My phone is a Moto Z2 Play. This will not apply to everyone, but this is what finally fixed the issue for me. I tried the forget network, reset network settings, and messed with router settings to no avail. I had the phone for over a year without issues. Then I did a factory reset (due to...

I believe you are correct, retla = Latin america. However I read on a support forum where a moderator said updates don't use Software Channels. Someone was worried they would not get an update because their software channel was empty. Mod said that some phones don't show a Software Channel...

No carrier purchase. It was purchased as a unlocked phone. You can use it with any carrier that supports Bring Your Own Device - in my case I chose Cricket. It can be used in any country also. That is why I think my Android updates come straight from Moto/Lenovo. My Software Channel is...

I have the unlocked Z2 play. I'm on Cricket, BYOD, but being unlocked I don't get the updates from Cricket. I believe they come directly from Moto/Lenovo. I get all kinds of security updates, but no OS. I'm in the US. I run the Update search and get nothing. I guess I will have to...

Hey they say we are going to get an Android Pie update! But then again they said that about Oreo and we never got that. So I would not hold your breath...

Ah, I missed that. I wonder if there is much difference between the models. If most changes would be the same.

Looks like they actually released it for real in Brazil. So hopefully to US soon. https://www.phonearena.com/news/Motorola-pushing-Moto-Z-Android-8.0-Oreo-update-some-users_id103483

Oh no, does this mean no Oreo update? Motorola layoffs rumored. https://9to5google.com/2018/03/08/rumor-motorola-layoffs-moto-z/

That is weird. I would have thought all apps could be installed there too.

I don't like the idea that it can only be used in that device forever. So I went with portable storage. Also, be aware, you need to have the fast version of SD cards for it to work. There is specifications online about it. I think it may do a speed test on the card before it clobbers it...
