Android P Update is Coming

[spooke]

Spoke to the Live support for an issue I was having, thought I'd ask about Android P update coming to our phones. Seems like it is! :fingers-crossed:

Mobile Support
As of August 2018 Google, has begun to roll out Android P to select Pixel Phones. Razer will be working with Google to release Android P for the Razer Phone. We do not have a defined release date yet and the dates may vary based on your region and mobile provider. To ensure you get the release as soon as it is available, please be sure your Razer Phone always has the latest software updates installed.
7:25:02 AM

What are your thoughts, will we get it?

Early next year is my bet.

 

[freemini]

That’s my guess as well. Logically I’d assume it would be much faster considering the P GSIs already work for the most part. If the Razer Phone 2 launches with P, it might be sooner than that though.

 

[tay200k]

Yeah let's hope! This is truly my most favourite phone I've had in years.

 

[Yorita Yoshino]

Wow!This is a surprise.

I'm no fortune teller but if the Phone 2 doesn't come out with Pie I think we'll get it end of Q1 2019, same as Oreo for Phone 1.

Android 9

Just got off web chat with razer support. They said the mobile team are in the 'middle' of releasing pie.

No idea how long that means.

I found this: https://www.androidauthority.com/razer-phone-2-android-pie-update-954889/

It said in article that Razer rolling update for Razer Phone 2 on 27th Feb, hope Razer 1 will have update at the same time.

Gave up on all things Razer had a full desk set Blackwidow v2 keyboard naga trinity mouse
kraken v2 7.1s firefly chroma mat and a razer orb weaver, razer phone 1 and pretty much every phone case made including the official ones and some that were 3d printed, and hammerhead usb cs I bought with the phone, Min-Liang Tan made some huge boasts on the support side regular updates fast fixes he's full of crap talks bigger than he can back up abandoned like the nextbit robin guys, anyone who buys stuff of razer pray you don't have a warranty claim , synapse 3 has been beta for 2 years and it still doesn't support half their products, 1 product can mean having to run v2 and v3 and either set your lighting to a fixed colour as chroma wont sync between the 2 programs.

TL:dr good hardware let down by mickey mouse software

Razer phone 2 OTA update to Android P already in place. I guess Razer phone 1 will not be getting Android P.

It says on this page that RP1 is under evaluation for Pie, whatever that means https://support.razer.com/mobile/razer-phone-2/

Razer Phone 2 from what I've read just started to get there's yesterday.

In any case, the fact that they released Pie for aura makes me hope cheryl gets it too. I certainly don't expect it these days, but maybe in the future.

 

[sinkoo1979]

At least update the security patch or make the phone work better with GSI.

Just confirmation that RP1 is still receiving Pie

is that person with the blue check next to their name associated with razer?

A quick Google search makes it seem like that. It'd be weird if he wasn't related to Razer. Anyway, I wonder what "soon" means to him.

yeah the razer 2 support site says under evaluation and razer support told me "still under evaluation", then thanks for your patience, all we can do is be patient, and thanks for the positive attitude.
