo_Z:
Well, I'm using Le Max 2 as daily driver and the company must release Nougat or at least the source code to allow the development of Nougat custom ROMs without bugs.

And yes, you are defending the company.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] doo_Z:
It's so difficult to just talk about the situation without polemicize or "fanboying"?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] rickyx32:
You're being obnoxious... People aren't buying this phone because of the LeEco brand, they're buying the Le Max 2 because it's a $196 phone with unbeatable specs for the price. There's no brand loyalty involved, it could've been from any other random Chinese brand for all I care. TBH, you have to be pretty ****ing stupid to expect any kind of support, either from the online Chinese stores that sell this phone to you at heavily discounted prices, or LeEco, a brand that I never heard of until recently. I already knew that their smartphone division was failing, so as people have been telling you... we bought this phone because of the specs and decent XDA support, I never expected LeEco to provide updates, matter of fact, some of the Le Max 2 variants ship with stock ROMs that have no update function like the American X829 variant.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] doo_Z:
I am of the idea that without an official Nougat update the custom ROMs for this smartphone will die. Without the original source all bugs will remain.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] ThE_MarD:
Heyyo, lol this guy gets it. There's no way I'm ever going back to EUI ROM. I hate it. Moving the quick settings to the recent apps is really damn annoying and the aggressive memory clearing even when "locking" apps on the recent apps view still can cause notifications to fail on stuff like email. That's poop.

Too true rickyx32... It's the exact same for me. I didn't necessarily buy this phone rooting for LeEco to survive, I bought it because it's a ridiculous deal and I felt that the benefits well outweighed the risks of LeEco going under. Knock on wood, but I've never had a phone outright die in that first year... heck, if this thing lasts a year? I feel that I've gotten my money's worth. If I wanted more than one year? I'd have probably paid out the bum for a ZTE Axon 7 or OnePlus 3T with that "Addon Guard" thingy to make it two years (which sounds like a ripoff when the ZTE Axon 7 is stock with two years warranty heh) :P

As for official software updates? I can think of so many other companies that have failed to update a device for two years. LeEco is one of them yeah, but heck, at least the Chinese models are still getting Marshmallow updates which is good on them even though internationally can't say the same such as India...

Heck, my x829 model shows as "le_x2_na" and is the unofficial North American release... it even has modified software from resellers that PREVENTS OTA updates. Can't even update via that "update.zip" in recovery mode, it gets blocked. :\

So yeah, I definitely bought this device because the price was damn good and I could buy two of these for the price of a OnePlus 3T or ZTE Axon 7 and the warranty and support are a gamble but I accepted that... I'm not the casino kind of guy so betting $265 CAD on an Android phone is peanuts compared to real gambling heh

As for LeEco as a manufacturer? Yeah they're in trouble but then again they have been doing better as of late (my guess is due to selling off all that le_x2_na unused stock). Hopefully if they do continue to release devices they rethink their gross EUI ROM and just stock to AOSP with some light tweaks on the top... especially since their premium service is screwed... if not? Meh, I'd probably still run away from EUI as fast as I could haha
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] doo_Z:
Is it so difficult to understand that no official Nougat = no bugless stable Nougat custom ROMs?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] AhmadSant:
STRONGLY AGREE

well said ,, we couldn't have such spec & price from another companies, in addition that not all company have excellent support or continuous SW updates.

I'm happy with this mobile whatever LeEco introduce Nougat or not :p
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] kanagawaben:
Always accepted buying this phone was a bit of a gamble. I am happy enough using Cuoco92 version of eui but it is a bit of a worry that unless LeEco sort their **** out we'll probably never get past the Jan 2017 security patch. I do wish devs continued to work on MM ROMs which they have sources for, so that we could have stable ROMs with updates for security. MM is fine by me, it's a good OS. I couldn't care less about the latest version as long as security patch is up to date. Don't want N or O ROMs that have issues because of lack of sources.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] doo_Z:
Can't read this in a tech fan forum..
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] kanagawaben:
Why? I root, customize and tweak the hell out of my phone. As long as I have a working, fast, stable, secure and customizable device why should I care about Google's minor update changes. N doesn't even have Xposed, which adds far more value to M than an N upgrade IMHO.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] valy_cta:
Mine is gonna turn 1 year in few days, keep the fingers crossed :P

Well said. I cannot have a ROM without Xposed or at least Xposed-like features. That's why as kanagawaben said, Cuoco92's ROM is great for this device.

Most probably they will update the phone to N, even if they wouldn't, nobody prevents you to sell it. Maybe some would not buy the LeMax2 again, but I would buy it anytime. As it's so easy is to customize this brand's phones, I would buy another LeEco if it they would release one.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] :
I've had this phone for about a month now and even on EUI, this phone is pretty damn good and I would be fine running EUI for quite a while. The lack of updates is something to expect as it tends to be common on many phones and the fact that LeEco was kind enough to provide GPL-compliant source code is just a bonus, as well as fairly generic parts that other devices uses so porting roms for devs should be a real breeze for them. Even if we do not get Android 7.0, worth to mention is that more expensive devices at launch such as the OnePlus 2 is not getting updated and that's a device from a brand known to be pretty chill when it comes to development.

However, the only reason I'm posting in this thread is to point out that it feels like OP have nothing here to say, other than making the same complaints over and over. On top of that, keeps criticizing others for actually liking the EUI interface, which brings me to the real question: What's the point of making a thread on a forum if you're just gonna complain about other peoples opinion and criticize that, no matter what? This is a real bargain and LeEco probably had too high expectations, but even if we do not receive official Android N, this phone was one hell of a bargain and Android 6.0 is not even that outdated just yet. Good luck finding a phone for 200 USD with such good specs and such a big screen (as well as a high-end recent qualcomm chipset); I can tell you directly that there basically is none.

[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] ThE_MarD:
Heyyo, well said [MENTION=3493119]GethPrime[/MENTION] that's essentially how I feel too.

According to the Chinese LeEco forums they are still developing their EUI ROM for both Marshmallow and Nougat so in time there's still a good chance of us getting a Nougat update... But even so, I didn't have the best experience with EUI so it won't affect me much.

Most companies with budget devices sold close to cost too never get updates... I don't know if you've ever seen the Asus Zenfone 2 complaints and that device wasn't nearly as cost effective as our Le Max 2.

Heck, even on my OnePlus One I barely ran the stock CyanogenOS since XDA Sultan ROM was a lot better... That Snapdragon camera HAL was mind blowing on how much faster autofocus was and even the automatic exposure and shutter speed... Everything was better heh.

Exodus Android also gets a good mention, their Lollipop ROM for the OPO was also superior to CyanogenOS.

Pretty much the only real gamble with buying the Le Max 2 x829 is warranty... If it'll be honored properly within that first year. Seems like the two year warranty via the Le app is probably dead so can't comment on that heh
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] kanagawaben:
The vast majority will have bought their LeMax2 from resellers like GearBest, Bangood, Geekbuying or AliExpress anyway I guess. When you do that, you are pretty much forsaking any warranty. Yeah, technically you have one, but good luck with that, especially as they usually require you to return the device to China at your expense, which costs too much to even bother.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] jman0:
Well, here (Spain) you have to pay around 24€ in order to send a registered mail package to China. Anything that weights from 500 g to 1 Kg costs the same. So, if you have paid 70 or 80, maybe it's not worth sending, but for a 200€ phone, you might want to take the risk, rather than pay the same for another model from China, or more for a similar phone bought locally. We know local companies will usually cover shipping both ways, but we also knew beforehand that Chinese shops only pay for shipping the repaired phone (or the replacement) back to you, if they honor the warranty.

Even in the event something went wrong with my phone and I had to send it to China, I wouldn't really be losing money, since the phone, bought from China, is 73€ cheaper than the same phone bought from a reputable local shop.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] AhmadSant:
well, my experience with Banggood, I bought my mobile from them and cost me 172 euro, no problem with mobile until now, and I bought another same mobile for a friend here, so his mobile has FP issue no work any more, we contact Banggood, they offer us two options; refund 25 Euro or change it and they refund shipping cost.

the price here in Spain was about 160 and more for same mobile.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] -FliP-:
Reading through this topic it seems like OP came here to find people with the same mindset, but obviously noone else cares. I am about to buy my first Le Eco in a couple of days, since prices are deducted for obvious reasons.

I was initially rooting for a Nougat device, considering newer must be better, right? Digging a bit deeper into Marshmallow and Nougat differences I noticed, except a few cosmetic changes I could care less about, that Android 6 actually performs better than Android 7 in terms of benchmarks.

I truly believe anyone who bought this phone, bought it for the specs and performance at this unbeatable bargain, so the "targeted" consumer base could care less about cosmetic changes if Nougat actually slows down their processing and gaming performance. People that care about Android 7 can get far cheaper devices to look good and get basic jobs done.

To be honest, almost no chinese manufacturer is releasing frequent updates. Not even Xiaomi, I am still waiting for a update/improvement on my Redmi 3. UMi(digi) did release some security patches early on for their first device Zero, but none of their devices are getting updates either. The version of Android you buy it with is the one you will end up with, except flashing. UMi even partners with the community to "officially" release custom ROMs, this is how I end up with MIUI on my Zero.

It doesn't matter where support comes from, as long as it is there. Whether it is official or by the community. I actually prefer community support as it is more reliable and honest.

OP is trying too hard to make the company look bad due to no software updates. ...Really? I have yet to see a fanboy in this thread as OP claims, I am just seeing realistic statements and an obviously frightened, spoiled or butthurt OP.

Samsung did not go down due to their exploding battery fiasco, and I believe LeTV or whatever their main brand is called is financially stable. They might or might not support their mobile division any longer, but that is a gample with every manufacturer, even the big boys like Apple, Samsung and others.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Shished:
They started to sell smartphones in Russia under LeRee brand. They are selling Le 2, Le 3 and accessories.

[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] doo_Z:
Le 3 is nothing more that the Coolpad Cool1 with another name
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] doo_Z:
I'm searching for nothing. I'm just worried about the disastrous financial situation of the company and I'd like to see new Nougat-based ROMs without the current problems and bugs. That's why I really hope in an official Nougat update. I don't give a sh*t of the EUI.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] jman0:
Really? Are you kidding me? As a European, you probably are familiar with European cars. Tell me the difference between the Volkswagen Up and the Skoda Citigo. Oh, and the Seat Mii. Yes, the same car (trust me, it's the same) sold under three different brands. Want more examples? You have the Toyota Aygo, Citroën C1 and Peugeot 107. Yet again, the same car sold by three different companies.

Come on, find better arguments. This is getting boring. We want a challenge.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] doo_Z:
Nope, LeRee Le 3 and LeEco Coolpad Cool1 are exactly the same device under two different names of the same company. The examples that you wrote don't have anything to do with it because are cars of DIFFERENT companies with almost the same aesthetic.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] jman0:
Well, not almost same aesthetic. It's the same car, all three models are manufactured at the same plant, in Slovakia. The same that happens with a lot of Chinese phones and tablets, all manufactured at the same plant, and then sold under several brands.

[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Supertacomonkeyexplosion:
I bought my x829 from a third party not caring about a warranty because of the price. I learned my lesson dropping my OPO , cost of a new screen compared to a new device was a wash :)

My x829 charger broke ( no damage, just stopped working ) I went to the Le forums for some answers and a leeco mod/employee had me fill out a form , take some pics of the charger... And they ended up sending me a new charging brick. Really painless, no shipping costs, no hassle. That was about a month ago....

So I'm not taking some of these closing up shop rumors to seriously.

[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] luisoman2000:
I get what you're saying OP, you spent your hard earned money on a LeEco, so the least they could do (In theory) is give propper support to their devices. Unfortunately it doesnt always work like that though. I knew what i was getting into with my Le max 2, and honestly I dont regret buying it. Great bang for buck, good develeper community, what more could i ask for? If LeEco updates the phone then thats great, if it doesn't, my phone will still work with M, and it will still be working even if the company goes under. I do hope they stay in business though, that way I can get a snapdragon 835 with good specs for a decent price.
