Has anyone heard when the sprint version of the HTC U11 is gonna get Oreo update.

[NightOrchid]

Dont worry...Your not the only one buddy... We dont have it over here in UK or Europe either (CID_001) .. I think its just available for Open USA..

But if you read around some forums and threads... it looks as if the first Oreo release on the U11 has a few bugs and issues, so for me... Ide rather wait for the fixed update

[dwb3838]

Yea that's true don't want something that's gonna mess my phone up.

[mfreeland]

By the shear amount of app updates I'm guessing soon......

[jcdub]

It was promised before the end of 2017, but I doubt it'll arrive before then bugs or not. HTC UK / Europe have been quiet about it when asked. HTC said it'll be announced through media channels when it's due for release. 🤤

I've had Oreo since the latter part of November and I havent experience any bugs or issues.

I had a conversation with a friend of mine regarding the release of Oreo for the U11.
Basically with the introduction of the U11+ in certain parts of the world which has Oreo out of the box. HTC has held back on the Oreo update for the U11 in order to try push the sales of the plus model with Oreo.
This is showing lack of respect for those who've bought the original U11. So in the near future I'll be selling my U11 and moving on to a different manufacturer, possibly Pixel or Nokia 9 when released

I just messaged Mo Versi at HTC via Twitter. Will update if he responds. Happy New Year!

If you have a read of the U11 forum on XDA.. theres quite a few reported issues going on with it

Exactly my thoughts too.. and youd think HTC would be desperate and eager for all the support they can get right now, especially after the hammering the U Ultra got (which it didnt deserve BTW).. but im in the same mind myself... because some aspects of Sense are looking really dated now, even from the M8 days... and it would be nice to see a UI overhaul .... With all these winter/January sales now on... Im looking at maybe a Pixel 2 xl at some point

I know HTC update everything over Google Play... and just update the bare-bones firmware every 3-4 months.. but they should at least say something...

HTC UK have been called out on Twitter over the lack of the update as promised by the end of 2017 and the fact they are not replying to their followers about the same question. Maybe android central or android media group should ask HTC what the delay is..

We’re sorry for the delay in delivering your Oreo update for the HTC U11. We have started to roll out the update globally but have had some complexities that have caused a delay to our release in Europe. Please bear with us and we’ll let you know more as soon as we can.

[dwb3838]

Still no word on the U11 Sprint version either which was also suppose to be out by the end of 2017 but nobody will tell you anything about it 😠😠

[jcdub]

Finally Oreo being released in Europe from today

[jcdub]

Received it yesterday, came with October security update!

[dwb3838]

Well the HTC 10 unlocked just got the update before the U11 sprint version. Might have to check out the next pixel3 on Verizon.

[dwb3838]

Were you at.

I just got the 8.0 update to my phone. I'm in Ireland.......it's the UK version, has anyone installed it and how did it work out??

Hi, how has this worked out for you??

Any advice on what to do prior to updating......will I remove the SD card?

You should be fine without removing the SD card. The only thing I did after the update was wipe the cache partition

You wouldn't be able to give a step by step on how to do that.

There are differing instructions on the interweb!

I would very much appreciate it.

[slyguy0]

I've done it numerous times using these instructions. Never a problem.

Thats more Sprint's fault than HTC
