T Mobile rolled out a huge September security patch today for the S9 and S9+.
Check your baseband.

I just noticed a new QR code button in the Contacts app on my T-Mobile S9 after the update.

What other UI changes have you noticed? I see the charging animation on my T-Mobile S9 also.

AT&T put it out a few days ago, too. Got CSH9 on my regular S9. Got the charging animation change and night mode for the camera... finally.
Haven't noticed much else since I use very few of Samsung's default apps.

Software Version update to 5.0.2/ Build LWX49K

Hi All. I was wondering how many others have started getting the 5.0.2 update? (I was lazy and instead of taking screenshots... I just took some quick pics with my phone of the update info to post for anyone interested).
I received the update this evening and tried to find some information about the changes through an internet search. The update looks to be fairly minor and what I found says it should provide bug fixes and an update to Google Play services. Most of the info I've found discusses the update rolling out for the Moto 360, but I also found people who are reporting their LG G Watch R got the update too.
So far, the update is running smooth for me with no problems. I'm hoping it will continue to work well. I'm loving my Sony Smartwatch 3 and I'm glad to see that we got the update so quickly. :good: I just thought I'd check to see who else got the update and see how it's running for them.
Yes, I also got my update this morning, but am not sure what is new or updated...
Got it at Malaysia, about 3pm....
Waiting for the update...
What about this compass problem:

Seems to be solved?
Dumb question time. Does the watch get the update via bluetooth or do you connect it to your PC via usb.
I am in Australia and my watch says it is up to date on 5.0.1 so I guess it is on it's way downunder sooner or later.
I'm just gettinh this update.

I received the update wirelessly without plugging it in to the computer (I'm guessing by bluetooth). The watch just gave a notification to swipe left to install the update. I read on one website where the watch should be charged to at least 80%... but I don't know if it has to be charged that that much to get the update. Im guessing that like other OTA'S, the update is being released in phases, so it's hard to say exactly when each person will get the update.

Wow... I didn't realize there was a problem with the compass since I don't really use it. I see where you also posted on the Sony forum to ask if the update fixes the problem. Hopefully someone will be able to respond quickly. If I get some time, I'll try to test it out.... but it will probably be a while.
Got this tonight, in Australia.
First thing I noticed is tilt to wake is way better... is it just me? I used to have to do ridiculous contortions to make the screen wake previously.

No update showing on my watch here in Adelaide, that is weird.
It must have gotten blown in on the cyclone but typical Adelaide, backwards.
I haven't ether in U.S (florida)
Got the notification around 20 minutes ago here in Oregon, USA. It looks like the update was delivered "OTA" to the watch via BlueTooth in the background, as I did not have to sit there and watch a download progress meter. My first inclination that there was an update was when the watch gave me a notification saying "Update ready to be installed!". Of course I swiped left only to be told I need to charge up first
I've got my watch charging now, will install ASAP. Annoying that there is no official changelog or blog post explaining what is new / fixed, just speculation.

Yeah, I was hoping to find a changelog somewhere too.... but it looks like there isn't one available from what I've seen.
Here's a link to an Android Police article that someone posted in the Android Wear forum with a little more info about the update: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=58953763

Not really that strange.. they send the updates out based on hardware batches... it has little to do with geographical locations..
for the record I haven't seen the update yet either, in Perth WA
I've got mine last night , here in italy, after messing up/ stressing my poor smartwatch 3 i reset the watch.. tried to install " new update " via Sony Pc companion.. than reset it again.. in the end the " poor " watch gave up and sent me " downloading update " ...
i didn't notice anything " new " so probably some fixes !

Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+ Marshmallow Update

Just wanted to let anyone on the Verizon variant to start looking. My phone is currently downloading the update as we speak. The update was originally only for the S6 and S6 Edge on Verizon with no release date for the Edge+. I am receiving it OTA.

Wish I had better luck with my update. Mine keeps getting an error 402 when I try to install the update. I tried to use the Verizon software upgrade assistant software but it keeps saying my phone is updated already.
I am having the same error 402 problem. I have tried clearing the cache, factory reset, updating via the upgrade assistant, etc. No luck so far on anything I have tried.
I have been talking with Verizon support all day but still no luck. I will post back if I find a solution.
Is there a reason firmware files are impossible to find for this model? I'm using mine on at&t and can't upgrade the normal way so I'm guessing my only shot would be to borrow someone's Verizon sim card. Was hoping Smart Switch would trigger the upgrade like it has in the past.

Same here
First time poster. Anyone having issues with doze not working on this variant? Getting 10-20% drain nightly. Was having mediaserver keep it awake draining 30%. After finding and uninstalling the app causing that Gsam showing hish usage by the system. Doze have never turned on since downloading update. And I too had the download problems on the OTA. First attempt took 4 hours and got to 99% and failed. Second attempt took about as long but finally worked.
Only issue I've found so far is the default gallery does not show Downloaded images, and yet when I plug the phone into my laptop I can see them in the Download directory. I had to download another gallery called QuickPic, which is a ton better than the factory gallery, and it displays everything as it should.
Other than that, I had no problems with the download or update. I downloaded OTA via WiFi on the phone itself and installation went smoothly. Battery life is significantly better with its default "snooze" mode it goes into when the phone is idle for a period of time.

Oh, and OneDrive doesn't seem to be working. It's not syncing images like it was on KitKat. I tried Refreshing it to no avail. Gonna' try to reinstall it. Google Drive works perfectly fine, though.
*EDIT*
An uninstall and reinstall fixed that sync issue.
Update Marshmallow G928V
I brought s6 edge plus (SM-G928V) Verizon unlocked phone and I am using T mobile connection on phone.
So the problem is : My phone doesn't show any marshmallow update. I think, its because of T mobile sim .Since, i am not using Verizon connection.
I tried to update the phone with samsung smart switch. When i connect the phone with SMart switch, it does show the Marshmallow update but when i click on update it nothing happens.
I searched for Verizon marshmallow FirmWare link for s6 edge plus, but i could not find any ?
Could you please sent me link so that i can update with Odin or is there any other way to update it.
Just some help
Heya folks, I bought a sparkling new Verizon galaxy s6 edge plus at a lucrative price of USD 350. It's unlocked and I'll be using in India I just bought it because of the sale price.
Now do I understand that Verizon version has locked bootloader and no root at all. Will they give bootloader anytime in the future? Also does one need a Verizon Sim card for getting updates? I'll be using in India how will I get updates then? Anyone else who has bought unlocked version pls help me. Cheers folks thanks a ton.

No reason to be sad that you got security patches. With everything that's been going on, I want my phone as secure as possible. I'm glad Samsung and Verizon are basically doing a monthly patch of the S7 line. Shows they want to keep the phones secure.
I'm getting wierd page redraw issues with Nova launcher since this update

H93220j Rolling out to TMo V30s

Reads: Provides various bug fixes and system improvements
I'll be visiting LG Bridge after work...
I dont have it :/
Yeah saw this too. I checked LG Bridge a few times yesterday and today and it is not available yet.
Yup, saw this and *tried* to jump on it... guess I try to get it at 0400 every day or so, or wait for someone who managed to get it to upload it somewhere else like last time!
Live now on Bridge
Yup it's live on LG Bridge. I'm updating as I'm writing this. Bridge tells me that the download is 2.83 GB.
The changelog mentions the Google security update and some improvements to ringtone/notification sound/Sound effects.
Update: The update through Bridge worked fine. Took about 10 minutes or so. My phone is now on the June 1, 2018 security patch level (and still Android 8.0.0). Haven't had time yet to look for noticeable changes.
My post from another thread early this morning:

T-Mobile is rolling out an updated OREO for V30 starting yesterday (June 27).
T-Mobile announces new LG V30 update
June 27, 2018
https://www.tmonews.com/2018/06/t-mobile-lg-v30-new-update/
One month after T-mobile restarted its Oreo update rollout, a new update has been released.
T-Mobile has announced an update for its LG V30 that bumps the device up to version H93220j. The update is still based on Android 8.0 and includes “various bug fixes and system improvements.”

So, NO it's not 'P" (I know someone is going to ask!) No V30 is going to get P until the Korean carrier variants get P.
It's just an update to make really sure you never get root! "They're getting too close!"
The auto brightness seems less terrible. It's at 27% vs the normal 3% in my morning bedroom.
Wow guys. June security patch from LG in the month of June?
Um, I'm scared.... Is the apocalypse upon us?

But this is the full image KDZ, not the partial image OTA that rolled out two weeks ago.
I updated my TMO V30+ when notified, and ever since my phone has had issues waking from the fingerprint reader. Anyone else? I'd been using the original 8.0 release via LG Bridge with absolutely no issues.
Argh!
Mine got the update yesterday. I had the original release of the Oreo that got pulled (from Bridge), but since it had some bugs, I was glad to see this one finally showed up. Hopefully they did work out the issues from before. I would occasionally get the sound of Assistant activating, even if the phone was just sitting on a table in complete silence.
All H932 firmware files can be found at All-in-One OEM Firmware Stop, also if you are having to many issues with Oreo you can revert back to Nougat:silly:, Oreo and Nougat for the H932 are both ARB0, also have the latest LGup and LG Bridge downloads.
BUG ALERT! BUG ALERT! BUG ALERT! Some of you may already know this, there is a serious BUG in this H93220J update, at least for T-Mobile V30 phones, and possibly other carrier models too.
Bug symptoms happens to those who use messaging apps other than the baked-in one and the non-baked-in messaging app is set as the default messaging app. Some, but not all, incoming text messages get misdirected to the baked-in app even when it is not set as the default messaging app. Furthermore, the misdirected text messages can't be deleted and some texts from the past somehow come back to life on the list of messages even if they had been deleted long ago. This is a serious problem for many, including our office which has eight of these phones, all having this issue. By the way, Factory Reset does not resolve the issue.
If you use a third party app as your default, you might want to check the baked-in messaging app to see if you are experiencing this bug. If you are experiencing this bug please contact your carrier and report it, as that's the only way it will get addressed.
Thanks for reading!
Running Android messages on mine along with my wife's v30 on T-Mobile and we don't have any problems.
Try installing carrier Services from the play store. It integrates SMS at least with Android messages.
H93220k is ready for pull. Check your updates.

Update 52.1.A.3.49

Hello community,
has anybody seen and tested already update 52.1.A.3.49 for XZ2 compact? I found that version on https://xpericheck.com/device/H8324 but I don't know where and how to download (I cannot register or login to that homepage)......
Update: I've just saw that is also available in Flashtool/Xperifirm. So I can download, but how to install via flashtool (open bootloader)?
Greetings Odiad
I received it today. Haven't noticed anything significant yet, so probably just security updates
still no gesture navigation.

Thanks it means a lot to me, well I can tell you a way to test if the issue is gone or not, you would have to record several voice notes until in the middle of one the volume goes down and be aware that in the next voice note the problem could not appear, as it just happens randomly.
The voice note issue was already fixed in the last Update, at least for me.
On this version I haven't noticed any issues yet. The only problem I had was, that I couldn't send any WhatsApp messages yesterday, but this Update fixed it. Maybe, a restart would have fixed it too, but don't know
Hello!
So, with this new update, finally no bugs on Android 10?

Yesterday WhatsApp had a failure in a lot of countries, so it was not the phone's fault.
After one day use I can say almost all, including battery life, is okay.
Regarding Bluetooth issue I was able to send a file from my XZ2C to another Android mobile, but I was not able to connect/pair to other phone. After one or two seconds the connection was off. So this failure is not fixed.
is the touch issue still there
the notification bar pulls down itself

Unfortunately it happened again. Even sometimes the phone slows down suddenly and after a couple of seconds it works properly again. I think that is the reason why the audios are cut. It also happened to me when I was archiving chats, when I selected them the notification bar suddenly appeared.

Yeah sadly the touch issue with the notification bar is still happening, what I do when I experience that is just block and unblock the phone and that fixes the problem for some hours, this issues happens to me one ot twice a day, I updated to Android 10 and then made a downgrade to Android 9 but my phone was never the same again

I've been experiencing such slow downs as well even since I bought my cellphone, even the first month of use, it restarted itself after getting frozen for some seconds while I was using whatsapp and then did the same 3 or 4 times during this year. Btw just block and unblock the phone and the touch issue will disappear for some hours (it worked for me)

Mmm i thought that it was a problem that other noticed that maybe It can be solved with a restare. i think that i Will give It a shot to the support
I contacted them, He suggested me to use Xperia companion app for restore the software xD. So should i? XD
In case of this, can i restore my all apps and settings automatically? Or I could encounter problems bugs and other stuffs?
I got this update yesterday. Everything seems to be going fine and the fingerprint scanner seems more responsive with the screen off.
However I'm noticing an odd 'app' sometimes open in the app switcher 'x Google enrollment ' . I'm not sure if it has anything to do with the update but this is the first I'm noticing it. Any idea what it is or does. If I tap it nothing happens. And after clearing it shows up randomly few hours later.
