When the heck is our chance to get Nougat and new security update? I'm on the unlocked Moto Z Play. Been checking their website and update still says pending. Even though the Force and Moto Z are getting it, they say pending too.

Hoping for N soon too. I thought all Z phones will get it by end of December. Been switching between my Z Play and Nexus 5x. Man is 7.1.1 nice. I'm hoping Moto doesn't abandon updates after 7.0. Personally I'd rather wait longer and get 7.1.1 for the Z Play.

I have the Force and a family member has the Play. Almost wish I never upgrade to 7.0. Lost the ability to do a few things with the upgrade.

Sorry the forum rules don't allow me to be specific.
I'll just say I have an unlimited date plan and should be able to use my data anyway I want.
It wasn't a "feature" so to speak.

I will say we swapped out sim cards and made it work.

Sounds like something dodgy is going on which Google has blocked in Nougat.

Moto Z Droid and Moto Z Force Droid I believe use the same firmware (at least, they're versioned the same). Moto Z Play Droid, Moto Z Play, and Moto Z are all on different tracks too.

Or you could pay for the feature like you agreed to. Tethering was a paid feature way back when unlimited plans were sold. It's not like they bait and switched you.

Hm a new security update I got a few days ago, but didn't install it.
Will stay on july patch until I hear about an update which is bug free (notification volume low etc)

Not want mess around with my phone, as far as i know july patch is the best OS , that's why i disable all update services.

I cam see lots of people mentioning it, but I don't have any issues with notification volume.

I assume you've checked all 3 volumes are set high in settings?

I'm not experiencing this issue either. Neither is my son. We're on the October security patch.

i still have no idea. I just know that I was reading here in this forum that if

"I am one of the lucky ones still on july patch without any bugs I should disable my moto update system service in apps immediately"

And that's what I did.

My OS is running perfectly fine no need to update anything and should stay that way.

As far as I know, if I update to october or december or ( whatever my updates are )... I can't roll back.

Only the August security update is claimed to have this issue, yet no one I've seen claiming to suffer this supposed issue has confirmed they've checked all 3 volume settings.

I'm now on August and don't have any issues at all.

Remember these are SECURITY updates. Ignoring them leaves you open to a number of nasty flaws.

Seems the October update is a prerequisite for Nougat.

As I only got August a week ago, I'm hoping my UK unlocked device will see it before Christmas.
