July security update? - Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers

Has anyone with the 1687 retus received the OTA containing the July security update? I am currently rooted with a custom kernel and TWRP flashed stock ROM so I know I won't see the OTA, but I don't want to go through the trouble of going back to stock and finding out it isn't even available for my device yet.

It wil take a month or so before it really comes. Moto has this thing where they post it, but in reality it takes a while before they rol the OTA.

I saw Motorola's blog post, but my device doesn't have anything available yet. As a matter of fact, I still don't even have the updated Google Calendar 5.0. I'd rather see the Play Store offer it than install the APK manually. Not sure when that will happen.
Keep checking. I have 2 on hand. One received it immediately, the other kept saying your device is up to date. Checked a short while later and it was there
Any word on if this official OTA will be pushed to those of us running the leaked .5 Lollipop build? Or will we still need to downgrade to stock 4.4.4 to receive the update? Thanks!

This is what I want to know too. I know it just started rolling out, but does anyone know yet?
You have no choice but to downgrade back to 4.4.4 using the images Moto released yesterday. Instructions are available throughout the threads here. There is not going to be a .5 lollipop to the final version. Nothing will come OTA to your device. I took the time last night to flash back.

Sigh. Thanks a lot for the answer, guess I'll have to flash back to stock this afternoon when I get home!

Is that actually confirmed by Motorola? Seems odd they would offer a soak test and then tell all the testers to go back to 4.4.4 (which is far more challenging) to get the official update.

Yes, the update for the soak test users was only sent to them and no one has captured or released it.

That is the full update for 4.4.4 to the final version of lollipop. That's not a .5 to .6 update.

How much time for branded devices? I have an att dev.
I still have no update yet... Does the official OTA affected by the "root issue"? Also i'm curious if i will see OTA on my device if it's rooted?
If you carefully read my OP here, you'll understand the situation if you're on the .5 or .6 builds

Sprint finally rolling out Lollipop to Moto X owners

So I noticed this today https://community.sprint.com/baw/message/1017547#1017547
Of course, I had given up on this, and finally unlocked and rooted my phone a week ago. I gather than means I can't take an OTA update. Not sure I want it anyway, I'm happy with the stability of the native ROM. AdAway and tethering were the only things I needed and I've got those now.
Any one get this update yet? I just booted up several sprint moto x that I haven't used in a while and got an update to 4.4.4 that I should have gotten a long time ago, but, no 5.1 (the phones no longer have active service) might that be an issue in getting an OTA? Just wanted to upgrade to lollipop before I sold them...
Anyone seen this yet?
Sprint probably started rolling it out before everyone else, it's just that their network is so slow that no one received the notification until after every other carrier had pushed out the update.
Please tell me someone got the OTA
Anything yet? Anyone? 20 days since "release" and nothing?
I'm hard pressed to believe no one has got the update yet. I swear this starting going out on the 5th of Nov. A poster on Reddit said the release window was until the 7th of Dec daaaannnngggg, I'm still impatiently waiting lol
https://community.sprint.com/baw/message/1017547
Shows the 10th of Dec on the update announcement, so after the 10th, when you click system update should def be there? Maybe soon...lol
:highfive:

Just a few days away from December 10th, and I haven't gotten the update yet. Is there any way to force it to show up? Does anyone have the firmware that I could flash myself?
I think by now its safe to say, it won't be all rolled out by the 10th. It has to be a problem with the update.

Who do I contact from Sprint if the update doesn't show up by the 10th?
Sprint will just pass the buck to Motorola and we will go around in circles! Sprint and Motorola need to learn how to communicate with their customers.

Some good news. 2 people on the Sprint Moto X message board just reported getting the update notification this afternoon. So there is hope yet.
Update - just checked and got the update notification! It has arrived! Will install when I get home.
Yes, all my phones are stock, locked bootloader and unrooted. Installing it on one of the three moto x's in the household.

I checked for updates and it was there! Finally official 5.1 lollipop!
Great news: I just got the notification for the update! Now I just need someone to upload the firmware, so I can do a "clean install" using RSD.
First post! Also got the notification, so I came on here to tell everyone! I checked here earlier today and people were being all pessimistic. I can't believe this is finally happening! Sprint just got almost all their points back. Almost... Better late than never. And at least Motorola and Sprint stuck with it till the bitter end.
It's out today!!!! Saw a couple people on Reddit post pics, so it's finally here
updated and it takes forever to finish but it does Enjoy it folks, we're the last of a dying breed
Does the Sprint update Lock the Sim again? Like the sprint 4.4.4 5mb security update did?

New Verizon Update NMF26U

Looks like there is a new update coming.
https://9to5google.com/2016/12/05/android-7-1-1-update-ota-nexus-pixel-december/
Interesting that it is coming to Verizon pixels but no factory images from Google yet. Curious to see if both models will always have the same updates or if sometimes Verizon models will have specific ones.
This is just the january patch due to be released on the 2nd of Jan

For the official NMF26U update, the Verizon article can be found here https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/google-pixel-update/
Nothing listed here https://developers.google.com/android/ota to this point.
Would be curious if anyone took the update?

Dont think it was released. Usually security patches are released first monday of every month. Not sure why there is a delay

I'm guessing because of the New Year's Holiday the push was delayed. I would suspected it would have come out today. So if it's not out yet, then I'm maybe next Monday. That's if they stick with their current deployment scheme.
Two versions just posted, NMF26U and NMF26V.

Haha that was fast :laugh:
I'm on NMF26O. Nothing shows when I click check for updates on my phone. It's Verizon phone with root running on TMobile. Should I go ahead and sideload NMF26V?
and "NMF26V" is international?
thats the question, how can i identfy which one is my OTA file from Europe, version NMF26O
Not sure which version to use. Google phone on Verizon.

Probably U.
In the past on the Nexus devices the earlier letter is the general release and the latter was for some specific carrier. My bet is the V version is a continuation of the Q fork from last month for some overseas carriers.
Edit. Over in the XL forum VZ customers and Vodephone are getting U OTA.
Just a heads up, I don't know if I did something wrong but I sideloaded the V update and now lost root. Let the phone boot after updating, fastbooted TWRP, deleated fstab, flashed SR5 and nothing but bootloops. I can reflash the V OTA and get my phone back but can't get root. At least not with SR5. Going to try flashing the U factory image (if it will let me) and see if that fixes it.
Edit:
Reflashed the V OTA, booted TWRP, flashed SR4, deleted fstab, flashed SR4 again, and phone boots fine with root.

I got the OTA U on a Verizon phone activated on Project Fi. I'm thinking unless specifically you know to use V then the U update is the way to go if you want to sideload.
Google updated the image site, V is for Europe/O2 and U is for everyone else.

Well since you have their ear, perhaps you can tweet them to update the OTA images with descriptions. Only the full images have that. Not that it's hard to deduce but since some people sideload the ota rather than wait it might be nice.

EE simlocked uk versions got nmf26u, i'd think if you have nmf26o then you have the current version for your carrier, which carrier is 'o'
is there a way right now to get the bootloader unlocked on a verizon pixel xl...... 7.1.1?

looks like a new VZW OTA is out

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.

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

Really no zip file? That's crazy. The earth has so much people on it and there is no one person who can get this second soak test update and post it here. That's just amazing. Maybe on other planets are people with update zip file? What's with the mars people?
No Mars people yet but I heard over 1k volunteers are available

Motorola should offer the update on her server. Google do this for her pixel phones, too. So what? There is the possibility to update over adb sideload, but no official zip files to update. But, this new update is not include 07/2017 security patch. So, do we really need this? We should wait for the next full update, stable release. That should be save to sideload, right? Full is the best.

Sorry, I prefer customer roms over waiting for the Mfg. to play catch up. I found custom roms will give you more up to date security and more options than the Mfg. will offer.

That's not the latest. Branding software can not be updated to latest 7.1.1, or? Just retail can be flashed to soak test.
