June Pixel security update delayed
Guess Tmobile is behind again with the June update for the Pixel 7 and below. Seems we went around with this before with January update. Guess we waited 10 days to get updated, sure if they would post a reason along with time frame for the update.

I wonder what would happen if you brought your unlocked phone over would they still block the updates?

Yeah. T-Mobile already have a bad reputation in regards to updates with Pixel phones. "If" they are preventing the update they should at least announce it and why.

Even though the update comes from Google. Att tmo and Verizon can say no. It's always been like this.
The last time tmo had a delay.it wa also for a big feature drop. Just like now. I'm thinking tmo is short staffed and it just takes longer.
no arguments on this one.. correct..if an issue is spotted they can shut it down until its fixed. but it’ll depend on what the problem is..the last one with the BT issues i can see having to hold it off.. everyone just thinks “cant listen to music” but in reality..it removes hands free use while driving. it didnt effect every carrier but its still an issue that must be fixed since in most states you must remain hands free while driving or its ticket time.
has to be a big enough issue to halt it..

Not the way you think. They can't free nilly say we'll delay the update. It has to be something like a bug or security flaw that affects their networks.
Also it's up to Google to point it out like they did the last time there was a delay because of it.

Untrue, and we've been through this before. Absolutely proven by pulling the tmo sim and putting on another carrier's. I can't do that. Too bad for the reddit blackout or it would be all over that. Yes, you can sideload it using adb. No, I don't want to. I can wait.
My Pixel 7 hasn’t gotten it and it’s with Verizon, while my Pixel 7 Pro on T-Mobile hasn’t gotten it either.
For the life of me Google has stated this numerous times that they STAGGER their updates. Not everyone will get it day one. Also there are various other reasons why people will not get the update other than the go to “it’s the carrier”.
The last 3 updates came late if you actually looked… Generally they come on the 5th. - nickzRoaming Rookie
I have no time to argue with you. Apparently you are unaware that Google releases all their Pixel system updates on their own site. Here.

Have a nice day.

released on the 13th to whom? to carriers to do their test before giving the ok to kick it out? so youre trying to say that carriers create the security patches? so per you TMO is the one that creates the security patch for all the devices on their network?
amd weird that im not the only one that pointed right back at Google in here lol

carriers have zero to do with security patches being kicked out..that is all on the OEM..specifically Google on this one..only people they can blame are themselves..
