took ap8 update and phone is now weird - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di

Are these stats correct? It says I still have the February1st security patch but it had already said that this new update(ap8) would patch security so wouldn't the patch date be different?

Could be that you are 2 updates behind

PD7 is today's update.

I took the first update since I got this phone. Shouldn't the rest of the info displayed here reflect that or is this all it changed?

Check the update again. It should show PD7.

Google beta program.

Enrolled in the google beta program but I'm not getting the ota for my pixel 2. It's been 72 hours. I got the ota for my pixel c within minutes. Anyone know how to force the ota or something?
It appears that people on the November security patch for 8.0 are not getting the 8.1 beta OTA pushed to them. Most likely need to wait for DP2 at this point.
Hopefully the preview 2 comes out soon.
I just signed up a few minutes ago, refreshed the system update screen on my pixel 2, and the update popped right up

Did the novembver security patch require any weirdness to get? I only ask because while i'm not sure if I had that installed, I do know for sure I had all of the most current OTA updates. I got the phone from Best Buy last Thursday and there was a software update when I first booted it. I check for new software this morning and it told me I was up to date. I then proceeded to sign up for the beta program, refreshed the update page that said I was up to date, and the 8.1 update was waiting for me

Some people didn't get November update and i read somewhere that they pulled the 8.1 preview for pixel 2 , that's why I'm asking.

If it makes you feel any better I am in the same situation. 4 days no OTA. I am on the November Security patch.
Is it worth it to try flashing factory images to get back to September and then try to get the beta OTA?
I can confirm rolling back to September images does allow you to immediately get the prompt to download the 8.1 beta.
If you are impatient like me, it's worth a shot.
I will add this: Make sure your ADB and Fastboot are up to date! I ended up softbricked/stuck in the bootloader for awhile after flashing back to the September images. I finally figured out my old version fastboot was the problem. After getting the latest fastboot/adb it was a breeze.

Is 5.1.6 update pulled-up from server due to some issue?

Many users including me got the system update notification. I didn't updated it then. Now the notification is not there any more and system update says you're phone is up to date with 5.1.5.
Is it true that 5.1.6 is not available anymore?

Hmmmm... I am on 5.1.6. maybe there is an update to 5.1.7. with June '18 security patch incomming?
To be honest, I am very satisfied with 5.1.6.
They're going to push an update with the bootloader bypass fix included.
yeah i hope this does not cause issues, for us that have twrp and rooted, get ur backups ready, we may have to format data

Same here I didn`t make the update and update notification has gone
Chat showing the reason for the pulled update.
Looks like there was a "freeze issue," and a hotfix will be rolling out shortly.
Had it a few days now, no issues here.
Afraid to jinx myself but I have no issues on 5.1.6 rooted with TWRP installed since Saturday.
oos.5.1.6, have no issue so far, root, twrp, exposed, custom kernel.
I have no issues at all.
But some people on OP forums are going nuts about it. But to be fair, I have seen at least hundreds of different bugs that I don't have. Have no idea what those guys are doing with their phones.
Actually I have only noticed one small problem, the keyboard remains under the notification shade when trying to respond to an SMS. That's it. No big deal.

On August 5 patch level, shows up to date

Hi
I have standard Pixel 2 with Magisk installed (for thethering restrictions bypass). I finally got around to getting OTA from July to August one. So got Android 9. I followed the OTA update guide for Magisk. Everything got installed, but now it keeps saying my phone is up to date. Even thought it's still on August Security patch. Anyone else experienced this?
I can just download rest of the patches manually and side load, but I rather avoid doing it.
Thanks
Were you on the beta update program for P. If so have you opted out? I had to opt out before I got this month's update. Didn't realise you had to do this.

Nope. Just getting everything through OTA.
Yeah the same thing happened to me

The same with me. And I had to put back a backup, because I got a problem with Magisk. So I will not install this December update.
(I rather would like to see some form of Lineage on our phone, to get rid of all kinds of apps I do not want to install on my phone.)

Hi, I thought you were right. But actually there *is* a new 1 feb update that I already put on my phone. The phone will not recceive it ota, but you can install it using ODIN. Sammobile.com is a good source. I downloaded the Dutch version from there (I had another good source to check for the correct file) Sammobile is horrifyingly slow though.... You will need a couple of hours to download. And in fact it took me several hours too to get my phone back in order.
My A7 stuck on Samsung logo screen after updating to Android 9 Pie, any fix ?

Question issues with updates

Hi, i have a Pixel 7 pro (no carrier, eu, stock, locked bootloader) and am experiencing the following:
until yesterday i was running:
security update: november
play system update: october
os: october
i tried with the pixel repair tool to no avail. so, yesterday i applied for the beta... installed, rebooted (many times) and... still stuck with the stable from october. i then downloaded the official ota and applied it... now i have
security update: december
play system update: october
os: december
now, why the play system won't update? also, the privacy and security settings are still separated... for what is worth, the free VPN has already been active for a few days.
is my OS broken? should i try with sideloading the update again? i'm not in the mood for a reset and i have many apps (banking too) which would be a hassle to config again.

Android Pixel updates get rolled out in phases, meaning it's not available for everyone at the same time. Maybe you need to wait an hour, maybe a day, maybe a week.
If you feel the need to immediately update at the earliest time possible, you should look into ADB flashing.

I updated to december and also have not gotten that "feature", it's likely that it's a google sided switch/ App update that is necessary to change that, meaning it's not at all necessary to update the firmware of the phone factually, but Google still wants the "feature drop" as a sales argument, hence the big focus on the firmware updates, even though the actual features could easily be delivered as in-app updates.
yeah... i read somewhere else that that "feature" and others will be available with an upcoming update within this month... lol

I think that's part of the PermissionController APK, which is part of the PermissionController Mainline module. So I think Google needs to update that Mainline module before we get it.
However, you should be able to toggle the flag on with this adb command...
adb shell cmd device_config put privacy safety_center_is_enabled true
