Security updates for Spring unlocked version? Still on December 2019 - LG G8 Questions & Answers

Sprint*
Anyone have news/or has received security updates for the LG G8? I'm on Android 10 and it says my security update is December 2019.
Manually checking updates from settings says no updates available. It's now April , what gives.?

Well you should be getting ota updates then. Just try searching for them a few more times with a few restarts and if that doesn't work try a factory reset

I just got March security patch. Xfinity version.

When owning a midrange "motonovo" device, being optimistic and having hope is the best strong suit for waiting on updates ?

I'm hoping feb 9th. My birthday lol. I've tried every ROM out there and they're all excellent, but I just can't deal with the camera. I need shutter speed and iso adjustments so pictures of things like the moon look like what we see rather than a random white dot. I haven't been able to find any ROM that does it better than a stock variant with Moto camera in professional mode, so I'm stuck on Nougat until Lenovotorola gets off their butts and gives us Oreo.
Just recieved today November patch, lol, XT1680 retar channel. Just Wondering why I was at compilation NPNS25.137-15-11 and now is NPN25.137-97.

I guess they want all phones to be on same build when they push out Oreo and onwards.

It looks like oreo is closer.. end of january or start of february probably.. unless lenovo screw up again
-------------
This security patch changelog was up since november, so there is no reason for us not to get oreo, i mean it is probably outdated.
Can anyone with XT1686 (Indian variant) post a screenshot of the build number of the latest January update?

I know that a January security patch is due tho but it won't be 137-92/93
I don't think the january patch will be released alone, it will come along with oreo mid-feb

You might be right
Does anyone know why my g5 plus hasn't been updated in so long,
It says software channel retgb and I'm still on 1st august security patch, honestly this is making me want to go back to iPhone, that's getting on for 5 months out of date for basic security.
retgb here also, security is only an issue if you use phone unwisely, in locations wifi you cannot trust, apps installed from unknown sources or dodgy websites, if not doing any of the above you should be fine.
There is only so much security you can build into any OS, the rest is down to you.

Is that the same security patch level though?
Android Security : Includes the updates of Android security patches through April 1st 2018.
So though to 1st April would be March, but not April... Unless there was a security patch on April 1st??
Edit.. Just checked and the security patch after March was on 2nd April. So the patch for G5S seems to be for March security patches also.
Just received March security patch in Poland (RETEU).
Well, i will probablu receive this patch in 10 days because RETLA is the last one receiving these patches

2nd November update (latest stock ROM image)

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!
Latest

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!

no, it's stock.
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!
I've done everything I could find online, I've changed SIMs... even countries... I can't get updates!

G965U1UEU3ARK5 Actual Changes? December 7, 2018 Update

So I just got the G965U1UEU3ARK5 update OTA. Just became available for me. It only says "improved security", and the link it gives to the change log only shows the previous update. Anyone know of the actual changes?
Is yours an unlocked phone? I have not received a December update yet on my T-Mobile S9.

December Security update, that's it.
I got the same update, but it says it's the November security patch. I already had the November patch that came in mid November. I thought maybe this was the December patch that was dated incorrectly. This is on an unlocked device in the US.

Stuck on older security patch.

Can anyone tell me which is the latest security patch on indian unit. I am stuck on february but i have heard about it getting april security patch.

I am currently on the June 1st 2019 patch. My phone is from the Netherlands, so maybe it isn't available in India.
