Have anyone actually received the February Android Security Update or even the March one?
I'm still stuck on January on my phone.
Seems like they committed in words only but not action to bring the monthly update to their phones. Kinda disappointed.
This is the reply I got from LG Nordic on Twitter:
"Hi, We will send security patches on a monthly basis whenever necessary. If no major issues encountered during the period we will postpone any update to the following month."
Afaik there were no major issues.
Hex guys,
Why Google is Google still not rolling out the June security Patch? Samsung is rolling out this update since days and Google rolling out this patch in the middle of the month? Why does Google do this? I think they are so fast with rolling out the newest Software. (I'm using the Nexus 5X).
Lg
Google releases Android updates always first as it is their OS, after that the updates get pushed to other carriers for adjustments. So I assume the mentioned Samsung update is a delayed one from former roll outs.
No! Samsung is rolling out the June security Patch in Europe. The first country were Spain on the second of June.
thats strange as there is no June OTA on the Google developer page. so maybe its an own/independent patch.
So it seems to be not an offical security Patch? And when does the security Patch usually arrives on Nexus devices?
yes, thats what I think. normally, Nexus devices get updates first during the first quarter of the month
Usually Google provides the patches to vendors some time earlier, maybe 1-2 weeks. If the vendor is very fast testing and integrating, they can get it out faster than Google. In the past the vendors have been slower than Google, but it looks like Samsung has streamlined their release cycle.
Google's patch will probably come in the next few days.
Any news on when the february security patch is going to be released as it is coming towards the end of february.

Many of us have some personal and confidential info stored on our phones. Timely security updates are critical.
That said, has anyone gotten a security update for this phone? I haven't gotten one since I purchased it on the day it was released. I'm still on the August 1st 2020 security patch. I thought Motorola issue security patches every 2 months. I reached out to them on this but the person that I communicated with had no idea on when a security patch would be available for this phone.
I love the form factor of this phone but I think outdated security patches pose a huge risk.
I'm on se the September security update

Did you get a security update or did it come with the September security patch when you bought the phone?
Motorola also told me that the August security patch was the most up-to-date. Go figure.
To be honest, I'm not sure if there was an update when I started using the phone, or if it came that way. The phone is less than two weeks old.
No problem. Thanks for the update. I got my phone on October 2nd with the August security patch on it. No updates from Motorola since.

Did you receive any update, yet? Mine came with the August patch, and an update was available as soon as I got the basic settings dialed in. I'm on the September patch now, which is still pretty dated in comparison to my OP8Pro. No further updates, or news, as of now.
Nothing yet. Still waiting. I check almost daily.
you should have the october security update. The Retail US channel got that late in mid november (me on the 17th). I purchased directly from motorola and use t-mobile sim.
motorola does quarterly security updates it seems and when you get the update it'll be a month old.
Nothing yet. I wonder if T-Mobile is the holdup. I bought the phone from T-Mobile on release date. Perhaps Motorola released the update to T-Mobile but T-Mobile has not sent the update to my phone yet?
Motorola also said this phone will get the Android 11 update. If it's dependent upon T-mobile and if T-Mobile is the reason for the security patch delays, I'm not hopeful.
when you go to 'about phone' in settings, under 'software channel' does it say 'retail us' or something else?
If so, You could try this method:
turn the phone off, remove the sim. Connect to wifi and check for the update then.
In 'about phone' in settings, under 'software channel' it says "T-Mobile".
yea...you have to yell at t-mobile then. they're in control of your updates.
edit:
you could try and use the motorola firmware flashing tool to flash https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/smith/official/TMO/
if yours is a lower version than that (you can verify in the about phone page under firmware version)
But firmware flashing that way vs ota usually means wiping the phone when it's being done.
Finally, I got an update today...
it looks like t-mobile just pushed that firmware out (if you go by the time stamp on the link i posted). So the phone is not delayed in seeing updates, t-mobile is just super slow at pushing them out.
though, they could have a different offset for their quarterly security updates than motorolla, as they're not much slower than motorolla (2 months vs 1.5 months). Considering you got November 1st's patch at the end of december and I got october 1st's patch in mid november.
I expect the next update we see for this device will be sometime in late february. Probably not going to see the OS update until mid next year.
Yep. I finally got it yesterday.
Wow. I went from zero updates in almost 3 months to two updates in just over 3 weeks. I was on the August security patch all the way until December 28th when I finally got the October security patch. Now, just a little over 3 weeks later, I got the December security patch today...
I feel a lot better about the phone now.
It's May 2nd here and I don't think I've seen a security patch for a couple of months now...?
No March update, no April update. So many bugs exist for months, nothing has been fixed. This device is dead! Do not cherish any hopes.
For sure i am not buying a xiaomi as next phone
It is always the same, if it is not famous or follows it products line is abandonated
