Looks like the release date for the Note 4 Edge is October 10th. Who else is looking forward to the new phone? I have an upgrade waiting...
What features/software are you most looking forward to using?
--Mike
I'm looking forward to its release
Please take all device specific off topic discussion to this thread.

I created this hashtag so those of us who are still waiting for the kernel sources to be pushed out for OP3/3T, twelve days after the official update to Nougat, can make an active affirmation on Twitter, Facebook, reddit, Instagram and so on... in an organized way.
I am not a developer.
Rather an enthusiastic user with taste for that special flavour on my device.
I'm not trying to start a discussion here, it has already started on development threads.
Now make some noise, but please be civilized.
#WhyNoKernelSourcesYetOnePlus
Honestly, that's a pretty awful tag. Should be like half that length.
They said they don't want to release bad code.
They said 4.0.2 is coming next week.
They are not yet confident with their N releases. Fair enough.

If it's good enough to be publicly released as stable OTA, then it's also good enough for code release.

Code should be dropped with the OTA go spam them on twitter and remind them to be dev friendly

It's not about spamming. It's about asking for the sources. If they drop them before sending the first units when releasing a device they should do the same for new system updates.
Paranoid me is thinking that they dropped Nougat, everyone updated... Gathering data for weeks, going to throw another update our way and release sources after they scrubbed the data suckers.
Putting the tin foil hat back on now
?
So OnePlus when ????
XDA article posted ... Let's hope it helps.

If you release a OTA you release the sources as well, that's how it works here.

XDA-Developers Urges OnePlus to Comply with GPLv2 and Release Kernel Sources
While XDA-Developers, and a large sector of its user base, have been routinely impressed by OnePlus’ commitment to supporting the developer community, we’ve been anxiously awaiting the release of kernel sources for the OnePlus 3/3T since the release of Android Nougat on December 31, 2016. [...]

Let's cut them some slack, they want it very usable before they release it, its not like they would never
I can't find anything about "cutting some slack" on the GPL license, but it's clear that they have to release the source code even if it is full of bugs.
Thread closed at OP's request.

Without unlocking the bootloader it will be difficult ?
please stop asking questions nobody knows... it will be out when its ready.
Interestingly Huawei offered to update my phone beyond the Three UK v134 ..... But only if I sent the phone off to their engineers.

First, it was a legitimate question that somebody working at the appropriate place could very well know the answer to, second it is ready according to Huawei's own Weibo account.
I did hear from a couple of users that they've been told by Huawei Europe that the roll out of emui 9 will be on or near December 22 (Croatia and Serbia respectively).
I spoke with a Huawei Canada customer service representative who told me that the November 10 roll out was for Chinese models only and that no specific date has been provided for the North American release. They suggested following Huawei Mobile on social media for updates
?
So the more answers they give, the more questions remain.
If Europe is getting it December 22, the rest of the world can't be far behind.

Yes, Huawei Croatia said that roll out will be on December 22, and Huawei Serbia talk only about December (without precise day)
Conversely, you can try using Firmware Finder from the app store. I suggest watching a YouTube video on how to use it properly to install any available firmware for your Huawei device.
Given uk devices are still waiting on GPU turbo update that rolled out to other devices in the summer, I expect we might get pie by Easter?.... And I really wish that was sarcasm.
It seems the beginning will be 22nd of December, but national operators will hold it a bit, as usual.
I just contacted Three support to ask when updates (any updates!) are being pushed.... they responded:
"the android version are available on the Google store, Three provide with the phone and not android version."
Erm... what?!?!?!
---------- Post added at 17:11 ---------- Previous post was at 16:13 ----------
I've managed to speak to a customer relations manager - they are pushing an update next week, but won't say what version it is!
"As this point of time, the technical team are not ready to reveal that information. As they have been told by Huawei not to reveal this information till the software is realeased."!!
I have, however, managed to convince them to release me from the 24mth contract so I can return the phone. Fed up with the lack of development caused by the bootloader unlock issue, and the ridiculous lack of updates.
Anyone seen this?

The models listed in the article should be the same ones that have EMUI 9 available for download through the Firmware Finder app.
Unfortunately, my model isn't listed as I'm sure others are missing too.
My model is listed in the article but not in firmware finder for pie
Not sure about trying it myself
Supposedly there might be a release to a major European market by the end of next week. I'd wait before trying something that's uncertain. Hopefully Canada isn't too far behind.
Last time Three UK told me something was "imminent" it was security patches that were already outdated and no new features at all.

Here you go, all. Copied from Huawei Global's official Twitter account. It was tweeted out today (November 19 at 6:25am). Official global rollout has begun.

Weird tho as firmware finder doesn't show latest pie build except for China.
Just had an email from Xiaomi UK customer support saying after the MIUI 12 update we should expect to see further updates to the device. It's a flagship device in the UK and one of the only Xiaomi devices sold on all major UK networks so it's to be expected they would need to start getting updates out for it.
Here is the email:
Dear Sir/Madam
Greetings from Xiaomi
Thank you for contacting us, We’re sorry to hear about this , we wanted to assure the stable software to be sent out for our 5G devices , there will be an update soon via MIUI 12 update , we could assure that you will receive further updates.
Best Regards,
Thanks, Let's hope they follow through
I wish that is true, but honestly I doubt it. I got this 5g version in a sale but I didn't imagine it was abandoned by Xiaomi.
Unfortunately miui 12 with Android 9. A shame! Untill the end of September they should update this unlucky phone
There seems to be mixed reports coming out Xiaomi regarding this, some customer service reps are saying October and others (more recent referencing this article: https://www.gizmochina.com/2020/07/...-mix-3-5g-says-xiaomi/#:~:text=GizmoChina.com ) are saying discontinued. Unfortunately at this stage it is a wait and hope scenario.
I found this on reddit

Not receiving push notifications is fatal... I think too
Probably an optimization for the game, but it's not necessary.
However, I like the hardware very much.
Fastboot ROM source code will probably not be released as it is.
[email protected] or you're able to comment on the issue.

Let's laugh... Hah-hahha
Kernel will not be released, at least for while you're alive.
I'm hating all of this so much, a simple file, they have to upload a single file, and after 26-27 days nothing to be seen. This is not the only issue, there is another one with the same answer. It is as if air came out of thei mouths
Im trying to ask myself why still they haven't upload the kernel source yet? There's so much hardware potential on the phone being hold back just waiting to get unleashed .
Hoping they'll released it this year together with others 865 devices
i contacted them, the same Jason answered me :

We have not released KR for BS3 yet, which would take awhile for the leadership to make such strategic decision.

We will if you stop thinking that way but instead you can comment on that github page coz the devs are replying there. Demand that we really need them to release the souces. You should get what's your $ worth and it might become your most worth it buy when they decided to release it

This is an LOL! If the LEADERS STRATEGY is to increase the sales, then releasing the kernel sources will definitely attracts more users because of the phone's development potential will increase by 10 folds.

I see. Thanks for doing that. Hmmm this is frustrating and disappointing. I wish there's a link where someone can truly help us report them coz its hard to think I'll be spending my months with a closed source device. It's fine if they're consistent on the security patches and ota s, but thats not been the case. I'd be willing to take a 3rd of my money back as a refund FAK I WILL NOT BUY ANY BLACKSHARK PHONE AGAIN EVER.
The question here is whether there is a person named Jason.
I also contacted Global Support twice, and Jason took care of it all.
Only distrust remains.
Took it to Xiaomi's github aswell, let's see if we can get an answer.
Blackshark 2/3/3s/3pro Kernel source · Issue #2191 · MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource
Will the kernel source for the Xiaomi Blackshark 3 be released soon? I did some research about promises from Blackshark/Xiaomi and i'm really worried! Sources for Blackshark 2 were promised but NEV...
github.com
Yes really good
Kernel! Kernel! Kernel! Custom Roms! Ahhhhhh! Kill me pls
I'm not sure but back on those days of Android 2.3.4, I used to successfully crossed ports official OEM firmwares from other devices with similar CPU/GPU. All that it need back then was a custom recovery of the port's recipient and a backup of the firmware we trying to port. I stopped playing around with my phones these passed few years, so I'm wondering if we could do that as well to the recent Android versions? I believed we have similar SOC/Android versions phones that's currently active in development. We already got custom recovery anyways.
