Welp, people with bootloader unlocked devices might be able to emulate signature of another device to keep passing cts/google play certification (if Google going to revoke it, and its possible that they will).

For everyone else who doesn't have unlocked bootloader, its not going to be fun. Migrate to Huawei Pay. :eek:
Still no idea how it will affect Android updates, but it will at least be delayed now. We have to wait for Huawei response, because they have to give statement until their business in ROW (anywhere aside of Asia) burns.

Is Trump's executive order because of the trade dispute or fears of spying? Or he just decided on an executive order because he lost a bet?

Yeah exactly another collateral damage and derivatives from Trade Dispute. He uses his 'exclusive rights' trying to curb competition from another country's manufacture ZTE was a previous example.

Trump the dictator wants to slow Huawei (and China in general) down by any means possible. He sent his henchmen all over to world to bully nations to stop using Huawei kit, but most didn't listen. His only last card to play was to "blacklist" Huawei from doing business with US companies, this is the nuclear option. Trump and his flunkies know that western 5G vendors are about 18 months behind Huawei, so they were looking at ways to sabotage the company and this is it. Plain and simple, there's no spying or tin-foil-hat conspiracies, only that Trump can't handle losing to the Chinese. The backlash from the BS move will be massive .. Let's wait and see, I think it'll be reversed.

ORANGE MAN BAD, eh? Huawei has been a target of the U.S. long before Trump was in office. I guess Huawei stealing Billions of R&D from Nortel is just 'okay' by you, then. As far as the spying goes, everyone is spying. The whole Iran sanction thing is also laughable. Just please don't pretend that Huawei isn't an arm of the Chinese government, and that they are wholly innocent on the World stage.

This all sucks, I guess we will be stuck with AOSP updates until there is some actual real development for this phone. sigh, should have stuck with a Samsung I guess.

From the Google statement, it looks like existing devices will be covered. But... Just how much effort is Huawei going to put into keeping a smattering of people happy? Are we ever going to see the 9.1 update now? Or, anything but barebones security updates? Bleh, it was always a bit of a risk to go with this phone, I hope we see real development for 3rd party roms.

Existing devices will continue to work but will get no more updates including security updates, unless those are made available to AOSP
