The Mountain View, California-based tech giant already said it’s aware of the problem and is working on a fix, though it’s currently unclear how long the company will take to distribute the patch. Google didn’t go into any details regarding the nature of the issue and what caused it and it remains to be seen whether the firm does so by the time it distributes a new software package. None of the Pixel XL units are affected by the phenomenon, with their 70.1MB OTA arriving and installing on all models without any hiccups. While some owners of the smaller Pixel-series smartphone are now still running the June security patch, the company assured them that there’s no reason to be nervous as no known exploits are currently in circulation and their devices are still safe as of this writing.
The latest OTA already hit the Nokia 6 in certain territories even before Google managed to push out the images for compatible Nexus and Pixel devices, which isn’t an everyday occurrence and signals that HMD Global Oy is seemingly serious about its promise of regular software updates for new Nokia devices.
