Good one! Yes, I caught a problem with my firewall right before the update would've been forced.

@TechNash, by the way, it's a Sunday night in Boston (8:34 PM EST) now but there is no 5.4.0.2 update available for my HD's 8. Have you missed/messed something? Could you please post a screenshot with 5.4.0.2 update?
P.S. Actually, I don't care much for updates/possible root/and other mess: I just use & enjoy this prefect ultra-cheap but great device... However will be good to know what do you mean by your post

@sensboston
Yeah so they removed it...
I ended up getting the update because I forgot to turn my firewall on. It literally said "Your device updated to 5.4.0.2." I can also prove this because when i fired up the tablet it said "Optimising your android system" a screen of which I've never seen...
Well time to lock the thread...

December 19

Tomorrow is the 19th.
Should we be expecting the big update...
Any idea's on what it will include in addition to flash ?
I have a feeling it's going to come and go. An their will be no updates.
Most likely they are going to wait a few days and then release a state-
ment that they are working on a major update and as soon as it's done
they will push it out.
I would say, second or third week of Jan. of 2011 for the next patch
from Viewsonic.
Looks like a wait and see ...
Today is the day!

I have my device running stock right now (and FC'ing I might add) as I wait....and wait...and wait....

Poor Roebeet. I kinda feel like we should just buy you another tablet just to get these updates. Because running stock just sucks.

This awesome community already did. I just need SEARS to be kind enough to offer up an outlet device that I don't have to fly to, to pick up.
I keep hoping that someone offers a scratched up floor model on eBay, for a deep discount. That would be the perfect dev device for me.

Where in PA are you? I can drive to Freehold and get that one and drive it to you if you are close to me.
I just purchased the one from Novi, MI, purchased one a week ago, and they sent it back, so I couldnt purchase it. So this time I called them right after I ordered it and made sure I get the product, and I'll tell them if its actually broken or not...

There's a Freehold one?? I'm near Trenton. (checks site)
EDIT: Nothing. I've been scanning it on and off all morning. I actually saw a Freehold one about 2 weeks back, but I wasn't looking for an extra one at the time. Too bad, because Freehold is an hour away so definitely do-able.
If there is ANY truth to the Gtablet being pulled by Viewsonic, the CS line will be shut off anytime, within days and they will not bother with the FW release. All of this stuff costs money.

I have never had wireless or FC problems. I guess that is why I was never motivated to install a custom ROM. I just installed all the mods on the original UI.
On a related note. Since this update (supposedly) contains Flash for the g-tablet, should I remove the Flash hack first?

We already have those files (I did look at it) - I can tell by the HTC stuff and other files in there that it's the same Gapps we've been using for the last month.

This is a great little tablet, Viewsonic has to know they screwed up the software. The hardware doesn't seem to be the problem in my book.

It's ALWAYS been the stock fw that wasn't any good. When I first got mine, I had this crazy idea of staying stock, but the original fw would always Force Close in the news page, and then the update resulted in the weather app Force Closing on me, so I moved onto custom fw and settled on TnT lite.
I might even go back to trying stock fw if TnT ever get their act together...
Now, I understand from the 3316(IIRC) thread that flash is still not included, but their website is still claiming that flash support would be released yesterday. (Odd day, Sunday, to release a fw update...)

Update Affect Wireless Hotspot?

This may be a dumb question...but, I find the timing of this update to be somewhat overly coincidental. Our free mobile hotspot trial is set to expire on the 15th, and this begins rolling out on the 12th...
Is it possible this update may also contain something that disables our hotspot feature? Or does one have nothing to do with the other?
Edit: I'm in Sarasota, Florida and one of the people who has been stuck on Rev A ever since that outage a few weeks back. As of today, I notice that finally it is back to the hybrid network...also coinsiding with the day this update rolls out. Just thought I would point this out for.people who have had the same issue.
Update: After going ahead with the update, upon turning on the wireless hot spot feature, for the first time it gave me a warning saying the feature would only be available for a limited time and that when that time was up I'd have to pay...interesting.
I'm in Jacksonville and only lost 4g for a day. Hope the update doesn't kill hotspot.
Sent from my rooted Thunderbolt.
no the update doesn't kill the hotspot. infact i can't say much right now but you will actually be pleasantly surprised come may 15th
You have us all curious now, chaos? Is Verizon letting us keep it? If they do that may be incentive enough for me not to root.

Touchscreen issues with last update?

Hey guys,
I'm currently running CM12 nightly and the touchscreen issues are killing me. Has anybody tried both CM12 and the latest CM11S update? Is the touchscreen any better there? I just don't want to downgrade for nothing.
Thanks

Great! Do you know the Manufacture date?
I started the RMA process last Tuesday. By Wednesday the RMA was initiated, and on Friday TNT (their carrier) called me to schedule a pickup. Since they were using UPS, I opted for a drop off.
Printed all the required documents to export the phone back to Hong Kong, and then I dropped the package with UPS on Saturday morning.
I currently see an order under my OnePlus account, so I guess they'll send me a brand new unit. We'll see!

Also some more updates, the touch is still a bit finicky and its still not as responsive as my nexus 7 or moto G but it is definitely a GREAT improvement over my old phone. Typing works almost flawlessly although at times it lags a bit. I also noticed the Cyanogenmod logo on the back cover is gone

You can probably the touchscreen is fine on the new one. I figured the "lag" I am noticing is due to software issues such as when unlocking the phone. The hardware is much much better than it was before. These issues will probably get fixed in CM12.

Although I'm usually wary of others claiming "inside contact" knowledge, in this case I'll remain optimistic. The T-Mobile variant is overdue for an update. Absolutely nothing has come through yet since I purchased the phone on Oct 30th. I'm stock and no root/locked bootloader. At this point there's a laundry list of issues that need to be fixed including but not limited to YouTube freezing at 1440p playback and fingerprint scanner w/case on. My phone is paid outright and if T-Mobile doesn't push an update by the time the LG G5 specs are confirmed and the phone is released, AND I'm impressed, I'll have no problem selling this phone for it.

I believe the point was to related to the V10 -- articles from several sites reported that Feb 7th would mark the date that LG phones would start to receive Marshmallow. These phones included our V10 as well as the G4. Not all were going to be getting the update starting on that date, but that's the start date per these sites.

I suppose I agree, however being in the software design "Biz," and recognizing that missing Android 6 should not keep people up at night (understatement), it is far more important that LG gets it right, than if they are perceived as late. This is especially true with a phone is as highly customized as the V10. Also, I think that. 5.1.1 on the V10 is quite stable and fast overall. The upgrade promise was within 6 months of release, which would imply May at the latest. I would be OK with that- again, provided it is bug free, stable and fast.

That's my thought exactly!
Looks like they're trying to get rid of the remaining stock.
Probably means nothing but my hope is that they are going to release new products. I don't see why they would enroll into the Android P beta program just to drop the phone a few months later.
If you want to release a home device you need a customer base as big as you can get. This is one way to increase the numbers.
