In the wake of the exclusivity agreement with Micromax, Cyanogen Inc had announced last week, that they would be providing updates for global OnePlus One phones.
If you had read our post regarding the same, you would be aware that I had questioned whether the term “Global devices” and if the OnePlus One sold in India would get the updates.
Well, the answer is no. Cyanogen has announced that it will not be updating the OnePlus devices sold in India. So, the only devices which would be getting the updates are those imported from outside the Country.
Here is what the announcement from the company reads:
If a user in India purchased a OnePlus One global device in channels outside of India, they will receive our OTA firmware updates. However, this excludes OnePlus One regional devices sold directly in India. We are committed to our exclusive partnership in India with Micromax, which will be launching its first Cyanogen OS device under their new YU brand.
However there is a bit of news that may cheer the Indian users, we can now look forward to OnePlus pushing out an update which should bring their own OS to the OnePlus One.
