No.
They may have leaked the phone SEVERAL times quite early.... but updates seem to be something they tend to be quite tight-lipped about. Won't know until it's available, if not shortly before.
Edit: After a little bit of Google usage, apparently there is supposedly going to be a new update released on the 13th. All that's being said so far is that there are expected to be improvements to Google Now, including new cards as well as a somewhat Siri-esque response system (offering you options on who you wish to call/text if you have more than one contact with the same name), and potentially some fixes for the camera. While the date might be accurate, the details of the update are probably more speculation and rumor than anything.
I assume they are not going to add the option to use "ok google" while the phone is locked/ screen is off, right?
What about the speaker? I know I read they are going to fix this at some point
There's an update coming on Nov 13 that adds a lot of new things to Google Now. Not sure if they add some Nexus 5 patches and other things as well.

Couple questions here.
360 Mobile Security gets plenty press by claiming it provides hotfixes. I haven't noticed new ones since 2012. I've noticed the same hotfixes offered to users upon installation of the app put onto any android I've observed to date. Obviously we're well into KitKat now, so are these hotfixes redundant by now due to upgraded systems since then? If not, then why haven't these issues been resolved with carrier or custom firmware by now? still claim to be exploits that your android needs even on the most recent phones. They explain what kind of exploits they'e patching, but not referencing the specific alleged exploit.
For older phones not yet rooted, does CM Security and/or 360 Security fix the MasterKey exploit and other older ones now fixed by JB 4.3 and KitKat? They don't mention that they do, yet they may do so. They also do not discuss whether they address dirty USDD issues, etc.
Thanks for any responses.
Nothing is broke, I dont see why I should update. I've learned my lesson about updating when everything is working fine. I'm on Tmobile with an unlocked N10+.
Updates are more likely to bring improvements than problems. And without updates, you have no protection from newly discovered security vulnerabilities. So I'd recommend updating unless you're ok with the possibility of someone remotely and covertly taking over your phone.
Today I saw that no matter the theme of the phone the update interface in settings turn white, all text disappeared and the only text showing now is "YOUR SYSTEM IS UP TO DATE". No more version, no more last check, etc. Is this the sign the phone was disconnected from the Xiaomi servers? I thought this was supposed to be the last month of updates.
Nothing changed in my update interface in settings, I'm on june 2021 security patch, dark theme, and I can still check for updates.
But indeed I doubt that we still have updates (maybe one last...)

This is what happened to me... can't be an isolated case, that's why I'm asking.

That's exactly what mine looks like although what it means regarding any updates is anyone's guess. As it happens my screen has started to separate just this week with long streaks up both sides. It's not affected performance yet (and may not do) but along with the lack of updates from now on I took the opportunity to order a Poco X3 Pro 8/256MB. Perhaps Outlook will decide to start working again for me
The last "performance" update was upgrade to android 10 and maybe few following, all others was security patches from google! No one cares about this model at list one year, wake up guys! Thanks god we have a realy big community, and still rolling out new customs for this model.
Hi All.
I'm on May 1 update now. Recently mobile data stopped working from time to time and cellular signal doesn't function on incoming calls and SMS when SIM is in slot 1.
Seems more like a hardware issue to me, but did you experience anything like that with your Mi A2 Lite?
guess its time to move to a stable custom rom, maybe with dt2w
Maybe But if it is a hardware fault the rom won't matter.
its not hardware, we had it and they removed it with i cant remember wich update
Has anyone received the March firmware yet (US, unlocked)? Given that the patches for the massive baseband vulnerabilities are included in the March version, I was hoping Samsung would get it out ASAP, but still nothing on my end. Wanted to see if I was alone in this?
For that matter, did anyone ever receive an update in February for this phone? The last update I've got is for the January Security patch (also brought OneUI 5.0 to the phone).
A535E with March here, but from what i know, those vulnerabilities will be fixed with April release.
I believe I saw an article somewhere that said you can turn off WiFi calling on your device to protect yourself from the vulnerabilities until the patch to fix is released.

And then there was an article like it may have been patched already or something.
Use it or don't. Whatever
I'm keeping mine on.
@tmeader
Updates with Samsung happen when they happen no matter what one you get. Some may be worse than others depending on what holds them up. Its all kind of random though. Unlocked doesn't mean much for timing.
Unfortunately disabling WiFi calling doesn't actually negate the issue. You'd have to turn off both WiFi and LTE (which is now basically impossible to do in the US) to protect yourself properly. I was just hoping that Samsung would try to speed things up given that its an issue explicitly with their modem hardware.

Yeah, was just going to say that. Forgot that's actually why I wasn't turning it off. Doing so won't necessarily help in this case.
