Oreo for G6 on February 12?

A user on Reddit claims to have gotten an email from the CEO of LG saying Oreo will come to the G6 on February 12 at 12:54 AM. He did not provide a copy of the email so who knows.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Mercz23:
Dude really ? This is joke can't you get it :D
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] ralaud:
We can only speculate at the moment. LG did lose customers because their own fault by differentiating the LG G6. No wireless charging or Hi-Fi Quad DAC Audio for everyone, "thats not really the worst", I dont need these features and got none of them :rolleyes: But it just seems like that LG like it to lose more customers. Even if LG G6 get Android Oreo in one or two months (best case scenario), it is a shame what LG is doing. They play for time so that they have not to update to Android P. Guys I hope that you got a LG G6 with an unlockable bootloader (EU H870, USA US997) to flash custom roms.

Just trying to say, there is no excuse for LG. Companies who play for time are companies who get financial losses by time. However, it was sold as a highend smartphone and should get highend development, even if it got an older CPU. Google gave all smartphone companies the possibility of easiness with project treble and LG do not use it. Can't really understand why.

With regards. :cyclops:

Guys,

Take a look at this link:

http://forums.fido.ca/t5/custom/page/page-id/forumpage.osupgradesen

Last time I saw "coming soon", it took like 15 to 20 days before I see the update.

So, hopefully we may see the Android O till the end of February or by the beginning of the March.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] jshames:
LOL :) "soon"

Seriously, I really hope that Oreo does not degrade performance, as major updates often do.

My G6 works perfectly now and I don't want things messed up-- so I hope that their beta testing program is thorough and they won't release a buggy update.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] anth0nymDROID:
That was sarcasm
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Android fiend:
Too serious about not getting Oreo.

Thanks for getting me back to reality. Paying for a flagship device and then not getting updates has me upset.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] anth0nymDROID:
Yeah sorry about that I saw you were already poked about that ?? how do you like your LG so far?
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Hadi98:
LG So Disappointing

Yeah the main reason I bought LG G6 was because I thought LG is the fastest when it comes to Updates.

But a now that I see that even Asus released Android 8 for some of its MID-RANGE phones meanwhile there's no news or leaked info that LG has a plan for its latest flagship or not, it made me disappointed so bad that Just sold my G6 for half the price and I bought a Xiaomi Mi Mix 2(my experience, its clean, fast, good looking, handy, its just the best) and Im going to install android 8 Developer Version yes I know its beta but its better than nothing and not knowing if there is going to be a update or not.

That list shows also that G6 with Android N has October security patch. So how accurate that list actually is, because we are already on January security level.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Krysdyan:
Are you on a canadian G6?

In my experience the canadian devices get the update always a bit later than the european. So maybe we get the update even earlier? :D

To the end of February? :confused:
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Seronez:
sorry to break it you all, but the update will be delayed till May or June...really disappointed with LG, my first and last one.

Just search on google for more info, with carriers it may be even later like september.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] vitoski:
It's not gonna show up until December 2019...

Seriously people, what's the point of speculating about date that is known only to LG.

When it comes it comes, let's face it. LG is one of the worst companies out there in terms of communicating their update policy and exchanging posts every couple of minutes here will not gonna change it.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Android fiend:
I like the G6.

I like the G6 a lot. Too bad LG does not support it with updates.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] coyot352:
you're late, you're talking about articles with several weeks, since there have been two reliable sources of Canadian operators talking about late February / early March

"crying crying, lg is really mean", will buy an s8 if you want to change your version number in the settings.. or not ! ^^
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] raddy:
People here are always comparing small and new companies with LG for slow updates.

Small and new brands would have small portfolio and testing and commercial plans also be simple.

You have to compare LG with Samsung itself.

Has Samsung released stable Oreo version ?

Has Sony ? May be for a couple of phones.

LG Oreo update for Canadian region be released on First week of march.

Please check Twitter for source.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Killua96:
Samsung has released a public beta in November, Sony has released Oreo for a few phones?

XZ Premium, XZs, X Performance, XZ and now also X Compact and X, yeah, "few" models.

And you're really believing in what canadian operators are saying? Really? What have canadian operators to be more reliable than the others?

Guys, really, stop defending LG, do it only if you're paid for it :D
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Seronez:
My information is only several hours old i don't like it either but you don't have to react like a little child it's just a phone...if you're right i would be the first to applaud. But I don't think your info is more credible than mine. And let's be honest what's more to believe...if you think about past update policy...

[LG G6 Questions and Answers] coyot352:
So it took only a beta of oreo to satisfy you, okay, it does not preclude that for conventional users samsung is at the same stage as Lg.

I do not see why Canadian operators would tell bull****, it's not in their interest, it does not make sense..

Lg does not need to pay for the "defend" because I have my g6 since mid-December and I already had two update, november patch and January patch is more than correct.

---------- Post added at 10:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 AM ----------

no information is old, that's what we already knew 6 weeks ago, currently the latest news come from Canadian operators.

you can give the link of your info if you want.

I am not a child, I imitate your reaction "its my first lg and the last" while the follow-up is correct, we have the last security patch, oreo does not bring anything important or cool, it is just a minor update and that's probably why Lg (and Samsung) do not rush to deploy it, because the interest is low
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Killua96:
Yeah, beta means that there is some work behind, we know nothing.

Why canadians operators could tell lies? Then tell me, why European operators told to G4 users that Nougat would have come by the end of 2017? And last week they told that it probably won't receive that update?

So you have the device since December, you're happy to have received two updates? Good for you, i have it since april and I've received only two updates more than you, and for almost 5 months we have been without updates and news from LG (operators told November, it came in December).

Really, tell me, why you want to defend the last OEM to updates their flagship device? Really, tell me, I'm curious.

No words on the "few" Sonys devices that have received the updates? Lol

Oreo is a minor update, ok, why then LG is waiting so much to release it? It's a minor release, it shouldn't take long? What a stupid excuse.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] dantpe:
It's February already, and I got this pushed to my phone this morning, not Oreo yet, but at least the security patch level got bumped up to January 1st, 2018.

[LG G6 Questions and Answers] lg3FTW:
Why does everyone always want the latest firmware? Truly I'd take root on All device variants before I would take 8.0
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Frau Son:
Because security patches are important.

I mean, we're still stuck on 7.0. There's not even 7.1 available for our phone and as far as I know, 7.1 has some battery saving features that many people would appreciate to have.

And, tbh, considering that I own a flagship device that I paid a sh*t ton of money for, I also want to get the best service.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Seronez:
I know it will be releasd for V30 for sure but LG G6 has to wait it seems. But I sincerely hope that this is true.

Lets face it , Lg g6 is competing with galaxy s7 , witch betas started yesterday or so.

V30 is competing with S8

Keep calm about the update , lg is not so delayed
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] torchwolfery:
the sad truth is, is that this phone has not sold as well as lg expected... you can't really blame them for not keeping it up to date when there wasn't enough handsets sold in the first place... that doesn't make it ok, hell no. but at the same time if we don't get any more updates i just won't be shocked. I had a G3 i loved and main reason i got a G6 was the price went so low it was pointess to buy a cheaper handset...
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Killua96:
In the first place is LG fault for not having released a better G6, with a better soc (remember? 821 should be easier to update and less battery eater than 835 lol) and a better front facing camera, and maybe even a better sensor for the rear camera, like the one found on G5 and G4.

Anyway G6 sells are not a disaster, so it's still not a valid excuse, in this case they're just incompetent, we'll see if they intend to keep update frequently like in the past two months or leave it be like happened between August and December, who knows...
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Cloonix:
Since they stopped development of a near-future G7, i really expect support for future android updates.

[LG G6 Questions and Answers] The-Last-Hylian:
It can be announced that the V30 and G6 will be getting updates all day long but until I actually see that update hit my handset I've no faith in LG.

Their UK rep couldn't answer any questions.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] ralaud:
Maybe LG just want to 'suprise' us, what I do not believe. But I have faith in XDA information and that LG added G6 to Android Enterprise Recommended program is an Official announcement. One criteria of this program is "Delivery of Android security updates within 90 days of release from Google, for a minimum of three years". So LG have to deliver Android 8.1 or at least security updates within 3 months. Thats better than nothing :)

With that action, LG is getting a better image when we see the updates. And that will result in better solds. So LG is thinking about their own profit while providing updates, they should.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] zedmarcus:
Within 3 months?

So the last security update on my G6 Hong Kong dual SIM is from the start of October. How many days ago was that?

[LG G6 Questions and Answers] romcio47:
Since LG G6 will be Android Enterprise Recommended device, one of its requirements is:

"Major update release support

Support current shipping release +

one letter upgrade

"

It's kinda messy - Google's site shows that LG G6 has Android 8.0 - Oreo

True Android version is 7.0 - Nougat, right now...

If Android 7.0 will be treated as "current shipping release" then Android 8.0 is definitely guaranteed.

But if Android 8.0 will be treated as "current shipping release" then Android P 9.0 is possible.

Project Treble will be

MUST

for any device with Android P - either shipped device or a device that will be updated to that OS version.

Interesting...
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] ralaud:
I can't say something about that, but for me its listening like, that LG G6 is newly added to the Android Enterprise Recommended program. Tell me if I am wrong.

My LG G6 - H870 has january security patch. It should be on LG's interest to release updates, even if it takes 3 months. However they added their device to this program. I do not defend LG, its a shame for a big company to not realize before, that software should be equal to hardware. I mean, I have to hope that this company try to go to a better way, due to I can't just buy another phone at the moment, so I am stuck on LG's promise now.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Juice3250:
I'm seriously considering paying off the rest of my G6, and getting the Pixel 2, smaller one, and then selling this on eBay. Verizon has $100 off Pixel 2 and $300 off Pixel 2 XL. I went into a Verizon store yesterday and the XL2 is massive and I honestly don't want a phone any taller than the G6. I do also have to say the S8 is a beautiful piece of hardware.

Android Enterprise Recommended is rather fresh announcement and it has not even fully launched since our devices does not even have that LG GATE implementation that is advertised.

Also zero-touch deployment, also advertised, is available on Oreo which is not YET available on our devices.

The key is understanding what you read :). The article you posted the link to is about LG AI, not Oreo. Once again, i suggest you try harder to understand what you read ;):)
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] adamsek:
You're missing the main point. If only they wanted to give us "unfinished" version of the os(like others did) it would be already out. Keep that in mind. ;) If we ever seen an oreo on g6 it will be at true deadline cause no one wants to confirm any earlier than Q2 (lg canda delete's its posts).

So... Only samsung? Where are the others?

Also "unfinished" means "unfinished" not "bugged".
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] adamsek:
HTC stopped rollout as well(did you even read of any other oreo update than lg?).

I made i quote to note that in their minds g6 has never been priority and if they decided to add some new feature why would they roll it out earlier?
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Killua96:
HTC stopped at the beginning of January due to problems, which have been solved and now (since yesterday) they have been updating HTC 10, so... Did YOU even read any other Oreo update other than LG?
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] adamsek:
Yes i did you asked who had problems. Samsung resumed even earlier. :)
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Killua96:
No, samsung didn't resume earlier, they resumed Oreo for S8/S8+ in the last weeks, HTC is realasing Oreo for HTC 10 now.

Still, i'm still waiting for phones with "unfinished" Oreo release on them.

C'mon, there is no need to defend LG behaviour, there is no excuse apart from treble. The worst thing is that we don't know a single thing about that update, will it be 8.1? Will it bring Treble? When it'll arrive? It'll bring AI? Nothing.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] adamsek:

I agree with you, if you want fast updates, its recommended to buy Google phone or Android One smartphones. Another way getting fast updates would be flashing custom roms.

Therefore	he/she did a good decision, its not possible to unlock the bootloader for LG G6 - VS988 (his/her post was send with VS988), so its not possible to install custom roms, if official support for updates ends.

Lets hope for the future, that Google will force LG to update with that Android Enterprise program (even LG G5 is in that program now https://www.android.com/intl/de_de/enterprise/device-collection/#premium). . However LG G6 and LG V20 are displayed with Android version 8.0, so maybe they have to start after Android Oreo release with that Android Enterprise program. It is just a speculation.
