Good news guys Looks like Google is giving us treats for the holiday season.
https://www.gsmarena.com/android_wear_devices_to_get_oreo_update_starting_today-news-28614.php
I'm guessing that every watch that is supported by AW2.0 will also be getting Oreo update. Yes, original Huawei watch is already beyond the 2 year support period but i don't think that the same rules goes for watches like it's usually the case with phones. Do you think original HW will be getting Oreo? I mean, we got new security update some days ago so it's still supported
I hope so,waiting for the update in a month.
In comments on articles about this, people have been reporting even the original Moto 360 is already getting this. I'm not sure the relationship between android version and android wear code but maybe it's pretty easy to merge the Oreo updates with the manufacturer's code now that they are on AW 2.0.

The original moto 360 never even made it to android wear 2.0, so I highly doubt it is getting this update.

The fact that we got a security update doesn't mean much. There were some pretty high profile vulnerabilities that needed patching (KRACK, etc.).

That sucks :/ I kinda knew this would happen eventhough i was optimistic and hopeful that Huawei Watch still gets it. So, it's finally the end of software support for our beloved original HW **** you, you ugly ass HW2!
Can someone explain this End Of Life situation though...? The Huawei Watch is STILL on sale via Huawei's direct website! Surely they shouldn't be selling a watch without providing the software support seriously!? I thought the deal was 2 years after the device goes on sale or 18 months after it stops being on sale (whichever is longer).
I think this statement needs to be reiterated to Huawei and Google.
Also I bought the watch thinking the support life would be alot longer than a phone... People don't buy +£200 watches for only 2 years usage.
This "policy" may have just made me decide that I'm not interested in Android Wear anymore... Even my Pixel 2 will have a longer shelf life!
EOL is not here yet, just no Oreo. This is near the bottom of the article.
Some of the watches dropped from support include the ASUS ZenWatch 2 and 3, the original Fossil Q Founder, the LG G Watch R/Urbane/Urbane LTE, the second-gen Moto 360 and 360 Sport, and the original Huawei Watch. Those watches will continue to get Android Wear updates (like the recent v2.6 update) through the Play Store, but the underlying Android version will be stuck on Nougat.

The only one for the HW1 is discontinued. The dev's watch died and Huawei gave him a watch 2. If another dev steps up, yes, but since there was only one and that dev does not plan to continue.
The thing is I only love the look of HV1 watch. Most stylish. There is no other V2 watch out there that comes close.
I have a Huawei Mate 10 running Oreo so it's a shame my watch won't match my phone.
Custom ROMs are our only hope now!

Well actually, just staying on wear 2 isn't a bad option, it still works wonderfully.
I agree. The more that Huawei Watch (1) is still officially on sale and is more expensive in stores than Huawei Watch 2.
I've made a post on their Swedish FB-site, here in Sweden it is still actively sold by two of Huawei's recommended resellers advertised at Huawei's site.
Can we figure out if the 18 months after sale claim is valid for Wear as well as regular Android? And was this formulated before or after the launch of the Watch?
I spoke to Huawei Technical Service. They do not have anywhere indicated that they provide support for 18 months from purchase / production. They claim that it depends on Google - not from them. They do not guarantee anything
It's a pity, because I have their P9 Plus smartphone and Watch 1 smartwatch and I think it makes the highest-class flagship.

It sounds like Android Wear should be updated "soon" and we "should" have the speaker support all of us Huawei Watch owners have been longing for.
The next version of Android Wear is being tested on the Huawei Watch from the sounds of it. I would bet (hope) the Huawei Watch sees the update first! Here is a link to the article by Android Police:

I was just coming over to post the same article. This may make my regret of leaving the Gear S go away!
This is why I bought this watch, for speakerphone support on Wear 1.4 update.
The ZenWatch 2 also has a speaker and should also receive an update. No other Wear watches have a speaker.
I hope that this is not fake.

Yea this is not fake.
The LG Urbane 2 LTE came with this version and had the speaker enabled. The Urbane was supposed to release with it but was recalled due to some "hardware" issues.
I specifically bought the Huawei watch for this specific reason. Watch calls from inside my pool this summer, yes!
I WISH they would include an option for a keyboard. Yes it is not ideal or reasonable for normal use, but there are some times when it would be awesome. Options are always good, even if they are disabled by default. Even a T9 style old school input would be awesome.

I use these two apps:

And

They are both replacement apps and are by the same Dev and have tiny keyboards that can be gotten used to!
They also have a web browser that works... well... It works...
I hope this is real. I'd love to have audio notifications on my H Watch.
Just waiting for someone to leak the firmware and confirm its true.
The guy who recieved the update didn't make a system dump before installing the update. This can only be done BEFORE installing. So there is no hope, we will get the update from him. Unless there is another user that copies the update.zip before installing.
On the other hand he won't be the only one to recieve this test build.

This device has an unlocked bootloader and a redily available copy of twrp.
ANY ONE who got that update could distribute it with in just a few minutes...
1. Receive update.
2. Let it apply
3. Unlock bootloader
4. Flash TWRP
5. Back up entire system
6. Post to internet.
But to what you are saying... Yes, it is correct that you can only get the update.zip before install. However see my point about getting the entire deal.
Then anyone could restore his TWRP back up and have whatever it is he has...
Perhaps newer builds of the firmware will be more widely tested soon, and more likely to leak out.....
The thing that's bothering me is that perhaps we might not get this firmware at all, and that it might be for testing features in a new 2016 watch from Huawei.
figures crossed we WILL get a download of this soon
Huawei confirms the original Huawei Watch has NFC and Android Pay is being tested on it
The rollout of Android Wear 2.0 has brought about a couple of interesting tidbits, including what we find to be a massive new piece of information about the original Huawei Watch: it has NFC.
The original Huawei Watch, which is set to receive it’s Android Wear 2.0 update soon, will be getting an additional piece of functionality in that an update will soon enable a dormant NFC chip in the watch.
In a statement to Ausdroid, Huawei has confirmed that the original Huawei Watch does have NFC, with Android Pay functionality currently in testing by the Android team at Google. The update to enable Android Pay on the original Huawei Watch may not go live straight away with the update to Android Wear 2.0, with a time-frame of Q3 given for the Android Pay functionality to go live.
The statement was given alongside confirmation that the Hauwei Watch 2, which will launch in Australia later this year alongside the Huawei P10 also has NFC built-in with support for Android Pay, but that support is functional out of the box.
The original Huawei Watch is still one of our favourite Android Wear watches available here at Ausdroid, and they’re getting cheaper as the launch of the Huawei Watch 2 approaches. In terms of functionality, it’s a massive step forward for owners of the original Huawei Watch.

Just got a answer from HuaweiGermany.. the Huawei Watch definitly don´t has NFC built-in.. so more speculations about this and Android Pay are not neccessary

Ausdroid is neither an official nor a reliable source. Huawei Watch does not have a NFC compatible hardware... its hardware has already been analyzed long time ago and though MSM8926 processor on some units migh have NFC support it doesn't have other hardware components required to use it.

Calm down.. It was planned for march, but delayed because of an new bug.. they are actually optimizing the new bug-free AW 2.0.. it should be available in few days, an employee from HuaweiGermany told me

Yeah, sure would be nice, however it's highly un probable.
then there is this: http://www.androidcentral.com/huawei-watch-nfc-nope
It could explain why is taking too much time to release the update. I have latest preview version in my watch and is working fine.
Article was recalled.
There was a new security update for the Verizon version of the Moto E4 this week. It may have been released across the whole Moto E4 product line.
Besides securing the phone from the Blueborne Bluetooth weakness, the update also updated the camera app.
I was pleasantly surprised with both.
Does anyone know if the camera is performing any better in low light? The camera has been one of the few big weaknesses of this great cheap phone.
My Boost Mobile Moto E4 has received a whopping ZERO updates. It's still sitting on the May security patch... Hopefully we actually receive the update at some point.

Waiting and hoping... The story of Android.
The kicker, I have a LG Stylo 2, that was updated to the September security patch a couple of weeks ago, in fact LG has supported that phone consistently throughout the years. Sad to see Motorola, who builds basically a AOSP phone, unable to provide updates in any sort of consistent manner. I like Android, but that's way I switched over to iPhone... Timely Support.

This is amazing. For an old ass watch. Thanks Google
Wow great to hear that such an old watch still getting an update.
Anyway, still can't find any new smart watches that I think it's worthy to replace my Huawei Watch 1.
I saw a few videos talking about this update.. excited to see it! and glad its coming to our watch! i was just reading on how a lot of people downgrade from AW2.0 to AW1.5 because of how poor AW2.0 is.. I wonder if this new one will be better than both.
Hold your horses. So far, the only evidence we have that we're getting this update is an uncited and unknown Google rep saying that "all watches with 2.0" will get it. No official Google announcement has confirmed this that I can find. Also, that "list of phones that definitely won't get it" is from a Google post released in 2017 that simply states which phones will not get Android Wear 2.0. Call me a pessimist, but I'm far from convinced that we're getting this.
And if we do get it, I doubt it will be in the form of a firmware update, as some have reported. I suspect it will be just an update to the Wear OS app.

Just got an update; frustrated to see it is "android wear 2.16."
Apparently the wear os update is limited to oreo devices, but ours is nougat.
https://m.gsmarena.com/the_redesign...ling_out_to_smartwatches_today-news-33513.php
My guess is that this update is not a firmware update but mearly a wear os launcher redesign/update (supposition made based on the available screenshots) and maybe also of some apps such as google fit. This is why all devices get it (on wear 2.0) as it does not depend directly on wear os base version (Nougat / Oreo).
Edit: although from the gsmarena article the update is called Wear OS 2.1, so who knows. We play the waiting game...
I wish we would have a clear answer, I got a bit excited thinking I would have it and tried forcing an update in various ways.
i'm excited for the new Wear OS (3.0?) .. i'm still on 2.16.. Someone let us know when it arrives!

It's rolling out now. There's a complicated but confirmed working (I did it) method to trigger it that has been described in other threads on this forum. People have also reported triggering it by uninstalling and reinstalling the wear os app from the watch. Either way, you'll probably see it any day now.
As I suspected, it's a wear os app update (must be version 2.16 or later), not a firmware update.

Employees in Xiaomi support suck a**. They don't know the slightest thing they're talking about. Last time I asked them when we were gonna get the Android 10 update they told me "very soon", "we're working on it" etc. All evasive responses. Some other dude asked Xiaomi support and they told him we'd get it two weeks after he asked which was about 1,5 months ago. So, don't trust Xiaomi support, they don't know what they're saying/doing. But I believe in January we'll get the update, a really crappy one. Just like how it was with Android Pie, full of bugs and missing features. LOL :laugh:

Last time I asked them when we were gonna get the Android 10 update they told me "very soon", "we're working on it" etc. All evasive responses. Some other dude asked Xiaomi support and they told him we'd get it two weeks after he asked which was about 1,5 months ago. So, don't trust Xiaomi support, they don't know what they're saying/doing. But I believe in January we'll get the update, a really crappy one. Just like how it was with Android Pie, full of bugs and missing features. LOL :laugh:

Or you know, support robots, canned messages that promises Android 10 etc., yet nothing happened, just to ignore lots of peoples' queries, but instead, meaningless blurbs by Xiaomeme. No surprises here.
Anyway, custom ROM scenes did better job at this than Xiaomeme. Glad I don't go wait with their 'bUg FiXeS aNd ImPrOvEmEnTs' updates.

I agree that the Custom ROMs are very stable right now, but I can't trust them. That's the reason I'm still using stock ROM with locked BL in 2019 haha. I wish Xiaomi cared more for their Android One devices, but it seems they only wanted hop on another trend real quick and they are technically not giving a sh*t at all. When I first bought this phone, I expected all Android One devices to run the same OS, but somehow Nokia Android One devices get better, faster and more polished updates. I wish I had gotten the Nokia 7.1 when I had the chance. Shame.

Wise! Beware of open source.
