Google has been addressing security on Android through monthly updates.
Why is android securtiy patch level on P9000 not updated more regularly?
Even though we had OTA 20170112 , the android security patch level is 1 June 2016. This is now more than 8 months old!
To check this: Settings, About phone
Why don't we receive regular updates, even if it is just with the latest security patches?
i didn't see any relevant answer in https://forum.xda-developers.com/elephone-p9000/help/p9000-security-updates-t3407544 or here http://bbs.elephone.hk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=13198&fromuid=90419
depend on company patent with software
you can upgrade security level by custom rom latest build

The integration costs the company money, that's why updates mostly came very late or never.
And that's because we use custom ROMs like CM oder LOS. LOS13 [Build2] has a security patch level from march 2017.
Hi,
Are we ever going to get new Android security patches? My phone (L21) is still on 1st September patch level... I had understood Huawei had committed to supporting the phone for two years but it seems that they have abandoned it....
I see other people saying that their patch level is 1st December but my phone doesn't find any new update when I check... I have also used the Firmware Finder app and indeed the latest patch levels seem to be available only for other Customisations (D001, D002) but there is nothing for mine (D003).... Does anybody know why?
By the way, I have another Sumsung phone which is older than the 5x and it is currently on 1st Feb 2017 patch level.
Hello, hope this is the right place to post.
I have a EA version and today I had an update to the V20g-EUR-XX of the May 24th 2021. Seems to be essentially Google/Android stuff added or modified.
Have someone more infos bout this software update?
Thx
I'm showing a GP system update available and when I go to update it says I'm up to date with August 1 date. I was on Sept yesterday.
Anyone else experience this?
I think i've just got this, when cehcking the same page, it telling me to restart, will post new screen on the flipside of te reboot
Perhaps it was the November 5th Security update?

No, not that.
Just found this:

Some Pixel users are reporting that a Google Play system update is actually downgrading their devices from September to August 2021.

I have not found a way yet. Mine says August 1. It's odd.
Still stuck on August on 6 Pro but seems tbe latest update. Think Google has run out of fingers.
I think latest Nov update should end in 037.
As In title.....Just installed it, but cant see anything different.....does anyone know whats new?

I am very sure that it is a security update that is targeted to make Android less vulnerable to hackers etc.
