Hey guys! Just recently on the 18th of June, I recieved an update available notification with some sketchy discription, which is clearly written by someone with average to little knowledge in english. I know Samsung is Korean, but this is some official stuff which demands formal usage of language. See for yourself.
Has anyone of you installed it? What are the differences? What is this security flaw that demands immediate upgrade?
Current Version: A510FXXU1AOL9
Pending Update: A510FXXU2APC4

Anyone with some news?
That's probably just an update to the Android Security Patch Level
EDIT:
Scratch that, I noticed that the update is over 200MB so it can't be just a security patch... So I went to Sammobile and Android 6.0 started rolling out in Russia.
Build number is different to the one reported but it might be because it's a different region.
I also checked the pending A510FXXU2APC4 update, and it's 5.1.1 based, same as my current version.
I have always been a fan of 'leave it as it is if it's working' point of view. So they are stating there will be performance enhancements and all, but should we believe that? Yes, the conspiracy is strong with me, don't blame me on that.
Also, when the 6.0 update rolls out for my region, will we have the oportunity to directly upgrade to 6.0, surpassing this 'minor' 273MB update?

Apologies if this is something very obvious but I don't understand much about this stuff. All I have been doing for the last few years is install the latest version of lineage (monthly for the security updates) and just leave it there, because I don't wanna screw up my phone.
I just saw that lineage support has been dropped dropped for this device, so I decided to move to the AOSIP Android Q build.
I was checking 'About Phone', when I noticed that vendor security patch level dated all the way back to 2018.

I don't know what it is but it seemed concerning especially after all I hear about keeping your phone updated with the latest patches and stuff. Likewise I have also seen the word 'firmware' being thrown out a lot on this forum, so I would like to know whether I need to update it as well. I have never done it after I first installed a custom ROM on this device in 2018.
That's it basically, I wanted to ask is there something I should do before I do the usual clearing system, data, cache, dalvik and flash the intended ROM and gapps?
Thank you <3

Getting a bit annoyed waiting for this phone to be upgraded since I just left the 2020 model (broken) for this one. 2020 has 11 but this is last on the list?
So make be feel better and tell me you've seen it.
This is ridiculous. Android 12 is coming next week.
Verizon seems to have the update. Letting anyone who cares know.
Strange that retail doesn't have it yet

I had discussions today with both Verizon and then Moto. What a runaround.
Verizon says that Moto releases the OTA. Moto says it is still waiting for vendor approval... It is a joke. And so is this phone tbh, not terribly happy.
For full disclosure, the phone is an unlocked model from BBY.
Mine is retail us from Amazon.
I do really like the phone but my own damned fault I didn't do the research for the Android version. Very disappointed in being the last phone in the rollout
I failed on my research as well, had been happy with older G phones in the past, and got sucked in by the price point. Oh well, hopefully there will be some development in this regard.
I just recently updated my Realme XT to it's latest version on the official Realme Site, which is (RMX1921EX_11.C.14) in hopes of getting Realme UI 2.0 android 11 since I read I had to have it to get it.
So, I went ahead to the official site and downloaded it since I didn't have it and my phone told my it was already up-to-date.
Now, everything's ok, same as usual. But I was wondering if by doing that, I ruined my chances at getting future official updates automatically.
By the way, now the "Software Update" section says I'm up-to-date but won't show me the version I'm on nor does it tell me my build number on the "about phone" section

EDIT:
I managed to see my exact software info. Could anyone take a look and tell me if it's ok? Or will I need to go back to its OG firmware. And in this case, I found versions with 11.C and 11.A what's the difference?
EDIT 2:
My phone OG had the same name as RMX1921EX_11.C.14 BUT WITHOUT THE EX. I live in Latin America, Venezuela, and over here we don't have an official provider. They are all imported.
My main question if I can still get official updates, that's all.
I here have a Honor 20 pro (YAL-L41) in Europe.
The build is 11.0.0.176(C431E4R5P4 with Magic 4.0.0 and security patch level fom september 1, 2021.
Will there be any more updates coming from Huawei/Honor?
I read that the HarmonyOS should be available by now for this device, but maybe only in China.
Any ideas how to keep this device up to day with a current Android version? Any third-party firmware maybe?
But as far as I remember, this would need a bootloader code which Huawei no longer provides.
Thanks for your input.

same here, it's been discontinuted update since September! what a joke, i thought they announced honor 20 will get EMUI 12
I read somewhere that Honor phones will get emui 12 in June.

Anyway to get the update if not in Russia?
I don't know. Maybe change region, maybe hisuite proxy?
can confirm changing region doesn't work. firmware finder doesn't have any Magic UI 5 version, latest ones are Magic UI 4 /EMUI 11 from 2021
We got the new update.
Seems to be just security update (about 84MB).

alright, meow.
Won't update, doe, because I fear that the update might break my root, and by extension, the Magisk modules i've installed for the purpose of customizing my UI, meow.
Well, we do not need root for our phones, so we could update without any problem.
When we do not get security updates anymore, we (my wife and i) will buy a new phone.

Wow, so cool, you could buy new phones, and you got a wife, wow!
Most of the other people here are trying to improve their phones, be it a a cost of no further updates... Be it may sound I'm poor compared to you. :supercool smiley: :wow: : champagne icon: :dolar icon:
