6X not updating to Nougat...

[dpham00]

Weird. My Honor 8 had zero issues updating it.

It was stuck on one update. After that it went through OK for subsequent updates

 

[dpham00]

Possibly. Wonder if they know this

Probably. People probably complained.

 

[dpham00]

I really wonder how much work it takes to do security patches. Even big android OEM don't update their lines monthly

Well it's a process for carrier phones. Some are on October patches

 

[dpham00]

My honor 8 updated right away also.
For me the update was a mistake.
Quit using it about a month after the nougat update.

Well it was a very major change for sure. I liked the changes but at the time many people didn't.

Ah okay. Didnt sound too bad

 

[Aljean Thein]

I really liked the emui 5. I'm surprised how many didn't like it.

 

[Aljean Thein]

Probably. People probably complained.

I hope. Let the company know so they'll get it right and fix it.

 

[dpham00]

Ah okay. Didnt sound too bad

It was pretty bad though. I mean it was many months and probably 3 or so updates that i could not get OTA

I am not surprised.

Sure it's on their list... Sometime after updating the 5x.

Oh wow. Didnt know it was like that.

 

[Aljean Thein]

Yes, we'll see them improve it in our next life cycle.

 

[dpham00]

Oh wow. Didnt know it was like that.

Yup. And if I didn't force the update, it probably wouldn't be updated today OTA

 

[dpham00]

Yes, we'll see them improve it in our next life cycle.

Maybe... Or they will abandon it all together.

The quickest way to build a following is to update your frigging products.

Perhaps there is fault with consumers also.
Lots of us jump on pre-orders and new phones at first light.
I grow so very tired of the idiotic cycle.

For people like us, that's absolutely true. I suspect the majority - that is, the folks who never read blogs like Android Central or iMore - couldn't care less about updates.

True.
Describes my wife and others I know completely.

Apple released that auto-correct fix last week, and I updated all of our iDevices immediately. Just this morning, on one of my health & fitness forums, I encountered someone who still hadn't updated. Granted, that's not a security update and Apple explicitly identifies security updates as such. Regardless, it was hard to believe she hadn't already updated with all the publicity around that issue.

So true. That describes me unfortunately. I wish I had more patience.

That is unfortunately true. Most people I know not only don't care about updates but don't want to get them.
