Nice! Good to see Asus stepping up to the plate and providing regular bug fixes and updates

Oops, maybe that was for rog 1 ???

What is the security patch version with this update? Is it still Oct or has it got Nov or Dec?

I believe the 10 indicates the month of the security update, which is October

I have manually updated mine by downloading and updating . android update is october, it is for rog phone 2
https://www.asus.com.cn/Phone/ROG-Phone-II/HelpDesk_Download/

I just updated my Asus rog phone 2 this morning..

Anyone know when the WW version is coming?

Just a guess but probably this week if you see the pattern of previous releases

Regarding update firmwares you can get them from ASUS support page all of them will stay there when they are added. So no need to upload them somewhere else. Unless someone else would like to share the files, i would be happy to add the links to the first page.

Personally i love the Oreo Rom on the ROG more than the Pie Rom of the ROG 2, overall i think the Oreo Rom is polished compared to the half baked Pie Rom. The physical size of the ROG phone is just perfect in hand compared to the ROG 2. Other than that they are pretty much a like except for the obvious hardware differences. I was thinking of selling the ROG since i got the ROG 2 but i am keeping both until something better comes a long and then i might sell the ROG phone. But to be honest out of all the phones that i have bought and used these 2 phones are my favorite.

You can check the photos it's for the CN rom. I am still on the stock CN rom. I haven't tempered with the phone yet waiting to see if flashing the WW rom will still get updates.
But if someone has flashed the WW rom over the CN and still not able to get OTA it doesn't necessarily mean he will not get OTA, generally speaking the CN rom gets faster updates than the WW rom.

WARNING that the newest OTA update (9-29-2019) patches out the ability to disable the built-in Launcher. So if you update you will be stuck using that launcher instead of Nova, Apex, etc.

Hello,
the CN version is full of Chinese apps as you can realize... there are the themes, yes and also several additional eye-candies but the user experience is really poor for the CN language. Also with that, no updates...
I guess the best it will a custom rom with the spoofed fingerprint to get security patches at least.

WW rom 1910.35 FOTA update

https://mega.nz/#!w0ZHjA6I!hrKmMca42c5798fuqCWZgM8Vcl5V6TAQsHipLhpjC5o
Here we go, WW update, latest rom for us! Thanks to chicken on the Vietnam telegram group. I'll post more later when I get home regarding magisk etc.
For now though, place in root of the storage and restart. But hang fire of you're rooted and want to remain so, I'll post instructions later, unless of course you know what you're doing. I just want to check magisk via ota method works before I post in detail here...
Changelog
WW 1910.35
Added grid display for game selection in the Games Library of Armoury Crate
Added game cover customization in*the Games Library of Armoury Crate
Added AirTriggers slide gesture in Game Genie (Beta)
Fixed the issue where navigation bar couldn't be hidden when playing "Black Desert"
Fixed the issue where Game Genie panel was pulled out easily when Key Mapping was used
Update with root : I was running magisk 20.1 prior to updating. After placing ota in root of internal storage and rebooting, system update should be detected. Click to install. Once completed don't restart the device, just choose 'later', then go to magisk manager and choose install. Then choose install ota. After that, reboot and you should have a fully updated and working latest rom with latest magisk still intact
Root and stock boot img's should you need...

Umm, good question! I just posted the changelog, not sure what it allows to do. Will have a Google etc later if I get a chance...
Perhaps, for instance, when going around corners in a car racing game the slide option allows gradual increase in steering? But that's a complete guess at this point!
Thanks. Btw anyone using Paypal or Bank apps? Not working after rooting right?

Basically, yeah, it allows gradual sliding to control, for instance, walking /sprinting in pubg or gradual drifting in asphalt... But I have used it yet, I'm only telling you what I was told! Hopefully that's correct though...

Haven't gotten this OTA update, didn't get .25 either. I'm not sure why because my device is untouched. Anybody else seeing this issue? I'm on a WW device, Indian variant, 8/128.

1. Have you had any updates without forcing them?
2. These updates are early releases from CN or Taiwan or Vietnam (somewhere along those lines) and the updates for eu and India market will no doubt get released at some point in the future from the main asus website.
3. Although you may have bought a device with WW rom installed, doesn't mean the fingerprint has been changed. You can check with device info hw from playstore. You'll find, under system, your product id and rom plus fingerprint, they all need to match.
4. That said, even then I'm not sure (if they do all match) you'll get the updates without manually installing them. I can't say for sure as I always download the early bird releases from Vietnam telegram group. I've never waited to see if updates to indeed happen automatically here in UK...
Hope some of this helps...

1. Yes, I've gotten the .21 update which is the only one that has come out since I bought the phone.
2. I thought so too, just need to confirm.
3. It's an official Indian variant from Asus, so fingerprint mismatch is unlikely. I think it's just that .25 was never officially released, and I'll probably get .35 soon. Hopefully!
Thanks for your help.

.21 was an official release. .25 still hasnt been updated on the Asus Bios firmware page, so I assume it wasnt official. .35 still hasn't been updated on the Asus Bios firmware page, so its still not available. If you have a genuine WW phone (like my North American WW bought from B&H) then just download, put in the root directory, and reboot the phone to install.
I've just done mine, and works great! :good::good:

I'll wait for a couple of days and then try doing that. OTA for Indian units is usually delayed so I'm hoping I'll get it by the end of this week.

New OTA update 11.0.5.0 ?

I have 11.0.4.0 Global (android 10).
I got a notice for an interim update, with the notes referring to bug fixes for some of the things mentioned in Android 10. I recall mention of the navigation in second space and something about SIM card
However after about an hour, before I had time to download, the update notice disappeared and the update screen show "no updates available"
Did they pull the update?
In any case I hope the address the wife/BT issue because it is quite severe (and inconvenient), it was not mentioned.
I actually got the update

the update seems to be still available so you might be having some notifications issues, try manual check for update.

Checking for the software update
[Please check your device to see if you already have the latest software installed. Verify your Build number matches the official build by checking Settings -> About phone -> Build number. See section below]

Go to Settings -> System -> System update -> Check for update
Install the software update
Depending on your network connection speed and amount of apps involved, this will take about 25-50 minutes
Reboot the device after taking the update
Updating your apps
Many of the key apps have new features and improvements for Pixel 6. Please check to make sure that your apps are up to date by going to Play Store -> Your Account Icon -> Manage apps & device -> Update all.
Timing
Due to deployment timelines and staged rollouts, some updates may not be available until 10/28.

No changelog yet that I am aware of, only reports of people claiming that after the update you have to re-learn the fingerprint scanner and then it supposedly works better.

They posted it on their site and stated it's for TW only. WTF is TW? Global room is WW, origin Chinese is CN. And you must keep the same SKU.

Got an official reply from Zentalk forum.
WW users can flash the TW version. But I am not sure if you can go back to WW...I think it should be possible.
Still waiting for RAW. Hopefully it'll be soon
Ok, i have updated my phone today. Root still exist, entire update last about 1 minute. Everything works fine. We will see in a couple of days how bad this update is
I upgraded to A11, too.
Seems to run well so far. Better than A10 so far.
Broken 120hz. Was iffy not sure was the update or always been like that, messed with sleeping phone then suddenly ok....
still no update for RAW >.>
With a ww fingerprint, can I use manual update to update my Tencent phone to this version from a10 or do I need to use raw?
Updated link for CN.
Been almost half a year but RAW never came out :*(
True, I've been waiting for RAW too. I'm still on an early version of A9, pretty bad. maybe i should raw flash to A10.
