You can't update without removing root

You need to remove root, flash stock boot and stock recovery before you download the ota for installation.

Just updated but now Google Assistance no longer works and fail to connect.
I have to clear Google app all data to make it run

Factory reset..

Wow. Two system updates in the last 10 days. Just updated BLN-L24C567 to B366 from B365. Security patch is Nov. 6.

I guess this makes Huawei/Honor phones a lot better than Lenovo Moto phones. Once I recommended my father to buy a (Lenovo) Moto X Pure. The phone received updates something twice a year (!), and its Nougat update came 13 months (!) after the official Nougat release, and maybe 10 months after when Lenovo promised this update would be available. Huawei has a better track record than Lenovo IMHO.

13 months is a lot, and yes, Huawei/Honor has been better in the recent years when it comes to updates

Indeed. They give update if want to else simply discard. btw see what Apple was doing with regular updates.. they admitted and was a let down for many (but accepting it needs some real guts for a brand like Apple)
Who knows other OEMs who gives regular updates are doing similar things

edit: scratch that

Moto Z2 Force not getting OTA updates

I have a ATT branded Moto Z2 with a Cricket SIM. I got the phone in late november, and it came with Android 7.1.1 with the June 1 SPL. I know that ATT has released several updates, the latest in December with the November 1st SPL,
but everytime I check for updates it says that my phone is up-to-date.
So far I tried to check for updates after a factory reset, and also tried to do an OTA update with an old ATT SIM in it. Nothing seems to be working.
I have posted on the lenovo support page but so far I have not got any answer. I am not the guy that has to have the latest software running, but the updates fixed the BlueBorne security hole...
Othat than using a Cricket SIM, the phone is stock, not rooted.
has anybody encountered the same problem? Thank you

So I have two Tmobile versions of this phone. one rooted/unlocked, one not. I am also having a problem with receiving OTA. Mine stock device is on an August Security patch and there have been two released patches since then. I just got off the phone with both motorola and tmobile and they are both useless. I explained over and over that i wasn't calling about the oreo release, that i was calling about ANY updates and they couldn't get that through their head. Further, tmobile states they haven't released an 8.0 ota which we all know is false since several people on this forum have received it.... very frustrating. I may have to unlock my stock device if I ever want an actual update.

At least the T-Mobile versions can be rooted. As far as I know, the ATT cannot as of yet.

theres only been one update since august and thats a fixed august. the other being the oreo update thats available now
if you would like to update your phone we have the ota updates and can get you updated without unlocking your bootloader just let me know [email protected] on hangouts

What OTA for Tmobile? Mine has NCX26. 7 as stated in Tmobile support site, I do know that OCX oreo release is suppose to be live but support site doesn't show it andy phone hasn't gotten it.

Found a way to get it to download updates.
So, after wasting my time with Motorola and ATT so-called "technical support", I decided to try something: I rebooted the phone in recovery mode (VOlume down + Power button) and put it in recovery mode. Rebooted from recovery mode, and bingo, it downloaded the next update (September SPL). It now shows "background installation..." in progress. Hopefully this is going to be the solution.

I did the update manually using the file nash_opx 27.109-34_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC. Xml. zip and it worked perfectly.

I think I may have found the right recipe. The trick is to check for updates while NOT on WiFi. So move away from WiFi coverage, but still within Cell coverage, with Data on. Check for updates. It will say that an update is available and will be download when within WiFi range. Move back to where you have WiFi, and bingo, it will start downloading. I did it twice yesterday afternoon, once to go from the Sept to the Oct SPL, and then from the Oct SPL to the Nov SPL, which is the last available update according to the ATT page. All of this with my Cricket SIM. WHy this works is beyond my pay grade to figure out. I will eagerly wait for the next update to be posted to see if this trick works consistently. Again,
this seems to work with my ATT branded phone.

My ATT Z2 force, starting from last evening (1/24/2018), kept getting security update, from September, 2017. Then this morning, October 2017 and November 2017. Does this mean we are going to get Oreo update soon ?

So I've had my Moto zforce 2 for 3 days now. We're is the Oreo update ? T-Mobiles site says it was released Dec 22nd ?

Dude..Let us know when u get Oreo update....So am I

Anyone on TMobile receive the ota update ?

There are issues with calling and sms on the T-Mobile variant. The update has been pulled while they sort out the issues.

Well that makes sense why I'm not seeing it then.

I am still not able to get the AT&T update past June. I tried the reboot into recovery and nothing. Is there a way to manually install the update from an SD card which would allow for OTA updates in the future?

Good. On my account we got 2 of them for Christmas. A few days after Christmas, one of them updated to Oreo. At this point, the Galaxy S7 Edge on our account could not hear the Z2 Force. Went through everything with T-Mobile support including network settings reset, factory resetting both the Samsung and Motorola phones. Didn't fix it. Meanwhile, the Z2 Force that was still on Nougat was fine. A few days later, it also updated to Oreo, and now neither Z2 Force can be heard on the Samsung. I hope they get this mess cleaned up soon since it's been a month.

It seems to be only between those two phones. Until the next update/patch is released, the workaround is to disable VoLTE in call settings on the z2.

Got AT&T update to 8.0.0 this morning.

I received notice of the Tmobile Oreo update, downloaded it, but cannot install it. It only says something went wrong and didn't install the update. I have the bootloader unlocked and Magisk installed. I followed the instructions for Magisk dual partition updates. I uninstalled Magisk using Restore Images and did not reboot. I went to System Updates and downloaded the update again. It never went to Security Update Installing, step 1. I am on Magisk v 16.0 which passes the SafetyNet check, ctsProfile: true and basicIntegity: true. At this point, should I completely uninstall Magisk, flash the OreoFlashAll.zip or the NASH_TMO_C_OCX27.109-36_subsidy-TMO-regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip? Or something different?

Let us know if you lose the animated home button as I did after the At&t update. I asked the question in the room and no one answered. Hopefully I didn't break any rules by asking here. Thank you.

Help needed

I am using a BND-L24C567B150 model. On 30th April my phone received the oreo update. I downloaded the file but when I tried to install it my phone went to reboot but once its back on nothing changes. I again tried to update the software by using 'Download latest full package' option. This time my phone downloaded a smaller file than before and once it installed and rebooted nothing changed as before.
Please help me as I know very little about android phones and don't know what to do to get the oreo update.
Thank you.

you sure it didnt work have you actually checked the version in about phone? you say you dont know much about android and oreo didnt change anything visually, only way to know is looking at the version.

i checked, its still running on the old os..

i dont think you received the oreo update. you must have received the face unlock update. to see if you truly received the oreo update get huawei firmware finder from the store and see if your device is authorized for 8.0, if it says not authorized for installation it means you didnt receive the 8.0 update as your device isnt even authorized yet.

AT&T S9 will not update to September Security update

I just got an S9 and have not been able to get it to apply all of the available updates. When I check for updates, it says that I have the latest one already. I tried the Smart Switch software and that says I am also up to date. I cleared the cache partition and then set the date to one day ahead and checked for updates. It took a few minutes checking but then it finished and said I was up to date.
My previous phone was an S8 and that phone had issues updating too. I had to go to ubreakifix to have them update the phone when Android 8 became available. After that update, my S8 never got an OTA again.
I fear that this S9 is having the same problem. I even activated the new S9 with a new sim card. I also verified that AT&T sees that I have an S9.
Anyone know what is going on? Anything else I can do to get it to update? I am currently on the previous version with baseband G960USQS3ARG8.

If you just got it, give it a week or so.

There was an S9+ that was added on another line within my account at the same time and it got all the updates right away. Hopefully time will fix mine but right now I doubt it.

Did you ever flash this to U1 Firmware? I had a similar issue when i decided to go back to U firmware. Ended up having to to revert back to an old version of U and then proceed with side loading updates from firmware science until the BR firmware (side note, the firmware i found on here to revert back to stock U did not have a direct upgrade path on Firmware science) then AT&T started updating as normal.

I have not flashed anything. This is new out of the box.

I would take it back to AT&T.

My previous phone did the same thing which is odd. I can't see why two consecutive new phones would not update for me. Is there a way I can download the update from AT&T and sideload it without having to reinstall everything?

I applied the next update from there and while it updated, it wiped my phone. now to spend a few hours again resetting everything up. i thought this wasn't supposed to wipe my phone?

Don't bother setting up your phone until you're all caught up with updates. I learned that the hard way. Just skip all the setup stuff after connecting to WiFi, then check for updates. Go back to the firmware science site if there are none available. I'm on 3BRJ6 with a November 1st security patch. This one was an OTA update after manually installing 3 or 4 from the firmware science site.
P.S. Under settings-about phone-software information do you show ATT/ATT/ATT at the bottom of the Service Provider SW ver.?

The problem with it resetting my phone is that if still continue to not receive ota updates directly, I'll never update again since I wouldn't want to reset again. As for the fw, I do see Att/att/att.
I updated up to the October security patch to see if it would offer the Nov security patch and my phone still won't offer ota updates.

Does your phone show the blue AT&T logo during boot up? Does it have all the AT&T bloatware?

Yup, it's an Att branded phone. I bought from Best buy. Came in Att box, has all the bloatware too.
Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

Then I go back to my initial recommendation that you return it. I would also consider asking AT&T if there is some way to wipe your account data clean before activating a new phone and make sure you get a new sim card.

Updates

Hope this helps someone. I had been waiting for 11 update, so I got online with oneplus chat on their website. After checking my phone IMEI and version with the person from oneplus, 11 update finally came to my phone ... Hope this helps if your phone is still on 10 and is not a carrier phone like mine.

no OTA update available here ./

The update automatically installed on my phone without any prompt, and broke root for me. I don't see it on the OnePlus either to manually patch the boot file.

i'm not even seeing the update either for android 11 on my n100, maybe it's a region specific thing or it's because i'm using the eu firmware on my global variant device.
