Is there an Android 8.0 Oreo update for Nextbit Robin?

to Japanese

It is the information I found in the Slad thread,
Android 8.0 Oreo (Android O) seems to have the minimum requirements for the Linux kernel version.

Currently my main model is directly used by importing smart phones developed by US startups not known in Japan called Nextbit Robin.

Although it is a common end result at startup, the nextbit company was acquired by a gaming company named Razer, so the possibility of upgrading to Android Oreo is nearly zero.

Nonetheless, because it is a product of a US company originating from Android, perhaps it can be upgraded to Android Oreo?

By saying that,
I examined the possibility that Nextbit Robin will update to Android 8.0.

Minimum kernel requirements for Android 8.0 Oreo

The minimum requirements of the Android 8.0 Oreo's kernel are as follows.

I quote the corresponding part from the release of Android Open Source Project.

Kernel version requirements:

• All SoCs productized in 2017 must launch with kernel 4.4 or newer.
• All other SoCs launching new Android devices running Android 8.0 must use kernel 3.18 or newer.
• Regardless of launch date, all SoCs with device launches on Android 8.0 remain subject to kernel changes required to enable Treble. 
• Older Android devices released prior to Android 8.0 but that will be upgraded to Android 8.0 can continue to use their original base kernel version if desired.

Trends of Razer that acquired Nextbit Systems

The story where the minimum requirement of the Linux kernel version is set is the limit imposed on the Android terminal manufacturer, so it does not matter to usual consumers, but it is important information for Custom Rommania.

Especially since Robin was in a posture to continue terminal guarantee even after introducing custom ROM, there are many who purchased Robin in order to enjoy replacing custom logs.

So, I'm curious whether Razer who bought my current main suicide nextbit Robin will release the factory image of Android 8.0.


at present,
Razer's Robin related bulletin board does not have any signs of it.


Robin ended support on August 1, 2017, but the software update is supposed to be done until February 2018.

If so, I think that the probability that the factory image of Android 8.0 will be released is not zero.

Nextbit Robin's kernel version

I checked the version of my Robin kernel that updated to Android 7.1.1.

Robin

& gt; adb shell
ether: /$ cat /proc /version

Linux version 3.10.84-perf-g9f97649 (jenkins @ spot03) (gcc version 4.9 20150123 (
prerelease) (GCC)) # 1 SMP PREEMPT Wed May 10 16: 53: 29 UTC 2017

Since Android 8.0 Oreo requires Linux version 3.18 or later, my Robin was found not to satisfy the specification because it is Linux version 3.10.84.

Sorry!

However, as Android devices released before Android 8.0 release can seem to be able to upgrade to Android 8.0 with the installed kernel version, my Robin seems to be OK.

However, when upgrading to Android 8.0 with the old kernel remaining, some functions may be restricted.

Since kernel is the most important software of Android OS, it seems difficult to upgrade?

Afterword

Even so, I did not think Robin, which was purchased for less than a year, will be treated as an old Android device. Is not Android device assuming to use for a long time?

I would like to experience Android 8.0, so please give me Razer Factory Image.

waiting.
