Re: OnePlus 6T android 11

I am bound by the NDA for the FUT program just like everyone else. Knowing how these builds are chosen, they aren't cherry picked. It's about a 1 to 3 ratio. You deal with your first party customers first and best and then worry about the others just enough to keep them happy. Asking for information and getting all defensive when it isn't what they want to hear isn't going to win further replies to the thread. The days of carriers doing much of anything with updates for any devices are long in the past. During the initial decision to buy and resell the OnePlus devices, T-Mobile chooses the features and terms of the updates they will get for the retail life of that product. Those things were decided before the 6T went on sale. With the merging of ColorOS and OxygenOS. There is no way a company is going to waste their time on a providing updates for a device that is beyondEven the 7 Pro and 7T's are end of life. Take a look at this OnePlus official post about the merging of the two OS's. 8 and newer are te focus. You might get a security update or two for your 6T or 7-series, but that is all you can expect. Especially with the OnePlus 10-series coming in 2022. https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/update-to-the-oxygenos-codebase-and-software-maintenance-schedule.1462181/ I wasn't defensive at all - I was pointing out that dragonfli was correct and reinforced that with an article source that stated the same thing. The general guidance for supportability of a device that you referenced is correct. The fact of the matter is that both Oneplus and T-Mobile stated that the Oneplus 6T would receive an update to 11. Even outside the supportability guidelines that were established. That's why it was such big news. Either way - they released it. I'm on it right now. No FUT program. No special NDA. They did exactly the opposite of what you stated in this thread. The went through the T-Mobile certification process and released the software as an OTA update. They supported a promise they made (both companies). I'm not here to battle you or to make shots at you. Like I said before there is too much disinformation that was being posted. I don't like disinformation. So I replied. The facts have now been proven. T-Mobile controlled the update to 6T devices. The global 6T got the update in September. We got ours in November. We cannot install the global OS on our 6T (not easily). We had to wait for the OTA. The Oneplus 6T T-Mobile variant received the Android 11 update outside the support window. And asking questions is _exactly_ what we should be doing. Why did we get a promise for 11? Why was documentation removed? That's the point of a forum. It's also common for mods in other forums to disclose information to answer questions. Asking for information in a forum from an official source is always what we should be doing. It'd even facilitate our conversation as we'd have authority stating it as opposed to two third parties.1Ver1like0Comentarios
