Hello together,
I have got a question regarding the update of a GN. Everything on this phone is basically manufacture default. Its bought in Poland and used in England. Since JB should be OTA the phone should have a Message on that top scroll down screen when the update is ready - i guess.
Will the Update of that phone be received with Polish updates or with English updates and do i need to change any settings on that phone? Like download only by wifi and something like this?

I would guess that the update will be the language on the phone so if your language is set to polish you'll get polish updates, also you shouldn't need to change any settings to get the update, but if you're trying to force it you can clear data and force stop the 'Google Services Framework' app and then check for updates again, that made me get it instantly.

Go to settings->Apps->Swipe across to 'All'->Find 'Google Services Framework'->The Press 'Clear Data' and 'OK'' on the Dialog box->Then 'Force stop' and 'OK' on the dialog box->Go back to settings->'About Phone'->'System Updates'-> 'Check now'
The update should appear and download a few seconds after that, as I said it worked first time for me but for others it takes more than one try sometimes.

If you are running a build of Android other than yakju or taku, the Jelly Bean update is not out yet. You either have to wait, or flash yakju or takju as per this thread.
Well.. is the build version listet in that about phone window?
are those builds the stock once? can i check a page where it gives that information for which build it might already be out? thought the wonderfull thing is updates out as soon as android is released

Look at the Settings->About phone menu and read the Build number. If there are more than 6 digits in that field, you are NOT on yakju or takju, and there is no JB update for you yet. You are on some Samsung build.

thanks for the heads up .. but i cant be bothered to start flashing custom roms over custom roms just because google andoid is not able to provide an update for every stock version of the operation system ... and gave my girl that advice because they get the updates as soon as they are out..

you only flash it once. thats it.
once you flash it once, you're done. they are factory images from google and any future updates come in a regular OTA update.
But its not my phone and i dont use android atm and i cant be asked to read me in this stuff since i got work to do and part time studies.
is there a list to see when the others will get there update? - still cant believe that sh1t

About that list, ask your carrier.
So, if you dont use android, cant be bothered by all of this, dont have the time, and its not your phone, and you and the owner have been mislead by advertising in your country, we cant help you. Still cant believe the attitude.

blame your region and blame samsung. it has been documented so many times that there's 3 firmware images that get updated directly by google. 2 of them are for GSM phones and the other is the verizon version (after carrier approval for vzw anyways)
honestly if you cant be bothered to spend 30min to use the solution given to you, you have no excuse. this is my last reply to you.
besides, its not even your phone.
i know its not my phone. but i will not flash another rom on a stock android rom. no reason for except of the build problem that is supposed to be the good thing about google nexus phones. so wp8 it will be for me
^Really? You come to a gnex forum get all your questions answered, get good advice from helpful members here, now cant be bothered and call the phone sh1t. Go buy a nokia candybar, you will be happier. :good:
i probably will .. at least they roll out updates as they come. cmon .. you have to admit that this update politic is supposed to be good for nexus phones and here it proves to be just as **** as on every other android phone on the market .. or whats the problem that this phone is not able to get the update? its not branded and not bought at any provider.

So I'm wondering about this phone a friend offered to sell to me. It's a Samsung Taylor developer phone, so I have no idea which forum this goes into.
Will I be able to get software updates to the phone at all? Because right now the phone comes with the prototype ROM, so it can't record 720P. The camera is crap, some things like Facebook and Twitter don't work all the way. The marketplace isn't there. Its not stolen property because he is an independent developer and he says the phone served its purpose and he moved on to actual Win7 phones.
Any opinions? I asked my friend and he says he never tried looking for updated ROMs and he stopped using them after he got a focus.

connect it to zune and look for updates , there are beta updates for that phone (actually with a higher build number and copy/past) so I would say yes there are updates for .
I have a German Vodafone Optimus 7 that was used a couple of months by a software developer. I don't think it's running the latest (stable) build of WP7 however. When I check for updates with Zune it says that I'm up to date and the current version is: 7.0 (6536). Is this the latest version that every WP7 device is running? And if not, how come that my device doesn't get any updates?
Btw, Marketplace etc. just work fine on the device.

thanks , didn't know of the LG Panther .
ps, the latest official build is 7004.
In theory, the Taylor and Panther have updates to build 7003/7004, and they are available on the net (or if you ask the right friendly WP7 dev).
If you plug the device in to Zune, it should search for an update to 7003, though that might not happen.
73XX and above do also exist for the Taylor/Panther, but they're a lot harder to come by, and won't be coming out via Zune any time soon.
In theory, a dev device running 7003 will be able to do anything a release device running the same build (they wouldn't be much use as developer phones if they behaved differently) so I think updating the device should fix the issues you've got, though it'll never do 720p video, and the camera is terrible!
i dont think my friend's is even running the release. the market doesnt work and the live integration is blank. so if i have him get the update, basically i can upgrade it? awesome.

Are you absolutely sure you're using the correct "ChevronWP7.Updater"?
The download link was pulled some time ago, so if you downloaded anything off of Chris's blog, it was the wrong updater.
Edit: I would post a link to the correct one, but all the mirrors were on megaupload...which is now gone

So, it may be fake... I received Sammy Taylor at August, 2010 and installed all updates MS sent to registered developers/partners but never heard about Taylor on 7004.
In my case, it fails when applying the diff packages, since they are all 7004-7008, adn my rom is 7006.
I have try to find info about the links to 7006-7008 packages with no success so far.

Which exact model do you have? You wouldn't happen to have the Verizon version? If so, that is the latest update that's been approved and released by Verizon. My recommendation would be to unlock the bootloader and install a custom ROM.
hi
i just found out that i have a yakjuxw
I don´t know much about installing custom rom´s and thought it would be easy to fix this by changing a setting or so
I will wait till i get an automatic update

I'm no expert, but the way I think it works is that if your phone's not AT&T branded you won't get the update as they are AT&T version specific. If you want to check for and get any kind of updates you'll probably have to go through Samsung's Kies program.
Sorry, misread on the unlocked part.

Android's April security update tackles another Stagefright flaw
You'll want to update in short order.
Google's monthly Android security updates are nothing new, but its latest release may be particularly important. The new April update tackles eight critical vulnerabilites that include one in the libstagefright library -- you know, the same media framework that recently faced a rash of real and potential exploits. It also patches a nasty kernel flaw that would give attackers full control over your device. You'll get first crack at the fixes if you either have a Nexus device or can install an Android Open Source Project build, but other vendors that offer Google's monthly updates will likely follow suit before long.
Now tell me that i do not need this update!

Customized CH did, indeed.
Silly question : Would an update, like this one, need to update with previous versions first before upgrading to this one ? I'm asking this because here in the UK, I'm still with the Customized UK 47.1.A.16.20. And I've never had any Pie update available displayed on my phone.
Several versions have been dispatched to other zones in the world, including several for different UK providers but then hang in the middle of the roll out. Plus in the Support > Software section of my G8441, it says in the "Next Android version" sub section : "No new Android version planned yet".
It looks weird, isn't? Not to mention after Sony started to roll out their very first Pie firmware for the G8441, my Xperia Companion said a new Software version was available, with no description, no firmware version number, and when trying to download it, Xperia companion crashed and needed to restart. Few hours later, when opening it again, the 'New Software' notification disappeared. Since then my phone displays "No new Android version planned yet".
Is this related ?
Thanks in advance, and sorry for the half off-topic...
I too have the customized UK phone, and nothing here either
Does someone know which .sin files to exclude if I want to install the new firmware (I already have Pie) with newflasher but want to keep my existing settings, apps and data?
I know that persist*.sin should be excluded to avoid losing android assets keys and userdata*.sin also I guess by the name. Anything else?
I have an unlocked bootloader with DRM keys backed up and restored with Customized CH 47.2.A.2.33 installed. I also have flashed the secd patch so the phone offers OTA update, but I know it won't work with the bootloader unlocked.
Came OTA in Switzerland. Update worked like a charm and I don't see any changes except for December security patch.

Updates don't work like that. If you have the CH ROM, you'll get the OTA for that. If you have UK rom, you'll get the UK rom update regadless of the place you are in.
You can manually flash a different rom customization (uk, ch, nordic etc) and then het updates for that one. I don't know if there are some disadvantages doing that though, as some customizations might have specifoc stuff for some countries / carriers.

I do have CH. I flashed CH manually a long time ago, as I was not getting any updates (missed several months) on my DE. I have gotten many regular OTAs since and did a few resets. But I did not get any of the Pie versions. I thought maybe it is actual location...
I'm in the UK boat, I've been a Sony user since the Xperia arc and I've certainly had some long waits for software updates but I can't remember seeing so many versions released without the UK sim free getting any of them. Can't see my next phone being Sony now.

From what I am deducting all around the web (Sony forums, XDA, 4pda) just keep Oreo and don't bother seeing the number 9 instead of the 8 in the about section of your phone.
I had the OTA update notification for a few weeks, neved installed and eventually it disappeared because Sony has shut down the updates as of Pie bugs reported in their forums.
I am still on latest Oreo and I am going to keep it until I see a totally polished Pie, and it will take months!
Apart from slowmo 960fps in FullHD I truly do not see any reason to update, because the cons are more than pros.
Sure, security patches will be up to date, but does anyone feel the difference having a few month outdated patches? The security is in the hands of the user.

They are in the early days for Android 9 Pie. And Sony is one of the first companies to release pie updates. It's buggy, which is the usual after updating to a new major android version. The previous version 47.2.A.2.33 was not even completely rolled out before this current version started rolling out. I'm sure the usual rollout schedule will continue as the software matures.

Here we go, WW update, latest rom for us! Thanks to chicken on the Vietnam telegram group. I'll post more later when I get home regarding magisk etc.
For now though, place in root of the storage and restart. But hang fire of you're rooted and want to remain so, I'll post instructions later, unless of course you know what you're doing. I just want to check magisk via ota method works before I post in detail here...
Changelog
WW 1910.35
Added grid display for game selection in the Games Library of Armoury Crate
Added game cover customization in*the Games Library of Armoury Crate
Added AirTriggers slide gesture in Game Genie (Beta)
Fixed the issue where navigation bar couldn't be hidden when playing "Black Desert"
Fixed the issue where Game Genie panel was pulled out easily when Key Mapping was used
Update with root : I was running magisk 20.1 prior to updating. After placing ota in root of internal storage and rebooting, system update should be detected. Click to install. Once completed don't restart the device, just choose 'later', then go to magisk manager and choose install. Then choose install ota. After that, reboot and you should have a fully updated and working latest rom with latest magisk still intact
Root and stock boot img's should you need...

Umm, good question! I just posted the changelog, not sure what it allows to do. Will have a Google etc later if I get a chance...
Perhaps, for instance, when going around corners in a car racing game the slide option allows gradual increase in steering? But that's a complete guess at this point!
Thanks. Btw anyone using Paypal or Bank apps? Not working after rooting right?

Basically, yeah, it allows gradual sliding to control, for instance, walking /sprinting in pubg or gradual drifting in asphalt... But I have used it yet, I'm only telling you what I was told! Hopefully that's correct though...

Hope someone can confirm because this sounds really cool. I have the CN version so we don't get the same updates.
@MishaalRahman Please see screenshot...
I assume this has the October Security update too?? Isn't mentioned in the release notes

Yes, 1st Oct
Haven't gotten this OTA update, didn't get .25 either. I'm not sure why because my device is untouched. Anybody else seeing this issue? I'm on a WW device, Indian variant, 8/128.

1. Have you had any updates without forcing them?
2. These updates are early releases from CN or Taiwan or Vietnam (somewhere along those lines) and the updates for eu and India market will no doubt get released at some point in the future from the main asus website.
3. Although you may have bought a device with WW rom installed, doesn't mean the fingerprint has been changed. You can check with device info hw from playstore. You'll find, under system, your product id and rom plus fingerprint, they all need to match.
4. That said, even then I'm not sure (if they do all match) you'll get the updates without manually installing them. I can't say for sure as I always download the early bird releases from Vietnam telegram group. I've never waited to see if updates to indeed happen automatically here in UK...
Hope some of this helps...

1. Yes, I've gotten the .21 update which is the only one that has come out since I bought the phone.
2. I thought so too, just need to confirm.
3. It's an official Indian variant from Asus, so fingerprint mismatch is unlikely. I think it's just that .25 was never officially released, and I'll probably get .35 soon. Hopefully!
Thanks for your help.

.21 was an official release. .25 still hasnt been updated on the Asus Bios firmware page, so I assume it wasnt official. .35 still hasn't been updated on the Asus Bios firmware page, so its still not available. If you have a genuine WW phone (like my North American WW bought from B&H) then just download, put in the root directory, and reboot the phone to install.
I've just done mine, and works great! :good::good:

I'll wait for a couple of days and then try doing that. OTA for Indian units is usually delayed so I'm hoping I'll get it by the end of this week.
Goooood
