Well spotted, we will all be getting sore fingers tapping that update button

Nice.... Looking forward to getting this beauty on my 7!

I have a rooted Honor 7 with twrp. Do I need to get rid of these to do the update and if so could anyone help a fella out on how to do it please?

You'll probably have to reflash stock recovery back on with Multi Tool and then hopefully it'll update manually via the dload folder method.

Thank you for your reply. I've downloaded multitool & all drivers etc but haven't a clue what to do. I tried installing stock rom (I think) says complete but my phone it took about 2 seconds and looks the same.. Am I doing something wrong? Which rom should I choose? Sorry...

already got it....it has Google Now on tap

do you got it via ota? have you got that zip file? in those firmware folders on you phone..

Hyderabad is in India........

Just formatted my phone and when i've turned it on an OTA update popped up: B313. Do I want it? Is it latest version? Anyone else had it?

B313 is reported as beta version as you will find here. It´s odd you got the OTA notice for a beta.
I would wait some more days for the final MM6.0 release.

Hi what is the change log like. Does voice wake up to find phone and handsfree calls work?

He propably just got the 320, the second version of the beta.

Indeed, or a OTA bug, like in many other occasions.

I got B330, I am not sure if that is a beta or the full version

PB1 Update Rolling Out?

Did anyone get a notification for an update today? The version is "PB1" (LRX21T.G900VVRU2BPB1). It appears to just be a security patch. https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/galaxy-s5-update/ Assuming someone will dump it out, root it, and we'll be able to flash with FlashFire? I've pre-ordered a S7 so I don't know if I'll even try before I ditch this phone.

I'll give it a shot, assuming I can trigger the update.
---------- Post added at 06:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:01 PM ----------
Update has been downloaded. Now lets see if I can pull it.

I'm currently pulling/uploading the update.zip for @muniz_ri or @jrkruse to look at for us.
Hopefully it can be rooted using the new root method and they can make a ROM or 2 for us.

I'm just waiting on the Odin tar so you can make us a lovely version with the OD5 bootloader in it

Does anyone know if it is 5.1? I was just chatting with Samsung they said it was but I updated and it showed it was still 5.0... So did my phone not fully install it or what?

Someone confirm, this appears to update the bootloader and break our root method
EDIT: All is good

I tried multiple times to update to this ROM today, and I failed multiple times lol. I've tried enough for today. I might try again tomorrow.

Still good ol' 5.0. Change list is the same as well. Just a security update from what I gather.

just update with flashfire via http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65593555&postcount=724 using the same keeproot method? Also, I've never been able to use xposed. Do I have to have deodexed for that?

Actually, I doubt you are going to see 5.1 as Samsung is releasing 6.0 for the S5 in May.

I have been getting a notice to install this update and I have been ignoring it because I am afraid it will stop me from being able to activate a Wi-Fi hotspot through PdaNet/foxfi. Has anyone installed this update who uses PdaNet/Foxfi as a hotspot? If so does it still work?

Several weeks, maybe a month ago one of the android news sites listed the Samsung timetable for the phones that would get it. It wasn't carrier specific but rather device specific and the S5 is slated for a May release from Sammy according the article I read.

I just completed updating. It is 99% sense 8. The only difference I'm seeing is that the quick setting shade retains the same shade of grey.
Good news: navbar icons are aosp-like now, double tap to quick switch between apps work, multiwindow works and you can change the dpi in settings like in aosp nougat. Also, the default theme closely resembles the htc10's (same wallpaper?).

So I've got a ViperOneM9 5.3.0 rom and I can't get the OTA...can I flash it manually?

Yes i did, using MHA-AL00 and MHA-AL00C00 and none of them work. I can download the files but when i chec firmware access it says "not approved for installation". I wrote to the chinese support because of the HICare where you can see the quote of 20.000 but its always 0/20.000 i have tried every hour, hoping it will be reset and the quote will return to 20.000/20000 but nothing. Its a fake in my eyes. I guess they want to wait a few weeks/month before they release Oreo for the Mate 9 because to be honest, if Oreao would be available already for the Mate 9, there is no reason to buy the Mate 10, specially for those who have the MHA.AL00.

You'll have to install using HWOTA. Just flashing in TWRP won't do anything.

Bootloader will lock when you've finished installing, so no need to relock manually.

Can not add my google account or any account. sucks

OK managed it. Nice

It shows quota full for me. I have a L29 rebranded to AL00. How's the update situation for you guys.

finished update without any issues, kinda love it already but will give it couple of days to check performance and battery life, not sure if rebranded will take OTA updates

So youu guys got the updte through the quota system, not the system update way?

That's right, using Hi Care, couldn't be easier. I was a little upset because the context menu did not work but it was just because it had been reset to the default launcher. I use NOVA because i love to touch any app and a menu opens offering me: uninstall, remove, setup etc. That was the mayor reason to change to Nougat because i really loved Marshmallow. But now everything works fine, Gmail etc. I am happy. My wife is upset because she has the Samsung S8 and they will not release an update to OREO until it comes with the S9. I would never again buy me a Samsung mobile.

New update out for devices

New update has dropped. Version P-MR2-RC001-RZR-190914.3123 and brings the phone up to September 5th for security updates.

I have the update pending but I don't want to download just yet to ensure compatibility with Arter97's kernel. If the WiFi is really better then I might jump on regardless because that's my primary issue at this point. Can anyone confirm either the kernel works or the WiFi is noticably better?

Compatibility hasn't been confirmed yet, but previous discussions with someone who had an AT&T version that was on a July update had issues with arter97's kernel on September's update. The kernel seemed to be incompatible as it failed to boot and also switched the phone back to the old slot afterwards.

It seems to be the case as the images are rather small. I'm not sure what to do now that I'm on Havoc OS GSI. Is there a possible way to patch stuffs other than system (such as vendor)?
I'm yet to make a backup as the current app I use for backup (Migrate) doesn't appear to work properly on this phone (while it worked on my previous one, Xperia XZ Premium), and that Titanium Backup hasn't been updated to be compatible with new features (such as split apks) so some backups can no longer work properly after restoring.
I also need to know if there were any improvements regarding Bluetooth compatibility. Currently I cannot use my bluetooth headset on GSI (only phone calls work), even with a modded overlay (with values changed to undo Razer's crippling of certain features such as aptX).
EDIT: I guess it's not that easy as the payloads are most likely block-based OTAs. These updates do not tolerate any changes on the partitions unlike file-based OTAs that we used to have. We'll have to wait for full factory images to come out and make a list of what we really need to flash from stock updates...

Any issues with the update etc please lmk everyone!
Enjoy it!

Wish I knew!
But I can say to them that people are wanting the factory images if no major issues are present I can't see why it wont be up there but that's me.

I tried updating but it gives me an error everytime.
(Using the Deodoxed version)
Can someone help me with this ?

So trying to game plan here. Logic tells me to flash boot, vendor, and system from factory image of current build. Then let the system update itself. Then flash arter kernel, then go into twrp and flash latest magisk zip to get root.

Is this update still Android 9 or is this taking us to android 10?

I'm trying to read between the lines here Brad but I'm not picking up what you're putting down.

This is the standard OTA that needs stock recovery & the update is still Android Pie/9
Also, for anyone that's curious, it doesn't seem to fix any of the speaker phone/call quality issues currently present in Android Pie/9 (but weren't present in Oreo). I can't speak to Wi-fi performance improvements, or other fixes mentioned in the update notice, but I am very thankful that Razer has released this OTA with security patches through September of 2019 ? ?. Thank you Razer!

Wifi
The WiFi is fixed for wifi calling I believe if you put this phone into airplane mode and trying wifi calls it would glitch the wifi out before now seems to work

I think I'll wait to install it until someone else who is more educated in this tests it and makes a guide for it to put stock back on and whatever we need to do to make Arter 97 kernel work with it.

Any fixes to the camera apk?

I have the update pending but I don't want to download just yet to ensure compatibility with Arter97's kernel. If the WiFi is really better then I might jump on regardless because that's my primary issue at this point. Can anyone confirm either the kernel works or the WiFi is noticably better?

i reflashed the stock firmware and ran the update to get the latest security update. I also have arter97 r11 kernel installed and magisk and have it rooted with no problems. Google Pay works as well as I was able to get it to pass the CTC scan.
