it won't most probably.. sammy doesn't give more than one major update to phones which aren't flagships (S & note series- not Neo)..
we'll get KitKat within the next couple of months hopefully! then we will be dependent on devs for further updates.
PS- next android version is lollipop if I'm not wrong..

Didn't watch the google I/O.. gotta check it out!
Android L with touchwiz, I don't think would be a great combination.
it will be updated i think
It will be updated to l i think beacuse it was launched in feb and there is google policy for 18 months and it was launched with 38k price tag and note 2 is discontinued at that place
n3n is selling it is not finalized yet but i will be finalized later i think take a look at screenshot.

it is good in nexus 5 and waiting for ours..
I sometimes wish that I hadn't bought this phone . I could never whole heartedly enjoy my phone since somewhere I knew there are very few chances of this phone being updated. I still wonder how samsung manages to still sell so much without timely updates for all of its devices. Not buying samsung again probably for the next few years until I see an improvement
Will stick to sony or Motorola or nexus series next time
This phone would no way get updated to Android L this year. May be six months from now in 2015 after Note 3 gets updated .
Even Nexus devices (Nexus 5) no longer get updates quick . It's all a matter of time
Hi everyone, im a long time Sony user, my actual phone is a Z1. It launched with Android 4.2 and it keep's updating until Android 5.1.1.
My question is, Motorola will keep releases in similar way?
I'm insterested in the Moto Z Play, probably i will buy it in two weeks, is a nice update to my actual phone and i love the idea of the motomods, JBL sound and extra battery are really nice.
Will this phone get one or two Androids release?
Thank you for reading.
It was on 6.0 and now 7.0, I think we can expect much mores updates
II disagree., we got N. I really do not foresee us getting O and if we do it will be so late into it that P would be due soon at that point.
But either way it is a nice phone.
thanks both of you for your answers!

Hey all, so it's April and I still haven't gotten an update for my Huawei! What the hell? When I go to update software on the watch, it says I'm up to date with 1.6! Help! Any ideas? Thank you.
just need to wait the same as the rest of us. or install 2.0 DP
This is ridiculous. It's nearly May. Why build the hype just to break our hearts?
Huawei is simply waiting to release OTA update because is trying to boost sales of their crappy Watch 2. I think they won't release it before May or even June. Next time better buy a device from another brand

There's no way I'm buying new watch ( that' not even close to looks of the original 1) just because of aw 2.0 ! If someone from sales in Huawei is seriously tinkering that option he should be fired.
Welcome to the club guys! We have been discussing this issue from the time when Android wear 2.0 was released. The discussion is here https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-watch/general/wear-2-0-official-t3553042/page63
It has never been so close
Watches that will receive Android Wear 2.0 end of April/late May
Moto 360 Gen 2
Moto 360 Sport
LG Watch Urbane 2nd Edition LTE
Huawei Watch
Huawei Watch Ladies
Asus ZenWatch 2
Asus ZenWatch 3

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.).

Follow this video: https://youtu.be/qVrBEmi35-E
Files are on his server.
I accidentally installed AW 1.4 but received updates to update so now I'm on AW 2.6 A7.1.1 october patch
Don't expect it for this device.
Just read on an Android Wear g+ community that it is only coming for the Huawei watch 2.

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.

Surely there will be a way to install as a custom Rom?

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.
Before we begin: NO, I WILL NOT PROVIDE A ZIP HERE.
OK, now when thats out of the way, lets Start with the most asked questions about Stock oreo for Moto G5.
1: Q: "Is the Beta out yet?"
A: Not yet, but very soon, as the Moto G5 MFN requests have Been accepted.
2: Q: "Can you provide the OTA ZIP?'
A: No, because
1:Its illeagel
2: Its made for a specific IMEI
3: It may damages your device.
3: Q: "How do we find out if Oreo Beta out? Using OTA?"
A: You cant find out if your Device's Bootloader is unlocked and if you didnt join MFN using this link:
https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Forum-...or-the-Motorola-Feedback-Network/td-p/3064626
Then, when the day comes, you get Oreo Beta if you are on Stock and have Bootloader unlocked at that momement.
4: Q: "I dont care about illeagel stuff how do i get the ZIP extracted?"
A: You cant!
Because you only recieve the update if youre Bootloader locked. Thus you cant access /cache. Unlocking the Bootloader after you downloaded the Update erases Cache and Userdata (as we all know)
5: Q: "So... Will Oreo ever come out?"
A: Of course it does! Just give motorola time!
I will edit this thread when More questions get asked.
You can disguss and ask questions here, but look at your grammar and think twice before asking something.
Thanks, P8tgames :good:
Nice, can't wait to see news about the beta for our device
Hope it comes out quick
Truly excited.
I suppose there might be a way if someone runs a traffic detector on his/her network and grabs the OTA link...
(By the way, check some typos in the first post, it says things like "illeagel").
Oreo? We will get a lousy November security patch update first. So Oreo maybe in March or April, I bet.

Well, it shouldn't take longer than march. If it does, it will be a tremendous dissapointment. My guess is february, maybe they will skip november and go straight to december-january
I got my g5 yesterday and it only has august 2017 security patch, so a 1 day old phone for me has only a 5 months old security patch available in it... I came from a G4 Play forgotten by motorola after they promised G4 Play users an update to android 7.0 more than a year ago and never delivered.... looks like I've fallen in the same trap again, damn.
