April 2017 security patch for Moto Z Play - Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion

I found the April 2017 patch for the Z Play this morning. Apparently, it's rolling out to the RETBR software channel. I sideloaded it on my Canadian Moto Z Play.

Just sideloaded this on reteu successfully for those curious. https://imgur.com/a/rAa1B

Some user on reddit said the phone went crazy after the update and drains the battery. What are your experiences?

Indeed.. I always read some guys saying that they do a hard reset after each update ¬¬

Cant install it via TWRP on a rooted phone, bcos of error 7. There has to be a way...

Good to know that we get updates. But it would be nice to get android 7.1 to get the dynamic app-shortcuts in pixel launcher working. Or get we directly android O?

You can't flash an official OTA file with TWRP. You'd need to use stock recovery and possibly Un-Rooted also.

eu-update is out over ota. No 7.1.2, but 04/17-patch
Edit: For me the battery is better now. No draining anymore. Good update. Has done anything good

it's out on retapac, too

Can someone explain step by step how to install this? O saw a few screenshots above but not sure if thats the way to install thanks!!!

I have just check for updates. Then it was there and ready to download and install. Maybe you must wait few days until you get it, too. That's because roll out not directly to everybody.

Rogers: 6.0.1 Update July 21st

Just a heads up for those wondering.
http://communityforums.rogers.com/t5/forums/forumtopicpage/board-id/OSUpgrades/thread-id/1
So this will be flashable on H815P?
I just hope it solves some overheating problems the phone has
Guys i dont want to disappoint you but i think it will be an 6.0 version and not 6.0.1 because none of the g4 variants is running on 6.0.1 and i think not even korean models. It will be sth like v20h vor uk only some bug fixes and newer security patch... But anyways we'll see it.

Then Rogers needs to fix their table. It says 6.0.1 And anyways what is the problem and LG can't update to 6.0.1 it's a minor update after all. I think they will let their phones die update wise. I don't see them putting any effort to update them. I could accept the missing 6.0.1 only in the case they got plans to skip it and go directly to 7.0 but yeah I'm dreaming considering they are unwilling to give us even the security patches.
I can remember that they said a few months ago as the g5 was released that 6.0.1 is exclusivly and only for the g5 and upcoming phones if they stay true to their politics then u will get 6.0 if not then,i am,wondering,why the other,unlocked variants are still on 6.0
Anyways we have to wait it out and proove me if i am mistaken somewhere

hahahahha i said it before no 6.0.1 for us lets start to blame lg hahahaha
how is speed and battery life m8 ?
Yeah I'm pretty annoyed its not 6.0.1 as I've been waiting for the bluetooth bugs that are fixed in 6.0.1.
On the plus side the security patch finally closed up the Stagefright vulnerabilities
LoL LG this is hilarious.

No duh Sherlock .
I keep refreshing the Nexus factory image page to see when the time stamp changes.... I don't have patience to wait for an OTA lol. It's just a really likely rumor that it will be released today though. Not a whole lot based on actual facts.
www.android.com According to this website it's already here. Now we just have to wait for factory images.
If one manually flashes the factory image, will that process properly repartition the drive so that it'll be able to take advantage of Seamless Updates?

No. That won't happen however you do it; I believe seamless updates will only work with new devices designed specifically to make use of it.

Can you upload the OTA or something?
FYI, you have to be running Preview N and enrolled in the link below to get the update. I enrolled my device and the update came in instantly.

Kool. Have fun. So far my mobile rocks in speed and actions and split screens. So far so good. Not that features are many but speed and response are great and better.
Although need to do a good factory reset and retry.

Watchers: Moto X Pure Official Android 7.0 Nougat

Can we subscribe somewhere, so we get a notification when a flashable ZIP of the Official Android 7.0 Nougat is leaked / released ?
I keep checking this site every hour.
Do you really need to create another thread for it?

If you have the XDA app on your phone you can subscribe to a couple of threads dedicated to the topic. But honestly, I would not get worked up over the update. Once the roll out starts it could take days for you to get it as major updates are typically released over a period of days to minimize server loads and other issues.

Agreed.
No one is gonna release/leak the soak test files... The old days are gone.. all are selfish.. just put screenshot and showoff... but they ain't wrong as it is very difficult to get into soak test.. and if they follow up nda they will be there for future tests also
Selfish? When you sign an NDA it's called integrity. Sorry if that is a foreign concept.
yah, i wouldn't say that they're selfish, there's likely a risk in violating that NDA. we're not entitled to anything.
Hello all,
I was wondering if anybody who has a Moto x pure on metropcs received the 7.0 update yet. I still haven't received mine.
Thank you.

Nope and none of us ever will regardless of carrier lol. I had switched to the Axon 7 but I had so many issues with data connectivity and WiFi so I returned it. I'll wait to see what I get next.

The answer is no... No one on Metro PCS, or any other carrier has gotten it yet because it hasn't been released to the public. The only people who have it are testers that are part of MFN. Patience, your not missing out on anything.
Ain't this some sh1t. 7.1.1 for a phone released a month before ours lol, this is Android Authority reporting this.

OTA received for US unlocked s8+

Received Oreo OTA with march security update. Anyone else got it?
I don't believe that's Oreo. I have an unlocked S8+. I got the OTA a couple days ago; the size is 1353.14 MB.
I've read nothing but negative things about this OTA. I'm not going to install it, but then what happens to security updates that come after this?

Its Oreo, look at the version number, it's the same. The size varies, I was upgrading from oreo beta to full oreo. I believe you are updating from nougat, that why your download size is much bigger.
