microsoft patch tuesday update

Just read on Microsoft news that were due a big update today,so just done a scan and indeed there were 13 updates ranging from flash to a hardware update but by mistake I press the update button so I didn't actually see what all the rest of the patches actually did it came in at about 120mb anyone got any info as mine currently downloading

I didn't get the "System Firmware Update - 12/11/2012" until after installing the other updates so be sure to scan for new updates a second time after rebooting.

Ok cheers, has it made any difference to your surface?

I'm able to stream DivX movies, don't think I could do that before.

I had a "System Hardware Update - 2012/12/11", and it was available in the first list of updates. No "System Firmware Update" after the first updates.

Can now have more columns on start screen.

4 columns? How do you set that up?

You can't, it's a bug.

You can just tilt your screen

Can you see if you are still able to lock screen rotation via the brightness menu?
[UPDATE]
For some reason my screen got stuck in one direction, and the rotation lock button also disappeared. A quick reboot and she's buzzing along.

Agreed. I rebooted once and it looked like this for about a half hour

Oh, and it does appear that multitasking/switching apps works a little smoother for extended periods

You still can.

Just applied the update, not noticing any difference yet, except that IE10 asked me if I wanted to re-apply recommended safety settings, to which I said no, because I have turned off MS's flash whitelist so I can use the Napster website.

Haven't noticed any difference to tell you the truth, in fact mine seems a little slower

mine is a lot faster... placebo maybe? but i bet it is faster..

I am on a VIVO Tab RT and I noticed faster performance on my tablet as well.

I'm still unable to connect to my TV with a third-party MicroHDMI-HDMI cable, so I guess I was expecting Microsoft to correct this issue...
Can't say I notice any difference in performance either.

Unfortunately I have tried the upgrade assistant and Smart Switch from samsung themselves, and neither will detect it, it highlights the phone red (I assume when it's checking for an update) and then goes back to being white and says under status "Up to date" and my version is still OJ3...
I've tried removing the device from the list, readding it, reinstalling the program, repairing the device to reflash it in hopes of getting it, numerous things.
I'll post images of it.

Have you tried to make a backup and then do a complete factory reset? After it boots the first time try to see if you have the update available in settings.

I have tried this as well. I believe I may know a way to get it through the Upgrade Assistant but I believe I need help from someone who is already updated in order to be able to get it. Anyone up for the task by any chance?
If you go into "C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\VERIZON" you should see a BinaryDB.db file, if uploaded I may be able to use it to trick their servers into thinking my device is updated, but needing a factory reset, then in essence allowing the software to download the files needed to "factory reset" (hehe the update file I need...) my phone.
Another way to do this is go into any folder, type %AppData% and then browse to "Roaming\VERIZON"
I have literally tried everything that I can think of other than this.

LOL I hate Windows but I have it on my nix as a VMWARE so I'll log into it and see if I can get the files because I'm not near the system but I can login and get it from the phone..

Which issues were you having with battery? Because I think I am experiencing it as well. I was expecting a large boost to battery from both the Marshmallow battery features and from using WiFi calling and putting the phone in airplane mode. It doesn't seem to be any better, if anything it seems worse than it was on 5.1.1.

Many of us have seen increased battery drain with the first Verizon Marshmallow update. It's been a difficult thing to narrow down because some claim they have better battery life.

New to Samsung. Got the Note 5 a few weeks ago and immediately jumped to MM. Got the new update today and it just told me my SIM card was removed. I had to reset to get it to register.
I had pretty good battery on the original MM update. I'll know more tomorrow after a full discharge/charge cycle.

im not getting a full day worth on Marshmallow...i look like a iphone users now carrying my charger or asking if anybody has a charger

Nougat update is out. Find any differences?

I saw myself 3 mobiles getting an update today.
I've updated my phone today as soon as I received the notification.
Details about update -Android version 7.0, Build: NPJ25.93-11.
List of BIG changes that I observed:
1. Boot animation - It is completely revamped and now says "Hello Moto" with an iconic voice every time you boot up the phone. Just found out that it can be turned off in Settings>Sounds.
2. Internal memory pumped up - This is a big surprise for me. My available free memory was 7.3 GB before the update and now it is 8.22 GB. It is a very good thing.
3. Battery backup seems to be improved. This is my one day observation and still needs more observation of course.
4. A special Moto action is added called Swipe to shrink screen. (meh!)
5. Fingerprint sensor can now lock the device. Power button is safe forever. Unregistered fingers can also put phone to sleep.
6. Toggle WiFi, BT, Data etc. in one tap if you pull down notification bar once else if you pull down twice you get to choose from a list of devices.
7. Device temperature is now nominal while charging.
8. I don't see network related settings like 2G, 3G, 4G selection per SIM. It is all grayed out. I think it will choose the n/w on its own.
All other N features (split screen, notification in-line-reply, better recent apps preview, etc) are known. So there is nothing special to say about that.
Cons inherited from Marshmallow:
*** Hidden LED is still kept hidden. What a waste!
*** Although device is locked you can still swipe down notification bar and toggle all the important and sensitive controls like WiFi, Location, Bluetooth, Data, Airplane mode. This is really an insecure feature.
I'll keep updating this as I go on finding something new.
Other changes are mentioned in changelog on Moto website.
P.s: Go for the update.

How many treads about this?
This update is the same like the one already published on Dec 11 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/captured-ota-nougat-ota-moto-g4-plus-t3517059
BTW: No root for it (as of now).

I have flashed my moto g4 plus with official soak test nougat. But I didn't receive any notification for official nougat. Will I get a notification or will I have to flash it manually using official nougat update?

You should get the update according to sources. Maybe you will have to wait for a while.
Well if you don't get it you can always downgrade to 6.0 to start over.

If you have the latetst soak, don't bother, it's the same as "official" Build: NPJ25.93-11.

Tap the gear like icon under Settings/Security/Screen Lock. You must find it there.

the problem with the screenshot is that android system and android OS never were the top consuming items back in marshmallow

They were in my case but now it's much worse... sometimes can't make it till dinner time.
Together with the Bluetooth crashing this Nougat upgrade it's a total disappointment.

did u do a factory reset ?

Still not, I'm planning to do it but it's so much work...
Suddenly without any new SW update (still B341) the battery drain is much better.
It didn't came for free though: the timer is totally screwed up so alarms are missed or late, apps in background closed, whatsapp messages received only at screen unlock plus as soon I unlock and bring down the notifications the new ones randomly disappears.
I was waiting a new SW update since there are many new versions around but it looks takes much longer with the EVA-L09 Vodafone Germany version.
Thinking about using the downgrade package provided by Huawei.

The update was pulled due to a game booster issue which caused games to appear as a black screen. I'm sure they will fix it and re-release the update soon.

Damn... Is it working now? Any fix you found? My game booster isn't working like most people who updated, but at least the games are working after reseting Game booster.

I uninstalled the updates on YouTube and my WiFi started working. I then went on YouTube and updated it. All is good again. Phone appears to work much better and battery life is improved ?

Anyone have the OTA file?

Bueller? This HAS to be out there somewhere for U.S. users for RP1....??

My Camera APP crashes all the time now after the update. What Gives??? Is this purely a 9 thing or did Razer fix the Game Booster, and break the Camera APP???

Update downloads then almost instantly goes to "Installation Failed". Currently on 8.1 MR2 factory image. Phone is not rooted, firewalled, or anything and there is plenty of space left on the device. Razer support is scratching their heads for the past week.

The update is still very buggy, and lags a bunch of times....so sad, I think I am going back to my RoG Phone now that PIE has been released.

new update with november 2019 security patch.

the factory images for the december update are in the factory images site, but the links are down
