Looks like Dec Security Patch and changed to V405U12A

After this update, it seems I'm having issues unlocking the phone with my fingerprint... anyone else having this issue?

Try removing the finger print profile and add new

The fingerprint sensor was working fine on other apps.
Last night, a couple of days after installing the update and several reboots later, I got a message saying "The update is complete"
The fingerprint issue is now gone!! Really odd...

Honor Note 8 How to Unlock Nougat EMUI 5.0

Yesterday I got an update of the HiCare app which I've never really used so I decided to open it up, clicked Update and what did i find? Nougat, EMUI 5. So I decided to do a quick video for beginners over here:

I just got mine and the update was sitting there when I did my first bootup. So it's hard for me to tell BUT this is the best phone ever and The Google Voice Phone app is working. I heard it didnt work but I've had mine for 3 weeks now and it has worked each time I used it to dial out.
Fingers Crossed and if someone is STILL having problems with the GOOGLE VOICE not showing the GV number on the receiving end, just access it through the browser and dial the number through there and your phone will ring and when you ANSWER, the other end will start ringing and ur GV NUMBER will show up.

New update : NXH19X

Just received this one on my urban. First boot took ~10 minutes
Cannot notice any diff rt now.
Anyone else ?
Just a security update. May 1, 2017 security update.
Seems smoother for me. Also able to access the old LG watch faces such as hiking and outdoors Worth installing
Again, A call can be answered from the LG Urbane

Just took this update today. It's definitely smoother. They did something with this release beyond just security patches, or maybe just clearing the cache. I can't find anything online about what's in it tho. If anyone can find release notes I'd love to read.

Any link to flash update manually?
Does anyone know how to manually clear the cache on the Urbane?
Ahh, so now I'm thinking its time for AW2 for UB2 as from this UB feedback seems the new update is smoother.

I've restarted mine and still don't have it available. I'd like it too.
***update***
I reset my watch and it updated after I paired it up again.
The update has shown up on my urbane with skin1980's EXT4ALL rom, so I flashed stock, but on stock it doesn't show up.

I don't own the UB, I own the UB2, but looking in forums on other watches, seems if you disable phone bluetooth, on Watch enable Wifi and then go into settings about system update and keep clicking 20-50 times seems to kick it a bit earlier. Don't know if this method will work with UB.
Maybe a staged rollout? Mine just appeared after charging.
Just got the update started on mine. Showed up randomly saying an update was available and I just got one a couple days ago too so I'm not too sure what that was about. Either way, I'm hopeful for better performance as some of the lag, especially with google assistant is unbearable.
Edit: So after update, it looks like I'm on build number NXG47C with March 1, 2017 security patch level.
I would think NXG is older than NXH? Mine was also manually sideloaded the AW2 update so I'm not sure if that has something to do with how I get updates now. Guess I'll have someone call me and see what happens.
Edit 2: I do have a call decline option now. Does not let me answer the call, but I can decline...so I guess that's useful. Though I dont remember if I had this option before since I always just answer/decline on my phone. The watch did respond to the call coming in pretty fast though which is nice.
Wow, this update really made things MUCH smoother. It is really usable device now!
Seems like Google-Assistant is working again
Received my update yesterday. Definitely is allot smoother, Google Assistant doesn't take a decade to open anymore. Could have sworn Ok Google would work with "always on" turned off and wake the watch up, but it doesn't seem to anymore, but not 100% sure it did before the update anyway.

Yes : you have to enter into recovery mode. For that reboot the watch, while rebooting swipe from top-left to bottom-right to enter bootloader, in bootloader select recovery mode then select wipe cash partition
Does it feel like battery drain is more after the update?
Not happy with forced update.
My URBANE was working fine with Skin1980's EXT4ALL.
The update installed itself last night while charging the watch, and now it's stuck in a recovery loop (TWRP).
Can anyone help me turn this paper weight back into a watch again?

November update AOD issue.

Hello,
So since I installed the November patch few days ago, the AOD stopped working properly. It doesn't recognize any touch and lost the double-tap functionality, except when using the S Pen, then it works like a charm. I have no idea why this is happening but it's frustrating. Anyone else experiencing such issue?

What's your region? Notification popped up today (am in the UK) to update November security patch (see image) but I haven't. Just wondering whether I should cos this seems to be an issue.. especially when software updates start to crash your device ?...or make it "malfunction"

Eastern Europe. And cannot tell you to either do or do not update. The only thing I got form Samsung Support was to do a factory reset which was a ridiculous proposal.

I took the risk, updated today and it's been fine. Really crazy that Samsung suggests a hard reset. Hope u manage to sort it out.

On November security patch(build ARK3) as well on the Exynos, with no such issues.
Erase cache in recovery and re-check, well and good it it fixes, if not do a "reset settings", if still fails, do a "factory data reset" as you have no other option.

Keyboard case Firmware Updates?

Is anyone else getting multiple daily keyboard firmware update notices? They say they complete when I install them. Just wondering if they are actually sending out that many or if I have something like a stuck update.
Ive had a few, but no where near once a day.
i got same problem... update for keyboard firmware few days a time.
Same here. Just received the keyboard 7 hours ago and I've updated 4x already.
Mine goes through random periods where several times in a row it will pop up that there is an update available. Some times it indicates that the firmware updated properly, other times it says it failed. I can usually trigger the firmware update message by connecting and disconnecting the keyboard about 5-10 times in a row.
I'm not sure if anything if it's actually updating any firmware or not. It's just another one of those little Samsung issues I accept as normal. *sigh*
I'm noticing the same thing -- multiple updates for the keyboard firmware. Curiously, the update never successfully installs if the keyboard is folded around behind the tablet. But if I prop up the display with the kickstand and lower the keyboard to a flat surface (laptop style), the update always successfully installs.
I am thinking it has a default behaviour of popping up the firmware update prompt anytime it has problems talking to the keyboard. I'm getting probably 5 or 6 prompts a week. Most of the time I just click "Later" as I'm sure there are not that many actual updates.
One other quirk I've noticed is sometimes the tablet refuses to wake up. The screen stays dark and the tablet is unresponsive. The first couple times I did the physical button reset, but I noticed if you remove the keyboard when it happens the tablet wakes up and you also get the keyboard firmware update notice. This happens rarely, maybe once in a couple months. If you do see this just separate the keyboard.

Yes! Same here. Never happened with the non-keyboard book cover, but then appeared after I swapped to the keyboard book cover. It happens less frequently after (one of?) the firmware updates, but still happens on occasion. I'll try your keyboard separation trick next time.
Knocking on wood but after updating to the Dec 1 patch ASL3, I haven't gotten the keyboard update thing.

Give it some time. I updated to ASL3 firmware today and then a few hours later I got a keyboard firmware update popup.
Same as when I was on ASK1 firmware, I can trigger the firmware update popup by removing the and reattaching the keyboard 5 to 10 times in a row.
Oh Well.

So far no firmware notification yet. I remove the keyboard when I play certain games and reattaching it later does not show any update anymore. Finally!
Looks like that update fixed the firmware prompts. I loaded it last week and have not seen a keyboard firmware prompt since.
Just curious: is there any screen on the Preferences where you can see which firmware version you have on your keyboard? (I didn't find that info myself).
Thanks in advance!
According to Samsung, they said update it in DeX mode and it will completely install and no more prompts to install again, it worked for me.

Does anyone know if you can take this update while rooted?

Confirmed. Was getting the prompt every 2-3 days and always chose to install the update. Finally read this and did it in DeX mode more than two weeks ago, and haven't been prompted since.
Thanks, I'm glad I was able to help.

"ok Google" not working

Anyone else? P4xl
Only works after I've opened the app
Occasionally when I unlock my phone after being asleep it won't respond to ok Google...
Battery opt is off
Cleared cache with no luck

A few reports of the same on Aussie Whirlpool. I wonder if it's language setting bug.
Mine is fine so far, but I'm still stuck on the old Assistant due to having a GSuite account on the P4XL.

Noticed it since moving onto the new assistant
I have the same issue. need to open open first before it works. i think it started to happen on dec build for me
Same here since running custom roms...
Any known fix? Pretty annoying not being able to use a feature properly
Weird, I have the opposite problem. It's overly sensitive for me, it'll just randomly go off in my pocket when I'm having a conversation
