new ROM update by Samsung - Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion

I have got a brand new update on my Tab s3 LTE with original rom yesterday (March 2020). I am quite surprised how long Samsung supports this model! Good to see as the community around this model is very small unfortunately.

Any Download links or Mirrors?
What's the changelog?

What kind of update? Security update or Android 10? Big difference between the two.

Security. We'll probably never see 10 on this device.

Something better? Or does it have no improvements?

I just recieved the security update yesterday. Does the device seem bit faster?

Security update. Samsung seems to have this tablet on the "Other Regular Security Updates" schedule (a.k.a. not Monthly, not Quarterly). No surprise really, since the last security patch for the tablet was the August 2019 one.
For a changelog I guess we can just just check every security update since last August. I can't post links yet, but if you search something like "samsung mobile security updates" it should be one of the first links

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.

[Q] What is latest offical Android version for ATT S7 ?

I just purchased a new S7 (SM-G930A) and it currently has Android 7.0 and Android security patch April1, 2017. The phone is telling me that there is an update. Is Oreo available for the ATT S7 or is this just a security update ?
Thanks

There is no official OREO update for the SM-G930A model just yet... the official release date is TBD. You can download the leaked unofficial version though in a different section of this forum. The latest security patch is most likely what your available update is slated for.

The last official update I'm aware of is BRA1. Jan 1, 2018. You should have a few between what you're at and the latest.
I got a OTA to BRC1 last night.

B405

The May security patch is on Firmware Finder
Yes and next month we will see June security patches that will finally put an end to the Oreo "telenovela" for this device. For the future idiots comments that i'll read...June is the last term for "Q2 2018" so the last hope to see the major update. We will see, personally day after day my hope goes down...but i really wish i could be wrong
Maybe the patch will never be deployed alone and will deploy it with Oreo update

I really hope it will happen. Because the same thing has happened to the B399 update (the B398 update has also had the December patches in it, but the B399 update has rolled out instead.

Noone seems to be concerned that Honor/Huawei released "May 2018 security patches" in.. April?
I'm trying to find any information about what is being corrected, but there isn't seem to be anything there. Are they trolling? Or is it a fake security patch?

When do you think "next month patch" is written and tested ?
OEM most probably have google patches before their official release, for testing purposes. Such as : https://www.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-mi-a1-android-8-1-oreo-beta/
The "fake patches" you're talking about are incomplete security patches, in which a few patches are missing, not fully faked ones.

Only June 1st Security (No Oreo) ?

According to the latest Maintenance Release notes by Motorola.
They only mentioned about June 1st 2018 Security Patch.
No Major update mentioned. :crying:

Dude, my phone is still stuck on January's patch. Lenovorola = never again.

No need to open the 100th thread about Oreo update. You could have used this one instead:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/how-to/official-moto-g5-8-1-oreo-release-notes-t3804632
The release notes regarding Oreo update
https://support.motorola.com/us/en/solution/ms130856
are saying the update is coming with Oreo and with the June security patch for Oreo, not for Nougat. As the soak tests haven't even started it is not expected that Oreo comes to our device before August.

In the release notes of Motorola it says Oreo and June security patch which probably means the security patch for Oreo, not for Nougat.

I am not sure if the soak test even started. So this was expected.
The Oreo will probably come somewhere in the next 2 months.
Gobsmacked, UK has got June update on retgb, normally 3 month's behind reteu.
Motorola must be starting to get their act together, yippee :good:

July Security Patch

Just got the July Security patch 8.0.0.325(C675).
nice... just security update? nothing else? then again, it's 1st August for me... no more July.. hahaha
I dont know if you'll are facing this, but I am facing some heating issues after July security patch update which results in rapid battery drain. I know you'll will suggest me to do a phone reset but seriously is that even required?. ?. Can't just reset phone after very new update.
Still waiting for my July security update, or should I say July and August security updates. EU version here.
Otherwise this phone has been pretty damn awesome
Are you guys able to use ldac on your Honor 8 pros?

I too have the EU Version (C432). I contacted Honor support yesterday because I saw on the Firmware Finder that there are new updates around. The guy on chat told me that my phone is on the current official build (366).
