Which update do I stop at to stay off of Nougat? - Moto G4 Play Questions & Answers

Just got this phone yesterday evening and am starting to get it set up...
It is an XT1607 (US Unlocked)...
I want to stay on Marshmallow...
Which update do I stop at to prevent Nougat from installing on the phone?
There is an update available with version number MPIS24.241-2.35-1-13...
The phone is currently on version MPI24.241-2.35-1 with the July 1, 2016 security patch...
Thank you...

My build number is MPIS24.241-2.35-1-13 and I am on android version 6.0.1 with February 1, 2017 security patch, so I think that is what you'll get if you update. I just checked for system updates and it says my software is up to date. I don't think anyone has reported getting nougat on the XT1607 yet.

New OTA security update

Woke up this morning just to find that I have a new system update. Checked it and it say it's a security update, size is about 36M . Can't flash it since I am rooted and I can't find any new update under the factory images page.
Anyone else got it?
EDIT:
It seems that the August security patch has come early this month

[Q] Nougat update is back again. Link for OTA shared

Hi guys,
I have received an OTA update for android nougat. I was rooted and have xposed framework. So I have flashed stock firmware so that system status is changed to Official. I have received OTA updates after flashing till January 2017 security patch. After this update, even if i manually check for update, it just says "Your device's software is up to date".
Not able to get OTA for nougat when everyone else in India are receiving it. I received update for the same device when I had root and Xposed. Please help. Currently I'm on stock firmware without root & xposed.
Update:
Received the OTA update again. sharing the link here. Just extracted it from /data partition. Its unmodified.
Nougat OTA Link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6DJKZBTXr7MNGlmUmtmLVJ4aUk/view?usp=sharing

I think Motorola is restricting a device to download the update more than once for now, as everyone are trying to get the update. Let me know if you get the update again. Will do the same if I get it.

I have downloaded it once, but not able to find it in the cache partition. Then flashed stock firmware and no more update notification for Nougat. Even I'm wondering what really is happening.
Maybe Motorola might be pushing the update randomly. I see that many others are reporting the same issue at XDA. I hope we would get the update in a couple of days.

I got the 7.1.1.

Seems you are using the right version of marshmallow.
What i did was:-
1. Downloaded the ROM from https://github.com/motoxplay/stock. Indian version 5.1.1 (XT1562).
2. Flashed it.
3. Now the ROM was automatically updated to 6.0.1 then 7.1.1.
Just try to download and flash the ROM from here. https://github.com/motoxplay/stock
after flashing 5.1.1 it said device up to date.not working now its Lollipop.
tell me when you got nougat update because after 4 oct 2017 didn't get notification of ota
Tried it few days back, didn't work!

I have already tried this method. Flashed Indian Official Lollipop firmware and it received OTA updates till Jan 2017 security patch. No more update after that! When did you receive the notification?
I think Motorola has rolled back the OTA due to battery drain and other issues few people reported. Fingers crossed!
when you got nougat update please provide date if you remember
4th Oct

May be they rolled back the update due to issues.
I got the update on 3rd October 2017.
I don't have any issues but yes Nougat battery is not as much effective than MM.
But its not draining like other people reporting.

Kindly select based on region.
Updates will come based on combination of country & IEMI number.
If you are not from India and flashed the Indian version then it don't update further.
So make sure while flashing the ROM.
After flash check, should have stock recovery and ROM than only you will get the same.
Guys! I have received the OTA update today again. Not sure where to capture the OTA. Last time I didn't find it in Cache partition. This time I was able to pull the OTA zip file from data partition. Will upload it this evening if anyone wants the OTA zip file.
yes
thanks

Moto G5 Plus Updates

Has this phone received ANY updates? When I run Motorola's update through the Android Settings app, I'm told the phone is up-to-date, but the phone is still running Android 7.0 with a 1/1/17 security patch... is this some kind of joke?
My updates are from September. Not sure what's going on with your updates. You can manually update via fastboot or TWRP if you aren't getting them...

How do I do this?
The UK finally got the May security patch a week or so ago and when i asked Moto UK about updates they were a little terse with their answer.
I have loved my Moto phones since owning a Moto Defy but i have been looking at Nokia handsets and they seem very good for the money and with the promise of timely updates.
There's a thread in here somewhere with all the firmware links for TWRP. Those are all flashable if you have it. If not, there's another thread with fastboot firmware. Just gotta find which you need and get cracking
Hello,
I bought my phone on Ocotber 2017 and i haven't received any updates yet. My latest security patch are from August 2017.
Is this normal?
Thank you

Yes, I believe the August 1st security patch, Android 7.0 is the latest update for the US variant. Build number is NPN25. 137-83.
I got mine from Amazon UK and it's on the august patch.
It's dual SIM, that might make a difference?
I have the Amazon Prime exclusive version (U.S. XT1687) with 7.0 (NPN25.137-83), Security Patch 8/1/2017

Yep. I'm on RETUS and that is the latest version.
i am using Indian variant and having 1st November 2017's security update.
Can anyone drop the link to download august build stock rom for xt1686
Hello, thanks for the feedback.
5 months without any security update, that's a lot of time.
Mine is on reteu, NPNS25.137-33-11.
Just talked to motorolla on the chat and they said that don't know when the next security patch will be available. For a phone that has release last year on February, the support/updates should be more active. A little bit disappointed with that.

questions about the 7.1.1 update

Hi guys, I recently read about 7.1.1 being officially released, the thing is I already updated to Nougat via the soak test uploaded last year, should I revert to stock rom and get Nougat officially? How it is on performance quality?, Also, I'm on September security patch, do i have risk of bricking?
If you flash this through fastboot you will get 1 November 2017 security patch without having to downgrade. Then you may get December and February updates

How is your GPS on that firmware? Also, do you know if that firmware will work on the XT1607?

I'm not able to tell you how GPS works because I don't own the phone, I installed it in a friend's phone. And AFAIK it can be installed on all models except Verizon's XT1609. Tell me if it works for you

[Q] What is latest offical Android version for ATT S7 ?

I just purchased a new S7 (SM-G930A) and it currently has Android 7.0 and Android security patch April1, 2017. The phone is telling me that there is an update. Is Oreo available for the ATT S7 or is this just a security update ?
Thanks

There is no official OREO update for the SM-G930A model just yet... the official release date is TBD. You can download the leaked unofficial version though in a different section of this forum. The latest security patch is most likely what your available update is slated for.

The last official update I'm aware of is BRA1. Jan 1, 2018. You should have a few between what you're at and the latest.
I got a OTA to BRC1 last night.
