Huawei Nexus 6P will get Oreo on September 11, according to Rogers

Android Oreo 8.0 has already hit the Google Pixel and Google Pixel XL. There is still question as to when Nexus devices will start to see the major Android update. After all, the last generation of Nexus devices (Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P) are on the top of Google’s priority for Oreo.


Canadian carrier Rogers has its firmware schedule up and it shows that the Nexus 6P is expected to receive Android 8.0 Oreo on September 11.

Keep in mind that it’s entirely possible the schedule is inaccurate. It’s entirely possible that we can see the 6P get Oreo before, or, or after the expected date. If you do find the OTA notification before the eleventh on the Nexus 6P, be sure to leave us a tip!

Google removed apps that offered services like ringtones and storage managers after security researchers uncovered the “WireX” botnet was behind the ploy. Malware was hidden inside the affected apps, and as long as the device remained switched on it was used in DDoS attacks. Researchers at cloud services provider Akamai discovered WireX after a hospitality company suffered from a DDoS attack involving hundreds of thousands of IP addresses. DDoS attacks work by overwhelming a target with large amounts of data from multiple IP addresses, and they’re effective at taking down websites and services that can’t cope with a data influx. Google said in a statement it’s currently in the process of removing the malicious apps from affected devices, an...

HTC’s glory days are well in the past, but the Taiwanese company is trying to stay relevant in the smartphone world. As spotted by a vigilant Twitter user, the Desire 20 Pro has been certified at NCC and Google Play Support. Previously the same phone appeared on Geekbench and in leaked schematics . The Google Play Support page mentions the same HTC 2Q9J1000 model number we saw earlier. Seeing how this is a Pro there is likely to be a vanilla version in the pipeline as well, but we haven't heard anything about it. HTC Desire 20 Pro certifications When the phones eventually arrive, they will be a follow-up of the Desire 19 lineup that brought us the Desire 19s and Desire 19+ . Both of them had unimpressive Helio chipsets (respectively P22 and P35) and the main camera was 13 MP f/1.9 with PDAF on both of them. Hopefully, this year’s Desire lineup will get in line with the current trends and introduce big batteries, fast charging, and better cameras if HTC w...
