The upgrade to Android 2.3.6 rolling out in Europe - Motorola Droid RAZR

Has anyone received this yet?

Any idea about Asia?

Yah, some guys in Germany already got it. They used the versions 651.73.17 or 651.73.18.en.EU

yes - it seems that they are rolling Germany first...

Anyone in UK got this?
I take it this for Retail handsets & not just for Voda, O2 etc handsets?

And it's true! I've been using this rom for a couple of day and the battery actually last longer when using wifi especially.

How does this compare to 651.167.20 that I've been running for three weeks already?
Lower version numbering?

Updated, so far so good. In Apps menu it says 7 hidden, but when I go to Hidden apps there is only six apps

No sign of it here in sunny Scotland yet. (I'm on a SIM-free UK retail RAZR)
The words "Battery life improvements" make me go all warm and fuzzy!

However, I don't have a SD card (HTC 8x), and XAP download that way doesn't seem to be compatible with the application deployment tool from the SDK.
Go figure this only happens AFTER I order a lumia 810 over an 8x specifically for nokia apps. :,(

Chinese 16s official

Hello,i have received an OTA update for 16s (I am on official Chinese rom) Have anybody found the complete rom because I am on twrp and can't update or is there a way to revert to original recovery?
U can download a full original 15s rom and flash it. It will flash back the original Recovery.
Then u can flash the "Update.zip" using your original recovery.
I've also received the update to 016s (chinese ROM) and as I had just installed the 015s, it upgraded automatically to it. I have to say that the fingerprint sensor is flying now. I'd say that it's even faster than on X829 016s ROM. I even don't need to fully press the finger on the reader like I did with 015s, just barely touch it and it unlocks. The Remote Control got updated to 3.0 (I guess it was updated before to this version as well). Still the Android security patch level is June 1, 2016. Not sure what is the changelog and what other improvements it has.
16S has also been released for Indian beta testers only. Not official yet.
Someone can upload the update.zip file ?
im on the official indian rom(from here) but im not getting the update.

The Indian ROM still has not received the 16S update. Very few beta testers had received the 16S OTA update. According to LE staff, it fixes fingerprint problem and adds compatibility with Reliance JIO 4G VoLTE network.
We will have to wait for it to become official.

So far, Le Max 2 has supported most LTE frequencies out of the box. If there is any one particular obscure LTE frequency you want support for, do mention. Chinese vendors on Aliexpress and ebay do cut-copy-paste stuff of product information so it is hard to tell which model supports what.

In my country, my telco using LTE Band 3 and 7, also provide LTE-A CA_3A_7A.
For normal LTE, i'm able to use without issue.
Whenever i fall into the LTE-A coverage area, my signal will totally dropped, can't use any DATA.
Anyone using LTE-A/4G+ with CA_3A_7A without any issue?

Just installed the chinese 16s over indian 15s stock
On first boot, phone asked to register the figerprint data again, and the fp sensor is definitely working better than earlier.
updated flawlessly OTA. only downside is that my Google Play Services seems to be crashing every few. it didn't do that before.
Got a score of ~125.8k on first try Antutu on chinese 16s rom
On second attempt after reboot the score reached 131.3k
Both test at room temperature.
Screenshot
finally in 16s my fp is working agian. Literally not working before this.
My question is, what differences are there between the leaked US rom and the Chinese?
I was unable to find Google play store app in Chinese 16S rom. It may be having region specific optimizations for LTE.
Installing apk wizard is different in Chinese. In Chinese ROMs, it asks us to delete apk after installation and also gives a percentage of installation completion. Whereas, US and Indian ROMs have google style apk installation wizard with no option offered to keep or delete the apk.

Hi Sanke1,
Got the same problemss you got : my device hung up every 3 minutes ???
I then changed the communication protocols used to select only those used in Europe (I can do this in CM13 don't know if the 16s allows it too...) And now everything is back to normal !
Maybe you should try that ?
As you do I sometimes curse this device and I certainly curse the lack of source release by the manufacturer... It they'd do the device would be really great !!!!
Regards

Location choice

Hi all.. I have just today received my note 4 global edition and turned it on and love it... However when setting up it asks to choose your locale but there is no united kingdom option..
Question is what am I missing and what have other uk users picked. I chose Poland purely because of my Samsung s2 days.
Any help advise etc great fully received. :good:

I think I chose Spain, but it doesnt seem to make a difference in actual usage terms (anywhere in the OS), as you set the language to english anyway.
Hi,
I'm also in the UK and it doesn't matter what location you choose, you can set time and date and also the wether app has all UK cities.

Does Chinese version of Mate 20 pro work in other counties

In regards to your first point; You can view the frequencies that are being used by the phone online (I usually use GSM arena or just a google search) and then compare them with your countries bands (also a quick google away). I am Australian and searched on my carriers website and they had a map showing where their coverage was in terms of each band. So I was able to work out that getting the phone would be fine for me for my daily life but when I leave that and go on a day trip or something I can sometimes get 1 bars in some places. (This is regarding my last phone by the way (mate 8))

that's what I used to do.. but I'm too lazy for that now - I just use kimovil
hmm, strangely I can't find the chinese version there.. it does have the chinese mate x 20 though
basically there is no limitation of software , including all the services of Google, Only thing that can not work is Google Maps Timeline, dont know why , it just cant work on the chinese version of phone
but there is a lot of limitation of software on the global version, huawei messaging app, huawei travel assitance, huawei voice assistant, etc
,
Google feed might not be available too.
My worry would be getting a faulty "green" screen and would need to return it, unless the manufacturer honours the warranty regardless where purchased? I had to exchange mine due to faulty lg screen, but it was an over the counter exchange by 3 UK, whom I bought it from. Luckily got a boe screen and it's fine.
google works fine with my chinese m20p..only issue was no no group message from system app, calendar not linking with system app.
HW Chinese model has some notifications delay problem but it get OS update much earlier/faster than international version and call recording feature

you can install google play store from the huawei store included on the phone - at least some people said that, as well I tried to find it on a phone in the huawei (physical) store (in china) and it had play available for install within the huawei app store. I have no idea about google services, I'm sure someone in this thread must have written about it.

Does "OK google" work well with your chinese m20pro? I also have a chinese one , tried but cannot enable google assistant voice match, it just greyed out.
I have the Mate 20 Pro Chinese Version, and Wifi calling for example is not included there.
