Latest patch I have is 1 February. I think, typically, the wireless carrier is the one who releases an update, not the manufacturer. Your phone seems unaffiliated with OE ROM.

Thank you for the information very helpful and very grateful..
Scary buying a new device not getting what you think..
Strange it’s a European LG V40 LMV405EBW but from Hong Kong via Amazon UK.
Cheers sas007

Twice now, I've ordered replacement displays for a specific cell phone in a particular family of phones. Both times, I've gotten the wrong screen, even after scrutinizing the description and very carefully researching the exact part number.

Lg V40 LMV405EBW with Hong Kong rom
Hello,
the same problem i bought europe version Lg V40 but have rom from Hong Kong (soft. ver.: V10b-HKG-xx) and security patch from 1th December. Is some possibility to flash an European rom, e.g. DEC region with czech language (can already be downloaded with android Pie).
All the best
Thx

I bought my lg v40 legally in store in Slovakia. It's eu open. Week ago, in Serbia, I've got pie OTA with may security patch.

Hi, is there a new Night View mode from G8 included in Camera in PIE?
Thanks.

Nope

V40, however, does have a dark theme. Pretty cool.

International SM-N950F Security Updates (Not US versions)

Hey guys, has anyone on an International SM-N950F received a security update later than 1st August 2017 yet?
I'm not talking about the US or Snapdragon models!

Nope, no one in the EU has till now.
Yeah, didn't think so. I've been Tweeting @Samsungmobile and @SamsunghelpUK but they don't even bother themselves to respond.
Samsung rolled today the BQK6 out for the N950F. It should arrive also for other regions shortly.
both my 950f unlocked models are still on august 1st security patch, don't see the big deal about it though

Hi, the big deal is that your phone is vulnerable to the KRACK and Blueborne exploits and is therefore insecure.
Indian version SM-N950FD has received November security patch today morning.

SPAIN. No update so far
Still on Aug patch.
Still waiting....
Still on August as well.
I'm new to Samsung so the CSC has me a little confused. I'm in Canada but have the International version N950F/D. My CSC is reported as CHO/CHO/BRI. Since the update was released to BRI already, shouldn't I have gotten it or do I need to wait until it shows up for CHO? I'm currently on N950FXXU1AQI8 for Build Number and N950FXXU1AQHB for Baseband. Thanks....sorry for the newb question.
I'm still shocked at how a large company like Samsung let's their flagship phones fall so far behind in updates/security. I came from Oneplus, who used to have a bad rep in the software updates area but is nowhere near as bad.
Nothing in PAK yet. N950FD

Samsung SUX in updates..for their flagship device...strange.
Got my update this morning. 536MB, N950FXXU1AQHB, November 1st security patch. I am in Europe, Portugal. All good so far.
Got the update on my 950F (CCT: AUT) today

Are you sure you have the INDIAN-version (CSC=INS) of the Note8?
Because India has received the December security-patch already!

Since it is unlocked, U1, the update came from Samsung. not att. It was a minor security patch that brought security up to the December patch.

I have not seen any signs of this yet on OTA.
My M3 8" is wifi only, last update was to BTV-W09C100B303.
I have as far as I can tell the model intended for the UK market.
I will keep checking OTA and report back if an update shows up.
I notice from other posts that the OTA updates appear sporadic in different countries and different roll out dates.
Perhaps they are still rolling updates out depending on location - are you in the UK?
BTV-W09C100B305 for the euro WiFi version has appeared on firmware finder. I haven't installed it yet but it contains security updates.

This updated via OTA to W09C100B303 in Jan 2018
Then I got an OTA to W09C100B305 yesterday.
My M3 is for the UK market which is where I am.

Does carrier matter if you using an unlocked device bought directly from from Samsung?

No, we need to wait for the U1 update to be released witch has typically been the last to be released. I believe these are the U versions being referred to here. Also everything new on Sammobile is the U so far. It shouldn't much longer for us.

Have not receives any updates since November update too on Sprint using unlocked model. It seems either Sprint or unlocked version always receives the updates last in the US.

I ended up using the firmware.science to update to pie. That bumped me up to December update automatically on pie. I also get to keep the Unlocked firmware without any bloatware and the rom is rocksolid stable.

After reading from users how the pie update takes away functionality and is full of bugs, I'm fine with them delaying the rollout.

It's been so long!
***crickets***
It has been so long for us! I wonder if Samsung will ever update it!

Is the September security patch live for the S10 yet (SM-G973U1)?

I am assuming that Samsung does the monthly security updates...
It's monthly but it is usually not released till mid month each month. I have S9+ and updates I'm receiving are released closer to the end month.
Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk
Ah, okay. Sorry about the noob question. I just got the thing.
No but right now I'm getting my second update with the August 1 patch. This second one is larger than the first.
Yes, this is really strange as I already had the August Security Patch and got an update today and I thought it was the Sept patch but it seems to be a 2nd August Patch?View attachment 4817286

Anyone know of a way to turn off forced updates and just allow them when I want to install them?
On Sprint fw I had Sept1, after flashing U1 latest is Aug1 as of now.
I got the notification. I just wanted to be sure it works...

That is really weird, unless there were no such vulnerabilities.
