Jan 16th update btl boot - Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers

Seems there's a new update for the A205u scaling in at 120 mb.
Gonna update and test it out.
Hopefully we get some goodies out of this.

So far, we've got the January 1st security policy update.
Gonna dig further, since it's not just the policy update.
(Update)
OOOOOOH fingerprint scanner is accurate af now. Didn't accidentally unlock my phone when taking it out of my pocket, reacted readily to a soggy print.

AT&T Update today....but what was it?

This morning, my phone updated & I was SO excited, thinking that maybe 4.2.2 finally came.....no go, as I'm sure you all are already aware. I checked the firmware, I'm still on 1.26.501.12, Android 4.1.2 and, of course, Sense 5.0. Anyone have any insight as to what the update was?

Could be a small update before the big one roles out. Did you check the Hboot version before and after?

It seems to be an update for MediaLink but users are reporting it fixes their back and home button sensitivity.

My developer edition has the .16 version available today. Nice.

I never noticed anything wrong with my buttons, even under a screen protector. I hate updates when nothing is wrong. They make me a little nervous.

you're lucky then. Buttons on the released AT&T stock were a major complaint from just about everyone.

Yep, my wife's buttons had terrible sensitivity. I got mine a month later and it was much better.
That issue was almost enough to keep me from getting the phone. Glad I didn't let that deter me.

I had to press the home & back buttons a few times to get a response. And the double press to access previous apps.....? Forget it, rarely worked.
Now they work as expected. If I didn't have unlimited data still with AT&T, I'd be long gone

They are saying the LG V20 will be the first to have 7.0, OUT OF THE BOX.
Correct me if I am wrong, but the N6 has had preview builds for a while... And at any moment there will be the official 7.0 release for the nexus 6.
Someone will have the zip soon im sure or even a rom

compile for us please ..
This will be Nexus 6 last OS update. We will not get android O officially. But we will get security updates till android O drops. so we get 1 more year with this phone.
OTA will roll out first. Hope someone captures it for us. Images to follow on google site in a day or 2 along with source.
agree. and i might get the v20 for its reputation of lg for being expensive... hmmm..

Oreo rolling out in australia?

Check the XDA homepage.. they said that G5 and G5s users are receiving oreo in australia and new zealand.. anyone can confirm this?
Here's the article:
Motorola Brings Android Oreo to the Moto Z, Z2 Play, G5, G5S and More in Australia and New Zealand
Excellent, I hope that some users can share the zip, or something similar to install the update on other update channels, as they did with the G4 Plus when it received 7.0
I'm shocked. Is this real?

Motorola moderators say it is fake and clickbait, but i don't really believe in them since they say they don't know more than ud users do..
They guy that started this information said it is based on an email that was received from motorola australia.. not sure if it's real, we have to wait.
Needs to be more independent reports before we can trust it.
Is there anybody from Australia here ?
I'll believe it when retus finally sees npn25.137-93. (not gonna lie, seeing the announcement on the XDA front page got me excited for a split second.)
EDIT: well, I guess I spoke too soon.

The article is clickbait. If you follow the source, it is a random ass website claiming a Motorola rep told them it. I am not believing it. I can make up a website and write too that my doggo told me we will get oreo tonight!

So if you're running stock, did you receive any notification about an update to Oreo ?
Nope no Oreo. I'm from Australia. I think I actually prefer nougat. I have a Nokia 8 on oreo 8.1 and it's smooth and all but that's running a s835. This Moto g5 plus feels pretty smooth (apart from heavy live wallpapers and games) for a s625. And I like nougats overall look

Honor 8 Update Thread

This is where you guys will spread information about any OTA software updates Honor sends, or any new info from the FF app. This will be easier for people to navigate through rather than having people constantly post a new thread for every update (whether it'd be security patches, etc.), which can get repetitive for some people hence why I'm doing this. Hopefully this makes things easier for everyone.
I should also mention that whatever existing thread out there related to this is fine but anything afterwards should just be put here.
No
Don't tell others where to post. In fact, I hope 20 new threads open up after every single update.

If you like to see a bunch of new threads for every update then by all means let it be. I just thought I'd make everyone's lives easier by just checking one thread for every update. You don't have to be an arse if someone's trying to change something for the better, and no I'm not trying to force anything down anyone's throat. People said it was annoying and I thought I'd make a simple solution.

You're not. The forums for the 8 are dead. No ROMs being released, just a bunch of whiners complaining about Oreo. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Just saying.

Well we can't be the ones to be blamed here since I'm sure you and I don't act up unlike some people, which is why they're dead in the first place. You seem like you know your stuff and I don't want to argue like those whiners so we'll just leave it at that. I understand you have a different opinion on this and I completely respect it 100%.

Yeah I saw it. We still havent even received the update for June's security patch and that's not approved on FF yet lol. They really need to improve and set their priorities straight with these updates. We're always the last ones to receive anything.
