Same here, nothing changed. This is the patch just for security from Google. I think they will fix all this bugs only with Android Pie update, just not to make a double work )

I cant install, error.

I have root and bootloader unlocked, but i have flashed the boot.img to unroot, and still dont installing. Any suggestions? I dont want to flash stock again lol
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] psichokillah:
I have unlocked bootloader and had root. I uninstalled Magisk manager and restored the images then used completely uninstall and now it doesn't want to update.

Can anyone help?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] bledina:
I got the update yesterday, the only thing that I can tell is changed is the carrier name. It used to be fine but the October update broke something so that it was displaying the old name of my carrier but it's back to the current one since the update.

Smart lock is still half broken for me and didn't notice anything different regarding the proximity sensor.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] kishd:
Flash full rom from here http://en.miui.com/getrom.php?r=353&m=yes&app=false

without wiping data and then run the two updates to get to the latest. Boot into temp twrp from TingyiChen and install magisk zip again to root.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] alexspina:
Sorry for my English.

this morning I received the November update about 1 GB. I still had the September version. in my phone there was magisk installed and has been updated too. After I pached the boot image againg and now it's all right
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Endeavour1934:
1. Settings > Security > Trust agents > disable Smart Lock

2. Reboot

3. Go again into the same menu and enable Smart Lock.

Smart lock should be working fine now.

November OTA f....d my phone. TmobileNL. I had to remove both cards, change language to english, re-inserted my cards and everything is working again. Strange update policy..
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] JamieAmmar:
Should be called 'bugdates'. Nonetheless, no security update yet for the A2 Lite so they better be fixing some stuff.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] MeA2:
With my Dutch KPN SIM card inserted in either sim slot 1 or 2 the screen flashes and phone reboots. This happens when the phone has booted and SIM pin code is asked. So the sim card is recognized, but it seems this update has changed something in accessing sim slots which causes short circuit with this type of simcard. Simcard works fine in another phone. I had to remove the SIM card before I could install the November update to prevent "Try Again" and "Factory reset" message.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] msrowley:
I believe they have pulled the OTA, maybe to address the above bugs. After checking for new updates, I get nothing... Hope they fix the Sim bug soon
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] fairyrobot:
I just installed it without a hitch, so it doesn't look like they pulled it.

I tried to restart my phone and check again, still no luck. I am in Greece. In which country are you?? As it is an Android one device, I think region doesn't affect the rollout if someone manually checks for new updates.

I'm in the netherlands, but I agree, that shouldn't really matter afaik.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] JeffreyM:
My girlfriend is having some issues with the latest update.

She has the phone in dutch language.

After the update, the phone won't boot anymore. It is fixed after removing simcard.

Changing the language from dutch to English and inserting the simcard back to the phone.

Than I can change back to dutch language and everything is working...

But if I reboot the phone, same issues again!

Only fix right now is to keep the english language. (rebooting has no side-effects)

Hope they fix this soon because she needs the dutch language. :)

Downgrade to the October version. There does not seem to be any advantage to using the November software.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] kandarpjha:
Just updated to November update. No noticeable difference yet. Smart Lock is now working after being vanished in October update.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] AoD7:
Still no update for me also in Greece did they pull it off before they distribute the batch for our country maybe or something?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] msrowley:
Tried with another mi a2 here in Greece. No available update for that device either. It's weird that this OTA has Geo restrictions.

So im not receiving nov security pacth after clean flash n lock via mi flashtool (latest fastboot rom from mi website with oct security pacth)

Before that i was on full stock and updated to nov pacth than i jump to android pie beta

With guide available

Fastboot oem unlock

Fastboot flashing unlock

Fastboot flashing unlock_critical

And following flash all available comand to flash all img through slot a n b

Are any wrong procedure to back completely stock and locked bootloader to recieve ota update normally ?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] harmtemolder:
If you have the bootloop, this might fix it for you:

Start the phone without SIM card

Set language to English

Put the SIM card back in

Remove the SIM card's PIN

Set the phone back to your language (mine is Dutch)

This worked for me

btw im using this version jasmine_global_images_V9.6.14.0.ODIMIFE_8.1
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] kishd:
As your bootloader is locked you would have to wait for the Xiaomi update servers to come online again. I think it will be soon and probably go straight to Android Pie.

I am still on October update, haven't got a single notification for new updates since October. Also manual check for updates shows I'm on the latest available update. I believe it is region specific. I am from Greece. It sucks that Xiaomi doesn't give an official statement somewhere to know what is happening...
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] cleancut80:
Yes... I'm also from Greece and there is no November patch on the horizon. We're flying blind here. What the heck is going on with the updates??
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] onimorza:
I had an issue with the 1st November update; it messed up systems that were in Dutch; when you rebooted it started flashing at the SIM PIN screen.

There were different solutions:

- one was was to remove the SIM, enter the OS and set it in English;

- another one was to remove the sim, enter the OE and remove the SIM PIN code, that way it could stay in Dutch.

The 2nd November update solved this issue.

But in the meantime I also got the PIE update and it's solved in that one too.

I guess if you didn't get those last update notifications, you could try to backup your stuff, factory reset to clean stock and check for updates then, before setting up your phone again.

EDIT: there is also a trick with a VPN that connects to the Netherlands to be able to update; search forum for further details.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Gabskz:
Guys, I guess I have issue with fast battery discharge (than before).

Before second november update (actually i'm not sure, maybe something happened to battery itself), the SOT lasted the same amount, about 6-6,5 hours.

Now i'm testing SOT, did several restarts, hoping to get the same results as before.

I've just noticed that little CPUs min frequency is at 1401mhz. Before I thought it was FP problem. May be this was the lower SOT reason...

I wish I could just disable FP to get proper CPU work as before(

Do somebody now the case?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Ralfioni:
After updating to the november release my fingerprint sensor will only work in the primary user account. Who knows how to use multi user accounts and can test / confirm this? TIA
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chrisliphart:
I'm seeing people having to jump through some hoops at Verizon to get incoming SMS/MMS up and running on the 6T, and I use Xfinity Mobile (don't judge me; it's half the price, but uses Verizon's network!). My fear is that Comcast customer service being the literal worst in the world, no one there is going to know what "CDMA-less" means. Furthermore, I don't expect them to be willing to help me given that BYOD is currently for iPhones only. That said, I'm using an Essential PH-1 with no issues, so I'm hopeful I can get the 6T working. My unlocked 8/128 is waiting for me to pick up after work, so I guess I'll find out tonight, but I wanted to see if anyone's given it a go yet with Xfinity.

I'll post an update after I try tonight. I'm not thrilled about the likelihood of the restocking fee, but I'm really excited about this phone, so I'm willing to take that shot...

EDIT:

As a test, I threw my Essential PH-1 into just LTE mode and was able to receive a text and a picture message, so it may be that Xfinity Mobile already operates on the CDMA-less protocol on Verizon's network.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] deskjet390:
Are you able to make a call on LTE only?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chrisliphart:
On the Essential PH-1? No. But I expected that. Everything works perfectly in Global mode with Advanced LTE turned on.

I only put it in LTE only mode to test the incoming SMS/MMS.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] duffman452001:
I'll be trying here with my XM sim shortly once FedEx delivers it
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chrisliphart:
Yeah... No dice on Xfinity. On the phone right now trying to work up the chain and explain to them what I actually need. Up to Teir 3 now.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chrisliphart:
Tier 3 was actually pretty helpful, but I'm still not getting messages right now.. The feature that needs to be *removed* is called "Premium Message Block", apparently. I'm waiting on her to call me back to check in on me so we can move forward...
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] thompsr2:
Please continue to update your progress and what, if anything, was able to get things working. I ordered my 6t as soon as I could after seeing that it had Verizon certification. However, I'm extremely disappointed that my 6t does not work with xfinity mobile. So frustrating for something that should work and doesn't. Are you able to get data to work? My data does not work. Right now I get incoming and outgoing phone calls (including VoLTE), outgoing texts, but no data and no text reception
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chrisliphart:
She's going to do more research and get back to me. I'm just happy she's willing to help me out even though they don't do Android BYOD.

Data's working fine for me. The only issue I have is SMS/MMS incoming. And the only real issue I have with that is that I need that for 2FA. Right now, in order to get the phone set up, I put my SIM back in my Essential phone to get the codes. It's clunky, and in the process of that, I goofed up my settings in my Essential phone, so now I can't make calls on it. Again. lol So I've got one phone that does everything but get SMS/MMS, and one that does everything but make and receive phone calls. :sad trombone:
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] thompsr2:
Well that's frustrating. I don't understand why my data doesn't work. Has all of your troubleshooting been over the phone with xfinity? Did you have to call a special number to get the level of support that you're receiving?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chrisliphart:
I started with chat, but that guy was completely clueless. I then called the normal support number, and Tier 1 pushed me straight to Tier 3 after I explained that I knew exactly what I needed. Alice (Tier 3) knew exactly what I was talking about as soon as I said CDMA-less, told me what they call it in their system, made the change, and told me she'd call back in a bit to make sure it worked. When it didn't, she said she needed to do some research, and she'd call me back. That they're not outright dismissing it as "No BYOD!" is promising, but I'm concerned that her fix didn't work when she had such high confidence.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] thompsr2:
Ok, one more question for tonight. Were you upfront with them about the fact that you're trying to get OnePlus 6t to work? Otherwise, I hope to see an update from you in the next day or so with a success story.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chrisliphart:
Yep. I started off with "I'm going to preface this with I know you don't support BYOD with unlocked Android phones, and that's exactly what I'm trying to do with a OnePlus 6T." lol She appreciated me being upfront and once I explained the backstory with this phone on the Verizon network and said I needed CDMA-less provisioning, she knew just what I was looking for.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] duffman452001:
I apparently fat fingered my address when I ordered so ill be picking it up tomorrow. Hopefully you get it working otherwise I may just return it if they cant fix it.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chrisliphart:
Still haven't heard anything back. I remembered that I had an old Google Voice number that I haven't used in forever, so I've switched my 2FA stuff over to that, and told the whole 3 people I still SMS with to message me using other apps, so I'm minimally effected at this point, but I'm not going to give up. Hoping that one of us can get this working, as the phone is perfect in every other aspect.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] thompsr2:
What model is your phone? Mine is 8GB/256. I went to the verizon BYOD site and entered my IMEI. It said my phone wasn't compatible. It seems that some IMEIs are compatible. I wonder if this is why my data isn't working. Or maybe it has nothing to do with it. Who knows?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chrisliphart:
8/128 here. I wouldn't trust that IMEI checker. Lots of people with phones that work get that same error there. It seems to be a crapshoot for accuracy.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chrisliphart:
I've been giving your data issue some thought, since you're the only person I've heard with it (I've been keeping up with the Verizon threads in case I find something that helps). Did you monkey around with the settings in Phone app using the dialer code? And You're set to 2G/3G/4G in the regular settings with Mobile data turned on?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] thompsr2:
I am set to 2G/3G/4G, but I did mess with the settings within the dialer app. I tried all of the different combos with no success.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chrisliphart:
Make sure in there you're set to TD-SCDMA/CDMA/UMTS. And that Mobile Radio Power and VoLTE Provisioned are both turned on.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] thompsr2:
I double checked that I left it that way when I was done messing with it. But still no data.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chrisliphart:
Was data working before you poked around in there?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] thompsr2:
I don't know. I was on wifi from the time I first booted up all the way through the first time I entered the dialer settings menu. So I never noticed there was an issue until after the fact.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chrisliphart:
And data works with your SIM in your other phone? If so, I'd consider a factory reset of the OP so you at least get that working.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] thompsr2:
Data does work in my other phone. I have to a meeting so I'll have try the factory reset when I get out. I'll provide an update when it's done.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] kooldud07:
Were you able to make it work ? Please keep us posted. I will be receiving my oneplus 6t today.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chrisliphart:
No, I still do not have incoming messages. I'm at work, so I'm poking around with it as I can, but I'm not super-hopeful. I moved all of my 2-factor bits to my Google Voice number, and migrated the few SMS convos I have with people to other platforms to mitigate my issue, because aside from this, I love the phone.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] kooldud07:
Thanks for the update ! I will see if I get any different reply from xfinity team.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] thompsr2:
I did a factory reset, but data still does not work. I'm inclined to believe it never did and I just didn't notice due to being on wifi and the presence of the 'VoLTE' symbol giving me a false sense of success.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chrisliphart:
I've got someone on the OP forums that has no data too, so I don't think you're alone, but you two are the only two I've heard with data issues. Since you can't do anything with APNs, I'm not sure what to tell you in regards to that. :/
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] chrisliphart:
Someone on the OP forums got a response from Verizon in regards to the IMEI not being recognized for XM customers:

"To ensure your device is able to get white listed appropriately, Xfinity mobile's tech team would need to create a service ticket for your line. Once completed, that ticket is submitted to the appropriate team on our end who'll ensure your IMEI is properly updated for messaging services within 24 - 72 hours of ticket submission. I hope this information helps. "

This implies what I thought (that the Verizon IMEI database does carry through to XM (network-->carrier), and that XM does have a valid way to submit a ticket and fix at least that part of the issue. We'll still need to jump through the CDMA-less hoop, but given that the IMEI not being recognized was the biggest hurdle for most Verizon customers, and that a whole wave of Verizon users are reporting their phones are now being recognized properly, I'm hopeful this obstacle will be out of our way soon.

EDIT:

Just checked again using Verizon's BYOD checker, and my SIM 1 IMEI is now showing as a OnePlus 6T! So that's one hurdle down. I'll try calling XM again tonight to see if they can figure out what I need.
