[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] Pixelxluser:
The september 2017 Security Patch should have been released already. But due to some reasons, Google has delayed the upcoming monthly security update. The reason for the delay could be the release of a new stable Android 8.0.0 Oreo firmware update for Google Pixel and Nexus phone. Under the AOSP project, Google released 3 sets of monthly updates. One for the latest Android 8.0 Oreo, another for 7.1 Nougat, and finally the Marshmallow. Today, the Google Pixel XL device is receiving the September 2017 security patch OTA.

The first Google devices to receive the September 2017 Security Patch are the Unlocked Pixel XL 128 GB on AT&T and Verizon. That means, the US carriers shall receive the OTA update before the global roll out. The international variant of Pixel, Pixel XL, Nexus 6P, and Nexus 5X may receive the next security patch as soon as today. So stay tuned as we will list the update here.

The OTA update for AT&T Pixel XL brings the firmware build number OPR3.170623.007 dated September 5th 2017 level based on Android 8.0.0 Oreo. This an upgrade over the previous OPR6.170623.012 August 5th 2017 8.0.0 Patch.

This September OTA update comes in a very small OTA package. It weight about 50.61 MB in size. The changelog states the following.

This update fixes critical bugs and improves the performance and stability of your Pixel XL. If you download updates over the cellular network or while roaming, additional charges may apply. Update size 50.6 MB

Note: Google Pixel XL users have reported that the OTA notification shows that it is based on Android 7.1.2 Nougat, whereas the Pixel devices are already running 8.0.0 Oreo. However, upon update, the Android version is based on 8.0.0 Oreo and September 2017 security patch level. So it could be an error from Google’s side.

What's in the security patch

There are 30 issues resolved in the security patch dated 2017-09-01 and 51 in the 2017-09-05 one. Google notes that the two security patch level strings provide “Android partners with the flexibility to more quickly fix a subset of vulnerabilities that are similar across all Android devices.”

Google devices will receive the latter patch, while devices from other manufacturers will also feature OEM-specific fixes. This month’s bulletin also includes a new section that lists patches that are specific to Google devices.

Vulnerabilities range from moderate to critical, with the most severe possibly enabling remote code execution when browsing, using email, or MMS. However, Google notes that there are no reports of customers being affected by these security issues.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] Pixelxluser:
Still not interested? Some people are willing to give up root for a little while in order to improve their security... Only someone who thinks having root 24/7 is better than improving security is something different.. I know with this patch it stops people from remotely controlling you're device... I think if I was rooted I'd unroot and add this security protection...
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] TonikJDK:
If someone is rooting, why not apply the update and reroot. We all do that every month. I just did mine for this update. I get the loss of security if you root but you dont need to give up root to update.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] piperx:
I would like to know where you copied & pasted this info since at&t does not sell the pixel, so, I can't see them releasing a ota.

Last I knew, google controls this
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] GhostRider5666:
I was rooted on Oreo and updated to this new build and my service still sucks? I'm right next to a cell tower and my phone is going from -64 to -80dbm and its making my battery tank. I'm about to go back to 7.1.2.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] Pixelxluser:
I think a big misconception is trying to pull people away from improving their own security and safety by using the whole oh you will lose root if you do that and may lock you're bootloader.. just because you personally don't care about you're own safety doesn't mean you should try to prevent someone else from improving their own safety.. come on the fact is it's just root you will be fine to live without it for a little while it's not going to hurt you to give it up for a few...
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] Pixelxluser:
And another thing is all the new pixels and Pixel XL are gonna come preinstalled with these new security patchs so you all might as well get used to it...
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] iainaaldrich:
I don't understand why Google doesn't post these on their website immediately. I have a Pixel on Verizon and have no way of accessing it until they finally publish the update to their site or zi just start receiving it. It's always this awkward way with a lot if confusion. It would also be nice if they fixed the few small bugs in Oreo (i.e. picture in picture mode causing reboots when you turn the screen off/back on). It's just a little annoying.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] Pixelxluser:
The Sept security patch also fixes a Bluetooth problem. It's recommend to update to any software with Sept security patch and later security patch

Google is still working on getting the September security patches out the door, but it has posted a security bulletin detailing the changes. Several of the flaws noted in the bulletin are part of an enormous Bluetooth vulnerability discovered by Armis Labs, which bills itself as an IoT security firm. The "BlueBorne" attack exposes billions of Android devices to complete takeover by hackers, but it's not only Android. The same flaw exists in Windows, Linux, and some versions of iOS.

BlueBorne is dangerous because most devices have Bluetooth active even when it's not actively being used, and an attacker does not need to pair with the target device to completely take it over. There are eight vulnerabilities listed by Armis, four of which are critical (though Google's classifications differ). The most severe issues are the two remote code executions, which allow an attacker to completely own a device without the user even knowing. These flaws are present in the Bluetooth Network Encapsulation Protocol (BNEP) service, which is used for internet sharing and networking.

You don't even need an internet connection to infect a device, and the Android demo above is wild. If one of the affected devices has Bluetooth on, it's a target. The attacker can gain complete control of the phone to launch any app, install malware, and exfiltrate data. Armis estimates that about 8 billion devices are vulnerable, including 2 billion Android phones, tablets, set top boxes, and watches. There are another 2 billion Windows devices and around 1 billion iOS phones and tablets affected. BlueBorne doesn't work on iOS 10, so the damage is mitigated there.

BlueBorne vulnerabilities in the security bulletin

Most of the vulnerabilities in Android reported by Armis affect all recent builds of the OS, so Google is adding a lot of patches to AOSP. It's up to OEMs to push those out to devices, though. Anything with a patch level of September 1st, 2017 or later will have the necessary fixes. It's going to take time for this patch to roll out, and in the meantime, there are a lot of vulnerable devices.

This was took from Android polices website

It's also recommend that the devs here on xda get rid of the software which is vuneralable to theses problems.. it doesn't really show good faith of a Dev if they know there's security problems in the roms but yet keep them posted for someone to download and install...

[Teclast X98 Air 3G] azerty111:
Hi everybody,

I spent my time to find a solution to install Windows 10 but without success...

I followed tutorials but i'm blocked at the moment where I select my key into the Bios (2.05) -> Boot override and nothing happens it flash quickly and I can select the key indefinitely.

Someone can help me ?

Many thanks.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] cubal1br3:
Hi, there are a few key things you need to do to ensure proper recognition and install:

1. Windows must be 32bit (no connection to your issue just mentioning it, because 64bit install will brick your device)

2. Use Rufus tool to create a bootable drive and in the Partition Scheme menu choose GPT

If you do all of the above and your flash drive is not faulty, you should not encounter any issues

If you still do, try to turn off your device and turn it on by keeping the power + volume up buttons together to get the dual boot screen. From there you should be able to click on the windows icon if your flash drive is prepared correctly and the setup will start.

P.S. Silly quiestion but are you sure you have the dual OS bios?
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] azerty111:
Hi,

Step 1 already did but in the second step when I keep power + volume up nothing happens only booting.

I don't think I have the DualBios but I can't find the right files with a good tutorial.

Thanks
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] cubal1br3:
Hi, I did flash a dual os bios form c6j8 to my m5c5 (which now works fine with Windows 10 32bit), but you must understand you do that at you own risk and may cause you to brick your device.

This is the thread that explains how to flash the bios https://xdaforums.com/x98-air/help/unbrick-bios-softbrick-withouth-eeprom-t3285054 and you can find the dual bios for c5j8 around the forum. If you can't I can zip mine and post them somewhere.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] azerty111:
Hi,

I don't want to take this risk but thank You.

Do You have an idea if we can install Android 6.0 or 7.0 on this tablet ?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ducogranger:
I have an AT&T Note II from the US and I currently live in the Republic of Georgia. I bought it from a friend when my Nokia workhorse finally died after 8 years.

Friend told me about the situation up front and I found that the it was a pretty simple solution, punch in some numbers, get through a couple menus then no prob... except the phone was 4.4.2 and not 4.1.1.

Looked online for a good 4 days and finally decided against my better wishes to try to flash to 4.1.1. Got it done but it got stuck on the pulsating Samsung screen for a ton of time. I made the fateful mistake of pulling the battery to restart it.

It is unresponsive except for a frozen empty battery gif that generally appears before the charging batter gif appears when you connect it to a charger.

Phone will not go into DL or Recovery mode.

Plz help :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] audit13:
Where did you get 4.1.1 and how did you flash it?

Try leaving it in the charger for a few hours and try to get into download mode.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ducogranger:
I looked in a lot of different places and had troubles getting the file. I encountered a lot of dead links or file sharing sites that had ad loops. After about the 5th or 6th site I found KIES_HOME_I317UCALJ2_I317ATTALJ2_215287_REV04_user _low_ship.tar.md5 . but I dont recall from where exactly.

I popped it in using Odin as instructed by the many guides that are on the internet.

I am now able to get it to boot through all four splash screens (Note II -> samsung -> AT&T -> samsung) and now it is stuck on the pulsating Samsung for as long as I allow it.

Any tips on what to do next?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] audit13:
Was the phone factory reset after flashing with Odin?

If the phone was running a 4.3 or newer bootloader, flashing an older bootloader or an incompatible bootloader/modem combination can hard brick the phone.

Att never released a full firmware for the phone after 4.1.1 so you need to be selective as to what can be safely flashed.

You need to find a flashable stock kk ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ducogranger:
I was able to get a 4.4.2 and reflash it to the original state. It is still SIM locked though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] audit13:
If the phone is an sgh-i317 and it is not running 4.1.1, you'll have to unlock using a code from either the carrier or an unlocker.

There is no free method.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ducogranger:
Im in Georgia and never used the said carrier so their support is reluctant to help me.. I tried flashing the 4.1.1 and that soft bricked it in the first place. Do you know of any good unlock software?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] audit13:
I don't know of any free software to unlock the phone.

Did you ask for an unlock code here: https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/request/#/unlockstep1

Another way is to buy an unlock code from eBay.

Do you need to soft-reset after this? I'm assuming not since the screen-alignment process seems to make the change and then not require a soft reset.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] experot:
I m willing to buy this phone for HiRes music and it is cheaper now. But I want to know if this thing has portrait mode or not.

Portrait Mode: It is similar to bouque effect present in dslr or in simple words background becomes blur so the foreground stands out clearer.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] dudeawsome:
well in a sense with manual mode yeah because you can select what you want in focus
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] CHH2:
No, the V20 does not have that. The V20 is quite the exact opposite of the iPhone. The iPhone is for people who can't or won't figure things out for themselves. The V20 is for those who know and want to do things themselves and have more control. You can use the Google Camera app and use its blur mode if you want though.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] experot:
I don't think google camera app uses dual camera setup,that can be intalled to any phone and doesn't provide good bg blur effect.

Still thanks for reply.

Tell me if there is any other option in Manual mode etc
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] anonymoustl:
There are at least 5 camera apps I can think of that allows this... However, I am not going to publicly promote a product or service that if obtained through proper stores,costs money. So... Sorry about that. I searched for aDSLR solution for some time. The main issue I was coming across was most replacement alps made it look like someone ate some potato chips, then touched all over the camera(s) lens(es) with said hands without properly wiping them all over their roommates couch.

Come to think of it.... I was eating some hamburger flavored chips.......hmmm
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] CHH2:
Both the Google camera app and the iPhone are going to do the same thing, which is use software trickery to blur the background by using information based on changes of depth. iPhone does this using two cameras and the Google app uses one and just has you "pan" the camera up and does some nifty calculations. As for installing it on any phone, you're in the V20 section asking about what to use on a V20. Someone ported it to the V20 and I've been using it for when I want auto photos since then just as well as I would on my Nexus devices. So I don't understand your point. The Google app actually does a decent job for software based trickery.

As for any other options in manual mode, that's not the point of manual mode. Manual mode is for those who want full control over their images. This means you are in charge of pre and post production. Want a specific type of light? Then find and/or set up that type of light. Want background blur? You will have to know what it takes to get blur out of this sensor size and be able to set that situation up. Like I said before, the V20 is not a dummy mode phone.

Ultimately though, if you want to get bokeh all the time all day long, you need at least a full frame DSLR and a very large aperture lens attached to it. Even dedicated cameras with fast lenses with sensors larger than anything in a phone run into issues creating bokeh in certain situations. Or, expand your photography horizons. If all you care about is bokeh, you need to be a bit more creative.

If you still aren't happy with any of the above, just get an iPhone. I hear they're great for when you don't want to have to do any thinking at all.
