Android 8.0 Oreo is now rolling out to the LG V30 in Korea

In its home country, LG started the public beta test of the Android 8.0 Oreo for the V30 a month ago. Now, it looks like the final build is ready for primetime, as LG just announced. For those in South Korea that haven’t gotten the update yet, LG says you can download LG Bridge from the company’s site and sideload the update from there. As for when the update is coming to other countries, there isn’t an official announcement when that is happening just yet. There isn’t any official word also if Project Treble also didn’t make the cut just like with the public beta version.

Android Oreo update for Samsung Galaxy Note8 Verizon version leaks online

For Galaxy Note8 users, the wait for the Android Oreo might not be that long. A leaked version of the Android Oreo over-the-air update for the Samsung flagship phablet shows up online, but it’s specifically for the Verizon version in the US (SM-M950U). It does suggest, though, that we might expect the official update to come out soon. It can’t be said what version of the update this is but according to GSMArena it doesn’t seem like the final build. It does run on Android 8.0.0 along with Samsung Experience 9.0. It’s supposedly working fine for some Reddit users but it, of course, comes with the usual word of caution when it comes to flashing a build found online and installed on your phone.

HTC U11 to get Android 8.0 Oreo update starting November 27

We reported last month that HTC was reportedly releasing the Android 8.0 Oreo update for the HTC U11 between the end of November and early December. And it looks like HTC is fulfilling this wish. HTC’s Mo Versi just announced on Twitter that the Oreo operating system update is coming to the unlocked versions of the HTC U11 starting today, November 27. So if you own an unlocked version of the device, keep your eye out for that. The other HTC devices expected to get Android 8.0 update include the U Ultra and HTC 10. No word yet when those two devices are getting the update, though.
