Need Little Help about Updating to Feb Patch - Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers

Hey there,
Right now I have December 1 2017 Security patch (NPJS25.93-14-13) Installed on my device, and I haven't been updating my device through OTA because of fear of getting hardbricked & always Installed latest update via Fastboot without wiping data.
But Right now for Feb 2018 security patch I couldn't find any verified firmware for this device even after 2 months of release, so my Question was should I take OTA for this patch? I have latest GPT + Boot-loader which comes with December 1 (2017) patch. So Should I take OTA for Feb 1 Patch (NPJS25.93-14-15) which fixes Karck vulnerability? Thanks!

Moto G5 Plus Updates

Has this phone received ANY updates? When I run Motorola's update through the Android Settings app, I'm told the phone is up-to-date, but the phone is still running Android 7.0 with a 1/1/17 security patch... is this some kind of joke?
My updates are from September. Not sure what's going on with your updates. You can manually update via fastboot or TWRP if you aren't getting them...

How do I do this?
The UK finally got the May security patch a week or so ago and when i asked Moto UK about updates they were a little terse with their answer.
I have loved my Moto phones since owning a Moto Defy but i have been looking at Nokia handsets and they seem very good for the money and with the promise of timely updates.
There's a thread in here somewhere with all the firmware links for TWRP. Those are all flashable if you have it. If not, there's another thread with fastboot firmware. Just gotta find which you need and get cracking
Hello,
I bought my phone on Ocotber 2017 and i haven't received any updates yet. My latest security patch are from August 2017.
Is this normal?
Thank you

Yes, I believe the August 1st security patch, Android 7.0 is the latest update for the US variant. Build number is NPN25. 137-83.
I got mine from Amazon UK and it's on the august patch.
It's dual SIM, that might make a difference?
I have the Amazon Prime exclusive version (U.S. XT1687) with 7.0 (NPN25.137-83), Security Patch 8/1/2017

Yep. I'm on RETUS and that is the latest version.
i am using Indian variant and having 1st November 2017's security update.
Can anyone drop the link to download august build stock rom for xt1686
Hello, thanks for the feedback.
5 months without any security update, that's a lot of time.
Mine is on reteu, NPNS25.137-33-11.
Just talked to motorolla on the chat and they said that don't know when the next security patch will be available. For a phone that has release last year on February, the support/updates should be more active. A little bit disappointed with that.

questions about the 7.1.1 update

Hi guys, I recently read about 7.1.1 being officially released, the thing is I already updated to Nougat via the soak test uploaded last year, should I revert to stock rom and get Nougat officially? How it is on performance quality?, Also, I'm on September security patch, do i have risk of bricking?
If you flash this through fastboot you will get 1 November 2017 security patch without having to downgrade. Then you may get December and February updates

How is your GPS on that firmware? Also, do you know if that firmware will work on the XT1607?

I'm not able to tell you how GPS works because I don't own the phone, I installed it in a friend's phone. And AFAIK it can be installed on all models except Verizon's XT1609. Tell me if it works for you

no OTA updates for a long time !

hi everyone,
since i side loaded Android 8.1 image i didint receive any security update! i check for updates regularly but there is no updates !
what should i do ?
fully stock locked bootloader.
lastest patch 5 january.
I just bought another nexus 6p( was enrolled into beta program ). I did flash the latest image from google, and yeah, seems like the last ota security patch is from january. Can someone confirm this ? I forgot to look at my last nexus 6p.
Latest sec Update february 5th here...but flashed myself due to unlocked and rooted...
I updated to Oreo OTA on Sunday. Have February security patch installed.
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
do you guyes know to to downgrade to 8.0??
i've manually flashed all the missing updates i think its the only way.
Yeah, something about the beta program of 8.1 froze updates at the January security patch for me as well.
I ended up dirty flashing the release 8.1 system image and everything works fine now, still don't get OTA update notifications though.
A few days ago, I did get the march 5 security update, after flashing this image 8.1.0 (OPM3.171019.016, Mar 2018) from google .
after flashing all the missing updates , OTA updates started to roll out as normal to me

You will be stuck there, as there is no update available for nougat, you need to upgrade to oreo for future security updates

It seems HMD still releasing security updates for Nougat. If you go here you'll notice that there is security update:
Nokia 6, 00WW_3_700_SP05, released on March 7, 2018
The question is how to get it

Do you need November update to be able to update to Android Pie?

Sorry for the silly question, I'm currently rooted on October update, but I only get the November update. So I guess I have to update to November to get Pie?
In my opinion you can update your Android from any build. They will keep every build on their servers if it necessary to update build to November for pie so they update you November first then make pie update its only my thought.
Whenever you face any problem with update keep the backup in your PC and latest build with miflash tool and all driver install so you can boot your device.
I did updated my phone from July to November via ota.
