You know where to look for the system update, right?

Doesn't Google push the OTA to every device, regardless of carrier? I know the factory images are universal, just like the OTAs on Google's factory image resource.

Hmm, so partners get bulletin a full month in advance? I wonder if that includes the source or that comes after the bulletin.
If they have a month head start (not Nexus, which Google releases, I mean LG or Samsung branded), most of these guys should be able to get stuff out before Google assuming they have things streamlined.

Nice find! That page is all kinds of confused. Source still hasn't been posted and there's nothing official on the Sprint site. It also said it started 9/24/2014, which is doubtful given no source, etc. When linking through to the "how to update" it says NE5 and NI4 listed in the same sentence.
Regardless, hopefully we see this all happen soon. I'm also hopeful that the changelog is actually more than that.

From my understanding this is just a minor security update and nothing more. L is what I'm interested in, hopefully will be here this year.
If history has been any indicator, and I've been with Sprint for like 4 years now, I wouldn't expect to start seeing ota end user confirmation until about 2 1/2 weeks to a month after its alleged release :/ Our American carriers and their sluggish staggered rollouts lol
I had a chat with a Sprint Representative, and she said that they had no knowledge of a update on the 24th and the we should be updated in October.
Yeah, looking like a goof on Samsung's part. No source, no announcement as far as I have seen.

This is not available OTA or through Kies. Also Sprint CSR's are denying it has been released. So I think it hasn't been released.
Sprint subscribers using Samsung Galaxy S5 can now download the official Android 4.4.

Folks, we've seen goofs like this before. Until source drops and and you see the notice on Sprint Connections (S5 subforum) it's not a done deal.

I think Samsung jumped the gun in this case. We have never seen it go OTA until it drops on Sprint Communities site.

Usually that's what happens.
http://www.androidcentral.com/nexus-5-and-nexus-6-receiving-build-lmy48i-stagefright-fixes-tow
According to Sprint, the Nexus 5 and Nexus 6 should be receiving build LMY48I beginning today, with security fixes for the Stagefright exploit in tow. Being as there is no specific SKU for Sprint on either of these phones, the update should apply to all Nexus 5 and Nexus 6 models.
While carrier documents are not always the most accurate source of information, it isn't too far fetched that Google would be pushing an update this quickly. Google has yet to post the new images, so be sure to keep an eye on your phone for the update. If you have already received the update, be sure to let us know in the comments below.
In another thread the update is posted.

Well, that's it guys & girls.
I bought this tablet new 6 days ago and today the big G issued their September security update, and there's no love for the N7 2013 :/
I wasn't expecting Nougat but their site did say updates until July next year I think. Oh well. It's still a great device.
I assume it's not possible/too much work for someone to take on creating security otas from other devices?
Wait a few days. They've supported everything else through the guaranteed time for them thus far. (Maybe they are going to surprise us and throw Nouget at us......I doubt it, but it was dead simple to port and mostly works)
^No if they stick to what they say we are done: https://support.google.com/nexus/answer/4457705?hl=en
We are obviously over 3 years since release and are also over 18 months since it was removed from the store.
Going by that link we were lucky to get M as that was over 2 years.
Honestly it doesn't matter to me that Google stopped supporting the 2013 Nexus 7, even though it's three years old it still performs extremely well for it's aged hardware. I'd love to know whether or not the rumored 2016 Pixel tablet is an actual thing...
I see factory images for other devices containing the september 6 2016 security patches but not for the nexus 7 2013. So it looks like I will have to migrate to another rom in order to have my device secure.

But they won't work for this device if they're for another device, right?
I wonder how difficult it would be to create N7 patches from patches released for, say, N6 etc?

I am assuming that other nexus 7 2013 roms (AOSP/Cyanogenmod/etc) do incorporate the latest security patches. It is just google that has stopped creating and pushing images to our devices.

Nexus 5 just received the October update. Since the N7 2013 was released at the same time, I'm hoping it'll get an update as well.

I have now run across several 6p users who are part of the Android beta program who have not received the OTA security patch for September. I'm curious if this is just random or if there is a trend to be found here. So, if you are on the developer preview program, have you received your security patch yet?

Seriously? First, Nougat OTA was only released a couple weeks ago, so I'd expect the earliest security patch to be October. Second, since there is all kinds of speculation about the full Nougat factory image not being released (hardware, software, something special when Google makes their Pixel announcement), they aren't going to get multiple OTA security releases ahead on their flagship device, for which they haven't even put out a full factory image yet.
It's a simple question, the September security patch did go live 2 days ago, so it is not a question of if it coming, it is a specific question about 6p users on the developer preview program. Not even a serious one, I'm just curious.
No update here

Just wanted to share this good news, Nexus 6 will be getting 7.1 in December, Google said this
At the final release of the Android 7.1.x platform, due in early December, we’ll roll out updates to the full lineup of supported devices — Nexus 6, 5X, 6P, 9, Player, Pixel C, and supported Android One devices — as well as Pixel and Pixel XL devices.
Yes, indeed! Here' the link
Also note:
"If you want to receive the Developer Preview automatically, visit Android Beta and enroll your device. If you previously enrolled a device and haven’t unenrolled, your device will receive the update. If you already enrolled but don’t want to receive the update, visit Android Beta to unenroll the device as soon as possible."
I'll be leaving my device in the beta program and watching for system updates...
Google says that the preview will start off supporting only the Nexus 5X, 6P, and the Pixel C. Other devices will be added to the preview as it progresses.
Haizz, my Shamu is not in the list of end Oct
Good news, even though (as I've said before) I doubt I'll see much difference.
Is there any news anywhere about the preview system images for sideloading? Will we actually have to wait for the final OTA?

That's what it looks like. No preview, just final 7.1 for us. That's fine for me.
It won't be a big deal, but there are a couple of nice features.

"Initially, we’ll offer the Developer Preview for Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P, and Pixel C devices, extending to other supported devices by the end of the preview."
I have a shockingly bad memory. Were the previews not provided as OTA images during the beta period? Duh... I'm old...

As I remember it, they were, both as OTA-s, and full images on the beta site.
So you have a bad memory too...?
That would be ideal, but I shan't hold my breath. As I say so often, the differences I see from one version to the next are so minimal that the only change is in my head, not in the phone. Nevertheless, being on the bleeding edge is exciting. Maybe I should get out more...
