T-Mobile retroactively removes status updates related to software updates

lol not even close sport..you should go join OnePlus Beta testing...you’ll get a better idea of who actually handles all of it..

the carrier sends what all they want included in their variants..they dont do the actual updates..same goes for what all carrier specific stuff needs to be added in..

different manufacturer but they all do it exactly the same
