Android 12 to beta or not to beta ???

[Roystoys]

What is going on with the beta program,I am still registered for the beta program but tonight I got a fota with what I assume is the stable version of A12 .
The strange thing is the build number is different from the one put out in the media release or on the official download site , what's up with that??

you should be able to see something like "Zenfone 7 A12 Beta" section under Phone community, it used to be that way with A11 beta and I'd swear that I've seen such info in the A12 beta application...

Ok I'll have a look around for it , strange though I still haven't gotten an email nor has another beta tester I messaged yesterday. If I hadn't checked for a security patch update I wouldn't have known I'd been accepted
PS no nothing there except more crickets 😉 strange, so far I can't find one bug so maybe they are actually getting used ready to push out a stable version. The best thing, for me at least,is the new battery saving options I am getting much better time per charge now and at least an extra hour of sot maybe I little more but I will have to keep experimenting

hmm, it would be very strange then as they asked people to join BETA program 🙂
good for you you received the update, I still haven't received the latest official one from 2/22...I know I can DL it and install "manualy" but I don't get it why even when I check for updates, my phone says I have the latest one (not true)
what's even more funny is the latest update's changelog claiming enhanced privacy protection but not updating Android security patch (I feel that privacy and security are kind of similar things)

Thanks for that it looks like the machinery has caught up as the feedback forum is up and running now. Still so far I can't complain,or report any bugs as it seems pretty solid. I am not a gamer though so I am not really using this phone for all the stuff it can do but I'm sure something will come up . Here's hoping nothing does pop up
