So as the title suggests. I bought my phone 2 months ago, and since I got it it hasn't updated once. Nothing, not so much as a security patch or anything.
I've tried googling this but nothing comes up. I obviously check via system update - and it says it's up to date.
My build number ends 137-33.
Android security patch 1st January 2017.
It's not rooted. And all stock.
Is this normal?
My phone came with same build and you're not alone. Twiddling thumbs may help with the long wait, or root and try some custom ROMs. I've got the June 5th security patch running CyberOS which is based on Android 7.1.2 and other custom ROMs are similar. There's a debloated stock ROM based on India's G5+ update (they got one already) with the March patch at least. That said, there are rumbles ours is finally coming soon if you do want to remain stock and get the OTA.
What does it say under Settings > About Phone> Software Channel?
There hasnt been an update for the UK Moto G5 Plus yet.

I asked a similar question in a separate thread and maybe you know, is the update 137-35-5 that is available as a zip able to be flashed over this same build, 137-33 I have now? I unlocked my bootloader but stopped short of flashing twrp or rooting. I think the 35-5 update only has the May security patch only but someone uploaded the full firmware. Any opinions are welcome.

Yeah, I cannot believe that some regions were being updated months ago to March and subsequently May security patches and the UK is still yet to receive any updates at all. Why do manufacturers make their lives so much more difficult by having such variances by region? A single software version for all regions seems to work just fine for Google and their Nexus/Pixel lines.

I fully agree with you mate and i think it is only going to get worse with Lenovo pumping out more and more models.
I am in same boat my friend
I got the phone with June security patch. And I'm not getting any OTA update for the latest version. How do I update my phone to the latest version??
It's 1021 not 1201.
If you've just got the phone, then don't worry you'll get it soon. I got it 1 or 2 days late as well. Keep checking regularly.
Bought my phone 12 days back. Checking regularly but still to no avail.
Keep checking, it'll come.
my phn coms with june update.. and aftr first boot i gt the july n aug update... and few days ago i gt septmbr patch s well... it depnds on carer and may be state... m using jio!!!
Yeah you are right mj_arafat, there's something wrong. Because I bought this phone about 2 months ago. And I'm still on June update.
I didn't receive July, August or September updates.
I've got Australian version TA-1033.
Still not getting the update. Do I need to visit the service centre to get the update or can anyone tell me how to manually update the system.
October update
Still I didn't get the October update .....
You can try this.
http://www.teamandroid.com/2017/10/1...droid-712-ota/
This is how you manually update, if you don't want to wait for OTA or are not getting any OTA.
Don't update manually...as it's very risky we don't have any flash tool available right know to flash the stock ROM if anything goes wrong...
I using Nokia 6 from 24 aug... Normally update comes between 20 to 25th of every month.. so i recommend to wait ...
Yeah I forgot to mention that. We have seen some people who ended up with problems so it is risky.
I have the UK bought TA-1033 variant. Got till September security patch. Waiting for the 7.1.2 + October security patch.
Didn't get October patch or 7.1.2 update..
Stuck on September update too.
No 7.1.2+october patch
TA-1021 India
I'm still stuck on June patch. What needs to be done??? Any suggestions
Anybody in India having TA-1033 got update ?
Try this
Try sticking a different SIM from a different operator in the phone. I'm on Vodafone and put an O2 SIM in and within 30 seconds it found the update.
I just have get the august update

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

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.

I saw update notification on Lenovo support page for APAC from December and almost broke my update check button, but it says You have latest version . Still on August update, which I got in October...

Same here in Poland. It looks like Lenovo is pretty slow in Europe.
My 3gb g5 from Amazon on retgb, updated to 1 Nov 2017. I was shocked it received its first update!
Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk
Seems there are at least 2 variants.
One that got some update in August (Mine didn't)
2nd that got now (Feb) the Nov updates. (Mine - 3GB "exclusive" version by Amazon UK with 2 sims).
I must say - phone seems to work better now.
So - when/where is our Oreo?
Hi
Just recieved the same update for XT1676 RETEU software channel.
Cheers
It was long overdue.. NPP25.137-93 finally here for reteu/ger.. Now it shouldn't take long for January (g5/retbr already got it).
Got it on reteu in Poland.
Got it on reteu (country - Slovakia) today. I can't see some big functional improvements (except camera app update), but phone seems to be generally working faster and it's a little bit more stable also.
I just got this ota update on reteu in UAE
I took an OTA update after my moto G5 had the bootloader unlocked and rooted. Now, it only boots to TWRP menu. The only workaround now is to go to Reboot/Bootloader in TWRP. Once in Bootoader, I can select start to boot normally. What can I do to get the phone to boot normally like before the OTA update.
you need to flash stock included stock recovery to update ota
Did someone already got the January Update?

I think retbr and retca got it.
Today, I just got a new firmware update that takes my Honor 7X US version from BND-L24567B140 to B150
Update says only: Google Stagefright: Google security patches are merged to make your device more secure.
Google security patch is updated to latest i.e. March 1.
I got this update even though I am in Mexico on Movistar local SIM and local provider. So it does not seem to depend on location.
I have another Honor 7X with T-Mobile SIM but it did not get the update yet. Still on B140. Maybe it is a staged update over several days.
Nothing really new. Still no news on Oreo update.
Joe
Whicheans Oreo would be rolled in 3-4 months
I got that update yesterday also on the L24. Nothing special which is very disappointing. Got excited for a couple seconds until I read the description
