Good afternoon
Firstly I purchased my device through o2 which is a phone company in the UK. I though since my phone is a nexus phone my phone would automatically qualify for updates from Google without the network testing then before release. How wrong was I.
I just spoke with someone from o2 who confirmed that the software is being tested before realise meaning the carrier has control of the updates and they are not coming straight from Google. Screens below
I'm guessing this will be the same for any phone purchased through a carrier in the UK. Guess il be flashing a stock from later
I don't bother waiting for ota, get to the factory image Google webpage and download them. I have only ever taken a handful of ota updates on my nexus and always tend to fast boot the new imgs. That way you are in control of your own updates from google

Do you need root for this or just unlocked boot loader

Just an unlocked bootloader. You can relock it after installing the update.

would OTA work as of normal from then?
I just think he does not know what he is talking about. It's really annoying how misinformed people are in call centres etc...
Since all phones are bloatwared by o2 he does not realise that Nexus is different.
I highly doubt o2 is testing software for nexuses. I think we would have different biuld numbers in first place.
Well, I got mine from CPW on EE and didn't have any ota yet but as I said its hard for me to believe that it has anything to do with EE.

I specifically ordered from GPS because I don't want a carrier touching my device.
I received an OTA as soon as i turned it on.
My sim is from EE
Yeah that guy is full of it
Never listen to live chat agents they haven't a clue what they're talking about GSM Carriers have no say or word on Nexus devices. If carriers had control over updates for your device they'd add their bloatware and company splash screen like they usually do.

I didn't get an update when I setup the phone with my VZW sim. I did get the update when I left it out and setup via WiFi.
I too would have thought that the live chat person is just saying the normal stuff about phone updates as if we had a Samsung phone for example and does not realise the difference in Nexus updates. But the fact there has been updates published and every time I check system update it says I am up to date I am starting to get suspicious that something is going on.

first up, take out the sim (or put into airplane) and then try it on wifi only (as someone said above worked for them). Second, you asked if it was being tested by Google rather than by O2 (pic 2).... the rep was actually right(!) in that it's not being tested by O2.

It's Googles stupid POS Staged Rollout system that everyone on Android uses that's the cause here. why they need a staged rollout for security updates boggles me.
What are the differences between the various 6P images on the google factory image site? Not sure which one to flash.
Total BS. Updates for Nexus come from Google and only Google.
As a couple of others have said, screw the OTA and just fastboot the Google factory images.
That way you get the update as soon as Google up it

I decided to have another go and I got a completely different answer which to me makes more sense. The adviser basicly says that google are staggering the update in case of bugs. Full conversation is attached below.
I already skipped ahead and installed the latest update using the dev website as I'm rather impatient

I saw somebody had started a similar thread a week or so ago on this topic, but now I can't find it.
Anyway, as the subject box says, the option to bill to my at&t account is no longer there when purchasing apps via google play. Was wondering if anyone had a new solution or if there are others out there that still can with google play, or can't like myself.
Thank you

Has anyone heard anything new about this?
I have contacted both Google and AT&T, both of who claim that there should be no problem, either with my account specifically or the system as a whole.
I only have the "Add Card" option.
I am using Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket on AT&T
I too only see the "Add Card" option. So it isn't only you.
I use the option often, and it's still there for me.
I saw the same thread the OP saw a week or so ago, and I remember thinking to myself that it could be missing if you have a custom non stock rom flashed. Would be news to me as I've had custom roms on other phones before and never had a problem. I could be wrong though as I'm definitely not a dev.
I had this option disappear on me, and I've never used a custom ROM on my Infuse. I did root the device, though.
When u use custom Rom it tends to happen but its very rare BUT clear ur market data and go into market it will ask you to log back in. That should work if not let me know

Still missing
I have been fighting this issue since Feb 21st.
I have reset my phone back to factory settings 2 or 3 times and had the sim card changed twice. Still the bill to mobile option is missing. It worked fine and showed up every time until Feb 21st of this year and nothing I do seems to fix it. Strange things is some of my coworkers have the Samsung Skyrocket and can bill to mobile with no problems. Has anyone any real info on whats going on or what the real issue is??

I need more info than that to help u. Are u rooted if so what Rom u using or are u stock?
on Sprint, you had to be a "A" customer, with a year or more of perfect payments to even have a chance of being able to bill to your carrier; if you are new to ATT, or have poor credit, it won't work for you..
My info
It is right out of the box.
I have done nothing to it other than use
as it would normally be used.
So I guess it is stock. No idea how to root a phone.

cant bill to account
same problem, rooted SGSII Skyrocket, completely stock. i used the feature a couple times, then... "poof" its gone. i read some of the replys and i missed a bill one day by mistake and im not sure if thats what did it or not but that was 5 months ago. there are no purchase blocking services on my account, but i cant be totally sure because customer service is closed, so i plan on calling in the morning to find out if there are any hidden services seeing as it is AT&T. im determined to find out why i cant bill things to my account; because i dont use credit cards its quite inconvenient if i want to purchase something. if i figure this out ill be sure to post on this thread and/or make a new one on how to hunt down the solution.
I had a similar problem but I believe it has something to do with the ROM you are currently running. I have seen the option on some roms and not in others.

Well that's the thing, my phone is completely stock except for that it's rooted. And it worked when it was rooted too because I bought "android over clock" coincidentally on February 21, the same day I believe someone mentioned the ability to bill to the account, disappeared.
Well I called att and to no avail. They where as or more clueless to my issue at hand. So I'm stuck behind a brick wall now.

I did the CC to OEM successfully, just wondering if I did get an OTA prompt could I go ahead and accept it? Would it work as normal or fail/brick my phone? I didn't root, just bootloader unlocked for the conversion
yes, you can. Your phone is pretty much 99.9% (if not 100%) OEM.

This is probably correct, if they don't have a system in place that auto rejects ConsumerCellular/Wind IMEI numbers.
We won't really know for sure until there is an OTA.
I haven't checked today, but Huawei pulled the update. Couple quirks that they need to iron out.
Other apps not staying default, one I've had plus it appears to be eating the battery a bit more, but,
with the 4000 mAH battery, it's no big deal.

Yep, saw that on the Huawei site about a day or two after they released it. Mine should be in their system, but I don't think the update will be coming soon.
I'm starting to get the feeling, they released whatever they had, on the 30th, to satisfy their "in the first half of 2015" pledge, and will sort out the bugs later.
If a consumer is the type that wants cutting edge updates, go with an iphone or Nexus. Otherwise, it's up to the carriers (if ever) to release it or the device maker, if purchasing an unlocked non carrier branded device. The couple quirks on 5.1 aren't that big of a deal, it's stable otherwise.
If it hadn't been for Huawei releasing an easy way to go back to 4.3, I wouldn't have updated. I don't ever turn my device off, so the launcher not sticking, along with the 3rd party SMS program isn't that annoying. It appears it's sucking just a bit more juice, but, with that 4,000mAH battery, it's no big deal, even running in "normal" mode.
Z981 for T-Mobile has a new update and it seems to fix some screen tearing issues. Update seems to add some stability too.
Any one else running this update?
Thoughts?
Just found out that you can unlock the bootloader with this update by tapping the build number 3 times.
Then developer options can be enabled.
Then OEM unlocking can be enabled.
What does this do for us guys?
It updated for me this morning, and I have yet to see much of a difference. Then again, I've been doing housework all day and haven't messed with the phone today.
Did some looking, the update was just the November security patch.
The bootloader unlock option was there before the recent update. You need to find the tmo folks on tinder and snuggle with them to get those tools to actually use that option.
Been 24hrs since I updated and have hammered device with no sight of the "Tetris stack" glitches. So on top of the security patch there must've been a kernel / graphic driver update.
good day.
The Metro variant just got an update too. Added a few features and included a few bug fixes. Haven't had time to really test drive it but it seems to be stabler, no screen bugs or data drops yet.
Edit: The Metro update also let us get into recovery now but nobody's had time to play with it much yet. So far we've got recovery, FTM mode, and safe mode, I think.

Yes the metro update actually fix my screen flicker. I tested minecraft that has screen flicker many many times while playing it. After the update, I played it again and no flickers so I am really happy about it.
AS for recovery, FTM mode, and safe mode - I had all those even before the update, actually.

Yes, that's what I thought after I read in one thread that MetroPCS pulled the update. Waiting a bit doesn't kills? Feels great to be back in XDA again. I usually use XDA for learning and reference, I only have a couple of post but been around for awhile.
My z981's mfg date was October 2016, T-Mobile variant, I picked it up December 10th, when I realised my Nexus 5 was unsalvageable. I assume the update was pulled, as I am on 0B04, one page on T-Mobile's site says the update was set for a staged release between the 21st of November through the 19th of December, another page doesn't even show this phone amongst their active or testing updates..
If I receive an update notification, I'll pull the file, but I probably won't flash it myself.

Nice. The update never showed up on my device. I may reset it just to see, but I'm not concerned. I replaced the launcher from the start, disabled a couple of apps, but the phone works well enough for me as is. I mostly read and listen to music, so nothing demanding.
Still, a nougat update with an unlocked bootloader/fastboot would be a great gift from ZTE lol.
[edit] I backed up my music and files, and reset the phone, still no update. I won't worry about it 'till people start receiving the 'next' update, or root is achieved and someone makes a custom kernel/rom.

I don't personally own one, the default charger works well enough for me so far, though the phone supposedly charges significantly faster while off. I haven't tested this myself, but if it turns out to be true, I'd assume the kernel limits charging, which wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.

If I ever receive the update I'll pull it from the device and upload it to mega or Google drive. Not holding my breath, since it was probably put on hold for causing issues on some devices.

Looks like the LG G6 and other phones are getting important updates this week from Verizon. https://www.droid-life.com/2017/11/...s-galaxy-s7-s7-edge-lg-g6-v20-moto-z2-z-play/
Verizon has started pushing out a new update to LG V20 units on its network. Arriving as software version VS99518A, it brings the November security patch.
Reports say the carrier is all set to push out new updates - presumably containing the November patch - to several other smartphones as well, including Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 edge, LG G6, and Moto Z Play and Z2 Play. These updates should be rolling out later today.
#GSMArena
They waited this long to provide any patches, should have just waited until Oreo.
Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk
Sad part is when Oreo comes, they'll probably roll out 8.0 instead of the fixed 8.1. Nougat 7.0 has flaws that 7.1/7.1.2 fixed but they started with it. I remember suffering through the same bluetooth audio issues when my Nexus 6P was on 7.0.
update from the Droid life article: LG G6: VS98813A
"On a related note, this is the first update for the LG G6 on Verizon since August 1, which means that phone is still on July’s security patch. If you ever wonder why we prefer Google’s phones so much for updates, this would be a good example."
So much for a meaningful update. I'm torn whether to upgrade to a Galaxy phone for the features or a Google Pixel for timely updates.

As much as Verizon gums up the update timetables, this is a big LG issue. I'm on an unlocked US997 and the 16A update didn't drop that long ago.
The G6 was a compromise for me - I needed an upgrade, badly wanted an unlockable AOSP device that would work on Verizon, but am not independently wealthy. This new price point sucks Google!

The update situation with the G6 is totally ridiculous.
And not only that. Out of pure frustration I recycled my old Nexus 5x a few days ago and upgraded it to the 8.1 preview.
This old phone is so blazingly fast and snappy with 8.1 that it puts the G6 to shame.

Howdy,
I just got off the phone with Verizon. I asked them if the ringer volume and the notification volume were separate or paired up together after this VS98813A update. They had no idea whether or not it was one or the other. I had upgraded to the G6 about a month ago from the Droid Turbo. They had an update that was automatically downloaded and it paired the volumes together. I hated it. It's like taking in your Ferrari for a tune up and getting it back and find out that they got rid of the bucket seats and installed a bench seat.
I'm sure some of you may say that is not a big deal, but it is to me. I like to keep the ringer at full volume yet have the ability to lower the text volume at night or somewhere where it would be a disturbance.
So, the question is....does the new VS98813A update pair up the volumes?
Thanks..

The update has not been favorable to my battery. Typically I get 18 to 24 hours on battery with 4.5 to 5 hours of screen on time. Yesterday after applying the update on Thursday, I got 11 hours total and 4 hours screen on time .
It also installed an uninstallable app called appflash. Which is getting demolished in the play store.

Right on. thanks. I installed it this morning. let's see how long my battery lasts. I had to look at system aps to see the apflash.
useless ap. I was able to force stop/disable it. (my phone's not rooted) But it keeps starting itself up. sheesh.
I need to learn how to root.....
any how, thank you for the answer!!
why do people get the updates in different times as other? i got the lg g6 verizon and many people got the update but not me
Whenever I open the BT Sport app, I get a message telling me to "Update Google Play services BT Sport won't run unless you update Google Play services". When I click on update, it opens Google Play services on the Play store but there's no update available. Anyone else having this problem?
When using Google Chrome, I occasionally see the message to sign in but I'm already logged in! If I click on the sign in message, it takes me to the usual Google log in screen and when I enter my username, it tells me that I'm already logged in. Does this happen to anyone else?
I ordered the handset directly from the Huawei/Honor on Wednesday afternoon and received it on Friday, can't fault the service. Using the advertised £30 discount code, I paid £369 for the handset and the Bluetooth earphones.
Today I received update COL-L29 8.1.0.104 (C432). It weighed in at 246MB and I performed a factory reset but I'm still experiencing the issues I mentioned above.
Other than that, it's a snappy phone and quite compact. I feel the camera is better than the Nokia 7 plus that it's replacing but not quite on par with my Samsung Note 8.

I've got the 128GB/4GB variant that is sold on the official Honor UK website.
Unfortunately I can't post pics or links due to my low post count.

If possible post it to imgur and replace . With dot in url or pm me imgur url.
Is my honor 10 the same as others, that the led notification is small like a spec of dust?
Yes the notification light is tiny. When charging it is lit green but barely visible.
