I got the system software update yesterday afternoon.
Android 10
Android Security Patch Level: April 1, 2020
Software Version: V600AM10h
This is the first update since I got my phone on April 1st, and it shipped with the February 2020 Security Patch.
Just an FYI for folks on the fence for whatever reason. A surprisingly timely update.
I hear T-Mo users got a similar update as well.
Edit - I can't seem to upload an image of my Settings screen.
Adding proof via screen shot.
I couldn't figure out how to edit an attachment into the original post.
Apologies for the double-post.
New update on AT&T just hit.
Still on the April 1, 2020 security patch, but the software version number jumped from V600AM10h to V600AM10p.
No idea what's new, yet.
Is there a way to turn off auto updates? I was in the middle of a video chat when it decided to install this update and reboot my device.
Update info from AT&T support page
Support page says it adds Dynamic Spectrum Sharing
Will not show as available for me on mine.
My LG phones NEVER update. AT&T tech says: "We'll push one out. It will come in 4 hours" but it never happens. They replaced my V30 and G8 over that. I've had my V60 since the week it was launched. No updates.

Why is motorola not Providing?
Motorola should start providing Security patches updates so that it helps the users to free from vulnerabilities.
A mountain out of a mole hill.
Good god man. Is your phone working properly without any one passing through your "Vulnerability" ? most likely yes. so no harm if the update comes late. it's pointless to keep asking for updates and dissing moto.
First everyone was asking for Marshmallow and now they want Mushrooms....
Sent from my Toilet using Moto G3....
Considering the kernel root exploit which was discovered a few days ago and which affects pretty much all Android devices, including the ones running Marshmallow, I think that's not an unreasonable request.
Getting security updates in time and on a regular basis is much more important than being the first one to get a new OS version.

I suggest that you do a little more investigation before you announce that the sky is falling. The latest vulnerabilities were released by Perception Point and Redhat without Androids security people knowing anything about it. It's suggested by many security experts that it won't affect that many devices, Androids lead security engineer stated "devices with Android 5.0 and above are protected, as the Android SELinux policy prevents 3rd party applications from reaching the affected code."
I like what another person says,
" I find it stupid that (1) people are concerned that there phone may be at risk and more likely isn't, (2) moaning google have not reacted properly yet they have patched AOSP even though it was just dropped on them, (3) people have specifically chosen a manufacturer without checking if the do security patching and complain they don't get patches.
If you think security is most important feature of your phone, get a nexus or iOS device or pick a manufacturer that states they will patch. Bit stupid getting a phone for it's pen then moaning about patching."

Strange that they started rolling out One UI 2.5 for the note 9 but didn't for the S9 lineup as there were some articles about.
I just received the october patch update for my S9+ and I'm still on 2.1.
This means we may get it separately or may not get it at all this month.
I received the One UI 2.5 Update Yesterday, with the October Patch. S9+, Germany.
I wonder if whoever got the october update without it will get a separate patch or we'll have to wait until the November update.
November update and no One UI 2.5 yet in SM-96500.
One UI 2.5 installed about a week ago on my T-Mobile S9+. Nov security patch just about 1 hr ago.
Just updated my AT&T S21+ to this build. Nothing new to report. Let us know, on this thread, if you find any issues or something new or improved on this release.
I couldn't find any categories for Schok so I'm posting here. Feel free to move if needed. I saw this phone which was launched a couple weeks ago and is labeled the" 2022 edition".
Schok Freedom Turbo XL - Schok Gear
The most advanced flip phone in its class. The Schok classic is made for consumers who enjoy life without complications.
www.schokgear.com
It comes with Jan 2022 security update on the phone out of the box. Does anyone know if Schok ever updates their phones with security updates? What about Android updates? I don't care about 5g, but the phone comes with Android 10 which I think is a little outdated for a new phone in 2022. If not is there a way of updating these ourselves both for security updates and Android OS?
Hello everyone, this is my first post on this forum.
I was gifted with a hotwav cyber 7 rugged smartphone which I quite like. The only problem Is that when I try to update It, it says that the last available android security update was on 5 October 2021.. is it normal? Is safe to use a device like that? I forgot to say that it has android 11.
Security patches are frequent for phones, and there are easy ways to keep up to date on your phone in particular. But: It's on OEM whether they provide updates published by Google or not. Google can't force anyone to deliver them to you. So you'll need to wait for them to send an update.
BTW:
That's the reason why I use Google Pixel phones. Thus latest update I got is security upate released 2023-06-05.
Yes I'd use a different phone too, but this one was a gift. So with that said, is it safe to use a device like that as my main smartphone? Are the security patches that important or the usage of an AntiVirus can make up for the shortage of updates?
IMO antivirus programs aren't beneficial on a smartphone, are senseless crap, only the Android security patches MUST NOT BE IGNORED BUT IMMEDIATELY GET INSTALLED.
FYI: Samsung closes a total of 64 security vulnerabilities in Galaxy devices with the June update.
Got it.. so do you suggest me to get rid of a smartphone with android 11 that had its last update in October '21 and will probably never have further updates?
