Too small for marshmallow. It's the new stagefright patch.

I will gladly share, as soon as it gets pushed to US devices, seems it's going everywhere else.

Yes, US has been the very last region to update both times, so far, and I expect it will be again this time, too. The second update didn't take long at all to get to every US user, though, once the US update pushed. By the time I got my notification everyone else already had it and the update URL was all but pointless. I'm not really all that concerned with getting this one, but man I hope that 6.0 update hits every region fast. We're building a larger user base now, though, so maybe we'll get lucky and XDA members from each region will be among the early people to get the push notification.

For whatever reason, they start the soak tests later here than other places also. I don't think they've even started the soak tests here yet.

You should ask this to rom developer in the rom thread that you are running.
This is due to the fact that the custom OS, that you are running does get the latest Note 7 updates and the last one more or less cripples the device. Making it useless as a phone.

That's cause your on a note 7 port rom. And your device is being recognized as a note 7 because your build.prop is showing it as one.
I got that message to when i was testing nemesis n7 port, the other day. Plus it was being pushed from the Samsung+ app for me. Does your rom have that app installed?
The big question is, even though we have different hardware, if samsung can't decifer the difference and they try to push software to our device. Will it [email protected]*k up our device? Or will our different hardware provide a safegaurd against this?
I don't know their limitations for forcing software onto our device, since it's not really a N7. Maybe someone with some better knowledge or coding skills can chime in on this.
Hmm....on an interesting note. I received this message on my T-Mobile Note 4 while running LamlazyROM V5.0. I went ahead and flashed Norma v11 and Aurora 4.1 in order to replicate this particular message. To my surprise. None came up. Not even the Note 5/Note7 ROM Port showed this anomalous message. Now the billion dollar question is, just as another member commented, "Will this update brick my Note 4?" In all honesty, I've tried on several occasions to try to run the Software Update feature that's been baked into the ROM and with every attempt I would get a Forced Closed/App Crash notification window. So yeah maybe it is possible but unfortunately we'll have to wait and see what happens. Yay. I guess.

It certainly will. The note7 runs off completely different firmware which is included in the ota. Never update through ota on a ported rom.
I'm on Wi-Fi and fully charged. It says there is an update and that i can download it on Wi-Fi. But there's no way to make it start the download and it's not prompting me. Any tips?
EDIT: Nevermind.... I realized it is just easier to fool the phone by changing the time. Apparently LG does not understand what the words "any time" mean. Stupid idiotic that it will only update after 11pm. But I have the update now by tricking the phone.
What sort of black magic is this?!
LOL, good to know for others who might be stuck in the same boat. :thumbsup:

It was on a 2016 firmware, unfortunately I don't remember (terrible I know)... I have T-Mobile and it's completely stock currently. I may have to root in the future to debloat since all of the bloat has the "disable" button greyed out.
Seems resolved now that I changed the time to trick it to update.

Ok I'm really confused because its almost December and I'm still on the April update. I have confirmed that there have been a spetember and october update but I still didn't get them. Does anyone know how to get the latest security patch
Just wondering if any people who received the TUF email from Huawei has gotten their OTA yet. I understand that it's a staggered roll out but just want a general feel of how fast it's moving. Also I haven't seen anyone mention actually receiving their US OTA.
Edit: I'm specifically talking about BND-L24
I got the ota around noon today, cst.

I'm curious. If you were able to to a factory reset, make a complete backup using the TWRP run method (not the install method), save the resulting files in a zip on a Google Drive, and share the link - would I (and people like me with the L24 and TWRP installed) be able to use that to "restore" from TWRP?
East coast here, nothing yet. If you go to the Honor's 7x FB page they said that even if you didn't get an email from the FUT trial and filled the form, you should be able to get the OTA. Checking the settings>system update.
I did this and nothing yet.
Curious.
I wonder why we wouldn't get the OTA.
I have bootloader unlocked, TWRP installed, and, therefore, am on the B101 build, not B130. Do you think that might have something to do with it?

if your bootloader isn't locked with the oem recovery, you will be unable to get a ota update from huaweii

So... I know that means I can't install it, but does that imply I shouldn't be able to see it in when I check for updates, too?
Guess this is a REALLY staged rollout lol
This beta OTA is a staged roll-out. Everyone that had been approved for the beta will receive the OTA by March 20th.

Still don't understand the difference in the way it has been stated... Most posts said "everyone who applied".... Well, I did, but didn't get an email and have seen nothing either. Very frustrating.

I second this question. Been asking around different threads for any TWRP backups for either the US Honor 7x or the Mate SE. Not sure if that's allowed or anything but if it's not, I apologize. Just really desperate.

Well don't worry, I applied and got the email saying I would have it by friday.........accept nothing has come thru, tried all the methods they said. Nothing. So it's definitely not been pushed to US or other regions yet or we would have seen it on here by now. Huawei hasn't done what they said so don't worry, it has not been pushed yet. I actually have the mate 10 lite for 275 and it seems very similar but they are vastly different in hardware. 4 gb/ 64 ROM, I know the se mate does too, but I had all three lined up and the screen on the mate 10 lite is at least 200 nits higher when I measured it vs any of the others, same with the mate p smart which btw comes with OREO already baked in when you buy and it's only 235 and has the good screen of the mate 10 lite, and OREO already in it.

Don't know what your talking about with it's not getting pushed to the US, literally the first person to respond said he got his from CTS zone. Still very disappointed though that it's the end of Saturday and east coast still hasn't gotten it yet.
I ordered an essential phone on eBay, which came in today. It functions. However it's stuck on 7.1.1. I contacted Essential and they told me what I have is a Sprint demo model. I run a few errands hardware tests and it seems it does have the sd835 (it says msm8998?) and correct ram and memory, supposedly. It said something like only 407dpi and a slightly lower resolution display. I contacted the seller and he told me that Essential says this to like 20 of his customers and that I can manually download and install the update. I'm hesitant to try that in case of hardware discrepancies. The bootloader says "Mata" for codename etc. Any thoughts on this???
I have the chance to return it. Is it worth it to return it and get another one? I want the correct specs as a normal ph1.

Mata is the codename for this phone. If you goto about phone and it is hardware revision 1.8 then you have the same hardware as the rest of us and should just download one of the "back to stock" fastboot packages on this forum and call it a day.

Thank you for the info I do have 1.8. What is the significants of that? Will I get OTA's now that I manually was able to update to 9.0?
I fastboot installed 9.0. rebooted and had no touch screen. So I installed through adb sideline the same version and it seems to be working now.

If Sprint is anything like Telus (my carrier) you will get ota updates but it could be days or weeks after essential releases them. I do all my updates manually.

What is the variant in the bootloader? It must be unlocked, so in that case, you should get OTA updates as they are released.
It does say unlocked but it would not receive OTAs, I spent a good couple hours trying and troubleshooting. I contacted Essential and that's when they told me it's probably a Sprint demo. I just unlocked the bootloader and updated everything manually then relocked the bootloader.
You could flash last months 9.0 release, use it like that for a bit and see what happens. Would be the fastest way to determine whether it will update now or not. Also you should leave the bootloader unlocked, from what I've seen on this forum relocking the bootloader has been the cause of 99% of bricking for this phone.
Thanks for the info. I may try the recent prior update thing, if not I guess I can always manually flash.
Anyone else end up with a "demo" model (according to Essential)? What's your experience with it?

You get no support and they will not take it for out of warranty repair.

Bumping this because I booted into my bootloader and it says "Variant - ". It's blank.

Was it always like this?
Personally as soon as Essential told you it's likely to be a Demo model I would have returned it to the seller immediately. That's just a recipe for disaster/headaches.
