Whats up with the september patch being delayed for exynos models? - Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions &

The september security patch is out for the Note 8, 9, 10 and 20 and also for S9, S10 and for alot of midrange phones like A21 and A50,51 and A70, A71 etc.. , All of these received it. And the S20 series (at least the exynos model) hasn't yet.
It makes no sense for them to release the september patch for all these devices but not for their latest S series phones which used to be the first in the line to receive these updates.
I think i heared that the SD model received it a week ago, but the exynos didnt yet, I wonder what's the reason behind this.
Could it be that the september patch will bring some improvements or something? Is it because of something related to OneUI 3 or the beta? i dont know, what do you think?

I was asking the same question today when I saw my kid's S9 receiving the September security patch but my S20+ still nothing....
What's going on Samsung????

I hope Samsung gives us aBIG BIG SURPRISE...
HOPE HOPE HOPE...

S20 G981W (snapdragon) no September sec update yet either, unlocked Canadian (Bell) device

i think is because they released the one ui 2.5 on august 29th - they need time to have this big update settle before they can push the September in case there are any bugs to fix

with this middle-end phone ,i don't think at all ( at 100%) that these A series 2017 will have this big O 8.x update in the future ...
it will be reserved for note8 ,s8 (s8,s8+,s8edge)...and future note9 ,s9 series, A series 2018 & J series 2018....and "maybe" s7 (but i don't think so !!!!)

I've read an article before that we A7 2017 users will have a Oreo update.
I believe that A 2017 series will get oreo due to the fact that A 2016 series got nugat.
@kukom6 @Jubremelle
i have said my opinion ,because Samsung is not great at all with android ...but i hope that i'm totaly wrong and you tell the truth .
Nougat is jusy released ,the begining of a veeeryyyy looooong time and many future updates with this android... :silly:
But there are one thing very very irritating !!!! : there are N 7.1.2 released (and eventual future others).....and Samsung as usual, have a very big chance to stay all the time with N 7.0 on theirs phones !!!!!!
Samsung and some others manufacturers don't like Android at all ... it's just a free open-source support for to save money and don't spend energy to develop a phone operating system ...and generalize the Playstore and the big business of apps development ...
Samsung have their habit to upgrade the OS only once, and move on to the next model. companies benefits themselves, not their customers. this is how economics works.
Samsung hate the existance of custom roms, such as Lineage OS, Omni, etc. they hate the fact that a customer can extend his phone life cycle, instead of buying a new shiny phone.
Samsung only publish their source code due to obligation to Google.
I used to have a Galaxy S2 which was a flagship, and originally came with Android 2.3.7, then they released an upgrade to 4.1.2, which was so bad and buggy, and couple of months later they released the Galaxy S3, which caused the S2 to die immediately in terms of support.
So... no. no official Oreo from samsung for you guys.
So, how you explain that Samsung release Marshmallow and then Nugat for A3 2016 which was in the same position (f.e. as A3 2017 now) ? I think that two major updates (nugat, oreo) for A3 are real but with a time delay (of course, a3 will be at the end of the portfolio for update).
But still, It's only my opinion.
Up till now, not all region got Nougat update yet and you ask for Oreo? it all depends on Samsung decision, but in reality just wait

We will get Oreo, 2016 series got Nougat, so there is no reason, that we wont have an Oreo update. The real question is: how it will run.
There are 2 major Android upgrades for each Samsung phones. We only got one. So yes, we will get Oreo. They haven't finished it for the S8, so don't count on it before at least a year, since we only got 7 now.

LG Update History Myth

I have seen a lot of people say that they would not get the V30 or any LG phone because they suck at updates. I knew this was not entirely true from when I owned a G3 the updates were actually pretty good. I remember specifically the G3 being the first non-Google phone to get Lollipop update.
So I thought maybe their updates have gotten worse and decided to do some research. The best way to tell how good updates will be in the V30 is to see how the updates were on the V phone which has been out for a good while. Of course that's the V10. So here are my findings of the update history for the V10 which will likely indicate how the V30 updates will be.
Unlocked models:
Released November 2015
Upgraded from 5.1.1 to 6.0 March 2016
Upgraded from 6.0 to 7.0 on July 2017
Latest Security Patch September 2017 or possibly newer
T-Mobile model
Released October 2015
Upgraded from 5.1.1 to 6.0 on April 2016
Upgraded from 6.0 to 7.0 on July 2017
Latest Security Patch September 2017
AT&T model
Released October 2015
Upgraded from 5.1.1 to 6.0 on April 2016
NEVER upgraded to 7.0 still today
Verizon
Released October 2015
Upgraded from 5.1.1 to 6.0 on March 2016
NEVER upgraded to 7.0 still today
CONCLUSION: past updates for the V10 released 2 years ago shows if you buy a V30 on T-Mobile or unlocked version then you will receive updates and security patches for up to 2 years. If you purchase on Verizon or AT&T then updates will only be for about 1 year.
So from this actually LG is very good with updates!! People just think they are not because it is Verizon and AT&T who are the ones holding back updates.
Also 1 additional note, the V10 was never released on Sprint, but the V30+ was, and Sprint has a very good update history. So the V30+ will likely receive 2 years of updates on Sprint too. Unfortunately their network is the worst.
Hopefully this clears up the myth that LG doesn't update their phones. The only thing they are bad at is taking a few months to release the update after Google has released the update (which most companies do), but they do still push out the updates for 2 years. It's the 2 biggest carriers Verizon and AT&T that do not, or at least did not with the V10. Therefore giving the perception LG is bad at updates when theyre not.
You forgot the H870 which is still on July patch, same happened with G5 H850 last year.
LG is good with major updates for speed, for patches and minor updates is one of the worst.
- edit -
Just realized that all those data are about the V10... Why? Use more recent phones for right comparison at least, anyway you can sum up the LG updates year like this:
- Release-November: One update for two months
- November-December: Major update
- January-end of the updates: random
Just curious, what's so important about not getting security updates? What would happen if we don't receive it?

Probably because you're out of the 2 years support xD
my sister LG G5 last android security update is on Apr 2017.
suck at update? you bet.
As we said, horrible. Especially the Nougat (7.0) updates.
Nougat 7.0 was released by Google in August 2016.
Oreo 8.0 was released by Google in August 2017.
So, those LG V10 phones below that got Nougat in July 2017 had to wait 11 months (July 2017) after Google released Nougat in August 2016, to get it on their phones -- just one month before Oreo 8.0 was released by Google. Some of the LG V10 phones still have never received it -- over 14 months now? Even for those who got Nougat, it shouldn't take 11 months after OS release for an LG flagship phone to get that version. And those that never got it?
When Nougat 7.0 was released in August 2016, the V10 was LESS than 1 year old, having been released in October 2015. When Nougat was released in August 2016, the V20 had not yet been released. It was STILL the newest, most current "V" by LG. See what I mean?
The 2016 LG V20 was LAUNCHED with Nougat on board. But for some reason the LG V10 didn't get Nougat until almost a year after that -- July 2017.
I'm buying a carrier unlocked model, so there's no excuses about ROM OS updates. Those updates will come straight from LG. I hope they do better with the LG V30. I'll be rooted, running a custom ROM -- but to keep DAC and full camera features it may have to be stock-based custom ROM. That worries me...

I used the V10 instead of V20 because it's been out for 2 years. Therefore it is the only V phone released that can give us an update what updates will be like for 2 years. The V20 can only give us 1 year of update history to look at for comparison.

Technically LG released 7.0 in May 2017 for unlocked in Korea. But then it took T-Mobile another 3 months. So only 8 months can technically be blamed on LG, which yes is still way too long. Also you can't use "some​ of the V10s" not getting the update, as a excuse why LG is bad with updates. Any day passed the day LG updates the unlocked model, then those days or months can only be blamed on the carrier the phone came from.
Also keep in mind the unlocked V20 and the t-mobile V20 are on the 2nd newest security update right now, September 2017. Something I didn't mention in my original post. So that's a really good sign too.
Although yes, I totally do not blame you from buying unlocked. It is the fastest with updates. However surprisingly T-Mobile is able to usually be right behind with in a month of LG.
So in summary LG updates their flagships with updates for 2 years! Except they can lag months behind in pushing out the updates. Hopefully with V30 being the most popular V phone yet this will make them more eager to push out the updates faster.

I used exactly the same examples you gave, and your examples are 11 months and "never" for Nougat.
There's no excuse for "11 months" (from LG for carrier unlocked version) to "never" (even if carriers may be partly to blame) for a flagship phone, when it was still the only "V" phone when Nougat was released, and the V20 launched with Nougat.
If you don't want to use carrier examples, why do you cite them yourself?
But when LG's behavior to the carrier unlocked version for the Nougat update is very bad.
If following the same timeline as the V10, we'll get Oreo when March 2018?
Peach Pie in July 2019?

Multiple reasons! It was for comparison purposes. To demonstrate in the case of V10 not getting the 7.0, then it was carrier faults. Also for comparison to demonstrate LG pushed out updates a little faster than carriers. Also to compare each carrier to show which carrier was the fastest with updates. But not used to put blame on LG, because LG has no control over when the carrier updates once they give out the update of the unlocked version.
Lastly it wasn't 11 months, it was technically 8 months for unlocked version. My original post it was a mistake, i changed it from July to May. Articles announce the unlocked update May 2017. Although yes 8 months is still​ way too long. I never seen LG take that long for a major update though. So maybe it was a fluke.

Haha! Yeah that's pretty accurate if you go based off the V10. However when the V20 gets Oreo will be a sign as to how fast we will get Android P. So keep an eye out for that.
Overall LG is far from the worst manufacturer​ with updates, but also far from the best. They are about middle of the pack. However when a device sells well (such as the V30 seems to be) it encourages companies to be faster with updates and support because theres way more people to disappoint.
For example my girlfriend's Sony Z3 from T-Mobile back in the day stopped updates after 5.0 when Sony went to at least 6.0. T-Mobile explained to me it was because they didn't sell much of the devices, so its not worth their time and money to invest research and development for updates of a phone that sold much less than other phones. That makes sense from a business perspective and that is the way these phone companies think.
So with that in mind I think its safe to say the V30 is going to be the best selling V phone so far. Possibly even sell close to as much as the G6. Especially if they drop the price about $200 in early 2018. So that increases the chances of LG wanting to develop more time and resources into the device because it's selling so well!

Your original post shows U.S. unlocked got Nougat in July 2017. I live in U.S.and will be buying U.S.carrier unlocked version.
Do you have a link showing the corrected date?
And yes, Motorola is very bad with updates too. I'm only on Nougat because of custom ROM.

Yep! 3 unlocked v10 models received the nougat update may 2017. I corrected my original post to may.
Here is the link ans it list the 3 model numbers that got it in may. Again still a long time, but 3 months earlier than the only carrier that updated it.

CHAZZ, the speaker of truths!
this honestly was my hesitation in picking up the V30. my previous phone was the Nexus 6P and I LOVED being able to install the newest latest and greatest as soon as it dropped.
Phone manufactures really are doing themselves a disservice by not just dropping a vanilla ROM update asap and a branded OS as they see fit. They could simply omit those fancy features they bake into their ROMs.
Phone manufactures, want consumers to buy their phones for the experience...why?...why not attract consumers for the phone itself as well as the "experience". At that point you'll have 2 lines of consumers ready to buy your product. It's like when HTC? initially released some phones, they had their carrier branded phones that were spiffied up, and you could register that phone for for a developer account allowing you to install vanilla Android.

Hmmm.. As you said, only South Korea models got it in May. Those are carrier models, sold in South Korea. Everyone else got it later.
The only caveat is the update is now being deployed in South Korea only.

The official carrier unlocked version -- which is eligible for bootloader unlock code -- is not the same as those three South Korea carrier models.
I'm curious when the official carrier unlocked version got it. This model, which is listed on the LG Developer Bootloader Unlock list.
LG V10 H960A
http://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev?categoryId=CTULRS0703
And the answer is July 14, 2017:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v10/general/official-software-h960a-v30b-nougat-t3636552/page1
So, your original email was correct, it was 11 months after Nougat was released before the official carrier unlocked version got the update.
I think since LG is including that two year warranty with most of our purchases on T-Mobile (thanks to the promo), I'd think we will see updates during that period.

Well, with root (on the bootloader unlocked models) you can have custom ROMs. There will be plenty of dev work. The LG V30 will probably get Oreo ROMs before LG officially releases Oreo. This discussion is just if you want LG updates.
I'm just concerned about DAC and camera features. So, I may have to stay on stock-based ROM (debloated, tweaked, rooted), instead of LOS-based ROM. I don't know enough information yet.

I'm not familiar with rooting and roms with lg. I've only done that with Nexus and pixel devices. Are they similar processes? Pixels and Nexus was very easy

N976B - update schedule.

Hi All. I recently got a Note 10+ 5G, N976B. I'm in the EU. How does this model do in terms of updates? How far are we behind the regular N975F!?). One UI 2.1 may be nice to have Thanks.
Yep - it's invariably later. Keep an eye on the main thread where we put release notifications.

Just received and installed the OTA. In terms of updates, I'd say the N976B on par with the N975F
Interesting, no May 2020 patch for GN 976B. Two weeks behind at least. Wondering if Samsung is neglecting 5G devices...
nope that's just the way it is, I run a rom for both 5F and 6B variants of the plus
5g is just 2 weeks later and that's all lol that's just the way its always been on this device

Software update 212.11 MB

Looks like my Tmobile variant already got an update

I updated. It's not a giant issue but when I go touch or hold down to move icons it's really sensitive. Half the time I end up in move icon mode trying to long press to uninstall.
October security patch released for all S20 devices, except the S20 FE 5g. Looks like the S20 FE 5g is the black ship of Samsung
If this is the way Samsung is going to treat the S20 FE 5g, might as well return the device.....

October security patch released for all S20 devices, except the S20 FE 5g. Looks like the S20 FE 5g is the black ship of Samsung

Yeah starting to feel the same way. Wonder how long it will be till we see it.

Will the A70 get android 12?

Please can someone tell me if the A70 will get android 12 update? S10 is officially getting android 12 and the A70 was released after the S10, also it was a quiet expensive device so I don't see why it won't get the update.
Samsung promised 3 OS updates for the S series, starting from S10. It also promised 4 years of security updates (only 2 OS) for every phone launched in 2019 and beyond.
No OEM loves long-term supports. It's bad for business. So there's no official One UI 4.x for the A70.
But that's why we're here. Of course there'll be some unofficial ports. And it'll be exciting.

S10 series was released in early 2019 even before A70 was released and will still get android 12 so why not the A70? They said they will give A series 3 major OS updates like S series and then they just decide not to do that! This is unacceptable.
EDITED
Maybe that is to force you to buy new phones, I am not sure.

The official word from Samsung was to give their flagship Galaxy S-series five years of support, like Apple, that is 3 major OS updates, and two years of support.
The official word for phones released in 2019 and beyond is to give them 4 years of support, 2 major OS updates, and 2 years of security updates.
Understand this. The 3 major updates are only for the S-series (possible the Note, too) as of Samsung's official essay. That means neither the A-series nor the M-series are included.
That doesn't mean there's no chance we might not get Android 12, officially. But, even if that happened, it'll not be soon. That's how business works. Push people to buy the next phone.
In my country, I can trade my phone with an S10 for less than 50$. Maybe you should buy an S10 if you really want 12.
There was 3 major updates, mine has come with android 9, then 10 and now 11...
