Okay so from everything I can tell it seems the att model of the m8 should have gotten the marshmallow update but it's no where to be found on my phone. Any updates about this would be greatly appreciated.

It hasn't been released yet for the AT&T version. Yes, its very late, as per usual for AT&T updates. Word is that a bug or bugs were found during AT&T's testing, and the update had to be reworked by HTC. I read on the AT&T forum, that an HTC rep (as much as you can rely on that) said that they are hoping to push it out by the end of this month.

Hello everyone,
I was wondering how many of my fellow Canucks have received the 4.0.2 update. My cousin in Toronto received the OTA update last week. I am in London and have yet to receive the update. Also, do they roll it out based on IMEI number, phone number, location, etc? Thanks!
I haven't gotten it yet, I have a feeling it's been pulled because it broke the Market somehow, and NFC was also reported to be missing.
I heard of people receiving the OTA notification in early March and then apparently it was pulled because, as you say, it was inactivating NFC and the Market. However, my cousin received his update just last week and I assumed that they had begun to release it again. The Google Play update fixed the market issue anyway, but I have not asked him if his NFC works.
It seems to me that they should just forget about 4.0.2 at this point and just wait until the next revision. Might be another several months for us Canucks though lol
With Bell and got the phone release date.
I got the update when if first appeard in Canada (early March). But had to fix the NFC issue with a patch and is working fine now.
My wife's gnex on Rogers (bought on Rogers official rls date ~ mid Jan) has not received the update however.
Sammy Canada confirmed it had pulled the update due to "issues"
I didn't have it about 2 weeks after the update first went live, so I gave up and flashed a 4.0.3 ROM.
Same here, I didn't get it on Telus Vancouver so I flashed AOKP.

I have limited experience in this regard, but I may just flash to CM9 once it is released. I'm disappointed that Canada is so far behind the rest of the world when it comes to these updates.
Even if they had not encountered any problems, we would have officially received 4.0.2 several months after the rest of the world right?
Either flash the yakjuux 4.0.2 update yourself (see here), or flash the yakju 4.0.2 images yourself (see here). Problem solved.

Apart from being on the latest and greatest, which is why many of us bought Nexus phones, is there something in 4.0.2 you really really want? I'm still on stock yakjuux on 4.0.1 and have not yet received the OTA update either, but looking at the unofficial changelogs, I don't think there is anything in the update that would change my user experience

Can anyone share there firmware version for a stock UK T-mobile HOX. Not only do I not get the 1.28 upgrade (surprise surprise) but I seem to be on a version no-one else seems to mention 1.26.110.5. Can anyone help me confirm this is the standard t-mobile version. Cheers.
it's mentioned a few times in the HOX branch - think it's one of the first impressions threads. I did a thread search on your version and found a few mentions.

Thanks for the reply. I did search but didn't really find the answer to my question. I will try putting it another way.
Does anyone have a STOCK UK T-MOBILE HOX that has a firmware version different to 1.26.110.5 or are we always going to be massively behind even the other carrier branded phones with updates.
Didn't really want to root yet but it is looking more like the only answer.
110 is the standard code for T-mobile UK, so yes, you seem to have the correct T-Mobile UK ROM.
Yes, it'll probably be a while till you get the 1.28 update as t-mobile are especially thorough in their testing before they release a ROM update. However, they're no worse than orange since they joined together.
I can confirm i'm on the same software and on T-mobile UK. I rooted because in the 4 years of being with t-mobile they never release a software update anywhere close to an expected date.
Some folk are still waiting for updates to Froyo on phones apparently.

I got a G4 a month or so ago through Craigslist. The guy I met up with got the phone early through some kind of LG early adopter program. The phone is in perfect shape and everything works great.
I'm noticing that I still don't have a stagefright patch though. This is an unbranded, unlocked phone. I'm not sure why LG Bridge doesn't have an update for me, but people with carrier branded G4s have stagefright fixes.
Is there a firmware update I should manually apply or am I just being impatient?
Doing the check here: http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=
It says I'm LG H815 AUSAVKS if it helps. Anyone else with this same model?
Thank you in advance!
Here's a screenshot of software info... figure I should probably include this.
I'm using a carrier branded G4, from Sprint, and there is no stagefright patch available yet (to my knowledge). That T-mobile fix you posted was just a matter of hours ago right? Maybe the carriers are starting to roll out the updates shortly, and maybe LG will include an update for unbranded?
May be the case. It seems unusual for carrier branded phones to get an update before unbranded... even if it's only a matter of hours. Generally carrier branded means more QA testing and therefore delayed availability.
Okay this is kind of weird because I know T-Mobile has not rolled out the update. In fact I believe they are completely refusing to do it to force people to resort to upgrading phones. But I got this system update on my phone this morning and I am wondering if anybody has gotten it as well or has any explanation. I haven't downloaded it yet.
T-Mobile SGH-M919. Weird because it says the GPE
it has been said before if you would have searched, but it is a patch for the stagefright vulnerability and that is about it.

GPe? That's odd, unless you're running a custom ROM

Which rom where you using when you get this message?
GPE has already been updated to 5.1, so even if that is LP it's still older than current.
I have been calling TMOBILE (US) every week since May to find out where the LOLLIPOP UPGRADE is for my SGH-M919 ((Galaxy S4) and finally about 3 weeks ago I got them to confess that SAMSUNG HAD GIVEN THEM TO UPDATE FOR THIS PHONE - BUT, THEY WERE NOT GOING TO RELEASE IT.
When I asked why, I was given the B***S*** answer that there were known bugs and all other providers had problems with it - I said they were corrected in the 5.01, and 5.1 versions - he then basically (without saying it) stated they want people to buy newer devices.
I told him I OWN MY DEVICE, THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT, and I WILL ROOT IT AND PUT A CUSTOM ROM ON IT.
I was told, you will void your warranty.....I rolled with laughter and said...it is over 2 years old - THERE IS NO F***ING WARRANTY anymore...and I hung up.
*BH*
Yet another great example of why I jumped ship for Cricket. Tmo does all this uncarrier crap because they say they care about the consumer, but when it's all on the table they're just like Verizon or Sprint or AT&T. If you're on older hardware, then they don't care about you. You're a number that they added years ago, and all that matters are the numbers they'll add today and tomorrow.
I'm still rockin' my S4 after all this time. When I'm ready to upgrade, I'll be buying my phone unlocked and ready to go with Cricket. Now that the new Nexus devices are on their way, I'm just going to save up and splurge on the Nexus 6P and not have to worry about bull**** carriers screwing me on updates and security fixes.
I buy T-Mo phones because they traditionally have unlocked bootloaders, so I can flash whatever ROM I like. ATT, and I believe Cricket, tends to use phones where the bootloader is locked down tightly. I like the open Nexus platform and am also considering one in the future...
Hi all,
I have a VZW 10 running 1.19. I'm interested in knowing if the connectivity issues, specifically Wi-Fi, have been fixed. The patch notes for 1.53 do address it, but has it been fixed.
I know there are workarounds, but this is a $550 phone. Wi-Fi should work out of the box.
Thanks for your help.

1.53 is for general US unlocked and not VZW. 1.53 needs non VZW firmware to work properly.
1.19 is a very old build (US launched with 1.21) so I'd expect a VZW update sometime in the next 30 days.

I'm on 1.19 as well shipped from Verizon. no update was available to 1.21 for me. I'm currently using viper now with 1.19 still, hoping to see something pop up on here :fingers-crossed:
I seem to have wifi issues using standard wifi, but if I use the wifi-5G connection It works flawless

Correct, 1.21 is ONLY for general unlocked versions and not VZW. You won't see a 1.21.617.* or 1.53.617.* update as those are not for your device. In fact you shouldn't use any *.617.* build as the 617 indicates it's not for your carrier but general unlocked.
You must use a VZW build because of firmware and custom VZW settings. Your only choice right now is to wait for VZW to push their build update.

My wifi was fine on 1.21, then was horrible with the 1.53 update. It's mostly alright now with a couple tweaks.

Interesting. How will future firmware updates work? Will we receive the same but with .605 at the end?

The build identifiers work like this = 1.53.617.5 <--- current gen unlocked build.
1.53 = primary build ID
.617. = is the carrier specific ID
5 = minor build revision ID
You're partly right. A VZW build would look like (taken from an M9 build) 3.37.605.7 where .605. is the VZW carrier ID. More than likely when they release the update it'll be higher than 1.53.*.*
If you're stock recovery and system then you'll get an OTA notification from VZW whenever their updates are available. There may be an RUU available once the updates are pushed and settled.
The OTA will have a new radio, firmware and system updates for your carrier. You must use matching firmware/system build in order to get the best performance. The firmware is the hardware layer while the system is the software/OS layer.
You should not use new system with old firmware or new firmware with old system files.
Great. Thank you. That helps. I will wait patiently for HTC and Verizon to fix this issue.

I know it's a tough spot and being patient can be hard.
I really don't think it'll be long before we see an update for you. The UK and US updates were about 3 weeks apart and we just got our US 1.53.* update a week or so ago. Give it a couple more weeks to pass the carrier approval stage and it'll get pushed out.
For sure, there will be an update. Try to be patient

I haven't experienced this exact issue but what I have experienced as a general drop in signal strength on the 10. I have a side-by-side comparison of signal with my m9 versus the 10 and there's a big difference. I'm on prepaid service so I'm planning on switching to AT&T next month just to see if their service is any better. So far no one from T-Mobile has been able to tell me why my service is so bad considering I have two towers less than 1 mile away from where I live, and when I first started service with T-Mobile about five years ago it was fantastic but I would say in the last six months to a year it has started to go downhill
