The last update I received was the August 1st patch. Is the unlocked version just being overlooked, or am I not receiving new updates?
I haven't gotten any updates either.

The last update to the u1 devices is AQH3. I have no idea why they havent updated.
Your options are do nothing, install a regular G950U rom and live with horrible carrier bloat and a package disabler, or root and run something debloated (done yourself or use a rom) and have 80% battery.

Just got an update today. It's funny, because a couple of days ago I reached out to Samsung of America, but didn't hear back. So I reached out to several Android reporting sites, and then all of a sudden we get an update.

try to check the updates manually, at least that's what i did
Yep, checked manually. Nothing.
I had an issue getting updates when I used Odin to install unlocked fw and didn't wipe afterwards. Is that the case here?
You can always go to Updato.com and search for G950U1 to dl and install from there.
I received the November security patch update last night as well.
installed the update on my s8+ while having substratum layers applied. stupid system keeps crashing, even on safe mode. had to restore to factory settings.

Well it's that time again VZW put out a new OTA anyone taken this yet what does it fix and is it worth it and I think all of us will be wondering is will it lock your bootloader Its unlocked
Me too, I got an OTA notification today, update size is 823.5 MB, don't know what build it is.
I have VZ Pixel, unlocked, stock rooted NMF260 with VZ service. Is it safe to install updates ? Please advice.
Thanks in advance.

I think your safe I doubt Verizon would lock your bootloader. That would wipe your device again
@Shiftydogit, @azn6929 got hold of a screenshot? If yes, pls share.
As you can see OTA notification
My guess is it's probably another patch or possibly a kernel update who knows or bug fix one of the three
Here it is

So one of you said you are on nmf260. That is December. So i doubt this is a "new" update, you are just behind. Google only releases on the first Monday of the month. VZ uses the same exact releases. There is no special VZ version.
Update away.

That's the crazy part. It is the exact same as what Google released in December. The Pixel's are different...they are only using Googles updates. No changes, no bloat, no nothing.

They are at the link below, posted the first Monday of each month. Dunno how you get them on an unlocked phone, I know it is doable...just dunno how.

You'd just download them then sideload the OTA via recovery or you can flash it via fastboot/ADB but if you have TWRP installed fastboot will replace it with stock recovery
OK so with update my phone lost TWRP and root other than that bootloader is still unlocked and everything seems fine
Also build number changed after update OK then
If you are getting a new Verizon OTA, it is late. My Verizon Pixel updated to NOF26V (Feb security patch), weeks ago. NOF26V is the most current image for Verizon Pixels.
I updated. New build is NOF26V. Everything seems to be fine. But root is gone. lol
Last build for shamu (N6F27M) is available :

Looks like bootloader is the same but there's a new radio, at least for Verizon.

This is probably the last official update for our Nexus 6.

Worked fine for me. If you have modded your rom, then OTA will often fail.
I've been sideloading the OTA updates for months. Since Google made the check for updates function actually do something, thought I would go that route this time. It worked and immediately offered me an update. How can I verify that it's going to install NGI77B and not N6F27M? I'm on Verizon and currently on NGI55D.
I tried capturing a bug report and looking for the OTA link in the file but am not finding it. Maybe I should just sideload it.

I guess that if your Verizon sim is in it, the "right" ota will automatically be downloaded
Now that the final patch has been issued what & when would make you all move over to a custom rom?

I bought N6 in October last year and have been using custom ROMs on it since day one.
First PureNexus and now currently DirtyUnicorns.
I plan on moving to LOS once nightlies start rolling out.

I was getting monthly security update notifications on my Nexus 6 while using Verizon, however that stopped since moving to T-Mobile in April/2017.
I'm staying stock for now, because it seems easiest to maintain Android Pay, Snapchat compatibility, etc.
Does anyone have a recommendation on which build to use if I sideload? Would that be "N6F27M" since the other October release states "Verizon" ?
EDIT: I went ahead and sideloaded N6F27M, which seems to be working fine with T-Mobile thus far.
- ooofest
Does N6F27M include security patch against new hole in WPA ?
No, it will be in November security patch but it's not sure that Nexus 6 will receive it...
I'm on Fi but my phone doesn't give me the opportunity to update N6F27M, it does not show that there is an OTA available.
Could it be that the phone was a Verizon overstock which I flashed to NGI55D manually when I first bought it?
I suppose I will have to sideload the OTA.
Edit: Never mind, it finally came through.
November security patch is out for pixel and 2015 nexus, no new build for our good old Shamu so we will have to keep it with Krack security breach or install custom rom...

Just updated myself. I remember I had a system update pop up a few months ago that immediately disappeared and no matter what I tried it wouldn't come back. I was already on the August update, though. But, it's good to see SOME sort of update.
Interesting. I received an update yesterday for my Comcast (Verizon) S8+, but they didn't even bother to update the security patch as it's still on October's. Is it that much of a bother to include an updated security patch?
If thats the u2qk2 becareful with the update, they reported that fast charge has issues unless you dont care about that
after updating to this build i cannot downgrade anymore ,all odin i try fail.

Best of luck my friend. It seems as though it should go well, but Sprint and Essential seem to be desperate to patch this situation.
Oktober Update
Developer Settings/ Essential Noch-Settings
Set default for all applications
Set per application
I record an unintentional reboot of the system after this update, but otherwise ist all stable and OK here in Austria.
I have the sprint one and everything works fine. Consistently.
No issues here. Update took longer to install than I expected, but everything working fine on my end (straight talk/at&t sim)

backed up my data. grabbed Oct 2018 OTA from Essential's site
rebooted in recovery, sideloaded OTA
after reboot, SIM still unlocked
I can't speak for downloading the OTA from the phone itself, but the above steps worked for me
I flashed via BTS, and twrp + magisk. Then I found I lost wifi. Cannot start WIFI.
Also, I uses TWRP-SEP.img. Or I will have no touch. Any hint?
very smooth battery life improved very slightly mostly standby time and speaker min volume has decreased quiet a bit which is a very nice change and now we even got notch settings which is pretty dope in my opinoin
i was hoping notch settings would fix wabbitemu's incompatibility, but it didnt.

If you're already on September, update and you're not "simlocked" you should be fine updating to Oct, build. I have a Sprint variant, and I have service through T-Mobile. After I updated to September, build I got "simlocked". Thanks to the XDA modem swop, I unlocked my device, and updated to September, build without issues.
The only problem I am having after updating to September, build, is after attempting to root my device. I lose the ability to connect to WiFi. But after re-flashing my device fastboot, I am able to connect WiFi. Anybody else?
I have the unlocked version, but am using Sprint. Still waiting for the October update. Or new cables to arrive so I can sideload it. Whichever comes first. (Just got this phone Monday. It's my first USB c device. Ah, the new accessories to invest in too...)
Any changelog or improvement?
Hi there i have the unlocked sprint variant, im on pie so it is safe to update to the oct update? I heard the locking problems on september update. Thanks for your time

If you have service through another carrier other than Sprint, and you have a Sprint variant, Essential Phone, and you haven't updated to September, update, but you would like to update to October, update, I wouldn't update to October update.
But if you have already updated to September, update, without issues? You should be fine updating to October.
If you ultimately want to update, and you unfortunately get "sim-lock" ? There are very credible fixes available in the threads of XDA for the essential phone to unlock the notorious SIM lock issue. Good luck!
Hi there I just updated to october update from Android Pie realese and I have a sprint variant PH1 unlocked and still fully unlocked. It is working great. Now I just need root it again. Thanks for all the support
Has anyone been able to find a full changelog for the ASD8 update? Just got it this morning and I havent been able to find any full changelog except for the little vague one Samsung released.
Am on ASD5 still , didn't receive updates , you can check the link in the update option
Runs cooler now I think.

I didn't get it either so I tried to manually updating it from firmware.science and that was a no go. I get an error so I guess it's only from when you're updating from asd3 and I'm still on asd5
Odin? It doesnt discriminate against current FW

You should see an update soon on U1. Att finally updated to the May Patch, so the U1 may show up soon. The April patch showed up shortly after all the carriers released.
That said, on the S9, the U1 only got quarterly updates. You may end up waiting longer on U1.

What does that thread say of Q?
Q hasn't dropped yet, so unless you have a pixel, your unlikely to have access to Q.
On the S9/+, we got the P beta October or November if I remember correctly. Pretty sure it was August before Pie was official. Samsung doesn't usually dabble in the betas, they wait for the official before they start their beta process.
