So is Android 12 ready for the OnePlus 7T pro McLaren yet??? Been waiting all year… my phone's starting to do weird things.
You Too! I noticed that as well. I thought I'd was my internet but nope. Lags, freezes, response issues. Incoming Call and WiFi hearing issues. This phone was great at first but updates started coming out for other phones os and T-Mobile is still playing around. At this rate they should just skip 12 and boost us to 13. Makes no sense for T-Mobile to send out 12 when it's been out since 2021 already and feets are dragging this long. Only reason why I haven't tried rooted and replaced is stability, camera function, and encryption. Any solutions or options since we might not be getting an update?
BTW I've got the 7TPro. McLaren edition
Hey all! I know everyone is looking on a clear-cut expectation of when the Android 12 update is coming. I did some digging and was able to get confirmation that development work is still being done and expected release is December 2022.
I know that is still a while away, and if you are having issues now, that may not be the most helpful. We have some other troubleshooting things that can be done in order to fix software hiccups like you are seeing. Before I start making suggestions, what steps have you already taken to try and resolve the issues you are seeing? @TCBelly @ZetaRayZed13
You know this isn't how it works @syaoran
This device is the "Hotdogg" Variant so if you went to the forums that's where you'd find several having this exact problem. In those posts you find people trying to flash their 7T Pro 5G McClaren Edition with those ROMs and its glitchy or doesn't work. Also, if what you're saying is true, and flashing can void you warranty or even brick a device, I guess that means you're proving me rigjt? Because that means being End of Life really does increase risk of bricking, cause even if you try to fix it, you might brick it anyways. Interesting cause it feels like we don't have a "right to repair" this device because we were sold this Variant with that premise of the unlocking bootloader, for it to not matter.
As much as you think me making a stink is bad, one good thing that could happen is 3rd party development starts on a ROM. Maybe T-mobile could even fund it. We could call it "TheDirtyDeletePatch" and have the community members who have invested in this device be employed by tmobile to make the most out of it. The users of OnePlus phones are enthustiants and would love the recognition, and to help where tmobile lacks.
Most people aren't here for posting, they just wanna update the phone dangit. The bootloader option isn't reality for 90% of people.
What sucks though is that @syaoran I know that you know this isn't how this works because you know that T-Mobile had an update page made for the OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McClaren Edition and you knew they deleted that page.. You've been active with me on this for months. You've got every excuse for it before, but now you've given up and resigned to admitting the device is end of life. That's a change of tone! Why? The question is, why now? Do you have new information that the update isn't coming? Could it be the mounting evidence of deleted pages and posts?
Also, why do you act like I'm the enemy when I'm actually the man of the people? You act like I'm angry posting but I'm passion posting. I love customer service and it pains me to see it go so, so badly.
It's amazing, that we got @syaoran to admit the update isn't coming hwen before we had to go to great lengths to explain that the T-mobile tracker being deleted was a problem for the T-mobile exclusive Variant. That tracker said "development stage" so it being deleted made me think, dang, guess it didn't pass development. I realized though that's just a guess since the page didn't update to say "yeah Android 12 ain't comin" like it should have. It pains me that you denied that for so long, kept up with fake deadlines, only to agree Its End of Life but that even if that's the case, it's not a problem.
You very literally picked up the goalposts and moved it to where it felt more comfortable for you if I "scored" but unfortunately I see right through it. I think we should have fanfare for you admitting it's not arriving. I can't believe it. We flipped one in the jury. You agree the device will not get software update. Can't imagine why you've been telling users the contrary for months, but whatever secures the bag.
