no, i just ask if there's some news with the battery with these update - does google will do something?

As far as i have read about it online, it mostly says various vulnerability fixes. Rest have to wait for the update to check ourselves that is it really battery friendly or not.

thank you,
and about the question in gmail?

How would we know if the update hasn't been released yet?

Is there a specific day of the month these updates drop....or is it usually just at some point early in the month? I've been looking for dates the last few days trying to figure out the schedule but it hasn't been as easy as I thought it'd be. I believe February's dropped on the 5th. That's the only one with a date I could find.

I think the monthly security updates are be released on the first Monday of a month.

It's not a theory, that is how Google releases updates

But the Now playing server side changes for Pixel 2(XL) / Pixel (XL) is out now.
Check settings - sounds - Now playing. There is the now playing history. At least it is something

March update???

This is supposed to be an Android One phone. Last security update was near the end of February and is listed as the February 1 update. I love the phone but Nokia needs to do a better job of putting out timely updates. Has anyone who is on stock software received an update dated after February 1?

I don't know what there doing maybe there just going to wait until the April security patch because the last security update was late so maybe there going to start with April and keep up with it after that

I got the March update a couple of days ago. (eu)
Maybe there is something wrong with the rollout in your area?

Not sure how you got the March update. I went to Nokia's website and the last one posted is still February 2019. This is for the 6.1

Same here, got it late last week. It's not just a security update though, had some other changes as well.

Updating at the moment....

Updated here this morning.
Seems like app switching is MUCH smoother. Seems like it's not uncaching things so quickly. I like...

Just got updated to March 1 security patch in NA. It is a large OTA, a little over 500 MB, so more than just a security patch bump.
Mine is still killing background apps aggressively; not seeing any improvements to memory management or unbundling of the onerous task killer.
So far the only difference I've noticed is that instead of showing 4G in the status bar when connected to a 4G network, it now shows 4G with LTE to the right it oriented vertically. Thanks to T-Mobile and the other American telco's for calling HSPA+ "4G" 7 or 8 years ago instead of the 3.5G or so it was and continuing to confuse consumers with their marketing BS.

Security updates?

Many of us have some personal and confidential info stored on our phones. Timely security updates are critical.
That said, has anyone gotten a security update for this phone? I haven't gotten one since I purchased it on the day it was released. I'm still on the August 1st 2020 security patch. I thought Motorola issue security patches every 2 months. I reached out to them on this but the person that I communicated with had no idea on when a security patch would be available for this phone.
I love the form factor of this phone but I think outdated security patches pose a huge risk.

I'm on se the September security update

Did you get a security update or did it come with the September security patch when you bought the phone?
Motorola also told me that the August security patch was the most up-to-date. Go figure.

To be honest, I'm not sure if there was an update when I started using the phone, or if it came that way. The phone is less than two weeks old.

No problem. Thanks for the update. I got my phone on October 2nd with the August security patch on it. No updates from Motorola since.

Did you receive any update, yet? Mine came with the August patch, and an update was available as soon as I got the basic settings dialed in. I'm on the September patch now, which is still pretty dated in comparison to my OP8Pro. No further updates, or news, as of now.

Nothing yet. Still waiting. I check almost daily.

you should have the october security update. The Retail US channel got that late in mid november (me on the 17th). I purchased directly from motorola and use t-mobile sim.
motorola does quarterly security updates it seems and when you get the update it'll be a month old.

Nothing yet. I wonder if T-Mobile is the holdup. I bought the phone from T-Mobile on release date. Perhaps Motorola released the update to T-Mobile but T-Mobile has not sent the update to my phone yet?
Motorola also said this phone will get the Android 11 update. If it's dependent upon T-mobile and if T-Mobile is the reason for the security patch delays, I'm not hopeful.

when you go to 'about phone' in settings, under 'software channel' does it say 'retail us' or something else?
If so, You could try this method:
turn the phone off, remove the sim. Connect to wifi and check for the update then.

In 'about phone' in settings, under 'software channel' it says "T-Mobile".

yea...you have to yell at t-mobile then. they're in control of your updates.
edit:
you could try and use the motorola firmware flashing tool to flash https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/smith/official/TMO/
if yours is a lower version than that (you can verify in the about phone page under firmware version)
But firmware flashing that way vs ota usually means wiping the phone when it's being done.

Finally, I got an update today...

it looks like t-mobile just pushed that firmware out (if you go by the time stamp on the link i posted). So the phone is not delayed in seeing updates, t-mobile is just super slow at pushing them out.
though, they could have a different offset for their quarterly security updates than motorolla, as they're not much slower than motorolla (2 months vs 1.5 months). Considering you got November 1st's patch at the end of december and I got october 1st's patch in mid november.
I expect the next update we see for this device will be sometime in late february. Probably not going to see the OS update until mid next year.

Yep. I finally got it yesterday.

Wow. I went from zero updates in almost 3 months to two updates in just over 3 weeks. I was on the August security patch all the way until December 28th when I finally got the October security patch. Now, just a little over 3 weeks later, I got the December security patch today...
I feel a lot better about the phone now.

Google pushes updates out in waves. It is possible that you have to wait for days, or even weeks to get an update prompt, even when manually clicking the button.

It's Tuesday night 6/7 at 10:45PM EST, and no June OTA update yet for me, either.
