Thanks! No updated screenshots in OP this month as I am running beta!

Do I need to download and install firmware sequentially from the version I am using now to the latest version?
I mean lets say I am on version1, then version 2 has big updates, latest version is version3.
If I skip ver2 and straight to update to ver3, does it mean that I will miss out on new features introduced in ver2?

Depending on method you are using to update.
In case of OTA updates, you won't have choice and needs to go for all updates you receive subsequently.
In case of Odin updates, you can straightway flash latest version irrespective of your current version.

How do u find the beta?

There are dedicated threads in this forum section tho you may struggle to go to it if you already updated to this November release, I guess we will see 12 for next months release.

Assuming that the beta program will follow the same trend as the previous one, me too imagine that the stable version will be released within the first week of December or earlier (precisely in conjunction with the usual release of monthly security patches).

Sorry I should have been clearer. How iz the experience on the latest beta?

Anyone experiencing mobile data issues with the latest update? Slower speeds, switching between 5G and H+ etc etc?

Previous betas were flawless for me in this respect.

Please post beta discussions on beta threads .

It might create a lot of confusions and conflict for people on stable versions

If I flash manually via Odin, does it mean I won't ever get OTA again?
I am on AUHB 1 Aug security patch, XSA / Australia, which I manually flashed via Odin several months back.
Never received OTA afterwards..

How is Nov update btw?

 

[Electronic Punk]

If you manually flash to something that does get an update then you should be good.

Say you are on version A, version B is released and you want it
But in Australia, they never get B and only go to C, you wont get an OTA from B to C.
But things are very much in sync, worst case you just flash C manually again.

How's the new update? How's battery life?

How's the new update? How's battery life?

As bad as the oct update in my opinion. I ve never had such a bad battery life with the latest 2 updates. I have just backed up my phone s data via smart switch and i am seriously thinking of factory resetting my phone. Maybe it s just some app or service whose eating a lot of battery.
