T-Mobile retroactively removes status updates related to software updates

Hey all.

Gracias @gramps28  for supplying that link for the Android update tracker. I did confirm with our teams that OnePlus is still developing the update for the 7T Pro 5G. There is no launch date for the update and it may be after the Android 13 update starts rolling out so that is why the page was removed at this time.  

A few things that I did want to clarify on the update process.

• T-Mobile and other carriers provide requirements to the OEMs that are taken into account during development. The manufacturers build the update and then we test it out before allowing it to be launched to our customers. We can reject an update if it does not meet our standards for quality.
• Starting development on an OS or update does not guarantee that it will be released. There are a ton of factors that can cause the decision to be made not to proceed with testing or deployment and that decision is usually made by the manufacturer unless the carrier tests the final product and say it is not to our standards.
