Two days before the Google I/O I started noticing a new "Report" button whenever a Application would force closed. At first I thought it was a new feature of bTunes app until my phone died the same night. After waking up the launcher 2 crashed at boot and the report button was there again. Now thinking this was just some sort of odd temporary feature I just ignored it.
When the Google I/O keynote announced one of the new features would be Application Error Reports, I quickly realized my phone had a Froyo feature. Now the question remain, was this a silent update? Am I the only with 2.1 and this reporting feature? Also all numbers appear the same 2.1 update 1, same base band and kernel number. Thoughts?

I noticed the same thing just today and hadn't ever seen it before.
I wonder if this is some sort of sign that the Market has changed something, rather than a change in our phone's OS?

I actually had messenger crash shortly after the keynote and the report feature was there. I had never seen it before - unsure when it started appearing (running stock 2.1)
Same here, saw it about 2 days ago, but assumed it was part of the app that crashed. While watching the keynote speech I noticed a familiar feature, but after seeing these posts I went back to check, and it is definetly one and the same.
I have been a little supicious last few days, as I had received an out of mem notification while at work, when I hadn't been using my phone. Checking net counter it seemed I had downloaded several MB that I was unaware of.
Are google slowing trickling down froyo to us on the sly?
Has happened to me too, I now get that button whenever something crashes, and just about the same time this change happened my Genie Widget stopped working and I can no longer use it
I think that was built into 2.1.1 I've been seeing that for a while.

I've had this for about 2 days now. I didn't think anything of it at first, and I though it was part of the app itself. Looks like they did do a silent update. Since everyone here's got it, looks like they're going to be quite swift with the whole thing.
I think it is a silent update because I'm rooted on cyanogen and I havent got it. Unless you guys are rooted too

I'm rooted but on stock, I can't tell exactly when it happened, but it was at least 3 days ago.
Nah, Im on CM and have had this for some days and I (supposedly) can not recieve ota of any kind from Google so that would imply it was part of an application update.
I have Enomther's 1.9.2 and I have the report feature
hmmm any specific apps? I haven't had it yet
Yes I've been seeing this too and only in the last week. I just thought certain apps were doing it that had never crashed before.
Could it possibly have been an update to the SDK? So applications compiled since the SDK update have the feature?
maybe we're all having FroYo madness and we're imagining all this because we're getting so crazy from waiting lol jk jk
Maybe it's just part of the market app and it updated itself.
I couldn't reproduce this because I got no app to crash (and i think that's a very nice fact )
May I add: My stock AWS Nexus One has been on a shelf for many weeks since I got my Milestone, while I wait for Canada's first AWS carrier to launch. When I turned it on this weekend SIM-free, it connected to wi-fi and within a few minutes I got a notification of 30something app updates from the Market. I cleared the notification.
But the odd thing was, a few minutes later. I got a little notification "Lookout is scanning Market...", "Scan finished: Market is safe." This is from the Lookout security program and it normally happens every time an app is installed. So it looks like Android silently updated Market in the background and Lookout just happened to catch it and tell me about it.
So... I too suspect this is an updated feature of the Market.
I had believed it is the updates to market and attentant updates to apps that have the new feature enabled.
I've had it happen quite a few times I thought it was a rouge app or something. I started uninstalling stuff. I had it on a couple of apps.
I think the market app got updated
the report feature came up when something force closed yesterday....it was speedtest I think.
anyone else having trouble getting in to fb news feed? ever since yesterday its giving me "an error occured while fetching data [null]"
Not had a problem but wondered what version of Facebook you are using cos I had heard some people had problems after a recent update with 'Facebook for Android'.
If you uninstall it, I think it leaves you with the stock one that came with the phone which seems to work ok.

thats the one im using the one that came with the phone, and its only on the news feed everything else seems to be working fine.
Only problem I am having of late with it is that after reading the first set of statuses and go to click on Older Posts, it won't show me any more as the last two on the list (of the first set) are dates as Jan 1st even though they were posted today.
This is automated; it runs on my server. It doesn't rely on manual updates, so it should be pretty quick (the script checks every 10 minutes). Let me know if you have any issues with it. I have a channel for each Nexus device if you have others; check my signature for the full list.
Enjoy!
Great idea, very useful.. Thanks
Very useful indeed, Thanks.
Thanks!

Could you make one for OTA files? I still have a locked boot loader and don't have time to spend resetting the phone again for the sake of flashing an update :/
Interesting. I have a 6 I purchased with my activation of Fi. My build number isn't listed on that Android page. I've got Build LVY47H
Very nice. No longer need to spam refresh the image page

Unfortunately not. The reason the script can be automated is because the factory images page has a set format that I can compare against--essentially, the script determines if any of the individual device tables on the factory images page has changed, then it grabs the new version text from the table and pushes to the appropriate device. There's no official source for OTA builds, and even though they're hosted on Google's servers they have randomly-generated URLs so I can't programmatically check for them. The best solution would probably be to subscribe to the factory image update channel, then check XDA every so often after a new build comes out to wait for someone to post the OTA update itself. Sorry about that!

Yeah, I saw this post yesterday then looked around for that build. Looks like it's a special build that's only on devices directly purchased from Fi at the moment. If it ever gets added to the Nexus 6 list on the factory images page it'll pop up on the channel, but if Nexus 6 Fi devices have their own set of factory images I'll have to add a separate channel for them, which is no big deal. Nothing I can do at the moment though unless/until Google changes something on their end.
As a sidenote, is your device codename shamu like a normal Nexus 6? If you don't know for sure, you can check by going to Settings --> About phone, then tap "Send feedback about this device", then tap the small "system information" link. Scroll down in that window a little bit and it's under the heading "Device".
Thanks for the detailed explanation, I hope that the OTA comes soon... Then again, I'm probably due a spring clean factory reset of the phone anyways ... I just don't want to, it takes up about half a day to configure! (I'm no longer a rooter and modder)
Is it still working? Can't see the MMB29K being posted there.
thank you

This looks like a great idea, but I don't see any updates newer than last October. Is this dead or do you not consider the security update releases as factory images? I installed the MMB29S image in early January.

Sorry, Google changed the format of the page and I'll be honest, I completely forgot about this script since it was self-sufficient for a long time. I'm working to update the script, should be fixed tomorrow.

I just got the new pushes and all is well with the world again. Thanks!
Just curious if you don't mind me asking, but what script are you running on your server that queries Google's site and how did you get that connected to your Pushbullet channel? I'm thinking of doing something similar elsewhere but I don't know where to start since I'm so new to scripting.
Great job, using it for a few months and it works really well, is it possible to have a channel for Android N preview?
Great job, man! :good:
But... it didn't work with the last update of yesterday, October-03, at least for the Nexus 5 & Nexus 6 channels...
Maybe it's due to a change in the Factory Images page, with that new "Acknowledge" button next to the text "I have read and agree with the above terms and conditions"?
The title says it all. Am I the only one that lost the the changelog pulldown on the update screen in the playstore? I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere. It was one of the best additions with true time saving functionality to the playstore IMHO. I haven't had it in some time. Deep down I was hoping that it would magically reappear.

If you mean the "recently updated" section? it is still there for me. You may want to update your Store app, the new one has "play protect" and I don't see that on your screenshot. My version (not beta) v8.1.73.S-all [0] [FP] 165518514
EDIT: just noticed in your sig you are still on 7.1.1? ha ha I also have the N7 Flo, running LOS 14.1 current weekly.
Thanks for the reply. And yes I haven't updated since i got received a new phone from huawei due to the bootloop of death.... I figured I would wait for the bugs to get worked out of oreo and start there! My playstore app is current at 8.1.73. The picture is dated but it shows the pull down dialog that I am asking about. It allows you to see the changelog without having to open up the individual app page. Please don't criticize my excellent MS paint skills.....

LOL. 8.0 is the bug fix for 7.1.2. Smooth sailing here with 8 on several devices. Did not really appreciate what you were talking about before, but then I have never pre-inspected the changelog.... just auto update everything without looking first. If one app is of interest I read the changelog as its downloading, but that's rare. If I were you I would install 8.0 and not look back.... after all why did you buy a Nexus device, if not for anything but security updates which this month in particular is very important in light of the wireless 'BlueBorne' attacks. Best of luck to you.
Here, as usual for the "vendor" package.
For the full ROM upgrade you have to go to the proper support website.
Not for EU variant?
Thank you very much for the info an download - any news on the changelog?
here is some info:

Did you guys try it? I saw a few screenshots somewhere that there are some new AOD styles, is that true? As the ones that are available now are very bland (made them like they don't care) that would be a huge deal for me.

Hey ! I downloaded update from Indian site and my phone is global (europe). As far as I see there's much more clock styles for AOD. Screenshots in attachment.

As I see those are the same as they are present now. Is the new update Realme UI 2.0, or is that reserved for Android 11?

The linked stuff os just the firmware, the so called "vendor blob".
For the full ROM update you have to reach out Realme's support site, something like this and select "realme X2 pro".

Yeah I'm just waiting for the release on EU website as I've always done, just feel more confident that way. I'm just curious, I can't find the website again which showed the new AOD style, so you guys don't see new stuff?
is global version de eu version?
how do i know which i have.
I also receive the OTA but I can't find it on the realme support page, it still show the .32
Little question, I'm currently rooted. Can I installe the OTA via the Realme updater without issue ? (except the loss of root, but I don't care)
I've noticed an issue with the dialer. When calling someone there is no dialer tone so I don't know if it's actually ringing until the other person answers. Did anyone else notice this issue after updating to c.33?

Hello.
I've made the C33 update too but I don't have the behavior you're describing.
I tried calling multiple phone numbers I have at the office (mobile and fix) and each time I was hearing the usual tone before people pick up the line.
By my side, I have noticed another strange issue, but I don't know if it's due to the C33 update or if it's is due to something coming from my unit only.
After finishing the update process, the phone restarts normally but at the beginning I have a pop-up message asking me if I want to activate location services.
Each time I reboot my device, this pop-up message does show and I have to accept it even if the location services hasn't been switched OFF before reboot.
This pop-up message doesn't show if I make a restart instead of a reboot.
However, the more annoying thing is that the GNSS services aren't working as before whatever a restart or reboot is done.
If I use a GPS test application, I usually can see the number of sats and all the relevant details they give (NMEA messaged, etc...).
But since C33 update, I can see these information only for a minute or a few more, then they stop being refreshed and no other information are available than the position and speed.
It doesn't affect navigation, but I have some personal tracking project and these information were essential for my needs.
Can someone make a test with its X2 Pro and tell me if this issue does only concern my phone and not the C33 update?

I have exactly the same symptoms. GPS tool works after reboot for three minutes. Then all satellites are gone. See second screenshot. Navigation keeps working and is accurate. I do not have a "enable location pop-up" after each reboot.
I have X2pro 12/256 global with C33.

I do not get this message when rebooting, but I do have the same with the GPS test app (tried 2). It does give my right location also when moving around so the GPS does work correctly.
Thank you people for the quick feedback.
I don't know if it is possible to apply C32 *.ozip package after a C33 update to recheck if the behavior was also present in previous firmware release.
I tried looking for some answers about firmware version reverts, but I can only find downgrade process to go back to Android 9, and it isn't what I want to do.
I know this type of NMEA informations isn't relevant for everybody, but in my case this issue has a huge impact on a bench metrology system I'm using and using my phone as a GNSS Location tracker is a very handy solution.
It was properly working in July then I had to debug other matters before using back this function again in November.
If I was aware this update will affect my phone, I will probably not apply it...
I didn't notice any issues while using Google Maps, nor did I see any warning messages, but I've noticed the same thing using the gps test app.
