Android wear 2 - Sony Smartwatch 3

On the official website of Sony they say that the Sony smart watch 3 support Android wear 1.5 and Android wear 2.
Is there any chance to have Android wear 2 officially on our beloved watch?

I usually don´t comment on questions like this and I usually don´t advise people to use the search function or read up on a 1000+ page thread. But in this case, as all the information really is easily available via search, google or just reading a couple of posts, I find your question rather annoying.
AW2 is not and will not be officially available for smart watch 3. If at all, there may be a ported version. But the thread for this has been going for months with no clear results so far.
Currently you´re stuck with AW1.5.
Wow, I could acctually bring myself to somewhat answer youre question...

What the Sony website actually says is
*** SmartWatch 3 SWR50 supports up to Android Wear 1.5. Android Wear 2.0 and onwards are not supported.

We have a chance for N

Today i see someone succesfully boot Android N on Xperia L. Which is Xperia L has a same proccesor with Redmi 1S (snapdragon 400) Maybe we can port the ROM into our device. What do you guys think about?

As far as I could gather, yes, it is possible to get Nougat.
Things we will NOT GET, because of the GPU we have are: OpenGL 3.1 / Vulkan. Those two are only embedded in Adreno 400 and upwards.
This would mean that there is a chance for problems with games that might migrate above OpenGL 3.0 (which we have).
As far as I'm aware, the differences between 3.1 and 3.0 are in the addition of new libraries, so if the game needs those new libraries 100% and doesn't offer a fallback option, we won't be able to play them.

Actually not a problem of xiaomi but of **** Google.
This is Android (and OEMs and Qualcomm) not looking far ahead to support devices. They don’t care about customers. After sale support non-existent.
Why is Apple able to support iPhone 5s (same age as Nexus 5) with iOS 10 and later? Because Apple made it compatible with METAL apk from day 1. Because it has hardware encryption since day 1.
Why is Apple able to support iPhone 5 (4 years old) with iOS 10? Because Apple is willing to!!! IPhone 5 does not support METAL nor does it have ARMv8 chip…yet iPhone 5 is getting iOS 10…minus raise to speak to Siri…it is getting 99% of iOS 10 features.
Remember, major software updates also bring with it security features beyond “monthly patches.”
So, with all the resources of software (Google) and hardware (OEM’s and Qualcomm), Android cannot support Nexu 5 and the likes?! It is like buying a laptop (since most phones cost the same) and can only use it for 2 years. That’s insane!
When will Android community wake up and demand more? Google, OEMs, and Qualcomm will only listen if money talks.
And it is this crap that explains horrible re-sale value of Android flagships!

No more update

Do not by it.
The M2 will stay on 5.1, while the M3 is on 7.0
That is a shame From huawei

I wouldn't be so harsh on Huawei. They did provide a means to unlock your device. Unfortunately there isn't much in the way of after-market development at the moment. I'd be willing to give it a try but don't really know where to start, however the investigation continues...
<rant>As a side-note, Oppo takes the award for the worst company. As a R7s owner I was surprised at the length they went to stop people developing for this device, and they didn't provide any updates either. If you want to advise anyone which company to avoid, I think Oppo is at the top of the list.</rant>
Yeah it's a real shame. They promised Marshmallow and cancelled it in the end without any information to us users...
Never gonna buy a Huawei again.

There is an Android 6.0 update since a half year. But this don't come over OTA, right? They have canceled this? I could flash it for 6 month. Since this time there come no newer security patches. Really bad by huawei.
The update has broken some things like the launcher. I have must for the person take the settings new. Maybe that was the reason for cancel. Just flashable, no OTA, so do you mean it, right?
For M2-801L (lte-version) we have used the B206. Looks that huawei's developer had gotten no much time for this device. So no official roll out possible. For P8 Lite they roll out every month security patches. Crazy for a cheap phone.
Bye

Samsung are no better.
I have lost count of the amount of Samsung devices that I have owned that have never had more than one or two very minor updates and then been abandoned by them.
My last tablet was the Galaxy TabPRO 8.4, it was released as part of their flagship range at the time, got 3 or 4 security patches then abandoned by them - only ever had 4.4.2 which was a real shame given its good spec and awesome 2560 x 1600 screen.
I dont care about updates
You shouldn't be so harsh on huawei, because updates are only important if you play on your device. I only use it as a media device, and not for games, and I think there will be sufficient apps for it in the next 3 years. It is also important, that no update is better than ****ty update. I just changed from my Nexus 7 to Huawei mediapad, because there was an update to lollipop. beforethe update everything was smooth,now the device is lagging so hard, I wish I were able to downgrade it.

@Boris An sorry to correct you. But with all those newly found security breaches on the SoC level "no update" is unacceptable. I bought it because Huawei stated that they will update the M2 at least to Marshmallow. That's just ridiculous and causes an enormous fragmentation. I'm so glad that Treble has to be active and implemented on all devices delivered with an Android 8 since this year. Won't buy any device running Android 7 or lower any longer, just to show those OEM that it's time for a change. And Huawei is just dead for me. Never again. Such a bad service...
Treble can realise a better update policy across different OEMs and bring Android nearer to the best practice update policy of Apple, assuring more devices to be other latest Android version and security-patch level.

6.0 on 801l available, but security patch just from end 2016. Very bad and there is no newer version like B206?
Will post the name, something like B010 was pushed today as a new security patch.Something like 58Mb, with device improvements and security updates.Didnt install it yet.I have the 16gb wifi version of the 10.1 inch M2.Gladly the still update it, now hoping we will ever get a newer emui.Nice tab, very nice but cant share it with my partner for example due to emui 3.1..Happy anyway!
For the M2 801l it's B208 out with march security patch and EMUI 4.0.3. Better than nothing.
Got this update last week-end:
OTA-M2-A01WV100R001C100B008_B010
This improves system stability and security, along with the newest security patches from Google.
i received the "com.huawei.android.hwouc.17784.apk" through the Yalp store, not google playstore...Is it safe to install it and try update?

Any android 8.0 oreo news?

Please replay

			
				
I think so...
Maybe
:fingers-crossed:
No Z series on the list
http://www.xperiablog.net/2017/08/31/sony-confirms-android-8-0-oreo-rollout/
Why Z5 series not receive android 8 ?
Whyyyyyyyyyyy
what? no xperia Z5 android 8? affff, need send email to sony claim this...
-_- there ahould be someone to port custom android 8 rom for us
Sony ditched Z family.
Well the Z5P came with Lollipop so Nougat was suppose to be the last since Sony only gives 2 major updates to flagships
"2 major updates already rolled out". That's ok, but it cannot be an acceptable reason. No hardware requirements which can block Oreo release for Snapdragon810. Nexus 6P will get the update, and it have very close hardware. Also the Z5P is a premium device with high price, it should get more support.

It seems there won't be official -- I reached out to the Sony Blog which posted the news on their site, and got a reply:

Xperia z updated to Android 8 by lineage os.
Can anyone port android 8 for our device?
Whan lineage start supporting z5 premium?
https://twitter.com/sonyxperiagb/status/951371712700014592
Asked Xperia UK and they replied
Hello!
Our Android upgrade policy is to support all premium range devices for eighteen months after the device has launched, which excludes devices that came to market before those listed.
Therefore, the Xperia Z5 Premium will not receive the Oreo update.

That's just sad. Why is there an artificial lifetime for this device? It's an expensive device, and it sucks that it's only supported for 18 months.

It's not comming officialy, but unofficialy?
I doubt a decent version will be ported and I've not seen of any development news but feel free to correct me.
I've given up on the Sony watch now due to poor support. I'm waiting for the LG sport watch

Question Android 12.1

When will we be getting it, and which version of ONE UI will support it?
we will probably get it with One UI 4.1.1 when the new Foldables come out.
I have read that we're looking at the back half of this year for the fold and flip 4...

One UI 4.1 doesn't mean, it's Android 12.1 as well, right?
If you mean android 12 L then it's coming soon. This month or the next month

No. One UI 4.1 started rolling out today. You can get the update with March security patch at any moment
I never got the February security patch.
Once Google releases it, Samsung will have to engineer it for the foldables. So you're still looking at a few months at least for that. We probably won't see it till later this year.
SOT, but got my one ui 4.1 from VZW today.
whats new in this 4.1 update for us, i cant find any video for it
