November Play system update is for the Google Play Store, Android security update is the one that normally changes when you update via System update<Settings

It's not just you. I've got several Play system updates including one yesterday, but it's still listed as November 1. Play system updates have always seemed to lag a month or 2 behind.

Same with me to, my p6p is on Jan and my p7 is on November, they always mess something up lol

I am still on November as well. Am on the latest QPR for what it matters. Some P7 owners have gotten the Jan Services update it seems. It is crazy that my son's One Plus N200 5G has the Jan Play Services Update and our phones don't. I really wish Google would say something about it, even to confirm there is an issue or function that was not working properly or creating the hold up. Not a fan of the radio silence

Same here on both mine and my daughter's P7. Unlocked, purchased directly from Google.

I supposedly installed the Jan Play update (Settings/About Phone/Android Version/Google Play) a couple days ago. I've restarted the phone to finish the installation as the process said, but it still shows up as Nov 22 update. No update is found when I check either. Obviously we are not alone with this problem......

Pixel 7 here, still on Nov,1st Google Play update.

I've installed at least half a dozen 'updates' since November, but it still reports the November version.

I was stuck on November security patch till a few days ago; I read online that T-Mo & Google fi were holding back security updates because it caused issues with esims. So I put in an old Verizon SIM card I had laying around and I was able to get the Dec & Jan security updates that way. I didn't think to check the play update and it turns out I'm also on Nov. Will try and use the SIM swap later to see if that works.

There are two different updates. There is the Android update and Play Services update. I believe the T-Mobile issue is for Android, is it not?

Yes, 2 different updates but possibly it may affect google play update. It's just a suggestion and I haven't bothered try it. It did allow me to update the Android security patches for Dec & Jan. I didn't think to manually check for googe play service update when I had the Verizon card in.

Yep, January Play system update just showed up. 63 MB in size. Now it actually says January 1.

Mine too. Checked it last night and it said to reboot to complete update (which it's said many times before since the Nov update). However this time when I rebooted, it shows Jan 1, 2023 update which is persistent after a second reboot. I've had the phone say Jan 1, 2023 update before (in the last week) but it didn't persist through a second reboot.

Checked for an update and got this. It is about 21MB.

I just saw this now so I'm updating it now. How come my phone didn't automatically tell me about the update? I would think it would tell me as my other phones have in the past. I'm crossing my fingers this update helps my wifi issues.

IMS = IP Multimedia Subsystem
IP = Internet Protocol
SIP = Session Initiation Protocol
With setting off, SMS is sent/received over 1x circuit switched connection
With setting on SMS is supposedly sent/received over a SIP session over IP (e.g. LTE)
I got this from another thread. Did you try rebooting it again? When its registered I definitely sent and received texts much faster

This update was the Day One update that should have been installed the day you purchased the phone. It is sort of like a last minute final version of the software that should have been on the phone before you got it. Never did find out any information about what it covered.

Never updated here either
Found out that you must register the IMS on your My Verizon page. It's under features(no extra charge):laugh: For some reason you can't do it on your phone, you must do it from a computer. After registering I got the "Voice HD" or "VoLTE" updatehttp://cdn3.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Issues with Lumia 1520 and WP 10 preview

Hello everyone, hope I will get at least some answer to my issues that I am having with my Lumia 1520, otherwise, I will just throw it away and get back to Android (which I would really like to avoid).
Anyway, a while ago, as in about a year, I have jumped on Fast ring on my Lumia 1520, Wind Black edition (not network locked).
As time passed by, it was ok experience. Yes, WP had issues, and what not, but overall everything worked ok. I got my phone Dev unlocked while it was still on 8.1 but never fiddled with any interops, hacks or anything like that.
So, somewhere after they have removed Astoria subsystem, I started to experience some game breaking issues. Namely, computer doesn't detect my Nokia at all anymore. Mind you that it is not cable issue, it is not port issue, and since a friend of mine also on 1520 experienced the same issue (also on Fast ring), as well as few people online that I saw, I highly doubt it is hardware issue. As said, in one Astoria included build, I had no issues connecting phone to computer, pushing Android apps, removing them etc. Then on, I think that it was next build when Astoria was removed, but I cannot say for sure since it was long ago, and at the same time I though it was a bug in Preview version (which you can expect considering its developers build), and as said, friend also had the same issue.
So basically, when I connect my Lumia to computer(tried on few different computers, havent tried on Linux since I don't have one and heard that its not working on virtual machines), I can hear audible ping from the computer that something is attached, as well when I restart it (Vol Down+Power) I hear audible that something is removed. Phone charges fine via wall charger, as well as with USB, with notification that "Phone is charging slowly" with USB to PC cable...
However, during both cases, I don't see anything pops up in Device manager, nor gets removed after removing Lumia. Obviously, I cannot roll back to 8.1 since Recovery tool doesn't detect it either. I recall that at one point, I have tried following. Attach phone, run recovery, restart it and press Vol Down so that Exclamation mark pops in and during that time recovery detected the phone and started downloading some image. That is how I figured out which my product code is 059V743 RM-937 IT Wind Black. Figured, well, if I get pissed too much, now I know how to get recovery to detect my phone. Except with the latest build (10586.164) it no longer works. Apart from that, phone works just fine.
I have noticed when I have removed Nokia Recovery tool (had both since both were on Windows site to download), once phone was detected as Nokia Boot Mgr or something like that since I didn't paid attention and it installed the files rather quickly...
So, any info on what to try, or where to look (I did searched but nothing that I have googled worked), is much appreciated. As said, tried on different computers, different cables, some also have the same issue, so please skip those advices since I have already tried it. Phone didn't dropped single time, didn't jerk the cables and anything similar, so I doubt it is HW issue anyway.
Thanks and sorry for the long post
I will use this post to politely bump this, since I think this is the first time that I saw 0 reply threads here on XDA
Anyway, after messing around with Vol Down+Power, then Vol Up, firing Nokia recovery tool as well as Windows Device Recovery Tool (yeah I am that desperate now), WDRT detected the phone but with no info on either OS or Firmware on my Lumia. Can someone verify for me please that offered avail image on the server match my Lumia 1520 Wind Black?

Download the firmware files from here:
http://www.lumiafirmware.com/guid/059V743
Create a folder RM-937 under C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Packages\Products\ and unzip/move all the firmware files to it. You should be able to flash using WDRT. If that doesn't work then try flashing with Nokia Product Support Tool for Store.

Thanks for response Pankaj, I did downloaded that files, but had no idea where to put them. Will wait for this "final" release to be pushed, to see if anything will happen, and then give it a go and let you know.
Again, thanks for the suggestion, since I am kinda desperate, since, closest Nokia Care (I don't want to go to local services since they will come with some stupid idea that board is fried or something like that) is in like Hungary or something, which is little too far for me
Cheers
Edit: Managed to revert back to 8.1 using the guide I have posted here

Android Auto not detected after November update

I have a Nexus 5X running Android Oreo and after installing the latest November 5 security patch update, my car doesn't detect Android Auto on my phone at all. I get a message stating no Android Auto compatible phone is plugged in. It used to work without any issues whatsoever earlier.
I've tried my friend's phone which is a Pixel 2 and it works flawlessly with my car/cable. Even the Pixel 2 has Android Oreo and the November security patch update.
I've tried the following fixes:
1. Clearing data/cache of Android Auto app.
2. Uninstalling and reinstalling the Android Auto app.
3. Checking permissions of the app.
If there anything else I can try before I resort to Factory Data reset?

I don't know exactly which update it is. The security patch level is shown as November 5. I got it OTA.
It's not an update to the actual Android Auto app that is causing the problem. It appears that the problem is with the November Android security update. There are a ton of threads on the "official" Android Auto support forum that are, of course, getting no responses from anyone inside Google.
Go in and activate developer mode on the 5x. Then turn on usb debugging. Fixed my wife's 5x after the update.
Fixed mine in my 2018 Honda Civic Hatch. Was working fine then just wouldn't connect at all. Tried all above fixes, new cables, reset head unit and phone, nothing worked. Last night I remembered I am on the Google Maps beta, so I deleted that apps updates. I also found in my head units menu, a setting to restore Android Auto to default. Now it is working without any issues. I don't know which thing fixed it, but maybe someone else can try one fix at a time...

How to stop malware and spyware on the note 9

Does anyone know how to remove spyware and malware for the note 9, I am getting sick of wiping my phone ,when I know persons are hacking into my phone ,right now I know it has to be something to do with the phone serial number and bluetooth. I had to turn off low power scan and scan for near by devices. I only use bluetooth when I am in my car so when it on I got a feeling there can hack in that way, I don't leave my bluetooth on when I am not using it can anyone help me on this matter person can watch me using my phone view anything my camera see which is the front camera or the rear camera there can also view what I have open when I am using my phone.
Wtf
Is that even possible? I know that there is some software what can be written to firmware ant that way it will survive hard reset. If your phone is not rooted and you using factory firmware then is impossible for someone to access your phone remotely. If you use any software which allows for remote access to your phone, log to your account, preferably from clean pc and change your passwords and user name if possible.

Yeah that's a dozy. Though there are way to do those things he's afraid of, but I thought Google patched those up already since last August?
I'm more curious to know how the OP knows when someone is in the device accessing his/her things.??

So... Is that hacker accessing your camera every time you accidentally double-press the power button? since you don't remember it being open when you press the power button?
Although BlueBorne was a known bluetooth vulnerability, that was 2 years ago, likely patched on a recent flagship like the note 9
I think it maybe BlueBorne but my note 9 was stuck on the August security patch. Ok from the beginning I bought the phone in December waited and waited and I didn't get any updates to the phone so from December to late February I was still on August security patch bear in mine I try almost every day to manually update my the uses of setting and nothing work so I take the phone back to the store I bought it from and there give a BS story about Samsung and update it to the January security patch as I ask so I know the phone can be updated, after I got back the phone I say to myself being that the phone is an unlock phone I did my research and look for a open market that had the pie update so I did a clean wipe one with the phone and one in the recovery before I use Odin to install pie but I hanging over my head that here may be somehow there got back in after the pie update cause I know for sure for December to when I wipe the phone myself all my info was be pull from my phone , picture, video, important data, and as I said the camera being use but the app is not open put this way, if my phone was a computer and you was in the next room using screen mirror and just watch what I doing on my phone plus the ability to use file at will or even download them.

Dude chill i'm messing with you! So your hearing voices when BT is connected via car audio! What kind of car do you own ? And what what kind of bluetooth antenna is installed in your car?

It a pioneer car radio and I know of the interference you are talking about I had a Microsoft zune and that use to pick up all two way radio signals that mean if I am walking down the road and a truck pass i can hear the two way road. But what I am talking about is that the voices I am hearing are voices of persons I know I should had started with that i the bluetooth audio because you will be able to hear them better that way cause the volume is louder that the speaker on the phone and if it quite you can hear them also. Even tracking my data if I call my phone company and ask about my data for the month it doesn't match back to the Samsung data tracker nor glasswire data tracker. Trust me I not going off but if people are doing doing for year you get to pick up on little thing your phone is doing that you yourself is not doing to the phone.

You can still add you input besides that picture
I personally dont think anyone is spying on you. In any case, just wipe your phone and reinstall. If you have backups go through each app and make sure theres no rouge apps.
If you dont want to go through the long process go into apps then into permissions. Disable unwanted permission like camera, microphone on apps that shouldnt need those permissions.
You should really install apps through playstore or apk pure. Apps with mods and cracks are the ones you should stay clear.
We live in a super connected planet interference can happen so easily! Not sure what network provider you are with ? Some network providers suck others are awesome! All depends who you with ??
Also your data not matching up, can be easily be mismatched as servers not updating or your data is on the sever but server only updates once a week or a month to save cost there to many factors involved to say this is the issue
Plus you did say you have reset your Note 9! So how can he really keep track of how much data you have used ?
Mr Ted Harris you are not being hacked or being spied just take a deep breath and relax!

I have three different ways of tracking my data glasswire my network provider and the Samsung way, the thing is in January I get a text message from the provider saying I use up 95% of my data I was at a loss cause if i have a 8gb plan a month and what is not use roll over to the next month and any large download I do on wifi even to update my app I do on wifi, I don't use YouTube on my data for sure Facebook can't be pulling that much data or Instagram, the network provider can't be wrong as as I am typing I have use 1.8gb out of 8gb for the month so for and not putting in to account what I had roll over from February cause glasswire nor Samsung registers what is roll over, just making a example.

Yes I understand about disabling unwanted permissions but as reinstalling app goes you have two options Google or Samsung, Google reinstalling everything you had on your phone even if you downloaded it for apkpure once it can come from the play store, so if a app the say not available in this region and you use apkpure to download it, it will be redownload back for the play store, where as Samsung reinstalling all apps even if there come for the play store or Galaxy store, can it be possible I am redownload the spyware or malware from Samsung cloud as I am restoring my app, in the picture I what I have installed on my phone at the moment only thing I don't normally use is the Norton app.

Bypass Communication Error 8 : GPS Time in wrong epoch

During the last daylight savings time update, my 2020 Subaru Legacy got messed up and jumped a GPS Epoch, the car now thinks its the year 2040.
This throws a Communication Error 8 whenever I try to use Android Auto, manually setting the time does not work.
Reading Subaru forums, it seems that only replacing the cars central computing unit can reset this time, but that theres a several month delay getting the parts due to chip shortages. But with Covid ending I got a lot of driving to do this summer.
I have a Pixel 2XL thats rooted with Magisk and was wondering if there was any way to bypass this error and get AA working?

Swap the central computer is the only fix they know, when they get the part, which might be months. According to others its happened to, that fixed the issue, but at least one person had it come back later...so clearly an issue in their software. But not very optimistic i'll get it fixed anytime this summer...so thought there might be something i could do to trick it into thinking its the right time set via a magisk module or root app or something.
Have they tried to re-flash your Subie?
Here are my technician notes from the dealership:
per techline- this is a known issue, engineers are working on software update to correct concern but not available yet with no known timeframe for availability. for customer satisfaction ordered new cockpit control unit to correct issue. techline states- replacement CCU will correct concern, but does not know how long until concern returns, may not return. also stated, android auto compares time stamps from cellphone network to time stamps with gps network from car, if finds correlation issue will not pair phone. CCU on order/will call customer when it arrives
Got a replacement CCU, Android Auto working again.
