Received a system update of 139MB today. Says it was for bug fixes and system stability. Now at PB2-690Y-161202. Still showing android security patch level August 1, 2016.
Update
Seems to have stopped my screen from flashing when receiving notifications. Haven't noticed much else yet.
Last update here is: PB2-690M_S200032_161202
Update
Got another OTA update today bumping my build up to
PB2-690Y_S200032_161214. Anyone have an idea what the idea is behind these two updates. I feel like another thing improved on from the first update was the visibility of the notifications. I'm noticing I don't have as hard a time reading them on the pull down shade.
Google + installs with the latest update.
Fixed Google+ issue and included December security update, that's all I've noticed so far.
YouTube audio video sync issue not fixed.
Google Photos, since the Dec. 9 update, was crashing a couple of times an hour until I disabled it. Looks like this Dec. 24 update fixed that bug.
Also, looks like a new Tango app's been bundled in--Amazon Product Preview. Wanna see how that new flat screen would look on your mantel? Amazon's app will put it up there or anywhere else you want!

So I've got a really odd issue. Background: My Pixel suffers from the random freezes that plague this forum.
I saw a notification for the May security update OTA, clicked install and then my phone froze.
I held Power+Volume Down which is the only way out of the freeze.
Since then there has been no OTA showing and I wondered why so I checked settings, it thinks it's installed (Security patch level 5 May 2017, Build: N2G470) but it didn't do any of the updates or reboots or anything.
Is it possible that it somehow updated that quickly? The phone is working
new update available. says "security , new device features " , its the android june security patch and possibly a new feature
If your using the no root hotspot it still works through update!!
It installs weird too after rebooting it restarts then the screen will black out and say "installing applications"
then it will say software is custom until the update notification at the top stops. even though it already popped up a toast that said successfully upgraded yet that still has to fill up (in the notification) then it all goes to normal seems smoother than ever
I am applying it right now, will follow up if I run across any issues.

Thanks. So there is more than just security patch in it at that size.
All I know is the last update(not this one) broke my phone, My system app crashed randomly, vibration would continue to vibrate after calls were answered, very slow response and frequent random resets. Notifications would either not appear or not disappear. One time I lost all my home screen apps. The problems were so severe I decided to upgrade to the S8.
After this update my phone runs like new.... too bad I already decided to buy the new S8.... although my 'excuse' for needing it apparently has been fixed by this update, Now I just want the S8.

yeah mines running smooth as butter. Just a note if you have that problem again (vibration etc) go into Stock recovery and clear cache it fixes it
Hi, I noticed a weird thing recently. Some app updates in Google Play show to be days/weeks old although I keep on checking for updates almost every day. You can see what I mean from the attached screenshot. I am currently on P DP1 but I noticed this on Oreo as well. Anyone else facing similar issue? Any solution?

Mines the same way. However, I've kind of come to the conclusion that the update time you see there is the last time you updated the app, not the day the update was released. If you look at your recently updated apps you'll see the update time there coincides with the last time you updated it. If it was minutes ago, it shows that. My guess is that's the update time you see when there is an update available too. Try updating them but keep track of the date and time when you did it. The next time there is an update available for them, check the time and date you recorded and see if it coincides with the updated thing you see when there's one available.
I switched from a OP6T after A10 update thinking A10 would have been stable on OP7 considering it launched a while back and may have ironed out the issues but I'm getting bugged about some issues that have lingered on forever..
1. Google Maps / GPS in general would get stuck on the previous location so you'll need to kill Google Maps a couple times before it picks up your current location.
2. Every now and then you can't attach images on Whatsapp. Only way to fix that is to restart the device or kill Whatsapp a few times and it might work if you're lucky.
3. Using gesture navigation with 3rd party launchers still flickers with a black screen before seeing home screen. I understand this is a Google issue but still it is an issue.
4. Company that was super aggressive with their updates has diluted their phone portfolio so bad that they just can't cope up with timely & stable updates. Stable update rollback have been record high for them in the last few months!
5. Multitasking is a joke on OP throwing out phones with 8GB/12GB with capability of holding apps in memory worst than a 4GB phone.
I've been a pretty loyal OP customer since OP3 and this is my 6th OP devices, but I'm on the verge of changing brands because of what once used to be their strength is now their weakness.
Hope things turn around soon for them, and us users!
1. Never experienced that.
2. Never used whatsapp.
3. Didn't know that.
4. Didn't know this either.
5. Or this.
I'm also facing the Whatsapp issue which is pretty annoying as I have to restart everytime when I have send any image
I haven't experienced the Whatsapp issue as yet on 10.0.4, but that's after flashing the latest 10.0.4 and resetting all the permissions.
Also, resetting the permissions seem to have fixed my issues with GPS too.
At this point, I'm glad no major complain anymore.
Issue after update to 10.0.4, notification icon on top left appears only a couple of minutes after the message (noticed with whatsapp). It sounds when the message arrives and the preview can be seen on the slide but no icon. OP7 stock no root. Anyone else?
Other issue since 10.0, if I set more than one alarm in the same day (one every morning and a second only for the evening) a second alarm icon appears on notification bar on the left
Looks like the June Security Patch is out for this phone
Just starting a thread for people to chat about things they've noticed in the new update:
- It looks like there's a little icon in the status bar now for when high performance mode is on.
- You can now just swipe away the High Performance Mode notification, no need to do the steps.
Also my Nova launcher was bugging out after the update, but deleting it and reinstalling it made it function properly again
