try offline update
Hi everyone!
I've just received and successfully installed a system update for Android 5.1.1 and it says exactly zero about itself. Even Android's version hasn't changed.
Does anyone have any idea what it fixes? I surmise it fixes two recent holes but 10MB sounds a little too much for that.
I also got but nothing happened
Sent from my Nexus 5
I got it, I'm updating manually since for some reason my phone never wants to update the regular way.
It addresses the Stagefright vulnerability
How can I apply this update manually?
It doesn't apply automatically - there are no errors, nothing. I've rebooted my phone three times already and it wants to install it again.

flash it through ADB
I use this thread as reference just to make sure I don't miss any step but there are a few others threads like this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/guide-update-rooted-device-to-5-1-lmy47d-t3050789
OTA install error
I got the OTA notification to download & install the Stagefright patch. Every time I try to install it, it says "error!" shortly after it starts to install and shows the android with a red exclamation point.
My nexus 5 is stock & unrooted.
Any idea what's causing this and how to force the install? If not, I can sideload OTA with ADB later tonight.
Thanks!
I think the build number should have changed to LMY48I.

adb fastboot
I've had my first freeze and first complete blackout since this small update
This should be the monthly update mentioned on main page
This update is worthless: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/0...efright_fix_wont_be_resolved_until_september/
I will skip it.
Just wondering if anyone had a fix or explanation for my situation. I Received an update on the Blu Vivo 5R this Friday, Android 7.0. Then in the process today of unlocking the bootloader and flashing twrp, it got screwed up. so I downloaded the stock rom and flashed it, no biggie. fixed the boot freeze issue. but now I'm back to 6.0 because that was the most up-to-date stock rom. I tried checking for updates, supposedly I'm up to date. I even called Blu support to see if they could push it to my IMEI or something with no luck. they said they release it in batches and the software team deals with that, anyone know a way I could resolve this
You can try manually setting the date ahead a few days and reboot, sometimes that will bring an update.

Didn't do anything, thanks for the quick response though.
Does anyone have a link to the new Nov security patch that came through last night for Fi?
Even with uninstalling Magisk, my phone doesn't want to install the update, so i'll just flash manually with fastboot.
I've checked https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/payton/official/FI/ but haven't seen the Nov firmware yet.
Thanks in advance,
You will either have to do a factory reset on your current version and root after you apply the OTA November update or wait a few weeks for it to be posted to Lolinet.

Same situation here as Enemy Lines, but to be clear N&G, the only way updating this security patch is happening is with a factory reset, correct? Either one right now to install the OTA, or flashing the full updated firmware once it's on Lolinet which means a reset as well. According to Magisk, it should handle this with no problem. But apparently can't in this case.
lolinet should have it in 2-3 weeks, but that would mean a full flash.
lmsa doesn't have it.
I don't know if it is possible to download an OTA sec patch - haven't seen it offered to me.
I trust you know that if you have a modified recovery, like twrp, the patch will fail because the install needs to reboot through (stock) recovery to finish installing it.
I just went ahead and reflashed the Oct rom (minus the userdata delete), let the Nov update install, then repatched for magisk.
I must have changed something in the system partition and didn't realize it ?*

Didn't know that, but suspected that was the case. Thanks for confirming. Guess I'll just full flash it when it hits Lolinet.
If you are going to be getting the latest OTA stuff by doing a full flash you might want to reflect on just how much, or little, you would gain. We all like to think that if we have the latest security patch we are somehow more safe, though I don't believe I have ever heard of a phone being affected by something just because it is not on the latest patch. I was running my old Moto z play on an aug '18 (if I remember correctly) patch with no problems up until a few weeks ago when it was done in by an expanding battery envelope which cracked the display. Consider, also, that many of the custom roms that are available are not updated at all - it takes a ton of work to try to get/keep a custom ROM current, AND working! Yet you never hear of viruses or the like. I will post this as a new thread.
Don't disagree Khris. Heck I ran 8.0 until about a month ago and flashed up to 9.0. What I really want is to get that damned annoyed perpetual update from interrupting my phone every five minutes. I turned off Automatic Updates in Dev Ops but that doesn't seem to have helped. Anyone have a useful solution.

LOL I have heard that complaint before and I know of no way to stop the notification. Go for it!!!
I'm going to give Enemy's October approach a try. It's all tediously [un]necessary, I suppose. Anyway, thanks for everyone weighing in. Always useful stuff here.
That should work with no problem. and no waiting!
EDIT - I found when I was doing that a lot, I used Nova launcher as it would save apps and desktop and made setup after flash much faster.
If you are just looking to get rid of the update notification you can use Titanium Backup or similar to freeze the 'Motorola Update Services' process.
Thanks Kris and Neo. Nova launcher certainly helps and I appreciate the tip with Titanium Backup and Motorola Update.
That said, here's this for anyone interested:
Like Enemy Lines I went to Lolinet and downloaded the October firmware. I used @munchy_cool’s useful firmware flash guide because he’s got the right Flash-All.sh or .bat scripts in his links. (Link below.) Before flashing I opened the Flash-All.sh and deleted the following command: ./fastboot erase userdata
That preserved my stuff which I’d have lost in a straight flash or factory reset. I downloaded the November patch, updated, reinstalled TWRP and Magisk.
Mac people, once you’ve opened terminal, you may have to activate the Flash-All.sh script with the following command and your password: sudo chmod +x flash-all.sh
If you’re unsure about any of this, read Munchy_Cool’s guide and watch the included vid.

No idea why this posted twice.
Thanks!
The stock firmware repository updated a few days ago, new date showing for last activity. No new uploads as of yet, but I believe the updated date precedes the actual firmware being available.
39-6-2 for fi - yeah that's the "Nov 1" one I ota'ed on 11-27, and 11-27 is the date of the ota. So it takes about 4 weeks for us to get it and another 3 weeks for lolinet to post it. So, yeah, if you're in a rush, grab the latest and then let it ota. - at least on retus ATT prepaid...
My phone doesn't see the May update, it says the April update is the latest one. Can anyone guess why?

I don't know. I never wait for OTA to arrive. As soon as the factory image is available, I download it and flash it manually...so...
There's always a lag before the updates roll out via OTA. I don't even get them because I guess Google sees Magisk and just refuses to offer it so I also download the factory image and dirty flash it.
My son's 4a just got the update as I wrote this post...
