Really? I've had issues playing FLAC files and my phone being wakelocked (until I reboot to fix it) every time I try to listen to FLACs ever since the 7.1.1 update. I was hoping this would be fixed.

Someone would have to report Lenovorola and it would be fixed in the next update.

Yeah, don't be passive and wait that Moto figured out bug by itself. Report it. More reports, better chance that will be fixed.
Btw, do you see that wakelock as an awake in battery stats? Which music player?

update

Randomly checked and there's an update out!
Yup it enables advanced calling (hd and video) , voLTE, and when you silence or on vibrate phone the boot up droid sound doesn't come up.
Besides VoLTE, has it done anything else?
Fix the data leak?

It also seemed to have fixed the shutter on back camera (front camera still lags a lot) also battery drain standby has been fixed, last of all the boot up sound is muted when phone on standby or vibrate
I personally haven't noticed any difference in the camera shutter.. With or without HDR on.. But I never noticed being slow to start with..
Does the update break Google voice?
Shutter lag was bad for me and this update definitely sped it up.

Maybe I changed, but this is a good thing. I'm all about security these days.

Thanks for these details! I received the update about an hour ago.
I guess it fixed that annoying location found bug. So far havent seen that popup once.
What the heck? I have noticed better performance too and also data and WiFi reception has gotten better too.

I have.
So far for me reception has been overall better and also VoLTE seems to be.........working like initially intended. I'm wondering though if they changed anything that might impact battery life in anyway.
Wifi significantly improved on my turbo.

Lol! I hope so! I think it has something to do with the build number? Didn't the build number change with this new update? Not sure thou.
I think that means "soak" and they forgot to change it

No because they won't recompile after soak.
If they did, it would break all hash checks for soakers and they would never be able to get another ota.

L24 B140 update

Anyone else get a software update today? I just got my phone in the mail and was surprised it updated. Any one know where I could find the change log?
I haven't received anything yet. I'm still on B130.
Does this contain the android update to marshmallow or is this an emui update to 4.0?

This is just a maintenance release. It includes an update to the monthly Android security patch level. Android M is coming in a future update.

I was working on the review of the device and now I have to wait till my device gets the update
will it fix the lag issues ?
I have had no lag issues with the device so far. Been using it all night. Only ever used it with B140
Sent from my KIW-L24 using Tapatalk
No real lag issues here either, but I don't use my phone as a PC. Hell I'm even running smart mode and no issues.
Has anyone tried to pull the update file so that it can be uploaded to XDA?
Same here, no lag issues at all. As soon as I got the phone I did eliminate animations and set power saving to normal. No lag and battery life is excellent. My old HTC One + needed 2 full charges to get through the day. On this I get a full two days.
I have a 0.5 amp desktop USB - I know almost useless, it came with my bluetooth headset. I am too lazy to crawl under the desk and replace it. A few hours during the day and the Honor is topped up. I don't charge at night anymore. Nor forget to charge at night.
Can you post a TWRP recovery of the update?

Not even when using chrome? that's where i see lag on mine
So has anyone other than the OP received the update?
Slowest rollout ever.
@wimbet any idea why this is taking so long?
Still on B130 here.

Not here
I'd love to get something to flash in bootloader
Bummer this update didn't fix your downloaded apps icons. Still don't reflect how they're shown in the theme preview. Maybe next update!

Anyone Having Trouble Using Textra on Their New Phone?

Nothing happens when I tap the send button. Anyone else having similar issues?
Yes, I am experiencing the same issue. A temporary workaround until a fix is produced is to enable "Send using Enter" in the settings.
Same here. I thought it was only me
Me too, I am back on the stock client for now. From what I can tell Textra needs to adjust touch placement for the notification bar. I was going to send them an email since they have been super responsive in the past... then I thought they probably hate me right now. lol
I noticed that you basically have to tap a CM(1/4") or two under what you actually want to touch. I'm sure they'll get it fixed soon once the device is in more users hands.
Ditto...also can't swipe to delete unless I increase the font size to 150% (Settings - Customize Look)
Experiencing this as well!

I emailed Textra support this evening. They got back to me and said they're aware of the issue and a fix should be live soon.

Understood, adb hasn't always been my friend either and definitely had some trouble with getting this one connected as well. Hopefully Textra will come out with an official update shortly. They are usually pretty good in that regard.

I couldn't stand using the Google messenger app anymore... so I spent a lot longer than I should have doing the ADB commands... I had to use an older version of the Android SDK install I had on one of my computers...lol
It works and yeay... still sad I had to do it. lol
Still can't get the app to work. Super frustrating.
Textra is working fine for me after the new update that essential released.

You really don't have to mess with SDK installs and all that. Just download load minimal ADB and fastboot. It's super nice for stuff like this.

Essential Service update available

Just for info
New update to Essential Services on playstore now, 2nd October.
Anybody know what the Services are for?
Edit: Says Bug and performance fixes. Maybe firmware related?
I just got my essential phone off of swappa and it's running build "NMI75B test-keys". For some reason I am unable to update any system apps via the play store while on this build. Camera, Essential Resources, and Essential Services are all showing updates available, but every time I've tried to download them I get error code 505. I think there is something with this test build firmware that is preventing me from updating system apps via the play store. Every other app (150+) that I have installed has worked flawlessly.

NM164C is current official build I think. At least on mine.

Build NMI75B is not an official build from Essential. The device in reference from the XDA link is using incremental beta SW in test - 64C is the official release build at this time but we will be releasing another public SW update within the next few weeks. Stay tuned.

Yeah I saw that thread. It doesn't explain why some phone inexplicably updated to this test keys build tho. I'm waiting to hear back from support on the matter. I just want to make sure I'm able to receive all future updates.
