Nokia 7 Plus October Patch? - Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers

Where is Nokia 7 Plus's October patch and why ain't anyone talking about this? This security fix is a major flaw in the linux kernel. Why are they delaying the security patches now?
EDIT: October Patch On Nokia 7 Plus Was Provided On 30th October 2018 (109MB). No Bug Fixes Though.

Everyone got their piece of pie hence nokia has moved on to giving timely updates for N7+

Not everyone has Pie. On a Nokia 7+ TA-1055 (UK) and still no Pie.

I suggest to sideload Pie and wait no more...

TA-1062 in the US - got it last weekend. No October patch yet, though.
Split-screen implementation in Pie sucks. Not terribly fond of how you remove apps from queue, either. Everything else is just fine so far, though.

This is exactly what Xiaomi did to Mi A1. I don't know what's wrong with HMD. First, their devices are insanely priced. Second, they prevent us from using our device the way we want by not allowing bootloader unlocking (official). And now they are not even being punctual on providing monthly security updates.
Disgusting!!

They'll get the same treatment I gave Xiaomi when I bought this phone. I'm not getting a Nokia again. Next in line will be OnePlus...
edit:
This is too good to keep for myself:
ps: may have messed up the regular customer part but you get the point xD.
ps2: after it timed out and I marked the issue as not solved another support agent, this time in Portuguese, tried to start another chat, but since he failed to check the chat log I ignored him...

they have too much phones out there right now, remember even the new nokia phones recently introduced came with the android oreo, really shame.
and as time goes, hmd become worst and slow with the updates.
apart from the 7 plus, other nokia phones are still on android oreo.
And give me, ´always up to date´ speech

Same.. 1062 in US. And hate the split screen implementation. Also the longgg swipe to get to the apps. I disabled that gesture setup for that very reason.. pity google forces this for pixel 3. I will use Nova if they ever do this for my phone.

They have the means to contact every single N7+ user and send a message with that information.
"Subject: Nokia 7 Plus October Security Patch
Hello dear user, due to our inability to provide the update in time(or any other bs excuse by Nokia) we will be skipping the October Patch and will deliver the November patch in the normal schedule. Sorry for the incompetence(inconvenience), Best Regards, Nokia Support"
It would be this easy but instead they went silent...

I don't understand, the US seem to have pie, where the phone hasn't been officially released (to my knowledge), but here in the UK, where it was officially released android pie has still not been released

i think, more accurately, Hong Kong has Pie and those of us in the US forced to buy this variant for any LTE whatsoever got it, too.

First Update - A1PV1.0.0B19

I have been checking for updates since Google released the Nexus security update last week. I saw the ZTE update this morning. Not bad!
As well as the security patches the release notes also mentions Camera updates, option to disable Z-spaces (is that the swipe up from the bottom? It appears to be now disabled on my phone which is good), visual effects improvements for SMS, Email, Recording and Music, Audio fixes and fixed incorrect battery display.
Anyone else see it yet?
Yup got it too hopefully they will keep it up and eventually unlock the bootloader.
Installing as we speak. Hope it doesn't break anything.
I was so excited to see it! Hopefully they keep coming. I freaking love this phone
Downloaded and installing. Minor update, but this is a good sign from ZTE that they're listening to reviews and opinions and will keep this phone updated. I think this is the fastest I've ever seen a software update come out for a phone that wasn't just a "oops, we missed something" fix. Way to go ZTE.
hi all!i have zte axon pro,but my device always rebooting..I want firmwave to upgrade!please help me(sorry because my English is bad)

Did you already install the 19 update listed in the title of this thread? If yes, that is the latest.
Hope the Lux get's something too. This thing could be a beast of a phone if it had stock android.

No July update?

Is there no July update? Thought updates were released on the first monday of the month, but still no update for July
I know tomorrow it is fourth of July and a holiday in the USA but what about today? Everything closed as well?

That could also be an option. But none of the supported devices have a July update. So guess that isnt the case.
I think they maybe not working today. Just a few more months and then the monthly wait for a update is over..then no more official updates for the nexus 6

Yes. the last update will be in October.
Every update I've compared the new system files with the previous version. Only a few files changed.
No updates ..... it's the start of a quiet period.
Time to give a look to a new device. I am keeping an eye on the Plus One 5.

Since decryption and debloating it's a very fast phone. Will keep it a while.
The only disadvantage is the round back. On table/desk, input is not easy when the phone is spinning.

No any better stereospeakers yet B)
OP5 is sexy but still not worth
The only disadvantage imho is the soon no longer software support, but I don't really know what it really involves as security patches are not quite safer. (critical breaches will always be updated as XP was with wannacry)

Never had a problem with the round back. Using a case and always lay it on table on its front, since the case is closed no problm with scratches on the screen.
Phone is debloated too. But even without debloating it runs fine and for me fast enough.
Think it is usually about the 5 or 6 th of month released if any.
July update is live now for nexus 6.
Got it! sideloaded ...............okay so far
same bootloader and radio.
just sideloaded the OTA

An update on the new version, my first attempt at flashing N6F27H from the Factory Image (not OTA) ended up with the CPU running at 100% nearly all of the time with no Deep Sleep seen. I just reflashed the Factory Image for N6F27H again and I'll update whether the results are the same or better this time.

Why we cant update mate pro 10

I updated my mate 10 Pro with Huawei firmware finder, because the phone didn't find any update in setting section.
I have a friend and he also have mate Pro 10.
I was curious and asked him to show me his phone.
The firmware on his phone is dating October 2017.
He told me he didn't received any update till today.
So wtf is wrong with this phone?

Did he rebrand? Buy it somewhere else than his home country?
He could just try with Firmware finder as you did.

Couldnt agree more.
Huawei is really a big joke when it comes to updates. Their mid range phones
get more updates than their flagship phones. Still no face unlock officially and Android 8.1
for the Mate 10.
Id like to add Nokia and Essential phones are up there with Pixel in terms of updates.

Face unlock:
ALP-L29C636B135 has it, ALP-L09C432B136 has it. BLA-L29C432B142 has it. A few more probably. However, they probably won't be pushed to devices until June.

The CEO brags about Mate 10 having the ability for face unlock at the press conference when compared to Iphone X. Yet it takes forever to implement and distribute to users.
Unbelievable.
I really can not understand why all this hype about face unlocking on android ... was already available in my last 3 motorolas ... and warns it is not very secure as fingerprint and will not work in the dark. already belonged to the android much earlier than in iOS, now that apple uses in X everybody wants to use

OREO IS COMING! and it's 8.1(official) for g5s+

https://support.motorola.com/us/en/Solution/MS129979
Any info about 64bit/32bit?
moto g5s plus
This device will be upgraded to the Android 8 (Oreo) release of Android, pending partner support.
Do you have the latest Motorola software
I bought mine at Best Buy
Will almost certainly be 32Bit.
And we will still be waiting a while because the notes say that we get security up thru June 1st which hasn't happened yet. So implementing that will take probably a week at least. Soak testing will take probably 2 weeks, so we will probably see it late June/early July.
It sucks that they aren't doing anything about our awful camera(s).
Android OEMs get the contents of the security updates weeks in advance, so it's understandable that they'd release the June security update a few days early. It happens all the time with manufacturers that actually release updates often.

The camera on the G5+ was better than the dual setup on the G5s+ that's what I think the guy above is referring to.
"Sorry, the document you have requested is not available.
Please visit our homepage to get support for your product."
It's been coming since it was announced a year ago "from this fall". It'll be coming in a few months. Nothing to see here - literally.

When I bought the
g5s+ I was disappointed with their cameras quality. But after March update of Camera app it's much better. Of course in low light environment I also see so much noise but this is phone camera, not SLR.

But They aren't back. They changed the info on that page to show the June security patch instead of the oreo release. At this point, I've given up. In December, when I get my new phone, I'll be going to the nokia 6.1, which is an Android One device.

Doesn't seem to include 9.0.5's feature set, so it may be based on it stability and system improvements wise, but doesn't add some if not most of the perks of the actual OOS build, no wonder it took so long to be released...

Yeah that's definitely a plus, it was one of the reasons I converted, worked so much better on 9.0.5, good for everyone who's still on stock, device works better now and they said nightmode got an update too, so pics should be nicer in the dark.
So they added the stability updates, but ripped out everything else it seems. Not cool. Wonder how long it'll actually take us to get the 9.05 build.

Orrrrr maybe they fixed that possible bug where people would request permanent unlocks immediately at purchase and got approved despite being on eip and under 40 days, some even tried within the first 24hrs and got approved automatically for some odd reason, lol.

Got this off reddit. Seems to add the new gestures from 9.0.5(?) as well as other improvements. Can someone who got this update on the TMO firmware check to see if the gestures are actually the ones in the latest update. Then we can confirm that the TMO variant just has a different naming convention.
Also, the build of that is 181029 while the 9.0.5 intl. is 181103
