Moto G5 in UK - Moto G5 Questions & Answers

I've just got a Moto G5 in the UK and surprised to see that where's no update? People were talking about an update on the Moto G5 and there's no update? If no one knows it's fine ?

Please don't post asking etas - this is because no one here works at Motorola and so we know as much as you do - its pointless asking - any reply saying anything else is speculation & not based on any facts (even if it comes from Motorola tech support as they don't know either - they just read off a script)

Sure sorry. It's fine now because I asked on Twitter and Motorola said that it's about carrier and model plus location. So I got an answer. Thanks anyway

Cyanogen's death and what it means for our devices

As you might know, Cyanogen is shutting down its services soon. Wileyfox was one of the few brands to use it. So what will happen? Are our phones going to die, without a Nougat-flavoured update? According to a Wileyfox official, they won't.

What do you think about this?
When i asked wileyfox tech support about updates they replied:
"Thank you for your email,
We assure all our customers that the support of the software will go on as provided and,
That there will be no issues at all.
Kind Regards

Yeah, Dealt with that dude before, (Stefano)
Completely wrong, wouldn't trust a word he/she/they said....
When I tried ordering a battery from them, he kept telling me he can't give me a tracking number as it's an international shipments.
WTF.......
So anything he/she says is bound to be wrong,
Gonna give it some time, then gonna try my luck with one of the roms available , crdroid look to be nougat flavored, and get regular updates.
Unless somebody has a pixel style ROM for our phone?
i tried crdroid, had lots of problems. using dirt unicorns and found no problems so far with latest rom.

So how will it come out?
As a ota update?
Will it not be a CyanogenMod anymore? So it's name will change?

I see no way the 2015 X gets O officially. But it can be rooted so it will likely be available that way.

It isn't necessary!
Every Android devices can be rooted.
The device should be capable of the upgrade then only any official or unofficial ROMs can be made for it.

I believe that was my point. As for every Android device can be rooted, I'm sure there are examples of that not being so. Right now the Moto Z Force Droid cannot be rooted.
The Z Play get? Would be great
I don't really believe that article (yet).
It now also has a "(received)" behind some devices. Is Android O really already rolling out?!
Also there is not source of any kind provided...

Yup!
But maybe this is correct because Motorola have decided to give Android O to G4 plus and and G5 plus.
well...ill believe it when i see it. they also told us the droid ultra/maxx would be getting successive updates that never happened. know what we got instead? "here, have a discount towards a new phone"

And do you have a source for that information? Or did they just tell you?
Ok stop with these thread already. I know i'm upping the thread for you but this is non-sense.
Even if any Moto phone is getting android O, if at all, it's going to be more than a year from the RELEASE of android O anyway.
Look left. Do you see my avatar? Yeah, I'm gonna be like that before any of this happens.
vietkao, please click unsubcribe for all threads containing Android O in the title according to your statement for at least half a year and let others discuss what they want. It is known there can't be any facts at this time, but like the linked article says, there are valid speculations which devices could be eligible for the update. You may tell that it makes no sense at this time (I think it does, it may change my recommendations to friends and family which device to buy!) and then we may discuss this, but "stop the thread" is not appropriate. Thank you in advance
and XT1635-02 ???
@tute123456, you are aware that XT1635-02 is listed as Moto Z Play in the "probably supported devices list" in the OP, aren't you?

I've answered a similar question (crossposting?) here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...elp-thread-t3425655/post83822331#post83822331 (Hint: it's not a good idea to start the same topic in more then one thread - this is known to start redundant and confused coversations.)

G5 7.1.1

I've heard that the Moto G5 is getting 7.1.1? Is this correct? I'm waiting for the update! To confirm this. Thanks in advance
please don't open threads like this - iv heard that i'm going to win the lotto next week - doesn't mean its going to happen
As to is this correct? How do we know? Your're the one telling us - Members of xda don't know what is going inside Motorola and only know what is publicly released by them.
its not informative and there are plenty of other update type threads already - we don't need yet another
If I'm "wrong" blame this guy?!
I don't think he was suggesting it was wrong, just that no one outside of Motorola knows. A lot of people have not had a single update to their Moto G5 and are still running Android 7.0 with a security patch level of January 2017...

If that was a Motorola chat person it's been proven they don't know dates or anything about releases other than what is already publicly available on the Motorola website
Soak tests can last months & then they are rolled out in stages depending on the following
Geographical location
Device variant
Retail (sim unlocked from purchase) or branded (bought from a carrier eg Vodafone or other non retail eg amazon)
If a Motorola chat person gives you a date it's because they are fed up with people asking & just want to get rid of you

Please do NOT post "Is Update, 7.x.x, O preview, etc" threads... 99.96% of these are purely speculative, and the other .04% are subject to change at any moment.
Also, before posting a thread, please ensure that there isn't ALREADY a similar thread previously posted as only ONE thread for each topic needs to be active in Xda.
Otherwise we'll have 6,824 threads about the next upcoming release, because everyone wants to see their name as OP, or can't check the forum to see if there is a thread about that topic already opened.
Please read and follow the forum rules BEFORE posting.
In this instance, pay particular attention to Rule #1
Thanks for your cooperation.

Oreo-rom released or not?

I found some info on the internet regarding stock Oreo-rom released in (some) parts of the world last year. :cyclops:
Is this true and if so, how come I can not find any downloads of this rom?
