Hi all,
I have a VZW 10 running 1.19. I'm interested in knowing if the connectivity issues, specifically Wi-Fi, have been fixed. The patch notes for 1.53 do address it, but has it been fixed.
I know there are workarounds, but this is a $550 phone. Wi-Fi should work out of the box.
Thanks for your help.

1.53 is for general US unlocked and not VZW. 1.53 needs non VZW firmware to work properly.
1.19 is a very old build (US launched with 1.21) so I'd expect a VZW update sometime in the next 30 days.

I'm on 1.19 as well shipped from Verizon. no update was available to 1.21 for me. I'm currently using viper now with 1.19 still, hoping to see something pop up on here :fingers-crossed:
I seem to have wifi issues using standard wifi, but if I use the wifi-5G connection It works flawless

Correct, 1.21 is ONLY for general unlocked versions and not VZW. You won't see a 1.21.617.* or 1.53.617.* update as those are not for your device. In fact you shouldn't use any *.617.* build as the 617 indicates it's not for your carrier but general unlocked.
You must use a VZW build because of firmware and custom VZW settings. Your only choice right now is to wait for VZW to push their build update.

My wifi was fine on 1.21, then was horrible with the 1.53 update. It's mostly alright now with a couple tweaks.

Interesting. How will future firmware updates work? Will we receive the same but with .605 at the end?

The build identifiers work like this = 1.53.617.5 <--- current gen unlocked build.
1.53 = primary build ID
.617. = is the carrier specific ID
5 = minor build revision ID
You're partly right. A VZW build would look like (taken from an M9 build) 3.37.605.7 where .605. is the VZW carrier ID. More than likely when they release the update it'll be higher than 1.53.*.*
If you're stock recovery and system then you'll get an OTA notification from VZW whenever their updates are available. There may be an RUU available once the updates are pushed and settled.
The OTA will have a new radio, firmware and system updates for your carrier. You must use matching firmware/system build in order to get the best performance. The firmware is the hardware layer while the system is the software/OS layer.
You should not use new system with old firmware or new firmware with old system files.
Great. Thank you. That helps. I will wait patiently for HTC and Verizon to fix this issue.

I know it's a tough spot and being patient can be hard.
I really don't think it'll be long before we see an update for you. The UK and US updates were about 3 weeks apart and we just got our US 1.53.* update a week or so ago. Give it a couple more weeks to pass the carrier approval stage and it'll get pushed out.
For sure, there will be an update. Try to be patient

I haven't experienced this exact issue but what I have experienced as a general drop in signal strength on the 10. I have a side-by-side comparison of signal with my m9 versus the 10 and there's a big difference. I'm on prepaid service so I'm planning on switching to AT&T next month just to see if their service is any better. So far no one from T-Mobile has been able to tell me why my service is so bad considering I have two towers less than 1 mile away from where I live, and when I first started service with T-Mobile about five years ago it was fantastic but I would say in the last six months to a year it has started to go downhill

I think you might be one of the lucky beta testers.
I got the update. Last week.
ATT site is live with the update, still nothing for me and software update check doesn't show anything.
What am I missing here?
Ok, I need advice....I'm in Japan for work I had to change to a local sim to get coverage, I don't have the ATT sim with me. How do I get the OTA update?
I believe that is the reason the update isn't materializing.
Anyone in the US get the update yet
Has anyone on AT&T in the US with an H871 received the Oreo update yet. I'm on the east coast and nothing here

I chatted with ATT today and they said it was an issue with them, that my phone should have gotten the update. I have to wait for 24 hours to see if it updates they will email me tomorrow to see if I got it, though I have to check it manually. I suggest anyone that didn't get the Oreo update to chat with att from the website and they will get it for you.
there is any chance to get one f...ing official kdz for the att&t? how is that possible that nobody can create or make a official kdz for the att&t

Some of you have already received the Oreo update ... or for some reason AT & T stopped the updates
A few days ago I bought a LG G6 H871 (AT & t) and I thought that I was going to get Oreo immediately and still nothing happens ... I have read several forums and some are updated but others are not.
So I never received the update after AT&T when they said they "pushed" it to my phone. Then today chatted them again for 30 mins they couldn't do a thing. A supervisor called me and spoke to me for 10 minutes asking for the build number the IEMI. His final response was that AT&T did not push the update just the base band version so the phone can receive the update from yep LG. He gave me LG'S 80 number spoke to them they said Google actually pushes the update not LG.. I said so why did you open this big deal update center then she didn't have an answer.What a joke. I'm still thinking of moving onto an iPhone as much as I hate saying that but the Android updates just don't cut it and with locked boot loaders what's the diff. AT&T said the update has been available for the G6 (H871) since June 5th... SO WHERE THE HELL IS IT, I give up

Since June 5 and nothing happens, incredible! I tried to use LG BRIDGE, but I received a notification '' Verification error '' so I do not even use LG BRIDGE to update it, it's for these reasons that phone companies and manufacturers lose prestige, I think that just like you will use IPHONE once again . less problems.

It's been said for a few times already that only the USA & Canada got the official rollout, rest of the world will have to wait until the December update.
On top of that, Google always does time-shift rollouts, meaning even if you are in the right region, it can still take up to 7 or 10 days until you get it.

I would suggest that the firmware variant you want to use is always in relation to where you're going to use it, and nothing else. EMEA (A4) for anyone in Europe, Middle East, and Africa. A repeated question is whether folks in the United States should still use the U.S. Carrier version even if they have a factory unlocked Pixel. The answer is always, if you're on a U.S. Carrier, use the U.S. Carrier version, so I would proceed with the same logic for A4 or the others.

I've heard rumors that they stopped pushing the update. Just rumors, though, so no idea if it's true. I haven't noticed articles confirming this, so I'm not much help.

I'm thinking it's just a very, slow rollout. Both the factory images and the full OTA images are still up so I don't think they would pull the rollout via GMS and leave the images up (unless there was a problem with that particular way of updating). But hey, you never know with Google

So is Samsung neglecting the S21 FE?
It probably has more to do with the carriers at this point. They still have to attach all of their bloatware to it.

Part of their commitment has been a very public announcement about consistent support and a minimum number of OS updates. Having purchased a Samsung for this reason, I'm beginning to feel concerned about the device's security.
I have the SM-G990U1/DS and even though it's unlocked it seems to be based on a T-Mobile build based off the "TMB" in the URL I'm given to "learn more" from my last successful update on Dec 20th. According to Sammobile, none of the G990U1 models have received OneUI 5 yet, but the G990U *has*... for the ones carrier locked to Comcast or Xfinity Mobile.

I have a G990U3/DS, factory unlocked direct from Samsung. ATT is my carrier. Still no update for UI 5. Latest update is Security patch November 1

I had the same problem with a G990U1/DS model. I bought it used from Amazon. Although it is unlocked, my carrier is ATT and i could not get visual voicemail to work. I spent 2 hrs with ATT tech support and could not get it to work. For some reason, some aspects of the phone (including visual VM), was native to verizon or t-mobile and could not be undone. Althought the used phone was in MINT condition, i had to return it because it didnt play well with ATT.
ATT has a list of 21FE models compatible with their network and G990U1/DS was not on their list of devices.

But they do support the non "DS" (dual SIM) version. In general, AT&T has become very picky lately on which devices they'll deem "compatible". And for no good reason.
Has anyone tried this for our S21 FE? And, what is XAA?
