So I just got the Galaxy Tab S4 SM-T830...
Currently, it's sitting on Android Ver. 8.1.0
Build No. M1AJQ.T830XXU1ARH5
Android Security Patch June 1, 2018
It's asking me to update to the T830XXU2ARJ3 Build Number Oct. 1, 2018 Security Patch...
Do I take the update? I don't want to lock down the device by accepting anything that I shouldn't. I might want to root and install custom ROMs in the future, so that's why I'm asking first.
Thanks in advance!

I have not rooted or installed TWRP. I did upgrade my SM-T835C to U2ARJ3 and I have "OEM Unlock" available in Developer mode. Again I am all official right now. (I have not decided if I want to break AirWatch with this tablet yet or not ) Now if there was a way to keep AirWatch Hub working then that would make want to root faster!
Can anyone confirm whether taking the update will prevent future flexibility with rooting, non stock ROMS etc? Also, can anyone shed any light on what updates/improvements/benefits the update includes (outside of security patch)? Any insight much appreciated!
Sorry to bump but still very curious! Been checking this thread for updates since I asked a while back. Any noteworthy improvements? Still haven't updated.
I didn't even think about the bootloader version before installing TWRP. I just installed it today on T830XXU2ARK4. After installing TWRP, trying to boot into android caused a bootloop until I installed magisk.

I just bought this phone yesterday, mostly because it is supposed to have nougat available. When I try to update I get the message that I have the latest software, but it's August security patches. When I try to flash any updates in recovery through ADB I get errors. Can anyone help me out here?
What is your software channel? If It's RETUS, we should get it tomorrow.

you need to be at the December patch before you can install Nougat.
you can download the security patches from https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z-play/how-to/moto-z-play-reteu-firmware-otas-t3557917

I'm not sure if you have to flash just the latest patch or whether you have to flash all that are available before you flash Nougat (Blur_Version.24.231.19.addison.retail.en.US)
Blur_Version.24.41.25.addison.retail.en.US is the August 2016 patch. this is what's on your phone now.
Blur_Version.24.41.47.addison.retail.en.US is the October 2016 patch
Blur_Version.24.211.9.addison.retail.en.US is the November 2016 patch
Blur_Version.24.221.12.addison.retail.en.US is the December 2016 patch

I tried to flash every single ota and always get an error. For example, this is the error i get when trying to flash the October 2016 patch:
Do I need to mount the system?

Other one didn't take.

I just got my phone on Thursday from Best Buy and I'm having the same issue as you. I even have the same fingerprint, which doesn't match up to any of the finger or thumb prints in the OTAs that were linked. That is the issue here. I'm trying to decompile the October OTA, change the required thumbprint (which is why it is failing), re-zip and sign the OTA. In theory it should work but I can not get the signature on the OTA to stick. If I figure it out, I will post a link to the new file. But if I can't and you figure out a way to force the OTA, let me know. Thanks!!!
I'm probably going to just give up and unlock my bootloader tomorrow and flash linage or something. Kind of ticked that this phone won't take updates. Either that or return it for a G5.
I just got the notification for the update, guess I'll give it a shot.

You got that from settings > about? That's from the ROM base. You could update firmware to get any that are provided for that, but otherwise you'll have to wait for the developer to update the ROM with a new base.
Truthfully though, it's nothing to worry about. Concern with new possible exploits are mostly overblown. They are discovered by security companies and more times than not, hackers haven't discovered it themselves yet.
Got it, thanks bro!
Hello all,
Have an unlocked rooted Moto G5 Plus here on T-Mobile currently running stock NPN25.137-33 (Nougat 7.0 - January 1, 2018 security patch) and I just received this update notification for a VoLTE fix named NPN25.137-35. It's relatively small (~48mb) , here's hoping one of the more experienced devs can incorporate this into their Nougat ROM's moving forward and also hopefully make a TWRP flashable zip for those of us who just want to upgrade their stock rooted roms.
Cheers!

My system info (pre-patch, of course):
If I flash this I will get my IMEI back or no? I didn't understand sir????
A little confused by this as well, your screenshot is showing January 2017 security patch and your ota is an old one. Are you just now getting this update through TMobile? Glad I bought the unlocked version if that's the case

Just wanted to contribute in case this OTA wasn't already out there (couldn't find it in my searches). I know that the current stock ROM version is 93-4 with the March security patch being pushed out to some regions...wanted to share the patch in case it wasn't pushed to other carrier versions so that it could help add robustness to existing Nougat ROMS, especially for VoLTE TMO users.
Wait.. this is a very old update.. the newer updates have NPNS instead of NPN
Edit: just read your comment, ignore this
Can someone that has the 2nd november update on their phone check if the version V9.6.10.0.ODLMIFF is the latest stable ROM?
I have the October update and I am experiencing battery life problems, so I need to update. If this is not the latest updated ROM, than can someone point out where to find it.
Thanks!

Yes, This Is The Latest One.
i have OPM1.171019.019.V9.6.11.0.ODLMIFF its 2nd november patch with new fingerprint gestures
Thank you! Any ideas where I could find the latest rom? It's not posted on the http://en.miui.com yet.
No problem, maybe you need install last one from miui forum and then update it trough OTA. Bcs they bit slow in releaseing it... Last post about Mi A2 Lite ROM i found is this: en.miui.com/thread-4400899-1-1.html
Is there any changelog for updates?
I can't find new gesture bro. How can i get it?

No new gestures for me, only camera with power button.
I have OPM1.171019.019.V9.6.11.0.ODLMIFF your patch from November 1
How many November 2018 updates are there? It seems there are 2. Is this correct? I see a reference to November 1 and another to November 2. So, there are 2 updates, I think. I am asking because I have the latest update, I think. From the the "System" settings I copied this build number: opm1.171019.019.v9.6.11.0.odlmiff. What is odd is that the phone says: "Your system is up to date, Android version 8.1.0, security patch level: November 1, 2018. It does not say security patch November 2, 2018.
I had my phone set for automatic updates, so I never noticed if it updated once or twice.
Can anyone make this clearer to me?

Check the build date of your kernel. Should say November 12 for the second November update.
I got my phone yesterday, and received the October update immediately, however no sign of a November update! Is there something I need to do? I keep checking for updates but nothing is coming! I've also restarted the phone, changed sim, but no November love for me!

There is no security update other than November 1, 2018 with the build number V9.6.11.0. But if you are a beta tester or anyhow updated your phone to Android Pie then in that case you can get November 5, 2018 security update.

Maybe I wasn't clear! When I check for updates I get a message that my phone is up to date!

Hi, I just bought a new MZP, still on v6.0, Magisk rooted and TWRP installed.
I have disabled system upgrade to avoid battery drain in 7 or 8. My question is, how do I get security upgrade if I stay on V6? Is there flashable zip from Moto?
Thanks for any tips,

No way to do this, especially on stock rom, to get the last security update from motorola (which is Little older) you will need to update all system updates from them, standalone security updates os feature that get announced on android q which is not officially update by motorola.
