Please check if there is native video calling option in 8.1, because in India we need that feature in Volte phones.Moreover Lenovo phones do have native video calling where as they donot provide the same in G5s+.

The link is appreciated, will confirm when i've installed. Shame its quite slow.
It's to be expected, given that Google Drive appears to be the only source of the soak test and so is probably really busy at the moment!

You'll need NPSS26.116-61-8 or OPS28.49-2 to flash this OTA (and as always, you need a clean stock firmware, no TWRP/root etc. I don't think unlocked bootloader status matters).

Code:
<snip>
ui_print("Source: motorola/sanders/sanders:7.1.1/NPSS26.116-61-8/15:user/release-keys");
ui_print("Target: motorola/sanders/sanders:8.1.0/OPS28.49-2/202c:user/release-keys");
<snip>
Package expects build thumbprint of 8.1.0/OPS28.49-2/202c:user/release-keys or 7.1.1/NPSS26.116-61-8/15:user/release-keys

Important announcement:

If you have used the Persist G4 to recover the IMEI this update will eliminate the same, they must be in android stock, without TWRP, without root, and with the Persist of the corresponding G5s Plus, otherwise, they will have errors.

Can you please explain me how? a brief explanation if you want, It could help me.
I've listed a couple of possible methods here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76822114&postcount=2 Though they are for the Z Play, they may work for the G5S Plus as well (I've not tried them though).

Be aware you need to be on NPSS26.116-61-8 for this soak test OTA to work, if you're on that build you posted it won't flash. You'll have to wait for another soak test build or the official Oreo OTA otherwise.

What a shame! I saw soak test OTA was launched for Indian, Brazilian and American versions, but not for Latin America version :(

Yeah, Brazil and India are frequently the regions for soak tests (perhaps even the US from what you mentioned?), with other regions waiting for the official roll-out if the soak test OTA requirements don't match their build. This OTA soak test (Blur_Version.26.336.15.sanders.retail.en.US.zip) appears to only be flashable on that firmware, which I understand is the April 2018 security patch?

For anyone wondering where I'm getting this build requirement, in the OTA zip, navigate to META-INF > com > google > android. Open the updater-script in Notepad/Wordpad or your preferred text editor. Look for the 'Package expects build thumbprint of' line. Or analyze the script I've uploaded (which is from that OTA).

Oreo's still in testing. Motorola sometimes rolls out security updates whilst testing is on going. Once the test is completed, you should get Oreo.

I'd have thought users would be happy with updated security patches whilst waiting for the major update...
