It means you are the first person to report receiving this update... or you changed the build prop. Either way I have no clue.

Why is it whenever i try to share with the community any new update , people seems not to believe me. I am not a developer , so how can i change the build of my phone. The only thing am good in is to use odin to install firmware on my phone . But this new update am short of word myself.

Was it anothe OTA update?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

Yes of course , I got it this morning as soon as i switch on my phone

Has any body else got any of these updates?
I have just tried going menu/settings/about/software updates/check for updates/ but it returns with "no update available". If that was not how you got the OTA update please give the exact steps you did so others can try this out. I am in the UK on O2 running stock KF3.
If nobody else is getting these updates then my _guess_ is that you are some how getting test updates reserved for Samsung staff.
And no I don't have any inside info into thier numbering system.

Yep one person only the whole wide world gets the update . Something wrong if it was a proper OTA update many more would be posting .

I agree, i believe the OP is telling lies
plain and simple..
intratech in his post# (in this thread itself) has shown that he has captured baseband version I9100KH3 but i am sure OTA is not the way right now to get this update
The OP has been flashing firmwares here and there and claiming he is getting it from OTA.... white lies black lies...all lies

It is possible that the OP is some how getting test updates reserved for Samsung staff and for Samsung testing. Samsung are not intending that these OTA updates go to his phone.

I went to the samsung website and the latest firmware download is Kies_2.0.2.11071_128.exe dated the 24th of August 2011.
I am not at home to install and test this out.

possible...and weird

Maybe my phone is mainly build for samsung update eventhough i am not samsung memeber of staff. All what i know is i have got the update via OTA this morning . I have not hacked or do anything to my phone .

I believe the update is a Samsung problem as KH3 is replaced by KH5 that was a single user OTA update .
Plus OTA has never worked for most users .
jje

This all sounds way too odd for me.
Firstly, the OP gets KH5 then suddenly he gets a DUMMY firmware OTA.
Either something is wrong with Samsung OTA updating for this device or its all a crock of s**t.
No one else had anything like this so my advise is perform a system dump and give someone that knows their stuff to look at it like a developer...PM them perhaps?
If not, I dont believe it.

Telus XT1097 5.1 OTA/Update

Hello All,
Today - - July 20th, according to schedule posted on Telus website, is supposed to be the start of the official 5.1 OTA roll-out for our XT1097 RETCA phones.
I am not yet seeing it pushed on my end but eagerly awaiting to test it out. I thought I would start a little thread here so people can post their results, upgrade experience, overall performance etc. [MODS: if this thread is deemed repetitive or unnecessary, please let me know]
cheers,
gs

Me too! I think initially the date was July 17th. (someone on Twitter had received a reply from TELUS stating that date).

Can't wait ! still no update

Please make sure you pull it out so we can enjoy this build ! Also curious to see if any radio improvements were made.

Will be seen here if and when !

Thanks bertiespeed! Good link to have, I was wondering how active those Moto subforums are but it seems like a reliable place. So eager for this to land on my phone. I flashed the stock brazilian 5.1. firmware just to see the overall feel of stock 5.1 compared to 5.0 >> NIGHT and DAY. Huge difference.... looking forward to the RETCA version. I will post back here as soon as I get the OTA notification, for the moment back to NX rom :good:

Update 7/20/2015: Select users on Retail Wind and Telus (22.121.11.victara_retca.retca.en.CA) and Retail China (22.31.18.victara_retcn.retcn.en.CN) can download and install Android 5.1

Hi all.
This was just posted on the Official Lollipop moto forum:
Update 7/24/2015: All users on Retail Wind and Telus (22.121.11.victara_retca.retca.en.CA) can download and install Android 5.1.
I am unfortunately on the road and cant do anything till after the weekend. If any of you here using the Telus XT1097 RETCA get the OTA please let us know here....

Update just showed up on my phone, away all wethough though

Never received the notification. did manual and it came up. installed and running fine .. So far so good

Just received the "5.1 Notification"! I'm on Telus Mobility.
I'm downloading it right now!
Will report a little later on.....

Does anyone have a link to the full firmware? I have 1095 firmware right now and would like to get 1097.

Anyone have full firmware？

I've been searching for 23.16.1.victara_retca.retca.en.CA full firmware to keep as backup, I still haven't found it. I prefer flashing full firmware using fastboot, rather than doing a system backup/restore using a custom recovery.

Full RSD XML firmware now available for RETCA XT1097

Thank you for that, I will try to download it, but I'm not hopeful, downloading a GB from Filefactory could take from 3 to 6 hours, if it ever finishes. Motofirmware still doesn't have it.
OK, downloaded, and flashed all files, no problems (I was on CyanogenMod).

Marshmallow update rollout with unlocked bootloader

Hi all,
Hopefully I am asking in the right place here - it is my first question regarding the Moto X Style.
I got my phone at the end of last week. I decided to unlock the bootloader right from the off as it requires a full wipe. I see that people are seeing the Marshmallow update rolling out in Europe. My question is two fold really.
Firstly, should I receive the OTA update with an unlocked bootloader? Based on what I have read, it looks to me like I should get the update.
Secondly, what "decides" if the update is available to a given phone? When I check for a software update I get the message that the phone is up to date. I'm happy to wait a while but I am also curious how the update rolls out.
Just for extra info, the phone reports as an "XT1572" and the system version says "23.21.18.clark_reteu.reteu.en.EU reteu"
Thanks for any pointers

Thanks for that, I had seen and I will use the sideload method if I don't see the OTA update soon.
My curiosity is more about the mechanics of the OTA method and why my phone does not see an update when I tell it to go and check vs others already seeing it.

My device is a retfr and didn't receive the update while other users had it, so I just sideloaded it. The update seems to be universal for all eu devices.

Usually the rollouts are sent on batches and not all at once. I'm not sure if the criteria they use.

MOB30D build mirror

For reasons that haven't been specified yet, the builds labeled MOB30D have been removed from the Nexus Factory Image page.
I uploaded it on the mirror, so, you can download if you want flash it. [Nexus 7 (2013) Wi-Fi]
https://mega.nz/#!15kGUSYA!6mKmEy1oZldroLtBDgOepWBt25xTqeVc7jC9TJ1Efyg

Weird they pulled it. Whats up with that. I didn't flash it. Notice any problems or super-secret files left in there?

I haven't flashed it either. I assume the found a bug.

I flashed it but I not noticed any issues so far

I still haven't flashed it but have been listening to some Mobb Deep. MOB30D!

Anyone having issues with this release? Debating whether or not to flash my unit. I notice that the Nexus 7 WiFi has binary files available with a MMB29X release.
This is interesting....found this link on Sprint's website: https://community.sprint.com/baw/message/1038775
Almost seems like MMB30D was suppose to have been the mid-March security release.
Features/Enhancements:
•Revision of March Android Security Update to include new fixes
For those who flashed this MMB30D onto the Nexus 7, what is the date in ABOUT PHONE. Is it April 1 or April 2?

The last image for the Nexus 7 2013 razor that I see is still MMB29V.
So much for Google being responsive in getting security updates out. I would have thought that after making a big deal out of that mid-March kernel fiasco that they would have fixed and re-released the images for the three devices that they pulled for whatever reason on Monday. It's now the weekend and no explanation or update from Google. Why am I not surprised?

On site, it still not displayed.

All direct links stopped working after ~20 minutes after hiding from site.
And today they start working again, but still not displayed in the list.

I just factory defaulted my Nexus 7 (2013) device and installed this new factory image (MOD30D). Once I logged into my Google account, I got an email that I successfully logged into a Nexus 7 (2102).......2012??? WTF?
I wonder if there is/was an issue with the image's fingerprint where it would think that the 2013 model is actually a 2012 model.

These builds are uploaded again to nexus pages. And include a lots of bug fixes.

Just flashed new image with WUG, rerooted, flashed Xposed and ElementalX

I'm confused. I flashed MOB30D when Google first posted it, but then took it down. Now MOB30D is back up. Do I need to re-lash it?

These monthly updates while obviously a good thing, there also kind of a pain in the ass. Every month I have to flash the new image, re-root the phone, use Titanium Backup, to go in and delete enough from sys partition, to flash Xposed, followed by flashing my beloved ElementalX kernel. Unless there is some way to streamline all that, a noob like me isn't aware of. Presumably we got just a couple weeks till the May security update anyway. I'll wait.

Use WUG no wipe option, then root with WUG. Not all that difficult.

January 2, 2017 Software Update

This morning, my Note received a rather large software update that installed without many problems. Most likely certain security updates, but I was surprised to receive it as we are not really "accustomed" to any attention from Samsung for this tablet. Any further comments from anybody else?

I got the same.

Sorry for the misspelling. I meant to say "without any problems" not "without many problems". In fact, the whole update process was smooth and fast. Everything works fine. I understand, however, that everyone's setup is different and my experience should not be the absolute rule.

Nothing here on my device. Although it might be because I'm in Sweden.

Did anyone see any changes? I dont see/feel anything other than the version number change even the security patch level date remained the same. Is there a changelog somewhere

My tablet updated and now the OS boots super slow and then does a soft shutdown and reboots a second time. It takes more than 60 secs to get to the home screen. Anyone know how to uninstall this update?

I've seen this post for a few days but not had time to respond till now.
I've got an SM-P605v. Haven't seen, or been able to download the update you've mentioned. This may be because I don't use Verizon as my connectivity partner, or it may be that my particular tablet's OS doesn't need the security updates that yours did.

I also have a SM-P605V but have Verizon as my carrier. I got the notification to update today. I don't see anything on VZW site about it nor under the specific SKU on SamMobile (still has 10/15/15 as the last official update). When looking at the SM-P605 model, there are some in the list (even today's date), though they are for non-USA countries.
Even so, it looks like they are still all Android 5.1.1, so it's likely just some minor tweaks. To my understanding, you would need to pop in an activated Verizon SIM to get the update for your specific tablet, as Verizon is the one that issues it. You can also wait until it's posted on SamMobile and manually do it. https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-P605V/

You should be able to flash this now that Sammobile posted it... https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-P605V/

I got this a couple of days ago - managed to odin flash after I put the wrong file and got the boot loader triangle a day before.
Its extremely stable and the tablets working like a dream - the only issue is no root.
Edit: I noticed a great improvement in battery management and it will charge to 100% from 30% in 4 hours before I flashed the 5.1.1 rom it took nearly 8 hours with a new(second hand) USB Flex connector and nearly 20 hours with the old usb flex connector to go from 30% to 100%.
I really like this tablet - it reminds me so much of my SM-N910F note 4.

You can root the latest firmware and also install twrp. I have a 600.

Probably just a security update

Please excuse my silly question but I have P600 with 5.1.1 and never rooted. Do I need to install twrp before I update or it doesn't matter? Updates always make me uneasy with locking bootloader or needing new root methods.

If you just want to update then flash with Odin and the appropriate file. Try looking at sammobile.com for the appropriate rom file.
If you want root then you will need to install a custom recovery using CF auto or Twerp - the latter will NOT work on the SM-605v version as the bootloader is locked and will result in the yellow triangle and stating that the tablet has a strange recovery and that you should see a verizon technician. By installing the recovery you can then update the system or even try out new roms created by the people of this wonderful community.
Rooting will potentially stop business application with built in security from working - i.e. HSBC application, Virgin Media app and Sky Movies apps will not work on rooted phones to name a few.

I updated and rooted and everything is working ok. I had trouble with 64gb Sandisk microsd with "sd card unexpectedly removed" error. Then it mount itself back. Sometime it shows empty and asks to format and sometime it works. Also the lockscreen flicker and that usually when the card error happened. I suspect they are related and it happens only when waking up the device. The card works fine with all my other devices including my note 4 on stock 5.1.1. I'm not sure what caused it because I just used this sd card with the note 10.1 and then updated and rooted all in the same day.
Anyway, I removed the Sandisk and now I'm using 32gb Samsung and it only happened once for maybe 12 hours (could have been 100 times with Sandisk). Also, I don't notice the lockscreen flickering anymore. I will see if this problem comes back or it just that Sandisk doesn't play well my note. I have seen many people here reported similar problem with other Samsung devices for too many reasons. I don't believe file format is the issue but I'm using exFAT.
