Android 9.0 Pie Update for Vivo Nex

[Xumit]

So, Android Pie 9.0 is released today, and the update will be available today for Google phones as well as essential phone.

Anyone who has used Vivo phones in past has any idea how much time does Vivo take to release the new version to their devices? Eagerly waiting to taste a new Android and hoping that Vivo cuts down the Extravagant iOS-ish UI and goes for much cleaner, stock UI.

Could take 3-4months at the minimum .

Starting today, an over-the-air update to Android 9 will begin rolling out to Pixel phones. And devices that participated in the Beta program from Sony Mobile, Xiaomi, HMD Global, Oppo, Vivo, OnePlus and Essential, as well as all qualifying Android One devices, will receive this update by the end of this fall.

Great to know! Hope they release an update to Nex soon and demonstrate their dedication to international audience.

Anyway, android p or not, we won't see the difference with "Fun"touch OS

I wish there was a way to load Stock Android on this thing.

Only if vivo give us appropriate source codes. Or all specific peripherals, especially pop-up camera and fingerprint will be not working. The problem is not with loading itself, OEM drivers are needed to compile stock android for using with this device.

Yup, me too. But we won't see much UI difference since it't Funtouch OS.

I wouldn’t expect it earlier than end of December for Nex S.

No unfortunately we won’t.
Funtouch OS will remain with the same restrictions as before and iOS style UI.

Only hope to see improvement with some key elements feature like unlimited third party app notifications support to AOD.

Current status really sucks.
