New LTE-A update

I saw on the T-Mobile website that this week we will be getting the August and September Security updates plus LTE-A support to get is 194mbps downloads and uploads with a maximum of 400mbps on the network possible. SO we will be getting an update with faster network speeds. Also there will also be a new gallery app and also the cloud support thing. I do think that they patched the root from what I have been hearing. I do also know that we are getting the update by the end of this week. YAH.

Link?
Article I saw said "later this month"... (Which technically fits with your end of the week timeline ?)

Here you go. Sorry new to forumish stuff.

Whelp. This explains the lack of security updates as of late from T-Mobile/Samsung. The big magenta is cooking some extra spice into the goods! I can forgive them, now knowing this!

OK, that's the same article I read ... it says "Customers with the Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge will be able to use this new technology with a software update later this month".
Hoping you're right and it happens this week as sooner is always better But at least knowing something is coming shortly is awesome IMO!

I just got a notification saying that there was a security update but I'm on echoe rom and wasn't able to try and update

I tried via my phone and via SamFirm and no update yet.

So we're getting 2 software updates one this month and another next month. The article also says "Customers with the Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge will be able to use this new technology with a software update in October, with more phones on the way." For the 256 QAM and 64 QAM.

I'd the update don't hit your area why even bother. Denver needs it more than any other state why? Well in you live here you would have noticed the influx of people ever since 2012 when weed was made legal. Such ****ty speeds I had to remove my unlimited option because I was never getting more than 4gb at a time thanks to the horrible signal

Too bad T-Mobile isn't bringing 4x4 to the entire state of Connecticut, because **** us I guess.
Just push the damn security update. I can't wait until the U firmware goes to v3 so I can be free of this carrier firmware.

Havent got nothing yet....

dude, I hope Connecticut also gets it. I lived there for 12 years. Also all California should get it also.

CT often gets hung up on tower mods. They have to be approved through the state government to meet tourism and environmental standards.

I wouldn't hold my breath just yet for an update. We still have many days before end of month.

We're nearly at the end of the month and no updates reported from anybody?

In order to get the higher speeds, would only the modem need to be updated? If so, rooted phone users could just flash the modem and not need to be impacted by the "security" updates.

Love how these sites don't put a date on their "news" stories.
They say "discovered only a week ago". Actually it was discovered last June. Google released a security update to fix it on Nov 8th.

Hopefully Samsung will get a security update to us soon that patches this.

Personal opinion: this is a serious flaw. Anyone would have to be crazy or not care about the results.

Received the November 2016 Security Update today. Fixes Dirty Cow among other things.

Galaxy S8 G950U1 AQI1 September Update

Hey Guys.
Heard the news that samsung stated rolling out AQI1 update. I still don't see the OTA on my Galaxy s8 unlocked model. Did anyone from USA got the update ?

No, its not rolling out for the unlocked model yet.

Today was out

Nothing yet

Canada got aqi3 but its still labelled as august security patch.

Nothing yet on my unlocked G950U1.
Not on SamMobile firmware list yet either.

Anyone get this yet?

Nothing yet. I'm still in the Aug security patch. No bluebourne fix yet.

Over the past few months, the update would come at th end of the month. So the June, July, and Aug patch was out the end of the month, but now here it is the 2nd week of October and no Sept update.

They next build you will be getting, if you are getting one for September is this. G950U1UEU1AQI1/G950U1OYM1AQI1/G950U1UEU1AQI1. The one currently being tested, which I think is an Oreo beta is, G950U1UEU1ZQIB/G950U1OYM1ZQIB/G950U1UEU1ZQIB. That Z before the QIB means beta.

Ever since the first blog posted the beta build number everyone's been all When do you think beta will be?! Beta, beta, beta...
After the disaster that was the Nougat beta with the idiots and dumb **** they'd post, not contributing anything I'd be real surprised if Samsung does that again

Dude, I remember the nougat beta with that dude posting child pornography. But they are going to have a beta. The US will probably get 7.1.1. And also, the beta will be late October to early November. And people are excited for it so they ask about it. Also from the looks of it, the G950U1 will also be in the beta. No promises.
Btw the dates were told to me by a friend at samsung.

C782 No updates since 9.0

Anyone else on C782 noticed since we got 9.0 (168) we haven't had anymore updates/security patches in a while, anyone know whats up with that? i feel like our phones have just been abandoned this is first and last time i use Huawei, Google Pixel or Samsung next upgrade for me at least they get monthly patches/fixes even my bros S8 is being security/bug patched each month.

I've noticed it too.
Still on .168

Still on .159 with November security

Get yourself on Huawei forums, under software there's a very large post, join the crowd pressuring them to change their process. Mods have put up "false" updates to try quieten the roar and just made it worse. Infuriating that FF can't work once you're already on pie, don't fancy downgrading and full wipe just for my security patch

They said themselves bi monthly updates for all p m and nova handsets, clearly trying not to get banned from anywhere else and bit off more than they can chew. Any time I've spoken to someone, being able to speak to anyone more senior than first point of contact is impossible (which from experience I'm pretty sure goes against certain rules re: complaints) contemplating a ceo office email with links to all these such posts and their own promises.
Not that it'll make a difference. Just need to vent haha

Who's your provider?

Three UK

I'm with Three. Still on 159, November security patch. Just been on a live chat with them. Nothing resolved but got a £25 credit.

Still on .168 for me as well, showing 1st December security patch.
Last time I buy Huawei as well, I don't mind not getting full updates but not even getting security updates is ridiculous.

Yeah i just wish they would push them out monthly like samsung does instead of making us wait 3-5 months and by that time the update is worthless.

Bi-monthly would do me fine. In a dream world I'd like 9.1 and camera processing parameters from the P30 Pro (I've read it's a little less heavy on the processing) but I doubt we'll ever see that!

Still 1st Dec 18 security for me, unlocked phone from o2 with Voda sim.
Pathetic, it's almost 5 months out of date.
Love the phone but won't buy another Huawei.

My point being the article was written the say after I said I doubt we'll ever see 9.1.
You're right though, probably still months to wait until we see it.

Seems 3 customers are getting .204?
Nothing on O2, EE and Vodafone.............

Asia Pacific is getting monthly security updates so far. I on April security at the moment.

XT1900-1 september security patch

Just received the September security patch for Moto x4 XT 1900-1 retail version.
Thought I might share the news with the good fellas here.

same here on my XT1900-7, it is just strange that it was automatically installed, without my confirmation

Thought it's October now... Isn't that a month late???

Yeah, you are absolutely right! But unfortunately, that's Motorola's way of delivering update. And I'm not even hopeful to get an Android 10 update.

Late is better than never, which is the case for the vast majority of phones many of which are newer than the X4.

Does anyone know if the FI/AndroidOne version for sept. has be released? Can't find in my usual locations.

Noticed on the Lolinet site that the RETUS releases has "PPWS29.69-40-3-1" uploaded on 10/3. Seems like a newer build just going by the naming scheme?

Just got another OTA, for October 1
PPWS29.69-39-6-1

I got the update today as well, which came as a surprise. I was wondering the same thing regarding some urgent fix.
Maybe they are trying to appease the masses over not getting Android 10 by providing faster security updates. I feel like they wiggled out of providing the upgrade. Technically speaking from a calendar standpoint, the Android 10 release was within the 2 year OS upgrade path when looking at the release date of the phone. Rant over. Time to look towards custom ROMs.

i just got november, PPWS29.69-36-2. support.motorola.com/us/en/solution/MS145560
