How do i find or where do i look to update to feb , march , april? Im just curious , it says im up to date, obviously i am not?
Hmm what firmware do you have on your device? Having a search on the Reddit motog pages, seems that the XT1806 is on the NPS26.116-48 series of firmwares https://www.reddit.com/r/MotoG/comments/8otvt2/april_security_update_for_moto_g5s_plus_retail_us/ Looks like the April 2018 OTA to NPSS26.116-48-15 is the latest?
Seems that some retUS devices also shipped with NPS26.116-45, I'm not sure what update path they took, maybe merged to the NPS26.116-48 series of updates? https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74352527&postcount=43

Hmm, looks like your device is on the incorrect firmware - I found this link from Republic Wireless indicating that NPSS26.116-48-15 is the April 2018 security patch for US devices: https://forums.republicwireless.com/t/system-update-for-moto-g5s-05-23-18/19234
Though I've not found the April 2018 firmware, here's links to the NPSS26.116-48-12 and NPSS26.116-45-12 firmwares (March 2018 security patch)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76070231&postcount=24
However, I'm not sure as to the differences between the two firmwares - they've both been deployed to XT1806 devices from what I've read. It seems the NPSS26.116-48-12 build was the more commonly deployed? Fully flashing one of these firmwares should get you OTA updates to the April 2018 security patch. I'm hoping that someone with a US device can comment further.
Which one should i use or does it matter

Again, I don't know what the difference is between the 45-12 and the 48-12 firmwares - however, the 48-12 firmware appears to be more commonly mentioned, so you may be okay with the 48-12 firmware? Good luck whichever you decide.
Ill try the 48 today, havent had tge time, i too looked at both and really dont see any difference, tge firmware im using worjs fine and i have no issues just no ota, i initially bricked this phone, but ived never trully bricked an ardoid phone in my life , i lost recovery thus time and the OS, but with adb fastboot , i was back in business in a matter of minutes, just needed to find A firmware

Which part of that sentence did you have trouble understanding?
So after flashing 45 , upon boot it immediately grabbed the April Security Update ! Is there a June Security update , I heard there was in some countrys. Or is this just Soak test chatter?
I own the Canadian P20 pro variant (CLT-L04) and just installed a recent official OTA firmware update for it - version 8.1.0.111 (from 8.1.0.009). My device started with 8.1.0.007.
I've been debating about rebranding in order to get the more recent firmware updates which appear to be up to version 8.1.0.132 (?) worrying that I was missing the more recent features.
But after checking out the changes in this firmware I realized that I have many of the same features of the supposedly more recent firmwares such as:
1. The new zoom button in the camera interface placed at the bottom of the screen in the shape of a square.
2. The new slow motion box that detects movement and starts the super slow motion automatically.
3. ISO select up to 102400 is Pro mode.
4. Camera defaults to 2x mode in aperture mode (not a fan on this)
5. The HiTouch feature accessible through the camera (the eyeball icon - top left) or by touching the screen with two fingers
6. Latest security patch is for June 1st, 2018 (this is behind some other firmwares I believe that have July patches?)
7. Selfie beautification is much lower .
I'm not sure what other features I'm missing out on compared to the supposedly more recent firmwares but these seem very similar to what are being reported in firmware 8.1.0.132.
Does this mean that Huawei releases different features by region even if the firmware has the same version number? In other words, firmware version 8.1.0.11 in Canada will have features that 8.1.0.11 in another country does not? This means one cannot directly compare firmwares by version number alone and assume they are equivalent in terms of features and changes across devices.
Anyone else running 8.1.0.11 on any other variant who can check whether they also have the features I've observed in my firmware version?
So confusing :
In any case, I'm much less concerned about rebranding now that I seem to have some of the more recent firmware changes.
I'm not 100% sure, but my opinion is that different regions elaborate in different speed the base firmware.
I am not speaking about minor country differences, but major like: Eu, China, Russia, US, Canada etc.
For example:
european firmware numbers are far ahead of china firmware numberings, however, eu firmwares lack a lot of functionality, that cn firmwares had already
(eu fw CLT-L29C432B132 has the functions, that CLT-AL01C00B112 cn firmware already had)
So i am assuming, that this happens in your case.
One prove is FF - look at the changelogs: despite one has july patch, however another from june patch has a lot more improvements
And about FF speaking: always take a look at version numbers ex:
CLT-L04C792B113 (8.1.0.113) FullOTA-MF 3.43 GB 2018.07.11 3085 1604 version nr: 154641 1
CLT-L29C432B131a (8.1.0.131a) FullOTA-MF 3.3 GB 2018.07.05 2943 1604 version nr: 150210 1
How did you get 111 in Canada? Ota won't update past 109 for me

u the same viper98 from rfd?? lmao
for me, im on 109 as well. No available updates.
Thanks tamaskurti for your observations and explanation.
As for other Canadians on firmware 109 all I did to get the update is manually check by pressing the "check for updates" button in the system ->system updates page.
I use firmware finder to check for new firmwares only. The OTA updates come a little more than a month after the date that is listed in the firmware finder description.
E.g., firmware 111 was dated June 14th and I received it July 20th.
UPDATE: There is yet another update on FF for version 113 for the Canadian model. It is dated July 11th so I expect to see the OTA update middle of August if this pattern holds.
BTW I'm with Koodo mobile (Telus) and bought the phone through them. Maybe they are faster to approve the firmwares than Bell or Rogers and thats why some of you are getting it later? Just a guess.
I'll try to keep this thread updated with any other firmware changes that I notice when I receive . 113
Weird. I checked with a koodo sim in Thursday and it didn't find anything

Looks like it updated to .114 now. Just an FYI
Being behind on updates feels bad
I just got 111 pushed today
tried on my koodo sim
still nothing there either
With Bell, just received the 111 update. How do we go about rebranding? Wouldn't mind trying a new Rom
Sammobile has posted a number of regional T700 firmwares in the recent few weeks. The firmware patch level is from summer 2017, but it was built this summer. Bizarre, isn't it? Very un-samsung-like to release an update to four year old tablet. However, if they do release an update why not use the most recent Marshmallow AOSP codebase (I believe from r81 from October 2017) instead of summer of 2017?
Anyways, if this is not a hoax, I hope the T800 version would be coming some time as well.

Please see my thread XDA below - I thought I saw something a couple of weeks ago for my T805W but I am rooted so I can't check from my tablet. Perhaps someone who is not rooted can check.

Please use the QUOTE feature when replying to me to get my attention. Thanks!
I got my T800 Updated this morning. It was a France model and the version of the update is T800XXU1CRH1 dated august 2018 with august 2017 security.
The update says it was for the european GDPR law. So maybe just the euro models will be updated.
Got the update too. Confirm it says it is for GDPR. A whole update only for this? OK the security update is there, but they never bothered to keep it updated in that sense

Oh, that's disappointing. This means that these updates won't extend beyond Europe. Sammobile shows now that there is also an update for T800 (France only so far). I guess Samsung won't do a real miracle for our tablets, as in providing an up to date security patch level.
A new firmware was now also published for the T705 (TGY = Hongkong):

Thx for the info..the update is still on 6.0
Anyone know if its worth upgrading to and the noticable benefits? Thx
I have upgraded with the new TGY firmware. Security patch level is still February 2017, and I cannot see any visible changes. So I cannot report any noticable benefits yet.

Hi Akopps,
Hope everything is going well.
I wonder, Would you mind to upload your firmware for T800, I am looking for it and no luck?
Thanks a lot

Just got a prompt for an update on my 5 year Samsung sm-t800 in th UK. Its 253mb and I guess there is no improvement just a load of help files and data protection warnings in the os I guess. Does anyone know what is exactly in it..?
Heard a very strange 'ding' from my T800 (U.S WiFi only model) just now, and sure enough a new software update window was on the screen. At first I was thinking it was a 'fake' splash page since I had Chrome open, but alas it was not.
Firmware T800XAR1CRI5 @14.89MB.
Their last update was over a year and a half ago for this tablet, and it seems they are releasing an patch every year or so. (v6.01 09/2016, then patch 6.01 4/2017, and now patch 6.01 11/2018). So this original Tab S 10.5 is almost 5 years old and still getting security patches each year.
Also, I'm a bit baffled since I had 'Scheduled Software Updates' set to 'Off' and it still got it.

According to Sammobile, the Security Patch level of this firmware is only 2016-11-01. So, either this update is for something other than security patches, or Samsung does not report the patch level correctly. If the patch level is truly only at 2016-11-01 level, then this update does not address some of the famous security problems from recent times, such as the KRACK or Spectre. So I won't be pulling this firmware because my ROM is already modified, but I might use the new ROM if I decide to start from fresh setup.
Just got a notification for the US version on t-700. I'll flash in the morning. If I notice anything meaningful, I'll report back here.
Before and after, for your comparison. Kernel was updated, and SE as well. I'm guessing patching vulnerabilities there.

Even worse for me, it installed itself without my permission overnight without even a prompt. I don't have updates on just like you.
I notice the kernel version has a new date but is exactly the same version and build.
Seems strange that Samsung would push an update to such an old tablet. Hopefully they aren't trying to drum up sales for the S4 by breaking something.
Good day all! I was recently given an A8+ 2018 with a A730FXXU3BRK3 variant model. The last update was the one with November 2018 Security patch and whenever i try to check for updates online it says im on the latest. I know there's a Dec-Jan update. Help guys im lagging behind, i may not also get the Android Pie update

First thing Android pie update will takes months to get it.
They seem to do Russia first to test so be patient it going to take a while to get it.
Samsung is going to be slow on this one.
Just to clarify, does A8+ have a Dec-Jan security patch update? Because i badly need that. I've been hitting the check update option on settings and it says I'm on the latest which is November.
I'm just curious if there are any other N960W users that can confirm that they're also still on the May update on Telus. I have yet to receive the June or July update at all.
Anyone else?

i don't have your phone, however, samfirmware shows there at least being the June update available., with the security patch showing as:

If you search "baseband version" in settings, does "N960WVLU1CSE3" match with your phones version? if so you are on the latest at the moment as far as i can see.

Thank you for the reply, that baseband version matches, so I guess I am on the latest build available after all.

yeah, i had similar questions, and it seems that the security version is usualy a month or two behind the builds release date. hence the june update with may security patch.

I am on SM-N960F, international Eyxnos based version in UK which is different to your model, that said the latest build over here has the latest security update.

Hi. I am with Rogers and have the same model as you. Rogers will have an update at the end of July and I am pretty sure you will too. It will be the July update but I do not know if it will include the camera night mode which is what I really want.
BTW, I am also just on the May 1 update

since you have the snapdragon variant, then the chances of getting night mode is .1%. only exynos has gotten camera night mode so far.

The update actually just happened now on Rogers - over 700 MB - and it includes night mode.
Korean Exynos variant here (KOO), I also still have the May update only. Tried all kinds of crazy stuff to get the camera night mode and latest security update to no avail. Samsung sucks.

same here, n960n only that im in (SKC) and on april , which by the way is quite bad, you would think samsung will update those models first seeing that its for their home market but nope.
i thought maybe samsung knows we are outside korea but when i check sammobile and other web pages it doesnt show new updates.
i really didnt want to root but this might make me to root and flash a rom with latest updates, but first i have to visit samsung service center to check my camera module.
Same here, verizon update last night. Includes night mode. Also includes typo...lol
just got the update with night mode and july security - n960n.
Still on the June update. Im on sprint
Sorry for going off topic here, I see you "W" guys updated the firmware - any battery life hit on Canadian N9? I am on Koodo and still on Oreo, scared to upgrade after reading many complaints about the battery life issues.
Thanks
Just got an update from at&t 882mb
