why so long for security updates?
Why does it take T-Mobile so long to put out security updates? I have Galaxy S10 and last security patch level is April 1, 2022. It is August. My employer will not allow me to use my phone for wor...
Actually, you are wrong. Patches are created by manufacturer and then provided to carriers to be modified/adjusted so as to not cause problems with that specific carriers network. Once that is done, the carriers release the patch to their customers. As for it being 3 years old, that shouldn't matter. If the device is supported by the carrier, it's supported by the carrier and they should be supporting it. If they don't want to support a device any longer, then they will stop supporting it and provide notice. If a carrier only wants to support the newest phones, they won't last long. Most people don't replace their phone every year, nor should they have to. That's just silliness.
