Question New update WW_33.0804.2060.113 - Asus Zenfone 9

Gesture navigation bar hide
Latest security patch. 5th April 23
A few other things, but so far, so good.

Beware the update posted in Asus's website is for Japan SKUs of the phone.
Did you get an OTA update on a different region or are you using a JPN ZF9?

I got OTA for phone in UK

Cant wait for it to be available from their website, i was so stupid because i unlocked the bootloader in an attempt on custom Roms. Didnt go as planned so i just reverted to stock rom, however now i dont get OTA updates..
Hoping they fixed the Bluetooth issue were the phones battery would get EATEN by "others" in the battery usage graph.

What the hell. I seriously checked their website like 1h ago and the only one available was for JPU skus only.

It must have been a typo, because the date of the firmware didn't change (31/3).
I was checking it for days and it was for JPN only and today they changed it to all regions.
Happy flashing everyone!

I think this one came out a few days ago, but good to see ASUS is patching faster than Google for April

Anybody know when will Z5C update to Android 6.0?

5.11 have a bug of power consumption.
If i recall right it took almost 6 months from sony to update z1 from kitkat to lollipop from a lollipops release day. And there is no quarantee that marshmellow will give you better battery life.

What bug you are referring to? There was memory leak at 5.0, but should be fixed already.

Network standby costs a high percentage of the battery, find some solution that need to modify the adb to fix it, it is very complex.
The z3c was updated in March.
End of December if you ask me. Telstra will give the z4 tab update in january so it is safe to say that we will get it in December
I'm betting on a January release timeframe but this is not based on any source. We do know that they're already testing Marshmellow on Z3 and Z3c models in limited beta so at least we know they've already started.

How does Telstra (Australia) have anything to do with the general Z5C Marshmallow ETA, unless they are your Telco?
The other 99.9% of Z5C users will have zero interest in when Telstra decide to "give" an update anything.
Hopefully non branded Marshmallow will arrive prior to the end of the year.
Bruh. Branded firmwares get the update AFTER the unbranded ones usually. So that's what I meant. So Telstra giving an update does matter

Come on...
He shared that information to estimate a possibility range for the Z5C.
If a carrier is going to release 6.0 in January for another Sony device, You could assume that the OTA for the Z5C/Z5, current flagships, (in general) will be before January.

Sorry, Being a bit harsh. I wouldn't rely on a Telstra estimate thats all. If the Sony OTA is delayed, Telstra will simply kick the ball down the road.
Yes that's also true. Since the carriers doesn't have the final word for an update.

Oreo is Here! Downloading it Now!

My Korean variant G600K just got OREO pushed. It's downloading now. I'm optimistic but there was NO mention of any ThinQ features in the changelog.

Probably stop refreshing. From what I've read, Korea gets it today and there's no info on the rest of the world. We're probably waiting a bit.
LG G6 (Korean) just got an update to Android Oreo today. Has anyone tried to install AR Stickers and AR Core? I tried to install it but it seems doesn't works. Anyone if has a suitable version of Google camera, AR Stickers, AR Core that can works well on G6, please reply. Thanks!
What is the new features? Please screenshoot. Im waiting for the new features

http://www.lge.co.kr/lgekor/mobile/notice/oreo01.jsp
beside some update listed there, this update also has hide navi bar feature
Honestly the hide nav bar thing should've been there when the phone was released, with the screen size and all that it only makes sense. What I'm curious of is did lg devise a way to do it without extra battery drain?

Be patient, the question has already been asked several times, it is necessary to wait until the people who had the update had time to perform a few cycles of use..
Okay I have it downloaded on a korean G600S. So far so good. Oreo 8.0 April 1st security patch. The settings menu is very different as expected. Performance is definitely a bit snappier just right off the bat.
Anyone got some news about when it will become avaible on the SEA 870ds version ? Cause my last update its from October...
BT 5?

I guess people shouldn't get too hasty.. The Oreo update is currently for Korea only. And they are getting that today so obviously they will need a day at least to check the performance and other stuff. So just wait. People will reply after testing properly

BLA-L29 Pie Update

I called Huawei today to see when Android 9 is going to hit some more regions. They said it might take 3 months because my phone is from Singapore.(sounded like he didn't know). That can't be right.

In the scheme of smartphone updates, if you gotta have the "latest and greatest" OS on your phone (not counting security patches),
you'll have to get either:
Apple iPhone, Google Pixel, Oppo OnePlus, Essential, or a couple other phones.
Most Android phone manufacturers, don't bother with updates, for a few reasons. One, they don't want to spend the resources
to make sure the new OS works with their goofy UI/bloat garbage, and older hardware. Two, it's been easier to talk people into just tossing them in the trash and buying a new one.
My phone (huawei mate9),works PERFECTLY on Oreo, has been getting the monthly security patches about 30 days late.
Would I like to have Pie? Yes. Will my life be impacted if it doesn't happen? NO.
IF, (and it's a big if), Google's Treble works out, phones SHIPPED/Released with Oreo or later, will have "major" updates and patches done by google, and the UI/bloat done by the carrier or manufacturer.
It would be nice to have gestures without a 3rd party launcher... also additional battery savings. I know the phone is already phenomenal on the battery , but we could all use more juice. Screen rotation is also going to be more to my liking with Pie.
I will post when I see the update.

Imo nightly battery drain is horrendous. Phone idle, Mobile standby and Huawei home uses too much during the night.

To be honest, you're not missing anything ground breaking although I must admit almost everything that's different is a nice change. My one big exception:
Y the truck did they switch which side they put the time on? Ridiculous.
That said, the upgrade was the smoothest I think I've ever experienced for any OS, desktop or mobile, ever.
I run the Nova Launcher and the update has not interfered with that at all. So my preferred tweaks, apart from moving the bloody time, have all been preserved.
Perhaps the biggest promised feature I'd like to think will be legitimate is battery saving. No real indication of any ground breaking changes there so far though it's only been 24 hours ?
I do understand that it's not fun to be kept waiting and feel a bit left behind.

Got it in Hungary on the 7th as well. Unfortunately the update includes a crippled version of the Dolby Audio app, which has no EQ anymore (WTF???) So make a copy of the app before the update.
Shoot, you're right! Never noticed. Bugger.

It was a false alarm. anyway. The EQ was always there, but only shown, when your your earphones were plugged in. If you disconnect your earphones it disappears right away.

Question S23 ultra update or not

i bought s23 ultra . im on stock rom didnt update nothing yet . should i update system or not . Because usually when update system phone getting more worse battery life and peoples say right now april update drain battery . Will i miss something if i dont update phone ? Honestly i want update for better camera . Maybe there is way update camera only or what should i do
Definitely update, not battery drain or anything. They fixed important camera ''bugs''. However, some phones need some time (couple of days) after some updates to settle and learn usage to optimize the battery.
I would wait. Last thing you want is worse SOT. The cam update is part of the firmware.
I would say, update. I haven't noticed any worse battery life. The camera updates and security patches are well worth updating.

So maybe after updates worth make factory reset to comparasion.
I was skeptical from years but in example in my fold 2 from OneUi 3.1.1 after supdate via ota to 5.1 running faster without reset. Overall daylight use performance similar to S23U when I comapre side by side this devices.
But this case don't change my mind about updates and I want stay my S23U on the latest A13 more time after sharing A14 or maybe even A15.
Samsung will eventually force update no matter what. Might as well get it done and over with.
I still have s10+ as i give it to my son... Phone after all those OTA over the years is as fast as it was new and no issue with SoT, in fact sot is comparable to my 23 ultra... Maybe 1 h less... Still crazy good photos, everything works... I think all that updates issue is placebo and some legends who knows form where they come from...
