So I moved here in October and have been patiently waiting for 5.0 since my arrival to South Korea. November 12th came and went and I didn't have an update message. I have tried checking twice a day since, but no OTA. My question is this. Is South Korea not getting the update the same way as the USA? My devices are both purchased in America (Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 2013). Will I have to sideload the update?

I am a US Soldier stationed in South Korea.
The OTA has nothing to do where you are. Even of you would be in America nothing would change. You can just wait for the OTA for now

It's not just you, mate. The rollout has stopped. Reason: unknown.

Thank you for your responses. Good to know. I guess I will just wait and see what happens. If worse comes to worse I may just sideload it.

Nothing in the UAE either. The service center that has my phone claims to have 'updated' it. Will let you know if they really did so on Saturday.

Dont have my phone with me so cant check. Will let you know tomorrow.
EDIT - Never mind, I'm clearly having a massive brain blockage at the moment. Doubt my phone is the US variant, most probably the European variant. Will check anyways and let you know. Apologies for the confusion.

That's fine I'm not asking about the US variant. In the title I state C636 which is Asia if I recall correctly.
Using C636 in Singapore.
Got the update a week ago.
Some people here also did not receive it yet.
So I guess, they are rolling in batches.
It took around 1 week for me to get them from the time I've read about someone getting the B172 update.
I've noticed a slight battery improvement from B158. Music controls from spotify now works on the locksreen.

Mine is not the C636. Its the C185.
Service center returned the unit, wiped clean with a B158 build. So much ado about nothing there.
AUS still stuck at 158

Received it on the day of the announcement here in Malaysia which is really surprising given that there normally is a lag in receiving updates here.
Tried with firmware finder tonight
Downloaded full update.... But got an "unauthorized update" error when trying to install
So the wait continues

Is Oreo for C567 available through OTA? I have not used my Mate 9 in a while, I powered it up today thinking that Oreo is available for USA C567 variant, and the phone says I'm up to date? WTF??? I thought Huawei pushed the update already ...
The update was initially released for China. I think it might be hitting Europe at the moment? I'm guessing that the USA probably won't get it until after the holidays. I hope I'm wrong and it comes sooner, but the safe bet is too assume it won't arrive until January.
I've had 3 mate phones. On the 2, the update came the LAST day of the quarter (was told first quarter of xx year)
On the mate 8, was told the 1st quarter of the year...came 2 weeks into the 2nd quarter.
My guess, I remember them saying "in December", so I'd look for it between now, and the middle of January.
I know the whole area takes a holiday in October sometime..
Update is on hicloud anyway. They just need to approve everyone...
Though, latest for C567 is MHA-L29 8.0.0.321(C567), which is still beta. Official should be B36x.
I love Huawei - but I bought a OnePlus 5T and I don't think I'm coming back to Huawei.
It's too long. Like I'm invisible. Couldn't care less now.

Where do you live?
Example: American users, which are living in USA and bought model for USA market (region C567 ) and use american carriers, got and getting OTA. In February USA region received massive update to Oreo.
But... If american user bought phone in China and using it at home, he/she seriously decrease chances to get update.
I also had issues with ota having a c185 in Europe. It was possible to get major updates by using the 'download latest full package' tab in the updated on the phone. Incremental were more difficult so in the end I changed the phones region to c432.

Unlocked Samsung fold 2, and we are still stuck on August's security update? Should I have received an update by now? View attachment 5117485

Supposedly we unlocked folks are last in line for updates after the carrier locked ones.
This is my first time with a Samsung device and this is weird to me since Samsung advertises the Fold2 as a monthly updated device.
Whats weird is the don't even pump something out for the unsupported eSIM, it's crap it isn't functional at this point. Should have been an early patch addressing it world wide as it's already fixed in some markets.

This does seem odd to me that Samsung hasn't even given us September let alone October firmware/Security Patches.
I wonder if this issue happened with the OG Fold? Like Samsung Tablets, maybe Samsung was thinking that they wouldn't sell that many Z Fold2's and we'd be the last to receive any updates.
Has anyone seen any sales stats on the Z Fold2 yet?
This while release gives me a bad taste in my mouth the more it sinks in. A $2000 phone with no case included, no headphones, no special anything. Nothing made this purchase special. Then, the software we are all using hasn't had an update for 2+ months.

T-Mobile Fold 2, no updates yet. : (
My original fold has the September patches. Really unacceptable to still be on August with our Z Fold 2.

Everyone on the eastern hemisphere probably has the Sept update. Meanwhile the western is sitting at Aug patch. If you look on Sammobile, Singapore was the last place to get Aug patch on 9/16. Then on 10/4 got the Sept patch. We got our first patch around 9/13. Maybe they're finally finished over there and can show us some love over here.
I'll be damn, they now rolling out Oct patch to some peeps that have the Sept patch lol. They may as well just give us the Oct patch now.

Same here, unlocked on ATT, US.

Unlocked from Samsung. Was on August but just received October update.
Rogers and Telus initially scheduled the 8th for FOTA release. Still no sign of update while the rest of the world seemingly is getting rolled out.

Rest of the world and Exynos getting it first then North America after. I'm in the U.S. with unlocked and haven't gotten it yet either. Guess we'll get it when we get it.
This is good, korea update fix gos trash
No update yet on Rogers canada. I think Samsung is holding on to the patch to include GOS fix in it. Its generating bad PR for the company.
Is Samsung doing a late fix on this gaming performance controversy, maybe??
