No. Someone on Reddit and telegram got this. No changes can be seen. This may or may not be preparing for Android to release soon

Seems like Xiaomi servers provide {nearly randomly or in-time-changing-trying-to-fix} both 85Mb-size partial OTA and 1Gb-size full OTA to 10.0.15.0

I remember that in Oreo times there was a similar update too

I think they might have updated the bootloader to support Android 10 but then again. 1gb is quite big for something like that I think

Compilation
What is the compilation of this weird update?

We don't know for sure but I think it has something to do with them fixing the bootlooping issue and them preparing for Android 10

Bootloop

Same here. I verified the URL with my alogcat, it's the same. Rebooting now....
Took a while to boot, but it booted and I'm on FRF91 now. Nice.
Will these updates to FRF85 be integrated into aosp??

It did take a long time to boot. I hooked it up to ddms to make sure it wasn't looping.

These updates are pulled FROM aosp.
edit: This update appears to target Gmail.apk.

With my old Android phone Samsung used the term "security fixes" as synonym for "fix glitches that allowed root access"… I hope Google is doing some real security fixes
nvm...................
It would be nice if we had a full update of it instead of incremental. That would be easier to make a rooted update from for those of us that are lazy.

Nexus One is a dev phone, they will never fix root access.

But they may fix the new "root access without unlocking the bootloader" exploit that popped from FRF72 onward.
You're right, didn't think about this one.
hmm... I don't use gmail all that much. I think I'll stick to CM 6 as the alpha 3 or test 1 will be here soon with FRF91 I'm sure
another Froyo OTA Update [FRF91]
http://android.clients.google.com/packages/passion/signed-passion-FRF91-from-FRF85B.db99fdf1.zip
From FRF85B to FRF91
I can´t believe it... Froyo will never be completly done i think

system update available - is this marshmallow?

My wife just got a notification this morning that she has a system update available on her vzw s5. Does anyone know what this is? Is it marshmallow? Just trying to be cautious, she uses her phone extensively for work and I don't want to tell her to accept an update without knowing what it is.
Don't think so. Friend of mine has a note 4 and had the update last week, now his phone will reboot when not plugged in and won't reboot when plugged in. Idk. But I think it's just and update for 5.0.1
I had similar update on my note4 but havent done it yet as not sure to what it was...
Is there anywhere to find out (from vzw) what the update is?

Appears to have been just a patch. Didn't even update to 5.1 All that VZW said was:

Phone wasn't rooted so I can't say. My wife's work email (Good) does not work if the device is rooted so it wasn't an option.

2 questions:
1. The update notice says that it is a security update. Is this code for "the OS will be even more unrootable?"
2. The messages are somewhat insistent that I update. Should I try to block this? If so, could someone explain how to stop it?

Tmo System Update

Anyone else getting a system update today? I've already got owacerts set as .bak and sys updates disabled, but for some reason I'm still getting the nag? Any thoughts on preventing this? Nothing to freeze in Titanium for FOTA, or System Update since it's a diff variant.
hmm i think it might be version 10p as i update a while ago

I have already released a flashable version of this update here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/rom-10p-stock-rom-flashable-zip-root-t3654049
If you are rooted you can install it. Read all the warnings first though.

Everything is explained in the linked thread.
Currently though Team MT's servers are having problems, so you might not be able to download the firmware files.
