Just got this 432MB patch. Stayed at October security patch. Still Android 8.0. Notice build number jumped quite a bit.

That's a good size patch!!
I love how the update info they provide is so vague & generic. :-)
Thanks for the heads-up!

1st impressions: my intelligent scan is working faster than ever even in the darkest room with no light, freaking awesome. Second, phone is snappier, no lag whatsoever. Third, I think this is just the update to allow us to join the beta for Pie.
 
Just downloaded and installed the update for my Verizon S9+ this morning
 
Thanks for posting. Didn't know it was even there! 😁 This update does indeed feel snappier and the face unlock is quick! My battery is at 50% at the end of the day. Usually it's around 25% at this time. Seems better overall!

I noticed after update when I power the screen it's brighter and that's annoying at night. You guys too? Once I log in it dims back to normal.
 
I have not noticed any variance in my screen brightness. I did clear my cache partition twice, with the hope that the update would settle in smoothly.


I have found that after 8 months with really lousy call quality, this update seems to have cleared up the issues.

-Dropped calls.
-Calls that sound like the caller has a bucket on their head.
-Dead silence during the call & you think the caller has been disconnected, but they are still there. (That one is hard to explain, it's eerie.)

All of a sudden, my phone sounds & acts like a phone. I'm holding my breath, 'knocking on wood'. I hope it doesn't revert back to the 'two tin cans & a string' sound!

Anyone else seeing these annoying popups when opening any old text messages ? I have the read receipts off in the settings but the messages app keeps asking me this on every message from different senders to turn on the read receipts. Its ok if it was a one time thing but its annoying to see on every single message thread.
Anyone else facing this issue ?

T-Mobile S9+ latest update as shown in the first post. I updated my phone last night.
