Pie is the last one major update.... Because Moto assicure only 2 major update.. But we will receive for sure minor update, like security patch.. Also I am waiting the last one update ; after that I will root and test all the other rom... But for now I don't feel the necessity of root.

I agree, however I think there MAY be an update to Android Q as there was a variant of the Moto X4 (6/64) that was released with Android Oreo - 2 major updates would bring it to Android Q.
Edit: it was the 6/64 version that was released with Oreo, not the 4/64 that I originally stated. I have the 3/32 version.

Looks like Oreo update is rolling out in India.

I have confirmed this from the support. They say it is true.
Can you send screenshot please?
Is it gonna be 64bit or 32bit ?

You confirm it when people get oreo on their phone, not when lenovo say oreo is coming. Oreo has been coming for a year now.
You'll notice there's no source for that article.

Instead of Oreo update i just got security update of 1st June
I got the June security patch today.. Still no oreo..
They don't want to mess up with bugs, they are testing Oreo via soak testers and it would take at least one month to release Oreo final build for all users. So, jus wait for few days u will definitely get it.
Funny "just wait you will get it" , some people arent even getting the June security update, im not so sure how motorola sends out updates. If they are relying on carriers, then we likely wont get anything , this is why i usually forego the ota nonsense and just root/custon recovery/ custom rom , and never look back , i dont have the time to do that now

That's my last option. Will simply unlock the bootloader. Install TWRP, root and than install tonnes of custom roms simultaneously. Can't wait to install Viper4Android and Lucky patcher. The same what I did with my previous Moto E & Moto E2(otus) and now a g5s plus user.
I am not very eager to stick with Stock rom. But there are many roms out there filled with too many bugs, which made me to stick with the Stock.
I always unlock the BL first if i can , you can always get OTA after that unless you do custom recovery , or root ! I usually dont wait for OTA, because carriers usually scrap the idea of updates until theyve sold a few million of the fones first , by that time , the fone is old and then they feel theres no need to upgrade anyway because there Hawking a new better fone !
I've found another article on Oreo for Moto G5

Android Oreo isn't available for Moto G5s Plus.
They pulled the release notes down a few hours after they put them up. No one in any region, except maybe some Lenovorola employees under heavy nda's has android oreo on a phone. Even then, it's more likely that it's being run on a virtual machine emulating the g5s plus. We may see it later this month, but it's probably going to be closer to the end of July, early August if at all.
I got a fresh news about moto g5s plus oreo update.
its coming soon with android 8.0 not 8.1 because i chat with Moto today some countries was strted getting oreo update. And it is going to start in india soon.?
Okay. So provide proof of what you say. Otherwise it's just more noise.

No it is not recommended unless you're a registered user of MFN. It might be possible you'll not get official final update as you previously side loaded the Soak Test which was not intended for you.

As I wrote in a reply to your other post, you probably will only get updates if you're actually selected for this soak test. It's not enough to just be part of the MFN, you should have received a survey and a link to the test forums if you were formally selected. Also, you should be getting this update direct from Motorola if you are selected.
If you are not part of this soak test, you may receive no updates unless Motorola releases the OPS28.49-2 update as the official update to Oreo.
I think oreo 8.1 is only for mfn user and all people will going to get a security patch of june not Oreo 8.1. I am saying this because of this video. Link is here
Few seconds ego i got my phone update. It's just june security patch not the oreo.it is just 78 mb update.

It's wherever it is. You people are doing a lot of crying in a bunch of threads. Nothing one can do but wait.
Or buy a G6 and complain down the line, "Where is P ????"

It's kind of weird because if you see Xiaomi was part of Android P beta program, so was OnePlus and Nokia, both of them have rolled out the Pie update, but Xiaomi is still testing the beta builds. 22 August was when they started beta program and still it continues.

Which Android one devices got the final pie update? None to my knowledge. Also beta program doesn't necessarily mean pie. There have been some beta Oreo versions already.

September update was released at the end of September (about 20th), and the PIE is rumored to be released in December for our phones.
Patience !

There is no rumour. It's just that Q4 ends in December so this is the latest date where the "promised" date ends. So all we can do is wait and see but let's not make people false hopes about dates. It will come when it's ready or in Xiaomis case, when they want to beta test on their users
But still would be nice to know if beta testers are already testing something with a 9 in front. So come here my whistleblowers
Also companies like tradingshenzen are not shipping from china until today, so don't expect any update soon. Golden week holidays lasted until last Sunday.

you would want to look at this post. Nokia 7 plus being under Andriod One program received Pie update, a couple of weeks ago.
https://www.xda-developers.com/nokia-7-plus-android-pie-update/
And ever since the A2 has launched there has not been any beta build of Oreo, so guess, that makes it Pie beta program, doesn't it?

I bought Android One phone to receive Updates on time. But now I will wait months to get updates. So I think Android One Project form Google has failed and I'm sorry for them.

Last one I got was April 1, 2019 on my XT1900-1
The latest update for the is the May 1 security update.
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/payton/official/
Using it on my Android 1 Edition and it's running very well. The March 1 update had a weird bug where the ZRAM would constantly crash slowing the phone to a crawl, no such issues on the latest update rooted with Magisk.

Hi! Is it possible to convert the reteu model (xt1900-7) to an Android 1 edition?
Thanks
I'm have the Android one edition and I just received the July security patch, if that's the updates your see referring too.
On Android One - Fi's channel (but, current sim is on T-Mobile USA) - got a system update 3 days ago and again another (2nd. one) update last night. Here are the screenshots - check & compare yours
PPW* included some system upgrade, where as the other one was a smaller Android security patch.

This could work. For a while I had run my XT1900-7 (RETEU) with XT1900-1 (RETAIL) ROMs. Everything worked except for Google Pay.

Yes, it is possible, but OTA's will not work. Only fastboot flash full ROM every month will work (if full ROM will be available for download...)
I am getting mental with the Moto X4 xt1900-7 Reteu. What about the updates? I got this phone from Amazon Spain, but I am currentlyin Germany, the phone came with the basic 7.1.1 firmware, and got authomatically updated to 8.0.0, OPW27.2, Security Patch Level: 1 December 2017. I bought this because of the small size, and his compatibility with Lineageos, but I need the Android 9.0 Pie before installing Lineageos (this is stated in Lineagerom webpage). The update never come ...... System Update says "Your Device is Up To Date".... Frustating!!! Do you know if there is a version of Lineageos that I can install fromOreo 8.0? or can I download Android Pie for my Moto somewhere? Sorry, getting totally mental Can anybody help me please?

Solved!!! Maybe someone would be interessed about this, just posting my experience
Lineageos installation instructions say the following: Warning: Before following these instructions please ensure that the device is currently using Android 9 firmware.
My Moto X4 XT1900-7 Reteu didn´t get the Android 9 update (still no idea why), it took me 3 days looking for a way to install the update manually with no success. Then I decided to try install lineage-19.1-20221123-nightly-payton-signed.zip anyway and it worked
The process was totally smooth and extremely fast, everything seems to be working perfectly, but I would like you to know that I didn´t install any Gapps, so I can´t confirm if this could create any problem.
Thank you to XDA and all the contributors, this is a fantastic source of info
