I'm on the NPN25.137.35 with the latest security patch level showing from January. Phone is telling me it is up to date Not sure it maters but I'm in Salt lake City, UT.
I got this update last week. I have the OTA zip if needed.

It's very typical for carriers and manufacturers (including Google for Nexus/Pixel) to do staggered rollouts of updates. It reduces server load, but more importantly, if there is a bug the people who get it early (there are typically not that many who get it early) would report the bug. Then the second batch of people getting it is bigger, then the third even bigger. Rollouts can last 3-4 weeks. I wouldn't panic. We are their beta testers.
Location probably doesn't matter. I'm based in OC, but currently in the Palm Springs area.

Hi,
Identical to the RETEU update from the last week! Still waiting for a "real" update.
Still nowt for retgb
I tried to adb sideload the zip above but I get an error. Any ideas? I dropped the name "BLUR version" and renamed the zip "update.zip"...got the error. I redownloaded and renamed to NPNS25.137-35-5...same error
Edit: here is the error message "package expects build thumbprint of 7.0/NPNS25.137-35-5/5 user release-keys or 7.0/NPN25.137-35/37 user release keys; this device has 7.0/NPN25.137-33/35 user/release -keys"
Is there another firmware that I need to download and apply first?
Edit 2: does motorola require fastboot all the files (unzipped) instead of adb? In my other phones I just put the update.zip file on the root directory and applied with stock recovery. That did not work either. Same error message.

You should probably just wait until the OTA pops up on your device.
Nothing yet for me. Pennsylvania, RETUS. Will notify once I have it available.

I'm in NYC and just got it. I installed it but it was weird, my security updates updated to May 2017, but my build number is still NPNS25.137-33-5. I checked again for updates but it said I'm current. Also, my kernel is 3.18.31 dated 5/11/2017. Did I update?

This update should contain the bugfixes up through the May security bulletins if I understand it correctly.
https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/
Started prompting me for this update last weekend on amz branch.
Im in NYC as well and just got the update. It showed as NPN25.137-35 but it said it was a 20MB download. I have the amazon prime version of the phone and once i finished the update, it still shows NPN25.137.33 and the security patch level still shows Jan1, 2017.
Now when i check for updates, software is up to date. Wierd. Anyone else experience this?
I've checked for a US g5+ support page fairly regularly since getting the phone. It hasn't even been listed on the support page until the last week or so. But, while it's finally listed.......there's only a generic Lenovo placeholder on it. Several months after the phone's release.
https://mobilesupport.lenovo.com/us/en/products/Cell-Phones/Android-Series/Moto-G-Plus-5th-Gen
I've got a Lenovo laptop......their customer service and software upgrades suck. I once sent in my rather expensive Yoga laptop for warranty trackpad repair......and they had it for two months and despite repeated checking their website and calling, I could never get an estimated repair date. Finally, they gave me a date......4 more months. I raised holy hell and they sent me a new, more recent Yoga release. The support page for the laptop seems to update with Lenovo bloatware "upgrades" fairly regularly.....but their support for more important basic drivers is pretty lacking (wifi, bluetooth and graphics drivers from 2015 and 2016, anybody? Yeah, didn't think so.). And, yeah, first thing I do when getting any new PC is a clean install with no bloatware, but Lenovo also makes it tough to keep drivers updated through forced windows updates by using hardware IDs which make it hard for you to install generic component drivers, unimportant drivers like Intel graphics drivers. So you install the latest, and a forced windows update uninstalls the Intel release and installs a mid-2016 driver for you. Thanks! So there are obscure ways to defeat that.
Oh, and then there's the touchpad Synaptics drivers (Lenovo specific) where two finger tap (right click menu) has NEVER been fixed. Takes a registry modification to fix it.
Anyway...enough venting about Lenovo/Moto poor support. I knew it when I purchased the phone, and I'd still buy it again.
Soooo.....I just bought this phone, unlocked the bootloader and installed Magisk.
Today, I got a system update notification saying Android Pie is ready to download.
Anybody else getting this and if so, I have to go back to 100% stock in order to upgrade right? Then unlock BL again?
Mine isn't showing the update yet. I've got the TA-1068. Not unlocked or anything.
It is possible someone jumped the gun, releasing it too early, and they pulled it so can't download it.
Not yet available on my nokia 6.1. I think we are a couple of weeks away from the update.

What security update level of android 8.1 are you on?
Good luck getting 100% back to stock.
I have a TA-1045 and I unlocked the bootloader and installed Magisk on the July patch of android 8.1. I get update prompts for the August security update, but the update won't install. I tried completely removing Magisk, but it stills fails with "Installation Failed". I don't think anyone has a stock recovery image (at least for TA-1045) to restore
At this point if you flash twrp/magisk you have no way of restoring to stock and accepting OTA updates. You will be stuck on the update you are on until someone figures out a way to take OTA updates or someone gets a hold of stock firmware images for your device (none yet for TA-1045)

I've was able to get back to stock recovery, system and vendor using the 1043 images and my phone still shows as a 1045. So even if removing magisk, it fails, cause I'm getting the installation failed as well. I'm curious if removing magisk and relocking the bootloader will help?

Nope - don't think its Chinse - it appears to be a "global" or international version. I don't really notice a difference from my original stock.
I got it from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...-to-flash-global-firmware-pl2-222e-0-t3831764
And was able to flash the "extracted version" with fastboot. I used some fastboot instructions that I found for a chinese rom and changed the filenames to match the worldwide filenames and it worked without the OST tool

You should have pulled the OTA link from a logcat so the rest of us can download the update files and upgrade ourselves :/
I guess this OTA is a fake. No one with a Nokia 6.1 has reported getting an Android Pie notification. It's super rare that just one single person will get it.

This. Unless OP is an insider and just dun goof'd, then I fail to see this as legit.
Slightly off-topic:
I was on the June security patch on my 6.1 until yesterday. I received an OTA notification while half asleep and got all excited thinking it was the Pie update, but no, it was the July security patch. What's interesting is that immediately after installing I received the notification for the August security patch, and promptly installed that. May just be me being lucky, but that almost imples that HMD are trying to push out the latest security updates to devices as a way of preparing for Pie maybe?

I got the July update in July and then I got the August update on August. I don't know why yours took a while to update. Mine and other that I know, get the update for the month the same month.
I've got an AT&T S9 and it's still got the February 1 security patch and says no updates are pending. AT&T's website indicates that the latest security patch they've released is July and that there was also a June update. https://www.att.com/devicehowto/tut...9?make=Samsung&model=SamsungG965U&gsi=uArWqmI
Is it possible the June update got pulled (and not removed from the AT&T website) and that for some reason the July update hasn't been released for my device yet? Can anyone shed some light on this for me? I searched and couldn't find anything regarding this.
Thanks
Idk. I got an unlocked s9 on metro pcs. I didn't get an update since June patch. Used odin updated myself. Give it a try.
I just got the August first update today I'm also on AT&T using an S9 from AT&T

Thanks for the replies everyone, but I've got an update downloading now. Here's what I did...
Background and symptoms:
- I was what I believe was the original out of the box firmware (G960USQU1ARB7 - February 2018 security patch)
- When I would check for updates i would immediately get a message that no updates were available (like it wouldn't even check really)
- I tried doing a factory reset which didn't help
Resolution:
- Used FirmwareScience to find and download the next update (G960USQU1ARBI here is the direct link)
- Followed the instructions there to install the update (placed the update.zip file on SDCard, reboot to recovery, select update from zip)
- After the update, I went back into settings to see if the next update would download and it did...it's installing now.
Void Warranty

Bought this mobile last March (Amazon.de). Ever since I have the phone I have not had any updates, no security patch and no firmware. My security patch is
from Oct 5, 2017 !! So its almost a year old which clearly is a serious safety issue. What is wrong here ?? Or am I missing something ???

This is caused by the System Updater application being updated by the Google Play store. You need to look for this application in settings, and from the play store uninstall. This removes all the non-stock updates to this application.
After you've done this, Firmware Finder should work properly without any checksum errors etc.
I've been using the lazy method of rooting my 3XL from an arriving OTA.
https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/tutorials.html
It works great, the problem is the OTA arriving. As was well publicized the December one never arrived, but the January one did. However, I never got the February so I'm still on January. I don't know if that was widespread. Finally, its now March 8 and I haven't gotten the March OTA., which is available on the factory image site. If I didn't get February automatically (and I do poll) I have to wonder if I will get March.
Is there a way to get the phone to treat a manually downloaded OTA the same way as one that was auto distributed? I know about the other ways to update and patch, but I like the OTA method.

Your phone won't apply the OTA with a modified boot image (magisk modifies it).
If you want to get updates you'll need to manually flash the full system image with the -w removed from the bat file. Head over to the guides portion of the forum for instructions.

If you look at the url at the top of the thread you will see that first you do is "Magisk Manager → Uninstall → Restore Images" before triggering the OTA install.
It does work fine, I've done it twice. The problem is that Google didn't download the OTA in December or February, and so far in March (though its early).

I did the Jan OTA update with Magisk and it worked great. I got tired of waiting for the Feb and Mar OTA's so I flashed the full Mar image yesterday. There's another thread with others having the same issue of not getting the OTA https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-3-xl/help/preparing-update-t4060613
This is happening to a lot of us. If you time it right you will see it say Preparing to update.....if you manually check before it has tried.
The preparing goes away and then it is stuck on you are up to date. Google found a way to pre check for root I think.
