It's in the app tray

Well, I thought I looked there but found it now. Thanks.
Useless for me as my games are all lo fi so uninstalling.

I received this in the beginning of August. Nothing changed for me, as I dont play games on mobile phone.
Maybe battery life improved a bit, and that's all.

I can now select aac codex

I don't know if it's a problem with this update but my home screen just refreshed when I came out of an app and this never happened before this update.

well i dont expect android wear 2 anytime sooner. because its still in preview version available for limited models. So there will not be any ota update.
Got to admit.. I didn't get a little excited as this thing has sucked lately
Sent from my HTC 10 using XDA Labs
The update bricked my watch. I noticed it wasn't connecting with my phone so I reset device. Now it won't boot beyond the LG logo. Accessing the recovery mode of the bootloader did nothing. Still progressed to the logo and then died.
I received update too, installed it successfully, I feel watch smoother but I don't know if it is due to cleaned cache etc.

does your watch power-off when the weather is getting warm? mine was like that. I took it to the LG repair center and they replaced the body.

August
Just received an update with the September security patch. Anyone know if it has anything else?
Sent from my HTC One M9 using XDA-Developers mobile app

So, September 2019 Update N960FXXS2ARH6 is out..

Anyone got this update yet? Anyone notice any improvements?
EDIT: 2018 not 2019 LOL
Not yet, but it's only a security update.
I got it a few days ago, didnt really notice any improvement anywhere, but there isnt really anything to improve anyway in the first place (for me atleast)

Small caveat. Saw this in the other thread and tested it... pro mode is still laggy. Auto is smooth now at least
ARH6 is for Verizon. Saw a post about it just now.
After getting this OTA my battery life is horrid and seems to lose 1 percent every hour just sleeping. I also don't seem to have any new wakelocks. I tried clearing cache from recovery, clearing cache for google services, checking settings ect. Anyone else experiencing this?

entitlement

Has anyone any idea what com.huawei.entitlement is, since updating to 9.1 it's burning through my battery
Screenshot?

Try to disabled it via ADB, it might work.
Use these commands (make sure you enabled ADB in developer options) :
adb shell
Pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.entitlement
Not just me then, this seems to be a wider thing. There's hardly any info on what the process actually does. I mite have a go at uninstalling it
Uninstalled. No I'll effects so far
Maybe some debugging service that Huawei left by mistake?

Hmm, strange, for me patch killed app immediately, and phone is faster and smoother too, was your 311 from firmware finder or official OTA?

Last time i trust the Romanian service center's live chat. The said that emui 9.1 will bring ar lens.

When will we get emui 9.1 update?

I thought it would be coming last July, but it's August and still no sign of updates.
When it's ready you'll get it ?
Wait until your turn to get the update. Mine got the update 3 days ago ?

Install hicare app from play store change your country as Singapore and check firmware update from app register for emui9. 1 and check systems update in settings. I got from this trick a month ago... But no major differences from 9.0 just caaler screen got changed like than small changes
Right lets get a few thing straight ..
1 - changing the country in hicare does nothing . The app cant be fooled !
2 - judging by the lack of response from questions i ask posters and the complete lack of screenshots of their alleged firmware updates
makes me think theres an awful lot of huawei employees on here trying to make the company look good with all the BS about i got the update , i got the update !!
This site used to be great years ago , now all we see is paid trolls !

No problem, I'm already hide some number on that pic. Thanks for your attention
I got the update on the 11th, and I’m in Europe. I had to go through the HiCare app. The phone is still a dumpster fire, ram management is still bad and accessibility services still get disabled randomly.

I used to believe there are software that can find the complete number based on real time lookup. Perhaps, I am wrong.

sprint have a bad reputaion on updates time
My LG G8 ThinQ LM-G820TM just received the October update.
That's two updates within a three month span!
My fears of being stuck with a phone with great hardware but outdated software are subsiding.
I'm not updating since I believe the October update blocks an potential exploit that could be used for rooting.

I have the Sprint version and I received an OTA update yesterday. But i didn't see any new camera features.
Is anyone else having issues with notification sounds while connected to a bluetooth or wired headset after the October 1st security update? I know this used to be an issue, but it just started happening again for me.
