Hi Manoj,
I’m still get confused about all those names, tests and releases as it is not my cup of tea… That’s why I bought the FP3+ with eOS installed, as I don’t want to have to go through complexes’ process to make system upgrades.
/e/ R rollout
- Week 34 and 35 devices released
- Release plan for /e/ R on new and supported devices
I got the eOS OTA e-018 stable last week. When you say /e/ R rollout week 34 and 35 devices released, it means Android upgrade from Android 10 to 11 right ? If I’m correct and understand it correctly, it doesn’t work via OTA yet and this is why I’m currently on Android 10 even if my device was / seemed release for the next android ?
Will it once work via OTA ? If not, will you make it possible ? For phones where a partnership exists and where you provide the eOS installed on them, I would expect from /e/ to work on OTA for Android version upgrade as well and not only eOS versions. As marketing-wise, those phones (with eOS installed) targets non-tech people for who, and I include myself, resetting to stock ROM before upgrading to Android R is far from possible and/or something people doesn’t want to go trough.
Of course, phones with stock Android doesn’t necessarly updgrade to newer version of Android neither but knowing that poeple with tech abilites can do it for my current phone and me not, it is frustrating.
