Last week I finally bit the bullet and updated from the February security patch to the April security patch. This also updated my bootloader.
After the update, I noticed my battery life wasn't as good and that Greenify apps in hibernation keep waking up at random so I have to load up greenify every so often and check to see if they've woken up or not. It's very annoying. I then decided to take the May update to see if that would fix the issues. No dice there either. These issues weren't there in the January and February patches, it started with the April security patch update.
Has anyone else experienced this? Anyone have a solution? I am on the latest AT&T firmware a the G975U variant.

Glad I am not the only one. I think it has to do with One Ui 2.1 verses One Ui 2. Any ideas on how to fix it?

Just got an update for my VS995 about an hour ago. I haven't had time to look up what it's all about but it's still 7.0 although the security patch is updated to October 1st.
Figured I'd start a thread about it so others can confirm they got it and perhaps someone can share a changelog.

Got this update a week ago when I bought my phone.

Damn, and here I was hoping we were going to get an update to improve the camera a bit.
Last time they pushed an update, they took away a feature I used (app pinning in recents). Anything missing that you've noticed?
Any improvements elsewhere you're noticing?

I would expect that in a major firmware, if we get it at all. First couple updates I would prese would be security patches and/major bug fixes.

I really want to take them to improve camera, and whatever else. But, afraid I'll screw myself on BL Unlock if I do.
QF1 released, June Security update. Some outlets say there are bugfixes and battery optimizations, probably just a security update.

Just updated mine.
Nothing new.
Same old story
I keep getting notifications of stuff like this, yet I accept and nothing seems to apply or change at all. I just wanna know when one of these updates will stop my phone from rebooting 3-4x a day!!

go back to LL, you won't have that issue.. I recently went back, and will not be going back to MM again.
I don't suppose there's an OTA way of doing that bs having to usr ODIN? I figure if I'm going to go through all the trouble of ODIN that I may as well just root and do custom ROM, kernel, OC, etc etc.

Same here.
I got the update a few weeks ago. I finally had time to backup my phone and when I went to perform the update, B393 is gone.
it's not a good update IMHO. After updating to that version, my battery life is dramatically shortened. You are lucky!
I am working on rolling back to B391 now, no success yet. Inputs on rolling back are appreciated!

Weird, this update actually improved battery life for me.

I know, there are different observations. But there have been a lot of negative reports on reddit. See for example:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Honor8/comments/8jkzhk/phone_is_freezing_and_randomly_rebooting/
https://www.reddit.com/r/Honor8/comments/8iz6us/if_your_phone_battery_behaved_strangely_try_these/

https://www.reddit.com/r/Honor8/comments/8gvzkx/does_anyone_knows_what_might_be_happening_here/
People may have different reasons to have one or some of the issues above, but I have them all! Plus my bluetooth is not working properly after rolling back to B392 on L04. So, I have to conclude it's risky to update to B393. The root may be this one reported on Android issue tracker:

Thanks for letting us know
I am using h990ds and i haven't got any update after september 2017!
Taiwan variant H990DS im still on NOV security patch.
Can it be rolled back like the previous updates for root purposes?
Is anyone else getting severe battery drain after this update? My phone's been running hot ever since, and nothing (no single app) appears to be the culprit when I dig into Settings.

My VS995 upgraded to 1BA a couple of days ago and it hasn't caused any problems. You can boot into safe mode and check if the problem persists there.

Yes you can downgrade from 1B to 12a or 13a.

Yes!!! My phone has less than half the battery life now. I've done battery historian and every battery app I can find and it always shows up as Unaccounted battery usage. It's got to be this security patch.
Did a google search for the same issues found this thread. I'm having the same problems with rapid batter discharge and unstable apps after the "Security" update.

Well I cannot downgrade from 1B to 12a. I've used LGUP. Am I missing something?
Basically what the title says, I currently have the soak test build of 7.1.1 that was posted some time ago, and I want to know if there is an official update yet, I remember some time ago some people said they already received an ota to 7.1.1, but it was only in some countries, is there a global update out yet? My phone is a xt1601 and it is on september 2017 security patch
Beforehand, thanks to everyone
OTA was finally released in the US last month for XT1607. I did it, unfortunately I had to do a factory reset due to some lockup issues I was having, but it's fine now.

I read a lot of things about Nougat 7.1.1 on XT1607. You said it's fine but if it is not much to ask, can you elaborate on battery performance versus Marshmallow,or heat issues, or network issues (with WiFi or configuring APNs), etc.? My mother phone was offered the update but I told her to wait until I gather feedback. So far the only clear advantage would be the security patch level (April 2018.)

In my experience with two unlocked XT1607s the stock Nougat build was a modest refinement over Marshmallow with no (zero) downsides. That may seem nebulous but reflects reality when focused on the big picture. I generally run rooted stock on moto devices (probably own a dozen) and rarely run into significant issues once builds have stabalized. Most reported problems are self-inflicted wounds or purists who would take issue with perfection.

I am having it crash every time it registers on the cell network. Only way to use the phone is in airplane mode.

Sorry it took me so long to reply. Unfortunately, even after I did the reset, the freezing continued. However, after I changed some notification settings and disabled a few apps, it stopped. It hasn't froze in over a week now. Maybe it was just instability immediately following the update.
Otherwise, the battery seems about the same as it was on Marshmallow. No issues with WiFi or data, or overheating. I would still be cautious about updating it, though, unless you have the time to fix any potential issues that may appear.

You have posted the same basic question in multiple threads w/o response which suggests the answer is unknown. Backup what you have now and try the TWRP flashable build which was current as of June 1st. Good luck.
