Pixel 7 Security Update
My Pixel 7 will not receive the January 2023 security update . Tried doing it manually and no luck, have heard it's a T-Mobile issue but that's just hearsay. Heard you can just pull your sim out and...

So that only leaves something behind the scenes. Something tmo and google are hashing it out. Its got to be something that the two cant agree on. I highly suspect something feature related. I keep saying I think tmo wants something removed or blocked?
We're just going to have to wait it out. Once we do get a update. I'm pretty sure it will be a specific android build for tmo. We can pick it apart then and look for whats different.
- It’s more likely the time necessary to modify and fully test code, which is significant,
- It won’t be a specific T-Mo build for factory unlocked phones (like mine).
- It’s more likely a functional issue specific to the T-Mo network than something T-Mo wants removed or blocked.
My two cents. T-Mobile has no right to hold back security updates on unlocked phones not even purchased from T-Mobile. I opted into the beta program and I have the January 5th update. Fingerprint sensor works much better and no Bluetooth issues at all. I can use Bluetooth on any of my devices and it works as it always did on my Hyundai sonata using Android Auto. I pay T-Mobile only for data. They don't own my phone's. They did the same thing with OnePlus if any of you remember. I certainly remember security updates once every 2 months.
